Transmigrated into a Farmhouse: The Stepmother Spoils Her Child to the Heavens

But he had to admit that Lin Cai was right; one cannot avoid contacting, touching, or looking at something just because one is afraid of it.

Both the Gu and Lin families were busy preparing, and the matter of Sanhu going to the academy was put on the agenda.

The people of Gujia Village were curious about what the Lin family was doing when they saw them working together. They were surprised to see that the Lin family parents had finished making tofu.

Their curiosity was immediately aroused to its peak.

"Oh my, Lin family, what have you done? It looks so beautiful! It's so white, tender and smooth, just like a child's skin!"

As Li Dazui passed by the Lin family's house, he saw tofu displayed in the yard. It looked white and he didn't know what it was, so he couldn't suppress his curiosity and went inside.

She found the white and tender tofu very appealing, so she reached out and touched it. Unexpectedly, this touch left a dark mark.

When Lin's mother saw the black marks on the white tofu, she glared at Li Dazui and said, "Li Dazui, you can look, but why did you touch it? I didn't stop you from looking, and I didn't kick you out. Why did you do that?"

"You've dirtied a perfectly good piece of tofu. How can anyone eat it now?"

Upon hearing Lin's mother say it was food, Li Dazui, who had been completely indifferent, suddenly opened his mouth wide.

"What? You're saying this white square thing is edible? How can you eat something so white? Could it be poisonous?"

"Pah, pah, pah! You're the poisonous one, your whole family is poisonous! My tofu is fragrant and white, absolutely delicious! Go away, go away... don't ruin my tofu."

Li Dazui spoke recklessly, which angered Lin's mother, who kicked him out. In less than half a day, the whole village knew that the Lin family had a white thing that could be eaten.

Lin Cai was stunned when she heard the news; she hadn't expected the news about tofu to spread so quickly.

It had only been a short time since it was made, but the entire village of Gujia knew about it. The speed at which it spread was no less than that of technology.

Who spread the word?

"It's Li Dazui. I bet Li Dazui saw the tofu in our yard. In just one afternoon, the whole Gu family village knows about it."

"Little sister, now the whole Gu family village knows. What should we do next?"

"Just do what needs to be done, don't worry about anything else. I'll have Da Chui go get the tofu tomorrow, you go with Da Chui."

Lin Bao said he had no objection, but he was still a little worried about selling tofu. After all, it was a novel thing that no one had ever tried before. Would anyone actually buy it?

When they set off in the morning, Lin Cai went with them and fussed around in the kitchen for a while before coming out.

When Lin Bao saw his younger sister bring out a bowl of soy sauce, he was a little puzzled: "Aren't we selling tofu? What are you doing with soy sauce?"

Lin Cai asked him to hold the soy sauce, and then took a piece of tofu from the side and tore off a piece of tofu.

Then, in front of everyone, he ate a piece of tofu dipped in soy sauce. Although it wasn't as delicious as chili oil, the taste was still acceptable.

Seeing this, Lin Bao also ate a piece like his little sister, and his eyes lit up when he put it in his mouth.

Actually, he ate freshly cooked tofu when he got back yesterday, but the tofu had no flavor then, and eating too much of it was overwhelming.

I've now discovered that you can dip it in soy sauce, and it tastes great!

After seeing them off, Lin Cai took a few pieces of tofu home, knowing that Gu Dachui and the others definitely wouldn't be able to come back for lunch.

She wanted to send them something, and as for what to send, things made of tofu would be the best.

Where there are people, there is gossip; where there is gossip, there is trouble. Gujia Village is no exception.

Ever since everyone knew that the Lin family made tofu, the villagers of Gujia Village would intentionally or unintentionally pass by the Lin family's door.

They said they knew how tofu was made, and they wanted to know how it was made, and even more so, how it was eaten, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't find out anything.

Because they couldn't get or see it, everyone felt resentful and went directly to the village chief hoping he could speak up for them.

Gu Dafu, the village chief, listened to their words and looked at them expressionlessly.

"What are you talking about? How am I supposed to say it? What am I supposed to say? Wasn't what they said before clear enough? What more do you want me to say?"

"If someone has the ability to make money, that's their business. If they're unwilling to share it, that's still their business. Even as the village chief, I can't be so shameless as to force them for someone else's sake, can I?"

“Village chief, you’re wrong about that. What do you mean by forcing them? What do you mean by ‘others’? We’re all from the same village, all from Gujia Village. Shouldn’t we help each other?”

"You say it's about helping each other, but why should they help each other? When you wanted to drown that girl from the Lin family in a pig cage, why didn't you say it was about helping each other?"

"The old couple in the Lin family, and their three sons, every time something happens, they try to push the blame onto others. Why didn't you say you'd help each other out back then?"

"Now that you see others making money, you all want it too. Since you all want it, then you can say so yourselves. I don't want to get involved."

Although he is the village chief, he is not a fool. Besides, he is getting old, and in two years, the village chief should be replaced.

If that's the case, why would he offend that girl from the Lin family for the sake of these people?

His wife was so clueless before that she went to act as a go-between for someone, but what happened? She ended up getting nothing in return.

That girl from the Lin family is just like her three brothers. She's willing to do whatever she wants, and if she's not willing, no one can expect anything good from her.

The village chief made his point clear, and the people below were very dissatisfied, but even if they were dissatisfied, they were helpless.

After leaving, someone suggested going to Old Gu's house, and everyone thought it was a good idea, so they went to Old Gu's house.

When the old lady of the Gu family heard why they had come, she almost wanted to sweep them out with a broom.

When Gu Dasao Li Guixiang heard what they were saying, her excitement was completely undisguised.

"What you're saying is true, that you can really make money. Could it be that the girl is just saying it on purpose to lie?"

“Oh, Gui Xiang, how could such a thing be a lie? Besides, Li Da Zui saw it with his own eyes; those white tofu pieces were right there in the yard.”

"Some people have also seen your family's 'Big Hammer' selling tofu in town. If it weren't good quality, do you think your family's 'Big Hammer' could sell it or have anyone buying it?"
