The children ate Shumin's things and became closer to Shumin, and the children rushed to answer whatever Shumin asked.

"Adou, do you also have a mother at home alone?" Hearing the children's babbling conversations, Shumin knew that all the men in the village had gone out, leaving only his wife or old mother at home.

"I'm at home with my grandmother." Adou replied that he had never seen his father, and when he heard that he was still in his mother's womb, his father went out to work with the people in the village, and never came back, but he came back with something. His mother died in childbirth when he gave birth to him, and he grew up with his grandmother.

Most of the children in this village are in the same situation as Adou, some of them are better, they still have a mother at home, and the worse ones are living with their grandmothers.

"Grandma is too old to work, and we often don't have enough to eat." A child older than Adou said, "When I grow up, I will also go to work in the city and take my grandmother with me." ”

He is better than Adou, at least his parents are there, but his parents have both gone out, leaving him to take care of his grandmother, and there is obviously a complaint against his parents in his tone.

In his opinion, his parents went to the city to enjoy themselves, leaving his grandmother and him hungry in this poor country.

Because every time my parents come back, they come back with a lot of good things, food and clothing, since the city is so good, why not take him with them!

How would he have known that perhaps his parents were somewhere in the city, doing the most miserable and lowly work in the world, with a pitiful salary of spoons, and having to endure the eyes of the people, just to bring some household and food and clothing to the family when they returned home.

When Shumin heard the boy's words, he felt a lot in his heart.

"You don't have anything growing in the field, what do you usually do?" Seeing that the children were all around Shumin, Da Li also came over to join in the fun.

"We do everything we do, and we play when we have nothing to do." It's not that things can't grow in the ground, some of the better land can still grow some sweet potatoes, beans and other crops, but the yield is not high, even if the wheat and rice are gone, they will not bear fruit.

The children's answers made Shumin and other adults sigh, and if this continues, this village is completely finished.

Shumin gave everyone some jerky, and it was estimated that each person had a small handful, but these children were very happy.

Da Li was afraid that the child would eat a small tail and not leave, so he quickly let them take the jerky and leave. Seeing the sullen appearance of Shumin's clothes, Da Li comforted

"Hui'er Niang, I have my own way of living, and what happened to them in their village is indeed embarrassing, but it is also their own fault. What can we do? ”

Along the way, she saw that Shumin was a person who would only think about others in her heart, and when she saw that the people in this village were not doing well, she was afraid that she would make some amazing moves, so she hurriedly gave her a vaccination.

"Auntie, I know. I'm just worried about the kids. Shumin said.

"You still don't know Hui'er Niang's temperament. She is a bodhisattva, you see that tofu is so profitable, she doesn't sell it for five hundred taels, she has to donate it, and she runs all over the county. If it weren't for the blessing of my mother in this life, I would have gone as far as the town. Xiao Li quipped.

The matter of Shumin's offering of tofu recipes has long been spread throughout Linjiang County, but there are not many people who know about the purchase of five hundred taels of children, * Cheng Sheng heard it for the first time, and he was surprised in his heart, and secretly looked at her several times.

While everyone was talking, Li Zheng sent someone to pass the word, asking Shumin and his party to move to Li Zheng's house to finish eating.

The courtyard of the Li Zheng family can be described as luxurious, which is incompatible with the simplicity of their family.

He and his daughter-in-law were the only ones left in Lizheng's family, and the two sons had already found a good errand outside the mountain and took the family out.

"Poor country, there is nothing to entertain, don't dislike it!" He said this, but his expression was very proud. The group saw the table of eight immortals in the hall, a table full of wine and food. Its lavish process is no less than the signature dish served in a private room upstairs.

It's just that most of them are chickens, ducks and fish, which is slightly inferior to the cherished game in Maple Village.

But the villagers of Maple Village are strong, and there is a lot of game in the mountains, how can they compare with this poor and remote land? The children here don't smell meat for a year, don't smell the smell of meat for half a year, all of them have yellow faces and thin muscles, and the villagers here are ragged and have no input, so they can only go out to work.

But today, there was a long table of sumptuous wine and food here, which really made Shumin and the others uncomfortable.

