Seeking Happiness Chapter 112: Moon cakes

In the Pinzhuxuan, Xianxin was silently facing the two sales deeds and seventeen taels of silver placed on the table.

The disguised scars on her face have been washed away by Ji Danqing with water, and her original appearance is still restored, except that her husky voice was excessively screaming, and she poured a lot of ice water. The cause will be unable to recover for a while, and she needs to drink more herbal tea that Ji Danqing formulated for her to moisturize her throat.

Shu Huan sat down, looked at her, didn't say a word, only pushed the bargaining contract and silver in front of her.

"Milk..." After she came back, she cried loudly, her voice became more hoarse, and she had to speak very hard to make a little voice. She pushed those things back with her backhand: "I said I want to stay here, don't drive me away."

Shu Huan looked at her seriously and saw that she didn't hesitate at all on her face, so he nodded, picked up the deed from the gamblers, and tore it on the spot. She slipped into the sleeves, but the silver on the table, she did not move, only said: "You can keep the silver, there is no one to rely on at home, but you will have a long road ahead. Keep it close. Right."

"I can't..." Taste still wanted to refuse, Gu Xiran pouring water from the teapot next to him: "Let you keep it and keep it. These money is honored by those gamblers and your shameless uncle, can it be you Are you embarrassed to take it?"

"It's not..." shook his head appreciatively.

Shu Huan raised his hand and dialed the silver: "Actually, the money they used to cheat your family back then is the dowry your father left for you. Put it away."

She said that she had no more words for the pleasure, so she had to collect the money in tears, turned around and knelt in front of them, knocked her head, and then stood up and said: "My father said that I don't want to thank you. I will remember the kindness of the second master and grandma in my heart."

Shu Huan shook his head and smiled: "It's just a matter of raising your hand. You don't need to put it in your heart. You just need to take care of yourself when you follow me. If you want to leave in the future, you can use five taels of silver to redeem the deed. I am not at a loss if I go."

Thanks to know that Shu Huan is half a joke, half thinking about it for her, so that she should not regard it as too much kindness, but only as a transaction between silver and goods. Under the cold and mutually beneficial relationship, in fact, It was enthusiasm that covered it. She only felt her heart warm, and she couldn't help laughing with tears.

In a blink of an eye, autumn is approaching. On this day, Shu Huan saw the purchase order handed in by the steward of the other hospital. It said ten boxes of exquisite mooncakes and a hundred mooncakes in the crowd. I couldn't help but wonder how exquisite the mooncakes were. , And what is the difference between the moon cakes that are scattered to the crowd.

Naturally, Gu Xiran didn’t know as much as she did, so Shu Huan had to ask about the beauty. The beauty is only when her mother’s family is poor, and she usually doesn’t buy these foods for the festival during the holidays. What's more, even if she buys it, she may not get it in turn. She ate it, feeling very sympathetic in her heart, and slowly replied: "Those moon cakes in the masses are nothing but fillings made of sugar and pastry. Those in boxes are mostly filled with fruit fillings."

She said that she laughed: "I don't know what kind of fruit filling the second master and grandma like to eat. It's better to pick up the one you love and prepare for it."

Shu Huan asked a few more words, only to realize that the moon cakes here are different from the ones she had eaten before. They don’t have the rosin-flavored meringue, they are just steamed cakes with stuffing, but they are more refined. , Qiaojie is gratifying, and there are many people buying.

Looking down for a moment, Shu Huan smiled and said, "It's stuffed with jujube mud, I want this."

The beautiful scenery just wanted to spread the word, and saw Gu Xiran taking a nap, lazily leaning on the door frame of the inner room and laughing: "I don't like sweets, I want egg yolk mooncakes."

"Second Lord, do you have this kind of stuffing?" The scenery was extremely surprised.

Shu Huan gave him a funny look. She still wants to eat ice cream mooncakes, but there won't be any here, but it also gave her an idea. It's better to make some mooncakes and eat them yourself. It's nostalgic.

