Chapter 49 Mold

"I'm so sorry, I've let you spend money. We can't ask for it for nothing." At this time, Mrs. Liu walked out, holding a few old man's heads in her hand.

"Sister Liu, I heard what you said. We like Baoer, so we bought gifts for Baoer. If you really give us money, our two families will not move in the future." Wei Qingqing said seriously.

"If you say that, I won't say anything." Mrs. Liu collected the money again. Thinking about it, it was because she contracted the mountain or was it the contract fee she had provided for.

"That's right," Wei Qingqing smiled with satisfaction before saying, "Have you eaten?"

"We are eating! But the food my mother cooks is not delicious at all." Xiao Baoer hugged the learning machine tightly in her arms and quickly replied.

"Little greedy cat, go, go to my aunt's house. My aunt's house is delicious." Wei Qingqing grabbed Xiao Baoer's little hand, grabbed Mrs. Liu's hand with the other hand, and walked towards the yard together.

"Let Bao'er go, I'll go home and eat..." It was getting dark, and Mrs. Liu didn't want to go to Yang Ming's house.

"Neighbors, why are you polite? You are so busy all day long that you don't touch the ground, so how can you make delicious food?" Wei Qingqing said without saying a word and pulled her away.

A bunch of puppies followed closely behind and surrounded them.

"Yes, after working, we must supplement our nutrition. Today, Baoer made great contributions. I can finally have a good meal of fried grasshoppers." Yang Ming carried a bunch of grasshoppers caught by Xiao Baoer, and was so greedy that he drooled.

"What are you loading in your car? Don't you unload it?" Mrs. Liu said when she saw that there were a lot of things loading in the car.

"They are all old furniture made from my parents, which are quite heavy. Just wait until Lao Yang comes tomorrow." Wei Qingqing said.

"Aunt Qingqing, I like your little flower dog very much. Can you give me one?" Xiao Baoer looked at the little spotted dog and said with some gaze.

"Why do you always want this and that?" Xiao Baoer is a child and doesn't understand the value of these puppies, but Mrs. Liu knows that these spotted dogs are worth a lot of money.

In fact, Xiao Baoer just saw that the number of spotted dogs was the largest, so she asked for this one. Besides, it was very common to ask for a puppy in the countryside.

"Oh? Does Xiao Baoer like puppies too?" Wei Qingqing remembered that Xiao Baoer didn't like kittens and puppies very much.

"Uncle Zhang Yang said that there are big bad wolves on the mountain. What should I do if my mother goes up the mountain alone and is taken away by the big bad wolves? At that time, Baoer will be the only one left in the family. I feel relieved if there is a puppy following her mother." Xiao Baoer said.

Although this sentence is a naive word, it is a bit sad for the few people to say it.

"You can't give these puppies from my aunt's house, but my mother gave birth to another litter of puppies. In two days, my aunt got you two." The bitch in Yang Ming's farm space had already put in 9 more puppies, and after so long, she was almost open.

Xiao Baoer was a little disappointed when she heard that the aunt refused to give her, but later when she heard that the aunt would give her two, she immediately became happy: "Thank you, aunt."

"I know, these spotted dogs in your family are very valuable, not a learning machine..." The child is ignorant, and the adults must be ignorant. Mrs. Liu was about to refuse, but before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Wei Qingqing. "It's nothing, they are all born from their own dogs. It's normal for neighbors to have a puppy... Our big dogs are also in charge of the neighbors' coming." In order not to let Mrs. Liu refuse, Wei Qingqing even made up lies.

"Then, okay..." Mrs. Liu really stopped saying anything.

"Sister Liu, the mooncakes you made are so delicious. Can I learn how to make mooncakes from you?" Wei Qingqing said.

"Of course, it's quite simple. You can go to my house later and I'll teach you." Mrs. Liu was also very happy.

"Thank you, Sister Liu. Let's cook first. After dinner, we will make mooncakes. If my mother eats the mooncakes I made by myself during the Mid-Autumn Festival, she will definitely be very happy." Wei Qingqing said happily.

The night is deep and the bright moon is about to be full.

After dinner, Yang Ming and Xiao Baoer watched TV at home, but Wei Qingqing followed Liu Sao to Liu Sao to learn how to make mooncakes.

The lights in the outer room of Mrs. Liu's house were on, but the light was not too big and the light was very dim.

After washing the basin, Mrs. Liu took the scoop and scooped out a full scoop of flour in the dough tank. Mrs. Liu explained: "Making mooncakes is very simple. They use dry yeast to mix noodles, and then wrap the sinking materials like buns, then put them in the mold to form, put them in the oven and bake them for a while. It will be almost half an hour."

