She gave birth to three daughters in a row, and was kicked out by her mother-in-law who favored boys

On the second day, with the joint efforts of the whole family, the mooncakes were finally made.

Not to mention the two children, even Wen Wuyan excitedly praised her, "Qingqing, you are amazing. You really did it."

Erhua looked at the golden round mooncakes and smelled the fragrance. She couldn't help wiping her saliva and said, "Mom, this is the mooncake we made. It smells so good."

slap~

Dahua slapped Erhua on the back and looked at her, "Don't talk."

Her subtext is that as soon as you speak, mother will give us something to eat.

Erhua didn't think too much about it, and she argued aggrievedly, "Sister, it is true. This smells so good."

"You still said."

Erhua was glared at by her sister and finally stopped talking.

Gu Qingqing grabbed a freshly baked mooncake and cut it in half, shouting, "It's hot, don't use your hands, use your clothes, hurry up, heat it!"

Erhua originally stretched her hand in the air, and when she saw her sister holding the corner of her clothes to push them open, she quickly followed suit.

Gu Qingqing hurriedly threw the mooncake in her hand into their pockets and screamed in pain from the heat. "It's so hot, so hot. You guys eat it later. It's very hot now." As she spoke, she immediately touched her earlobes with both hands.

"Mom, aren't we going to take this to town to sell?" Dahua asked in a low voice, looking down at the half-warm mooncake in her pocket.

"We are going to sell it, but don't we have to taste it before we sell it? We can't make it ourselves and we can't even describe what it tastes like."

Gu Qingqing was about to reach out to take the mooncakes from the pot, but Wen Wuyan quietly handed her a bamboo clip and stopped her, "Use this."

Gu Qingqing was stunned. Hiss, why didn’t she think of it just now?

Is it true that you are what you eat? Could it be that I ate too much pig head last night?

Wen Wuyan didn’t know what she was thinking, he just saw her staring with her round eyes, her little mouth slightly open, and her confused look was very cute.

Wen Wuyan spoke again, unconsciously with a thicker smile on his face, "Can this be used?"

Gu Qingqing suddenly came back to her senses and coughed to cover up her stupid behavior. "It can be used just barely."

After Gu Qingqing finished speaking, she took the tongs handed over by Wen Wuyan and picked out all the remaining eight in the pot.

Because it is a small frying pan, only nine mooncakes can fit in one pan, and the size of the mooncakes is about the same as in the previous life.

The key point is that the frying pan was borrowed from Uncle Zhang He's house. Not many households in the village have a frying pan, so Gu Qingqing and the others naturally don't have one either.

Put the mooncakes that need to be baked into the pan, and then cover it with a large round iron pot covered with mud on the bottom.

Mud is pasted on the bottom of the pot to keep it warm. In this way, the frying pan can bake the mooncake bottom, and the covered iron pot can bake the mooncake top while keeping it warm.

Gu Qingqing looked at Dahua and Erhua who were laughing loudly after taking a small bite, and couldn't help but asked with a smile, "Is it delicious?"

The two were so burned that they had no time to speak and could only nod their heads.

"If it's too hot, let it cool down before eating. No one will snatch it away from you." Gu Qingqing said as she took one out of the ceramic basin and cut it into two again.

The other half was handed to Wen Wuyan, who was in charge of the fire, "You try it too."

In Gu Qingqing's impression, freshly made mooncakes are not delicious. As the old saying goes, it is because the oil has not been recovered.

However, after she took a bite of the hot mooncake, she found that it tasted pretty good.

Peanut kernels, walnut kernels, sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds mixed together exude a unique aroma.

"Qingqing, what you cooked is delicious and fragrant. I have never eaten such a fragrant mooncake." Wen Wuyan on the side expressed his opinion first.

Dahua and Erhua next to them nodded.

Gu Qingqing gave him a look that said 'you know what's good'.

Wen Wuyan thought for a moment and asked, "How much can we get if we take this to the town to sell it?"

After thinking carefully, Gu Qingqing said, "The Jinji store in town charges 20 cents for each piece of lard, sugar and walnut kernels. We have the same amount of lard and sugar, and it has five-kernel filling. Is 30 cents a piece not too much?"

Cough cough cough, cough!

Wen Wuyan couldn't help coughing when he heard this.

Tsk tsk tsk, look at his two darling daughters, when they saw their daddy coughing, one was busy scooping water, and the other was busy going over to show concern.

"I, cough cough, I'm fine!" Wen Wuyan waved his hand to stop Erhua who was trying to help him calm down.

A pair of sparkling eyes looked at Gu Qingqing and asked in disbelief, "Qingqing, you said a mooncake sells for thirty cents? Ahem!"

Gu Qingqing nodded and explained, "We have enough materials. The materials plus the firewood, plus our hard work, the cost is about ten cents each. If it's not for making money, why would we work so hard?"

"Will that be too expensive? What if no one buys it?"

"That shouldn't be the case. Jinji sells a two-nut puff pastry for thirty cents. Even though ours is not puff pastry, it has five nuts at least." Gu Qingqing said confidently.

After she finished speaking, she looked at the somewhat nervous Wen Wuyan and suddenly said mischievously, "Wen Wuyan, why don't you go sell mooncakes tomorrow? After you tell them the price, if they think your offer is too high, they probably won't break your other leg because you have a lame leg."

"Qingqing!" Wen Wuyan's face was filled with black lines!

Hahahaha.

Gu Qingqing always found it funny when she saw him being frustrated.

Only thirty-three mooncakes were made that day. It was not because she didn't want to make more, but because all the pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds were used up.

The next morning, Gu Qingqing took Dahua to town again.

Erhua also wanted to go, but Gu Qingqing put her off by saying that your father can't live without you. It wasn't for any other reason.

It would take them more than half an hour to walk to the town, and Gu Qingqing was worried that Erhua would get too tired to walk halfway.

......

After entering the town, Gu Qingqing took Dahua directly to the other side of the road not far from Jinji.

Dahua looked at the queue of people across the street and pulled Gu Qingqing's clothes excitedly, "Mom, mom, look at how many people there are. It would be great if we could have so many people here."

Dahua had no idea that they were going to steal Jinji's business.

What I didn’t know was that many pastry shops in the town opened opposite Jinji and then went bankrupt.

All she knew was that there were a lot of people on the other side, and it would be great if they all came over to their side.

Gu Qingqing put a hand on Dahua's shoulder. After hearing what she said, she tightened her fingers on her shoulder and said with a smile, "You are silly. We only brought thirty mooncakes in total. If so many people really came, we would be surrounded by them."

"Ah! What should we do then? How many people do we need to come?" Dahua asked Gu Qingqing with some distress.

Gu Qingqing found a suitable position, took the backpack off her shoulders, and said with a smile, "If one person can buy two, we only need fifteen people. If one person can buy three, we only need ten people!"

"Mom, what if they don't buy it!"

"Hey, ancestor, quickly learn from me: Bah, bah, bah! Children should not be restrained in their words! Children should not be restrained in their words!"

Dahua seemed to know that she had said the wrong thing, and quickly imitated her mother, making two "Pah" sounds!

Then she started to giggle, she covered her mouth and said, "Mom, you just called me ancestor!"

This time it was Gu Qingqing's turn to be upset.

But she didn't care, she raised her chin towards Dahua and said, "Let's get started!"

When Dahua heard this, she happily jumped from the curb to the avenue and shouted in the direction of Jinji, "The five-nut mooncakes are sweet and fragrant. I want to eat more after taking a bite. My heart is filled with happiness."
