59 years after its opening, people are still in Nanluoguxiang.

Chapter 307 Grinding Tofu

"Big Pot, will my little brother steal my candy?" Chen Li was lying on the bed, counting her White Rabbit milk candies again, and suddenly raised her head to ask.

Chen Feng looked over and saw that the little foodie had a worried look in his eyes.

"What will you do if he robs you?"

"I'll spank him!" Chen Li said bluntly, "Just like you spank the second pot with a stick."

"Then what are you afraid of?" Chen Feng asked puzzledly.

"Hehe." The little foodie was no longer afraid.

Huo Zhilan talked to the old lady for something, and then the old lady asked the old man for some tiger bone and deer blood wine. Then Huo Zhilan left Hu Bayi at Chen's house and went to find Old Hu herself.

It can be seen that Aunt Huo is also envious.

Chen Feng made an excuse to go out for a walk, and when he came back, he had dozens of kilograms of soybeans in his hands.

"Grandma, my mother can also eat more tofu."

Tofu is rich in nutrients such as plant protein, calcium, iron, magnesium and vitamin B, which can help pregnant women maintain a healthy weight and provide the nutrients needed by the fetus. Rich in calcium, it helps maintain bone health during pregnancy and is also beneficial to the bone development of the fetus.

He knew this because one of his classmates killed someone when he was in his senior year of high school.

Because of their good relationship, a few guys who were gloating bought thirteen pieces of tofu and went to visit them.

"Okay, okay, soak the soybeans in water."

Soak the soybeans in water for 4-5 hours to expand, then grind the beans into soy milk, filter out the dregs, cook the soy milk, and add some sugar to make the tofu pudding we drink everyday.

Put the baked gypsum in, wrap it with cloth, and squeeze the lid into shape, and you have the tofu.

The process is very simple, the key is to control the temperature, especially the temperature of heating the gypsum.

The Chen family has their own stone mill, which is placed in the middle of the warehouse and has not been used for several years.

The old lady carried a bucket of water and cleaned the millstone carefully.

After counting all her belongings, Chen Li came to Chen Feng with a bottle of soda and a White Rabbit candy in her mouth.

"Big pot, what is grandma doing?"

Chen Feng helped his sister unscrew the bottle cap, and did not throw the bottle cap away, but gave it to Chen Li to keep.

These bottle caps were collected and hammered flat to form a round piece of iron.

Chen Hao and Chen Li like to collect these small pieces of iron.

Chen Feng didn't understand the fun of it, but that didn't stop him from helping them be happier.

"Oh, we're going to make tofu for lunch."

"Big pot, I want to drink." Chen Li stayed at home with Chen Hao. Now that she had money, she naturally went out to get food often.

Although tofu pudding is expensive and rare, the state-owned restaurant still got some soybeans during the Chinese New Year.

Chen Hao and Chen Li, who had made a small fortune, fell in love with this stuff after drinking it a few times.

"Okay, I'll let you eat as much as you want at noon."

Chen Feng ultimately failed to realize this statement.

The sky is big, the earth is big, but nothing is bigger than the fetus!

At noon, the old lady cooked an egg and mutton soup herself.

Pregnant women can eat a moderate amount of mutton, but not too much. A bowl of egg and mutton soup is more than enough.

Lamb is highly nutritious and contains rich protein, fat, vitamins, etc., but it is also a hot food. Eating too much can affect the health of the fetus, so you should not eat too much.

The best meat for pregnant women is lean pork.

Seeing that the whole family treated her mother as the emperor, Chen Li was extremely envious.

She touched her belly.

"Chen Hao, you come and pull the mill."

After soaking for more than three hours, the soybeans were already very soft and the old lady felt that they were almost ready to be ground.

It won’t soften if soaked, and my hands get tired when I grind it.

"I'll come too." Hu Bayi also came to help.

Chen Li thought it was fun, but she was not tall enough to reach it, so she could only watch her second brother "play" with great envy.

The old lady kept throwing soybeans into the indentation and pouring water.

As Chen Hao and Hu Bayi pushed, white bean juice slowly flowed into the porcelain basin under the millstone.

"By the way, Bayi, hasn't Wang Kaixuan come back yet?" Chen Feng threw a candy to each of them to replenish their own calorie loss.

"No, I guess I'll be back for school."

After the Chinese New Year, Wang Kaixuan followed Grandpa Wang to Xinjiang. It was said that a benefactor who had saved Grandpa Wang's life in the past was dying, so he took his grandson to visit him, just to promise to take care of the benefactor's descendants in the future.

Nowadays, it is not easy to go to Xinjiang, and it takes a long time to go back and forth.

Mr. Wang had fought bandits in Xinjiang and obtained the jade pendant that opened the mechanism of the Jingjue Ancient City from the Guidong Clan.

It is usually hung around Fatty Wang's neck as a talisman, which is quite a bit of black humor.

The old man noticed something but didn't point it out.

"Oh, brother, I'm so tired. I can't do it anymore." Chen Hao was full of energy at the beginning, but after pushing for a few minutes, he felt his hands were very tired.

Chen Feng smiled, walked forward and pushed the wooden handle with one hand.

"Brother, you are so awesome. How can I be as strong as you, as, as, as what's the name, Bayi!" Chen Hao thought for a long time but still couldn't think of the words.

"Oh, dragon." Hu Bayi considerately changed the word.

"Yes, as strong as a dragon, brother, you are stronger than a dragon." Chen Hao shamelessly flattered his brother.

"Eat more and you will gain strength." Chen Feng said with a smile: "Of course, you also need to practice more. When you have nothing to do in the future, come to the warehouse and practice grinding with the stone mill."

Chen Hao's expression froze.

It’s bad, you’re the one who’s ruined yourself!

"Big pot, I want to push it too!"

Chen Li followed behind Chen Feng, shouting non-stop.

In desperation, Chen Feng had to pick up the little sister with his other hand and let her push with him.

"whee."

Looking at the increasing amount of soy milk in the basin, the little girl felt full of a sense of accomplishment.

"Grandma, why don't you speed up a bit? There are so many beans, and going too slow will only consume more energy."

"it is good!"

The old lady increased the amount of beans she put in, and Chen Feng didn't feel like he was consuming too much energy. He walked very fast, and even several donkeys combined were not as fast as him.

It was Chen Hao who started adding water.

Hu Bayi kept coming over with buckets of water to replace the empty buckets.

Grind all the soybeans into pulp, remove the dregs, and then boil them.

There is not enough space in one pot, so two coal stoves are running at the same time.

When the time was right, the old lady put the prepared plaster powder slurry in.

The amount of gypsum powder used in making tofu pudding is usually relatively small, and it is easily absorbed and metabolized by the human body. It will not cause any harm to the human body, but can instead supplement a small amount of calcium for the human body.

Chen Hao and Hu Bayi each held a shovel to stir.

"Come on, come on!" Chen Li shouted from the side.

When it was almost cooked, Chen Feng, Chen Hao and Hu Bayi held the four corners of the cloth, and the old lady and Zhou Qing poured the tofu pudding in the pot into the clean cloth.

Chen Li watched them pour the tofu pudding from the pot into the pot one spoonful at a time. It was as if she saw her own tofu pudding flying out of her mouth bowl by bowl.

"Grandma, leave a few bowls for them to drink." Chen Feng said quickly.

"This bowl can be made into a dish!" the old lady muttered, but she still showed mercy and left five bowls for the little free workers.
