After traveling through time, she took her husband to be a food doctor

The weather is getting cooler. The pomegranates in my neighbor's house have grown very full, and the side facing the sun is red. When I got up in the morning, a few yellow leaves floated into the yard. In a blink of an eye, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming.

On August 14, Ding Xirui accepted An Yumo's invitation and went to her house to make mooncakes. While walking on the road, Ding Xirui remembered that around this time last year, she took a carriage to the vicinity of Jishitang and wanted to secretly take a look at Lin Mingxuan.

"How silly." Thinking of herself last year, she couldn't help but laugh. Banxia seemed to know what was on her mind and laughed with her.

It has been more than a year since I came here. Ding Xirui lifted the small curtain in the carriage, and a ginkgo leaf floated in.

An Yumo had already prepared everything needed, including sugar, ghee, pine nuts, walnuts, melon seeds, red bean paste, and flour.

It looks like it is going to be made with red bean paste filling and "five-nut filling". Although it only has three nuts, it is very similar to the five-nut mooncake that was "disliked" by many people in later generations.

Sugary and oily desserts have a very high glycemic index and are also very high in calories! Ding Xirui is against mooncakes in his heart, but he can only eat a few pieces a year, so he should make them during the festival!

"Xi Rui, please help me remove the skin of the walnut kernel first."

"How do we get there?"

"These are fried, and the skin is easy to remove. Just rub it."

"Ok."

Ding Xirui took a round, flat basket, poured the walnut kernels into it, and then rubbed them clockwise. After a while, the brown walnut skin fell off. However, some of the walnut kernels still remained in the wrinkles, which affected the appearance.

An Yumo came over to take a look and said, "It's okay."

"Break some more."

"it is good."

An Yumo was making syrup, which was a very delicate job. He added water and sugar to the big pot, and after it boiled, he added diluted milk, and then quickly removed the firewood, covered the pot and simmered it for two quarters of an hour. Then he continued to boil the pot, and after the syrup boiled, he continued to add milk, and when mud bubbles appeared, he scooped them out with a colander, until the black foam was cleared and white flowers appeared.

An Yumo was sweating profusely, and Ding Xirui took out a handkerchief to help her wipe it clean.

"Huh..." An Yumo exhaled, "Every time I make the syrup, it's very tiring."

Ding Xirui looked at the syrup in the pot and felt that it was because the sugar was not pure enough and contained impurities that it was so troublesome to boil it again.

While waiting for the syrup to cool, An Yumo began to fry the flour. First sifting, then frying, then sifting again, the flour became very fine and without lumps.

Mix the glaze, ghee and flour, knead until it can be balled, then add pine nuts, walnuts and melon seeds, mix well and roll into small balls.

Next came the dough, which included lye water, flour, syrup and oil. An Yumo had nimble hands and in a short while, the dough was ready and the portions were divided.

"All of you, go wash your hands, wipe them clean, and start making mooncakes." An Yumo ordered.

Ding Xirui and the others did as they were told obediently. It had been a long time since they had worked together, and everyone was very happy. An Yuxin, who was painting in the room, also came over to help.

The filling was placed in the dough and wrapped tightly, and small warm yellow balls appeared in everyone's palms. An Yumo took out the mold, sprinkled a layer of dry powder on it, and then put the wrapped balls in, pressed them firmly, turned them upside down, and a beautiful mooncake appeared.

Everyone gathered around, eager to have a taste of it.

"Auntie, start the fire."

"Okay!" The voice was full of energy.

Ding Xirui looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the aunt's figure was much more elegant than before, and smiled slightly. After losing weight, her high blood pressure symptoms should be better controlled. With An Yumo's supervision, she felt relieved.

Not long after, the aroma of wheat, sweetness and nuts wafted out, and the mooncakes were out of the oven!

Breaking off a piece and putting it in his mouth, Ding Xirui instantly wanted to forget about the idea of ​​controlling sugar and oil - it was really delicious. The skin was crispy, and the three kinds of nuts in the filling were fried in advance. After being baked in the oven, it was more fragrant, and with the background of sugar and ghee, it was perfect!

It was so delicious that it made me cry. When she was in high school, a classmate's mother ate two large pieces of freshly baked mooncakes, and then suffered from indigestion and went to the hospital for injections. Now she can understand that mother very well, who can't stop eating delicious food.

However, after eating half a mooncake, her rationality returned and she immediately stopped talking.

"Xi Rui, are you going to say that there is too much sugar and oil and ask us to eat less?" An Yumo turned his head and asked.

"The one who understands me is Yumo." Ding Xirui winked at her.

"Haven't you noticed? I've reduced the amount of sugar and oil. But you're right, eating too much is bad for your stomach, so you have to control yourself!" An Yumo pouted.

"Indeed, the ones sold at the market are sweeter, and you can't eat much of what you make yourself."

