As soon as it was dawn the next day, Jiang woke up Jiang Yue'e and Zhao Sanniang. It turned out that last night it was agreed that the three of them would be responsible for making sweet potato noodles at home, and they planned to go to the cellar early today to pick sweet potatoes and take them to the river to wash them.

Zhao Siniang vaguely heard movement around her, so she rubbed her sleepy eyes, and when she saw that they got up, she planned to sit up.

Seeing this, Jiang Yue'e hurriedly held her down, and said softly: "Siniang, you can sleep for a while." ”

Zhao Siniang shook her head, the family is working hard for a living, and she has to do something.

Jiang Yue'e couldn't persuade her, so she had no choice but to give up.

By the time the Jiang family washed the baskets of sweet potatoes they had selected from the cellar and came back from the river, the Yang family had already made breakfast with the help of Zhao Siniang.

At this time, the men of the family also got up, so everyone sat around and had breakfast.

In addition to Yang's freshly steamed wowotou in the morning and the leftover bone broth from last night, there was also a bowl of steaming tofu brain in front of everyone on the table. After taking a sip, I only feel that it melts in my mouth, salty and delicious, and it is very pleasant.

"It's ...... Tender tofu? Old Man Jiang said in surprise.

"It's tender tofu, yes, but Siniang said it's called tofu brain. This is Siniang got up early in the morning, took the soybeans soaked last night, and ran to the stone mill in the village to grind soybean milk, freshly made. Yang praised.

When everyone heard this, they all showed admiration. You know, this tofu is not just anyone who can make it, it's the secret of people's tofu workshops!

"Siniang, you can make this tofu brain, can you make that tofu?" Zhao Saburo asked.

Zhao Siniang nodded and said, "Of course it will!" Let's eat stewed tofu tonight. ”

"How many catties of tofu can this pound of soybeans make? If there is any profit, let's sell tofu by the way! Zhao Saburo proposed.

Zhao Siniang was stunned, she didn't expect Zhao Sanlang, who had always been taciturn, to be the first to speak out this time. But then she smiled and said: "One pound of soybeans can produce about three pounds of tofu." ”

"A pound of soybeans costs four yuan, and a pound of tofu in the town sells for two yuan, if we can really sell three pieces of tofu, we can make two dollars." Zhao Saburo totaled.

There is a lot to earn! Everyone's hearts were full of joy.

"I just stood next to me and watched Siniang make tofu, it's not difficult to make, why don't we bring two plates of tofu when we sell noodles?" Yang looked at Old Man Jiang and Zhao Yongzhong.

Old Man Jiang and Zhao Yongzhong both nodded, this deal is okay!

"Grandpa, Daddy, Big Brother, don't you think the tofu brain I make is much better than tofu?" Zhao Siniang said with a look of grievance.

"Of course the tofu brain made by our Siniang is delicious, your father and I have never eaten such a delicious thing in my life!" Zhao Yongzhong hurriedly comforted his daughter.

"Then what kind of tofu do we sell, just sell the tofu brains I made!" Zhao Siniang proposed. Is there any mistake? The noodle shop also sells tofu, can you be more professional?

"Siniang, of course we will sell the tofu brains you make, but you can also sell tofu at the same time!" Zhao Sanlang persuaded.

"Big brother, a pound of soybeans can make about fifteen pounds of tofu brain, if we fill a pound of tofu brain in each bowl, the selling price is two yuan, a total of thirty yuan, the cost of soybeans and seasonings is ten yuan, we can make twenty yuan, much more than the money we make from selling tofu!" Zhao Siniang lowered her head and took a sip of tofu brain, and then said: "It's not difficult to make tofu, but we don't have a stone mill at home, so we have to go to the public stone mill in the village to grind the beans and transport them back, it's too laborious!" Tofu brain can make a lot of money, just work hard, and you can't make a lot of money from making tofu, what do you do with that effort? ”

Without waiting for Zhao Sanlang to answer, Yang said: "You kid, why don't you understand the truth of accumulating a lot?" Three catties of tofu can only earn two cents, so let's make sixteen catties of tofu and make two boards a day, if we can sell these thirty catties of tofu, we can also earn twenty cents! ”

"There are no tofu factories in our village or several nearby villages, so you have to go to the town to buy tofu. If we put two plates of tofu in the shop, and the people who work pass by our shop, there will always be people who are willing to buy two pieces to take home. "Mr. Jiang also thinks it's a good idea to sell tofu by the way.

"Just for the sake of two plates of tofu, you have to grind ten catties of beans to say less,......" Zhao Siniang pursed her lips and disagreed.

"You kid, isn't it just ten pounds of beans, although I am old, I can still do this little work! It's up to me to grind beans! Yang insisted.

"Mother, how can I tire you? Anyway, a few of us are going to grind sweet potatoes, and by the way, we will grind the beans! Jiang Shi said busily.

After that, Jiang glared at Zhao Siniang, and Zhao Siniang had to shut up obediently.

After breakfast, Yang stayed at home to take care of the housework and take care of Jiang Hua and the children. Jiang, Jiang Yue, and Zhao Sanniang are going to chop the sweet potatoes, and then grind the chopped sweet potatoes into sweet potato pulp. Old man Jiang took Zhao Sanlang and went to find people from the same village to help build a grass shed and a stove. As for Zhao Siniang, she followed Zhao Yongzhong to the town to purchase.

Everyone discussed that they should try to complete the preparations within today, and strive to open the shop tomorrow.

When Zhao Yongzhong and Zhao Siniang pushed a fully loaded cart back to Jiangjiatan, it was almost time for Shen.

