Chapter 146

"Go slowly, ma'am."

Gao Yueyang sent Mrs. Qin out of the hospital with a smile.

After dinner last night, Li Guifang came to the Educated Youth Court to chat, and she mentioned to her that she would start making tofu today.

As a result, just after returning from the construction group, Li Guifang's mother-in-law knocked on the door to buy tofu.

Mrs. Qin was holding a small porcelain bowl of white and tender tofu, smiling like she saw her teeth but couldn't see her eyes.

"Okay, don't send it away, go back to the house quickly, the temperature has dropped again today, don't freeze it."

After finishing speaking, he walked away quickly with his little feet in a happy mood.

I have heard from my daughter-in-law that female educated youths can make tofu, but my family has been anxiously waiting, and now it is finally here.

"Hey, old Qin's, what are you holding in your hand?"

The person who spoke was an old lady with gray hair and a little hunchback. She was over 60 years old, her eyes were dim and her ears were deaf. When she saw someone passing by her door, she had to walk in to see who was coming.

The old lady Qin walked over with a smile, and shouted in the ear of the hunchbacked old lady: "Old aunt, what I hold in my hand is tofu, look, it's still steaming hot."

As he said that, he shook the bowl in his hand in front of her, making the old lady's mind confused.

Before anyone could react, Mrs. Qin announced loudly again: "This tofu is made by a high educated youth in our team. He has a good heart, thinking that we country people have nothing to eat all day long, so I figured it out gone."

"He is a high educated youth, five cents and two dollars, basically nothing to earn our money."

Mrs. Qin purposely made her voice louder so that people nearby who were not working at home could hear her.

I can't take an extra piece of tofu from a female educated youth for nothing, right?

The hunchbacked old lady rubbed her eyes, looked at the white and tender tofu, her drooping eyelids immediately bristled, and then slapped her thigh,
"Hey, tofu is good. My old lady's teeth have fallen out and there are only a few teeth left. It is always difficult to eat. This time I can be considered lucky."

"I'll also go and buy two yuan, and I'll add something to the family at night."

The old lady Qin was overjoyed: "Then you should hurry up. Those who just heard the news bought it. The educated youths still have to go to work, so they don't do it every day. If you go late, you might not be able to buy it. .”

When the hunchbacked old lady heard this, she quickly turned around with her little feet and walked into the courtyard: "I'll take the bowl right away, I will feel bad if I don't eat tonight."

At the end of last month, my family ate up the vegetables I stocked up before the winter. Recently, I ate whole grains every day, and it was hard for me to get angry.

The winter in northern Xinjiang is very long, accounting for half of the whole year.

After the autumn harvest, people in the country will start stockpiling vegetables for winter, which can be stored for a long time and are durable, mainly cabbage, radishes, and potatoes.

Now there is no family planning, and children are born when they are available, and the rules are not separated from each other. As a result, most families with a large population have no food to eat before spring plowing.

And it will take at least three more months for the vegetables from each family's private plots to arrive.

Here, Mrs. Qin was carrying a bowl of tofu and promoting it on the way home.

On the other side, Gao Yueyang, after sending Mrs. Qin away, took out the rope she made of bamboo pieces from the space to pull the curtains.

The bamboo chips are peeled from the bamboo in the space, and then taken to the space threshing ground to dry and finally made.

Although the technique is rusty and the workmanship is a bit rough, it is good enough to cover it up, as long as no one can easily peek through the transparent glass.

"bang bang bang..."

Just as Gao Yueyang hung up a small curtain, there was a knock on the courtyard door, and she quickly jumped off the stool and left the room.

As soon as the door opened, I saw two old ladies and a teenage girl, each holding bowls in their hands.

One of the old ladies had half a bowl of soybeans in the bowl.

Gao Yueyang understood.

I had thought before that, at the beginning, everyone would try something fresh, and when there was no food at home, most of them would be bought and tasted.

In the future, it will be good to buy it again every ten days and a half months.

"Gao Zhiqing, I heard that you made tofu. Let's come and taste it for two yuan." The first person to speak was the old lady who was holding half a bowl of soybeans.

Gao Yueyang smiled: "Then hurry up and come in and get the tofu with me."

After finishing speaking, the gate of the courtyard was not closed, and he directly led several people towards the tofu house.

I thought to myself, it seems that the piece of tofu I sent out has worked, and Li Guifang's mother-in-law must have publicized it when she went back.

Soon, the three of them left happily with tofu.

Immediately, more than a dozen people came to buy tofu one after another, at least two yuan, and the most at four yuan.

Gao Yueyang spent the whole morning hanging curtains and selling tofu.

Looking at the time, Wang Baolei was about to leave school at noon, so he packed a few pieces of tofu, locked the door and went back to the Educated Youth Court to cook.

For lunch, Gao Yueyang planned to make mapo tofu and eat it with rice.

Wang Qiuyue looked at the bowl in Wang Baolei's hand with a dazed expression.

Wang Baolei saw that she was dumbfounded and didn't reach out, so he urged: "Mr. Wang, what are you looking at, catch it quickly."

"Ah, oh, good." Wang Qiuyue finally recovered and took it quickly.

Immediately, a look of disbelief was on his face: "Bao Lei, your sister really made tofu, my god."

Smelling the faint fragrance of beans, Wang Qiuyue couldn't help swallowing, although she used to eat tofu at home every now and then, but it wasn't so white, soft, and tender.

Of course, what she didn't know was that what Gao Yueyang made was water tofu, while the ones made in the Central Plains of Dengxian County were somewhat rough old tofu, so there were naturally some differences.

Wang Baolei looked arrogant: "Of course, no matter what is difficult, as long as you meet my sister, it will become easy, hehe."

Wang Qiuyue nodded in agreement: "Baolei is right, take me to thank your sister." After speaking, she vacated the bowl and returned it to Wang Baolei.

Wang Baolei reached out to take it, said hello and went back.

Wang Qiuyue looked at the tofu in the bowl on the pot table, the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

Fortunately, I didn't make a big mistake, otherwise, this little life would be so easy and comfortable now, it's great.

People who bought tofu in the morning originally wanted to save it for dinner, but couldn't help but stew it at noon. After eating it, they were full of praise, saying it was delicious.

Can it not be beautiful, the soybeans produced in the space, and the beans soaked in the water of the space well, together with the tofu method passed down by Gao Yueyang's grandparents in the previous generation, may not taste good.

So, after starting to work in the afternoon, the members of Dahewan had something to talk about, so the news that Gao Yueyang made tofu immediately spread throughout the brigade.

The team leader only found out about it when he went to work after lunch, and he had been thinking about it all afternoon.

If you mix the small jar of sauce that Xiao Gao educated youth gave you with tofu, it will be very delicious.

After work in the evening, he couldn't wait to go home. Seeing that there was no tofu on the dinner table, he immediately asked Mrs. Song,

"Mom, didn't I ask you to buy a few pieces of tofu and try it? Why didn't you go?"

As soon as Mrs. Song heard this, she became angry and stared at her eyes: "Buy a shit, it's a waste of money."

The captain frowned: "Our family is not short of that few cents."
