"Yes. I want to be free of charge to watch the whole version of the whole version, please - 100 degrees - search - " Xiao Qiongzhi nodded.

"Then when I have a few days to spare, I will peel all the sun-dried mountain chestnuts I picked at home, and then send them to you for use!" The round-faced aunt made a decision immediately.

Xiao Qiongzhi shook her head with a smile and said, "Auntie, if the mountain chestnuts are peeled, they won't be kept for too long, don't be busy peeling the shells first." I'll talk about it when I need to buy it from you later. ”

"Little master, this matter, all of us, we also discussed it with the clan last time, we picked the mountain chestnuts home, and gave them to you in the future, so you don't need to spend money to buy them."

"If you feel embarrassed, then make food out of mountain chestnuts, and after you earn money, send a few more children from the clan to go to county school." The tall aunt also came over at this time and said with a smile.

Xiao Qiongzhi was inspired, thought about it, and said: "Auntie, I understand everyone's intentions, but not all of your children can go to county school, so let all of you come to help me support the children who go to county school in the future, which is unfair to you." ”

"Otherwise, when the time comes, all families with children going to county school, mountain chestnuts will not spend another money to collect, as for families who do not go to county school, they still come according to the rules and spend money to collect."

"No, little master, don't shirk. You don't know, all the children in the village, as long as they can read, must gather the strength of the whole village to provide for them, which is a family rule that has long existed in our village. The tall aunt immediately stopped laughing and said seriously.

Several other aunts also nodded their heads, expressing their affirmation of the tall aunt's statement.

Xiao Qiongzhi doubted this reason, and it was estimated that they had discussed it in advance, and they were ready to question it.

Zhou Dayong suddenly looked at her and said, "Zhi'er, what this sister-in-law said is true. When I went to the township school and the county school, the patriarch used to find my brother and talk about the fact that according to the clan rules, the clansmen in the village would pay for my education. ”

"It was my brother who insisted that he could afford me to study, and when he couldn't afford it, he would trouble the clansmen again, so the patriarch didn't say anything."

"I see, I see." Xiao Qiongzhi nodded, and didn't question the tall aunts anymore.

However, she didn't plan to really accept everyone's mountain chestnuts for free, because she didn't think that the people in the village were obliged to support the children in the village to go to school.

In the afternoon, as soon as Xiao Qiongzhi finished eating noon, he began to prepare to make mountain chestnut tofu.

She went to the kitchen and looked at the two large barrels of mountain chestnuts that Liu Wuxiu and Zhou Dayong had peeled and soaked on the first day.

They have been soaked twice as large as the original yam eggs, and when they are pinched in their hands, the texture is no longer hard, as long as they are forced, they can be pinched flat.

This is very much in line with the first step in making mountain chestnut tofu that her grandmother's relatives said in the world she remembers.

She excitedly took one and put it in her mouth to chew.

Fortunately, it is only slightly astringent, mainly with the unique fragrance of mountain chestnuts themselves.

This is very much in line with the second step of making mountain chestnut tofu that her grandmother's relatives said in the world she remembers.

She was relieved, went to the main house, and found the spices such as astermom, cloves, dried ginger, and mint that she bought back by the way when she took Liu Wuxiu and Zhou Dayong to the pharmacy to buy medicine last time, grabbed a few handfuls each, wrapped them in a handkerchief, and handed them to Zhou Dayong.

Then, let him use the stone mill at home to grind it, and then still wrap it in a handkerchief, tie the mouth of the handkerchief, and put it aside for later use.

Immediately afterwards, she called Chu Yunniang to her, pointed to the two large barrels of mountain chestnuts, and said to Chu Yunniang: "Mother, these mountain chestnuts have been soaked, please use soybeans to make tofu, first grind them into a pulp, then mix with water, use gauze to flow back and forth, drain the residue, and finally, boil it into soybean milk in a pot, pour it out, and drain the excess soybean milk water with gauze." ”

Speaking of this, she looked at Zhou Dayong and said, "Second uncle, there are a lot of mountain chestnuts to grind, which is very laborious, and the residue and soybean milk in the back are also very laborious. ”

"Okay, in this kitchen, I can't do anything else, I'm doing it, in the future, you just call me for help." Zhou Dayong readily agreed.

Chu Yunniang was a little worried, and whispered to Xiao Qiongzhi: "Zhi'er, Wuxiu has beaten me before, and he has experience and can do things well with me. ”

"And this grinding mountain chestnuts, draining the residue, and draining the soy milk water are all meticulous work, I'm afraid that he can't do it very finely, and he can't do it well with me, and when the tofu comes out, there will be lumps or something."

"No, mother, you forgot, and me, I will be on the side, staring at the second uncle." Xiao Qiongzhi had already prepared.

Actually, she had seen Liu Wuxiu help Chu Yunniang make tofu before, and she knew very well that Liu Wuxiu could do it well.

It's just that Zhou Dayong said before that Liu Wuxiu vomited a lot and a lot of blood in the middle of the night last night, which fully shows that the internal injuries on Liu Wuxiu's body are particularly deep.

Although the effect of drinking Tai Sui broth is indeed magical, it has restored her memory and made Zhou Dayong have no old problem of snoring, but these are not a matter compared to Liu Wuxiu's injuries.

After all, none of this will obviously affect the life expectancy, and the injuries on Liu Wuxiu's body can kill Liu Wuxiu soon.

Before Liu Wuxiu successfully passed Zheng Bang and said that she could live for seven days after taking his life-saving pill, she didn't dare to let her do hard work.

This time, it can only be used in these things, and it is completely a layman Zhou Dayong.

"That's good." Chu Yunniang's eyes lit up and she didn't say anything more.

However, her concerns are indeed very reasonable.

Zhou Dayong is not short of strength, but he is not careful, and it is very difficult to master unfamiliar tools.

When grinding the mountain chestnut pulp, it was okay and there was no problem.

When he used gauze to drain the residue of the mountain chestnut pulp, he always did not flow well, so that he always fell the residue into the pulp.

After Xiao Qiongzhi reminded him many times, seeing that he was still not much better, he finally gave up treatment for him and had to go to Zheng Bang for help.

Zheng Bang is sharpening arrows.

Although he is also a complete layman in these matters, he is very confident in his hands-on ability and readily agreed.

After arriving in the kitchen, he roughly asked Xiao Qiongzhi how to use gauze to drain the residue of mountain chestnut pulp, and then looked at Chu Yunniang next to him, how to operate, and quickly learned, as soon as he got started, he felt like a veteran, and he did the work better than Chu Yunniang.

provoked Zhou Dayong to widen his eyes on the side, and praised again and again: "Brother Zheng, you are really powerful, little brother bow down!" ”

"It's because your hands-on ability is too poor, it's not that I'm good." Zheng Bang glanced at him lightly and said very shamelessly.

Zhou Dayong couldn't help but blush, and silently returned to the courtyard and peeled the chestnut shells.

provoked Xiao Qiongzhi to glance at his back, turned his head to Zheng Bang with a smile and said: "Second uncle has also begun to change his temper in the past few days, uncle, you don't save face for him when you talk so much, and he actually didn't argue with you." ”

"A really smart person, the more things he experiences, the faster he grows, Zhi'er, this is normal." Zheng Bang still seemed very calm.

But what he said was actually from the side, affirming that Zhou Dayong was a smart person.

Xiao Qiongzhi felt happy for Zhou Dayong in his heart, and he was honored.

Because, Zheng Bang rarely praises people and praises people for being smart, and in her impression, in addition to praising her, it is this time that she praises Zhou Dayong.
