Slowly, it seems that everyone in Linshui Town is used to having a Su Shangjing in the village, and Su Ji Tofu Shop is finally not a sharp-tongued Su Shangqing standing in front.

In the eyes of the villagers, this young man named Su Shangjing is very smart, and he has a special way to take care of the Su family's small business, the taste of tofu has not changed, it is the tofu of the old Su family, Lao Su taught his daughter the technique completely, and the taste of natural tofu is also as good, but the tofu bought from Su Shangjing's hands, everyone thinks it is very delicious.

Aunt Wang, who opened a beef offal noodle restaurant opposite the Su family, went to Su Ji Tofu Shop every day to eat a bowl of tofu brain, and took a few pieces of old tofu back to stew soup along the way, and finally developed into a new dish in the beef offal noodle restaurant, which is called Shangjing Tofu.

The origin of this Shangjing tofu is also very wonderful-

Su Shangqing always prevaricated Qi Jingqin, who had always wanted to return to the capital, on the grounds that he was not entangled, Qi Jingqin believed that Su Shangqing would not deceive himself, so he desperately helped Su Shangqing earn money to take care of the shop.

Qi Jingqin originally wanted to learn the craft of grinding tofu from Su Shangqing, but Su Shangqing said: "This craft is the heirloom of the old Su family, unless you are a member of the old Su family, otherwise don't think about stealing this craft." ”

Qi Jingqin didn't want to steal this craft, he just saw Su Shangqing's girl's family, staying in the tofu workshop all day to grind tofu, it was okay in winter, and his body could be warmer, but staying in it on a hot day could heat people to death.

Besides, grinding tofu requires a lot of physical strength.

It is said that there are three hardships in the world: striking iron, supporting the boat, and grinding tofu.

And he who strikes iron shall endure the heat day and night by the furnace, and live as hell, and endure the heat by the furnace day and night, and live as hell. A sledgehammer for a lifetime, labor. It's dirty and tired, and not to mention, the perennial tiredness of the eyes can't stand it.

To strike iron, the first thing is to make a fire: put a large stove in the middle of the house, and a large iron pier in front of the furnace. When the iron furnace is lit, the bellows are pulled by hand. When apprentices first entered the iron shop, they all started by pulling the bellows, but now that there are no apprentices, no one pulls the bellows, so they switch to electric blowers. The fire must burn vigorously, otherwise it will be difficult to forge iron.

There is a danger of capsizing at any time between the wind and waves, and there is a danger of capsizing and dying at any time between the wind and rain.

Drinking the water in the river, eating and living on the boat will have an impact on the body, and what is even worse is to guard the endless loneliness of loneliness.

Not to mention grinding tofu, sleeping on three shifts and getting up on five shifts, doing donkey work, getting a small amount of money that can only make ends meet, getting up early and greedy for darkness, making tofu every day to soak beans, grind tofu, and burn pulp...... By the time the tofu is sold in the market, it has already gone through multiple processes.

The whole process of making tofu is commonly known as grinding tofu, in fact, it is not only "subjected" to grinding, but also has to go through several processes before it becomes tofu.

The first is to grind and dehull, pour the dried soybeans into a soil hull in batches and roll them, so that they are shelled and flaked; The second is soaking, so that the shelled and clean soybean slices are soaked in clean water for four or five hours.

Which is not a job of strength?

The so-called boating and selling tofu are the three hardships of life, and all three have several things in common - it is the work of strength, the work of care, and the work of time. Strength is easy to understand, be careful about work, take a boat for fear of drowning, strike iron for fear of going crooked, buy tofu for fear of shattering the goods, you have to be careful, there is no moment of relaxation; Time work, it's all about getting up early and being greedy for darkness, eating less and doing more, which consumes the body and loses health.

Qi Jingqin knew this, so he wanted to help Su Shangqing a little, seeing her get up early and go to bed late every day was very bad for her health, Qi Jingqin thought that Su Shangqing's parents died early, probably because this work was really hard.

Qi Jingqin just wanted to help do a little strength work, Su Shangqing bought a donkey to help grind, but there was still some strength work that Su Shangqing needed to do by herself, Qi Jingqin saw that she was very tired every day, and she couldn't bear it-

No matter how you say it, she is her own life-saving benefactor, listening to what the neighbors said, Su Ji tofu is delicious, but in the past, Su Shangqing only sold the tofu in the morning and sold it in the afternoon, because it was less done, so it was sold out quickly.

