Whose farming family has the male protagonist giving three piglets as a gift at the beginning?

Chapter 461 Making Tofu

"Yes?" Su A'nai murmured.

"Yes, yes." Su Ziling nodded heavily.

"More than two months?"

"Correct!"

Mr. Su also came to his senses, "That's a good thing. How is your third aunt? Is she okay? Have you seen the doctor?"

Su A'nai nodded, grinning from ear to ear, "Yes, yes, yes, it's convenient to see a doctor in the county. Have you ever seen a doctor? Is the work in the restaurant heavy? She has to be careful in this situation. There must be more rest."

"Grandma, don't worry. My grandma has already taken my third aunt to see the doctor. The doctor said it's okay, just pay more attention to rest, and he also gave me two pairs of anti-fetal pills. There has been a lot of traffic at the restaurant these two days. , but I have asked Qingjiu to take over her job. Then the third aunt will be responsible for helping put in the seasonings. She won’t be tired. "

Hearing what she said, Su A'nai finally felt relieved. She said: "Axiu will be nine years old soon. Your third aunt's stomach has been quiet. I guess I thought they didn't want it anymore. The conditions were not good before." Well, I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to support him after he was born, but his family conditions are better now.”

"Well, let's eat. If you don't eat, it will get cold." Mr. Su gave her a chopstick of meat. "The Chinese New Year will be in two days, and you will be able to see them when they come back."

"Yes, don't worry, grandma. I'll let my third aunt stay in the county for the past two days. They'll be back after the Chinese New Year. Then I'll look for someone to take over the kitchen, and then I'll let my third aunt Take good care of your baby at home.”

Probably because he was really hungry, he actually ate all the dishes on the table full of food. Su's father scooped a bowl of rice into the last bowl of chili peppers and cleared the dishes immediately.

After the meal, Su's mother started to clear the table and wash the dishes, while Su Ziling took out the salt and stir-fried it. After the salt was hot, let it cool, then added a handful of pepper powder and stirred evenly.

The room was very dark, there was no oil lamp, and the only light was the fire in the fire pit.

Seeing Father Su and the others touching the black bacon, Su Ziling went to light the pine oil lamp.

The pine oil in this pine oil lamp was made by Su Ziling. When the lamp was turned on, the room became much brighter. Father Su raised his head and glanced, "You don't need to light the lamp. I can see. It's just two pieces of meat. I'll have a big fight with your grandpa." It was marinated in just a few seconds."

"It's okay. This is a pine oil lamp. After lighting it, we can just pick up the rosin. Dad, does it make it a little brighter?"

"It's much brighter!" Su's father lowered his head and coated the pork legs with white wine.

Mr. Su sniffed and said, "This liquor is good and tastes good. Just by smelling it, you can tell it is a good liquor."

"I'll give you two pounds for grandpa during the Chinese New Year. Then I'll make an appointment with my third uncle and the others to have a nice drink," Su Ziling said.

I didn't think of drinking white wine today. She bought this wine some time ago, specifically for pickles.

"What kind of white wine should I drink? I can just drink rice wine. Rice wine is delicious too!"

As Mr. Su said, he scooped out the white wine with his hands, smeared it all over the pork, spread pepper salt evenly on the pork, and kept rubbing the ham with salt.

It takes about as long as a cup of tea to knead it. After rubbing the corners of the kaka with salt, put the meat on the table and press it with two stones to squeeze out the water and blood.

Put it in the house and press it for three or four days, then take it out and smoke it with fragrant wood to dry it.

After the meat was pressed, Su's father also took a basin and put it under the table. The blood dripping out will be full of salt. It would be a pity to pour it out, but it can be used to feed the pigs. Feeding a little bit at each meal will not only make them fatter, but also Nothing goes to waste.

It was too late to deal with the pig blood, pork for sausages, and pig head and internal organs next to it, so Su Ziling cut two banana leaves and covered them.

Fortunately, it's cold now. If it were summer, I'm afraid the pork would smell bad if I woke up this night.

Mr. Su and the others were marinating the meat, while Su Ziling and Mother Su went to get the beans.

"Grandma, do you still have a lot of beans at home? Let's soak some, make tofu tomorrow, and stuff the tofu with blood sausage tomorrow afternoon."

No one knows where to put things at home better than Su A'nai. She cleans and packs things every day, and she remembers exactly what is in the house, so Su Ziling likes to call A'nai A'nai when she is looking for things.

"Yes, go and look for it in the back. I think it weighs twenty or thirty pounds."

The room was dark, so Su Zizhong lit a lamp and said, "I'll get it. The beans have to be broken, right? You go and clean the stone mill first."

Su Ziling shook her head, "No need to break it, just soak it and grind it tomorrow."

"Okay, then you should quickly wash up and go to bed. I'll soak the beans."

Su Zizhong directly carried a bucket into the house to get the beans.

Before going out, Su A'nai reminded her uneasily that there was meat in the house, and those who came in and out from now on had to close the door, otherwise if someone's wild cat let in, the meat would be chewed to pieces.

Early the next morning, Su Ziling got up and ground the beans at dawn. The tofu had to be made later, otherwise she would be busy making the tofu and blood sausage today.

Probably because they were thinking about today's important events, everyone in the family got up very early. Su's mother was busy preparing breakfast, while Su Zizhong packed his things and prepared to go out.

Su's father got up to help grind the beans, while Su A'nai took a kitchen knife and sat by the fire pit and slowly chopped meat, which would later be used to make tofu and blood sausage.

If you have a small mill at home, you don't have to go to the mill to squeeze in with others, but the grinding speed will be much slower.

Su's father was grinding the mill, and Su Ziling was responsible for adding beans to the side. It was easy to grind the small grinder.

In the winter morning, the mountain peaks were covered with fog, and the cold wind stung his face. Su's father sniffed, and the hand holding the grinding rod turned red from the cold.

He lowered his head and glanced at the three large buckets of beans. White mist spurted out as he spoke, "Zizhong, how many kilograms have you soaked? With such a big bucket, you won't be able to finish them all, right?"

Su Zizhong was loading his things. When he heard Su's father's words, he put down his things and walked over.

"I asked Grandma, and she said she should soak ten pounds. I weighed the ten pounds, and it looked a bit small, and the intestines of two pigs were there. I was worried that it wouldn't be enough, so I added another ten pounds."

Su's father nodded, "Twenty pounds, that's not bad, maybe it's just soaked hair, it looks too much."

After saying that, he sniffed again and murmured, "This weather is too cold. It doesn't seem to be this cold in previous years, right?"

"By the way, Xiaoqing, is twenty kilograms enough? I looked at those two intestines and they are a bit thick. Is twenty kilograms not enough? Do you want to soak some more?"

Su Ziling: "..."

It was obvious that Su's father really didn't understand.

"Ten kilograms of beans can make about forty kilograms of tofu. My eldest brother soaked twenty kilograms, which is almost eighty kilograms of tofu. Then I will add pig blood and pork. I guess it won't be that much. It's more than fifty kilograms. That’s about it.”

"Ah?" Su's father was stunned, "Does that mean you have done too much?"

Looking at the dumbfounded Su Zizhong, he comforted him: "It's okay if you have too much. You can eat it by yourself if you make too much. White tofu is also quite delicious."

Su Ziling added a spoonful of beans, "Don't worry, there won't be more. If you have more, the neighbors will give you a few pieces to try. Then we can catch a few bighead fish in the river. Then we can make fish tofu soup and mapo tofu."

"Or deep-fry some fried tofu and use it for cold salad, stir-fry pork belly, or make tofu stew. There are many ways to eat it, don't worry, there will be more."
