Chapter 174 Hey, Dear?

  Man Bao was thinking about eating all kinds of soy products, but he almost forgot about it, so Chu Lang reminded her to think seriously.

  Since tofu is the same as meat, can she save a lot of money for buying meat in the future?

  As for what to do with the saved money, Man Bao thought: Leave it alone, there will always be a place to go.

  Thinking about it this way, wouldn’t your money box fill up quickly?

  Just thinking about it, Man Bao burst into laughter happily, and shook Chu Lang and said, “Four brother, you’re right, we will buy less meat and make more tofu in the future.”

  Thursday Lang: "...when did I say...I obviously don’t think tofu is the same as meat."

  But Man Bao ignored him at all, and went to discuss with Xiao Qian, "Sister-in-law, let's try to make tofu tomorrow."

  Qian also smiled and said: "Just do it. First try to see if it can be done. If it can be done, do it a little bit later, and send some past to the Bai family."

  Xiao Qian's response.

  It happens that the day after tomorrow is the winter solstice, and now under the big winter day, everyone has nothing to do, and some are time.

  The next day, Man Bao still went to school, while Xiao Qian’s soaked the beans as Man Bao said, and took them to the mill to grind soy milk.

There is only one mill in the village. There are two mills in it. They are both in a thatched pavilion not far from the Zhou family's ancestral hall. It is said to be a pavilion. In fact, it was a house a long time ago. Without money to repair, he demolished the wall and built a sheltered pavilion with wood and thatch.

  People usually grind flour and soy flour here.

  Of course, it is impossible for Xiaoqian to do such a job alone, so he called Zhou Dalang, and Chulang led a group of children to join in the fun.

  While joining in the fun, he said cold words, "Sister-in-law, what do you believe in what Manbao said? This is a bean, a bucket of eight cents, how much is a catty of meat? How does this bean compare to meat?"

   Zhou Dalang disliked him for talking too much, so he simply grabbed his strong man, "It's so idle, come and work with me."

  Thursday Lang wanted to run, Friday Lang and Saturday Lang jumped up and hugged him by the neck, yelling forbidden him to go.

  Finally, Lang was arrested on Thursday.

Because the winter solstice is approaching, a lot of people gather in the mill. The Chinese New Year will soon be after the winter solstice, so many people use the wheat at home to grind flour, or grind rice flour, plan to eat better, and also give it to children We make some snacks.

  Seeing that the Zhou Dalang brothers were grinding the soaked beans, they asked curiously, "What is this going to do?"

   "Make tofu."

   "What is tofu?"

  Zhou Dalang hasn’t answered yet, the village chief who smoked a dry cigarette said: "Tofu, white and tender, delicious."

   So everyone went to the village chief, "The village chief, you have eaten, what rare thing is that?"

The village chief laughed and said: "It's not a rare thing. We rarely eat here, but we have them outside. Don't mention them far away. There are some in the city. This thing is not expensive. It costs two yuan per cent, which is cheaper than eggs. , But it tastes good. The key is that there are few dishes that can be eaten in winter. Many people in Zhoucheng eat them."

  "Does the village chief know what to do?"

"That's other people's craftsmanship. How can I do it? I followed people to Zhoucheng to eat when I was young." At that time, they went there at the wrong time. It took a long time to discover tofu.

  You can buy two yuan for a penny a day, cut them into pieces and cook them, and you can eat a meal with multi-grain rice, which is cheap!

  The village chief looked at Zhou Dalang after a moment of aftertaste, and asked, "Does your family do this?"

Zhou Dalang was very honest and said with a smile: "Why don't my family know this? It was Man Bao who went to Bai Xiao Gongzi's house to eat. When we came back, we thought about it and made it to the family to add a dish to the children. greedy,"

  Someone smiled and said: "This is a good way. Your family will do it first. If you do it, you can teach us later."

  Zhou Dalang and Xiaoqian both said that there is no problem.

  Thursday Lang worked hard to push the stone mill, and said with a smile: "My sister also said, this tofu is as nutritious as meat, village chief, did you feel fattened after you ate tofu at that time?"

  The head of the village gave him a sideways glance, waved him and said, “I’m running on me, the fourth child, is your marriage settled?”

The villagers around    instantly refreshed, and immediately shouted: "Yes, on Thursday, I have seen the matchmaker go to your house three times in the past few days. Is it a deal? Which girl is it?"

   "Have you seen it, are you handsome?"

   "What's the use of Jun? It depends on whether you can do it. On Thursday, you can't mix with the kids anymore. The girls will see, who would be happy to marry you."

   "Yes, that is, let's not mention anything else. Tomorrow, I will go to the ground with a hoe, let the girl take a look, and keep it."

"Let's pull it down. It's a fool to be a **** a winter day. Don't listen to his bad ideas. My sister-in-law tells you that you have to go to the county town to pull a piece of cloth and put yourself upside down. A new look, with your face and figure, what a handsome girl can attract."

  The villagers laughed loudly. On Thursday Lang blushed, pushing the stone mill without saying a word.

   Zhou Dalang couldn't help but feel happy when he saw him, and then said to everyone: "Don't make fun of him, he is young and thin."

   "He has a thin face..."

Xiao Qian was listening with a smile. When he heard this, he was displeased. He cut off the other party's words loudly and said, "Why don't you be so shameless? Our fourth child is only eighteen. We didn't even hold a little girl's hand. , Can you be shameless when it comes to getting married? Everyone is like you, so sweet words don’t need money."

   "That's true. Before, I saw the fourth child and a group of children go down to touch the mud loach. They are all such grown-ups. How can they still be the king of children? Can this be married?"

   Little Qian said indifferently: "Well, it's because he is a little childish, my mother-in-law wants to find a better one to take care of him, and his wife will bring him, and then he will stand up."

The little Qian took the opportunity to point out the Zhou family’s request for choosing relatives. She smiled and said, "My mother-in-law has said it a long time ago. From now on, the fourth-born daughter-in-law will be the best. No, our family is not a girl. People, as long as they are capable and can control our fourth child."

Zhou Dalang also hurriedly took the opportunity to sell his younger brother, "The fourth child is just to get off the ground, but the work in the field is not bad, no worse than our brothers, and there is a wife who can take charge of him, and this family is set up. "

  Don't say anything, many people have moved their minds at this point.

  Some older women even looked directly at Chu Lang. Although they are all in the same village, there are really not many opportunities to carefully see people from the head to the foot.

  Don’t say, Thursday Lang looks really good.
