Chapter 21: Mooncake Evolution History

In the mid-autumn night, in Jinwang Mansion, lanterns were hung under the trees in the garden, and the warm yellow light shone on the robes of several people in the garden.

Feihua helped to arrange the tea, wine and fruits, and stared at the mooncakes with bright eyes.But what she was looking at with such interest was the portrait of the man printed on the moon cake.

"This man is so ugly!" The little prince, who was also staring at him, said angrily, "It should be my sister!"

Feihua silently rolled her eyes at him, feeling that it is really annoying to love her sister like her life.

The Dai Viet Dynasty has always continued a tradition, that is, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the most popular and beloved figures in the country will be selected, and their images will be printed on moon cakes for sale.

In the past, the emperor's head was printed on the moon cakes, but last year the new king suddenly announced to the world, saying that in the future, only rookies and heroes will be selected from the people as representatives.The generosity of mind was widely praised by the people for a time.

So this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, the much-anticipated balloting began one month before the festival. Unsurprisingly, Princess Jin'an was elected as the best figure in "The Moon Represents My Heart".Seeing that the artisans in the government office are preparing to make cake molds, and the Mid-Autumn Festival this year will be a big sale of princess mooncakes, the princess herself suddenly withdraws on the grounds that her fate is too bad to run for the election, so the folks have to choose another one.

Then, the popular writer Xiaoyaozi did his part.With the strong support of his book fan, Young Master Qian, the son of the richest man in the country, the government office invited the most famous painter and craftsman of the dynasty who had retired to the mountains and forests to come out of the rivers and lakes again, and created dozens of exquisite and vivid luxury moon cakes in various poses Die, and issue major workshops.Xiaoyao mooncakes are freshly baked.

Dayue's mooncakes are very delicately made, and the appearance is particularly particular, but there are relatively few types of fillings, and there are no more than four types: char siew with five kernels, egg yolk lotus seed paste, honeydew melon, and jujube paste.But these are generally not marked, and only the actions of different characters on the moon cakes are used to distinguish them.

For example, this year's Wuren Char Siu is Xiaoyaozi holding a square piece of meat, and egg yolk lotus paste is Xiaoyaozi holding a round egg yolk... and the mooncakes produced by different workshops have different shapes on the top.

So, now the table is full of Mr. Xiaoyao in various poses.Feihua looked at these mooncakes with people she admired, and was so moved that she almost shed tears.I am so happy!

"Princess, thank you so much..." Thank you for your generous withdrawal, so there are such great benefits~~~ She picked up a half-jin mooncake filled with honeydew melon, and felt that Master Xiaoyao was cutting melons on it. Really handsome.

"I really don't understand why you all like him." The little prince began to be angry again: "He is a weak scholar, like a woman, without any masculinity."

Feihua: "Women nowadays like this kind of gentle, fair, elegant and elegant man." You also like this one yourself, such as Shanzhong.

Fei Hua didn't dare to say the last sentence, she only mocked maliciously in her heart, and then said: "Little prince, if you have time, you should learn more about poetry and painting, don't just dance with knives and guns all day long, and scare the girls away gone."

"Hey Dahua, you really like that man, protect him everywhere!"

The Princess who watched them bickering coldly said suddenly, "Da Hua, go and peel the grapefruit."

Following these words, the loyal maid Fang beside her stuffed a huge pomelo into her arms.Feihua was stunned, and immediately walked to the other side with the grapefruit in her arms, and then resorted to the "Twelve Quick Knife Styles" that she had practiced so hard for duels, quickly peeled the grapefruit, cleaned the inner white skin, and opened a petal The petals are placed in front of the princess.

The princess stretched out her plain hand, and gracefully picked up a neatly peeled grapefruit. The corners of her mouth curled up somewhat attractively: "Dahua, pour tea for me."

"Oh, good." He graciously poured the tea.

"Dahua, bring another plate of grapes over here."

