"Okay, I still have some fat sausages at home, and I think I still have a few bones. I still have some lean meat hanging in the well, so there's no need to buy these." Su Ziling took stock of the things she bought yesterday. After doing the calculation, it seemed like it was really good. No need to buy it.

"No need to buy it, that's enough. You can eat whatever you have at home. Your uncles are not very particular people." Mr. Su said solemnly.

Su Ziling followed him, "Grandpa, are you tired? If you are, just rest for a while. Don't be in a hurry. We'll start earlier today than yesterday."

This is also due to the fact that the family members are so excited that no one can sleep, so they get up very motivated to make tofu in the early morning.

"You're not tired, where are you now? You, grandpa, and I, when we were working as masons, we could easily pick up two hundred kilograms of stone, but now~"

He sighed, "I'm old! I'm old!"

A few people walked around and arrived at the place where they got on the bus yesterday at around 9:00.

The old man stabilized the bucket and looked around, "Where is the bullock cart you are looking for? Don't be unreliable, right?"

Su Ziling looked at Su Zizhong, "Brother, are you going or should I go?"

Su Zizhong looked at the tree and said, "I'll go."

He climbed up the tree in a few seconds, with his hands around his mouth in the shape of a trumpet, "Old man Li, old man Li, let's go!"

His voice was so loud that it echoed with the mountains on all sides.

As the voice fell from the mountain, an echo came from the other side, "Here we come!"

When he opened his voice, not only he, but also those who bought tofu yesterday were moved.

Good guy, he drove the bullock cart in front, followed by a huge group of people. Everyone was so conscious that they all took the basins. Unlike yesterday, some people didn't take the basins and went home to get them again.

Mr. Su looked at the battle and asked, "Renting an ox cart for such a big battle? Do you still need someone to escort you?"

Su Ziling: "..."

Not to mention Su Ziling, even Su Zizhong, who had always been calm, couldn't hold it in. The corner of his mouth twitched and he said, "Those people are here to sell tofu."

"Buying... buying tofu?" Mr. Su stuttered.

Soon, he was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth. When he saw them waiting here, the group of people didn't wait for the bullock cart and swarmed them directly.

"Xiaoqing, give me five bowls!"

"I want three bowls!"

"I want five bowls too!"

Everyone stretched out their hands and surrounded them. Su Ziling and Su Zizhong were very calm. After all, the situation in the county yesterday was even more exaggerated than this. But Mr. Su, who had never seen them before, was so frightened that he lost control of his expression.

Even though Su's father had already met him once, he was still shocked again.

"Ladies, ladies, please stop crowding. Wait until I load the tofu into the car before mixing it. I can't mix it even if it's on the ground!"

Su Ziling shouted loudly.

Old man Li drove the bullock cart up, and he was more heroic, "Give way, give way, buy the tofu after you have packed it, why are you in a hurry!"

Everyone stepped aside, and a few people put the tofu on the car. The group of people who had just put it away gathered around again, one bowl for you, one bowl for me, three bowls for this, five bowls for that, and soon the load Su Ziling picked was sold. It's over.

The crowd dispersed, and Mr. Su's words about running away from home finally came back, but only five words came back, "I'll be a good boy..."

Old Uncle Li looked at Su Ziling, "Who is this?"

"My grandpa, that's my third uncle over there, and this is my dad, the one you saw yesterday." She looked at Mr. Su, "Grandpa, this is Mr. Li. I sold tofu yesterday thanks to his reminder."

Uncle Li is talkative, "Brother Su, your granddaughter is very capable. Her skill in making tofu is superb, and her seasonings are unprecedented. She is very popular here."

"Thanks to Brother Li, otherwise these two children would be completely confused and their eyes would be black."

"Grandpa, you go back first. We are about to set off. We don't know what the situation will be like today." Su Ziling and Su Zizhong got on the bullock cart.

"Okay, be careful. It doesn't matter if you can't sell out. It's almost time to go home and don't get caught in the dark." Mr. Su warned carefully while holding the pair of empty buckets.

"I got it, Grandpa, go back quickly!" Su Ziling sat in the car and waved to them.

Half an hour later, the ox cart arrived at the county town, which happened to be 10:00am.

With yesterday's experience, Mr. Li drove the bullock cart directly to the place where she set up the stall yesterday.

Because it is not a market today, there are indeed a lot less people setting up stalls, but there is a group of people who are particularly conspicuous. They each hold a basin in their hands, standing together, not knowing what they are talking about, and their expressions are very excited. .

When they saw the bullock cart slowly approaching, the group's eyes lit up and they rushed forward.

Old man Li could not move even an inch, the bullock cart could not stop smoothly, and he could not move things out.

It was time for Su Ziling to appear again. She was standing on the bullock cart, trembling and her legs were shaking a little. "Ladies, please stop crowding. There is a lot of tofu today, and everyone has it, so can you step back a little and let me go?" I'll stop the ox cart, otherwise we won't be able to sell tofu!"

After everyone heard this, they all stepped back obediently. Old Man Li breathed a sigh of relief. After the cart stopped, he unloaded the things. He took the cow and ran away. He couldn't wait to drive the cow, for fear that he would be surrounded again if he was too late. .

"Xiaoqing, give me ten bowls." After she gave the money to Su Zizhong, she chatted with Su Ziling while he was mixing tofu.

"You came very early today. I thought you would come late. It's my fault that I waited early, otherwise I might not be able to buy it again."

Su Ziling moved quickly without raising her head. She skillfully put the seasonings in, bumped them back and forth in the gourd and scoop, mixed them thoroughly, poured them into the aunt's basin, and started mixing the second portion.

"Yes, I came a little early today, and I was also very worried. I was worried that you wouldn't be there when I arrived, and I didn't know where to look for it. I even thought about taking a gong and selling it all the way."

After she said this, everyone laughed.

"No, your tofu is so delicious. This weather is the perfect time to have a bowl. It's sour and spicy, appetizing and refreshing, but today's one seems to smell better."

"Yes, I added two more seasonings today, and it does taste better." Soon the first ten bowls were finished.

"Xiaoqing, give me five bowls!"

Just like that, you had five bowls and I had ten bowls. Five barrels were quickly sold out. The crowd dispersed, and there were only three barrels left.

She wiped the sweat from her forehead, rubbed her wrists, and kept scooping things, mixing tofu, and bumping the ladle back and forth. Her wrists had begun to turn red.

Su Zizhong lowered his eyes and frowned as he looked at her red wrist and her gentle kneading movements.

He wanted to help, but...

He tried it several times, but either too much or too little seasoning was added. He had obviously seen it so many times, but it didn't work once he got started.

"Does it hurt? I'll buy you some ointment."

"No! It's nothing. It's just red. It doesn't hurt. There are three more buckets. Let's wait. If no one comes, we may have to change places."

(My mother and I went to a market once. It was so scary. That time we were robbing corn. It seemed like it cost one dollar a piece. You had to pick it yourself. Then a large group of ladies rushed up, wah, kah, kah, their fighting power was amazing! I directly I was squeezed out from the inside, but my mother’s fighting ability is amazing, hahahaha)
