The unlucky guy was reborn as a lucky girl from a farm
Chapter 38 Tofu Recipe
But with the previous experience, I knew that my father was a soft-hearted man. As long as my aunt cried poor and said she couldn't eat, he would most likely lend the money to her. If she did it once, she would do it again.
Now is different from last time. Last time the family had not been divided yet. This time after the division, if my aunt believes that the family is rich, then it is a bottomless pit and we must eliminate it from the root. If she wants to act, then I will accompany her.
After lunch, Meiyu felt a little tired. She looked at the dark kang and the dark quilt and had no desire to sleep at all.
Ni'er and Niu Li picked up all the bowls. Meiyu didn't help at all and just sat on the kang, acting like a guest at this time.
Lao San and Yan Zi were washing dishes in the kitchen, and Mei Yu saw a corner of clothing material sticking out from under the quilt.
Meiyu, who had new clothes every Chinese New Year since she was a child, was incomparable to her brothers. Although her family was poor, she had never lacked food and clothing.
I have always been quite knowledgeable about fabrics. At first glance, I knew that it was not cheap. I had the money to buy such material, but I didn't know how to buy a new quilt. I wanted to pull out that corner to take a closer look, but I felt a little sick under such a quilt.
The third brother and Yan Zi finished washing the dishes and returned to the house. Mei Yu pointed over there and said, "Sister-in-law, those are new clothes made for my brother, right? I also want to make clothes for my wife, but my craftsmanship is really not that good. Can you teach me, sister-in-law?"
Yan Zi had no choice but to take out the semi-finished product.
Meiyu took it and pretended to look at it carefully. "Sister-in-law, your craftsmanship is really good. The stitches are fine and even. I think it's better than the tailor's work in the tailor shop. I wonder how comfortable it will be if my brother wears it."
Although Yan Zi knew that she had good skills, she had never been to a tailor shop. She had been making her own clothes since she was a child. She was not as good as Mei Yu in this aspect, so she still blushed when she heard Mei Yu say that.
Meiyu took another look at the quilt with cotton wool exposed, feeling extremely disgusted. How could such good material be put together with the garbage? She couldn't help but said, "I think this material must cost five or six cents per foot. With this money, why don't you buy a better quilt?"
Everyone has been very busy recently and hasn't thought about these things. Ni'er had thought that now that the weather is getting warmer, she could wait a little longer, but after hearing what she said, she couldn't bear it anymore and had to put buying furniture and quilts for the house on the agenda.
Although the house is old and shabby now, it will take a long time for the new house to be built. You can use it first if you buy it now. With the new furniture, you don’t have to worry about having no place to put it. I guess it can also speed up the progress of the new house by then.
But if I let my father go alone, I would not feel at ease and I am afraid that he might not make the right choice. It would be better to find a trustworthy carpenter to make a set of tables and chairs.
Quilts and other things are available for sale in town. My mother is already tired from making clothes herself, and I can’t add to her workload. I just don’t know when I can go to town again.
Although many of the things my aunt said were unpleasant to hear, after all, she was older than me and had more experience than me, so sometimes one or two of her words did make sense.
Besides, my family will not remain poor forever. Buying things is a skill that needs to be learned. It is not enough to just learn from books.
The third brother watched his aunt and sister-in-law chatting animatedly, and he couldn't get a word in, "I'll go to the fields and take a look, you guys chat~"
Meiyu was a little anxious when she saw her brother going to the fields, wondering when the tofu would be made.
Ni'er, who was originally going to pick wild vegetables, was afraid that her mother would accidentally let slip the secret of how to make tofu, so she decided to stay at home.
I'm not worried about Niu Li about this kind of thing. That kid is very tight-lipped, and I've also told him about it.
Seeing that his sister had no intention of going out today, Niu Li understood her thoughts, "Sister, how about I go pick wild vegetables today? The chickens have been fed, you can also take a rest."
Seeing that Niu Li was so sensible, Nier touched his head and said, "Don't go too far~"
He whispered a few more words in my ear.
Niu Li nodded, put on his backpack and went out.
Hearing the two people in the room talking about sewing clothes, Nier went in and learned seriously. In case her aunt led the topic off track, she had to quickly bring it back.
As expected.
Niu Meiyu was a little tired. If she continued to discuss sewing clothes like this, it would take until dark to finish. She couldn't waste any more time. She yawned and changed the subject directly, "Sister-in-law, look at your family now. They are much better off than before. There are chickens in the yard, and there are those adobes. Are you going to build a new house?"
Yan Zi also looked outside the house and sighed, "Yes, I never thought that we would separate and live the life we have now."
Meiyu's face was full of envy, "I wish I could be like this, my mother-in-law is the one running the household."
Yan Zi could understand Mei Yu's feelings very well. It was indeed miserable for her to live under the control of her mother-in-law.
But now Yan Zi is only the mistress in name only, the actual mistress is a half-grown girl.
Of course, he didn't mind it, but he felt a little sorry for his daughter, who had to shoulder the responsibility of supporting the family at such a young age. He sighed and didn't say anything.
Meiyu had no choice but to continue playing pitiful. "If I could also make some money, maybe my mother-in-law would look at me with a higher regard, and even put me above my sister-in-law."
The more she talked, the more she felt that she had a miserable life. She was so angry about her sister-in-law that her teeth itched. "You don't know, my sister-in-law doesn't work every day. I do all the housework. She only knows how to dress herself up every day. My mother-in-law loves my brother-in-law, so she also loves her. If I make any mistakes, I will be scolded."
"Sister-in-law, your family makes tofu, why don't you teach me~"
Yan Zi looked embarrassed, but when she heard that her younger aunt was having such a miserable life, she thought of the third brother and herself, and she really couldn't bear it.
"That tofu recipe was thought up by Ni'er. I can't make the decision. Why don't you ask her?"
Meiyu couldn't believe her ears. The water pipe was the idea of this little girl, and so was the tofu. How could everyone in this family lie? It was too outrageous.
"Sister-in-law, if you don't want to tell me, you don't have to lie to me with such an excuse."
Nier knew something like this would happen, and it was wise of her to stay at home instead of going out.
"Aunt, I did come up with the tofu recipe. You don't have to believe it."
Meiyu had no choice but to put aside her pride for the time being and smiled at the little girl who never cared, "Ni'er, can you tell your aunt the tofu recipe?"
Nier thought that they had finally come to the point. If she didn't talk about this topic again, she would really fall asleep.
"Aunt, this is our family's recipe for making money. If I tell you, how else can we make money~"
Meiyu said shamelessly, "We are all family, there is nothing we can't tell each other."
