A time-travelling peasant girl becomes a wealthy woman

Chapter 29 Making Fermented Bean Curd

He Hui Niang was sitting on the bed doing embroidery when she felt someone move next to her. She turned her head to ask, but before she could express her concern, a small white cloth bag suddenly appeared next to Huang Mulin. She almost screamed, but fortunately she managed to hold it back.

"mother."

Huang Mulin rubbed his eyes and cried out.

"......Um."

He Hui Niang asked dryly, "Are you okay?"

"No." Huang Mulin sat up, "I just didn't get enough sleep."

Then she saw the cloth bag next to her.

Look at mother, look at the cloth bag, look at mother again, and look at the cloth bag again.

When He Hui Niang saw her daughter acting strangely, her suspicion suddenly disappeared.

"Talk to mom?"

"Mom, don't be afraid."

She patted the bag and said, "I dreamed about the masters again last night. I said I wanted to make fermented bean curd, but I was short of fermented bean curd flour, which we don't have here. The master promised to send me some and told me I would see it when I woke up."

Huang Mulin hesitated for a moment, but still did not tell her mother about the library space, fearing that her mother would be too frightened. She could still see the frightened expression on her mother's face just now.

Wait until your family members get used to it, and then find a time to be honest with each other.

He Hui Niang thought about it and understood.

"Why don't you just take a good rest today and let your father and brothers do the business. It's been so long now and it's time for them to get started."

Huang Mulin felt that what his mother said made sense, and his brothers also needed to grow up.

He Hui Niang got up and went to the kitchen, got breakfast and said that Mu Mu did not sleep well and needed to sleep for a while. She asked Huang Bo to bring Huang Xilin to help today, and reminded him not to forget to buy things when he came back.

The worried brothers went to visit Huang Mulin first and found that she really just didn't get enough sleep. After feeling relieved, they followed Huang Bo to the town. He Hui Niang tidied up the kitchen, told her to have a good rest, and then went to tidy up the fields.

She was trained badly in the space last night. Doing horse stance, getting beaten, etc. were all very exhausting. She was so mentally exhausted that she had to sleep for a while to recover.

She is only five years old!

Huang Mulin was so angry that his teeth were itching, but he didn't know how to show mercy!

After breakfast, she lay in bed groaning for half an hour before getting up.

Seeing that there was no one around and thinking that she had nothing important to do, she stood in the middle of the yard and practiced Tai Chi.

When He Hui Niang returned home, she saw a sweaty little girl twisting and turning, doing something unknown.

"Mumu, what are you doing?"

"Practice Tai Chi."

After doing a few more moves, Huang Mulin stopped.

"What is Tai Chi?"

"My master taught me this in my dream. It helps me keep fit and fight bad guys." Huang Mulin said crisply.

"Can I learn, Mom?"

"The whole family should learn this~ It can help you exercise and protect yourself~"

He Hui Niang was satisfied. She wiped the sweat off the little girl's face, then went to the kitchen to boil water and wiped the sweat off herself and her daughter's bodies to prevent them from catching a cold.

Huang Bo and his team returned in the evening. Today's business was normal and nothing happened.

In fact, Mr. Jia's steward was the first to receive the news of what happened at the dock, and he also knew that Tang Qian and Huang Bo's family had been in contact, and it seemed that they were probably on good terms.

The manager went to Songjia Wharf, drank a cup of tea with Song Jiaguang and chatted for a few words like a good brother. When he saw that Song Jiaguang understood, he stood up and said goodbye.

During dinner, Huang Mulin told his family about his plan to learn martial arts, and also explained the origin of fermented bean curd and koji rice flour that he had dreamt about that morning.

Except for He Hui Niang who knew the truth, Dad and his brothers digested it silently for a while and accepted it silently.

As for learning martial arts, the whole family agrees with it. It is good to be able to protect yourself at any time.

In addition, the purchase of land should be done quickly.

Making fermented bean curd, learning martial arts, buying land and building houses, there is really no end to the work.

It has to be completed one by one, so let’s teach my family how to make fermented bean curd first.

Cut the old tofu into small cubes of uniform size. Prepare a steamer, clean it and put it in a pot of boiling water to sterilize it for a quarter of an hour, drain it and put a layer of gauze on it, put the cut old tofu pieces on it, leaving some space between each piece, and then put it in a pot of boiling water and steam it for five minutes.

When steaming tofu, add some fermented bean curd flour to a bowl of cold water and stir evenly. After the tofu is steamed, take it out and let it cool, then boil it in the fermented bean curd flour.

Without a sealed container like in his previous life, Huang Mulin chose to put the tofu into a large jar that he had finally found at home, leaving some space between them, covered it with a lid, and poured clean water into the groove along the edge of the lid to form a sealed space.

Find a cool place in a corner of the kitchen and let it ferment for three or four days. Wait until the tofu is covered with white hair before proceeding to the next step.

Huang Mulin opened the wine that Huang Bo bought and smelled it. The alcohol content was not high enough, but this was already the strongest wine available in the town. If you needed better, you would have to go to the county town or the provincial capital, and even then it might not meet your requirements.

It’s too much trouble, so Huang Mulin plans to go to Taobao to shop in the evening.

In addition to making fermented bean curd, Huang Haolin also used the remaining tofu to make a dish, salted fish and tofu stew, which is salty and fragrant and goes well with rice. It has been added to the lunch box recipe.

It’s great to have a great cook at home who loves to study.

In the library space, she searched for Maotai first, but she calculated the cost of the wine and found it was too high and not worth it.

Later she remembered the briefcase rice wine that was very famous in Guangxi in her previous life. Although it had no alcohol content, it was particularly intoxicating.

Re-entering the keywords, she found a merchant with relatively high positive reviews and asked whether there was any alcohol content test data. She received a positive answer: between 58 and 63 degrees.

Very suitable, place an order to buy.

A 25-kilogram plastic bucket costs less than 300 yuan and can be used for a long time. It is good value for money.

However, if such a large bucket was taken out, He Hui Niang would probably be frightened again, and plastic was not available in that era.

She went and bought some antique wine jars for packaging, and took one jar out to experiment first.

Sure enough, the next day, Huang Bo and his wife were startled when they saw the jar of wine suddenly appear on the bed. Then they looked at their daughter's innocent eyes and felt helpless.

But they didn't say anything and went to the kitchen to get busy.

On the third night, Huang Haolin couldn't wait any longer, "Sister, can we move on to the next step of making fermented bean curd?"

Huang Mulin thought it was probably OK, "Let's open it and take a look after dinner."

Huang Haolin eats faster.

After eating and cleaning up, Huang Haolin excitedly moved the jar to the table and carefully opened the lid to take a look.

Silly.

"Sister..." Huang Haolin's mouth trembled: "It's bad! It's growing hair!"

Huang Mulin laughed so hard.

"You're still laughing." He Hui Niang glared at her daughter, "Hurry up and explain to your brother."

“That’s what fermented bean curd is.”

Huang Mulin asked Huang Bo to bring the wine jar, then went to get a clean bowl and a pair of chopsticks, and then poured the rice wine into the bowl.
