Chapter 9: To each according to his needs

The next day, Lin Banxia left the village with Lin Yi and Zhao Chengfu.

The village is on the road to the county seat, and there are twenty miles of land. Over the mountain, the distance was shortened by nearly one-third.

Walking on the road between the mountains and forests, Lin Banxia still felt a little unreal, as if he had been playing in the mountains and rivers in his previous life.

When he arrived outside the county seat, he saw the stretching city walls from a distance, the people who carried baskets or carried flat burdens into the city, and the soldiers with knives and guns, Lin Banxia's heart finally gave birth to the shock that he was in ancient times and could not turn back.

After all, she couldn't go back.

After following Zhao Chengfu into the city gate, he soon came to the side gate of the county office. Zhao Chengfu went in first, and after a while, he came out with Steward Sun and led them to a small courtyard.

Next, the beans are naturally weighed and ground and then soaked, and then ground until they are soft.

In the middle of this, Lin Yi asked for some tools and made a mold for pressing tofu, and Lin Banxia asked for cold water stone by name, that is, gypsum.

Xu is Lin Banxia's intentions, or talent, and the amount of gypsum is better to grasp this, when it is not dark, the tofu brain is ordered.

After serving a bowl and sending it out, I quickly poured the tofu brain on the grinding tool, wrapped it tightly in a white cloth, and put a heavy object to squeeze it.

Not long after, Zhao Chengfu and Steward Sun came over with happy faces.

"Second Brother Lin, this tofu brain is very much in line with the master's wishes." The butler smiled and handed over two strings of copper coins, "This is the master's reward." ”

Lin Yi's eyes widened.

Two hanging money!

He had never seen so many copper coins, and he had never thought about tofu, oh no, tofu brains are worth these copper plates!

"Don't hurry up, thank you for the reward." Zhao Chengfu reminded.

Lin Yi rubbed his hands, carefully took the copper coin, and couldn't help grinning.

The housekeeper pressed the tofu that had not yet taken shape, and looked at Lin Banxia with a smile.

"This is Miss Lin who has an adventure?"

Lin Banxia Fu said: "Yes." ”

The housekeeper nodded and said, "Generous and blessed." ”

Lin Banxia praised this and only smiled back.

The housekeeper didn't leave, just in this small courtyard, chatting with Lin Yi without a pair, and after a while, he asked Lin Banxia's master.

Lin Banxia had to excuse himself from the master's prohibition and non-avoidance, and asked three questions before answering.

However, it was also mentioned that the master likes to wear gray robes on weekdays and hold a whisk in his hand - tofu is said to have been invented by Taoist priests when they were refining pills, so it is not wrong.

Lin Banxia's master became real and real.

"Master also said that when you take frozen tofu in winter, it will be full of honeycombs, which is extremely delicious." Lin Banxia showed a yearning look.

She was hungry.

Gluttonous cabbage and pork stewed frozen tofu, frozen tofu in the hot pot stained with sesame sauce ingredients, also hungry for spicy tofu, home-style tofu, all the tofu that has been eaten are greedy.

There is also Songhua egg mixed with tofu - Songhua egg did not appear at this time.

The housekeeper nodded frequently when he heard this, and even Zhao Chengfu's face showed a look of yearning.

"It's a pity that I'm stupid, and I only learned a few skills from Master." Lin Banxia sighed softly, "I don't know when I will be able to see Master again." ”

She now somewhat believed that she had such a master.

If you believe it, you can deceive people into believing it, right?

The tofu was quickly served.

Lin Banxia leaned against the door frame and sat down with his eyes closed.

After a busy day, I relaxed, and I felt tired mentally and physically.

When I opened my eyes occasionally, I saw Father Lin rubbing the copper coin, and his eyes did not blink.

Lin Banxia couldn't help but smile.

Two thousand copper plates are also the beginning of good luck - the magistrate should send someone to learn how to make tofu tomorrow.

If the magistrate is not too stupid, he will reward a lot of money to buy tofu recipes, also in order not to lose his tongue in the future.

And meet yourself and your father to show affection.

If the magistrate is smart enough, he should know that he can't let the tofu recipe be held in his hand.

But those things weren't for her to think about.

On the second day, the magistrate really came, with a pleasant face and approachability, and cordially asked Lin Yi who else was in his family and the harvest in the field.

asked Lin Banxia's master again - Lin Banxia naturally used the same excuse as before.

Finally, he mentioned the tofu recipe: "These ten taels of silver are the official's gratitude to Miss Lin and the other teacher." Thank you Miss Lin for her righteous act of offering tofu recipes. ”

Lin Banxia immediately understood that this county magistrate was a smart person.

Ten taels of silver to buy a tofu recipe, you can't say it.

However, as a reward for dedication, it is still a reward for the county magistrate, and it cannot be regarded as a small ...... bar.

"I still have to bother Second Brother Lao Lin and Miss Lin for two more days, what Miss Lin needs, just tell the housekeeper."

Lin Yicai got two hanging copper plates and ten taels of silver, and he couldn't even say anything except nodding.

Zhao Zhixian smiled and chatted a few more words, and then left.

The housekeeper then sent someone to follow them to learn how to make tofu from scratch.

Lin Banxia knew everything, did not hide his selfishness, and even dedicated the practice of bean skin.

I also had time to go to the street last time, and I took a good walk around the county seat, bought a nitrate beef tendon, and prepared to replace my simple hand crossbow string.

When it was time to leave on the fourth day, the county magistrate personally saw them off, and sent two officials to drive them back to the village in a donkey cart loaded with two large baskets of things.

Lin Yi was like a dream, and after a while, he carefully touched the silver ingot in his arms.

The village head, Zhao Chengfu, chatted with the officials, and took the time to hint that Lin Banxia was accompanied by these two officials, and after that, the Lin family's grandmother and the Dafang family would no longer dare to bully them blatantly.

The donkey cart swayed to the entrance of the village, and I heard the sound of crying and scolding coming from the village.

Someone at the entrance of the village saw them and hurriedly greeted: "Second Brother Lin, you are back, go home and have a look." You're not at home these days, and your father and mother have tormented your daughter-in-law. ”

Lin Banxia and Lin Yi's faces changed greatly, and they hurriedly jumped off the donkey cart and ran home.

In the distance, I heard Old Man Lin's angry voice: "Where is my son? Why hasn't my good son been seen for a few days? Was it driven away by your daughter-in-law of the loser! ”

"My poor dick—why don't you have a good life—you don't see anyone alive, you don't see a corpse—"

When he came to the door, Lin Banxia was stunned.

The fences and walls of his yard all collapsed, the stove, pots and pans were smashed, Old Man Lin stomped his feet and scolded, and Mrs. Lin sat on the ground patting her thighs and howling.

Wang's hair was scratched and messy, and there were blood marks on his face.

The two younger siblings cowered behind Wang, their faces full of tears, and when they saw them come back, they cried out with a "wow".

The two children who Wang hugged were in tears: "The child is his father, you, you are back!" ”