Seeing that beautiful smiling face, Fei Hua felt weird, but she also ran to the dining room as ordered. Unexpectedly, after finishing all this, a certain princess reclined on the soft couch again, flirting with her very lazily. She hooked her fingers: "Da Hua, come on, give me a shoulder pat."

Do you want to put on such an enchanting pose by pounding your shoulders?Princess, don't keep hindering me from watching Master Xiaoyao!And isn't Dafang just standing next to you? Just let her come by beating your shoulders and legs!

If it really doesn't work, it's better to call the little prince, haven't you seen his jealous and sad eyes almost piercing my face!

Filled with resentment, Fei Hua moved over reluctantly and stood behind the princess, and secretly rolled her eyes while beating her shoulders.

Dafang who just had some tea on the side asked, "What's wrong with your eyes."

Feihua: "..." Jiaorou replied: "Ah, the wind just made my eyes hurt..."

The little prince who ate grapefruit angrily: "People who are easily blown to tears by the wind are the most unstable. They are often tempted by beauty and so on, and they will not hesitate to abandon the principles and ethics of life, and are willing to be controlled by others."

Fei Huagao, who was betraying his integrity and beating the beauty's shoulders, sneered: "Nonsense."

The corner of the princess's mouth curled up imperceptibly.Putting one hand on the side of the head, squinting your eyes to enjoy the human body massage behind you.Half a stick of incense passed by, feeling refreshed by the superb technique of serving the bones and muscles, and feeling happy, so he also expressed his kindness and wanted to do a gift.

So she asked softly, "Dahua, which mooncake do you like best, huh?"

Feihua was startled unexpectedly by this overly gentle tone, and after she settled down, she was a little pleasantly surprised.

Did the princess realize that she should be rewarded with conscience?Ah, it's not in vain that she used her martial arts skills to give her a massage!

She looked at the table happily, but felt as if she liked all of them.After all, these are all sophisticated versions in the palace...

At this time, the little prince on the side interjected again: "The one with the balls in Xiaoyaozi is not bad."

Feihua didn't bother to talk to him.After hesitating for a while, he finally pointed to the melon stuffed mooncake that Xiaoyao eats: "I like this one the most!"

"Oh? Is that so..." During the period when someone was hesitating just now, the arc of the corner of the princess's mouth has disappeared little by little, and the long and narrow phoenix eyes glowed with a cold light, which made the big man who knew everything Fang trembled.

Sure enough, I'm still very upset...

The princess sneered, picked up the knife, and reached for the fancy mooncake.In the eyes of a certain flower that turned from eager anticipation to shock, and finally to panic and sorrow, she centered on the man's face printed on the moon cake, and cut the moon cake into several hideous pieces.

So tragic!Feihua looked at Mr. Xiaoyao whose face had been cut so hard that he couldn't see his face clearly, and was stunned and speechless.

"Here, let's try it." A princess smiled softly.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Xiaoyaozi made a tearful statement that he would no longer participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival elections.

And later, other people also withdrew for unknown reasons, and the tradition of voting for the Mid-Autumn Festival did not continue.Day Viet's mooncakes have changed year by year, and finally gradually evolved into a simple and rude style with the names of the fillings printed directly on the surface, but the types of fillings are becoming more and more diverse.

As soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival comes, the major bakery workshops are vying to launch their own original flavors, and there is a tendency of a hundred schools of thought to contend for a while.

On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival on August [-]th, family members reunite and old friends reunite.

In the joy, thousands of families look at the bright moon in the sky and eat their own mooncakes.

Princess: (enchanting laugh) How dare you stare at other people's faces in front of me, making your mouth water?

Dahua: Me, I didn't look at anyone, I was just greedy for mooncakes.

Princess: (seriously) Is that so, the punishment play this time will punish you to eat mooncakes.

Dahua: (surprised) Huh?Eat moon cakes?

Princess: Come on, bring it up.

Loyal Dafang brings food boxes: here are green pepper and pineapple fillings, pork and mango fillings, leek and mustard fillings, okra and honeydew melon fillings, watermelon and caviar fillings, and ginger and onion fillings...
