Xuan Muzhi made a lot of soy milk today, twice as much as yesterday.

Some of them ate the soft cakes for breakfast, and Xuan Muzhi kept the other half for making tofu.

Unexpectedly, just after breakfast, the eldest brother from the same village who helped the Xuan family brothers look at the barley rice fields came to the door, "Xuan family brother, the barley rice is harvesting today, when are you brothers going?"

One of Xuan Mu slapped his head, he has been too busy recently, and has long forgotten about the barley and rice fields, "We will go right away!"

The eldest brother from the same village greeted him and left. Xuan Muzhi wanted to go, but the big pot of soy milk was waiting for him to make tofu.

"Mo Zhi, let me go." Uncle Wu put down the tools in his hand, and brushed off the sawdust on his body, "You can grind tofu at home."

"This……"

"I'm not the boss, and I'm better than you at doing the farm work, don't worry." Uncle Wu waved his hand and found farm tools in the yard.

"I'll go too." Su An got up and said.

"Su An, can you do farm work?" Uncle Wu and Xuan Muzhi asked in unison. The other party's appearance and temperament really didn't seem to be able to do farm work.

"What's the problem?" Su An said lightly.

"All right, I'll take him with me." Uncle Wu laughed loudly, "Muzhi, cook us more meals for lunch."

"Don't worry, I will cook something good."

After seeing Uncle Wu and Su An off, Xuan Muzhi began to study tofu, mainly the amount of brine, and finally determined a suitable ratio after several failures, and made tender tofu.

"Brother, is this tofu?"

"This kind is called bean curd." Xuan Muzhi filled a bowl for Xuan Xuan, poured a spoonful of honey water, and sprinkled some dried fruits. "Try it?"

In fact, Xuan Muzhi's snacks are usually salty, that is tofu nao.But it's too late to make a marinade at this time, and he doesn't have any yellow fungus, so it's more convenient to make it sweet.

Xuanxuan took a sip, and his little face lit up. Children prefer sweet food.

Xuan Muzhi looked back, and with a smile put the solidified bean curd into the wooden frame that had been prepared, and a piece of washed gauze had already been laid inside.

In fact, it is not gauze, it is just a kind of loosely woven fabric. Because the weaving is not good, no one is willing to buy it.Xuan Muzhi happened to meet yesterday when he was taking Su An to make clothes, and he bought the whole one without spending much money.

After all the tofu flowers were put in, they were wrapped with gauze, and a clean bluestone slab was pressed on it, which was the leftover piece that Uncle Wu brought back to make a stone mill.

After Xuan Muzhi finished all these tasks, Xuanxuan finished his bowl of bean curd no matter how reluctant he was.

"Is it delicious?"

"It's delicious, it's so delicious, brother, I've never eaten such a delicious thing."

Xuan Muzhi had a flash of inspiration, this tofu flower should also be in line with the preferences of the young master of the Xi family, right?But it can't be too simple, it should be more distinctive.

The rose sauce has been marinated for three or four days, and once the rose sauce is successful, I will bring the bean curd over there, at least for silver coins, and the money cannot be lost in vain.

Xuan Muzhi thought for a while, "Xuan Xuan, stay at home and watch the house, I'll go to the market to buy something."

"understood."

Ah Fu came out from nowhere, and followed Xuan Muzhi.Xuan Muzhi was curious that he hadn't seen Ah Fu much in the past two days, but Ah Fu shook his head, saying that Su An put too much pressure on him and looked at him strangely.

Xuan Muzhi didn't take it seriously, and it was understandable to see his strange eyes, after all, no cats came to the North District.

I bought a piece of meat yesterday, which can be used to make tofu, but there are no other dishes. Xuan Muzhi plans to buy some June persimmons, ground eggs, etc. Vegetarian dishes are of course not enough.Two vegetarian dishes and two meat dishes are definitely rich.

Cutting rice is physical work, and Xuan Muzhi knows how hard it is even though he has never done it himself.

I bought June persimmons and ground eggs, bought a large piece of pork belly, and bought three expensive delicious fruits, one for each of Uncle Wu, Su An, and Xuan Xuan.

After this lap, another three silver coins were gone, Xuan Muzhi sighed, he had to make money as soon as possible, otherwise he would just sit back and eat nothing.

Xuan Muzhi didn't press the tofu too tightly. Although it loses too much water, it is firm, but the taste is slightly harder. He prefers to eat tender tofu.However, marinated tofu is harder than gypsum tofu, so it is very suitable for making homemade tofu.

