Chapter 188: moon cakes (2)
Chapter 188 Mooncake (2)
Wen Mingtang, who was picking up a pen and preparing to write, said "Oh" and said, "I heard! I, Bing and Tangyuan are also going to see it."
Lin Fei nodded when he heard this, and said to Wen Mingtang: "I painted the lantern lamp surface in Dali Temple, and the content of the lamp surface is the scene of Chang'e and the Jade Rabbit having a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet!"
It's Lin Fei! What to do has always been straightforward, completely different from Liu Yuan's oblique hints!
He is straightforward, so Wen Mingtang is naturally proud! Immediately, he patted his chest and promised: "I'll save it! You can't make a mistake when you cast the wooden stick!"
However, the content of this lamp surface is really novel and down-to-earth. I don't know how Lin Fei thought of it.
Seeing Wen Mingtang nod his head, Lin Fei said "hmm", turned and left.
After Lin Fei left, Yu Jijiu, who was peeling sugar and stir-fried chestnuts, glanced at Lin Fei who had left, looked at Wen Mingtang and said, "When he asked you if you knew about the Lantern Festival, I was taken aback. !"
Wen Mingtang paused for a while, and asked in puzzlement, "What's wrong?"
Yu Jijiu squinted at her: "On the day of Mount Li, he ran up the mountain to look for you, didn't he?"
It was he who hosted the banquet, how could he not know what happened?
"For ordinary men, if they can go to Lishan specifically for a woman and ask her if she knows about the lantern festival, they are probably interested in her and want to meet up to watch the lantern." Yu Jijiu looked like someone who had come here. He stroked his beard, "But you, Lin Shaoqing... uh, I went to Lishan for a case, and I specifically asked if I knew about the lantern festival, but to get people to vote for the lantern I drew!"
Speaking of this, Yu Jijiu couldn't help shaking his head: "I didn't expect Lin Shaoqing, you, to do such a thing with that otherworldly face!"
When Tang Yuan heard this, he quickly retorted: "Who said that Lin Shaoqing doesn't eat fireworks in the world? We Lin Shaoqing eat a lot, such as salivating chicken, fried chestnuts in sugar, roasted pork with chestnuts, hot dry noodles, small pot rice noodles, braised duck products ..."
Listening to the glutinous rice **** reporting the names of a bunch of dishes as if they were reporting the names of the dishes, it really made my mouth water!
Yu Jijiu threw a chestnut shell over and scolded with a smile: "Stop talking! Besides, I'm going to be hungry again!"
The glutinous rice **** grimaced towards Yu Jijiu, took it away when it was ready, and then looked down at the contents of the mooncake gift box Wen Mingtang had drawn up.
The mold of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum is used to make Cantonese-style mooncakes: for the choice of fillings, Wen Mingtang chose three common fillings: red beans, jujube paste, and egg yolk lotus seed paste, but at the same time prepared some Mochi, ready to add some tricks to the stuffing.
The set of molds with different shapes of peanuts and persimmons are used to make snow skin mooncakes, and the fillings are prepared to make custard cream, which is a new idea for everyone to taste.
Finally, there is the most common Su-style mooncake in Dayong. Wen Mingtang prepared two fillings, pork meat and egg yolk pork meat, but he planned to make this again on the day when the mooncakes were distributed.
Su-style mooncakes aside, Cantonese-style mooncakes and ice-skin mooncakes are the first time they have appeared in Darong, and they have never seen them before. Wen Mingtang must spend more time teaching A Bing how to use glutinous rice balls.
So two days in advance, Wen Mingtang started making mooncakes. During the period, the fragrance of the oven of moon cakes came out of the "oven" from time to time, which really made everyone in Dali Temple greedy!
But this time, Ji Caimai stood firmly by the sidelines, and even refused to give the others a taste of the leaked and broken ones in advance. It's really hateful!
On the day of Mid-Autumn Festival, the entire Yamen of Darong will be on holiday, so the mooncakes were not officially placed on the table until the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, when everyone finished eating.
Suzhou-style mooncakes, Cantonese-style mooncakes and ice-skin mooncakes are placed in bamboo baskets for everyone to choose, and each person can get two of each kind. If you want to try everything, and don't choose to share the food with others, you have to go to Ji Caimai to buy it separately.
But if you find it troublesome and don’t care about money during the festival, you can buy the mooncake gift box directly.
Looking at the specially carved gift box, which was comparable to the restaurants outside, Liu Yuan, who had received the mooncake, just glanced at it, and instinctively felt a subtle heartache: Look at the gift box that took so much effort to make, and you know the mooncake. Gift boxes don't come cheap! When I asked about the price, it was indeed similar to the mooncake gift boxes sold by restaurants like Hongyanlou outside.
Just as he was lamenting the high price of the mooncake gift box, Yu Jijiu, a familiar face, brought someone over to pick up the gift box. Seeing the arrogance of those handymen carrying four or five gift boxes each, Liu Yuan couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, Without waiting for him to be emotional, he saw Yu Jijiu stroking his beard, looking like he had picked up a big deal, and said happily: "I watched Master Wen make mooncakes that day, so I hurriedly asked the steward at home to return the gift box ordered by Hongyanlou ! Sure enough, compared to the few mooncakes in a gift box in Hongyan Building, Master Wen's here is more than doubled! It's really a bargain!"
Liu Yuan: "..."
Yu Jijiu's emotion is really amazing... Hey! Fortunately, there are very few big customers like Yu Jijiu after all, and most of them are colleagues like him who hesitated and hesitated before buying a box.
It's the holidays! Always more generous than usual!
The mooncake gift box sold faster than Ji Caimai and Wen Mingtang imagined. Before the holiday, most of them were bought by everyone in Dali Temple and some regular customers.
When everyone was almost gone, there was only a small half of the mooncake gift box left. Zhao You and Lin Fei ordered over by stepping on the closed door of the public kitchen.
Looking at the half of the mooncake gift box that hadn't been bought, Zhao Youdang broke his fingers, turned to Lin Fei and said, "Lin Shaoqing, I'm afraid the family won't be able to buy so many mooncakes! Isn't the extra mooncakes a waste? ?”
Ji Caimai, who was making an abacus, couldn't help but touch his forehead when he heard this worry. He sighed and said, "Officer Zhao, don't worry, I'm afraid these gift boxes will be sold out before noon tomorrow!"
Mid-Autumn Festival will inevitably attract a wave of new customers and repeat customers, so why worry about this? When Ji Caimai said this, his tone was firm, obviously he was extremely confident in the mooncakes made by the public chef this time.
This confidence is not without reason.
Ruyu Jijiu and other high-volume customers who buy more don't have to wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival to eat. When they bring the mooncake gift box home, the family will immediately surround it.
"I ate half a bowl of rice on purpose today, and the moon cakes in my stomach are waiting for Anan to bring back!" It was his old lady who said this. He will not be polite to the juniors at all.
Yu Jijiu twitched the corners of his mouth, looked away from his old mother, and lined up next to him were his wife, his two sons, two daughters, and his useless younger brother.
This group of people are of different ages, but without exception, they are much rounder than the previous days.
At this time, everyone's eyes fell on the moon cake gift box in his hand, and they signaled him to open it quickly with their eyes: so that everyone can eat moon cakes in advance and have an early Mid-Autumn Festival!
