Chapter 16: Forethought
At dinner, Lin Ruochen excitedly told his sister, "The four-wheeled vehicle is almost ready, no, it's not a four-wheeled vehicle anymore, just like An An said in the morning to put two wheels on the chair, well... Then call it two wheelchairs. ”
Lin Yu'an looked at him stunned.
"Wheelchair?"
I didn't expect that it was only half a day, and it was made by him, and the wisdom and action of the ancient people should not be underestimated!
Lin Ruochen pondered the word wheelchair that his sister said, and felt better than two wheelchairs, so he smiled and said, "Okay, I'll call it a wheelchair in the future." ”
“……”
Lin Yu'an pursed her lips.
I don't know why, I feel a little bit cool in my heart!
If only this matter could be resolved smoothly!
Before going to bed, Lin Yu'an asked Qinghe to soak soybeans again, this time soaking two catties, because to test the appropriate proportion, a little more soy milk is needed.
"Well, I'll go now!"
Early the next morning, Lin Yu'an asked Steward He to find someone to help push the stone mill.
Ah Heng has already followed Lin Ruochen, and now he is accompanying him to make a wheelchair, it is said that it is almost ready to use, if it were not for the forced persuasion of Steward He last night, it is estimated that he may have to stay up late to complete it.
Lin Yu'an couldn't help but laugh when he heard Qinghe's words.
This is the same as the technical house grandma she saw on Xiaopo Station before, they are all "Liver Emperors".
Thanks to yesterday's experience, today's bean juice is also quickly grinded.
"Divide it into four buckets, and use this to put a pot out." Lin Yu'an pointed to the soup basin on the kitchen table.
"Yes!"
Qinghe and the cook hurriedly responded.
Last night, Lin Yu'an had a dream and kept watching a documentary about using plaster to order tofu, which clearly showed the specific method of tofu.
After she woke up, she remembered that the video she had watched at Xiaopo Station, could it be that this was the golden finger she had crossed over and was given away?
"Miss, it's divided!"
"Hmm."
Lin Yu'an retracted his thoughts and began to operate carefully.
She put the ground gypsum powder into a bowl, then scooped a little bean juice from the soup basin and added some water to mix thoroughly.
"You filter this bucket of bean juice and then add water and boil it into soy milk, the ratio of soy juice to water... Well, it's better to be one to six. ”
In fact, she remembers it very clearly, but she can't let everyone know, alas, she also has times when she fights for acting.
"Good!"
The cook was very excited, but she didn't expect the young lady to teach herself to make this soy milk without suspicion, and Miss Qinghe didn't stop her anymore.
Lin Yu'an looked at the actions of the cook, and nodded with satisfaction, when she had dinner last night, she inquired with Lin Ruochen about the cook's situation, and learned that she and Steward He were both born to the Yun family who married with Lin's mother, so they are very loyal.
Anyway, the production method of soy milk is no secret, so leave this job to the cook, and she and Qinghe also have time to do other things.
Soon the soy milk was boiling.
Lin Yu'an held the gypsum water and explained the method to the cook and Qinghe.
Because the proportions are not easy to grasp, she used a spoonful of gypsum powder to mix the water this time, and she had just poured the mixed gypsum water into another bowl to remove the sediment inside.
After the soybean milk boiled and was cold, Lin Yu'an stood on the stool, ready to demonstrate to the cook and Qinghe.
The two nervously held on to each other with their hands, worried that Lin Yu'an would accidentally fall.
Qinghe kept persuading her to stand aside and explain, and then just do it herself.
But Lin Yu'an didn't agree.
"This gypsum water should be poured in three times."
Qing He saw that she had already started the operation, so she no longer persuaded so as not to be distracted, but the virtual support had been changed to real support.
Although it was a little itchy, Lin Yu'an understood that it was for her safety.
After pouring the gypsum water, Lin Yu'an counted in his heart, and was silent for about three minutes. The visible appearance was clumped, and she picked up the chopsticks next to her and inserted them. went down, and the chopsticks did not fall.
"Wow, it was just a pot of water just now!"
Qinghe was still a little girl, and immediately exclaimed.
The cook's eyes widened.
"Okay, put it first, well, put it for about two quarters of an hour, and then scoop it into the wooden frame over there." Lin Yu'an didn't expect to succeed once, she smiled with satisfaction, then pointed to the square wooden frame next to her, and jumped off the stool after speaking.
The wooden frame was brought to Lin Ruochen yesterday morning, and it was sent over in less than the afternoon, and the workmanship was very fine.
The cook hurriedly replied: "Yes! ”
While waiting, Lin Yu'an deliberately scooped out a few bowls of tofu brains, "Qinghe, you send it to my brother and Ah Heng, let's use it as breakfast." ”
The brother and sister were busy today, so they didn't have breakfast together.
"Hmm!"
Qinghe hurriedly picked up the tray and walked out, she also wanted to see how the tofu that the young lady said was made.
Lin Yu'an and the cook picked up a bowl of tofu brain and began to eat.
Because there is not much water added, these tofu brains are relatively thick, which is different from what Lin Yu'an used to eat, but the taste is still soft, but nothing is added, and there is only a faint bean fragrance after swallowing it.
However, eating such a bowl in winter is very comfortable.
Qinghe quickly ran back.
"Ah, Miss, why did you eat first?"
"Just tried the taste." Lin Yu'an pushed the remaining bowl in front of her, "Now the temperature is just right, you can drink it directly without blowing cold." ”
Qing He hurriedly picked up the bowl, learned from Lin Yu'an's usual way of eating, and tried a little bite first, "Ah, this is delicious!" Miss, you are so good! ”
Lin Yu'an smiled.
If she had added seasoning, she would have liked it even more.
I'll prepare some toppings tomorrow, but I don't know if this will start a salty and sweet party dispute.
Lin Yu'an can be sweet and salty, but she will still choose sweet.
Soon the time came, and under the command of Lin Yu'an, Qing He and the cook filled a wooden frame with tofu brains, covered the gauze and put a wooden board on it, and the three of them cooperated to lift a washed stone and press it on it.
Qing He asked a little tangled: "Miss, a bucket of bean juice used up a wooden frame, but there are still three barrels left here, and there is only one wooden frame left, what should I do?" ”
"It's very simple, one bucket continues to make tofu, and then the remaining bucket is made into soy milk, and the other bucket is made into tofu brain, so that everyone can taste it."
The cook was very moved.
Her young lady, like her wife, was very kind to the servants of the house.
In fact, this was all thought out by Lin Yu'an in advance.
The soy milk has been decided to be dedicated to the emperor, and it is estimated that this tofu will not be able to run away, in order to prevent those people from taking the opportunity to make trouble, it is necessary to let as many people as possible eat it and spread the news.
When the public eats it, it is fine, but if the emperor eats it and something happens, it is the problem of the person who handles it, and it has nothing to do with them who offer the formula.
This is Lin Yu'an's preparation in advance in order to save his life.
Since it takes about three or four hours to press the tofu, Qinghe and the cook began to process the remaining bean juice.
Lin Yu'an sat leisurely and read a book.
