Chapter 32 Collecting Beans

Zhao Daqing’s little cousins ​​also like Zhao Zhitong very much. They feel that the little cousin is festive just looking at her chubby flesh, and most importantly, she is also very nice, and if she has something delicious, they will share it with them.

They ate a lot of delicious candies with their little cousin today.

Zhao Daqing, who didn't know what he was thinking of, suddenly suggested: "Father and mother, anyway, you are going to my little aunt's house in the afternoon, or, my brothers and sisters and I will go to their house to play with my little aunt first."

As soon as this suggestion was put forward, it was ruthlessly rejected by the second aunt: "This is not acceptable. After your little aunt and cousin go back, they will go to school. When you go, no one will play with you. It's for your little sister." Uncle is making trouble."

Standing under the eaves, Sun Kang, who was thinking, couldn't help being taken aback when he heard this: "Did the girl send you to school?"

Sun Mei and Zhao Dong were just about to answer, but on the way to pick lotus leaves, the second aunt Liu who had already found out rushed to answer.

"Yes, Dad, you don't know, Tongtong is a smart girl. Xuexue Meng in the school personally mentioned that Tongtong should go to the school to study, and she will be admitted to the school in a few days."

When Sun Kang and Zhao Guifen heard the news, their first reaction was surprise: "Really? This is a good thing."

Second Uncle Zhao Youli, at this moment, his face was full of pride, and he was as happy as two-five or eight hundred: "Hahaha, isn't it? As the saying goes, a nephew is like an uncle, and it doesn't matter who the niece is."

Everyone had question mark faces: "..." Are you sure?

Sun Youcai on the   side joked: "That little Tongtong is really dangerous. Fortunately, Xiao Tongtong looks like my little uncle. If it looks like you, the second brother, it will be a bad dish."

Sun Youli: "Sun Youcai! You want to fight!"

Everyone couldn't help being amused.

At this time, Zhao Guifen urged: "Okay, okay, don't stand and chat, it's getting late, don't delay the students from eating, you have to go, go quickly."

As he spoke, he put a package on the cart.

Sun Mei hurriedly stopped: "Mother, you don't need to give us anything, we didn't bring anything when we came, so you give us back."

Zhao Guifen put the package away, urged Zhao Dong to push the cart out, then patted her daughter's hand and said, "It's not something expensive, it's just me and your two sister-in-laws who made some clothes and shoes for Tongtong."

As he spoke, he sent the family of three outside the door.

Zhao Zhitong sat in the car, waving his little hands, saying goodbye to his grandparents.

Farewell to the grandfather's family, a group of three, pushing the cart, and left slowly.

Not long after lunch, the two aunts, the second uncle and the third uncle came with a bunch of radish heads.

The uncle didn't come because he had to collect medicinal materials.

When they arrived, Zhao Dong and Sun Mei had just had a good meal.

Entering the yard, looking at the tools for making tofu, everyone felt very novel.

Sun Youcai looked at the tofu basket and asked, "Sister, is the tofu made from here?"

Sun Mei nodded, then smiled and introduced to several people: "This one is for shaping, this one is for straining soybean milk..."

The eldest aunt, Xiao Zhao, looked at these grinding tools and listened to the complicated steps in Sun Mei's mouth. She was dumbfounded: "I have to grind the beans into juice first. It's so laborious to eat. I'm clumsy." , I don’t know if I can do it well.”

Sun Mei smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, you don't have to worry, it's actually not troublesome, it's very simple. I'll teach you how to do it later, I'm sure you'll be able to understand it after a while."

Second aunt Liu's temperament is vigorous and decisive, she immediately slapped her thigh: "Then what are you waiting for, let's do it quickly."

As he said that, he rolled up his sleeves and pointed to the tofu baskets and wooden barrels: "Sister, do these grinding tools and wooden barrels need to be washed?"

Seeing Sun Mei nodding, she began to scrub vigorously.

Seeing that Mrs. Liu has started to work, Mrs. Zhao hastily rolled up her sleeves, not to be outdone.

Even a few children also helped.

The second uncle directly took on the work of carrying water.

Seeing them coming, they went straight to work without drinking any water, both Zhao Dong and Sun Mei felt very sorry.

Sun Youli didn't care at all, he picked up the pole directly, and said carelessly: "Look at what you two said, we are here to work."

After finishing speaking, the person has already walked out of the courtyard gate.

Because of the extra manpower, in order to improve efficiency, Zhao Dong thought about building another stove in the yard, so that two pots could be cooked together.

As soon as the suggestion was put forward, it was unanimously approved by everyone.

So, Zhao Dong and Sun Youcai first worked together to send the soybeans to the water mill, and then immediately came back to move the stones or mud to build the stove.

A few little guys also ran before and after, helping to lift stones and delivering mud.

The big guy didn't rest for a moment.

Soon, the first pot of soy milk was ready. Sun Mei didn't rush to order plaster water, but called a few dolls in, and one of them filled them with a bowl of soy milk and added sugar as a reward for their hard work today. .

"Thank you little aunt!"

The little radish heads were so happy that they held their own soy milk, ran out of the kitchen happily, lay down on the table in the yard, and drank.

The soy milk is sweet, and it flows into the stomach, as if it flows into the heart. They feel that today is the sweetest day for them.

After Zhao Dong and the others built the stove, Sun Mei's last pot of tofu was already finalizing.

At this time, the door of the house was also knocked, and from time to time, the villagers chatted and laughed.

The villagers who want to sell tofu came to wholesale tofu.

As soon as she heard the commotion outside, the second aunt Liu stepped forward, closed the kitchens, and bolted the door inside, and said with a vigilant expression: "Don't be discovered by others!" , let's go out after finishing."

By this time, Zhao Dong in the courtyard had already opened the gate, ready to open for business.

"Brother Dong! Is the tofu ready? Let's pull the tofu!"

As soon as they entered the door, they shouted cheerfully.

Zhao Dong also smiled cheerfully and said, "Quick, quick, it will be done right away."

Those people were not in a hurry, they waved their hands and said, "No hurry, no hurry, come and take a look at the beans we harvested."

When they came this time, they brought beans. They bought them by the way when they sold tofu in the morning.

Zhang Qiang smiled naively: "Brother Dong, take a look at mine first. These are the beans I collected when I sold tofu in the morning. They are all good beans."

Zhao Dong opened the sack, glanced at it, and said with a smile, "That's right, how much did you charge?"

Zhang Qiang is a real person, with a cheerful smile, he answered truthfully: "I'm afraid that some villagers won't believe in our kind of bulk shoppers, so I'll take it at a penny higher than the market price, ninety-nine pennies per stone. When they heard it, they were more than happy to give it to me.”

Zhao Dong nodded, knowing what was in his mind, and after weighing together with Sun Youli, he accepted the original price of one hundred pennies and one stone.

Sun Youcai next to him knew a few words, and took on the responsibility of keeping accounts. Of course, without a pen and paper, he still used the most primitive method, using charcoal to record on stones.

Seeing that the business was getting bigger and bigger, Zhao Dong decided that when he went to the market tomorrow, he had to buy some paper and pens for himself.
