The tofu had already been pressed so there was no need to watch it. Jiang Wenjing and Qian Yu sat next to it and ate tofu pudding.

Zhao Hong went back to continue washing clothes, leaving He Yan alone sulking.

She is so pitiful. Are these people so heartless?

At noon, a piece of hot tofu was fed to the hut.

Knowing that the two of them wanted to thank Xie Yao for teaching yesterday, but Xie Yao couldn't come today, Jiang Wenjing suggested that the three of them try the hot food. Xie Yao would eat it cold anyway, so it would be the same whether he ate it or not.

Following his father's instructions, Xie Yao took a group of his younger brothers to the village to set up an alms bowl for people.

Su Chen specially made half a bowl of sauce and asked Shen Lu to send it to someone before they could eat it.

I just happened to tell them the method of stir-frying bean dregs yesterday. Just add more oil than when stir-frying vegetables, preferably lard, and stir-fry over low heat until it turns golden brown. The most important thing is to add mashed garlic and sesame oil after serving.

When Shen Lu brought it over, the two of them were cutting tofu. The board they made looked to weigh six or seven pounds, the same size as Shen Lu's because the wooden frame was the same, but thinner than theirs. Shen Lu's weighed more than ten pounds.

The two of them gave almost one pound to Shen Lu and the others, and kept half a pound for lunch. They divided the rest into small pieces and planned to put them in something to freeze outside so they could take them out and eat whenever they wanted.

Shen Lu came over and gave them the sauce, and taught them how to make tofu dregs. They both had small appetites, so the tofu dregs could last them a whole day.

There were tofu dregs left at noon, so the two of them cut the tofu in half, kept a small half for lunch, and put the rest in a bowl so that they could have one more meal.

Shen Lu and Xu Shiqing had pork skin jelly with corn tortillas in the morning. They were a little hungry just now, so they had peach pastry with malted milk.

Su Chen just tried to stop him and said that they would eat soon, but he failed to stop him...

The peach pastry is so fragrant, a bite of malted milk and a bite of peach pastry is a perfect match!

It was fragrant, crispy and a little sweet. Each person had two slices of peach cake and a bowl of malted milk. I burped and thought, "Well, I'm almost full."

However, they both still took a few bites of the hot tofu and dipped it in the sauce. It was indeed delicious, and Chef Su's sauce was the icing on the cake.

Su Chen bought all the remaining food by himself, so he didn't cook at noon.

In the afternoon, the two decided to go to the village chief's house to find Aunt Xiulan. When they were chatting yesterday, she said that there was still a little bit of sewing left, and it must have been done today. It would be bad to wait for Xie Yao to deliver it, so the two decided to get it themselves.

The two of them were holding a bag of egg cakes. It would be bad to go to the door empty-handed. The cotton was obtained by Xie Yao.

Shen Lu tried to give him money, but he refused to accept it. If he wanted money, he would not have done it for her.

Xu Shiqing also gave him the prepared bill, but he refused to take it. Her words implied that someone had already given it.

He won't admit this.

It was for sure that he had prepared it for the young educated youth, and he would be happy even if the young educated youth didn't say thank you.

But he would not take the initiative to prepare it for Xu Shiqing, no matter how good a friend of Shen Lu she was, so he told her directly. He believed that Xu Shiqing knew who it was!

There would be no one else except Su Chen, Xu Shiqing felt sad.

She knew that Su Chen had money. Su Chen told her later in his previous life, and also told her that he didn't dare to spend the money. Indeed, in his previous life, Su Chen lived the same life as everyone else. He suffered the same hardships and pains as all the male educated youth, and became extremely thin after the autumn harvest!

In her previous life, she didn’t live in a small house, nor did Shen Lu, and Yang Xin also lived in a large bunk bed.

So before Yang Xin bought the pot, Su Chen himself had never spent any money, and naturally he had never spent any money on her!

The money has not been touched since it was hidden in the countryside!

Then how did Xu Shiqing feel that she had been holding on to the grievances she had felt for more than ten years?
