Beautiful Peasant Girl: The Young Marquis's Beloved

However, Xing'er's old house only has more than half an acre of land. Even if all of it is converted to feed pigs, plus the workers' living quarters and supporting facilities, they can only raise about fifty pigs.

The bean curd residue produced at home could definitely not be consumed completely. Liu Xu thought about it and finally decided to use it on his own farm.

Anyway, her family has a farm in Yuyang Town, so she might as well build a pig farm there.

"Uncle San, we won't sell the bean curd dregs anymore. Let the villagers go around the village to sell tofu. I plan to build a pig farm in the farm I bought earlier, and use all the bean curd dregs to raise pigs."

"What? Raise so many and sell them?" Liu Changshun was a little hesitant.

"Yes, but I'll keep it a secret for now!" Liu Xu said playfully.

Liu Changshun and his two sons were at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Uncle San, have someone get ten frying pans specifically for making yuba. This will make the skin faster than using a large iron pan." Liu Xu suggested. She saw this by chance when she was traveling.

Liu Changshun naturally had no objection.

After finishing the story, Liu Xu went back. The weather was good today, and the dried tofu, bean skin and bean curd sticks were almost ready, so she took some home.

When they got home, the servants had already set up everything. Liu Xu went to the kitchen first and divided the soy products she brought back into three portions. She asked Granny Fang and the others to roast one portion, and to stir-fry the other two portions and mix them cold.

After making all the arrangements, she went to the main hall. However, her father and his family were not in the main hall, but there were a few unexpected people.

"Old... Old Madam, Sister Xu, we are here today to apologize for the gossip between Wu and Gou Wa a few days ago, and to thank Master Xu and Miss Xu for not pursuing them. Because Gou Wa was sick, we came a little late. I hope that Old Madam and Sister Xu will forgive us."

Wang Lao Er said in a simple and honest manner, and then turned to his wife and children and said, "Why don't you apologize to Sister Xu quickly? If you do this again in the future, I will send you back to Linhe Village."

"Sister Xu, I'm sorry. I won't gossip about you anymore. Please forgive us."

"Aunt, I'm sorry, I won't dare to do it again!"

The mother and son kowtowed as they spoke, and everyone in the main room just frowned.

Liu Xu saw this scene when she entered the house, and frowned, "Uncle Wang Er, what are you doing? If someone knows, they would think you are here to apologize, but if someone doesn't, they would think our family has done something to you."

Wang Er was stunned when he heard this, and looked at his wife and children, whose heads were bruised. This...

"What are you doing? I... stop right now. I'm sorry, old lady, Sister Xu, that's not what I meant!" Wang Er said anxiously.

"Okay, okay, we accept your apology. Just take these things back!" The old lady waved her hands helplessly.

"sister in law?"

"Take them back and discipline them well in the future, especially Gou Wa, who is not a child anymore." Xu Ruolan advised in a gentle tone.

"Thank you, old madam, and thank you, sister-in-law. We'll leave these things for you to eat as a side dish, and then we'll go back first. Thank you!" He bowed, took his wife and children, and walked away in a hurry, as if someone was chasing them.

Liu Xu took a look and saw thirty or forty eggs in the basket, as well as a piece of pork weighing about two pounds, which was considered a relatively heavy gift.

"Aunt Lin, please put it away. My two cousins ​​are injured anyway. We should accept this gift."

"Yes, miss!"

After everyone else left, a few people in the study came out.

It was not yet the hour of You, and it was a bit early for dinner, so Liu Xu and Han Duoduo went to eat grilled skewers, and Chang Yifei followed them.

As the fragrance wafted from the yard, everyone in the house couldn't help but walk outside.

Fortunately, the weather is good today and not too cold, so it's okay to sit outside.

However, worried that the old lady would get cold, Xu Ruolan asked someone to light a charcoal brazier.

Xiao Yan and Yan Yi had never seen this before and found it very novel. Seeing Liu Xu and the others roasting it happily, they also followed suit.

