"Haha, no, the thought of witnessing the formation of tofu with my own eyes makes me a little excited. I hope it will be successful!"

With a smile on the corner of Li Yuan's mouth, he said to everyone: "Everyone is ready, the tofu is about to be baked."

Li Yuan removed the stones that were pressing on the plank, and then removed the plank.

Then the gauze curtain on the tofu was lifted again, and then...on the mold, a whole piece of white and tender tofu appeared in front of everyone!

The color of the tofu is bright, and the pattern of the gauze curtain can still be seen on it.

The juicy tofu, with a hint of bean yellow, just lifted the gauze curtain, and the tangy bean fragrance spread instantly!

Li Yuan took out a kitchen knife and cut off a small piece of tofu.

When the tender tofu enters the mouth, it is rich, smooth, and has a very bomby taste. The taste immediately makes Li Yuan's taste buds feel extremely enjoyable!

Studio.

"How about it, is the tofu delicious?"

"Looking white and tender, it should be delicious, right?!"

"The appearance of this tofu is good. You can tell it must be delicious!"

"Look at the enjoyment expression on the host's face, it must be delicious!"

"I'm so excited, I actually witnessed the whole process of making tofu! And it's the most primitive stone-ground tofu!"

"The anchor is so good, he can even make tofu by himself!"

"How does it taste? Are you talking, anchor?"

At this time, Li Yuan had already put the spoon aside, and then nodded in satisfaction.

"The taste is delicate, the taste is fragrant, and the taste...is very good."

After finishing speaking, Lu Yuan started to pick up the shovel on the side and cut it on the wooden board. In just a few seconds, the big piece of tofu was divided into several squares of the same size, and then placed aside in the plate.

Studio.

"I just said that the tofu made by the host must taste very good!"

"It looks delicious."

"It must be delicious. Look at that tofu. The fineness alone is beyond comparison with ordinary tofu!"

"Anchor, what are you doing here, are you giving it away?"

Li Yuan: "I made a lot of tofu this time, and I couldn't eat it by myself. I just gave it to everyone while the tofu was still hot."

After installing it, Li Yuan took the tofu and went out.

First, I sent the millstone back to the uncle's house next door, and gave the uncle two pieces of tofu by the way, and then sent them to the aunt, the third uncle, and other neighbors respectively. When I came back, it was already half an hour later.

Studio.

"The anchor's life is so leisurely..."

"I feel that life in the countryside is very humane. Yesterday I saw Mrs. Xu coming to give the anchor a can of white radish and pickles. A few days ago, my third uncle sent mangoes from other places..."

"No, the host is either giving gifts or receiving them."

"Shouldn't this be considered a gift? I think it's just an expression of humanity."

"To be honest, in the countryside, it's actually very common for you to come and give something to me, and it's not for any reward."

"That's right, in fact, there is no purpose in giving gifts every time, it's just the most common communication."

"This kind of purposeless friendship is really touching..."

In the evening, Li Yuan brought the tofu and soy milk he made to the grandmother's house.

A dish of mapo tofu, a dish of fried tofu with dried tofu, a dish of stewed tofu, and a bowl of hot soy milk. The three of them sat around and obviously had a great time eating.

……

"Today is the second day of the second lunar month and the first traditional festival after the first lunar month."

"Actually, there are many sayings about this festival. Among them, the most familiar proverb is probably February [-], when the dragon raises its head?"

It was just past six o'clock in the morning.

After Li Yuan washed up, he was busy making noodles in the kitchen. Obviously, eating noodles on February [-] is also a custom.

Studio.

"On February [-]nd, the dragon shaves his head, and everyone's small households make cattle. This proverb is known to all the children here!"

"Yes, yes, on February [-]nd, the dragon rises, and on August [-]nd, the dragon ends. February [-]nd is the birthday of the land father-in-law, and it is very lively here!"

"February [-] is to eat spring pancakes, no, we have already started preparing them in the morning."

"It seems that the customs are different in every place? I saw that the host...is he rolling noodles?"

"The anchor should be from the Northeast, right? We in the Northeast have to eat noodles and pork heads on February [-]nd!"

"Haha, the upstairs is right, the anchor is really from the Northeast!"

"I don't know how this February [-]nd came about. Although everyone spends it in different ways, they all attach great importance to this festival."

"Really, no matter where it is, February [-] is quite lively."

Li Yuan nodded.

"February [-] is a traditional festival in our country, also known as Qinglong Festival or Dragon Head Festival. Simply put, it is a day to respect the dragon and pray for rain, so that God can bless the fields with a good harvest."

"This festival has a long history. According to legend, this festival originated in the period of Fuxi, the head of the Three Emperors."

"It is said that on the second day of the second lunar month every year, the emperor's mother will deliver food, and the royal driver will plow and manage their own fields. Later, the Yellow Emperor, Tang Yao, Yu Shun, and Xia Yu followed the example of the previous kings. King Wu of Zhou not only followed this traditional practice, And it is also implemented as an important national policy. On the second day of February, a major ceremony is held, and all civil and military officials are allowed to plow an acre of land. This is the historical legend of the Dragon Head Festival."

"However, there are still some myths that said that Wu Zetian abolished Tang Lizhou and proclaimed himself emperor, which aroused the anger of the Jade Emperor and ordered the Dragon King not to rain for three years. But the Dragon King couldn't bear to see the people's lives burnt, so he secretly rained a heavy rain. This incident was reported by the Jade Emperor. When the emperor learned about it, he punished the Dragon King from the Heavenly Palace, stripped off the dragon scales, and demoted him to the lower world to suffer. However, the common people were grateful for the rain from the Dragon King and prayed every day. Finally, the Jade Emperor was moved. Finally, on the second day of February, the Dragon King was released. Then, there is the proverb that on February [-], the dragon raises its head."

Studio.

"Is there such a legend?"

"It turns out that this festival on February [-] has such a long history... No wonder it has spread so widely."

"I think...the north seems to pay more attention to this festival than our south."

"Is it because there are more farmers farming in the north, but there are fewer rivers, so they pay more attention to rainwater?"

"When you say that, it really makes sense!"

Originally, the netizen made a joke, but Li Yuan nodded seriously, expressing his agreement.

"Actually, what this netizen said is quite reasonable."
