Chapter 47 Trivia

The carefully selected beans are all of the same variety. The soy milk is very soft and has a thicker aroma after being boiled. Compared with Daying in the border town, the soy milk is made from other beans of different varieties. , much more refined.

Add some lard to the filtered bean dregs, knead them into cakes, fry them yellow over low heat, or add a little leek for a more special taste.

The cooked soybean milk is placed in wooden barrels, wrapped with hay and animal skins to keep warm.There was no one in the room, and people were guarding the door and windows. Su Wan took out the plaster and began to put it in slowly. When the soy milk formed and turned into bean curd, she put away the plaster.

Taking out some fried bean cakes, soy milk, and bean curd, they were packed in food boxes, and Su Wan called Linger into the room.

"You send this, just say to taste first." Su Wan thought for a while and said, "Douhua can be made sweet."

"Yes, miss." Ling'er saluted and went out with the food box.

There was a big bowl in the room, Su Wan walked to the door and greeted the people outside, "Come in and eat some hot food."

Seeing that Ling'er was well-behaved, Wang Da and Wang Er were very reserved, standing at the door without moving, even Wang Zeng was embarrassed to enter the door so carelessly, and Ah Wu was even more cautious, grabbing his sleeves, she never I have never seen these rules, let alone learned them, and now I feel that I am being compared by Ling'er, and I dare not look at Su Wan with my head down.

The first to enter the door, Song Tusu glanced, said: "Is there no tofu?"

"Drink the soy milk first, it's warm." Su Wan put a bowl into her hand, and seeing that Song Tusu habitually wanted to put it aside, she said, "You have to drink it if you don't like it. It's good for your health. This is called good medicine. ...you just treat it as good soy milk and taste bitter."

"If I had known, I would have asked Wang Zeng to come in and see if I wanted to come in." Song Tusu said, but he still held the bowl, gulped it down, and hurriedly put the bowl aside.

Whether the others did not enter the room, Su Wan took out all the bowls.

There are also three bowls of soy milk and three bowls of bean curd to send to Song Qiu.The remaining bean curd is poured into the burlap, supported by a square mold, and a wooden basin filled with water is pressed on it, and the formed tofu can be seen after a while.

The wind outside suddenly became stronger, and sporadic snowflakes fell from the sky. Su Wan stood at the door, looking at the vast expanse of whiteness outside.

Song Tusu went to Song Qiu's side, and he didn't know when he would come back. When the tofu was ready and Ling'er came back, Su Wan would go to Zheng's house right away.There are many ways to make tofu, and it could have been directly described to Zheng Yanfeng, but after thinking about it, Su Wan gave up saving trouble and chose to demonstrate it herself.

The snow from the yard leading to the small gate has been swept away, Ling'er pushed open the gate, and walked slowly towards the yard with the food box.

Standing at the door, watching Ling'er come in, Su Wan hurriedly said, "Go and warm up."

"Yes." Ling'er saluted respectfully again, and went into the room to warm her hands.

Song Tusu came striding over there. She was still wearing thin clothes and a layer of snow fell on her body. She just stood outside, facing Su Wan, and said with a smile: "Are you ready? I'll take you there .”

"It's not ready yet." Su Wan stepped aside, "Come in to keep warm."

"No, I'm not cold." Song Tusu looked up at the sky, reached out to catch a handful of snowflakes, opened his hands, watched the snowflakes melt quickly, and said, "It feels comfortable like this."

He opened his mouth, but in the end he closed his mouth and said nothing more.

Inside, Wang Da and Wang Er filled the tofu, put it in a wooden barrel, and took it out.Ling'er followed with her head down, standing behind Su Wan.

The snow gradually grew bigger, and she was drenched from the yard to the door. Su Wan climbed into the carriage, Linger came in afterward, and Song Tusu sat outside to drive the carriage.Wang Zeng, Wang Da, Wang Er and Ah Wu immediately returned to the house, closed the door,

The back door of Zheng's house is still guarded by people, and it is still the yard from the last time I came.

There were a few more charcoal pots in the room, and a few maids knelt on the ground to fiddle with the charcoal pots. Zheng Yanfeng had obviously been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Su Wan coming in, he immediately said: "The small kitchen is ready. If you need help with the cooking, just call Okay, I'll let them all wait at the door."

"Okay." Su Wan nodded slightly, then turned and went to the small kitchen.

Song Tusu stayed in the room, sitting silently away from the charcoal basin, without speaking.

After entering the small kitchen, Su Wan said, "Ling'er is here."

"Yes."

First, after looking at the ingredients in the small kitchen, Su Wan silently calculated a few dishes before starting to cook.Ling'er took the initiative to sit in front of the stove and light the fire, and didn't pay attention to Su Wan's movements.

Potted tofu, pan-fried tofu, and a soup.

The last one is dried tofu, which takes a long time, so Su Wan didn't sit down, and directly took out the finished ones and put them on the plate.

After finishing, Su Wan turned around and walked out of the small kitchen. Song Tusu was still in the same posture in the room, but the maid serving Zheng Yanfeng had changed, and her appearance was different. "It's all done." Su Wan said.

Immediately stood up and walked to Su Wan's side, Song Tusu said without turning his head, "Then we will leave."

"Okay." Zheng Yanfeng stood up rarely, and sent the two of them to the gate of the courtyard.

