"I've taken a look. Go feed the chickens and get yourself in line, or don't blame me for dealing with you."
Mo Yan looked at him calmly.
Sanya, standing to the side, was a little confused. Should she continue feeding the chickens?
"Sanya, let him feed the chickens, and you help your auntie start the fire," Mo Yan said, looking at Sanya again.
"Okay, Auntie."
Sanya obediently placed the pig feed for the chickens into Tao Zhengyi's hands, saying, "Just feed it to the chickens, and while you're at it, see if there are any eggs."
Tao Zhengyi: "..."
Seeing this, Da Ya and Er Ya were a little worried. What if Xiao Bao started making a fuss?
Unexpectedly, Tao Zhengyi took it directly, his expression somewhat displeased, "I understand."
He took it and headed towards the chicken coop; he had no choice but to go, as his mother still had a feather duster in her hand.
Tao Zhengyi walked over to the chicken coop and began clumsily feeding the chickens.
After all the pig feed was put in, the chickens started eating.
There's some sand nearby; just throw some in for them.
Chickens need to eat grit to aid digestion; otherwise, their eggs would be soft and mushy. [I don't know the exact mechanism, but sorry to say, my chickens' eggs were soft before they started eating grit!]
Mo Yan was cooking with San Ya, making vegetable porridge, and was just about to stir-fry a potato when Tao Zhengyi excitedly ran over with two eggs.
"Mom, I found two eggs."
He looked as excited as if he had found money, but for him, it was probably a similar feeling.
"Hmm, I didn't know you could collect eggs. I'll make you egg and potato pancakes later."
Mo Yan made egg and potato pancakes using eggs, shredded potatoes, and flour.
I also made a cold dish of houttuynia cordata and took out some pickled vegetables; that was breakfast.
Mo Yan also discovered that there were mung beans and soybeans in the house.
It has to be said that the old man and woman really gave away all their belongings in gold.
Mo Yan soaked the soybeans to make tofu, and prepared the mung beans to sprout.
She knew that she could start a small business now, as there was a market every three days in the neighborhood, and she could sell tofu and bean sprouts then.
Once I've made some money, I'll go and deal with that scumbag.
Without money, nothing you say will make a difference.
Putting everything else aside, the fare is the problem.
Only after everything was ready did I call the little ones to eat.
Daya, Erya, and Sanya were a little embarrassed, as they never sat at the table at home.
"Auntie, shall we eat in the kitchen?" They didn't want to eat potato pancakes anymore; they'd just have porridge.
"No." Mo Yan looked at the three of them with a stern face.
"Then we won't eat it," they quickly said.
They can skip breakfast.
"What I mean is, you have to eat at the table. There's no rule in our family that girls can't eat at the table." Mo Yan finished speaking and looked at Tao Zhengyi. "Tao Zhengyi, if you dare to eat by yourself, do you believe I'll deal with you? Everyone else hasn't even sat down at the table yet, and you're already eating. Don't you have any manners?"
Tao Zhengyi: "..."
"Then... I can't even eat." Tao Zhengyi felt extremely wronged.
"Okay, but we have to eat together. There's no reason for you to eat alone. I'll explain now, but I don't want to talk anymore. I want to take action."
Tao Zhengyi: "..."
"Da Ya, Er Ya, San Ya, come and eat quickly." Tao Zhengyi immediately addressed the three girls and even ran to help serve them porridge.
The congee with pickled vegetables and potato pancakes was delicious. The three girls were shy at first, but once they started eating, they couldn't stop.
"Da Ya, Er Ya, San Ya, don't be too reserved at home from now on. You don't need to think about any rules. Here, you are all children. You all need to help with housework, eat properly, and study hard, understand?"
Mo Yan looked at the three girls and said that they might not be able to accept it right away, but they would gradually change over time.
"Mmm-hmm-hmm."
The three little girls kept nodding.
After eating, Mo Yan went out. She planned to plant soybeans and potatoes, but nothing else.
Potatoes can be used in many ways, and soybeans can be used to make tofu.
After inspecting the land, Mo Yan returned, and on the way, she bought 100 jin of soybeans from the village.
The villagers were curious, "Mo Yan, why did you buy so many beans?"
"Let's make some soy milk and tofu pudding." Mo Yan noticed that the tofu here was different from what she knew. The biggest difference was that the tofu here was very coarse, not smooth at all, and had a slightly sour taste. This was because they used vinegar to curdle the tofu and didn't filter out the soybean pulp. That's why it was like this.
She wants to make more than just tofu; she wants to make tofu skin, braised tofu, braised dried tofu, tofu rolls, and fermented tofu. If she has the resources, she could even set up a tofu factory someday.
"Why did we need to buy so many beans?"
Because the tofu here doesn't taste good, not many people eat it, so naturally the price of soybeans is very low, and not many people like it.
"Buy more to play with." Mo Yan didn't plan to use vinegar to curdle tofu; she wanted to use gypsum powder instead.
Villagers: "..."
That youngest daughter-in-law of the Tao family is really too wasteful; she actually bought beans to play with.
When the old lady heard this and went to Mo Yan's house, she saw her precious little darling picking beans.
"Oh my goodness, Xiao Bao, who told you to do this? Couldn't you have sent those three girls instead?!"
The old lady walked over and took the bowl from his hands, glaring fiercely at Tao Erya and Tao Sanya. "Erya, Sanya, what's wrong with you two? Didn't I tell you to take good care of Xiaobao? Why are you two playing around here? Can't you understand human language?"
