Reborn under the White Mountain

Chapter 74 Bean Sprouts
The days passed day by day like this, without the voice of Mrs. Qin cursing people all day long, the new home was quiet, and it really made people uncomfortable for a while.But what makes Yuxian most uncomfortable is that there is no food to eat, not at all, every meal will have a little, not enough to eat.Yuxian thinks about this question every day. One day, she saw a bean beside the water tank. She didn't know when it fell there. It sucked the water and began to sprout.Yuxian patted her head hard after seeing it, it can produce bean sprouts!Oh, I'm such an idiot. In my previous life, my grandma would grow some bean sprouts in winter, and my grandpa would send them to many shops and snack bars, so that I could earn some living expenses during the winter break.Yuxian used to help grandma strain the bean sprouts, so she knew exactly how to do it.After thinking about it, it seems that one day I saw a few broken tanks in the warehouse and used them.

Yuxian ran to the warehouse in a hurry, and saw several tanks inside, all of which were broken.Yuxian picked one with a small hole at the bottom, and ran to the front yard to find her brothers. They had nothing to do today, they were all reading there. "Big Brother, Second Brother, come and do me a favor." Yu Xian shouted as she entered the room in a hurry.

"Little sister, what are you doing? You're running around. Sit down quickly." Erlang pulled Yuxian to sit down.

"Second brother, don't sit down now. I have something to do. Hurry up and get me a tank from the barn." Yuxian wants to do something, and she is so anxious that she can't wait to finish it right away. How can she just sit here? .

"Okay, second brother, we've been reading for a while, go help little sister, and take a break." It was Da Lang who spoke.

"Thank you, brother." Yuxian was so happy that she grabbed the hands of her two brothers and ran outside.

"Sister, slow down, what are you in such a hurry for?" Erlang asked as he walked.

"Second brother, I thought of solving the problem of our family having no food, that's why I'm so excited. Hurry up and take this tank to the kitchen, I want to clean it." The warehouse has arrived.

The two brothers are used to the younger sister's appearance, so they don't ask her what idea she thought of, anyway, just work, and there will be surprises at that time.The two of them carried the vat into the kitchen. This is a small vat, called the second vat by the locals, and it is usually used to pickle pickles or something.Yu Xian washed the tank with water over and over again, and Da Lang went out with the dirty water and poured it out.After swiping it three times, Yuxian looked at it and thought it was all right, she turned her head and said to Da Lang, "Brother, you still have to help me."

"Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

"You can help me make a shelf according to the size of the bottom of the tank, and I can put the tank on it. The space under the shelf should be able to put a pot in it, okay? Also, get some grass or millet stalks, make up Put a flat piece that is bigger than this hole, and put it in to prevent the beans from leaking down, but the water can go down." Yuxian thought for a while, and said her request.

"No problem, little girl. You just said beans. Does the dish you want to make have something to do with beans?" Da Lang asked after listening to beans.

"Well, I want to soak the soybeans and let them sprout. Let's eat bean sprouts." Yuxian explained her brother's doubts. "Bean sprouts are delicious, you think, beans are a good thing."

"Bean sprouts? I haven't heard of it, but since you said it, it should work. Okay, brother, go get what you said. What about me, what can I do for you?" Just wait and eat.

"Second brother, let's go scoop up some soybeans and pick out the beans," the two of them went to scoop up the beans with a bowl and a dustpan.Yuxian looked at the size of the tank, five catties of soybeans should be fine.So I scooped it six times with a bowl. This bowl is big, and it should hold about a catty in one bowl, and I have to pick out the bad beans, so I just did it six times.Back in the house, I found another round curtain, the kind sewn together with sorghum stalks, and a basin.Yuxian was young, so she put the dustpan on the wooden couch, put the basin on the ground, put some soybeans on the back of the curtain, and pressed down on the front, so that the beans would flow along the sorghum stalks on the curtain. The small ditch keeps rolling forward, and some of the two halves are bitten by insects. They are not so round, so they can’t roll down. It's in the dustpan.Just like this back and forth repeatedly, after a while, there are all bad beans left in the dustpan, and it is no problem to keep them for oiling.Those round and good beans were all in the pot. Yuxian picked up the pot, went into the suite, found a small quilt and spread it on the kang, then poured the beans on it, and picked it again.

"Little sister, this room is a bit cold, how nice it is to go to your room, the kang is still warm." Erlang tried the kang, but it was cold.

"Second brother, the beans shouldn't be too hot, otherwise they won't germinate and will rot." Yuxian explained.Erlang had no choice but to pick the beans again with his sister.The two picked out the beans, put the beans back into the basin, and went to the kitchen to boil some water.The water doesn't need to be boiled, just try to be a little hot. Yuxian scooped the water directly into the basin and soaked the beans. "Okay, just control the water tomorrow morning." Yuxian clapped her hands. "Second brother, in four or five days, we will have bean sprouts to eat."