But now, in order to make up for their travel expenses, Su Shangqing has to make a lot of tofu every day, and he keeps putting soybeans when grinding, and his shoulder hurts every day.

Qi Jingqin felt very sorry for her, and he was very reluctant to go, after all, it was because of himself, so Su Shangqing was like this, and the medical expenses during the time when he was injured were also paid by Su Shangqing, and he had to take care of himself every day, Qi Jingqin owed Su Shangqing too many things.

"I just want to help you, I don't mean to steal learning, grinding tofu is so tiring, I just don't want to see you so tired, but I can't help you with anything, I will feel very guilty." Qi Jingqin couldn't help but say in the face of the stubborn Su Shangqing.

Su Shangqing was really tired during that time, she kept thinking, if she made up enough travel expenses, what should she do if Su Shangjing had to go back to Shangjing, and what would she do when the time came?

Faced with his explanation, Su Shangqing only felt very annoyed, looked at him with his head up, and said angrily: "If you really feel sorry for me and don't want me to be so tired, don't go back to the capital!" If you don't go back to the capital, I won't have to be so tired to make tofu every day! Have you ever thought about it, if Qingqing really cares about you, if you are really a son of a powerful person, why has no one come to you for almost two months? You don't remember why you fell into the river and floated all the way to Linshui Village, but don't you think? If that Qingqing in the capital really misses you as much as you miss her! Why didn't I come to you?! Do you really matter? Did you really go back as she wanted? ”

Su Shangqing was forced to be anxious, she said anything, she clearly knew that Linshui Village was a paradise, and there was only one waterway at the entrance that was covered by layers, and the people in the village had always been in Linshui Village, unwilling to go out, let alone tell others that there was a village here, and even the government did not know about its existence.

If it weren't for Qi Jingqin's collision with the reef along the current and being changed to this tributary, he wouldn't have found such a village at all, but Qi Jingqin didn't know the way out.

She didn't want her Su Shangjing to leave her at all......

When Qi Jingqin heard this, he froze in place, looking at her without speaking, his mind was blank, he didn't expect Su Shangqing to say such a thing.

"Actually, what's wrong with Linshui Village? Don't you want to go back to Beijing anymore, right? If Qingqing in Beijing is willing to look for you, even if you are in Linshui Village, she will definitely find you, but these two months have passed, and there is nothing, it is obvious that she has given up on you!

Or, have you ever thought that this accident of yours was caused by Qingqing? You don't remember anything, it's me who has been taking care of you, it's me who has been helping you, it's me! It's Su Shangqing! But you are thinking about another Qingqing, the other Qingqing who doesn't know if it is harmful to you, what are you doing this for?

Isn't it good not to go back? Isn't it good to be in Linshui Village? What the hell am I not doing well, you must think like this, a person who will not come to you at all! What's the use of you going back, if she doesn't look for you, she doesn't love you anymore and doesn't want you, do you have to go back to ask for a heartbreak? Yes! Su Shangqing said, tears flowed, she was also surprised why she said such words, but these words are so real and profound.

Seeing her so hysterical, Qi Jingqin also looked incredulous, how could it be? Qingqing in memory shouldn't be such a person......

Hearing Su Shangqing say this, Qi Jingqin's head was about to explode, and he ran out all of a sudden.

Su Shangqing panicked all of a sudden, shouldn't he say such a thing to him, now that he is still alive, he is thinking about the Qingqing who went to Beijing, so he has always been willing to stay in Linshui Village, just waiting for Su Shangqing to be able to scrape together enough money to take him back to Shangjing, the belief in his heart is not the travel expenses, not the Beijing, but the Qingqing who has visited the church with him in his memory.

But what did he say, and he slandered the woman who gave him all hope in front of him.

Su Shangqing was so panicked, she wanted to chase Su Shangjing, but she couldn't take a step anyway, she didn't dare to face Su Shangjing, worried that he would hate herself because of this, and she really didn't know what to say to him, their way of getting along was to accompany each other, and Su Shangqing didn't say that she wanted Su Shangjing to stay by her side for the rest of her life, just an idea, 1 a beautiful idea, 1 finally one day she said such jealousy, she didn't know what to do to redeem it.

Qi Jingqin only felt that his brain hurt very much, when Su Shangqing was saying those words, Qi Jingqin had been trying hard to remember in his mind what Qingqing was like, but he couldn't remember anything.

