Chapter 882 Making Tofu (10th update)
Hu Xiaoxiao, who had just woken up, saw Su Ruanruan walking out in a hurry and felt strange, "Ruanruan, where are you going?"
Su Ruanruan turned around, looked at Hu Xiaoxiao who was still sleepy, and said softly, "I'll go see if Cheng Jin is here. If you're sleepy, just sleep a little longer."
The two of them chatted too late last night. Su Runrun herself didn't know when she fell asleep, but she was still a little sleepy.
But compared to sleeping, she certainly wanted to see Xiao Chengjin as soon as possible.
After Su Runrun finished speaking, she went out and considerately closed the door for Hu Xiaoxiao.
Hu Xiaoxiao lay on the kang with her eyes open for a while, and found that she couldn't fall asleep.
The wedding was still in two days, but she found herself getting nervous already. Her heart was beating like a drum.
The more she lay down, the more energetic she felt. There was no other way, Hu Xiaoxiao could only get up, dress and comb her hair.
When Hu Xiaoxiao finished packing and came out, she saw Su Runruan and Xiao Chengjin grinding beans in the corner of the yard.
There is a millstone in the Su family's yard, which was transported from the Su family's yard in the third production brigade. In the past two years, they have occasionally used it to make tofu.
The tofu that is ground is consumed by the Su family themselves. At most, some is given to the Xiao family, and some to Hu Xiaoxiao's family.
Hu Xiaoxiao stood and watched for a while, and saw Xiao Chengjin, who had been pushing the millstone in circles, stopped. At Su Runruan's strong request, he changed positions with Su Runruan.
Now it's Su Ruanruan's turn to push the mill. Xiao Chengjin will come forward and scoop beans in with a spoon.
Although the millstone was not small, Su Ruanruan pushed it very quickly, looking quite relaxed.
But Hu Xiaoxiao just watched and didn't go forward.
It's not that she doesn't want to help, but that she is unable to do so.
Thinking back to the first time I saw Su Runruan pushing the millstone, Su Runruan also looked so relaxed.
At that time, she thought that if Su Ruanruan could push it so easily, then she must be able to do it too.
However, it turned out that she was overthinking.
Although she could push the mill, it was much more difficult. She was out of breath after just two rounds, and she couldn't muster the strength to walk more than a few rounds.
In the end, Su Ruanruan finished grinding the rest with a smile.
She went forward, but it was more of a nuisance than a help.
Su Runrun and Xiao Chengjin cooperated very well. It seemed that they had agreed to change positions after a period of time.
The reason for changing positions was not because I was tired, but because I felt dizzy from turning in circles all the time.
With the cooperation of Su Ruanruan and Xiao Chengjin, it took less than half an hour to grind all the beans.
Grinding is just the first step. The second step is filtering, then boiling and making tofu.
The process was rather complicated, but as Granny Chen did it more often, she became more skilled at it. With the help of Su Runrun and Xiao Chengjin, she quickly took out all the tofu. She also remembered to leave some tofu pudding for everyone to have as breakfast.
After breakfast, the tofu has been put into the mold and just needs to be pressed before it can be eaten.
Grandma Chen prepared a lot of beans. This time she made six plates of tofu, which weighed about sixty to seventy kilograms in total.
This amount of tofu is more than enough for three families to share.
While Su Runrun and the others were packing up, Wei Hong also came with Hu Wenjing and Hu Zhenjing.
Because there was only one sewing machine and there were many people who knew how to make clothes, Su Ruanruan was excluded.
