Qingxuan sent Li Mengyue to three miles away from Xinghua Village, and Li Mengyue was taken away.
She is now a mother with a baby, so she can't have anything happen between her and a man.
On the way home, he saw from afar that Mrs. Li was standing outside the door, looking out, waiting for her daughter.
When Li Mengyue saw this scene, her speed on the road became faster and faster.
"Yueyue, mother made some chicken soup for you. Drink it while it's hot to nourish your body." Mrs. Li asked softly when she saw her daughter.
"Mom, the baby is still young, so he doesn't need to eat too much to replenish his body."
"Okay, okay, just drink one bowl."
Mrs. Li originally wanted her daughter to drink two bowls, but after hearing what Li Mengyue said, she let her drink only one bowl.
After Li Mengyue finished drinking the chicken soup, she wanted to eat soft and tender tofu.
Speaking of tofu, she has been here for a while, but she has never seen anyone selling tofu.
"Mom, let's make some tofu."
"Tofu? What is tofu?" Li asked, confused.
"Mom, it's a white and tender food. Haven't you seen it before?"
Li shook her head.
Seeing Li's confused look, Li Mengyue was sure that no one here had made tofu yet, which meant that if she could make tofu, it would be unique.
But soybeans are indispensable for making tofu.
So Li Mengyue thought of the three acres of land that she had allocated to her family, and what she wanted to plant there was soybeans.
As soon as she thought of it, she started to work. Li Mengyue put aside her job and prepared to farm three acres of land at the foot of the mountain.
They all went to the edge of the soybean field and saw that the soybean pods were ripe. If they were not harvested, the soybeans would fall out of the pods and onto the ground.
There were only three acres of land for growing soybeans. It was wasteland that Li An had cleared. It had little fertility, and the yield of soybeans was not high.
It can be seen from the sparse soybean pods that not many soybeans can be harvested from three acres of land.
But soybeans are really good things. They can be used to make tofu, as well as soy milk, tofu pudding, bean curd sheets, bean sprouts, natto, and soybean sauce.
In addition, it can also be used as a side dish to make delicious dishes such as stewed pig's trotters with soybeans, braised eggplant with soybeans, and braised pork with soybeans.
Thinking of this, Li Mengyue suddenly felt hungry again.
He immediately went home and asked someone to come and collect the soybeans.
But my father is leading people to plant trees on the hill and can’t get away, so it seems I have to hire someone else.
Before I got home, I happened to meet the village chief.
"Yue girl, you're also catching locusts in the fields. No, you didn't bring a net or a small bamboo basket."
"Grandpa Village Chief, I'm going to the three acres of land at home."
"Oh! I wonder what Li Gui planted on those three acres of land."
After Village Chief Li finished speaking, he started talking angrily again without waiting for Li Mengyue to respond.
"Li Gui is too partial. Your father worked so hard in the Li family mansion, and in the end, he only gave him three acres of dry land, and it was barren land at that."
Li Mengyue was happy to see the village chief fighting for her father.
"Grandpa Village Chief, the division of the family has already been formalized. There is no need to mention it again. I have something to ask you."
"Girl Yue, whatever's going on, just tell the village chief."
"Grandpa Village Chief, I think the soybeans in the field are ready to be harvested. Can you help me find some workers? Ten cents a day."
"Sure, it's nothing to me. Don't tell me, I can send someone to you right away. There are still many young and strong people in our village. They are not planting trees in the mountains, but catching locusts in the fields."
After the village chief finished speaking, he turned around and went to look for someone.
But just after taking a step forward, he retreated again and couldn't help saying, "Yue girl, what do you say are planted in the field, soybeans?"
"Yes, it's soybeans."
The village chief nodded and said to himself, "Soybeans, what are soybeans? I've never heard of them."
Li Mengyue heard the village chief talking to himself, but didn't take it seriously. She really didn't know. The villagers didn't know what crops were growing in the fields.
