It is said that after Jiuyun Palace was disbanded, Gu Xiaodao and Duan Yan lived a life of sightseeing.

The wind whimpered, mixed with a few strands of snowflakes drifting into the room.

Gu Xiaodao noticed a trace of coldness, rubbed his eyes and sat up.

The palace lord closed the door, brushed off the broken snow from her shoulders, and said calmly, "Are you awake?"

Gu Xiaodao saw that he was carrying things in his hands, and said in a daze, "You went out?"

"En." The palace lord put away the things, took off the black cloak that was soaked in snow, and walked towards Gu Xiaodao.

Gu Xiaodao hurriedly lifted one side of the quilt and let him lie down.

The palace lord approached him coldly, frowned and said, "I'm cold."

When Gu Xiaodao saw him like this, he couldn't hold back, he quickly stretched out his arms to hug him, put his hands into his clothes, covered his cold feet with his feet, frowned and said, "Why are you going out?"

The palace lord chuckled and kissed his lips, "Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, I went down the mountain to buy some things."

Gu Xiaodao was taken aback, "It's Mid-Autumn Festival." Then he smiled and said, "I didn't expect this year's Mid-Autumn Festival to be spent in the snow-capped mountains, neither the lantern festival nor the bright moon."

The palace master's cold hand slowly walked over him, "It's okay, it's the same anywhere, as long as you're here."

Gu Xiaodao's heart warmed, but he ignored his movements, and when he came back to his senses, his clothes were already half-undressed.

Gu Xiao's face was red and his ears were red: "You!"

The Palace Mistress turned over and held him down, with a smile in her eyes, she frowned slightly and said, "I'm cold."

so what! !Gu Xiaodao struggled symbolically twice, and scolded with a smile: "Why do I think of the story of the farmer and the snake!"

The palace lord touched his face: "Will the farmer do things to enhance friendship with the snake?"

"..."

After a friendship was enhanced, Gu Xiaodao sat on the kang, wrapped in a quilt, staring blankly at the palace master who was simmering wine.

The palace lord was stared at by him for a long time, and couldn't help turning his head and smiling, "What are you staring at?"

Gu Xiaodao: "What are you looking at?"

"Well, keep watching." The palace master lowered his head again and continued to warm the wine on the fire.

Gu Xiaodao: "..." Just ended the conversation peacefully?

After a while, Gu Xiaodao also got out of bed, and silently looked through the things he bought. There were chicken and meat, paper lanterns, fried chestnuts, crispy candies, and they were quite rich.Gu Xiaodao put the food on a plate one by one on the table, touched his chin and said, "It seems that something is missing..."

When the Palace Master heard this, he also got up to look, and said after a while: "It seems that something is missing..."

The two stood silently by the table for a long time, looked at each other, and said in unison: "Moon cake."

The palace lord stood up without saying a word, "I'll go buy it again."

Gu Xiaodao hugged his waist, "It's getting dark, don't go."

The palace lord frowned and said, "A Mid-Autumn Festival without mooncakes... can't be done."

Gu Xiaodao: "...what's wrong?"

The palace master said: "If there are no moon cakes when offering sacrifices to the Moon God, he will not bless our reunion."

Gu Xiaodao was silent for two seconds, holding back his smile: "Since he is a god, why would he care about those one or two mooncakes?" Besides, there is a hairy moon in this snowy day?

The Palace Master looked at him seriously and said, "It must."

Gu Xiaodao rubbed his face, the Palace Master decided that even nine cows would not be able to bring it back, so he had to persuade him: "But if you go down the mountain now, there may not be any moon cake sellers left, they also have to go home for the holidays .”

The Palace Master looked unhappy, "Then go buy it at their house."

The road to the snow-capped mountains is already difficult, and it is even more difficult at night. Gu Xiaodao was worried about him, and thought about it: "Why don't we do it ourselves? It's more sincere to do it ourselves!"

The palace lord glanced at him, "Good idea...you know how to do it?"

Gu Xiaodao considered the equipment problem, hesitated for two seconds, and said: "No."

Palace Master: "I won't either."

The two fell silent again.

The palace lord said: "I'll go down the mountain to have a look."

Isn't it just moon cakes?Gu Xiaodao grabbed him: "I will do it! I will do it!"

The palace lord raised his eyebrows: "You really know how to do it?"

Gu Xiaodao reluctantly nodded.

He actually made moon cakes, and he taught them in the gourmet club that he randomly applied for credits when he was a freshman. He only went there once, and it happened to be teaching moon cakes.

But that is the ready-made mooncake skin filling. What they have to do is to put the skin wrapped in the filling into the mold, make a shape, then put it in the oven, take it out halfway, brush a layer of egg wash, and then bake it. When it comes out of the oven, basically It is a perfect mooncake.But thinking about it now, he doesn't even know how to make the most crucial skins and fillings, so he can't be regarded as being able to make mooncakes at all!

But in order to prevent the palace lord from going out, he would do anything!So Gu Xiaodao gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't it just a round cake? I'll make some and you make some. It's such a happy decision."

Palace Master: "I want to do it too?"

Gu Xiaodao nodded, "Yes." He was afraid that the things he made would not be satisfactory, and the Palace Master is a person with no cooking talent. He used to be pampered and cared for by others, and he didn't even have the necessary barbecue skills to walk in the rivers and lakes. Point it out, basically all you bring with you when you go out are dry food.

Therefore, the palace master's version of mooncakes must be able to set off the extraordinaryness of Gu Xiaodao's version of mooncakes.

