Butcher Zhang of Wu Tofu Family

The beginning of the unitary period is also the time when the vegetable market evening market starts. Although it is said so, it is actually just putting out the unsold things in the morning.

Just like Wu's Tofu Shop, although it is open all day long, when it comes to the evening market, the windows will be opened again, and the tofu will be packed and put out like in the morning.

After all, tofu cannot be left overnight.It’s okay if the weather is cold, but as it is summer now, even if the leftover tofu is placed in cold well water, the taste will change the next morning.

It’s okay if there’s not much left, but if there’s too much left, you can’t finish it if you eat it yourself.

If it is given to the neighbors, it is fine once or twice, but if there are too many, then it is not so good.

After all, some people always take it for granted.

Ah Ma often said to Wu Zheng since she was a child: "Being a human being should remember that when others give you things, that is called affection. Naturally, when others remember you, you should be grateful. You can't be like that after others give you things, you still don't give them back." Take it for granted, it just makes people feel disgusted.”

Although Wu Zheng has a delicate mind since he was a child, and he knows how to observe words and emotions, he is not very arrogant compared to other little brothers.

But I still feel that the speed that Ah Mo said is too difficult to grasp.

I remember that because my father was so kind, he often gave unsalable tofu to some people and helped neighbors.Until one day, the business was so good that the tofu was sold out, and the family that my father used to give tofu came to see that my father didn't send him any tofu.

Dad said in a good voice that the tofu was gone, and the man still went around gossiping outside, saying that Dad was stingy inside and out.I don't even remember how much tofu my family ate from my father.

After hearing this, Ah Ma also hated iron and steel and said that Dad deserved it. I have already said that even if some people show a good face, they will not see it and think it should be. When they don’t get the benefits, I won't remember your kindness either, I'll just be a white-eyed wolf.

Dad smiled wryly when he heard Ah Mo's words.

And the family didn't know how to restrain themselves, seeing that their father hadn't delivered tofu after that day, they gossiped even more.

This made Ah Mo very angry, and took the account book and went to the family.

Wu Zheng still remembered how domineering Ah So was at that time.

Pushing open the door of the Li family, everyone knew each other in this alley in the west of the city. Looking at the situation of the Wu family, it was clear that the Li family could not escape this time.In fact, everyone knows that the husband and husband of the Wu family are very good people, but there are always some people who don't like other people's good people.

"I said Li's family, I've been working at home these days and haven't been able to accompany my husband to run the store properly. As soon as I came out, I heard everywhere that my husband owes your family? My husband keeps accounts Ben's habit, how about our two families to have a good relationship?" Wu's grandma said with a sneer: "I heard that my husband owes your tofu?"

Then the husband of the Li family will also bully some honest people. I saw that the husband of the Wu family is honest and kind before, and I have never heard of any particularly sturdy husband in his family, so those who have evil intentions want to blackmail them.But I didn't expect that this husband came out at this time to be so tough, completely different from what I inquired about.

Before the husband of the Li family had time to say anything, the Wu family looked at the books and read: "There are really many accounts with your Li family on the books. On the fifth day of the third month of spring, I bought three catties of tofu on credit, and on the eighth day of April On April [-]th, I bought two catties of tofu on credit. From May [-]th to May [-]th, there was a total of eight catties of tofu left. There are few tofu, but seeing your family’s nearly eighty-year-old ancestor, I sent four catties of tofu to your family, and asked about the money for tofu in March and April, but to no avail. These are the accounts of recent times. Only now At the end of May, it didn’t say on the books that your Li family gave my husband’s silver and said he wanted tofu? But my husband couldn’t deliver it to your Li family, right?”

The Li family's husband did not expect that this family would record all these on the books, and what the Wu family's grandma said were all facts and there was no way to refute them.

"I don't hate my husband's kindness, but I don't like other people's kindness towards my husband." After Wu's grandma finished speaking, she looked around at the group of people who were watching the excitement at the door.

Among that group of people, there were quite a few who had been favored by the husband of the Wu family, but there were not many who spoke well of him in the past few days. Now, after hearing the words of the Wu family, they all lowered their heads, feeling a little guilty. Look at the Wu family.

But some still don't care about watching the fun.

The Li family's husband's face turned red and then pale, his mouth trembled a few times, but he didn't speak.

He didn't dare to speak.

Seeing him like that, the Wu family's grandmother sneered and said: "Speaking of which, I would like to ask Mrs. Li to settle my family's account when he has time. My family is just a small business, and I can't do this credit on the left and credit on the right. one."

Then Ah Mo took his hand and went home.

In fact, Ah Mo's health has not been particularly good, and she can't do any heavy work, so she can only do some purse embroidery in exchange for money.

So it's not too familiar with the neighborhood.

Except for a family.

Wu's tofu shop is already in a very remote place in the west of the city, and even more remote than Wu's is Zhang Butcher's.

Butcher Zhang's family has two brothers. The younger brother raises pigs in the outskirts of the city, while the older brother sells pork in the west of the city.