Blanch it in boiling water to remove the bittern taste. After drying, slice it and fry it in a large pot until golden on both sides. Stir-fry the meat slices, sauté the onion and ginger until fragrant, and simmer for a while on a low heat. You can barely make a homemade tofu without soy sauce.Fortunately, the dish itself has a little color, so it won't be too dull.

There was a lot of steamed rice at noon, so Xuan Muzhi put several dishes into small wide-mouth jars, filled them with rice, took chopsticks and fruits, and went straight to the barley rice field.

Xuanxuan was left at home, and a small portion of the food was left for him to eat by himself.

Cutting rice is definitely a physical labor. Uncle Wu and Su An were both so tired that they couldn't straighten their backs after a whole morning's work. Unfortunately, they worked slower than the people in the nearby fields.

Uncle Wu and Su An looked at each other with dark faces, but didn't say anything.

So embarrassing.

The two of them did not do as much as one person.

Before coming here, I even bragged with Xuan Muzhi for a long time, saying that the two of them must be faster than others, but in the end...

However, both of them secretly made up their minds, they basically learned almost the same in the morning, and they must come back in the afternoon!

Everyone was working in the fields, and there were family members who came to deliver meals. Xuan Muzhi met several along the way.But most of them are a basket with a few steamed buns or cakes, a plate of pickles and a can of clear porridge.

Only when he came to Xuan Muzhi, he had a basket on his back, a basket in his hand, and a smell of meat all over his body.

When Xuan Muzhi arrived at the field, those two were still working hard.Xuan Muzhi really felt sorry for the two of them, it was originally his job, but now someone else has to suffer for him.

"Uncle Wu, Su An, it's time to eat!"

Xuan Muzhi's voice made Uncle Wu and Su An stiff. They wanted to do more, but they didn't expect Xuan Muzhi to come here?

"Uncle Wu, Su An, are you tired?" Xuan Muzhi's eyes were full of impatience.There are no harvesters in this place, it is all harvested by hand, and you have to be careful not to drop the ears of wheat, which is really hard work.

"Why did you come so early?" Uncle Wu sighed, picked up his water jug ​​and took a gulp.

"I'm still early?" Xuan Mu was taken aback, then found a few big tree leaves to lay on the ground, and put the back basket and bamboo basket on the ground. "Are you all hungry?"

Su An didn't say a word, drinking water silently.Seeing Xuan Muzhi open several jars containing vegetables, he walked over very consciously.

Xuan Muzhi took a wet towel and asked them to wipe their hands clean, and handed over the rice after filling it.

The four dishes of two meat and two vegetables are all appetizers. Among them, there are a few dried chilies in the tofu, which is a bit spicy and goes well with rice.

Uncle Wu and Su An were starving from physical labor all morning. They didn't feel it at work just now, but now they noticed it when they started eating.

"Mozhi, why don't you eat?"

"I'm not in a hurry, I'll go back to eat later." Xuan Muzhi shook his head.

"Let's eat together." Su An stopped eating and looked at Xuan Muzhi and said.

"I didn't bring my own bowls and chopsticks, you can eat, I'm not hungry yet." Xuan Muzhi whispered, "Is the food delicious?"

"Delicious!" Su An said two words with certainty.

"It's delicious, Mozhi. This is the tofu you mentioned, right? It tastes really good. It's unexpected that such a rough thing can make such a soft food. And it tastes so fragrant." Uncle Wu especially loves tofu, After the tofu is fried, it is stewed for a while. It is very tasty, and with meat, it is definitely a good dish, otherwise it would not be popular for more than 1000 years.Really tasty and affordable.

Whether it is meat dishes or vegetarian dishes, the taste is very fragrant.It was already noon, and most people stopped their work and sat by the field for lunch.

Compared with those people who only served porridge with steamed buns and pickles, or one or two dishes that were a little better, their side was really too rich.

Not to mention eating, just smelling the aroma, people who are close can't eat the food in their hands.At the same time, I couldn't help staring at the mother-in-law or children who brought me the food, looking at the food they sent and then looking at my own, is this edible?

"That's Brother Xuan over there, right? Their food is really delicious!" One of the men shrugged his nose and couldn't help but speak.

"It's really delicious, but... didn't you hear that he is poor? How can he afford such a good meal. I smell meat, and there are more than one." The woman next to him wondered.

"There are more than one kind. I stretched my neck to take a look just now. There are four or five dishes!" Another man said.
