Yi Chen happened to know this and helped her to remedy the situation: "Thank you for the slip, Master Xie, and make a group of cows happy."

Jiang Yan: …

Seeing her mother looking at her, Yichen simply showed off a few lines: "In spring, I still like Lu You's poem: Red plum blossoms fall, slender green grass grows. As for the last two lines, they are very down-to-earth, just like tonight and tomorrow."

After Yichen finished speaking, she winked at her mother mischievously and went to the bathroom, ready to practice her supernatural powers for a while before returning to her room to sleep.

Jiang Yan saw her daughter's diligence, so she couldn't fall behind.

She first used her special powers to gently comb through her body, and some of the hidden dangers left by her original body were slowly eliminated bit by bit.

From now on, the use of supernatural powers will become easier.

When she opened her eyes again, the alarm clock had just gone off. She hadn't slept all night, but her bright eyes showed no sign of fatigue at all.

Knowing that the three eggs would come to help this morning, Jiang Yan woke up her daughter. They couldn't let the three eggs discover their secret.

When the mother and daughter returned to the shack and lit the wormwood, the shack was immediately brightly lit.

Seeing that the beans were soaked just right, Jiang Yan began to clean the grinding wheel.

Yichen also found a job for herself, which was to occasionally add a few dead branches to the kitchen.

When the sound of the millstone pierced the darkness, Goudan lit a torch and ran over with his two younger brothers.

"Aunt Jiang, let us help you." Niu Dan looked at the plump soaked beans and felt a little hungry.

"Aunt Jiang, let me do it."

"Okay," Jiang Yan agreed, making room for Goudan. She sat beside him and used a wooden spoon to scoop up beans and put them into the hole on the millstone.

As the stone mill turns, the yellow beans are ground into milky white soy milk, which slowly flows down and flows into the wooden barrel along the stone trough.

"Yeah, this is what soy milk looks like. It looks delicious."

"It's still raw, and the bean dregs haven't been filtered out. We can call it: small tofu."

"Is this edible?" Niu Dan was still most concerned about the issue of food.

"You can eat it like this, but you have to cook it thoroughly. Then chop some green onions and mix them with soy sauce and pour it over the tofu. The flavor is pure and rich."

"Ah~ I want to eat now."

"If you want to eat it, Aunt Jiang can make it for you, but Aunt Jiang doesn't have green onions and soy sauce."

"My mother grows green onions. What is soy sauce?"

"It's the green sauce. Uncle said that only rich people can afford it."

In the light of the fire from the wormwood, Goudan saw the suspicious transparent liquid at the corner of his brother's mouth. He felt it was too shameful to look at it, so he lowered his head and continued to push the millstone hard.

"Brother, are you tired? Do you want me to push for a while?" Donkey Egg felt his hands itching as he watched his brother pushing hard.

"I'm not tired." Goudan thought of his father's words. He is a man, a real man. How could he say he is tired after pushing the millstone a few times?

Besides, Jiang Yan only soaked about two pounds of beans, so she finished grinding them quickly. She found a piece of linen to separate the soy milk from the dregs and began to cook the soy milk.

Looking at the milky white bean dregs, Niu Dan became curious again, "Aunt Jiang, is this edible?"

"It's edible. Aunt Jiang will make you some bean curd cakes later."

After Jiang Yan and the others cooked the soy milk and cooled it to 85 degrees, she added white vinegar in proportion, stirred it gently, and let it stand to solidify.

Jiang Yan scooped out a small bowl of tofu pudding and placed it aside before she started pressing the tofu.

After the tofu was pressed, she asked Goudan, "Goudan, do you have any fermented black bean paste at home?"

"Have."

"Then go back and ask your mother for a bowl of broad bean paste. Aunt Jiang will make you some fried meat sauce."

"Okay. Aunt Jiang, wait for me. I'll be back soon."

When Goudan heard Aunt Jiang was going to fry some meat sauce for them, he turned and ran out of the shack. When the sound of her voice faded, he had already run to the river.

At this time, it was already dawn. Goudan's shoes fell on the wet ground, making a strange sound.

Jiang Yan was a little curious, and when she looked over, she found that the area outside the shack was obviously wet from the rain. And the area around the shack seemed to have been left behind by the rain.

Just at this moment, Jiang Yan seemed to faintly hear the laughter of an adult man.

She thought she was hallucinating, but the voice was still coming from far away and was not fake.

Jiang Yan knew it wasn't fake, and that it must have been the two older brothers who had helped. So, while the children weren't paying attention, she bowed to them in a gesture of gratitude.

The laughter grew farther and farther away until it could no longer be heard.

Goudan quickly came back, holding a large black ceramic bowl in his hands. He said to Jiang Yan happily, "Aunt Jiang, my mother told you not to make fried meat sauce. It's too wasteful. She asked me to bring two eggs so you can make egg sauce."

Jiang Yan took the large ceramic bowl and immediately wanted to fry some egg sauce. She had eggs at home, but she didn't dare to take them out in front of the three eggs.

Goudan took out two eggs from his arms and placed them next to the large ceramic bowl. He and his two younger brothers waited for Jiang Yan to prepare food for them.

Jiang Yan quickly fried the egg sauce. Niu Dan took a deep breath as he smelled the aroma of eggs and sauce in the air. He said, "My appetite is about to come out."

Jiang Yan just skimmed off the water on the tofu pudding and neatly served him a bowl, covering it with some freshly fried egg sauce.

Niu Dan looked at the white, trembling tofu pudding with greasy egg sauce on top, took it, said, "Thank you, Aunt Jiang," and started eating.

Goudan and Ludan wanted to ask their brother if the food tasted good, but seeing him eating with his head down without saying a word, they didn't need to ask.

Fortunately, Jiang Yan was quick and efficient, and quickly put the tofu pudding with egg sauce into their hands.

When Guan came over out of curiosity, she saw her three sons licking the food from their bowls, mumbling incoherently, "Aunt Jiang, it's so delicious! We can't get enough."

"It doesn't matter if you haven't eaten enough. We can continue eating tomorrow morning. Aunt Jiang will make bean curd cakes for you now."

Bean curd cakes are easy to make, but they use a lot of oil. Oil and water are scarce in this area, so the pork skin I cut off yesterday came in handy.

The iron pan was heated, and the greasy side of the meat skin was gently rubbed on the iron pan. The rich meat aroma was immediately released, attracting all the attention of the three eggs.

Jiang Yan smiled without saying anything, but her hands were busy spreading the paste made of multi-grain flour and bean dregs into the pot.

After a while, the appetizing aroma mixed with the fragrance of meat, noodles and beans quickly filled the entire shack and spread out through the open door.

This time, even Guan was shocked. It was the first time she had smelled such a unique fragrance.

"Jiang family sister, what delicious food did you make? It smells so good! I can smell it from far away."

What Guan said was a bit mysterious. She was only a few steps away, which was very different from the far away she said.
