Chapter 80 Making Moon Cakes

Seeing the sparkle in the little girl's eyes, like stars in the sky, Wei Chengye knew that something good happened to Jiang Yao, so he hurriedly walked over with a smile.

"what's up?"

"Here, as you look at these, I will introduce you what they are used for, and then you can see if these can be made." Jiang Yao said, and handed over a stack of blueprints in her hand.

"As I mentioned to you before, I have something to do during the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is to use these molds to make mooncakes."

"Maybe you don't know what a mooncake is, but it doesn't matter. When I make it successfully, I will definitely leave the first mooncake for you to taste."

Unexpectedly, the little girl was willing to put him first, and the corners of her mouth raised uncontrollably.

After quickly browsing through the drawings in Wei Chengye's hand, Wei Chengye was slightly shocked. He thought for a moment and nodded solemnly.

"When do you want these things? If you don't need them urgently, then I'll make them as slowly as possible and be as detailed as possible."

"Let me think about it. The Mid-Autumn Festival will be half a month away. In addition to the time for experiments, there is also time for publicity and tasting..."

"Second brother Wei, I need to get the mold in ten days at most, otherwise I may not be able to sell it in time, can you finish it? If it really can't, then I will find another way and find another carpenter."

However, at that time, she still has to consider how to keep the carpenter secret, otherwise her mooncakes may not be sold out in the first round, and some people will imitate them.

This was not the result she wanted to see.

Unexpectedly, the light in Wei Chengye's eyes changed slightly, and he agreed without thinking, "Ten days is enough, if it can be faster, I will send it to you as soon as possible."

I don't know why, but when Jiang Yao mentioned "no way" with a look of consideration for him, he always felt a little bit off.

He secretly swore that even if he had less hunting in these ten days, he must do Jiang Yao's things well.

Jiang Yao never imagined that because of her unconscious words, Wei Chengye didn't go hunting for three days in a row, not to mention, and was busy every day until midnight.

But when Wei Chengye brought the finished mold to Jiang Yao, Jiang Yao guessed from the blue and black under his eyes that Wei Chengye must have worked hard these few days, and while he was touched, he was also a little angry.

One couldn't hold back, and she lost her temper with Wei Chengye.

"Second brother Wei, I told you that you can do it within ten days. Why do you push yourself so hard? Are you afraid that your body will not be able to bear it?"

Although the tone was fierce, Wei Chengye could hear a strong sense of concern from the words, he slightly raised the corners of his lips, and responded to Jiang Yao in a warm voice.

"Don't worry, I know my body well. Even if I don't make these molds, I have to go hunting in the mountains. It's common to not sleep well. Just make up when I rest."

Originally thought that such words could comfort Jiang Yao, but unexpectedly, Jiang Yao would be even angrier after hearing these words.

"So what you're saying is that your body is like a mould. Where there is a loss, you can just make up for it later."

"But do you know? Some damage is irreversible. Even if it is repaired again, it will not be as good as it was at the beginning."

It was the first time that Jiang Yao was so angry when she saw something other than Jiang's family.

Wei Chengye was flustered all of a sudden, his lips opened and closed several times, he didn't know what to say, in the end he could only pat Jiang Yao's arm, and smiled flatteringly.

"What are you laughing at? Could it be that what I said was a joke?"

Leaving this sentence angrily, Jiang Yao turned around and left, not even taking the mold that Wei Chengye brought.

Knowing that Jiang Yao was really angry this time, Wei Chengye quickly reminded the mold to follow.

But before he entered the room, the door just closed opened again, Jiang Yue gave him a sympathetic look, sighed like an old man, and whispered softly.

"Second brother Wei, what are you saying that you are doing something wrong? You insisted on making my elder sister angry. It's all over now. My elder sister said that she didn't want to see you, so she asked me to come back and get the mould."

"Oh, yes, this is the money for the mold."

Seeing that Wei Chengye was going to refuse, Jiang Yue quickly straightened her expression, "My eldest sister said, if you don't charge the money, we don't want these molds either."

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yao's temper was so strong, Wei Chengye had no choice but to accept the money, and after handing over the mold, he seriously thought about how to calm down Jiang Yao.

Seeing Wei Erge so sad, Jiang Yue took the mold back into the room and handed it to her sister, then ran out again.

Jiang Yue tugged at Wei Chengye's sleeve, then bent her hand towards him, and whispered in his ear.

Hearing that the method to calm down Jiang Yao was so simple, Wei Chengye's face was full of disbelief.

"Second Brother Wei, I just told you because I see you are getting along with our family. If you don't believe me, then I'm really sad!"

"Believe me, then I'll go back and do what you said. Don't forget to tell your eldest sister."

"I will handle it."

Back in the house, Jiang Yue found that Jiang Yao had already started making mooncakes.

Seeing that Jiang Yue was about to move, Jiang Yao curled her lips and asked Jiang Yue to make mooncake crusts with her after washing her hands.

"Like this, pour peanut oil, boiled syrup, and alkaline water into the wooden basin. Be sure to pay attention to the amount of alkaline water. Too much or too little will easily affect the taste. Finally, add flour and stir with this wooden spoon. .”

"How long does it take to stop mixing?" Jiang Yue asked childishly while pouring flour like her sister.

"You see, like this one, there's no dry flour."

"Ok."

After the flour was mixed and Jiang Yao covered it with a damp cloth, she turned to making the stuffing.

Because the process of making these things is mostly stirring, thinking that the other two younger sisters are not busy at the moment, Jiang Yao called them to try it together.

After all the fillings are prepared and the crust is loosened at the beginning, Jiang Yao will demonstrate and explain to the younger sisters.

"Look, first take out a piece of filling and make a ball, and then take out the cut pie crust to wrap the filling. At this time, you must be careful, try to wrap it evenly, and don't expose the filling directly."

"In this step, we must make good use of the position of the tiger's mouth in our hands, and we can make one soon."

"Then, roll the rounded cake crust and fillings in the dry flour here, and then put them into the mold. With some force, the shape of the mooncake will come out!"

Jiang Yao's explanations and demonstrations were very clear, and the three younger sisters quickly learned how to make mooncakes.

Seeing more and more moon cakes piled up on the table, Jiang Yue felt itchy in her heart, picked up one she had just made, and was about to put it in her mouth.

Fortunately, Jiang Yao's sharp eyes saw her movement and stopped her immediately.

"You can't eat it! It's not baked yet, you can eat it after it's cooked."

Listening to the elder sister's words, Jiang Yue didn't know what to think, and she was quite disgusted.
