Chapter 22: Tokens of Love
Wu Shuang rushed to find that the concentration of the brine was low, which caused the tofu to not condense tightly, but turned into bean curd, which fell apart as soon as it came out of the pot.
Because they are the mother liquor left over from the seawater salt, the concentration cannot be controlled, and it can only be judged by experience, but this is too difficult for a beginner like Ergou.
He will only follow Professor Wu Shuang's steps one by one, and this kind of mistake will inevitably occur.
It takes a lot of soybeans to make a box of tofu, Ergou and her sister have been busy since they were in Yin, if this box of tofu is wasted, their wasted effort is not counted, this bean is bought with money.
The two dogs were about to cry, and Zhao was also sad, she hugged her younger brother and said, "It's okay, isn't it just a box of tofu, let's make it again." ”
Wu Shuang took the box of bean curd, although it was not formed, but it was quite tight, "Who said that it needs to be remade, there is such a way to eat it like this, you wait." ”
Wu Shuang divided this part of the bean curd into two parts, one part sprinkled with sugar, and the other part was sprinkled with sauce in the small kitchen of the system.
"Sister Xiaoshuang, you are so amazing, you can save the bad tofu."
A box of spoiled tofu turned into two buckets of bean curd, which were soon bought by the surrounding villagers.
After receiving the money, Ergou said that he would give Wu Shuang a part of it.
Wu Shuang refused to ask for it, Zhao said: "You just stay, you taught you the ability to make tofu, and we have nothing to repay you, take a part of the money we earn every day to you, and we can also feel at ease." ”
After a busy day, when he returned home, Song Qingyuan and Shen Ruoran had already returned, Shen Ruoran was full of spring, and his tone of speech was three points higher than usual, revealing an irrepressible excitement.
Song Qingyuan's expression didn't change much, and he still didn't talk much in the crowd.
After returning to the room, Shen Ruoran showed Wu Shuang how he got along with Song Qingyuan today, and he also bought her chestnut cake, but unfortunately she ate it all the way.
Wu Shuang sneered, "You have eaten all the pastries, you still eat so many meals at night, and your cousin's belly is big enough." ”
Shen Ruoran was used to hearing this kind of words, so she was not annoyed, but said: "Xiaoshuang, you see that it is quite smooth for me to go with Song Gongzi today, so it is better to let the two of us go in the future." ”
Wu Shuang: "What are you going to do?" Going shopping to see the sights? Going for chestnut cake? Can you negotiate with Boss Wang or can you see the customer's reaction to the dish and come back to continue to improve? ”
Shen Ruoran was forced to be speechless by this series of cross-examinations, she suddenly remembered something, and said, "But Song Gongzi likes me, and he wants to go to the town with me." ”
Wu Shuang's eyes showed disbelief, Shen Ruoran took out the jade pendant and shook it in front of Wu Shuang's eyes, "This is the love token that Song Gongzi gave me, this is the letter, right?" ”
The jade pendant has a unique shape, Wu Shuang recognized it as Song Qingyuan's thing at a glance, no wonder I haven't seen him wearing it on his body for the past few days, it was originally given to Shen Ruoran.
Wu Shuang stopped talking, staring at Yu Pei in a daze.
What Shen Ruoran wants is this kind of reaction, girls are thin-skinned, and feelings are always difficult to retreat, even if Wu Shuang is interesting to Song Qingyuan, now that they have exchanged love tokens, they will inevitably leave the scene gloomily, find a corner and cry sadly.
In the future, she will no longer pester Song Qingyuan.
It was just a moment's effort, and Shen Ruoran had already thought about what kind of wedding dress she would wear when she married into the Song family, the phoenix crown and the xia veil must look good on her.
Wu Shuang smacked for a while, feeling that there was something strange about this matter, the man was not married to the woman, if the two of them were in love, there was no need to shave their heads and pick their heads like now, Song Qingyuan was not the kind of person who twisted, and he would definitely give Shen Ruoran a response, but now it seems that it is not the case at all.
After a while, Shen Ruoran began to say sour words next to him, "Song Gongzi looks like a talent, and it is normal to please girls, not to mention Xiaoshuang, you have been with him for so long, it is inevitable that you will have some feelings, I don't blame you, but now that Song Gongzi has expressed his heart to me, you have to be a little measured." ”
Wu Shuang hehe, and decided to take a gamble, "Song Gongzi said a few days ago that the jade pendant he often wears is missing, so he asked me to find it, why did he run away from his cousin." ”
In Wu Shuang's words, Shen Ruoran's expression froze, and then returned to his senses, "You may be mistaken, this is obviously given to me by Song Gongzi himself." ”
Wu Shuang kept staring at Shen Ruoran after she said that, and the expression on her face had already betrayed her.
Wu Shuang smiled and remained silent.
Shen Ruoran looked at her expression, but she didn't think much about it.
Seeing Song Qingyuan the next day, Wu Shuang looked at his bare belt, and pretended to ask casually: "Song Qingyuan, what about the jade pendant you wore before?" ”
Shen Ruoran happened to pass by the two of them, and when she heard the conversation between the two, she suddenly shuddered.