It's just that she doesn't understand cooking at all, and she doesn't know the modern methods of mooncakes, so she can only ask Du's mother to see if she can make something similar.

Waiting for Gu Xiran to drank two cups of tea, and went out to find Ji Danqing's free time for advice, Shu Huan went to discuss with Du's mother. When she heard that she wanted to make mooncakes by herself, Du's mother was also overjoyed and said with a smile: "This It’s okay. In the past, my family’s situation was not so outdated. I have made and sold it. It’s just this mooncake filled with egg yolk, but I’ve never heard of it."

"It's the kind wrapped in salted egg yolk." Shu Huan said, and described in detail the Soviet-style mooncakes she had eaten before. After hearing Du Mu hesitated for a while, she finally hesitated: " I have never seen such a practice, but I can try it."

Just try it. Anyway, everything in the kitchen of the other courtyard is complete. It's just that Du Mu did it twice in a row, and the final one, whether it is appearance or taste, is still biased towards mooncakes of this age, Shu Huan had to sigh and give up.

Doing something that I’m not good at, really has a high chance of failure, not to mention just relying on descriptions. It’s really embarrassing for Du’s mother to do the same thing, but it’s worthy of comfort to call out the beauty and appreciation. They tasted it, but they praised that the taste of the moon cake was a little different from what they had eaten before, but it felt fresh and unique.

There is a pastry chef in the other yard. When they tried to make mooncakes, they kept watching with great interest. Seeing that Shu Huan was planning to give up not making them, she suddenly interjected: "Listen to the milk. , It's like a puff pastry, why don't you let me try it?"

Shu Huan only picked up the more traditional Soviet-style mooncakes for Du’s mother to try. She felt that it could be made with the kitchen utensils and ingredients of this era, but she forgot Du’s family background and she was good at home cooking. In fact, it’s not very good at delicate food like pastries. When the chef said, he immediately said: "Okay, you can try it"

This cook is different from Du Mu. It comes quickly with the shortbread noodles. The technique is dexterous and skillful. Shu Huan recalls the better-tasting fillings in the Soviet-style mooncakes and talks about it in detail. The chef listened, and finally made an impromptu creation. He taught the maids to pick ready-made sweet-scented osmanthus in the garden, mix them with sweet-sweet and shortbread, and another mooncake filled with sweet-scented sweet-scented osmanthus, but let the kitchen save some sugar and oil. When it is finished, it is already seventy-seven similar in appearance, and it is full of fragrance in the mouth without feeling too greasy.

Seeing that Shu Huan nodded silently after tasting the moon cake, she picked up a piece of beauty curiously, and then took a bite. She felt that it tasted much better than the steamed moon cake, and she couldn’t help laughing: "This is what the milk said. Huh?"

Shu Huan groaned: "There are some differences, but it's almost there."

It’s just that the moon cakes she remembers are not considered moon cakes for people who are used to steaming moon cakes here. At best, they can only be regarded as new cakes that look like moon cakes, but what does it matter? She just wanted to taste the memories, and Gu Xiran must have such expectations.

Thinking of this, she smiled again and said to the cook: "Let's make this kind of pastry in autumn. Just make all the fillings I mentioned earlier."

The beautiful scenery said on the side: "Er Ye and Nai don’t go back to celebrate the festival. It’s better to make a copy first and send it to the house to teach Taijun and the old lady to taste it. It’s a filial piety~IndoMTL.com~ So." Shu Huan nodded and laughed: "You reminded me that there are many people in my family, so I should make more of everything. Separate different fillings into a box and send them back cleanly."

She said that she asked Meijing to give the kitchen half a reward. When she went out of the kitchen, she suddenly remembered something, and then asked the name of the kitchen. She kept it in her heart, thinking about waiting for the Gu family to eat this mooncake. Later, if she still finds it delicious, she can discuss with Gu Xiran to see if she can open a pastry shop, which is also a way to make money.
