The story of a farmer's fierce wife

Chapter 18 Tofu Delicious Tofu

Looking at the sky, and then at the little bean sprouts who had been taking a nap on the bed for a long time, Ren Xiao felt a warm current in his heart.Maybe her better days are coming.Just wondering if anyone here sells tofu.

Aunt Feng came over again in the afternoon, looked at Ren Xiao who had finished her work, and sighed, "I said, sister, what are you doing? Why are you still pressing down with these things?"

Ren Xiao took a sip of soy milk and said with a smile, "This is tofu, doesn't sister-in-law know?"

Aunt Feng frowned, and looked at her puzzled: "What is tofu? I've lived here for so many years, and I've never heard of it."

"Pfft..." Ren Xiao spewed out soy milk just like that, looked at Aunt Feng in surprise, thinking, is there any tofu here?Impossible, in Chinese history, it is said that this kind of tofu was available in the Han Dynasty, but at that time no one would eat it if it tasted bad, and it finally flourished in the Song Dynasty. Is it true that no one here can make it?

Did she discover something extraordinary?There was a weird smile on the corner of Ren Xiao's mouth, which seemed weird to Aunt Feng, but at this moment, the scene of counting money to the point of cramp appeared in Ren Xiao's mind, and suddenly he was photographed, and the scene disappeared, just like It's as if a basin of cold water has been poured down, it's so refreshing!

She first poured Aunt Feng a cup of soy milk, and motioned her to drink a few sips. Aunt Feng looked at her strangely, then looked at the gaudy thing, struggling in her heart, and finally pinched her nose and slammed it into her mouth. I took a sip.

"Hey, sister-in-law, how are you doing?"

Aunt Feng patted the table and said, "Sister, how did you make this? It's delicious, what do you want to use it for?"

Ren Xiao smiled wickedly: "This is a secret!" She had to figure out a good way to sell the tofu at the market in the town, or sell it directly to a certain restaurant.Otherwise, she will turn it into the legendary stinky tofu.

When Little Bean Sprout got up, she saw Ren Xiao holding a bowl of white things in front of him, looking at her in confusion, her big eyes shining like stars, "Mother~, what is this?"

Ren Xiao raised his eyebrows, "Drink something good, you will grow very strong after drinking it, just like your dog brother."

"I don't want to be as strong as brother Gouzi." Little Bean Sprout pouted, "I want to be like daddy, as strong and powerful as daddy, so that I can protect mother and help me Mother teaches the bad guys a lesson."

"Okay, I'm promising, mother is waiting for this day. Come on, you'd better drink this soy milk first!" Fortunately, she didn't finish grinding all these soy beans at once, otherwise she would have no materials by then. After getting some money, it's easy to buy some soybeans and make it.

Little Bean Sprout drank it in a few sips, licked his lips, and said with a smile: "Mother, shall we drink it tomorrow? This is so good that even my cousins ​​have never drank it!"

When he was in the old house, he always ate the least and the worst food, but because of Mrs. Ren's teaching, he didn't dare to say anything and could only hold back. Now he is not as restrained as before.Even her courage has grown, and she is more cheerful than before. Seeing all this, Ren Xiao felt really relieved.

At night, the tofu was almost formed. Before it was formed, Ren Xiao made two bowls of tofu brains and put in the little white sugar that was left at home. The little bean sprouts squinted their eyes into a slit when they ate it. Qi said: "Mother, this is delicious, can we drink this again tomorrow?"

Ren Xiao raised her eyebrows slightly, "That depends on your performance."

Little Bean Sprout grinned, "I will behave well, and I will definitely not disappoint my mother." Anyway, he already knows how to recite the poems taught by his mother, and he will be able to recite them tomorrow when his mother checks them.

After the mother and son had dinner, before it was completely dark outside, Ren Xiao took a few banana leaves and wrapped a few pieces of cut tofu in a bamboo basket, and went to Aunt Feng's house with the bean sprouts, and then I went to the village head and Li Zheng's house again, and naturally told them how to make this tofu taste better.

It was already dark when they came back, mother and son were walking hand in hand on the small road, Ren Xiao was humming, and Xiao Douya would imitate her humming from time to time. She went to sleep, and tomorrow she will be selling tofu in the village.

The next morning, when the sky turned white, Ren Xiao woke up. First, he cut up all the tofu and put them in two buckets filled with mountain spring water. Then he brought some washed banana leaves and went out with the bucket the door.

Although it is early autumn, some things can still be planted at this time, so many people still get up earlier.If you make breakfast, it's good to eat something new.Ren Xiao also thought about it, if this tofu is sold in the village, it won't be very expensive. At most, it costs three yuan for one yuan and five yuan for two yuan.

"Tofu, delicious tofu..." Ren Xiao shouted at the top of his voice, with a hint of embarrassment on his face, is she depraved.

The people who got up saw that Ren Xiao was selling things, and couldn't help asking: "Brother Jian and daughter-in-law, what are you selling?"

Ren Xiao said with a smile: "Tofu, this is something I just made. Sister-in-law, would you like to buy some for the elderly and children at home to try? This is very cheap, one yuan for three Wen, two yuan for five Wen, the most popular food for the elderly and children It fits."

The man raised his eyebrows, as if he didn't quite believe what she said, and was about to continue asking, when he heard a woman coming from the next door and asking: "Brother Jane, daughter-in-law, is this really delicious?"

Ren Xiao nodded with a smile, "That's natural. This food has high nutritional value and is cheaper than meat, but it also nourishes the body. Adults and children can eat it to strengthen their bodies, and the elderly can prolong their lives after eating it. Well." Forgive her for her exaggeration, otherwise I really can't think of any valuable slogans.After all, tofu not only contains protein, but also provides a variety of vitamins and minerals to the body, which is indeed very valuable.

The woman's heart was also shaken when she heard her say this. Indeed, the thirty-five cents is not a lot of money. In addition to this time period, there is no fresh food to eat, so I just use this tofu for cooking.Gritting his teeth, he bought two pieces of tofu. Ren Xiao also smiled and gave a way to make tofu. The people next to him saw it and naturally joined the ranks of buying.

Walking down a circle, except for not going to sell near the old house, she went around the rest of the village, looking at the tofu in the two buckets, there was still half of the bucket left, Ren Xiao shook her head and smiled wryly, yes, let’s go home and make it Fermented bean curd.