Qi Jingqin ran out of Su Ji Tofu Shop, thinking about what Su Shangqing said while running, at first she didn't think of herself as a person from Linshui Village at all, he only knew that he had amnesia, as long as he remembered it, he could remember it when he returned to Shangjing, he only remembered Shangjing and Qingqing.

But now what Su Shangqing said, there seems to be some truth to it, if it is himself, Qingqing is missing, even if he turns the whole world over, he will find Qingqing, but two months have passed, and Qingqing has not come to find him.

Doesn't that mean that Qingqing doesn't care about herself at all?

Why did he fall into the river and finally float to this waterfront village, and Qingqing never sent someone to find him?

Is it really the same as Su Shangqing said, his own accident was planned by Qingqing?

What should I do now......

Qi Jingqin was very confused, he didn't know who he was, he had a name called Su Shangjing in Linshui Village, and when he left Linshui Village, he was nothing, he didn't remember anything, he didn't know anyone outside, and he couldn't remember Qingqing, who he was thinking about, and he couldn't remember what he looked like......

Qi Jingqin worked on the ridge for an afternoon, and when he returned to Su Ji Tofu Workshop in the evening, Su Shangqing was anxiously waiting for him outside the door, and when he saw him coming back, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern: "Where have you been?" Why are you only coming back now? ”

"Why didn't you come to me too?" Qi Jingqin lowered his head, his eyes were a little frustrated, "Qingqing, why didn't you come to me too?" ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" Su Shangqing felt a little guilty, "I didn't mean to say that, don't take it to heart, it's your wife, she must not have found it yet, don't take it to heart." ”

But how easy is it not to take it to heart?

Qi Jingqin was a little desperate, he looked at Su Shangqing who was hurriedly explaining to himself, hugged her, and buried his head in her neck.

Su Shangqing could feel that he was crying, sobbing softly, Su Shangqing didn't know how to comfort him, and kept regretting that he shouldn't have said those words.

After a long time, Qi Jingqin let go of Su Shangqing and went straight back to the room to rest.

Su Shangqing looked at his back, not knowing what to say to make up for his mistakes.

Early the next morning, Qi Jingqin went to the tofu shop as usual to help Su Shangqing move the tofu to the front to sell, still thinking in his heart that no matter what, he would have to go back to Shangjing, as long as he returned to Shangjing, then he would be able to figure out what the truth of the matter was, and he wanted to know what the reason for his disappearance.

This time it's not for Qingqing, it's just for yourself.

Su Shangqing was ashamed of him, so he tried his best to avoid him and not be with him.

Qi Jingqin sells tofu in front alone, he is handsome, and his mouth can speak well, which is naturally very pleasing.

Aunt Wang of the beef offal noodle shop comes to Su Ji Tofu Shop every day to eat tofu and buy tofu, otherwise who eats tofu every day, that thing has no taste.

Qi Jingqin and Aunt Wang talked, and said: "Auntie, if our old tofu is made into a sweet stuffed tofu, it must be a side dish in the store." ”

"Sweet stuffed tofu? What is the statement? Aunt Wang drank tofu brain and asked strangely.

This sweet stuffed tofu is a dim sum in the court, Qi Jingqin used to love it too, and he thought of it when he saw tofu, but now he can't remember where he ate it.

"It is to select a few pieces of tofu, wrap them in starch, then roll them in the egg liquid, put them into the oil pan and fry them slowly over low heat, then add some coloring seasonings and sugar, and stir-fry them again, which is sweet stuffed tofu." Qi Jingqin said with a smile, "Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, sweet and delicious, it can definitely attract business." ”

When Aunt Wang heard this, she went back and asked her cook to give it a try, and it was really possible, and she ordered tofu in Suji Tofu Shop in the future, and added a batch of large orders.

Su Shangqing asked embarrassedly: "Why do you still have to help sell tofu until now?" ”

Qi Jingqin said: "I'm not helping you, I'm helping myself." ”

Only by selling more tofu can I return to Shangjing earlier.

When Su Shangqing heard this, he felt very uncomfortable, in the end, it was still for that Qingqing, wasn't it?

Just as Su Shangqing lowered her head, Qi Jingqin took her hand and said, "Now that there is such a big customer, you must be too busy alone, let me help you, right?" I do the Su family. ”
