…
On the other side, the people at the educated youth site got off work and cooked in the kitchen. The large kitchen was crowded with educated youth.
There was only one room whose door was closed and the windows were tightly shut. No one came out to enjoy the cool air in such a hot day.
But all the educated youth knew that the people living in that room were Zhu Qinghan and her roommate, so no one asked too much about it. After all, everyone thought it was unlucky.
Not only was the room not as cool as outside, but there was also a fire on.
Zhenzhen was getting more and more confused about Zhu Qinghan's behavior, so she asked, "Why did you suddenly light the fire? It's so hot, and you didn't even open the door. Aren't you afraid that the three of us will die of heat in the house?"
Zhenzhen and Sun Fangfang were sweating from the heat, but Zhu Qinghan didn't let them open the door, for fear that people outside would know what they were doing.
"Wood ash. I have a use for the ash from burning it."
Zhu Qinghan ordered the two men to work for her, "I'll watch the fire and collect the ashes, and you two will chop down the leaves and use hammers to pound them into pulp!"
Zhu Zhenzhen still looked confused and bewildered. They were making a fire and pounding leaves? Zhu Qinghan thought those leaves were garlic and could be pounded into garlic juice for eating?
"No, Zhu Qinghan, what do you want to do? You have to explain it to me and Fangfang. We are both confused by your instructions and are still bewildered."
"You're trying to squeeze juice out of these rotten leaves? You can't sell them for a dime, are you trying to trick us again?"
Sun Zhenzhen kept complaining, but her body was very honest. She immediately took out a hammer from the corner of the room and handed one to Sun Fangfang, and the two of them started to act.
All the leaves of the Guanyin Chaihu tree were washed clean, and Zhu Qinghan picked them out and placed them in an iron basin.
The two men took hammers and started smashing it, and soon a pulp was made.
Zhu Qinghan picked up the wood ashes and then slowly explained to them:
"With a handful of leaves and a handful of ashes, you can make a delicious dish blessed by the gods."
"Zhenzhen Fangfang, believe me, tomorrow morning I will definitely open your eyes."
Zhu Qinghan mixed clean water with burnt wood ash, and then used cotton cloth as a filter to filter the wood ash water. This is the most primitive alkaline water.
Meanwhile, Zhenzhen and Sun Fangfang mashed out the green tree sap, mixed it with the wood ash water, and poured it all into the basin.
The two people watching were completely stunned.
"This is gray and green. Are you going to make poison for people to eat? I don't think even pigs would eat it!"
Zhu Qinghan ignored their complaints.
Mix the two liquids together, add spring water into it, continue stirring, and after stirring several times, cover the basin with cotton cloth. Finally, the job is done.
"Just wait and see. When you try this tomorrow morning, it will make your tongues fall off!"
Although Zhenzhen and Sun Fangfang were full of doubt, they still followed Zhu Qinghan to finish the task.
A night passed, and the next morning, Zhu Qinghan got up early and uncovered the cotton cloth.
I saw that the liquid in the basin had solidified into a jelly-like state. It was emerald green in color and looked crystal clear.
Zhenzhen and Sun Fangfang came over, their faces filled with surprise.
"Is this... is this really edible?"
Zhenzhen still couldn't believe it.
Zhu Qinghan smiled, scooped out a piece with a spoon and put it in a bowl, then poured honey on it and handed it to Zhenzhen: "Try it."
Zhenzhen took a bite carefully, her eyes widened instantly, her face full of surprise: "Wow, this is too delicious, so chewy and sweet, and it has the fragrance of leaves!"
Seeing this, Sun Fangfang also hurriedly took a bite and praised it highly: "Zhu Qinghan, you are amazing. What is this soup?"
Zhu Qinghan said proudly: "This magical tofu is a gift from nature. If we take it to the market and sell it, we will definitely make a lot of money!"
After hearing this, Zhenzhen and Sun Fangfang became very motivated and immediately followed Zhu Qinghan to go to the market to sell the goods.
