Travel through the 70s, marry the king of soldiers, and become the richest man with space

Grandma Yan took the necessary things to the living room, Sister Liu continued to bake mooncakes in the kitchen, and Song Fuyu led everyone to start tinkering with packaging.

"Zi Yuan, go to the kitchen and bring out the cooled mooncakes, and also bring out some frozen ones from the refrigerator."

When he entered the kitchen, everyone's eyes were fixed on his back. After he came out, their eyes instantly focused on the mooncakes.

"Come over and cut it open and taste it. It's so fragrant."

The moment they took it out of the oven, they were already a little impatient. If Xiao Yu hadn't said it was very hot and would be bad for the esophagus, they would have wanted to try it at that time.

"This snowskin mooncake really lives up to its name. It's crystal clear and looks like a work of art. You can't bear to eat it just by looking at it."

"This one has just been taken out of the refrigerator and is hard. It needs to rest for another half an hour before eating. Let's try the traditional dough mooncakes first."

Song Fuyu picked out three-month cakes from the plate.

This time, there are three flavors of traditional mooncakes, bean paste filling, egg yolk filling and the long-lasting five-nut mooncake. Snowskin mooncakes only contain red bean and mung bean fillings.

There were exactly eight people in the living room at this time. They had just finished lunch, and eating one whole for each person was too much, so she went back and forth a few times and cut the mooncake into eight small pieces with a knife.

After she cut the first one open, the two old men picked up a small piece and put it in their mouths without her asking.

"fragrant!"

"It's so delicious!"

“It’s much more delicious than the ones sold by supply and marketing cooperatives!”

Her original intention of making mooncakes was that she wanted to give them to others, and the most important thing was that the mooncakes from the supply and marketing cooperative only had one flavor. Not to mention it’s expensive, the texture is hard and not very tasty. Taking a bite feels like you need to use all your strength to chew it.

The elderly man's teeth are not very good, so naturally he doesn't like him.

"Leave it for another day or two until the oil in the mooncakes recovers, and the taste will be better."

All the three-month cakes were cut, and she first took a piece of egg-yolk mooncake and put it into her mouth.

This is her favorite flavor and she has to make it by herself every year. The reason is that the egg yolks inside the egg yolk mooncakes bought outside are really getting smaller and smaller. If you make it yourself, you can choose a larger egg yolk. If it’s still too small, just put in two!

"It's already delicious like this. If I hadn't just finished lunch, my stomach is a little full, and I really want to eat the whole thing."

After Mr. Jin finished speaking, Grandpa Yan immediately became proud.

"Hehe, luckily I'm smart and I deliberately ate less for lunch just now."

Xiao Yu's food never tastes bad, so after lunch, he only ate about sixty-seven percent full. He is not like that reckless man like Lao Jintou, who eats until it reaches his throat.

"You're an old man, you're so mean when it comes to eating."

"You are an old man. What do you mean by playing tricks on me? I am here to keep my health!"

"Xiao Yu said that eating until you are [-]% full at every meal is better for your body!"

"You are uneducated, you don't understand!"

Two old men with a combined age of over 150 years old really start fighting whenever they disagree. As long as the two of them stay in the same space, they can quarrel hundreds of times a day.

"Grandpas, how about we stop arguing later and get down to business first?"

"Our Yan family are all educated people, so I don't want to argue with him."

"Humph!"

"I don't know a few Chinese characters, but I still have the nerve to say that I am a cultural person, and my face is thicker than the walls of the Forbidden City."

Seeing that everyone else was waiting for them to finish, the two of them were embarrassed to continue bickering, and stopped after one of them said something.

"Xiao Yu, just tell us what we want to do, and we will listen to you."

"Zi Yuan and Uncle Wu, you two are responsible for cutting the kraft paper and colored paper into square sizes."

"Two grandpas, your calligraphy skills are among the best in the whole compound, so you two are responsible for writing words on the colored paper. You can write idioms such as family happiness, flowers, full moon, good luck... , it’s up to you to decide what to write.”

After being praised like this by her, the two old men's interest immediately increased greatly, urging Yan Ziyuan and Wu Xingmin to cut paper quickly, so that they could show off their skills.

"Grandma, Mom, let's wrap some individual mooncakes, and then wrap some two or four in groups. There are no requirements, just wrap them tightly."

Among them, Yan Mu was the fastest and best.

When I was sent to the army as a team doctor, I often packed medicine packets for patients. I could fold the paper packets with my eyes closed.

All day long, they were busy around the mooncakes.

"It's been a long time since I've had this feeling of being surrounded by sweet smells."

"Yeah, even though I haven't stopped, I'm in a really good mood. Maybe it's the sense of fulfillment that Xiao Yu often talks about."

"There are still two days until the Mid-Autumn Festival. If you want, I can continue to take you to make other pastries in the next two days. But it doesn't have to be like making mooncakes today. It will take a whole day. We can make it more relaxed. "

"Okay, your grandma Jin and I will come over to play after breakfast tomorrow."

Grandpa Yan rolled his eyes at this shameless person. He really didn't want to complain about Lao Jintou anymore.

When Yan's father returned home from the army, he smelled a strong and sweet smell before he entered the house. When he entered the house, it was even more fragrant.

"What delicious food did you cook at home today? Why does it smell so good?"

"Changsheng, you came back at the perfect time. You came back just after we finished wrapping the mooncakes."

"Are there mooncakes all on the table?"

When I walked into the living room, I felt that this small area was surrounded by mooncakes. Wrapped mooncakes were placed everywhere, and there were cut pieces of kraft paper and calligraphy brushes and ink on the coffee table.

"This is all the fruit of our work all day today. Come and try it. It will definitely taste better than any piece you have ever eaten before."

Mother Yan took a small piece of five-nut mooncake and handed it over.

The father and son of the Yan family have similar tastes, and without exception, they don't like eating overly sweet food. In order to cater to their common tastes, Song Fuyu deliberately added less sugar and maintained the original flavor of the nut fillings in the five-nut mooncakes.

"Not bad, it's really delicious."

"Is this Xiao Yu's idea again?"

After all, Grandma Yan and Mother Yan can only cook the most common home-cooked dishes. After Sister Liu was born in the family, they cooked less often, and their cooking skills also declined rapidly. Now they have dropped to the point where they can barely cook enough to eat.

"Isn't that right? Xiaoyu's cooking is delicious and she also likes to tinker with some fresh food, which has given us a lot of experience."

"Besides this, there are snow-skin mooncakes in the refrigerator. I'll defrost one for you to try later."

I sorted the mooncakes into different flavors, took out the ones for others and put them away, and after finishing them all, I only had less than a hundred left at home.

Except for Brother Yan who is not in the capital, the other brothers and sisters also have to give some to them. In total, the mooncakes made today are not too many.

Fortunately, I still have time in the next two days, so I can make other delicious things.

The old couple of the Jin family got up to go home after dinner at Yan's house.

"Old Jintou, I must bring you two rations tomorrow, otherwise you will never be able to come in tomorrow!"

"Look how stingy you are!"

"Don't worry, tell Mrs. Liu not to buy vegetables tomorrow. Not only will we bring you rations, but we will also buy the vegetables for you. We won't take advantage of you at all."

"You are sensible!"
