In this way, Su Ziling took Erniu and Su Zizhong, and the three of them carried burdens and went from house to house selling tofu every day.
She didn't let Su's father follow, but carried the load herself. After a few days of exercise, her body was no longer as crispy as it was at the beginning, and now she could still carry a load of tofu.
Four days have passed, and the harvest has been quite good, and some money has been collected, but the more harvest is food and various vegetables.
The main grains are: brown rice, buckwheat, corn, soybeans, peas, broad beans, and some other dried vegetables are also harvested.
Even a few baskets of sweet potatoes were harvested.
Seeing that tomorrow is the day to go to the market, Su's father went out to the mountains to find the bullock cart, while Su's mother, Bai Wei, and Su Chuanbai went to pick leaves.
Even Su Ziling and the others picked two baskets when they came back from selling tofu. The land at home has been plowed and they are now waiting for the rain to plant seeds.
Suddenly there was no work at home, and the most important thing now was selling tofu.
Because they were going to town tomorrow, everyone in the Su family was so busy that their feet didn't even touch the floor.
Starting from the afternoon, Su's mother and the others were responsible for washing the leaves. Su Zimu was sent out to pick limes. There was no vinegar at home, so he had to use limes instead.
The lime has its own fruity aroma, which is a perfect match with the fairy tofu.
Su Ziling was precipitating plant ashes, boiling water, and cutting ingredients.
The yard was very busy, and there were so many people moving so fast that all the tofu was finished by the time it was dark.
The family sat aside, too tired to move. In the end, they looked at the tofu all over the yard, but they were surprisingly satisfied.
As soon as it got dark, Su's father arrived home.
As soon as he entered the door, he met Su Ziling's shining eyes, "Dad, how are you? Have you agreed?"
Father Su took a sip of hot water and then said, "We've found it. I thought our tofu would taste better the hotter the weather, so I told him to set off at noon (12:00). It would be almost the beginning of the day. We arrived at (13:00), the time is just right, the people who go to the market have also arrived, and it is also the time to eat, so I think the business will not be too bad."
Su Ziling nodded, "Just find it. Let's eat. I'll wait for you."
The family gathered around the table and ate very simply, but everyone ate very deliciously. Although they were still not eating well, it was much better than before, at least they were full now.
"Then when should we set off? I'm thinking of getting up early to make tofu." Su Ziling scooped a bowl of egg drop soup for everyone.
"Let's go to Chenshi (7:00-9:00). The mountain road is difficult to walk, and you have to pick tofu. Start early and walk slowly."
Su's father took a sip of the hot soup and instantly felt all the fatigue in his body was gone.
After eating, they went back to their houses. This was something Su Ziling was not used to yet. In modern times, after eating, people would either play games or watch TV. Even if they were lying in bed, they would still check their mobile phones. But now, it’s really all about eating. After dinner, he goes to bed as soon as it gets dark.
The next day, at dawn, Su's mother got up and went to cook while Bai Wei was making tofu.
Axiu, Su Zimu, and Su A'nai were still sleeping, and everyone else was basically up. Even Su Ziling, who was always the last to get up, got up early for the first time today.
Mother Su boiled hot water for her to wash up. Seeing her yawning all day long, her eyes were filled with distress, "Why don't you sleep more? It's still early. I'll call you when the meal is ready."
"I won't sleep anymore." Su Ziling shook her head, probably thinking that she could go to the town to attend the market today. She was so excited that she barely slept much at night, and woke up again at dawn.
After eating, several people picked up tofu and walked out of the mountain. Su's father, Su Chuanbai, Bai Wei, and Su Zizhong each picked up a load.
The mountain road along the way was rugged. If Su's father hadn't led the way, they probably wouldn't have been able to find the way. After an hour, they finally walked out of the mountain. A dusty road was right in front of them, with an oxcart parked on the roadside. .
Seeing Su's father, he jumped down from the bullock cart and waved to them, "This way!"
Looking at their tofu, the old man frowned and said, "With so much tofu, we can only serve two."
Su's father smiled and said to him: "Just two, the family is also very busy."
Su Ziling handed him the tofu that had been mixed early, "Uncle, come and have a taste."
The old man shook his hand, "No, no, I've already eaten."
"Take a taste. I'm really sorry for making you wait for so long. I'll just take it as an apology to you. Just taste it and we'll load the car."
