The splendid life of a small peasant girl

Chapter 57 Tofu
Yao Yu looked at Yang Lan and Yang Gui who were standing aside, and asked, "Where are you two siblings? Do you want to stay in Hehua Town or go back?"

Yang Lan said, "I want to stay here with my brother." If Yao Yu sells the store, they will find another place.

"Then you will continue to live in the back yard." Yao Yu said, the Bafang Inn was targeting her, so after she left Hehua Town, she didn't worry that this group of people would trouble the two brothers.

Zhang Dehou sighed, and a good shop has become like this, Yao Yu said, "Don't blame yourself, we don't want to see something like this happen today, but things in this world are sometimes like this, impossible things Everything went as planned.”

Yao Yu held Xie Zhimo's hand and said, "Actually, I am very grateful for everything you have done for me."

"Sister-in-law intends to leave it like this?" Zhang De said kindly, he really couldn't swallow such a big breath.

Yao Yu smiled and said, "There's nothing I can forget about here, it's just for the time being."

"Okay, you all go back, Zhimo and I will go find the treasurer Qian." Everyone saw that staying here would not help, so they had to go back to their respective homes.

Yao Yu and Xie Zhimo found shopkeeper Qian, but shopkeeper Qian seemed to know that Yao Yu was coming to them, and avoided seeing them, so Yao Yu had to ask the person who led the way last time.

The man's words were flickering, and he finally said, "Hurry up and leave, no matter who you are looking for now, it is useless." Someone from above said hello, who would dare to rent Yao Yu's shop.

Yao Yu didn't expect Bafang Inn to do such a great job, pulled Xie Zhimo and said, "Let's go."

Xie Zhimo asked, "Why don't you look for someone else?"

"It's useless for us to find anyone now. To be clear, Feng Zhixian must have explained to this group of people in advance, who would dare to buy or rent my shop." Yao Yu said.

Xie Zhimo was a little anxious, and then said, "Don't worry, you will rely on me at home in the future, and don't cook early in the future, I will feel bad if you work hard." The most important thing is to worry that someone will hurt Yao Yu if someone finds fault.

Yao Yu smiled and said, "You think I'm so easy to defeat, let's go, go back to the shop and pack your things."

There are still a lot of ingredients left in the store, and Yao Yu intends to keep them for the two siblings, "These are enough for you to eat for a while." Yao Yu took out 20 taels of silver, "You take this money first, if you run out of money, go Shuangshui Village is looking for me." 20 taels of silver can be used for a long time, the main reason is that she dare not give too much to the two siblings for fear of being stolen.

Yang Lan shook her head and refused to take the money, "I can support my younger brother and me now, and if my aunt can take us in, we are already content."

No matter what Yao Yu said, Yang Lan was unwilling to accept the money, so Yao Yu had no choice but to take it, and repeatedly told him to go to Shuangshui Village to find them if something happened.

There are still two large jars of soybean paste made in the yard, Yao Yu asked Xie Zhimo to carry them into the bullock cart, "Then we will go back first."

Yang Lan and Yang Gui reluctantly bid farewell to Yao Yu and Xie Zhimo.

Yao Yu looked at the shop and worked here for half a year. He didn't know if he would come here again in the future. Yao Yu and Xie Zhimo went to Huang Yuhai's booth. Yao Yu handed Huang Yuhai ten taels of silver, "Brother Huang, thanks to you Take care, now we are leaving, see you later."

Huang Yuhai said nothing to accept the money, Xie Zhimo said, "Brother, just accept it, it's a wish from both of us."

"Yeah, you were injured because of my shop, and we didn't take care of you." Yao Yu felt a little apologetic, because too many things happened recently.

"It's really not a problem for a little thing." Fortunately, Huang Yuhai still accepted the money in the end.

Yao Yu left a small jar of soy sauce for Aunt Chen, and Aunt Chen didn't come out of the stall today, so Yao Yu asked Huang Yuhai to pass it on for her.

"Aren't you going to do it here in the future?" Huang Yuhai asked.

Yao Yu nodded, "I'm tired, I want to rest for a while."

"That's right, now that Brother Xie is back, big sister, you can enjoy yourself at home." Huang Yuhai said, "Just come and see me and Aunt Chen when you have time."

"En." Yao Yu nodded, and left with Xie Zhimo.

To be honest, Yao Yu still has some feelings for Hehua Town. Suddenly, it was like being banned from entering, and he could no longer come here to do business, which made Yao Yu quite uncomfortable, "Go to Manchuan Inn."

Xie Zhimo was also a little uncomfortable. He thought that as long as he made money, his family would be able to live a good life, but now he realizes that without power or money, they can only be the bottom of the world, like ants. Recognize people to crush.

The ox cart stopped at the entrance of the Manchuan Inn, and Yao Yu stepped forward, and the waiter hurried over to greet him, "Is your shopkeeper Nie there?"

"Yes, please come in, I'll go find the shopkeeper." The waiter said and went to find someone.

Yao Yu didn't expect Shopkeeper Nie to be willing to see her, so he was a little surprised. Xie Zhimo smiled and said in a low voice, "Everyone in Hehua Town knows that Manchuan Inn and Bafang Inn are comparable. Since there are people behind Bafang Inn, then Manchuan Of course there are people."