It had been agreed a long time ago that neither Su Wan nor Song Tusu would show up, and Zheng Yanfeng borrowed the hands of Zheng's family to bring out tofu, bean sprouts, soy milk, and so on.Only a limited number of people can taste the prepared dishes at this time, but it can be of great help.

If Su Wan was alone, she would probably only be able to sell the prepared tofu on the street, so the money she would earn would naturally be limited.

Counting the money in her heart, Su Wan looked a little preoccupied, she got into the carriage and didn't speak, and Ling'er sat beside her silently.The cart was still pulled by a pinto horse, and because it was snowing outside, an animal skin was draped over its body.

After snorting, the flowery horse left from the back door of Zheng's house, circled around, and finally stopped outside the small gate of the Song Mansion's house.

Inside, Wang Zeng rubbed his hands, opened the door angrily, and let the carriage in.

Seeing Wang Zengdong's flushed face, it was obvious that he had been waiting at the back door, so Su Wan decided to buy some servants as soon as she got the money, otherwise there would be more and more things in the future, and these few people would not be busy at all.

The small kitchen in the yard next door is used to make tofu, and Wang Zeng and the others can cook and eat by themselves. The three men share a room, and Ah Wu has a room by himself. On the contrary, Song Tusu’s yard here does not have a small kitchen. Song Qiu's side.

Ask Ling'er to eat together in the small kitchen next door, while Su Wan and Song Tusu go to Song Qiu's side alone.

On the way, Song Tusu said sullenly: "The Ning family is going to fortify the city. Basuotu was imprisoned in the palace by the emperor. The Ning family may know something. Going to fortify the city this time is definitely not easy. I want to go directly to the emperor and confess... ..."

"Did you kill the magistrate of Leicheng?" Su Wan asked.

"En." Song Tusu nodded.

"If you were still in the border town camp and killed ten county magistrates, the emperor would not blame you, but this is the capital." Su Wan took a breath, her voice fluttering, "Since you are here, you have to abide by the rules here."

"It's a good thing I brought private soldiers, otherwise I would really..." Song Tusu sighed and stopped talking.

In front, Song Chuan'er carried the book into the yard, looked back at the two of them, and stood there waiting.

Starting from Basuotu's planning, and now finally entering Beijing, even if the Ning family tried their best to find out something, Su Wan didn't think it should be too concerned. The Zheng family and the Ning family are both aristocratic families, but the Ning family has another Shangshu seems to be more powerful, but there is also Song Tusu here. No one knows her in Beijing, but she is a myth in the border town of Daying.

It's not like Song Tusu didn't know these things, she probably didn't like to gossip like this, after so long, there was still no result.

After staying in Daying in the border town for so long, Song Tusu's personality has also changed to adapt there, and she doesn't like and doesn't adapt to the flamboyant relationship.

Asking herself, Su Wan found that she was more adaptable to the capital city, and there were many variables and possibilities in dealing with people. But in the camp of the border town, she could only work hard to survive every day. When Baruch led the troops to call, she prayed to continue to live .

The camp in the border town let Su Wan live, and the capital let Su Wan decide how to live.

Kneeling on the cushion, picking up the chopsticks, Su Wan ate slowly.

"The tofu is good, this is the soup." Song Qiu seemed to be in a good mood, he looked at Su Wan and then at Song Tusu, and the meaning of his smile was unclear.

Not noticing Song Qiu's eyes, Su Wan finished her meal and waited for Song Tusu, ready to leave together.

There was nothing to say, Song Tusu went over to look at Song Chuan'er, saw that he had already started to study, so he said nothing, and left with Su Wan.

In the yard, Ling'er was guarding the door, and there was someone beside him, who was sent by Zheng Yanfeng.

Someone sent a sealed letter. Su Wan opened it and looked at it. It turned out that the contract was drawn up by Zheng Yanfeng. Most of it was fine, only a small part of the content was vague. Even if I know these words, I don't necessarily know how to write them.

"You write." Su Wan stepped aside.

Picking up the brush, Song Tusu wrote slowly, and the characters didn't look very beautiful, but they were neat.

When someone brought the letter back, Su Wan went directly to the yard next door. She had to soak the beans in advance, grind them at night, cook the soy milk before dawn, and make the bean curd. Before eating in the morning, the tender tofu would be ready. .

This is the first time that it was specially made and sent to the Zheng family, and Zheng Yanfeng secretly arranged to sell it, Su Wan was extra careful.

After finishing her work, she came out of the warm room, and the cold wind outside instantly blew away the heat from her body. Su Wan tightened her cloak and hurried back to the original yard.

There was a charcoal basin burning in the room, but the temperature was really useless.

Some wonder why there is no kang in every household here. Su Wan remembers that kang appeared very early, because it is really not technical, and the stove will become hot after a long time of burning. It is natural to think that if it becomes bigger The stove is so big that people can sleep on it, so it is naturally a kang.

"Why not?" Su Wan asked Song Tusu.

Lying on the bed on his back, with his arm pillowed, Song Tusu said lightly: "Someone probably thought of it, but they didn't have the ability to do it. What you said is simple, but it may not be so easy to do..."

Seems to be such a reason, Su Wan didn't ask any more questions, subconsciously leaned on Song Tusu, and slowly fell asleep.

At night, Su Wan woke up in the dark, put plaster in the boiled soybean milk, and went back to sleep.Wang Da, Wang Er and the others will naturally put the bean curd in the sackcloth, and there will be warm soft tofu in the morning.

The carriage sent by Zheng Yanfeng was already waiting outside the small gate, and the carriage was driven by familiar faces.
