Chapter 61: Boiling Lard

The next morning, when Ningxia got up, the yard was already very lively.

"Ningxia, are you going to use these beans to grind soy milk?" Old Liao stood up holding the half-ground beans and looked at Ningxia.

"It's for grinding soy milk. Sister Xia Xia told me last night." Lin Yi stood aside and watched how Li Gang operated. If they did more work, Sister Xia Xia would have to do less work. That was great.

Ningxia let them make a fuss and took Sangsang to wash up.

Ningxia looked at the flower bed at the edge of the yard. It must be said that Lao Liao was really careful in his work. Yesterday, when he was asked to plant a pepper tree, he pulled out all the weeds in the entire flower garden at the same time.

There are only a few unknown trees in the flower garden now. It is very clean, and even the small peppercorns look much cuter.

"It's been a long time since I had this. It's delicious!" Old Liao took the big bowl, drank soy milk and ate corn cakes at the same time.

Ningxia steamed another pot of corn tortillas this morning. The soy milk and corn tortillas for breakfast were delicious.

"Hey Sister Ningxia, you have beans and a stone mill, why don't you just make tofu pudding?" Xiao Jie asked curiously. It would be too extravagant to use beans only to grind soy milk for drinking.

Ningxia looked helpless, "I only remembered to change the beans, but forgot to change the vinegar. What should I do with the dry beans!" I can only wait until the scorching sun month to plant cabbage, and then make sauerkraut with the cabbage and see if it can be made with acid water.

A large basin of soy milk grinding left over from the bean dregs is all cheap and delicious.

"Ningxia, I checked out the area behind your house yesterday. It shouldn't be a problem to build a shed there. I'll bring some people over to clear out all the weeds and trees behind the house. I'll even dig a toilet for you if I have time."