Unexpectedly, after this incident, Xie Zhimo looked at the problem from a much deeper angle than before, Yao Yu nodded, it seemed that it was indeed the case.

Shopkeeper Nie came over soon, and Yao Yu said, "I still have two jars of soy sauce here, do you know if Shopkeeper Nie still takes it?"

Shopkeeper Nie said, "Accept, why not?"

After hearing shopkeeper Nie's affirmative answer, Xie Zhimo hurried downstairs to move the sauce, and the waiter also went to weigh the sauce.

Yao Yu glanced at Shopkeeper Nie with some doubts. Many people in Hehua Town knew that Bafang Inn had troubled Yao's earlier, but Yao Yu didn't believe that Shopkeeper Nie didn't know about it.

Seeing Yao Yu's appearance, Shopkeeper Nie smiled and said, "Sister Yao wants to know why I still dare to accept your sauce under such circumstances?"

Yao Yu nodded. Sure enough, shopkeeper Nie knew about what happened in the morning. It has to be said that the Manchuan Inn also has a background.

"We also know who the person behind the Bafang Inn is Feng Zhixian." Shopkeeper Nie glanced at Yao Yu after speaking.

Shopkeeper Nie didn't surprise Yao Yu when he knew this. After all, if you want to get along well in a town, you should know all these basic relationships, but Yao Yu is a little curious. Isn't the most important thing in a lotus town is the county magistrate?Why did Manchuan Inn not seem to take this seriously.

"Moreover, we also know that Shopkeeper Han is the brother-in-law of Fengzhi County." Shopkeeper Nie said.

Yao Yu was a little surprised in his heart, that's why Feng Zhixian stood behind the Bafang Inn. It turned out that the relationship between them was like this.

"You don't have to worry about us, they don't dare to do anything to us." Shopkeeper Nie continued.

Yao Yu's eyes lit up, "Then can you crush the Bafang Inn?"

Shopkeeper Nie said with a smile, "It's hard to say that they are overwhelmed, but they can also steal their business." The Bafang Inn is extremely annoying. The cooks at the inn were like that, and this year's clams had won them a game.

It’s okay to grab the other party’s business, make the Bafang Inn lose business, and cause the inn to lose money. Yao Yu said with a smile, “I have a way to help your inn.”

Shopkeeper Nie heard the words and said, "But it's okay to say."

"I wonder if Manchuan Inn has a workshop dedicated to making tofu." Yao Yu asked.

Shopkeeper Nie nodded, "Of course, please follow me."

At this time, making tofu is actually a craft that is not known to the outside world. Yao Yu did not expect shopkeeper Nie to take her directly to the tofu workshop, but those who do big things don't care about small things, presumably Manchuan Inn is like this.

The tofu workshop is in the backyard of the Manchuan Inn, and a small room has been specially opened up. Yao Yu went over and asked directly, "Can you let him make tofu from the beginning to the end."

Shopkeeper Nie nodded. Although the tofu maker was a little dissatisfied, no matter how it was all his skills, how could he support his family if it was leaked? Come, put it in graphite and grind it into a slurry, then filter out the bean dregs, and put it in a pot to boil.

Shopkeeper Nie saw that Yao Yu was staring at him but didn't say anything, so he couldn't help but think, just now Yao Yu said that he wanted to provide a solution, but fortunately, shopkeeper Nie patiently accompanied Yao Yu to watch the man cook tofu.

To be honest, the reason why Yao Yu had to watch from beginning to end was because she really didn't know how to make tofu, but when she ate ancient tofu, she was sure that there was something wrong with the way to make tofu, so Yao Yu looked at it without blinking. When that person makes tofu, it depends on whether there will be any problems in the middle.

When he was about to reach the last step of making the marinade, Yao Yu immediately stopped, "Is there any plaster?"

Shopkeeper Nie quickly ordered someone to fetch the plaster, and Yao Yu handed the plaster to the tofu maker, "Try this instead of vinegar."

The man was even more dissatisfied. Shopkeeper Nie coughed and said in embarrassment, "Just try."

The man put the vinegar aside, picked up the gypsum, and after a while, white tofu brains formed, and squeezed out the water, and the tofu was ready.

Shopkeeper Nie had some doubts, "Is there any difference?"

Yao Yu said, "Try it."

The man cut two pieces of tofu, which is whiter than ordinary tofu. Shopkeeper Nie took the tofu, took a bite, and was shocked in place, "This, this..."

Yao Yu took a piece of it and tasted it. Sure enough, tofu should taste like this.

The tofu maker wondered, what's the problem? He cut a small piece of the tofu in the pot, and then took a small bite, showing an expression of disbelief, and then took another bite. Is this the tofu he made? ?Why is the taste so tender and smooth without any sour taste?

"How?" Yao Yu asked after seeing shopkeeper Nie eating up a piece of tofu.

Shopkeeper Nie said, "Okay, okay." Now he will not be able to control the Bafang Inn.

When paying, shopkeeper Nie gave Yao Yu an extra 50 taels of silver, "These money will be used as money for sister Yao to teach us how to make tofu."
