Final Yao choked on the fruit wine that was handed to his mouth, patted his chest and coughed.

Nuwa patted him twice, and finally Yao came back, blushing and said, "Sister, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Nuwa told Zhong Yao everything that happened that day, he hesitated for a while, and asked back, "Is there anything strange?"

No matter how you look at it, it was just Taichu kindly helping him, afraid that he would fall to the ground.

Although that guy sometimes doesn't care too much about the distance, Zhong Yao can feel that none of his actions deliberately create an ambiguous atmosphere.

Nu Wa said this, probably because she paid too much attention to him, so she felt that Tai Chu coveted his younger brother.

"Okay then." The guess was denied, and Nu Wa curled her lips, but she didn't doubt the words of the last line.

Seeing that she was unhappy, Mo Yao rolled his eyes, and when his eyes fell on the full moon above the sky, he suddenly had a good idea: "Okay, I haven't made anything for a long time, and it just so happens that I have a new body this time. , let’s make mooncakes.”

"Moon cake?" Nuwa raised her eyebrows, her attention was indeed drawn away.

Final Yao rolled up his sleeves and went into the room to prepare materials.

It stands to reason that if you make moon cakes, you must make moon cakes with five kernels. However, when you were young, you ate too much five-nut mooncakes, so you chose to make red bean paste, which is sweet and just suitable for Nuwa's taste. .

Before that, he had to milk some milk.Naturally, there were no cows in Honghuang. It was created by Zhong Yao who described the appearance of cows to Nuwa, and then emphasized that it could produce something like goat milk.

Dairy cows are black and white cows. After a certain period of breeding, they can already produce a certain amount of milk.

After milking the milk, Zhong Yao went to prepare other materials.Flour, Sugar, Peanut Oil and depending on water.These are used to make mooncake skins.

The sight water is made with alkaline water. With the experience of making noodles last time, Zhong Yao quickly adjusted the sight water according to the proportion.

Properly mix the water, peanut oil and sugar together, and stir quickly with chopsticks.Final Yao has a serious expression and keeps moving his hands.The three ingredients were quickly mixed evenly under his hands. He poured the prepared flour into the ingredients, added milk, and then stirred with a wooden shovel. After the water and flour were mixed together, Mo Yao stirred the flour. Evenly, after kneading into a ball, take out the red beans that have been soaked before.

The red beans are full of granules, pour them all into the pot, add water and boil until the red beans are soft, then use a stone mill to grind the red bean paste, then fry the red bean paste and vegetable oil with sugar, the filling is ready up.

After being placed, the skin of the mooncakes was smooth and a little sticky when pinched. Finally, Yao pulled them into small white balls, stuffed two spoonfuls of red bean paste into them, rolled them up, and pressed them into the molds prepared at the beginning.

The mold was made by Zhong Yao himself, with lace engraved on the outside, and an oval hole was pulled out, and two "red beans" were engraved on the inside, indicating that this is the mold used to make mooncakes filled with red bean paste.

A mooncake is rolled with a layer of cornstarch, and then stuffed into the template. Finally, like playing a hamster, use the palm of your hand to flatten the mooncake skin exposed outside the mold.

After all the mooncakes were stuffed into the molds, Zhong Yao took the molds and turned them upside down on the chopping board, and each of the slightly yellow raw mooncakes took shape.

Zhong Yao took a brush and brushed a layer of egg wash on the surface of the mooncakes, and placed them in the oven.

It is said to be an oven, but it is actually an oven made of clay in the end, and a heating array is placed outside, which can also serve as an oven for later generations.

As time passed, Zhong Yao calculated the temperature of the formation, and after confirming that the mooncakes were baked, he took the stone tray out of the oven.

The surface of the mooncake after returning the oil was golden and full. When Zhong Yao pressed his fingers lightly on it, his white fingertips were immediately covered with a layer of oil.But he wasn't worried that the mooncake would taste greasy.

This kind of moon cake tastes crispy and soft, and with sweet bean paste filling, it is definitely used to adjust the mood occasionally.

"Here we come!" Final Yao walked to the courtyard with the mooncake in his hand.

He considered Nuwa's situation, and the moon cakes were of a more delicate and compact type. The white jade plate was covered with cut lotus leaves, and the golden moon cakes were placed on the lotus leaves, which looked cute and appetizing.

Nu Wa twisted a piece and handed it to her mouth, and took a light bite.The skin of the mooncake melts in the mouth, followed by the sweet and glutinous red bean paste.The mellow taste melted on the tip of the tongue, Nuwa squinted her eyes, apparently the sweetness had washed away the unpleasantness just now.

"This is the mooncake, it's really good." Nuwa smiled and pinched his cheek.

"Moon cakes represent reunion." Final Yao held the moon cakes and said, "I eat moon cakes together because my family is reunited. Now that I have a body, it is another kind of reunion."

In the past, Zhong Yao ate mooncakes purely because he wanted to eat them and would buy some online, but he didn’t think he had any other meanings.

Now in this world, he understands.

Final Yao packed up the remaining mooncakes and sent them to Fuxi, and then returned to the courtyard.

Nuwa recently had some thoughts about sanctification, so she left after chatting with him for a few words.Final Yao looked at the bright moon in the sky.

The full moon hangs high above the sky, and faintly, Mo Yao seems to see a figure dancing above, with a graceful figure, but he can't see the real appearance clearly.