"What is the oven like? Is the oven OK?" Wei Qingqing asked.

"Oven is of course better, but our house does not have an oven, so I made an oven by myself..." Mrs. Liu introduced to Wei Qingqing the oven where she baked mooncakes.

This is something built with bricks, similar to a stove, but it is not a pot on it, but a large iron plate. On the iron plate is a low iron rack for baking things. The lid is like a large iron basin, covered with tight thighs.

When using it, burn the fire under the stove, roast the iron plate red and emit a hot high temperature, so that the things can be baked.

"You can't say it, it looks simple, but it's really easy to use. At least it's much larger than the oven." Wei Qingqing nodded repeatedly.

"I'll teach you how to knead the noodles. You need to use dry yeast to make mooncakes, just like dough. By the way, the dry yeast I mentioned is not a mother-eater..." Liu Sao poured the flour into the basin, then scooped out a small spoon of light brown powder from a small can, sprinkled it into the flour, and then mixed it with water to knead the noodles. "This dry yeast was left behind when I made mooncakes last year. It was dried and grinded into powder, and kept for use next year. The effect was pretty good."

"Is this a fat face?"

"It's almost the same!"

After making it in person, let it eat in the basin for a while. Mrs. Liu began to teach Wei Qingqing to prepare the filling: "The filling is simple, you can make your own taste of it. It's like filling with dumplings, but you have to use sugar, it's better if you have honey."

Mrs. Liu uses three fillings: peanuts, melon seeds and sesame seeds. She has prepared for making mooncakes this year.

After reconciling the filling, Mrs. Liu took out another mooncake mold. The mold was very simple. It was to dig a round hole on a thick wooden board with patterns carved inside.

"This mooncake mold is quite beautiful..." Wei Qingqing took it and took a look.

"This was made by Baoer's father himself, it's been five or six years." Looking at the mooncake mold, Mrs. Liu smiled bitterly.

"Oh! By the way, Mrs. Liu, are you planning to find a father for Baoer?" Wei Qingqing said inadvertently.

"..." Mrs. Liu didn't say anything, but her expression became cold. She took the mooncake mold from Wei Qingqing's hand and began to make mooncakes silently.

Wei Qingqing stuck out her tongue, knowing that her test made Mrs. Liu unhappy, she wanted to make up for it as soon as possible, otherwise the relationship would be cold, so she said, "It's really that Mrs. Liu, Baoer is so pitiful that she doesn't have a father, and Yang Ming likes her very much..."

"What did you say?" Mrs. Liu was originally dark when she heard Wei Qingqing's previous words. When she was about to turn against her, she was stunned when she heard her mention Yang Ming.

"I said, Yang Ming likes her very much and wants to recognize her as his goddaughter..."

"...Oh! You said this..." Mrs. Liu's face turned red. It turned out that she had thought it was a bit out of the way. "Of course, I'm afraid Baoer will be so happy..."

"What's wrong with you just now? Why is your face so ugly?"

"You damn girl, are you embarrassed to say it? You can't even explain it..."

"Ah?" Wei Qingqing pretended to be stupid.

"Nothing is nothing, nothing..." Mrs. Liu touched her rosy face and made mooncakes.

"Oh...so..." Wei Qingqing pretended to realize her sudden realization.

"Qingqing, have you heard of it? Aunt Zheng Yu was happy. When Uncle Zheng Yu got married, many people in the village said that they were too old and could not give birth..." Mrs. Liu began to change the topic again.

"How many days have passed? Can you tell?" Wei Qingqing asked curiously.

"Uncle Zheng Yu was almost crazy to want a child. He started to go to the hospital for examination in three days, and once a day. When he came back today, the news of Aunt Zheng Yu was spreading the whole village. The third master and three grandparents were almost happy to death." Mrs. Liu said.

The third grandparents and three grandparents mentioned by Mrs. Liu are Zheng Yu's parents.

"So that's it." Wei Qingqing nodded, but her heart became heavy. If this child was born and was thrown to Mr. Zheng Yu in front of Mr. Zheng's house, what would the child's grandparents react? What would the child's mother react?

After all, the child's mother is young and may still bear the blow, but what about the two old men? When there is no grandson, the two old men may have nothing, but after having a grandson, they have no grandson. Don't be hit again, just...

Thinking of this, Wei Qingqing had no intention of making mooncakes? What did Mrs. Liu say again? She didn't listen to a word. There was only one sentence in her mind that was repeatedly echoing: Yang Ming was doing evil.
