Pig Killer

Chapter 112

"Let me do it." Da Chong took the clean chopsticks and divided the bean curd cake into small pieces. Each of them took a piece and put it in their mouth.

"Hmm! Very good." Da Chong held the bowl with a piece of bean curd cake left in it, "Mother, try it."

Shen Hui'e picked up the chopsticks, put it in her mouth, looked at them with sparkling eyes and said, "It tastes really good, with a strong bean aroma."

"Mother, mother, can we mix the bean dregs with the pork paste and make meatballs with lard?" The raccoon asked her with his eyes like black grapes glowing green.

"You can try." Shen Hui'e looked at her with eyes like glass beads and said, "You can also mix it with tofu. If there are no conditions, create them. Let's try it." Looking at the still heavy rain, "When the weather clears up, I will go to the countryside to collect pigs."

&*&

As a result, the rain continued intermittently for three days, and Shen Hui'e waited for another two days before going to the countryside.

At this time, the loess roads in the countryside will not be covered with mud.

In the fields after the rain, all kinds of seedlings are full of vigor, with branches and leaves stretched out, dark green. It is obvious that there is enough fertilizer and they are growing well!

It had been a while since she came to collect the pigs, so this time Shen Hui'e directly collected two pigs and slaughtered them right away when she got home.

The neighbors, who had not eaten meat for several days, gathered in front of the meat stall early in the morning.

The meat hung out for sale was immediately sold out by people lining up to buy it all, and not even the offal or the pig's head was left for her.

Shen Hui'e secretly left five pounds of pork, closed the gate, looked at them with a smile and said, "Come on! Let's grind tofu."

This time I was well prepared and soaked the soybeans before going to the countryside to collect the pigs.

The first time is new, the second time is familiar. This time, all the tools were ready and the process went much more smoothly.

You won’t be in a hurry when doing something for the first time, forgetting either this or that.

"Do you want to eat tofu pudding or tofu?" Shen Hui'e looked at them gently with her bright eyes.

"Tofu pudding, I haven't had enough!" Li Nu shouted loudly, looking at her eagerly with his watery eyes.

"Okay! Listen to my daughter." Shen Hui'e looked at her with curved eyebrows and said, just stir-fry the diced meat and add some bean leaves and green onions.

"Wow..." said the big bug with a smile, "This color looks tempting."

"There's a wooden spoon this time, eat quickly." Shen Hui'e said to them with her pearly eyes.

Liu Ding's carpenter skills are impeccable. The wooden spoon is polished so smooth, as if it had been painted, without any burrs.

"Hey!"

"Mother, how are we going to treat grandma and uncle to a meal?" Li Nu said to his mother with wet eyes.

"The tofu will be ready soon. Let's send it to them first." Shen Hui'e looked at them with her dark and bright eyes and said, "Make the tofu pudding tomorrow, put it in a clay pot and send it to them."

"Yeah!" The cat slave nodded vigorously.

"Our house is too small to accommodate so many people at once. The key is that we don't have enough bowls and chopsticks." Shen Hui'e stretched out her hands and grabbed and teased, "This tofu pudding is too big to hold with my hands!"

"Ha ha……"

"Eat!" Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with her bright dark eyes.

“Woof woof…” Huang Er looked at her with his tongue hanging out.

"Don't look at me, you too." Shen Hui'e looked at it with a gentle gaze and said, "Eat."

After Shen Hui'e and the others had eaten and drunk their fill, they cut the tofu, put it in a clay basin, and then put it in a basket, and asked the children to carry it to deliver.

When the children came back, Huang's mother followed.

"Why are you here?" Shen Hui'e looked at her in surprise.

"Is this tofu really made of soybeans?" Huang's mother looked at her in disbelief with her eyes wide open, "This white and tender tofu..."

"Yes!" Shen Hui'e patted the cleaned millstone and said, "It was ground from it." She smiled and added, "We will do it again tomorrow and you can come and see it then."

"Okay! I'll come and see how it's done tomorrow." Huang's mother looked at her excitedly and said.

"It's still this time tomorrow. I have to kill the pig before I can grind tofu." Shen Hui'e looked at her with her bright eyes and said.

"I understand." Huang's mother said with a smile.

"You can't keep the tofu! It's going bad in hot weather. You can eat it by frying, stir-frying, cooking or deep-frying!" Shen Hui'e reminded her, "Don't be reluctant to eat it. As long as we have soybeans, we can eat it anytime we want."

"No! I'll stew it when I get home." Huang's mother said with a smile, "I'll be home soon, you go ahead!"

"I'll see you off." Shen Hui'e and the others sent Huang's mother out together.

"Why is grandma so excited?" Da Chong looked at his grandmother's receding back in confusion.

"Maybe they think this is a good business!" Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with her deep and penetrating eyes.

"Buy tofu." Da Chong tilted his head slightly and looked at her with his round eyes.

"Isn't this business a good one?" Shen Hui'e said to him with raised eyebrows.

"No, the ceiling business is going well. Do you have time? Grandma and her whole family are working together." Li Nu looked at her puzzledly and said, "No one is grinding tofu!"

"The ceiling is ready. It can last at least three to five years." Shen Hui'e looked at them with deep and penetrating eyes and said, "There are only so many houses. If you put up the ceilings for all of them, will you still have business?"

"You can go to another county, or become a county magistrate." Da Chong looked at her cleverly with his dark eyes.

"Boy, a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake." Shen Hui'e said to them with clear eyes.

"What do you mean?" Da Chong looked at her in confusion and asked.

"How can they let you come and steal their food?" Shen Hui'e looked at them with her deep and bottomless eyes and said, "They can see the ceiling at a glance. There are many local people who weave straw mats. The local ruffians can organize people to do it." She said darkly, "They can even exploit the farmers as much as possible."

"Don't understand?" Da Chong looked at her blankly and said.

"Let's put it this way!" Shen Hui'e looked towards the yard and said, "Let's go in and talk."

Shen Hui'e sat at the long table, looking at them sitting down and said, "If the grocery store sells straw mats for five copper coins, your grandfather would also give five copper coins to the farmers. The grocery store must have made some money, and the farmers also made a lot, right!"

"Yeah!" The big tiger nodded when he heard it.

"What about those unscrupulous businessmen? They suppress the price of straw mats for farmers! They even refuse to pay them!" Shen Hui'e said while looking at them with deep eyes.

"How can this be!" The tiger slapped the table and said unhappily.

"What kind of benevolence and righteousness are you talking about to these thugs?" Shen Hui'e said unhappily.

"No! It's okay if you don't do it!" Upon hearing this, Li Nu looked at her smartly with his eyes wide open.

"The reason why hooligans are called hooligans is that they have no bottom line. They come to harass farmers every day. Or, you don't want to do it, right? I will pull out the seedlings in your field." Shen Hui'e said to them with gloomy eyes.
