15. Make tofu
Tong Xue first soaked the beans picked out by Xu Wan in space well water, and then poured them into a small stone mill and ground them into a pulp.
Looking at the milky white flowing out of the stone mill, the twins felt particularly novel, Xu Wenzhao came to Xu Wenyuan with a smile, and put his hands next to Xu Wenyuan, "Second brother, you are too hard alone, I will help you." β
In fact, Douding is a big person, he is just as tall as a stone mill, where can he have the strength, but as soon as Xu Wenzhao said this, Xu Wenyuan suddenly felt that his arms were not sore, and his body was not tired, and his whole body was full of strength.
Since Tong Xue entered the door yesterday, he hasn't said a word to his younger brothers and sisters, but now his younger brother can take the initiative to come over to help, and he is so considerate, he is really happy Xu Wenyuan.
Xu Jing is a girl, so she naturally didn't think about grinding to join in the fun, standing quietly by Tong Xue's side, looking at the scene in front of her curiously, biting her fingers, and then looking at Tong Xue, looking at Tong Xue with two cute eyes, "Sister-in-law, will this water really turn into tofu?" β
Xu Wan filled the stone mill with beans on the side, and the brothers Xu Wenyuan and Xu Wenzhao pushed the stone mill, but they cooperated seamlessly.
Tong Xue saw that there was nothing to do here for the time being, so she pulled Xu Jing and walked away, "Jing'er, let's go, go with my sister-in-law to prepare salt and brine." β
Xu Jing took Tong Xue's hand, looked back at his brothers and sisters who were busy with him, and obediently followed Tong Xue, and when she heard Tong Xue speak, she asked in a milky voice, "Sister-in-law, what is salt brine." β
Looking at the soft little girl in front of her, Tong Xue was in a good mood, she used to like such obedient children very much, but now she likes Xu Jing like this very much, "Didn't you ask my sister-in-law just now, does that water really turn into tofu, after adding salt and brine, soy milk can become tofu." β
Xu Jing looked at Tong Xue ignorantly, in fact, she didn't understand too much, what did it mean, but in short, it was the sister-in-law who could turn soy milk into tofu, Xu Jing clapped her little hands and looked at Tong Xue with admiration on her face, "Sister-in-law is really amazing, she can make tofu, even the eldest brother can't." β
In the eyes of little Xu Jing, the most powerful person is Xu Wenda, the eldest brother, who always feels that the eldest brother is the most powerful person in the world.
But this sister-in-law actually knows what her eldest brother won't do, plus Tong Xue went out for them before, Tong Xue's status in the little girl's heart has simply risen to a height comparable to Xu Wenda.
Hearing the little girl's praise, Tong Xue was also very happy, stretched out her hand and touched the top of Xu Jing's head, and pinched the little girl on the little girl's head, although it was a little yellow and a little hairy, but it felt really good.
Tong Xue retracted her hand, squatted down, and met Xu Jing's gaze, "Little girl, you are very good, you have a pair of discerning eyes, your sister-in-law and I are so powerful." β
After speaking, I saw that the little girl nodded very seriously, and Tong Xue was about to praise herself a few more words, when she heard a cough from behind.
This voice is familiar to Tong Xue, except for her talented and fair-looking person, there is no one else.
Tong Xue lowered her head and scratched her head, then turned to look at Xu Wenda, the corners of Xu Wenda's mouth curled slightly, and the playful smile on his face had not yet had time to put it away.
Tong Xue wrinkled her nose, and was very dissatisfied with Xu Wenda's amazement, and her whole face was full of expressions of such a brazen person in the world.
Pouting and glaring at Xu Wenda, Tong Xue asked loudly, "What are you laughing at, am I not right?" β
The corners of Xu Wenda's mouth curled even more, and his tone was very sincere, "You are right, you are very powerful, I really don't know how to make tofu." β
I don't know if I'm worried that it will cause a worse cough, Xu Wenda tried his best not to make his voice fluctuate too much, but Tong Xue still felt that he could hear the suppressed smile inside.
This kind of praise is obviously sincere, but it always feels like being laughed at, what the hell is going on.
Tong Xue glared at Xu Wenda fiercely, and snorted heavily, "If you are not in good health, you can't rest well, what are you running around." β
Saying that, she took Xu Jing's little hand, looked at the sky and walked out a few steps, Tong Xue realized that her behavior just now was really too naΓ―ve.
Xu Wenda usually doesn't come out much, one is to work hard to copy books in the room, and the other is really not in good health, as soon as he comes out, the whole family is worried.
If it weren't for the busy outside today, Xu Wenda wouldn't want to come out to see what's going on.
Tong Xue has just entered the door, but everything she has done makes Xu Wenda feel too unreal.
Although I don't know what kind of person Tong Xue was before, Xu Wenda inexplicably believes that Tong Xue in the past was not what she is now.
If it is the current Tong Xue, how can she not have such an unsatisfactory life even in the Tong family, looking at Tong Xue's appearance, you can know that she has suffered a lot in Tong, and listening to Wen Yuan's descriptor, Tong Xue's situation in the Tong family is indeed very bad.
Just because Tong Xue has the skills to make tofu, she shouldn't live like this.
But this person is clearly Tong Xue, and the Tong family sent it over, even if their Xu family has never seen Tong Xue, they may admit their mistake, but the Tong family will never mistake their daughter.
Xu Wenda felt unprecedentedly puzzled, even if he was a scholar, he had never encountered such a problem that he couldn't figure out, and he always felt that Tong Xue was shrouded in fog, and he couldn't see through it.
But at least now, they were people in the same boat, and he saw Tong Xue's determination to live a serious life.
Because it was the first time to make tofu, I didn't know how the market was, so I didn't dare to do more, and Xu Wenyuan quickly finished grinding all the beans.
Tong Xue asked Xu Wan to find a piece of muslin cloth and prepare to filter the slag, looking at Xu Wan's painful expression, Tong Xue said comfortingly, "Don't worry, when our tofu is sold, there will be silver, and there will be cotton." β
Watching the filtered soy milk flow out, Tong Xue felt that the saliva in her mouth began to secrete, fresh soy milk, she hadn't drunk it for a long time, "We don't cook porridge at night, let's drink soy milk." β
When Xu Wan heard this, her face was a little bitter, this is to make tofu to sell for money, what if she drinks it. And there's something good about this thing, it smells of beany.
The raw soy milk that has just been ground naturally has the taste of beans, looking at Xu Wan's frowning brows, Tong Xue nodded Xu Wan's eyebrows, "Wan'er, don't worry, this soy milk will become delicious after cooking, I promise, you will like it." β
Xu Wan looked at Tong Xue, who had a smile on her eyebrows, and said in her heart, I'm not worried about whether it's good or not, okay?
