Chapter 102: Tofu
"Well, get up and eat breakfast first! For lunch, let's make the loaches today, Niu Niu how you want to eat it! ”
It's too late to buy meat now, but fortunately, yesterday the child's grandfather caught a loach and came back, barely a meat!
You can give your child a little relief from cravings!
"I want to... Well... Well... Just cook it and eat it! ”
Zhou's question made Niuniu's mind instantly swell with countless ideas.
Stir-fried loaches, stir-fried loaches, braised loaches...
Although she has eaten light dishes for several years, Niuniu is still the person with heavy taste in her bones, and she likes heavy oil and spicy things.
As soon as I thought of the secretion of these saliva, the secretion rate skyrocketed, and I almost couldn't control it.
But when she thought about the oil and spicy again, Niuniu was immediately deflated. A lot of pride and ambition swallowed in his mouth, and weakly said a way to eat that could be made according to the current conditions.
"Mother, can I buy some tofu and put it in? It's sure to be delicious when stewed! ”
This is Niu Niu's last stubbornness.
That's not too much to ask! My mother should agree!
Niuniu thought silently in her heart, raised her eyes and quietly observed her mother's expression.
"Yes! But Niuniu wants to buy it with her mother! Otherwise, you won't have to eat! ”
After packing up everything, Zhou pulled Niuniu out of the house.
"Alright, let's go and eat breakfast first! If you grind and chirp again, it's time to get cold! ”
"Yes, yes! Mother, where are we going to buy tofu? ”
"The village next door! Don't you know? ”
"That's so far!"
I didn't participate in buying tofu Niuniu last time, and I don't know where it came from. I saw the eldest aunt holding a bowl, which contained white and tender tofu cubes.
So when her mother said that she was going to buy tofu in the next village, Niuniu was very surprised. The distance between the two villages is not just a few steps away!
"Who told you not to get up early, I came to our village this morning to sell! At that time, I didn't know that you were going to eat it, and this thing was not tolerant, so I didn't buy it for fear that it would break! ”
Speaking of which, Zhou also felt a little pity. If I hadn't hesitated this morning and made a decisive move, I wouldn't have had to make another trip.
"I don't know~"
It's just a bed for a while, who knows if you'll miss it. I don't know what the tofu seller is doing so early, does anyone buy it?
It's a good job to live by herself, but it's a pity that not everyone can sleep until the sun rises like her.
"Isn't there any tofu in our village?"
"There used to be, but no one has done it since Uncle Hu and Aunt Hu passed away one after another. The old man has no heirs, and all the utensils for making tofu are stored in the ancestral hall! ”
"Huh? How could no one do it? Shouldn't others learn? ”
"It's not impossible, it's just that the situation was a little complicated. You eat first! ”
pressed the eager Niu Niu on the chair, and forced her to eat.
"I~"
"Eat first!"
Before the words could be rejected, Niuniu bowed her head and drank porridge with a bitter melon face.
Alas! What's going on!
Today's porridge is a bit bitter! Did you accidentally sprinkle Coptis chinensis?
Holding back the curiosity in her heart, Niuniu drank the contents of the bowl in one go.
"So fast! Let's eat some more! ”
Zhou looked at Niuniu's movements and thought that she was hungry, so he hurriedly gave Niuniu the last bit of the bottom of the basin.
"Mother~"
"It's okay, you eat! There are still in the pot! ”
Now it's really dumb and can't say it.
Well! You can't eat fast, you have to eat slowly.
Niuniu took a small sip, and her eyes kept glancing in the direction of her mother.
As soon as I saw her put the bowl down, she hurriedly cleaned up the rest of her bowl. It's almost a second or two apart.
"Mother, tell me about it!"
wiped her mouth perfunctorily with her sleeve, and Niuniu couldn't wait to speak.
"Okay, okay, I'll tell you, it's not easy to eat!"
Zhou cleaned up the bowl on the table,
"Give the chopsticks to my mother!"
Knowing that Niuniu got up late, so when there was something to do, the big guy didn't have to wait for Niuniu to come to eat together.
This is the case today, so only Zhou and Niuniu are in the entire courtyard at this time.
"Hmm!"
Picking up the chopsticks scattered on the table, Niu Niu followed behind her mother.
Zhou also took a fancy to Niuniu's curiosity about this, and she didn't give up until she got an answer. I deliberately asked Niu Niu to do these things.
"Help my mother hand over the rag!"
"Take these washed dishes to the cupboard! And chopsticks! ”
......
In the last second when Niuniu's patience was about to run out, Zhou finally spoke.
"Uncle Hu was not born and raised here, he fled. Back then, there was a flood in their hometown, and everything was flooded. ”
Thinking of these past events, Zhou's face was full of sadness,
"This way of escape is not easy to walk, Aunt Hu's child was only more than half a year old at that time. The money on his body was accidentally stolen, he didn't eat well and there was no milk, and the child didn't have to eat. The environment was difficult, and the boy did not survive in the end. ”
"That's it~ It's a pity~ Then why didn't they have children later~"
Natural and man-made disasters cannot be avoided in any era, and can only be said to reduce losses.
But at this time, there are not many ways to reduce losses. Whether or not you can survive is really just a matter of fate.
"That child was originally considered a middle-aged child by Aunt Hu, but she hurt her body when she gave birth. After that, there was no movement! ”
"But Uncle Hu is also affectionate and righteous, he has always been in harmony with Aunt Hu, and he has never blushed."
In this era, no heirs will be poked in the back. But the people of Qingshan Village knew their situation, and they felt distressed from the bottom of their hearts.
will not mention this matter in front of them, and tell their children to visit the door more, and their business will try their best to help take care of it.
......
Zhou made things clear, and he was full of emotion in his heart.
In the final analysis, it is also Uncle Hu's blessing, they have met such a good group of people in Qingshan Village.
"Mother, why haven't they taught others their craft?"
Niuniu sighed for a long time before remembering her original intention of asking about this matter.
If I could get that set of tofu tools back...
"Hey~"
Touching her little chin, Niuniu couldn't help but laugh.
"It's not that they don't teach, it's that others don't want to learn!"
"Why?"
Now Niuniu is really puzzled, some people teach and others don't learn, doesn't it say that a craft is the foundation of life? Don't you want such a good opportunity?
"This is Uncle Hu's ability to settle down, although he was old at that time, his body was still very strong. Although Uncle Hu spoke first, the people in the village were embarrassed! ”
"Hmm~"
"But once this disease starts, no one can predict it!"
Zhou stopped talking, as if he didn't want to talk about it anymore.
Niuniu can also predict what happened after that.
It's really unpredictable, and people have good and bad luck!