Fang went out today, and when she came back, she saw a large pot with a lot of soybeans soaked in it, so she asked, "Who made these beans to soak in this?" She knew that children usually don't mess around. , It should be Yuxian who has something wrong. "Yuxian, you did it, right?"

Yuxian nodded, "Mom, I want to eat raw bean sprouts, so that we don't have any food to eat."

"Bean sprouts? I seem to have heard it before, but I haven't seen it. How did you know it?" Fang asked strangely.

"Mother, I read it in a book. I forgot which book it was. Today I saw a bean soaked in the kitchen and sprouting. It's okay. The bean sprouts sound delicious, and they can be stewed with many dishes, like Potatoes, radishes, kelp, and tofu are all fine. Tofu? Mom, why haven’t I seen any tofu sellers here?” Yuxian recalled that since she came here, she hadn’t seen any tofu buyers for several years. I didn't see the villagers making tofu either.

"Tofu, that's something only in the south. It seems that we in the north really don't know how to make it. What's wrong? You know how to make it?" Fang looked at the little man in front of her with a smile.

"Mom, I know how to do it, but look at my small body, can I do it?" Yuxian looked at herself in distress, why can't she grow up quickly, she really wants to grow up soon.

"You can't do it. What about your brother and your father? Didn't you just talk about those things before, and your brothers did it?" Fang nodded her daughter's little nose.

"That's right, but making tofu is a bit laborious and requires a lot of things. Let's try the bean sprouts first." Yuxian doesn't want to eat a big fat man in one bite, and she has to do everything a little bit.

"Well, our family gave some soybeans from your milk this year, and we can only keep them for oil. If you can figure out a way, you can save those beans from being wasted." At this time, there is really nothing else to do with soybeans except oil. way to use it. "Okay, let's start cooking. It's getting dark. Xiaosan and your father will be back soon after entering the mountain. Xiaosi, Xiaowu, come and help me light the fire." Fang called to the west wing room, Xiaosi He and Xiao Wu ran out of the house.

The mothers talked and laughed and cooked dinner. When it was getting dark, Dalang Erlang came back from the study in the front yard, and Yun Song also led Xiao San back from the mountain. Yun Song carried a roe deer on his shoulder.Xiaosan carried two rabbits, today's harvest is not bad.

"Roe deer, Dad, you have hunted back roe deer again, it's really good, we can eat roe deer meat these days." Yuxian glanced at the roe deer, "Father, they say silly roe deer, silly roe deer, this thing is really good!" Are you stupid?"

"No, if you see a roe deer in the mountains, just call out, roe deer, it will look back at you, and then shoot an arrow, and it will be solved. The easiest way is to shoot the roe deer." Xiaosan said beside him.

"I quickly peeled off the skin. This roe deer is not small, so we won't sell it anymore. We'll keep it at home to eat, so as not to run out of food." Yun Song hung the roe deer on a shelf in the yard, and Da Lang With a lantern on, Yun Song took a sharp knife and peeled off the skin of the roe deer neatly, and then took out all the internal organs. Erlang stepped forward and packed the internal organs in a bucket, and poured them into the big pit where the manure accumulated, and kept them for later fertilizer.

Yun Song cut off the meat of the roe deer piece by piece. This roe deer is considered big, and the remaining meat would be [-] catties. "Dalang, you send this piece of meat and a rabbit to your grandfather. Erlang, you take two pieces of meat and send them to the house of the eldest and second grandfathers. It is rare for them to eat it once." Yun Song ordered .

Dalang Erlang didn't say anything, just found a basket and put some clean paper on it. This kind of paper is specially used for wrapping things. The Fang family will live a life. The things sent by others or bought at home, the paper used for bread , she flattened it again, put it away, and now it's just in use.Da Lang and Er Lang wanted to leave with a basket alone, but Xiao Si and Xiao Wu insisted on following. In the end, each of them took one. The snow was completely white, and it was a frequented road, so they could walk without lanterns.

"Didn't you say you won't get involved with the old house? Why do you want to send it over there?" Xiaosan muttered.

"Little San, what are you talking about? That's your grandpa and grandma. No matter what happens, you can't forget the two old people. It's just a matter of ordering food. With your skills, don't you guys already do these things?" Fang scolded Xiao Sanliang sentence. "Remember, don't forget the original, we can't do ungrateful things, understand?" Fang cut up some roe deer meat, planning to have a stir-fried roe deer meat.

"Mother, I understand, I will remember what mother said in the future. Mother, what can I help you?" Xiaosan thought for a while and understood that his father and mother were honest and honest people, and it was helpless to separate them. Although the life of my own family is more difficult now, it is much stronger than before. People can't always hold grudges, can they?
