Chapter 37 37 Busy
The reason why she didn't write a recipe was because Shen Shuangshuang felt that the dishes she cooked were not very particular.

Moreover, as for the ratio of various seasonings, she also judged based on experience. If she was asked to write it down, she would not be able to write it.

Zhao Zhong listened to Shen Shuangshuang's statement and agreed with a smile.

Only then did the chef show off his cooking skills again.

The cooking show didn't last long. The chefs in Zuixianlou were all very skilled at cooking, and they learned Shen Shuangshuang's dishes in just one try.

Moreover, it tastes even better.

So, just over an hour later, Shen Shuangshuang left Zuixian Tower.

Well, I also got 110 taels of silver, plus more than 200 yuan of tofu money.

At this time, Shenshi was almost over, and I thought that Zuixianlou had ordered a hundred catties of tofu for me, and it needed to be delivered before four quarters.

Shen Shuangshuang drove the donkey cart to the carpentry, blacksmith shop and grain store.

I went to the carpenter's workshop to purchase the mold frame for fixing the tofu, as well as buckets and wooden basins.The tools at home are not enough.

I went to the blacksmith shop to buy a big iron pot.

The pot at home is too small and I can’t cook much soy milk at one time.

If you want to improve efficiency, you have to improve your tools.

In addition, she decided to build a shed in the yard when it was free.

From now on, I will make tofu exclusively in the shed to avoid taking up pots and pans in the kitchen and cluttering the kitchen.

Phew, it seems like something happened again...

After coming out of the grain store, Shen Shuangshuang went to the cloth store to buy some fabrics and cotton, and to the grocery store to buy shoe soles.

Now that I have made money, I can buy some more materials and ask my mother-in-law to make some more clothes and shoes for the family.

There is also cotton to sew quilts for my mother-in-law.

The kang will be ready to use in a few days, but laying the floor all the time is not a problem.

Haha, my mother-in-law still wants to do embroidery to make money.

Next, I'm afraid the sewing work at home will be enough for her to keep busy.

After shopping, Shen Shuangshuang drove the donkey cart home.

back home.

Seeing that Shen Shuangshuang had bought a lot of things, Mrs. Shen couldn't help but talk about it.

Shen Shuangshuang always had a smile on his face.

After putting down the fabric he bought, he walked to Mrs. Shen with a smile.

"Oh mother, don't worry. Your daughter-in-law will definitely make money faster than she spends it."

With that said, Shen Shuangshuang told Mr. Shen about how he made a lot of money today.

Mrs. Shen was shocked when she heard that Shen Shuangshuang went out and got more than 100 taels of silver.

Shen Shuangshuang was very satisfied with her mother-in-law's reaction, and happily took out the banknotes and money she had received.

"That's it, mother, look at it."

Shen came back to her senses and pushed Shen Shuangshuang's hand back.

"Put it away quickly." As he spoke, he glanced at the door.

"Hehe." Shen Shuangshuang smiled, put the banknotes and money back into the cloth bag, and then put them in his arms.

In fact, the cloth bag is stored in the space.

"So, mom, don't worry. We have enough money to treat your leg now."

"In addition, Zuixian Tower has also made a contract with your daughter-in-law. From now on, our tofu will be delivered directly to Zuixian Tower."

"It's five cents per catty. On the first day, we settled on one hundred catties. It turns out to be five hundred cents!"

“By making a living like this, let’s not just sit back and have nothing, we can also save a lot of money!”

Mr. Shen nodded repeatedly when he heard this, and his suspended mental arithmetic finally fell to the ground.

"Making a hundred pounds of tofu is not an easy job." Then he said to Shen Shuangshuang.

"Haha, making money, what's not hard work?" Shen Shuangshuang responded.

Then he told Mrs. Shen his plan to build a shed in the yard and start a stove.

"Build a bigger shed, then build a stove inside and put two large iron pots."

"By burning two large iron pots together, the tofu can be made faster. In addition, it is more convenient to make tofu in the yard."

Shen frowned.

After thinking for a while, he nodded. "You can make your own arrangements." He said.

Iron pots are expensive, and so does cooking the stove.

But since selling tofu is a way of making a living, money is money.

"Okay, mother!" Shen Shuangshuang agreed happily.

After saying a few more words to Mrs. Shen, I ran to soak the soybeans.

After soaking the soybeans, while it was still dark, Shen Shuangshuang ran to the backyard and transplanted some vegetable seedlings.

It was almost dark before Shen Shuangshuang went to Aunt Wang's house to pick up manure.

It's not finished until it's completely dark.

Seeing Shen Shuangshuang working so hard, Mrs. Shen felt pain in her heart.

What she can do is to make two more sets of clothes for her daughter-in-law and make the bedding for the house as soon as possible.

The next day, Shen Shuangshuang got up before dawn.

He got up quietly, went to the mill to light the oil lamp, and then started working with the help of Xiao Hui.

Shen was a light sleeper and woke up when she heard movement.

Feeling guilty that I couldn't help my daughter-in-law, and unable to sleep, I simply got up.

Lighted oil lamps and sewed clothes.

After Shen Shuangshuang ground a batch of beans, he took the filtered soy milk out of the mill and prepared to send it to the kitchen.

When I saw the light on in my mother-in-law's room, I knew she was awake.

Feeling warm in my heart, I raised the corner of my mouth and continued working.

Go into the kitchen, pour the soy milk into the big pot I bought yesterday, and then light a fire to boil the soy milk.

Wait until the water in the pot is almost boiling, then remove from the heat immediately.

Then brine it with salt and add some tofu to the pot.

Stop working when the tofu in the pot slowly turns from fluffy to lumpy.

After waiting for a while, scoop the tofu in the pot into the wooden frame to settle and compact it.

The tofu water in the tofu will flow out automatically.

Shen Shuangshuang left some of the tofu water down because it is a natural oil-removing water and is very suitable for washing dishes.

After finishing one pot, Shen Shuangshuang continued to prepare the next pot without resting.

The sky gradually became brighter in the busyness.

After cooking three pots of tofu, it was already bright.

Shen Shuangshuang could only stop and continue making tofu.

Use another shabby little pot at home to cook for your family.

Because I was busy, it was a simple meal.

Shen Shuangshuang took some noodles, added water, eggs, and a little more sugar, then baked two plates of egg pancakes.

This is a food that everyone in the family likes, and she likes it too.

The family ate together and put away the dishes and washed them.

Then he helped Shen from the room to sit on the eaves of the steps in the yard, and gave her the needlework and other things she needed, and then Shen Shuangshuang continued working.

It was already dawn, but she was not even halfway through her work, so she had to hurry up.

Shen Shuangshuang continued to work.

After a while, Aunt Wang and Wang Erya came.

Wang Erya also brought a little black dog.

"Sister Huilan, morning!"

"Before, you asked me to ask you who has puppies in the village. This morning I saw Aunt Zhang throwing puppies away and caught one for you." Aunt Wang said.

Dogs can give birth to several puppies in one litter, which farmers cannot raise.

Some people are kind-hearted and will ask the villagers to raise them or sell them for how much.

Some of the cruel ones were either thrown into a latrine and drowned, or thrown outside.

Abandoned puppies may still be alive if they can be picked up by someone, otherwise most of them will starve and freeze to death in the wild.
