Chapter 871： 871, Mid-Autumn Mooncake

Mu Yiren couldn't bear to let her third brother be alone in the field. The Mid-Autumn Festival was originally a day for family reunion. If he was alone, how desolate it would be.

Although it is said that on such a festival, one should accompany their parents to do their filial piety, but compared to the third brother, there are three other family members on the side of the parents. Even if they are not in this room, there are still so many people around their knees. , will definitely not be deserted.

So she is not worried at all at home, and she has no worries.

But before leaving home tomorrow, Mu Yiren and Qin Mingsheng are going to invite everyone to their house for an early reunion dinner tonight.

"Then I'll let everyone know."

After listening to his wife's proposal and arrangement, Qin Mingsheng didn't have any objection. Even, he wished he could take his wife and children together, and he didn't want to be separated from their mother-in-law for too long.

With the arrangement, Muyi started to prepare in the morning. After lunch, the two couples got into the kitchen.

Since the Mid-Autumn Festival is celebrated, moon cakes are naturally indispensable, but this year, there are no such small and delicate moon cakes as later generations, let alone various patterns and flavors.

And here, the moon cakes eaten on the Mid-Autumn Festival are actually a kind of sesame noodles. A sesame cake is the size of a large bowl, and the portion is very solid.

The big round, white dough is covered with sesame seeds on both sides. As for the inside, it is made of rock sugar mixed with some ground peanuts.

Apart from this, there are no other flavors and tricks, it is very simple and rough, but even so, for many people, it is still a rare and expensive food.

In this day and age, being able to eat something sweet is a delicacy.

Therefore, the Muyi people decided to make a batch of moon cakes, which can be used as a gift when they go to the provincial capital this time.

She made two styles of mooncakes: meringue and snowskin, and meringue mooncakes were made in four flavors: egg yolk, ham, five kernels, lotus seed paste, and snowskin mooncakes were made in two flavors, purple potato and rose bean paste.

Just put together there are six flavors, this number sounds good and auspicious, put the six flavors of mooncakes in a carton, it is a mooncake gift box, you can definitely get it when you are a gift.

Qin Mingsheng helped his daughter-in-law to do some simple work, but there were still two children at home, and he couldn't keep his eyes away for too long, so he ran from both sides of the kitchen and living room.

But when he heard the list of gifts his daughter-in-law was talking about, it was quite a lot to do. He would have to cook and manage a table for the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion dinner in the evening. The workload was a bit heavy, and he was worried that his daughter-in-law would be tired.

My own daughter-in-law is the most distressed.

So in the middle of the journey, Qin Mingsheng called his mother and eldest sister to help. The old lady could help her daughter-in-law clean and prepare the ingredients for the evening in advance, while his eldest sister was in the pastry business, which was no different from making moon cakes. If she helps, it will definitely improve efficiency.

So, the group of four started to get busy.

"My God, brother and sister, is this really a moon cake?"

Qin Anxi was surprised when she saw the purple and red biscuits just made.

Mu Yiren said with a smile, "Yes, no one stipulates that there is only one kind of moon cake. I call this moon cake with snow skin. The skin is mainly made of glutinous rice, so the skin looks smooth and soft.

As for the color, you can also see it. I mixed purple sweet potato and rose juice, so the skin has color. I will put it in the refrigerator and freeze it later. When I eat it at night, the taste will change. It's cold and soft, so this is called Snowskin Mooncake. "

After listening to the answer, Qin Anxi's face was full of admiration, looking at Mu Yiren's eyes, full of admiration.

"Brother and sister, you are really amazing."

What kind of luck did the third brother of her family have, to be able to marry a woman as ingenious and intelligent as the third younger brother and sister as a wife?

Mu Yiren raised the corners of his mouth in disapproval and asked with a smile, "Sister, do you remember the steps I just did?"

"Uh, remember seven or eight points."

Qin Anxi gave a moderate answer. She didn't have the ability and dared to guarantee 100%, but she was still confident with seven or eight points.

Since starting the pastry business, she has paid more attention and research to pastries, so she also paid extra attention to the process of making them in Muyi.

"Then you will follow me later, and you must memorize every step carefully."

Hearing this, Qin Anxi was stunned for a moment, her eyes flashed slightly, and she asked tentatively, "Brother and sister, who are you?"

Muyi replied casually, "Sister, if you want to make some money this holiday season, you still have a few days to operate. Although the store in the town has not been renovated, you will be able to do it by then. You can set up a stall in front of the store to sell moon cakes.

Moreover, this moon cake is not necessarily eaten only on the Mid-Autumn Festival. It can also be sold at ordinary times, or it can be used as a gift for visiting relatives and friends.

I happen to be making a lot of mooncakes today, so just follow along and learn a few more tricks. Besides, I may not make these often in the future, it all depends on my mood. "

Since she married the third brother and had his favor, she felt that she was becoming more and more lazy, and wanted to live a simple, relaxed and free life.

As busy and single as before, and her life is only a life of academic research, she can't do it now.

In the future, she may not specifically teach the elder sister how to make cakes, so she will try to bring her to make cakes when she is doing it now. In the future, she will gradually learn to ponder and study on her own.

"Okay, thank you brother and sister, I'll discuss it with Aiguo when I look back."

Qin Anxi was very moved, and she simply agreed, and did not push it back and forth, because she had been with her third siblings for so long, and she was very clear about her character and behavior.

When she said this, it meant that she really wanted to give it, and she knew that these things were nothing special to her, and her intention was to hope that their room would have a better life.

During this period of time, she also gradually understood a truth. Only when their family members get better and have strong skills and material conditions, then the third child and his wife will be better.

Because their family is their backing.

After making the moon cakes, Mu Yiren and Qin Anxi started making dinner without stopping.

Many ingredients, Huang Qiuhua has already prepared almost in advance, Qin Anxi only needs to be responsible for handling the ingredients, and the rest is Muyi's spoon, turning the dishes into delicious dishes.