Ding Xirui suddenly thought of Zheng Shihui. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zheng Shihui would definitely eat mooncakes, so he had to take precautions in advance to prevent her from eating too much.

"Yumo, can I take two pieces and give them to Zheng Shihui?"

"Of course. How is her weight loss going now?" An Yumo asked.

"It's been more than two months now, and she has lost 20 kilograms, which is great."

"Doctor Ding is indeed extraordinary." An Yumo began to tease.

"Okay, okay, if you have nothing to do in the afternoon, you can go to the Zheng Mansion with me."

"no problem."

After lunch, An Yumo picked up two mooncakes, put them into an exquisite and beautiful food box, and went to Zheng's house with Ding Xirui.

Zheng Shihui's body shape has changed significantly, An Yumo thinks her face looks smaller. Unlike before when she just sat there waiting lazily, Zheng Shihui actually stood up and went to greet Ding An and the others when they entered the yard.

"Shihui, you have changed a lot now." An Yumo said with a smile.

"Yes, I work hard and endure every day. If it didn't work, I would have driven away Mrs. Lin long ago." Zheng Shihui said.

"Hahahahahaha." Several people laughed out loud.

It was very hard at first, but recently, she got used to the rhythm of eating, taking a walk after meals, and practicing Ba Duan Jin in the morning and evening. She feels much more energetic every day and is very happy.

"Why are you here today? It's not the day we agreed on yet." Zheng Shihui looked at Ding Xirui and asked.

The date they agreed to meet was after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"Isn't the Mid-Autumn Festival coming? I brought you some freshly baked mooncakes." Ding Xirui brought up the food box.

"We made this ourselves," An Yumo added.

Zheng Shihui paused, raised her eyebrows, and said, "This can't be a mooncake specially made for weight loss, right? It tastes terrible, right?"

"Hahahahaha."

After her physical condition improved, Zheng Shihui's speech became more and more interesting.

"It's definitely not bad, I promise." An Yumo said.

"Shihui, you are indeed a wise person. You told me what I was worried about in advance. I was afraid that the mooncakes at the market would be too sweet and greasy. If you ate them, it would seriously affect your weight loss. So, I brought the mooncakes made by Yumo. They can satisfy your appetite without affecting your health."

"Really?"

"Really." Ding Xirui nodded.

"Can I have one today?"

"Let's wait until tomorrow."

"Can I have both?"

“You can only eat half a piece.”

"Ah~" Zheng Shihui sighed, opened the food box and enjoyed the sight first.

Ding Xirui smiled and said to Juzi beside him: "Juzi, your young lady can only eat half a mooncake tomorrow. Do you understand?"

"Yes. Don't worry." Orange answered as he walked over and tried to put the lunch box away.

Zheng Shihui stopped Orange. She stared at the mooncake, looking around it with great interest.

Seeing this, An Yumo asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this mooncake?"

"No." Zheng Shihui shook her head.

"So you want to learn how to make mooncakes? Do you want to take me as your master? Since we are friends, I will not charge you any fees." An Yumo said jokingly.

"Who wants to be your disciple? I just think the pattern is beautiful." Zheng Shihui closed the box and handed the mooncake to Orange.

Hearing this, Ding Xirui was very excited. Could it be that... She quickly asked:

"Shihui, please tell me in detail, what happened to the pattern?"

"I have always liked the patterns on dim sum. Each type of dim sum is different, and some even have words engraved on them. I think it's very interesting."

"Yes, when the young lady eats snacks, she always looks at them first and then eats them." Xiao Ping said.

"Do you know where the pattern came from?" An Yumo asked.

"I didn't know this before, and I thought they were carved one by one by the master. Later I found out that they were all printed out using wooden molds."

"So are you interested in the model?" Ding Xirui asked.

"Yes. But my father said that these things are not for girls. He asked me to learn needlework, but I learned it for two days and then threw it aside because I really didn't like it."

An Yumo opened her eyes wide. She had never seen a woman interested in models before. She exclaimed, "Shihui, you are really extraordinary."

"See, even you find it unbelievable." Zheng Shihui shrugged.

Ding Xirui was delighted. She coughed and asked formally:

"Shihui, do you still want to learn how to make models now?"

"of course."

Ding Xirui smiled. As long as you have the intention, it is possible to achieve it. She blinked at An Yumo, who was a little puzzled.

"Shihui, do you know about Yumo?"

"what's up?"

"A few months ago, Yumo was actually discussing marriage, but she only wanted to work in the restaurant, but Uncle An and Aunt An would not allow it."

"Then why are you coming out now?" Zheng Shihui looked at An Yumo and asked her.

An Yumo understood what Ding Xirui had meant, and told him everything about how she had written the letter to persuade her parents.

"You are so smart." Zheng Shihui clapped her hands. She also wanted to follow this method to convince her father.

"Shihui, talk to your father calmly. Maybe he will understand you and allow you to try." Ding Xirui said.

"Yeah." Zheng Shihui nodded.