Butcher Zhang's family and Wu Doufu's family grew up together, which also makes the husband of Zhang Butcher's family and the husband of Wu Tofu's family have a particularly close relationship.

In fact, Zhang Murui should have been younger than Wu Zheng by a month, but I didn't expect that just after the Wu family's grandma gave birth to Wu Zheng, Zhang's husband also immediately gave birth to Zhang Murui with a stomachache. One was born in the morning. , one is in the evening.

One is a little brother and the other is a man.

I thought too much, but accidentally forgot that I was still setting up a stall.

"Hey, I said, Brother Wu, what are you thinking? I said I want a piece of tofu." A husband said.

When Wu Zheng heard it, he immediately came back to his senses: "Ah, a piece of water-ground tofu, right? Wait a minute."

Wu Zheng opened the knife wrapped in white cloth, poured a little water on it, and cut a piece of tofu for the husband: "Here, here is the tofu you want, eight pennies, thank you."

The husband counted the copper coins and gave them to Wu Zheng, saying, "Although your tofu is delicious, it's just too expensive."

Wu Zheng smiled, but didn't take the remark.

This piece of tofu is one catty, and a catty of tofu costs eight cents, which is not very expensive anymore.Wu Zheng said in his heart, but knew he couldn't say it out loud.If you say it, these husbands can tell you that you will be dizzy and give them a discount.This is not good.

Some people came one after another, and the remaining plate of tofu was almost sold out soon.

The busy time always flies very fast, and it is time to close the stall in a blink of an eye. The sale is good today, and there is only a small piece of tofu left. Wu Zheng thought about what materials are left at home. , what can be used to match this tofu, and then Wu Zheng suddenly remembered the dim sum egg and gold shredded shortbread that Murray sent at noon, couldn't help drooling, and then clapped his hands and decided: "Just make minced meat Tofu, with the leftover white rice at noon, and two small green vegetables. It is not wasteful and delicious."

Thinking like this, Wu Zheng was cleaning the shop slowly, but when he thought of the fragrant rice and minced meat tofu, he couldn't help speeding up by [-]%.

Although this tofu has grown from a snack to a big one, Ah Mo's craftsmanship is very changeable, and it will never be particularly greasy.

And the minced meat tofu is Ah Mo's specialty, especially the soy sauce used when cooking the tofu is marinated by Ah Mo himself, the taste is really extraordinary.

Although Wu Zheng also learned the secret recipe of making soybean paste from Ah Mo for a long time, the soybean paste he made was not as good as Ah Mo.

After closing the shop, doors and windows, Wu Zheng walked to the backyard, where the kitchen is located.

While it was still dark, Wu Zheng was going to make dinner early. Later in the day, he would change the water for the soaked beans, and then make a batch of thick tofu with salt. In the afternoon, the little brother explained that tomorrow Twenty catties of thick tofu is needed. The pressing of the thick tofu is very important. If the brine and time are not enough, the taste of the thick tofu will be very bad.

Wu Zheng didn't want the reputation of Wu's tofu shop to be ruined in his hands. He learned to make tofu since he was a child, and now he has made tofu by himself more than once.

The kitchen is a large stove with a small stove.

Wu Zheng prepared to boil water in the large stove, and then prepared to start cooking in the small stove.

First get everything ready.

When it comes to tofu with minced meat, the heat is very important. After the heat is over, the taste of the minced meat will be old and boring, but if the heat is not good enough, the tofu produced will be bland and tasteless.

However, Wu Zheng has his own secret recipe.

Because the tofu used was the Wu family's own water-milled tofu, which was very tender, so Wu Zheng just blanched the tofu a little bit, and then put it in again.

Then put a small piece of pork that has been cut into minced meat, put it in the pan, and put it aside when it is less than half-cooked.

Then, while the oil in the pan was still hot, he put the tofu into it and fried it carefully. He likes tofu with a little burnt edge.

Then put the tofu in, pour in minced ginger, minced meat and a spoonful of miso. When the meat is almost mature, pour in the tofu, add a little water and a little salt, and stir fry for a while.

Sprinkle a little chopped green onion before serving.

The leftover rice and vegetables at noon were kept warm on the big stove.

Wu Zheng brought out the dishes and put them on the stone table in the backyard, but he felt doubly lonely. Originally, the whole family was here, but now Wu Zheng was the only one left, even though he knew that his father and Ah Mo were in the outskirts of the city , but still couldn't help feeling uneasy.

Wait until tomorrow afternoon, go see Daddy and Ah Mo!The snacks that I promised to bring to Ah Mo have not yet been delivered.

The author has something to say:

Thank you Miao Miao for your modification and catching bugs!

nah...

There is a small setting in this chapter. If you are a married brother, someone with a child will call him so-and-so. God horse doesn't matter.

In fact, I really like eating minced meat tofu!The bean paste sauce with minced meat tofu is simply admirable!If you put a little salt first when frying the tofu, the tofu will be easier to taste!

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!

Going back to school today...if it's earlier...then there should be another update, if it's too late...then there's no more OTZ