Mo Yao rubbed his eyes, but when he looked again, there was nothing.

"Did you read it wrong?" Mo Yao muttered to himself.

He gradually became sleepy, covered his mouth and fell asleep.In the hazy moonlight.Suddenly, a ray of light condensed into a line and projected onto the stone table in front of Final Yao, and gradually, a figure slid down on the white line.Ping Ping Tingting, floating like a fairy.Soon, this figure slid down onto the... stone table next to Final Yao.

The light in the courtyard flickered, reflecting the faces of people.She has an extremely clear and elegant face, and her frowns and smiles are as soft and beautiful as moonlight.At this time, the woman picked up a piece of moon cake and whispered: "It looks delicious, but it's not good to eat other people's things casually."

Mo Yao sensed that something was wrong, and opened one eye slightly, and what he saw was a female thief facing his moon cake and scratching her hair in distress.

"Oh, but they say this is called a moon cake. If you bring the moon, I am the owner of the moon, so it's not too much to eat." After making up a completely meaningless sentence, the woman picked up a piece of moon cake and stuffed it into it. mouth, and then rolled his eyes happily.

"Is it delicious?" Zhong Yao asked behind her.

"Delicious." The woman nodded again and again, and suddenly realized something was wrong. She turned around in horror and looked at the last line in front of her who was looking at him with her arms folded. I couldn't help it."

She hugged her arm aggrievedly, and sighed: "I'm sorry. I can exchange something with you."

Zhong Yao would not be angry for a piece of moon cake, but Honghuang still has such a simple guy, anyway, don’t take what comes for nothing, he asked: "What do you want to exchange with me?"

The woman spread out her right hand, and a delicate and small jade bottle appeared in her palm: "This is wine made from laurel flowers. It's delicious. Would you like to try it?"

Laurel, flew down from the moon again.

Final Yao wondered, and asked inquiringly, "Are you Chang'e?"

"Who is Chang'e?" The woman was extremely dissatisfied at being mistaken, "I am Chang Xi, the owner of the Moon Palace."

The final line was strange: "Isn't there a Chang'e in the Moon Palace?"

"Of course not. I, Chang Xi, am the only one in the entire Moon Palace." Chang Xi's proud little neck drooped in frustration.She is the only one in the Moon Palace, which is cold and boring.

She is Chang Xi, born with the lunar star, while enjoying everything brought by the moon palace, she cannot leave the moon palace.

"It's so miserable." Final Yao sighed.

"Even if I'm really miserable, don't tell me about this kind of thing, okay?" Chang Xi glared at him, and then there was some expectation in his eyes, "But who do you think Chang'e is? Here, play with her."

She longed so badly for a playmate.Obviously the Lunar star is opposite to the Sun star, but Xi He, Tai Yi, and Di Jun were born in the Sun star.But Lunar Star is the only one.

"Even you don't know, then Chang'e really doesn't exist." Final Yao said.

The light in Chang Xi's eyes dimmed.She is quite familiar with her appearance. When he was alone before, he was also in this lonely state. Fortunately, he had a brother, family and friends later.

"I'll tell you the story of Chang'e. I heard it from other sources. This mooncake is also related to her story."

Chang Xi's eyes lit up, he stuffed another mooncake into his mouth, and nodded in satisfaction.

"It is rumored that there is a hero named Houyi among the people... Faced with the threat of Pengmeng, Chang'e swallowed the elixir. When Houyi found something wrong and came back, his wife was forced to fly to the moon palace. To commemorate Chang'e, Hou Yi and the people put down Chang'e's favorite food and worshiped her in front of the moon. This moon cake contains a good wish for the reunion of relatives."

Chang Xi seems to be quite innocent, so her three views will be damaged, so the final line discarded several other versions, including Chang'e's private possession and Hou Yi's infidelity.

What's more, the first version is also the version that Final Yao first heard, a beautiful version in the textbook.

There was a sobbing sound nearby.

Chang Xi covered her cheeks, her tears were all over the veil: "The little sun is so pitiful, so are Chang'e and Houyi. If there really is Chang'e, I will definitely allow her to go down and meet Houyi."

Final Yao can't laugh or cry.Maybe there will be Chang'e and Houyi in future generations. I hope that the story they tell will not be too different from my own.

Chang Xi was satisfied after listening to the story, and when he left, he left a laurel tree and a few bottles of sweet-scented osmanthus wine for Final Yao.

Laurel trees and sweet-scented osmanthus wine are good things, so when Chang Xi sneaked a few mooncakes away, Mo Yao just turned a blind eye and closed his eyes, as if he didn't see it.

On the other side, Styx waited thousands of times, and finally received the schedule for the final day sent by Kunpeng.

"Planting trees, planting grass, weeding, grinding grain, killing chickens, butchering pigs, cooking food, practicing kung fu for two hours, cooking for three hours, what the hell is this!" Styx threw down the bamboo slips in his hand in anger, and died. After staring at the bamboo slips for a long time, I finally picked them up, "Forget it, try it. Come!"

The blood river was slightly turbulent, and a figure came out, but it was Indra, one of the four great demon generals under Styx.

The author has something to say: my relatives are seriously ill, and the author needs to be with me for the last period of time. Recently, I can only write as much as possible, try to write three days a day.I really can't write a copy to ask for leave.Wait until the return day is [-]th and [-]th.Feel sorry.