Song Qingyuan said indifferently: "Lost." ”
"Well, that's really unfortunate, you didn't look around?" Wu Shuang raised her eyebrows, looked over at Shen Ruoran, and deliberately raised her voice.
Shen Ruoran covered his face and planned to dodge, but was stopped by Wu Shuang coldly, "Cousin, don't go, I remember seeing a similar jade pendant from you, I don't know if Song Gongzi lost it." ”
Song Qingyuan twisted his eyebrows, his gaze wandering between Wu Shuang and Shen Ruoran.
It was originally a worthless gadget, he took it with him casually, and he didn't think much about it when he lost it, how did he take this thing out and talk about it at this time.
Shen Ruoran's face was flushed, but he didn't expect Wu Shuang to be really reserved, and even this kind of thing could go to the main owner for verification.
Wu Shuang touched her with her elbow, "Take it out quickly." ”
Shen Ruoran took out the things, Song Qingyuan looked at it carefully, it was the piece of jade pendant he lost, and he casually put it into his arms, didn't say anything, just looked at Shen Ruoran with a little disdain in his eyes.
When Song Qingyuan walked away, Shen Ruoran glared at Wu Shuang, "Song Gongzi just didn't want others to know about our relationship for the time being, so he took back the jade pendant." ”
"If you don't want to take back the token, if you don't even want to admit you in front of outsiders, what do you want him to do with this kind of man, do you keep it for the New Year?" Wu Shuang didn't believe half a word of what she said.
"Anyway, don't even think about it, it's me that Song Gongzi likes!" Shen Ruoran raised his tone and said viciously.
Wu Shuang's ears were numb from this shock, she took a step back and said: "What's the use of you yelling at me, it's your ability to catch up, what's the matter with you running to send me away, as if I can look down on you if I'm not in the house." ”
Shen Ruoran was angry, panting and raising his hand to knock it down.
Wu Shuang knew that this woman couldn't win the quarrel and was going to do it next, so she prepared in advance and stood outside her reach.
Shen Ruoran rounded his arms and stepped forward to fight, but he accidentally stepped on the chicken manure that he didn't have time to clean up, slipped forward, and fell to the ground on his back.
Wu Shuang was unscathed, and even smiled a little from a stomachache.
She touched the koi imprint between her collarbones and felt that she was a little European on her body.
This incident made Shen Ruoran refuse to talk to Wu Shuang for three days, Wu Shuang was happy to be clean, and when she was fine, she planted things in the game and basked in the sun.
Wu Shuang found that the concept of quantity in the game space was different from the reality, for example, the twenty seedlings rewarded each time, the fruit produced by one seedling was equivalent to the actual yield of one acre of land.
In addition to the rewards that can be randomly dropped each time you complete a mission, you can also specify the required rewards in the store, and the game will assign different tasks according to the level of these items.
In the early winter, the number of people in the village going to sea gradually decreased, and the three fathers and sons of the Wu family would only go to sea once every few days, and the seafood caught was not only not as much as before, but also much smaller.
As early as last month, Wu Guitian asked everyone to marinate the remaining sea fish that could not be sold with coarse salt, and then wear them on skewers to dry.
In winter, the sea is closed and you can't fish, so you can only live on these dry goods, on the one hand, you can eat yourself, and on the other hand, you can sell them to make money.
These poor people, the most difficult time of the year is this time, and they can only rely on their past savings to survive.
At this time, everyone lives cautiously, for fear of some accidents that urgently need money.
Zhang Luo bought a few new quilts at home, and Wu Shuang also sent some to Song Qingyuan.
Song Qingyuan was reading a book in the house, his room was facing the sun, and there was a lot of sunlight when the window was open.
Wu Shuang laid out the futon for him and asked, "Aren't you going home?" ”
Song Qingyuan closed the book, "Why should I go home if I do well in this business?" ”
Wu Shuang's subordinates paused, "Then tell me how much we have earned during this time?" ”
Song Qingyuan even took out an account book, and after a rough calculation, he handed Wu Shuang a money bag.
Wu Shuang took it and weighed it, not lightly.
"If you want to give me money in the future, just say it, if a few shrimp and crabs could be worth so much money, Anhai Village would have made a fortune a long time ago."
The pickles they made were not able to reach this amount at all, except for the freight and cost, and the two of them divided it again.
These given by Song Qingyuan are enough to build a house on land in Anhai Village.
Song Qingyuan touched his nose and sneered: "Just take it for you, where are so many words." ”
Wu Shuang glanced at him meaningfully, afraid that Song Qingyuan didn't know what price these pickles could sell for, and he didn't transport these things to the capital at all.
The most convenient way to get from Anhai Village to the capital is by sea, which will save a lot of time than land transportation, and the town's wharf has cargo ships sailing at regular intervals, and they will gather the pickles and let Bining carry the goods to the capital together.
Every time it was like this, Wu Shuang didn't care, until one time she went to the town and accidentally saw Bi Ning flashing through the crowd, and at that time, Bi Ning should have followed the cargo ship on the way to the capital.
Wu Shuang had never mentioned this matter in front of Song Qingyuan, since he was hiding it from everyone, it must be a hardship, so why should she tell it.
This time it was the same, Wu Shuang just exchanged a few words with Song Qingyuan, and then turned around and left.
