Learn to make tofu
Lin Wenjie was reading a book in Daddy Meng's study, and Daddy Meng also came back from school around noon. Because there are guests coming today, the students are all out of school early and can rest in the afternoon. At this time, several children of the Meng family and the students in the school were very happy, and hoped that this Master Lin could come to his father (grandfather, teacher) every day.
Lin Wenjie was very happy to see Daddy Meng. So he took out the books he was reading and asked Daddy Meng some questions that he couldn't understand. The two of them stayed in the study and began to discuss their different opinions.
Here, Mother Lu has now learned how to make tofu. It happened to be almost noon, in order to thank the Meng family for teaching him, and also to make friends with the Meng family, so he began to teach some of his cooking skills to Pomegranate.
Pomegranate and this Mother Lu are in the kitchen preparing the meal to be eaten at noon today. I should also like the braised pork I made last time, so I decided to make another meal of braised pork today, and then cook a few more dishes of the tofu I just made. There is also a dish of sauerkraut shredded meat made from tofu, leftover sauerkraut!
Lu's mother made a few more good dishes, thinking that her cooking skills could shock the Meng family. Nazhilu's mother was conquered by a meal of braised pork. At this time, I really began to re-understand this family. Not only can I make tofu, but I can also cook other meals, and I have never learned it myself. So I taught pomegranate some of the cooking skills I knew, hoping that I could learn the dish of braised pork.
When making this dish, Pomegranate did not avoid danger, and while doing it, he said to Lu's mother. It is because of this attitude that Lu's mother also taught pomegranates many other things. One old and one young, the two of them were busy in the kitchen. Lu's mother's sense of the Meng family has changed from looking down on her just now to admiring and then to getting close.
When the lunch meal was ready, Wu called Father Meng and Lin Wenzhuo to come to eat.
Lin Wenjie glanced at Mother Lu, and Mother Lu nodded. Lin Wenjie knew that tofu making should have been learned. So the mood is even better.
Lin Wenjie once again had dinner with the Meng family. At this time, the taste of the meal is different from the last time. But the taste is still delicious.
After eating, Lin Wenjie said goodbye to the Meng family.
At the time of farewell, let Mother Lu take out a small box from the carriage and hand it over to Father Meng in person. Said to Father Meng, "Brother Meng, this is to thank you for being able to provide me with the tofu recipe for free because of righteousness, and I really admire you for being a person when we hit it off at first sight, so I give you one of my favorite ancient books!" Please do not refuse. ”
Father Meng was a little hesitant at first, but when he heard that it was a book, he accepted it. And thank Lin Wenjie for sending himself this book. I used to look for this book in the bookstore for a long time but couldn't find it, but today I actually have the original manuscript, so I'm really happy.
Father Meng instantly felt that Lin Wenjie was really worth associating. I mentioned it casually at the time, and I found this book for myself. So he was more sincere in his follow-up interactions with the Lin family, which also avoided a lot of trouble for the Lin family, and also saved the Lin family many times.
Lin Wenjie knew that Lu's mother's family had learned to make tofu, and he was anxious to go home to see what the results were, so he said goodbye to the Meng family. When leaving, Lu's mother held two jars, one jar was the sauerkraut made by Lu's mother, and the other was the sauerkraut made by the Meng family, just so that she could go back and make tofu directly.
Lin Wenjie said goodbye to the Meng family, and the groom took Lin Wenjie and Lu's mother back to the county government in a carriage.
When he came back, it was still early, Lin Wenjie wanted to see how to make tofu, and Lu's mother soaked the soybeans in the kitchen and began to find Princess Li Hui and Lord Lin.
The two of them sat in the living room, and Lu's mother first said hello to the two of them and began to report on the affairs of the Meng family.
"The Meng family is really good, although they are ordinary people, but they are very reasonable. When I went to learn how to make tofu, the family didn't despise me because I was a slave, nor did they flatter me because I was a person brought by the young master, they just treated me with a normal heart. In addition, the Meng family taught me how to make tofu very seriously, without any reservations. In addition to making tofu, I also told me other recipes and things to pay attention to. The second daughter-in-law of the Meng family, Pomegranate, is very good at cooking, and if time comes, the craftsmanship will definitely be above me, and I want to take her as an apprentice. ”
The princess was very surprised, this Mother Lu is not an ordinary person, she came out of the imperial dining room, has been taking care of Princess Li Hui, and serving Princess Li Hui's three meals a day. So he is also more arrogant, but he actually has such a high evaluation of the Meng family, especially the second daughter-in-law of the Meng family called Pomegranate, who really wants to see the Meng family when she has time. Let his son and Lu's mother be willing to make friends.
Why does Mother Lu have such a good image of pomegranates? First, I am old and have no relatives anymore, so I want to pass on my life's cooking skills to others. Passing it on to other slaves and being afraid that these people will not care about themselves after they learn it, this kind of thing Mother Lu has seen too much. Second, from getting along with Pomegranate herself, this little woman is a kind person, and generally kind people don't have too ruthless hearts, so I think that Pomegranate can take care of herself occasionally in the future!
Looking at the Meng family, it will definitely soar in the future, and the young master of his own family values this Meng Xiucai so much, and his future will definitely not be bad. That's why Mother Lu will buy a good one in front of the princess and Lord Lin.
After Mother Lu finished reporting the matter to the princess and Lord Lin, she went to the kitchen and started to work. While you still have time, make a few more jars of sauerkraut. Mother Lu found that this sauerkraut is not only delicious, but also that sauerkraut water can also be used to make tofu, and it will definitely be indispensable to make tofu in the future, so she decided to make some sauerkraut in advance.
After dinner, Lord Lin and the princess finished their meal and waved everyone else in the kitchen away. Only Lu's mother is left with a miscellaneous worker, but she is a subordinate who can be trusted.
I saw that Lu's mother cooked the soy milk, filled two bowls in a bowl, and served it to Lin Wenjie and the princess. The two of them took the soy milk and smelled it, and found that there was a fragrance of beans, so they drank it slowly. Lu's mother said, "This is soy milk, the Meng family said that this soy milk is very good to drink, especially for married women." ”
After the two of them drank the soy milk, Mother Lu began to put sauerkraut water in the soy milk, and the soy milk, which was still white just now, solidified after a while. Lin Wenjie and Princess Li Hui, who watched it, were shocked. "Oh my God, it's amazing, it's amazing."