"Little sister, what is this? It looks a bit like tofu, but tofu isn't as tough as this." Chang Yifei pointed at the tofu that Liu Xu was roasting.

"Well, this is called dried tofu, which is made of tofu. But this is firmer and more durable than tofu, so it can be transported over long distances. If the weather is cold, you can store it in a can for a month, and in the summer you can even keep it for two days."

Liu Xu explained as she flipped the brush over.

Chang Yifei's eyes lit up, and he looked at the people next to him and asked, "What about these two?"

"The thinner one is bean curd skin, which is similar to dried tofu. The other one is called yuba, and both are soy products. But yuba has a good thing, it can dry out the moisture and can be stored for several months. When you need to use it, just take it out and soak it in water. How about it, are you interested?" Liu Xu asked with a raised eyebrow.

"How much is the price?" Chang Yifei asked.

"Dried tofu and bean curd skin are three times more expensive than tofu. Since bean curd skin must be dried and dehydrated, its price is five times that of tofu."

"Can it really last that long as you say?" Chang Yifei confirmed again.

Liu Xu rolled her eyes at him, "Is it good for me to lie to you?"

"Hey, little sister, how much can you make in a month?" Chang Yifei took out his folding fan and carefully fanned the smoke away from Liu Xu so as not to disturb his God of Wealth.

Liu Xu was so annoyed by his flattery that she said speechlessly, "It's hard to say. Third Uncle is going to build a workshop. We can't start mass production until the workshop is built. But when Third Uncle has finished the product, he will notify Uncle Fu."

"Okay! Let me try it first to see if it tastes good!" As he said that, he took a string from Liu Xu's hand and started to take a bite.

"By the way, Third Brother, the villagers of Liujia Village will start to sell tofu to the public. I wonder if the tofu business in the store will be affected."

"Hmm, delicious! This tastes similar to tofu, but has a stronger texture." Chang Yifei finished the tofu in his hand in a few bites, and then said:

"It won't have much of an impact. People who eat at restaurants don't mind spending a few bucks. What matters is the taste. I actually thought you would have sold it last year."

"Last year was too busy, with so many things to do. It's not too late this year."

"That's true!"

Seeing that everyone in the room had left, the two stopped talking and chatted about other things.

There is no peace where Chang Yifei and Han Duoduo are.

Both of them are very outgoing people. Chang Yifei would pretend to be sociable in front of people he is not familiar with, but in the Liu family... with Liu Xu around, his true colors would have been revealed long ago.

So, because he snatched the roasted beef that Han Duoduo had prepared, he was chased all over the yard by Han Duoduo.

"Lady Duoduo, can you please stop chasing me? At worst I can roast you a knife to compensate you." Both of them were martial artists and had good physical strength, but since they didn't use their Qinggong skills at home, they just ran.

"Do you think I'm stupid? You just burned the ones you roasted. Otherwise, you could have snatched mine!"

"I just wasn't paying attention. I promise, I'll grill it well. Please let me go, okay?"

"No!"

The elders did not stop them, but just sat there and watched the fun. The servants at the table had already brought the soup pot and were serving the dishes.

The rich aroma of cured pork ribs floats in every corner of the yard along with the heat, making people drool.

Mu Lingxuan and Liu Donglai both knew how to grill, so they took Xiao Yan and Yan Yi to grill for a while.

After all the dishes were served, Liu Xu invited everyone to the table.

There were so many people that they put two square tables together to accommodate everyone. The two of them were probably tired from running, so they sat on either side of the table.

"I'll settle the score with you later!" Han Duoduo glared at Chang Yifei and snorted.

Chang Yifei muttered quietly, "It's just a few skewers of beef, why bother?"

The cured pork ribs soup pot has a very special taste, which is different from the mushroom soup and hot pot. The soup is milky white, with the salty fragrance of the cured pork ribs and the fresh fragrance of other ingredients, which is no worse than those two.
