Splendid Pastoral: The Strong and Hot Wife

Chapter 241 Tofu
Qiu Yongzheng heard Xu Xiaomi said that he would build a dojo for Wu Yue, wiped away his tears, nodded and said: "Okay! You can arrange this matter! Let's go back!"

The two leaned against each other and walked towards home.

At this time, Uncle Zhou Jingtian and the others had already built the roof of the mill, and they all came down to wash their hands by the river. They saw the two people walking slowly on the road along the ridge of the field, making a few unmarried apprentices envious. It's almost a halazi.

It was already noon when Xu Xiaomi and Qiu Yongzheng returned home.She found Qingfeng and asked him to ask the long-term workers, where it is easy to find a master of Taoism.

Qingfeng led the order and went back to the room next to the lime kiln.

Xu Xiaomi looked bored.Now, grandma and mother occupy the kitchen every day and don't let her in, saying that the woman who is going to get married needs to be raised so that the skin on her hands and face won't look good when she gets married.

Today, when I went to the riverside, Xu Xiaomi went secretly. When I came back, my grandma and mother nagged her for a long time!She said that she was not allowed to go out to have a hair dryer or bask in the sun, and her face would get tanned.

well!It is sometimes a burden to be cared for and loved.She wanted to do a lot of things at this time. Yesterday, grandpa made the tools for making tofu.However, grandma and the others just refused to do it.

Xu Xiaomi was so anxious that he circled around the tool, Qiu Yongzheng couldn't stand it anymore, so he went to plead with grandma and the others: "Grandma! Mom! Let her teach me how to do it! Look how greedy she is!"

Grandma and mother reluctantly agreed after seeing Qiu Yongzheng come to intercede, but they still worriedly said: "Don't let her do anything, just let her speak!"

Qiu Yongzheng was also reluctant to let her be troubled, so he asked her to write down the process of making tofu and the materials needed.Qiu Yongzheng just watched and followed suit.

Xu Xiaomi finally had something to do, so he quickly took out a pen and paper, and wrote down the process of making tofu.

Material!Here, she hasn't seen the brine yet!After thinking about it, just use the rice vinegar that I just made, add sugar and a little salt instead!

Anyway, mother and grandmother cook without vinegar, and they are not allowed to enter the kitchen. They only sent Xiaoxiang to the capital a few days ago.

The guests there are so talkative, they all think that some dishes are delicious with vinegar, but it's my mother and grandmother who don't allow vinegar in the dishes at home.

With vinegar, salt and sugar, the tofu made may not be so sophisticated, but it’s better than nothing!

Xu Xiaomi will be fine after writing these, alas!It was really difficult for her to have nothing to do.

She walked to the door, and just as she reached the door, a black shadow flashed in front of her eyes.She was about to take a closer look when several black shadows flashed past.

Before Xu Xiaomi could see clearly, she heard Qing Wu's familiar voice shout: "Children! Call Master!"

At this moment, a wah wah wah voice came from Xu Xiaomi's ear: "Master!"

"Hello master!"

"Hello master!"

"..."

Xu Xiaomi was stunned for a moment before realizing it. It turned out that what Qing Wu told her to see her in winter was because a baby was about to come out at that time?
She hurriedly stretched out her hand and said, "Come on! Qingwu! I haven't heard from you for a long time. So, you have a baby?"

Qing Wu stopped obediently on her arm, and the others stopped at the eaves, looking at them.

Xu Xiaomi hung up with great interest, and said, "Qingwu, introduce me to your partner!"

After hearing this, Qing Wu turned around and flew to the eaves, next to a starling who was bigger than the other three, and said, "Master, this is my wife! It's called Xiaomei, which is the name I gave it."

"Xiaomei! This is our master! If it weren't for the master back then, I would have become the delicacy of that eagle."

"Hello master!"

"Children! This is the benefactor of our family, the master of our family!"

Xu Xiaomi looked at Qing Wu's proud look and their happy family, and felt very warm in her heart.

He smiled and said to Qing Wu and his family: "Okay! I wish you and your family happy every day!"

After listening to Xu Xiaomi's words, Qing Wu said again: "Master! I am the father of three children now, and I will have to work hard in the future to feed them!"

Xu Xiaomi didn't speak after hearing this, but just called Brother Qiu.

After hearing this, Qing Wu flapped her wings twice and flew out into the fields with her wife and children.

Seeing this, Xu Xiaomi followed them and chased them out, asking, "Qingwu! What do you mean?"

Qing Wu brought his wife and children into the sparse, light green wheat field, and then replied: "Why did the master call the emperor? Did he order you to enter the palace again?"

Xu Xiaomi couldn't help but laugh, and said, "You! You're surprised, brother Qiu is at our house now, and he and I will get married next year, and he will be your master from now on."

"Oh! Is that so? Then why did you call him just now?"

"I asked him to get some food for your family. I think you must be hungry after flying so far!"

Xu Xiaomi patiently explained to Qing Wu.

Qing Wu looked at Xu Xiaomi and felt that the master was not lying to it, so she said, "Thank you! Master, Qing Wu is here to bless you on behalf of the whole family!"

