Chapter 205: Soy Milk and Heavy Rain

Lu Yu still caught a fat grass carp and went back as a dish for the evening.

Carrying two buckets, as soon as he returned home with Yan Xiding, Lu Yu went to the backyard and carefully poured the female fish and fry in the bucket into the pool. The fish hadn't been out of the pool for long, and they hadn't been in the bucket for long, and they seemed to be in good spirits at this point.

Lu Yu didn't know how to raise fish, and the fish fell into the pool, so he didn't care about them anymore. Lu Yu only hoped in his heart that these fish would survive and grow up slowly.

Lu Yu was in a good mood today, he felt that his home was now looking more and more like that. Lu Yu has several houses where people can live, and there is a large yard with a vegetable garden, fruit trees, and even a small fish pond. A few acres of land outside the village and a few sheep in the pen are all Lu Yu's property. Moreover, he had a valley and a few acres of fertile land in the valley.

Lu Yu thought to himself, when he and Yan Xi'an get married, this day will be considered perfect.

The fat fish caught in the afternoon was cut into two pieces by Lu Yu, one was braised and the other was boiled in soup. Yan Xiding said that he wanted to eat tofu and stewed fish, and asked Lu Yu when he would grind tofu again.

Lu Yu said that he was usually alone, too lazy to get it, and would wait for the next time Yan Xi'an and them came.

Yan Xiding was not convinced, he said: "My sister is not here, but I am here, why don't you grind tofu?" ”

Lu Yu asked, "What's so delicious about tofu, do you really want to eat it?" ”

"I want to eat it, the tofu is delicious, and the soy milk and tofu brain are delicious." Yan Xiding said: "When you cook soy milk, go to my house and get some white sugar, I don't drink soy milk without white sugar." ”

Lu Yu glanced at him and said secretly: "If you don't drink, do I still ask you?" ”

Lu Yu still decided to grind some tofu. He originally had plans to make wine, but thinking that there was not much food at home, the matter of making wine would be put on hold until after the autumn harvest.

The beans were soaked in the stream for a day, and Lu Yu grinded them in the backyard in the afternoon. Yan Xiding only likes to eat, and doesn't like to work, so Lu Yu grinds by himself, and puts beans in the grinding eye by himself.

Fortunately, Yan Xiding consciously went to herd sheep later, otherwise Lu Yu would have to herd sheep.

After grinding the beans and draining the okara, Lu Yu was about to start cooking soy milk.

Before boiling soy milk, Lu Yu went to Jinhua City, he wanted to take Yan Xi'an and them, and the newly ground tofu was, of course, Yan Xi'an had to taste it.

Yan Jibai and his wife didn't go, Lu Yu took the two girls back to Yangshan Village, and bought some sugar in the city by the way. When the three of them arrived home, Yan Xiding was still herding sheep outside.

With someone to help light the fire, cooking soy milk is much faster. When the soy milk is boiled, it should be poured into a bucket of water, stirred with alum, and then gradually condensed into tofu.

The hot soybean milk before it is condensed into tofu is the kind that Yan Xiding likes to drink.

Lan Shaofang had never drunk soy milk or eaten tofu, and when Yan Xi'an handed her a bowl of steaming, milky soy milk with sugar, she was a little scared.

Lan Shaofang didn't even dare to look at the soy milk, shook her head and said, "If you don't drink it, it's poisonous." ”

Lu Yu was a little puzzled and asked Lan Shaofang: "How can it be poisonous?" ”

Yan Xi'an also said: "Don't worry, it's not poisonous, it's delicious." ”

"Don't drink it, it's white, it's poisonous."

Lu Yu somewhat understood, it was Lan Shaofang's more than ten years of experience in the mountains and forests that told her that all milky white juice was dangerous. So Lu Yu also filled himself with a bowl of soy milk, then raised his neck and drank it dry in one go.

"Look, it's not poisonous, you can drink it." Yan Xi'an put the soy milk bowl in Lan Shaofang's hand.

Lan Shaofang hesitated, struggled for a while, and finally mustered up the courage and took a shallow sip.

Of course, the soy milk is not poisonous, the fresh soy milk with sugar tastes quite beautiful, and after only one sip, Lan Shaofang liked it, so she didn't care that the soy milk was a little hot, and she also leaned her neck and drank a bowl in one go.

After drinking a bowl, Lan Shaofang went to fill another bowl by herself and asked Yan Xi'an to add sugar to her.

After drinking the second bowl, Lan Shaofang wiped his mouth and said that it was delicious, and asked Yan Xiding where he went, and he would also give him a drink.

Lu Yu said that Yanxi was herding sheep, and he had already left a few bowls for him to drink when he came back.

Lan Shaofang nodded, and said, "Then won't he be cold when he comes back?" Is it good to be cold? ”

"It's not good to taste cold, we can give him hot and hot." Lu Yu secretly said in his heart: "Xiding is still not good to you in vain, and you will also miss him." ”

The process of condensing tofu, pressing tofu and cutting tofu is amazing to Lan Shaofang, she doesn't understand why the soy milk in the soup can be condensed into pieces of white tofu. In fact, what the principle is, Lu Yu doesn't know, he can't explain it.

In short, the tofu is delicious.

Yan Xiding came back from herding the sheep, and when he saw Lan Shaofang, he was stunned for a moment, and then walked over with a smile, but he didn't show how excited he was.