The palace lord hesitated and said, "You teach me?"

I can't do it myself!Gu Xiaodao patted him on the shoulder and said: "What I teach you, you don't do it yourself, you can rest assured and boldly create it yourself."

Palace Master: "..."

Gu Xiaodao said pitifully: "I want to eat mooncakes made by Yan Yan, and I will eat them all."

Palace Master: "..."

Gu Xiaodao pushed the Palace Mistress to the kitchen, and pulled a rope in the kitchen.

The Palace Mistress looked at his actions with folded hands, and asked puzzledly, "What is this for?"

Gu Xiaodao stretched the rope straight and fastened it, put a sheet on it, and divided the small kitchen into two with the stove as the center. "You are on the other side, and I am on the other side. The materials are placed on the stove. You and I can't steal each other's food during the production process. Whoever sees who is a puppy!"

Palace Master: "..."

Gu Xiaodao was afraid that he would not do it, so he repeated again: "It can be done in any way, the key is the mind!"

After a short while, there was finally some movement at the other end, and Gu Xiaodao began to think hard about how to make mooncakes.

Because the palace lord's cooking is so poisonous, Gu Xiaodao has also learned a lot of skills over the years, but he can barely handle the three meals for the two of them. He really can't do pasta and so on!

But thinking that he would definitely be able to do better than the Palace Master, Gu Xiaodao felt relaxed all over, so he tentatively scooped up a little flour and put it in a soup bowl, added some sugar, added some water, and slowly kneaded the dough , while recalling the softness and hardness of the mooncake skin back then.

After waiting for the dough and shaping, Gu Xiaodao made a few dumpling skins like rolling out dumpling skins, and then began to worry about how to make the stuffing.

There is only a thin layer of mooncake skin, and the rest is all filling. He remembered that when the society taught how to make it, the ready-made filling was at least half the size of a fist.It would be great if there was bean paste... Gu Xiaodao felt melancholy for a while, and glanced at the leftover salted duck eggs on the stove.

After taking out a few salted duck eggs from the jar, Gu Xiaodao skillfully lit the stove, put the duck eggs in the pot, and then covered the pot.

After a small meeting, Gu Xiaodao took out the yolks of the boiled salted duck eggs one by one, put them in a bowl, poured honey on them, and started to stir them.

It wasn't until the stuffing became sticky and solidified that Gu Xiaodao satisfactorily rubbed a few balls the size of a baby's fist, and then wrapped the stuffing with leather.

In the absence of a mold, Gu Xiaodao had no choice but to knead the stuffing into a mooncake-like shape with his hands.

Everything is ready, only the oven is missing.

This is the hardest.

Gu Xiaodao clapped his hands and stood up, and asked through the bed sheet: "Master, are you doing this?"

The palace lord was silent for a while, and reluctantly responded.

Gu Xiaodao was suddenly very curious about what the palace lord had done, and suddenly lifted the sheet.

The palace lord quickly used the bowl to hold the things he made, and said indifferently: "Isn't it everyone who sees who is a puppy?"

Gu Xiaodao grinned and said, "Wang."

"..." The palace lord laughed angrily at his rascal appearance, and asked, "Are you done?"

Gu Xiaodao stepped aside and pointed to the cake behind him, "It's ready, it's just about to be baked."

The palace lord looked over and said with a smile: "It's pretty decent."

With a proud face, Gu Xiaodao reached out to grab the palace lord's bowl, "Of course, show me what you made!"

The palace lord pressed the bowl and said unnaturally: "You go and roast yours first."

Gu Xiaodao: "I'm getting more and more curious...can you give me a look? Just a look!"

The Palace Master shook his head ruthlessly.

mean!Gu Xiaodao pouted, "But how do you bake it?"

The palace lord wondered: "Didn't they be skewered and roasted on the fire?"

Gu Xiaodao turned and left with an expression of "Why would I ask you?"

Palace Master: "..."

The final roasting step becomes frying.

Gu Xiaodao looked at the big plate of soft and browned pancakes, almost crying.

The palace owner sneered: "Boss, your mooncakes look really different."

Gu Xiaodao gave him a bitter look: "If you have the ability, you can show what you made!"

The palace lord hesitated for a moment, and slowly opened the bowl, Gu Xiaodao saw two deflated rice balls.

Gu Xiaodao couldn't help but said: "Boss, your mooncakes are also quite out of the ordinary."

Palace Master: "..."

Gu Xiaodao said melancholy: "You said that if you use moon cakes like ours to sacrifice to the moon god, will the moon god bless our reunion?"

The palace lord touched his head and said with a smile: "...just as long as you have your mind on it."

……

In the end, the Palace Master ate oily salted duck egg pancakes, and Gu Xiaodao ate rice balls stuffed with mustard greens, and they sat side by side on the roof under a quilt.

Although the snow had stopped, the sky was still gray and the moon was naturally invisible.

After the palace lord finished eating the pancakes, she silently lit a paper lantern and handed it to him. Gu Xiaodao turned the paper lantern and smiled at him, "The moon is so round."

"Ah."

"The stars are so bright."

"Ah."

The palace lord actually cooperated with him, Gu Xiaodao rolled his eyes and looked worried: "Yanyan, you are really abnormal, there are no stars and moons, what are you doing?"

Palace Master: "...Didn't you be abnormal first?"

Gu Xiaodao laughed a few times and leaned on his shoulder, "Is there anything you want to tell me?"

"You have... mustard on your teeth."