Old man Li looked at the bowl of green tofu in his hand, smelled the sour and spicy taste, and swallowed his saliva.
Unable to hold back, he took a bite and his eyes widened instantly. This tofu...
It’s different from what he usually eats!
The color is different. This one tastes sour, spicy and refreshing, and it doesn't have the beany smell of white tofu. It also has a refreshing fragrance, which is icy and cool. It is very refreshing to eat.
His family's life was pretty good, and he could often eat white tofu from the town, and he often went to town, but he had never seen such colored tofu.
Unable to hold back, he took two more bites. The more he ate, the more sour and refreshing he became, and the more he ate, the more addictive he became.
Although he was curious about what kind of tofu this was, he still understood the rules that he should know. Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, and don't look at what you shouldn't look at.
After eating a bowl of tofu, the tofu at the back was also packed. He walked over, hesitated again and again, and finally spoke. He said to Su's father: "Brother, how do you sell this tofu? Can I buy some for my family to try? taste?"
Father Su looked at Su Ziling.
Old Man Li thought they were afraid of wasting time, so he pointed to the village not far away, "Don't worry, I won't waste your time. Our village is right there, very close. I'll yell here and the old lady will come out." .”
Su Ziling smiled and said, "Of course, our tofu costs two cents for a bowl, three cents for two bowls, and five cents for three bowls. How much do you need, old man?"
Old Man Li's eyes widened, "Such a big bowl only costs two cents?"
Seeing Su Ziling nodding, his lips trembled. He didn't know what to say, but looking at this family, he saw that they were honest people. He suggested: "Your tofu is delicious, and it's the only one. Old man, I After all these years of driving sports cars, I have never seen anything like this."
"Besides, your portion is quite large, so you can mix it and eat it directly. I have a suggestion. It's up to you whether you listen or not."
Su Ziling bowed to him, "Old man, if you are willing to give us some advice, it's too late for us to be happy. To be honest, our village is quite far away, we haven't been to the town much, and we really don't know much about prices. "
Old Man Li sighed, "I want three bowls. You mix them first. I'll call the old lady and tell you slowly."
The old man walked a little closer and saw a tree on the side of the road. It was very thick, but it was easy to climb. The old man hugged the tree pole and climbed up in a few moments.
He stood on the branch of the tree, put his hand to his mouth in the shape of a trumpet, "Guiying, Guiying!"
There were mountains all around, and his echoes spread far away. The response came from the other side as soon as he finished speaking, "What's up?"
"Bring out a basin, I bought some tofu!" It didn't matter if he didn't yell. As soon as he heard someone selling tofu, everyone in the village followed suit and came out with basins.
The corner of Su Ziling's mouth twitched, and she once again realized that transportation was all about walking, and communication was all about shouting.
In their last life, they were like this when they were young. When the rice was ready, their mother stood at the door and shouted twice that it was time to eat, and basically everyone in the village could hear it.
Old man Li jumped down from the tree, patted the ashes on his hands, walked over and continued: "Your tofu is large, delicious, and only one portion. You can sell it for three cents a bowl without worrying about selling it. Besides, you still do this Five coins and three bowls, can you make money?"
Su Ziling touched her nose and said, "We just sell in the village. As you know, there is basically no money in the village. All the money is exchanged with food, so it is cheaper and we can make hard money. Isn't this my first time out in the mountains? It’s not easy to go out into the mountains once, so I just wanted to test the water first, but luckily I met my old man and you reminded me.”
Uncle Li saw that she was good-looking and could talk, so he couldn't help but nag a few more words, "Don't call me uncle, my surname is Li. Just call me Uncle Li. That's fine too."
Su Ziling smiled and shouted, "Uncle Li."
Old Man Li smiled so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, and said to her again, "You will never sell enough tofu. Even if you sell it for four cents a bowl, there will be a lot of people grabbing it. If you are lucky and meet a wealthy family coming out to buy it, then That’s what it’s called.”
"You bad old man, what nonsense are you talking about?" A woman yelled when she saw Old Man Li from a distance.
Old Man Li turned around, and when he saw the group of people following her, his mouth twitched, "Why are they following?"
Aunt Li looked back and said, "Didn't you say someone was selling tofu? When they heard it, they naturally came out."
