"Of course I do. The problem is, if it were an ordinary person, they wouldn't want this spoon. Even though it's small, it's really annoying!"
Su He asked: "Did you say you were leaving?"
"How can I not leave? It has come to this! The Tan family is too honest, otherwise it wouldn't be like this."
Soon, Yan Yuren came out with the two old ladies and the Tang sisters. Mrs. Yuan was also talking nearby. Xiao Yu from the logistics department also arrived. Xiao Tian said, "When we go back to work after the New Year, we will help transfer the sisters' status to the district office and treat them as orphans of martyrs."
Su He took a look and realized that Yan Liren was none other than Yan Lihua who had been to her home before. Seeing Yan Lihua looking at her, she even took the initiative to greet her.
Yan Lihua nodded, greeted Su He, and then turned back to talk to the logistics staff about how to handle the subsequent procedures.
Zhou Linfang asked Su He, "How come you still know Yan Yuren?"
Su He didn't say anything. This was not something she should say. Was she going to say that the two children had chosen the Jin family before? Anyway, the two children were going to leave and she would never see them again, so there was no need to say it again.
Finally the car drove away, and it seemed to take away the dark clouds over the Tan family as well.
Lian Yue came out to thank the neighbors around her, and others also comforted her: "Lian Yue, you are just too heartless!"
"It's a lesson for the future. If you want to adopt someone else's child, you have to do it early. Otherwise, it's hard to straighten a crooked tree!"
Su He saw that there was nothing exciting to see, so he went back to Ma's house with Zhou Linfang. Just then, a bucket of beans had been ground, and now it was the turn of the Ma family's beans.
Zhou Linfang: "This millstone is small, so it doesn't need two people to push it. Let Old Ma push it by himself. I'll add the beans. You two can go back to your hometown."
Su He was unhappy: "Didn't we agree that both families should help each other? Why are you chasing us away when it's your family's turn?"
Zhou Linfang joked, "Oh, the kids are playing outside, and Lao Ma and I want to have some time for ourselves! You two are getting in the way! Get out of here!"
Lao Ma also said that it was just a small job and there was no need to be polite.
The Jin couple knew that they were serious and didn't bother to be polite. They hung the ground beans on the handlebars and pushed the bicycle back home.
After entering the house, Jin Weiguo poured the whole bucket of raw bean paste into a clean large iron pot, added a lot of water, and started to cook it underneath.
Teacher Wu has made tofu, but Su He has only ever talked about it on paper. She has seen videos of people making tofu on food blogs, but has never tried it herself, so the job of making tofu has to be done by her mother-in-law.
Su He was looking forward to drinking soy milk, so she asked, "Mom, let's make some sweet soy milk."
Teacher Wu took out a two-handled pot and said, "Okay, it all went into our stomachs anyway. Xiao Su, bring some sugar. We can keep half the pot of soy milk. There are so many of us, so one bowl per person is not too much."
Su He had brought the sugar jar a long time ago. Seeing that her mother-in-law used a two-eared stew pot to store soy milk, she put a lot of sugar into it. The soy milk boiled quickly, and Teacher Wu scooped it into the two-eared pot with a ladle. The rest in the big iron pot was reserved for making tofu.
After watching the excitement at the Tan family, Daxiao and Erxiao and the others visited the Ma brothers and the He brothers. The Chinese New Year was approaching and every family was busy preparing for the New Year. When they arrived at the Jin family, it was time to drink soy milk.
Su He was calling out to a few children who were sweating outside. He was giving each of them a bowl of rice with sugar in it. After drinking it, the taste was fragrant and had a hint of sweetness.
After drinking, the children ran out again.
The Jin family's tofu was cooked that day. They cut a few pieces, placed them in the yard, and hung them high up so that they could eat frozen tofu.
After dinner in the evening, Su He and her mother-in-law soaked ten kilograms of glutinous rice, leaving only a few kilograms for steaming glutinous rice.
The soaked glutinous rice can be brought to the town every day and made into rice paste. If you don’t want to go that far, you can use the Ma family’s stone mill to grind it into coarse rice paste.
That night, the man finally found an opportunity. He wanted to have a chat with his wife about how there were so many prostitutes in the house and where they came from.
(The author has something to say: He's not satisfied with just having meat to eat. This man is too serious. I don't know how men should communicate with women. What do you think is the appropriate way to communicate?)