Lan Shaofang was very happy, she couldn't wait to tell Yan Xiding that they had drunk soy milk today, and left him several bowls, and told him to hurry up and drink it.

Yan Xiding had long known that he was "shy", he smiled, blushed, and lowered his head.

Lu Yu didn't plan to eat fish again today, but with fresh tofu, if he didn't get a fish back and stewed it, he seemed to be a little sorry for this tender white tofu.

Yan Xiding likes tofu, and Lan Shaofang likes it more than him. The soft and smooth tofu is taken out of the fish broth and put in the mouth as if it is about to melt. The tip of the tongue is soft, the tofu is softer than the tip of the tongue, the fresh tofu is fragrant, and it is mixed with the fresh fragrance of fresh fish, which makes Lan Shaofang like it very much.

So Lan Shaofang said that she would bring some tofu back to Jinhua City, so that Yan Xi'an and her parents could also taste it.

Lu Yu felt that this "savage girl" was quite conscientious, so he said, "Okay, I'll send you back that night, and I'll bring some." ”

"Are they going back in the evening?" Yan Xi hadn't seen Lan Shaofang for a few days, and of course he didn't want to be separated from her so soon.

"Uh-huh." Because Yan Jibai and his wife were not there, Lu Yu felt that Message Xi'an lived in his own house, which would be bad for people to watch.

Yan Xiding was not happy: "Didn't they just come in the afternoon?" Why are you in such a hurry to go back, or you should leave tomorrow. ”

Lu Yu shook his head and said, "That's not good, the two of them have to go home and sleep at night." ”

"Okay." Yan Xiding ate a piece of tofu and said, "Then I'll go back too." ”

Lu Yu said without hesitation: "No, you have to help me herd sheep here, I'm very busy." ”

"No, I'm going back."

"Then you go back by yourself."

Yan Xiding was angry, but he didn't dare to attack, so he could only put down his chopsticks angrily and stopped eating.

Lu Yu smiled again and said to Lan Shaofang: "Look at Xiding, I'm so busy, he won't help me herd sheep, you say he is very disobedient." ”

Lan Shaofang nodded very seriously, looked at Yan Xiding again and said, "Yes, Xiding, you are disobedient." ”

Yan Xiding said helplessly: "How can I be disobedient, I work every day here, and I am tired to death." ”

"Then you stay and help Brother Da Yu herd the sheep." Lan Shaofang ordered him.

"Okay, then I'll stay." Yan Xiding looked like he had no love.

Yan Xi'an sneered and said to Lu Yu: "Uncle, you see, the wicked still have to be grinded by the wicked, and this stinky boy from Xiding only listens to Shaofang's words." ”

Yan Xiding tilted his head and said, "I didn't have it, I promised Brother Da Yu and said that I would help him work." ”

Lan Shaofang also said: "Xi'an, you talk nonsense, I'm not a wicked person, I didn't grind Xiding." ”

"Shaofang, I'm not a wicked person."

……

In the evening, Lu Yu still sent Yan Xi'an and Lan Shaofang back, and more than half of the newly ground tofu was also carried over with a bucket. Some vegetables can already be bought in the county, but the grain is still rarely sold, and even if the grain stores occasionally sell them, they are quickly sold out.

Not long after sending Yan Xi'an back, it rained again in the sky, and the rain was still falling quite heavily, and it was getting heavier and heavier. Lu Yu took a look in the backyard, and the roof made of hay and branches in the sheepfold couldn't stop the pouring rain, and the six goats were drenched. Lu Yu felt sorry for the sheep, so he put them in the house.

It was a heavy rain, and it had been raining all night, and Lu Yu was still a little worried that the rain would not stop.

In the morning, the rain stopped. Everything outside was as if it had been freshly washed, clean and spotless.

Some of the vegetable seedlings in the vegetable garden were discounted by the sudden spring rain, some branches and leaves of the fruit trees were knocked off, and many lotus leaves were pierced.

The sheep in the house were taken out by Lu Yu, and Yan Xiding pinched his nose after coming in and said that the house stinks.

Lu Yu said that there will be some smell on the sheep, and Xiding has been herding sheep every day recently, and his body also stinks. Yan Xiding sniffed both of his armpits, and then said that he didn't stink.

The spring rain knocks down all kinds of leaves, which is not necessarily a bad thing.

Lu Yu cleaned up in the backyard for a while, then went to the pool and found a fish lying on the bank of the stream.

It was one of the three female fish, and it should not have been long before she jumped up, but it was still alive at this time, and the mouth of the fish was opening and closing, as if she was silently crying for help.

Lu Yu's spells can not only be used to heal injuries and diseases, but also to save fish. After Lu Yu's treatment, the unlucky and lucky female fish came alive again, potentially under a lotus stem, and kept spitting bubbles.

The water in the pool is already full and almost level with the shore, and Lu Yu is not worried about overflowing, because the water by the pond is lower, and the water is full, and it will flow out from that side, Lu Yu has already dug a culvert to the outside of the courtyard, and the water will flow directly out of the courtyard at that time.

But now there are fish in the pool, in order to prevent the fish from swimming out of the culvert when the water rises, Lu Yu made a barrage net out of wooden strips and bamboo strips, and inserted it at the entrance of the culvert.

The sheep still have to be herded, because Lu Yu has been busy in the yard, Yan Xiding consciously led the goat out. Lu Yu was busy for a long time, and then he even forgot to make breakfast.