Today, Zhao Siniang bought five pairs of pigs at once. Because everyone discussed, the shop just started, I didn't understand what the market was, and I didn't dare to do more, so I burned two pairs every day to try it. Thinking that tomorrow would be the first day of opening, I was afraid that it would be very busy, so I bought the amount the day after tomorrow with it. Anyway, after the pig is treated in the water and marinated in the jar, not only will it not be bad, but it will add more flavor. As for the extra fifth pair, it was bought back to cook tonight for a treat.

No, Zhao Siniang just returned to Jiang's house, and before her ass was hot, she was caught in the stove to help. Since Zhao Siniang showed her hand, everyone feels that cooking is indispensable for her.

But the saddest thing is Zhao Sanniang, although she has made psychological preparations, but when the five pairs of pigs are placed in front of her, the corners of her mouth can't help twitching.

After listening to Zhao Siniang's explanation of how to deal with pigs, Jiang and Jiang Yue'e finally understood why Zhao Sanniang showed such an expression of wanting to cry without tears.

Unexpectedly, her niece, who has always been tough, will be made out of trouble by a few pairs of pigs, Jiang Yue'e laughed very unkindly in her heart.

"Sanniang, don't worry, let's wash together!" Jiang Yue'e finally held back a smile and comforted seriously.

"I bought a little too much today, and there will only be two pairs a day in the future, and my mother and aunt will have it all, so you don't have to do it." Jiang Shi also hurriedly coaxed.

Zhao Sanniang snorted lightly and pouted: "Anyway, I'm fed up with this pig lung, and I'll wash all the rest!" ”

Jiang Shi saw that the second daughter, who had been a big girl since she was a child, actually sprinkled her coquettishly, and couldn't help but be happy, and hurriedly agreed to her.

Zhao Siniang on the side listened, looked at Zhao Sanniang with a complicated expression, and said secretly: Sister, are you sure? Today's pigs have pigs in the water!

Originally, Zhao Siniang only wanted to buy belly lungs, and the owner of a pig butcher shop offered four yuan, Zhao Siniang cut it to three yuan, and asked if she could not have a pig intestine, and two pairs gave five yuan, but the boss refused to live or die. You must know that the pig water in the butcher shop is used to make an additive, and few people will pay for it, and the most difficult thing to send out is the pig's large intestine. Now that someone is willing to pay for it, they don't hurry up and sell the pig's intestines. Zhao Siniang, who was helpless, had to take back the pig's large intestine.

Zhao Siniang is constantly fighting between heaven and man in her heart, should she persuade her family to throw away the pig's intestine? If you don't persuade her, if she washes it, she won't be able to do it, and if she lets someone else wash it, she will feel very sorry, after all, the things in it are really unbearable; Persuade her, she will be bombarded by her family again, saying that she is a loser. This worthless pig intestine really makes her very entangled!

So while thinking about it, Zhao Siniang took the bean dregs left over from making tofu and began to unconsciously scrub the pork belly.

Originally, white flour and salt and vinegar were used to wash pork belly and pig intestines, but the price of white noodles was too high, and Zhao Siniang was really reluctant to use it anymore, and she was afraid that she would be criticized by her family after knowing about it, so she wanted to find a cheap alternative. When I went to grind soybean milk in the morning, Zhao Siniang suddenly remembered that in her previous life, I heard that pork belly and pig intestines could be washed with bean dregs, so she left the bean dregs, and practice proved that the effect was really good.

Zhao Sanniang on the side saw that her little sister was constantly busy, and she was very upset, and she wanted to help do something. She saw that the pig lungs were taken out by Jiang and Jiang Yue'e to be washed, and the pork belly was being scrubbed and washed by Zhao Siniang, so she silently took a basin to fill the pig's large intestine, and according to what Zhao Siniang just said, she took the bean dregs to the river to clean.

By the time Zhao Siniang came back to her senses, Zhao Sanniang had been gone for a long time.

After a long time, it was long enough for Jiang and Jiang Yue'e to wash the pig's lungs and come back, and Zhao Sanniang came back with the basin and cleaned pig's large intestine, still with a black face that couldn't be blacker, and threw the basin to Zhao Siniang, but this time she didn't even bother to say anything.

"What? Sanniang, did you actually wash the pig's large intestine? Yang, who had just entered the stove from outside, couldn't help but be surprised when he saw that the basin that Zhao Sanniang threw to Zhao Siniang was actually a pig's large intestine. When she bought meat for the Chinese New Year the year before last, she also took it back to her family as an additive, but she couldn't wash it no matter how she washed it, so she had to throw it away in the end. The reason why she can remember the events of the year before last so clearly is because of its taste that impresses her and is still unforgettable. But Zhao Sanniang went to wash five at once...... Five ...... The Yang family felt sorry for her.

Zhao Siniang was so sorry, and said with a sincere face: "Second sister, I'm sorry, I should make it clear how difficult this pig's large intestine is to wash!" ”

Seeing Zhao Siniang's apologetic face, Zhao Sanniang felt very embarrassed, thinking to herself, I took the initiative to wash the pig's large intestine, and it wasn't my little sister who forced me to go, so I shouldn't be angry with my little sister.

"It's okay, it's a little hard to wash at first, and I'm used to it when I wash it." Zhao Sanniang smiled at Zhao Siniang as she spoke, but this smile was more reluctant and reluctant.

Zhao Siniang couldn't help but be stunned when she saw Zhao Sanniang's ugly smile that was worse than crying, and then said with a straight face: "Second sister, today I will wash your large intestine, which is very good and delicious." ”

Zhao Sanniang saw that the little sister had a small face, and assured her so seriously, she burst out laughing: "Okay, the second sister is really nothing!" If this thing can really make money, the second sister is willing to wash it every day! ”
