Chapter 1193: Making My Own Mooncakes

Ms. Zhou was stunned. Do it himself?

She was a little intrigued, but she knew that Gu Yundong’s cooking skills were good. If she said that she would do it herself, it might be the kind of secret prescription that wasn’t available outside. She couldn’t just ask for it.

Hence, she asked, “Which shop did you reserve from? The Zhang family?”

The Zhang family? Gu Yundong smiled and shook his head. “No, it’s not the Zhang family. It’s a new shop and isn’t famous. However, the pastries they make are delicious. In the past, Tong An specially went to take a look. The place where they make mooncakes is clean too. I tried one. It tastes better than the Zhang family’s. I hope that they will have a place in the city in the future.”

However, Madam Zhou didn’t think so. Everyone knew that the Zhang family’s business was the most prosperous in Fengkai City.

In the past, there were many new shops that made many novel pastries. In the end, the Zhang family bought all the secret recipes. The Zhang family was the largest pastry shop in Fengkai County.

However, this was between them. The Zhang family hadn’t laid their eyes on the pastry shop, so the price of the pastries there wasn’t high. With Gu Yundong’s guarantee, Madam Zhou believed that the mooncakes would be delicious.

Hence, Madam Zhou nodded quickly. “Alright, I’ll order mooncakes from this shop too.”

Gu Yundong asked curiously, “Chen Jincai and Chen Jinbao will have mooncakes when the workshop distributes them. Why do you still want to buy mooncakes?”

“Hey, we have many relatives and friends, right? Our family is living a good life now, and we have many guests. We should give them some good treatment, right?” She sounded proud.

In the past, Madam Zhou was proud too. After all, her husband was the village head, but her family didn’t have much money. Now, she could buy anything she wanted. Her sons were promising and filial. She was extremely proud.

Gu Yundong smiled. “Alright, I will ask Tong An to buy more for you.”

“Alright, thank you. I’ll go back first.”

Madam Zhou saw that she was tired after coming back so she went back after a few sentences.

On the other hand, Keke looked at her excitedly. “Sister, are we making mooncakes ourselves?”

“That’s right. Do you want to learn?”

“Yes, yes.”

Gu Yundong hurriedly held her chin when she saw her nodding her little head too forcefully. She laughed and said, “I knew that you’re a foodie. I’ll look for you after I have the ingredients.”

“Okay.” The young lady grabbed her hand with her soft little hand and walked into the house happily.

The next day, Gu Yundong went to buy ingredients.

Then, she brought Keke and Shen Sitian to the kitchen to get busy. Chang Yaya took a stool and sat at the door to help pick up the green beans.

Gu Yundong planned to make ice cream mooncakes. She had prepared the molds.

Last year, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, she wasn’t at home and the mooncakes weren’t made. This year, she mustn’t miss it.

Keke took the molds and looked at them curiously. She widened her round eyes and asked, “Sister, what are these?”

“You will know in a while.” Gu Yundong poured a bowl of glutinous rice noodles and said to her, “Come, add some water for me.”

“Okay.” The young lady hurriedly put down the molds and ran to her side. She grabbed the water ladle and carefully released the water bit by bit.

Gu Yundong was extremely patient. She waited for her to take her time.

This young lady loved to cook. She might be able to work in this trade in the future.

However, she was still young. She would take her time and see if she could find a master chef in the future.

After filling the water, the young lady raised her head and smiled at her with her small mouth.

Her soft and cute voice melted Gu Yundong’s heart instantly.
