Farmer’s Stepmother’s Skillful Farming

Chapter 252: Losing face

Those who are ingenious can make mooncakes at home. Those who are not good at craftsmanship and want to save money can use flour and brown sugar to make sugar cakes as mooncakes at home. Those who are not good at craftsmanship and are not afraid of spending money can go to shops to buy mooncakes.

 It’s the Mid-Autumn Festival only once a year, and when walking back and forth, you have to keep your face in mind. If you can get something good, you will get it, and you don’t mind spending so much money.

 In previous years, although there were stalls selling mooncakes in the whole town, Wei Ji was the only one who really sold them well.

Although the taste has remained unchanged for more than ten years, Wei Dayou also went to Fucheng to learn it, and this mooncake still looks more delicate than the mooncakes made by others.

This thing looks exquisite, which makes people think it is a good thing. It will give you face when you take it out. Naturally, not many people care about whether it tastes good or not.

 After all, mooncakes are all made the same way, so you can’t taste anything new.

 But this year, it’s really new.

There is a new food shop in this town called Wu Ji, and Wu Ji also sells mooncakes with a very special name, called snowskin mooncakes.

It's just that the name is rare, but the key is that it looks like this. It's also very delicate and beautiful, with white, red, yellow... very bright colors, and it tastes soft and delicious, and it doesn't feel dry or dry at all. greasy.

 More importantly, the price is one penny less per kilogram than the mooncakes I usually buy at Weiji.

The things were rare, looked good, tasted delicious, and were cheap, so of course I didn’t hesitate at all, so I gave up Wei Ji and went to Wu Ji to buy mooncakes.

 But the quantity of Wuji’s mooncakes is limited.

It's not that Wu Zhuoyuan and Su Mulan deliberately wanted to sell at a lower price this time, but the mooncakes are made by hand, so they can't be made that fast, and they can't make so many.

Although there is money to be made, Su Mulan does not want to make herself and her children too tired and panicked because of the money, so the amount is basically fixed.

The number of mooncakes is limited, first come first served. If you arrive late, they will be gone. You will have to wait a while, and there is no guarantee that we will be able to leave them for you the next day...

Because of this, people who buy snow-skin mooncakes inevitably feel a sense of superiority when they see others unable to buy them. When giving them away, they have to say, "I finally got them, but others can't buy them."

This makes people who have not bought moon cakes feel that they are losing face.

They are all people coming and going in the town. Others have them but not my own. I really can't bear it.

Ever since, in this originally ordinary town, the first shop that started queuing up early in the morning appeared.

After queuing for two days and still being unlucky enough to not buy the colorful snowskin mooncakes that I wanted, someone came up with a new idea.

 That is, buy other food from the shop.

No matter what they are, buy a bunch of them, take these things to Wu Zhuoyuan to check out, and then use them as chips to order mooncakes.

 After all, when I buy so much food, I have to give some money to save face. Regardless of how much I buy, I can always save a few pieces.

 When others saw someone doing this, they began to follow suit and started buying all kinds of food.

Anyway, Wu Ji’s food is delicious. You can buy it and eat it slowly without wasting it. It’s the festival, so it’s okay to eat more food.

Hence, Wu Ji’s recent food can be said to be sold out before noon every day.

When Su Mulan heard this, her mouth suddenly opened and she didn't close it for a long time.