Seeing that Shumin and the others' faces were not very good, Li Zheng was a little puzzled in his heart, thinking, could it be that these dishes are not satisfactory to these nobles? But this was already the best meal he could get together, and many of the dishes he had brought on credit from other places with his old face.

Seeing that several nobles were silent, he hurriedly poured wine for the two officials, and said as he went: "Official, this is osmanthus brew, which I entrusted someone to buy back from the town." You taste it. ”

Shude and Cheng Sheng glanced at each other, and picked up their wine glasses to deal with it.

Seeing that the atmosphere was still cold, the old man who was the best at handling these relationships couldn't help but be a little stunned. I have to advise everyone to eat more vegetables. It's a pity that Shumin and the others only ate some home-cooked food, and they didn't even touch those chickens, ducks and fish.

After the meal, Shumin and the others returned to their residence with bad faces. Lao Lizheng was worried about the dishes that had barely touched on the table.

"What's the matter, old man, isn't the meal to your taste's liking?" Li Zheng's daughter-in-law, Sun, asked. She was a woman, and it was not easy to serve at the table, so she took the sweet potato and ate it with the oil in the pot of the wok.

"Hey, I'm afraid we don't know where to offend these distinguished guests." Lao Lizheng said weakly.

"Ah, what's going on. Our village is counting on them. Sun said, tears coming out.

"Don't worry, I don't think these guests will be perfunctory. Let's see tomorrow. Li Zheng said helplessly.

"And what about these dishes?" Sun looked at the table full of dishes and said distressedly.

"Keep it for now, if the guests don't eat, we'll send some to each household at that time."

"Whoa." Sun replied, and it could only be like this.

The next day, Shumin still borrowed the kitchen of the main family, there were few people in Washan Village, Shumin taught it to save worry and effort, two pots of soy milk, one pot for the villagers to taste the taste of soy milk and bean curd, and a pot was directly made into tofu by Shumin.

The villagers never thought that beans could be made into tofu, and a few catties of beans could make such a big tofu, and they were both surprised and grateful.

The rest of the bean dregs Shumin didn't waste it, and directly taught them how to make delicious soybean dregs cakes, which are hungry resistant.

The villagers are very grateful and have gone home to try, and it seems that tonight Washan Village is also tofu for dinner.

After Shumin finished teaching the villagers, she was not in a hurry to go back, and according to the usual practice, she would stay for an extra night to see if the villagers still had problems.

While she was teaching the villagers how to make tofu, Li Zheng was also staring closely. He saw that Shumin didn't seem to be perfunctory because of his "poor hospitality", and still explained how to make tofu for everyone in detail, and he felt a lot more relieved.

But he really didn't know where he had offended these distinguished guests, and he had been restless all night. At this time, seeing that Shumin had already handed over the finishing work to the big and small Li family to do, he hurriedly greeted him and said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's noon, if you have something you want to eat, I'll send my mother-in-law to make it for you."

"You're welcome, we're just casual." Shumin replied that she really didn't want to eat those chickens, ducks and fish anymore, and they couldn't eat at ease here.

"How can you do it, you are distinguished guests" As soon as he heard Shumin say casually, Lao Li was in a hurry.

"Uncle, while it's still early, why don't you take me to the village for a while, I heard that you have a lot of kilns here." Shumin interrupted him and said that she didn't want to be nosy, and she also felt that this was upright and stubborn, and she didn't want to help him. However, when the tofu was made, the children's cheering appearance made her a little unbearable.

"Okay, then I'll take you to see our biggest kiln here. That's what was left over from the most glorious days of our village. There's a lot of good stuff in there! ”

Lao Li was unclear, thinking that Shumin was also like the businessmen who came here before, and happily took Shumin to the kiln factory.

Shude and Cheng Sheng also went with them, after all, their task was to protect Shumin and his party.

The kiln factory has been abandoned for many years, and who knows if there will be an accident.

Besides, Cheng Sheng was still a little cautious, he knew that Shumin couldn't help but take care of the affairs of this village, but he couldn't think of what she would do? After all, this place is not worse than Chentian Village, Chentian Village is worse, and the geography can still grow something.