Xu Xiaomi said: "Thank you, I'm fine now! Go back soon!"

Only then did Qing Wu fly back to the inner courtyard of Xu Xiaomi's house with his wife and children.

Qiu Yongzheng heard Xu Xiaomi's call, put two pieces of firewood into the stove, and went out, but he didn't see anyone.

He thought someone was watching to kidnap Xu Xiaomi, but who knew that when he went back and came out with a pistol, he saw Xu Xiaomi come back with a few big black birds flying in front of him.

Qiu Yongzheng took a closer look, isn't this the starling Qingwu whom I haven't seen for a long time?

"Hello, Mr. Qiu!"

Qing Wu cried out when she saw Qiu Yongzheng.

Then I heard several voices: "Hello, Mr. Qiu!"

Qiu Yongzheng was surprised to find that the four black birds all looked similar to Qingwu, so he looked at Qingwu and asked him to give an answer.

Qingwu saw Qiu Yongzheng's heartfelt feelings, and hurriedly introduced: "Master, this is my wife, and the three little ones are my children and Xiaomei's."

Qiu Yongzheng saw how similar they looked!So, he looked at Xu Xiaomi affectionately again.

The blurred eyes said in a trance: my dear!You see, even a bird in Qingwu knows that it is going to start a family and start a business. We should have gotten married long ago.

Seeing him like this, Xu Xiaomi said coquettishly on purpose: "Brother Qiu! Go and get some food for Qing Wu and them! It's such a long journey, they must be very hungry now."

When Qiu Yongzheng heard these words from his sister Mi, the bones in his body were shattered.He hurriedly turned around and went to the kitchen to find food for Qing Wu's family.

Xu Xiaomi asked Qingwu's family to follow her into the house.

At this time, grandma and mother had already prepared meals, so she asked Zhou Yin, who was making wine in the backyard, and his uncle by the river to have dinner.

Xu Xiaomi called Zhou Yin and the others, who were about to go to the river, uncle and the others had already reached the door of the house.

At this time, the tofu pot that Qiu Yongzheng had made began to boil. Looking at the white smoke blowing in his face and the foam bubbling all over the pot, Qiu Yongzheng saw that the information Xu Xiaomi had written for him was gone.

Xu Xiaomi looked at it and said, "Brother Qiu, let me do it!"

Qiu Yongzheng looked at Xu Xiaomi, and smiled awkwardly.

Xu Xiaomi couldn't help but said, "Go and eat!"

"Hey... I'll save the food for you!"

Qiu Yongzheng said to Xu Xiaomi with a smirk.

"Okay! You go! I'll just come here!"

Xu Xiaomi looked at him, thinking strangely in his heart: Oh!It's really embarrassing for this man, a general who leads the army and fights, he would rather just follow him like this, it seems that he should love him well and care about him!

She looked at Qiu Yongzheng, walked to the Moon Gate and turned a corner, and then she walked back to the temporary stove that Qiu Yongzheng built.

He took out the excess firewood from the stove first, and then went to the stove, and used a large shovel to remove the bean curd residue from the bottom of the pot.

Then I got an appropriate amount of sugar, added water, added an appropriate amount of salt, and added a lot of vinegar to the sugar and salt water, so that the large bowl of water was stirred evenly with chopsticks, and then poured on the side of the large pot of soybean milk .

Xu Xiaomi was afraid that some of the tofu would be tender and some were old before it was too late, so she poured the tofu onto the side of the pot with a bowl in one hand, and stirred vigorously in the pot with the rolling pin she had prepared in the other hand.

Until the whole pot of soy milk gradually turned into a family of bean curds.Xu Xiaomi just went to wash the gauze used to filter the tofu.

Spread it on the tofu box, take a large wooden basin, and put the tofu box and gauze in it.

Then, she scooped the bean curd into the tofu box with a big wooden ladle, and saw that clear water flowed out from all sides of the box, and finally only the bean curd was left in the box. Fold along the edge of the box.

Put a big wooden board on top of the box, put a big stone on top of the wooden board, press it on the tofu box, and the tofu will be made.Just wait, when most of the water in the tofu runs out, the tofu is ready.

In fact, Xu Xiaomi didn't expect that the tofu made with rice vinegar, sugar, salt and water could be made.

She herself is just holding the attitude of giving it a try.If not, think of other ways.

However, it is not unreasonable for her to use those things as tofu. She studies soil and mines.

She is very familiar with bittern ore, which contains hydrochloric acid, and she also ate gypsum tofu in her previous life.

Therefore, she knows that tofu is not only made by marinating.

As soon as the tofu here was made, Xu Xiaomi couldn't restrain the excitement in his heart.

Busily ran to the hall, hugged his mother's arm and shouted excitedly: "Mom, I have succeeded! Mother! I have succeeded!"

She rushed in in such a hurry, hugged her mother's arm and shouted, making everyone confused.

Only Qiu Yongzheng knew what was going on. Under everyone's eyes of inquiry, Qiu Yongzheng said: "Ah! It's the tofu newly researched by Mi Mei, and it's done."

Seeing her daughter, Zhou Yuqing has never acted like a baby in front of her for so many years.

So, he asked softly, "What is tofu?"
