"I just happened to be delivering tofu to the town the day after tomorrow. I sold the tofu and brought some vegetables over to entertain them."

Yang Ruoqing said.

There is a rule in Changping Village that buying land is a great event.

The buyer has to prepare a table of food and wine to entertain the middleman and witnesses, and also has to pay a certain amount of agency fees to the middleman.

People who are polite and considerate will also give red envelopes to the intermediaries and witnesses as a way of thanking them.

Mrs. Sun nodded: "Okay, remember to bring some restaurants. No matter how good the food is, you still need wine to help you enjoy it."

"Okay, I've remembered it all. Let's soak the soybeans later. If we have time today, we'll make a batch first."

The mother and daughter had just come to an agreement, and over there, Luo Fengtang came out of Yang Huazhong's house.

"Third Aunt, Qing'er, I'm going home first."

He said hello this way.

Mrs. Sun turned around and said to Luo Fengtang: "Tangyazi, go home and tell your uncle. Come to my house for lunch the next day."

Say hello first, and wait until the day after to invite someone else. This is the etiquette of hospitality.

Luo Fengtang nodded: "Hey, I will tell my uncle."

His eyes immediately fell on Yang Ruoqing: "Qing'er, I'll go home first, and I'll come back the next morning."

"Well, done!"

…

In the room, Mrs. Sun looked at the soybeans soaked by Yang Ruoqing and was surprised.

"Qing'er, why did you soak so many soybeans this time?" asked Sun.

Usually I soak ten pounds of soybeans and make about fifty pounds of tofu and send them to restaurants in town.

"I'm afraid there are about twenty kilograms in this bucket, right?" asked Sun.

Yang Ruoqing nodded: "In addition to making tofu this time, I also want to make some tofu. There will be more varieties and more income!"

Mrs. Sun had a look of surprise on her face, "Okay, my mother will help you that night!"

Time soon came to night.

After Xiao An was washed and sent back to the house to sleep, Yang Ruoqing and Sun both came to the kitchen to prepare tofu.

Yang Huazhong also came.

The man said: "You girls have made tofu so many times, and I have eaten a lot of tofu with dregs, but I have never seen with my own eyes how this tofu is made!"

Sun said: "Your legs are recovering. It's late at night and the ground is very cold."

The man shook his head: "It's okay, I'm in a wheelchair!"

Yang Ruoqing said: "Mom, don't worry, it will be late at night, just bring some clothes to dad and cover your legs and you'll be fine."

"Besides, tonight we will grind twenty pounds of soybeans into pulp and make a plate of dried tofu first."

"The remaining soy milk will be used to make tofu tomorrow night!"

The family started to get busy.

After making tofu so many times, both Sun and Da'an have become proficient.

The two of them helped Yang Ruoqing grind the beans and cook the soy milk, doing so calmly and neatly.

Yang Huazhong next to him also looked at it with surprise.

When the soy milk in the two large pots started to boil, Daan turned around and left the kitchen and went outside.

Yang Huazhong asked: "It's dark outside, what is he doing out there?"

Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled: "Look out!"

Watch out?

The man couldn't laugh or cry.

Then he remembered what Liu said last time about learning to make tofu, and the man felt relieved.

"This guy is really cautious, for fear that his skills will be leaked," he said.

Yang Ruoqing nodded, isn't it? This younger brother is so clever!

Sitting at the door of the kitchen, Mrs. Sun said: "When we build a new house in the future, we will build a room specifically for making tofu. This small kitchen is too small and not very tight."

"Well, if you move the frame of the tofu door, you won't be able to turn around." Yang Huazhong also said.

"This time I bought all the land with my silver, and I have only two taels of silver left on hand." Mrs. Sun continued.

"Buying rice, grains, vegetables, etc. can last for two months. But building a house is a big difference!" She sighed softly.

Yang Huazhong also feels the same way, "But farmland is the foundation of our farmers. It is always good to buy more."

Over there, Yang Ruoqing, who was busy ordering gravy, pursed her lips and smiled when she heard this.

"Mom, dad, don't worry. There will be fields and new houses. Our lives will get better and better!"

"Well, as long as people are not stupid in their brains and are diligent in their hands and feet, everything will be possible!" Yang Huazhong also nodded heavily.

After finishing the ordering, Daan came back.

Yang Ruoqing and Sun worked together to scoop the tofu brains into the tofu mold nearby.

Mrs. Sun sighed: "Tang Yazi's hands are really skillful. With this mold, it really saves a lot of trouble!"

Yang Huazhong stroked the wheelchair he was sitting on and sighed: "He also made this wheelchair. That kid is really good. Even if he doesn't hunt, he can make a living with his carpentry skills!"

The couple finished scooping the tofu noodle while the couple praised Luo Fengtang.

Fold the gauze in half and press a door panel on top to squeeze out the moisture in the tofu.

The next step is to wait.

Yang Ruoqing scooped out several bowls of tofu puffs in advance, put caramel on them, and served them to her parents and younger brother respectively.

"I'm only half busy. I'll be busy again later. Let's have a bowl of tofu to refresh me!" she said.

"Sister, why don't you drink it yourself?" Da'an asked.

"I'm going to lose weight!" Yang Ruoqing said.

Sun gave Yang Ruoqing an angry look: "You said something stupid again!"

Daan said with a serious face: "Sister, you are much thinner now than before, there is no need to lose weight. The person who really needs to lose weight is my sister-in-law, she is ridiculously fat!"

"Da'an, what are you talking about? My sister-in-law is your elder!" Mrs. Sun scolded Da'an in a low voice, then turned to look at Yang Huazhong.

Yang Huamei is the darling of the old Yang family, and all five brothers dote on her.

Fortunately, Yang Huazhong was there drinking tofu nao from a bowl and seemed not to hear.

Daan secretly stuck out his tongue, picked up the bowl and drank the tofu nao quickly.

While waiting for the tofu to squeeze out the water, Yang Ruoqing was not idle either.

She took two wooden basins and put soy sauce, salt, tea leaves, and some cooking seasonings that were limited to the family.

Finally, pour boiling hot water into it and set it aside.

"Qing'er, what is this water used for?" asked Sun.

"Brine is used to make brine sauce." Yang Ruoqing said.

She turned around and brought dried chili peppers and caramel.

Cut the dried chilies into shreds and put them into one of the wooden basins.

The caramel was put into another wooden basin.

"We will soak the dried tofu in this brine later. By the morning after tomorrow, it will be almost completely flavorful."

Yang Ruoqing was cooking the brine while explaining to the family members next to her.

Mrs. Sun nodded: "My Qing'er has a good idea. Hey, I guess the tofu over there is almost done?"

Yang Ruoqing walked over and touched it a few times, then said: "If we are making tofu, we can cut it into pieces now. However, what we want is dried tofu, and we have to squeeze out the water!"

As she spoke, she picked up the stone that had been prepared nearby and added another piece to the pressing board.

After a while, she added another piece.

Tofu itself is fragile, and it is easy for them to break when added once.
