"I just went to the town to deliver tofu the day after tomorrow, and I sold the tofu and brought some vegetables to entertain them."

Yang Ruoqing said.

There is a rule in Changping Village, and it is a great joy to buy a field.

The buyer had to organize a table of food and wine to entertain the middleman and the witnesses, and he had to pay the middleman a certain amount of intermediary fees.

Those who are well-courteous will also give red envelopes to the middlemen and witnesses as a token of gratitude.

Sun nodded: "Okay, remember to come to the restaurant, no matter how good the dishes are, you have to drink to cheer up." ”

"Okay, I remember it all. Then let's soak the soybeans first, and let's make a batch first when we are free today. ”

The mother and daughter here had just agreed, and over there, Luo Fengtang came out of Yang Huazhong's house.

"Third aunt, Qing'er, I went home first."

He greeted this way.

Sun turned to Luo Fengtang and said, "Tang Yanzi, go and talk to your uncle, and come to my house for lunch at noon the day after tomorrow." ”

Say hello first, and wait until the day after tomorrow, and then I will go to invite again, which is the number of hospitality courtesies.

Luo Fengtang nodded: "Eh, I'll tell my uncle." ”

His eyes then fell on Yang Ruoqing: "Qing'er, then I'll go home first, and I'll come back the morning after tomorrow." ”

"Well, Cheng!"

……

In the room, Sun looked at Yang Ruoqing's soaked soybeans and was surprised.

"Qing'er, why are you soaking so many soybeans this time?" Sun asked.

In the past, I soaked ten catties of soybeans and made fifty catties of tofu to send to the town restaurant.

"I'm afraid there are about twenty catties in this bucket, right?" Sun asked.

Yang Ruoqing nodded: "In addition to making tofu this time, I also want to make some tofu or something, there are more tricks and more inputs!" ”

Sun's face was curious, "Cheng, my mother will give you a hand that night!" ”

It was fast into night.

After washing up Xiao An and sending him back to the house to sleep, Yang Ruoqing and Sun both came to the stove room to prepare to make tofu.

Yang Huazhong also came.

The man said: "You ladies have made tofu so many times, and I have eaten a lot of bean dregs tofu, and I have never seen how this tofu is made!" ”

Sun said: "Your leg is recovering, and it is cold on the ground late at night. ”

The man shook his head: "Don't get in the way, I'm in a wheelchair!" ”

Yang Ruoqing said: "Don't worry, mother, when it's late at night, it'll be fine if you bring clothes for your father to cover your legs." ”

"Besides, let's grind twenty catties of soybeans out of the pulp tonight and make a plate of dried tofu first."

"The rest of the soybean milk, let's make tofu tomorrow night!"

The family began to get busy.

After making so many rounds of tofu, Sun and Da'an have become proficient.

The two of them helped Yang Ruoqing grind beans and cook soy milk, which was done calmly and neatly.

Yang Huazhong on the side also looked full of novelty.

When the soy milk in the two cauldrons was boiling, Da'an turned around and left the stove room to go outside.

Yang Huazhong asked: "It's dark outside, what is he doing when he goes out?" ”

Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled: "Take the wind!" ”

Lookout?

The man couldn't cry or laugh.

Then I remembered that Liu said that he wanted to learn to make tofu last time, and the man was also relieved.

"This kid is really cautious, for fear that the craft will leak out." He said.

Yang Ruoqing nodded, isn't it, this younger brother is clever!

Sun, who was sitting at the door of the stove, said: "In the future, we will build a new house and build a house for making tofu, this small stove room is too small and not too tight." ”

"Well, if you swing the frame of the door panel for making tofu, you can't turn around." Yang Huazhong also said.

"This time, I bought all the silver in the field, and I have two taels of silver left." Sun continued.

"Buying rice, food, vegetables or something, but it can last for two months. But if you build a house, it's too bad! She sighed softly.

Yang Huazhong also felt the same way, "But the field is the foundation of our Zhuang households, and it is good to buy more things." ”

Over there, Yang Ruoqing, who was busy ordering brine, pursed her lips and smiled when she heard this.

"Dad, mother, don't worry, there will be fields, there will be new houses, and our lives will get better and better!"

"Well, as long as people are not stupid and their hands and feet are diligent, everything will be fine!" Yang Huazhong also nodded heavily.

The point is complete, and Da'an is back.

Yang Ruoqing and Sun worked together to scoop the tofu brain into the tofu mold on the side.

Sun sighed: "Tang Yanzi's hand is really ingenious, with this mold, it really saves a lot of trouble!" ”

Yang Huazhong stroked the wheelchair sitting under him, and sighed: "This wheelchair was also given by him, that kid is really not bad, even if he doesn't hunt, he can eat with this carpentry skill!" ”

The tofu brain was scooped up in the praise of Luo Fengtang by the two of them.

The gauze is folded in half, and a door panel is pressed on top to squeeze the water from the tofu.

The next thing is to wait.

Yang Ruoqing scooped out a few bowls of tofu brains in advance, put caramel on them, and served them to her father and mother and younger brother respectively.

"I'm only half busy, and I'll have to be busy again later, drink a bowl of tofu brain to refresh myself!" She said.

"Sister, why don't you drink it yourself?" Daan asked.

"I lose weight!" Yang Ruoqing said.

Sun glanced at Yang Ruoqing with disgust: "I'm talking stupid things again!" ”

Da'an said with a serious face: "Sister, you are much thinner than before now, you don't need to lose weight." The person who really deserves to be lost is my sister-in-law, who is ridiculously fat! ”

"Da'an, how do you speak? My sister-in-law is your elder! Sun scolded Da'an in a low voice, and turned his head to look at Yang Huazhong again.

Yang Huamei is the baby bump of the old Yang family, and her five brothers spoil her.

Fortunately, Yang Huazhong was drinking tofu brain with a bowl there, as if he hadn't heard it.

Daan secretly stuck out his tongue, picked up the bowl and quickly drank the tofu brain.

In the process of waiting for the tofu to squeeze the water, Yang Ruoqing was not idle.

She took two wooden basins and placed soy sauce, salt, tea leaves, and some seasonings for stir-fried vegetables that were limited to the house.

Finally, pour boiling hot water into it and set aside.

"Qing'er, what is this water for?" Sun asked.

"Brine, used to make brine sauce dry." Yang Ruoqing said.

She turned around and brought the dried chili peppers and caramel.

Shred the dried peppers and place them in one of the wooden pots.

The caramel was placed in another wooden tub.

"Later, let's soak the dried tofu in this brine, and by the morning after tomorrow, it will almost completely absorb the flavor."

Yang Ruoqing explained to the family members on the side while tending to the brine.

Sun nodded: "My Qing'er has a good idea, eh, I guess the tofu over there is almost overwhelmed, right?" ”

Yang Ruoqing walked over and touched it a few times, and said, "If you make tofu, you can uncover the cut at this time." However, what we want is dried tofu, and we have to squeeze the water! ”

As she spoke, she picked up the stone that had been prepared on the side, and added another piece to the press board.

After a while, she added another piece to it.

Tofu itself is fragile and can easily break them up when added at once.

This weight has to be added gradually.
