Chapter 139 Chapter 130 Nine Liu Ailing Makes Tofu and Gives Gifts
"Hyun what, wait a minute, what's going on?"

Uncle Ge looked at Miya seriously and said.

"Cough." Seeing this, Liu Ailing coughed lightly and then slowly said: "It's like this, just last night, I became Miya's mother, and we will be mother and daughter from now on, please be a witness together.

To celebrate the birth of my daughter, I will make the three meals a day for you all very comfortable. "

"So rash, are you just mother and daughter?"

Finally separating his brain from the face, Zhou Youcai spoke in surprise.

"Shut your mouth if you can't speak."

Shi Miao gave Zhou Youcai a fierce look, and then said with a smile, "It's a great joy for Aunt Liu to recognize her daughter, so let's have fun today."

"This is really a happy event. Wait for me, I will give Miya a small gift to congratulate her on finally having a mother."

Xu Yi put the bowl on the table, and quickly went out to the next door.

A few minutes later, he came over with a small bamboo tube, which was only one finger long, and inside were a few sprouted seedlings.

"This is the sunflower I planted in the past few days. It has survived successfully. I hope you can take good care of it in the future and grow like it in the future."

Looking at the bunch of green young seedlings in front of her, Miya felt warm in her heart, holding the seedlings that Xu Yi handed to her in her palm with eyes filled with treasure.

Although this thing is not expensive, it is already the most precious thing for Xu Yi, who regards the plants he grows as his lifeblood.

"Thank you, brother Xu Yi, I will definitely take good care of it and wait until the day it blooms."

"Ahem, I'm in a hurry, and I haven't prepared any presents. I'll prepare one for the little girl later. Congratulations!"

Xu Yi was the first to give the gift, and it would be inappropriate for others not to give it. Uncle Ge took the lead in coughing lightly, and then spoke slowly.

Fortunately, gift giving here does not need to be the same as in Shuilanxing, as long as the heart is done, it is enough, and it is not difficult for him.

"Okay, everyone, let's eat first."

Saying that, Shi Miao speeded up the speed of showing off the rice, and took Miya and Gu Tianjiao to see the caught beaver after eating.

You don't have to do other things, but you must bring back the beavers you catch.

They were lucky and caught three beavers, each of which was quite large, and they were all adult beavers.

"It seems that the harvest is good. When we go back, we will kill one and try it."

The three beavers were all tied up by Shi Miao and thrown into a bamboo basket, carried by Gu Tianjiao, and the three walked back together.

"Shi Miao, what are you going to give Miya as a gift, I haven't figured it out yet."

Taking advantage of Miya's inattention, Gu Tian said in a soft voice.

She had never thought of giving gifts.

"Just find something you think is precious and give it to her. There's nothing too particular about it here, just follow your heart."

Shi Miao smiled lightly.

It is actually very easy for her to give something to Miya to celebrate. It is a very good choice to knock a stone and find a piece of jade to make a hole for her as a gift.

"Well, I'll think about it when I get back."

Gu Tianjiao nodded slowly.

When the three of them returned, they saw Liu Ailing and Zhou Youcai helping to grind soybeans on the stone mill. During the grinding process, water was slowly added to grind the soybeans into white soybean milk.

After that, Liu Ailing brought a big cloth bag, which she specially cut out from a piece of fabric weaved in the past two days. About centimeters away, Zhou Youcai asked Zhou Youcai to help pour the ground bean paste into the cloth pocket, and let the cloth pocket filter all the broken bean dregs.

Afterwards, she poured the filtered raw soybean milk into the pot, heated it with high heat and boiled it until the foam on the surface of the soybean milk burst, and after removing the heat, she got cooked soybean milk.

Seeing Liu Ailing's procedure, Shi Miao smiled softly, leaving Miya and Gu Tianjiao at the side a little confused.

"Shi Miao, is Aunt Liu making soy milk for us?"

Gu Tianjiao smelled a faint bean fragrance in the air and couldn't help but smacked her mouth twice.

"No, Aunt Liu is making tofu for everyone. It seems that there are new foods to taste at noon today."

Shi Miao patiently answered Gu Tianjiao's question.

"Tofu? Is it the same as the soap and candles you made yesterday, and you can make tofu after cooling down?"

Thinking of Shi Miao's operations yesterday, it seemed to be somewhat similar to Liu Ailing's actions, and Miya suddenly realized the Tao as if I had enlightened.

"No, there are still two steps to follow. The next step for Aunt Liu is to mark the pulp. Generally, brine is used as a coagulant for the pulp. After scooping the boiled soybean milk out of the pot, let it cool down a bit. When making the pulp, use a small Stir the soy milk forward with a spoon, and slowly add salt and brine, until the soy milk has corn-sized tofu grains, and this step is considered complete.”

Shi Miao watched Liu Ailing pouring out soy milk, spoke slowly, and then continued:
"The last step is wrapping the pulp. Pour the tofu brain into a wooden grid covered with cotton cloth and wrap it well, and then press it with a heavy object to squeeze out the water. However, it should be noted that it should not be pressed too dry. If it is made into dried tofu, it can be done." Press until no water drips out."

"Shi Miao really knows a lot, let's go play for a while, I'll make the tofu first, and I'll make something delicious for everyone at noon today."

Liu Ailing listened to Shi Miao explaining all the procedures she was going to do next, with a deep smile in her eyes.

"Mom, I want to stay and help you."

Hearing Shi Miao's steps, Miya was also refreshed, not as boring as helping Shi Miao stir the soap yesterday, and she liked the stories this new mother told her very much.

"Okay, then come over and give me a hand."

Liu Ailing smiled fondly.

Gu Tianjiao put down the beaver and went out. She thought of giving Miya something.

Seeing this, Shi Miao also left space for the mother and daughter, first went out with a small hammer, walked around and knocked a lot of stones, but she was not very satisfied with the occasional jade pieces.

After running for more than an hour, a round piece of white jade the size of a pigeon egg was produced, and Shi Miao walked back satisfied.

There was no punching machine in this place, so Shi Miao found a colored thread and woven white jade into it to make a pendant and gave it to Miya.

Miya has always liked beautiful things, when Miao hung the white jade pendant around her neck, she couldn't help spinning around in excitement.

What Uncle Ge sent Miya was a bird carved out of wood. He plucked chicken feathers and fixed it. Except for the painted eyes, which looked a little fake, the rest of the bird looked vivid.

After receiving this gift from Uncle Ge, Miya couldn't look away completely.

　I'm emo, I still haven't called tonight, and now my phone and computer are almost out of battery, woo woo woo...

　　Good night everyone~
