Xu Hui looked up at Xiao Da Yong. This idiot knew that she was right when he saw her thoughts, but Gou Sheng and his mother couldn't tell at all, so how could he?
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Xu Hui nodded and admitted, ”It's my first time. I wonder if I can do it?”
”What?” Dazong's daughter-in-law, is this your first time doing this? I thought you did. It's not like you did it for the first time. ”
”That's right, sister-in-law. I thought you had made tofu before, but since you've never made tofu before, how do you know what this tofu is made of?”
”Book!”
What? Xiao Da Yong, Gou Sheng and Xiao Xiuer all stared at Xu Hui with their eyes wide open. They did not dare to believe what they had heard.
Xu Hui was confused by their stares. What was going on? What did she say? Why did it feel like she had seen an alien?
The three of them were stunned for a while. Xiao Xiuer then asked Xu Hui curiously, ”Sister-in-law, why is it written on the books that you need to make tofu?” After all, she had watched her Third Uncle grow up reading books, and she had always thought that the books were profound things that they could not understand. This was the first time she realized that there was actually a book written to make tofu.
”Why is there anything in the book?” Xiao Da Yong was also very curious. After he married Xu Hui, he found out that there was a war story written in the book, and he also wrote about ghosts and deities, thinking that this was all that was written in the book. Who knew that Xu Hui would actually tell him that there were people taught to make tofu in the book?
When he thought about how difficult it was for the ancients to acquire knowledge, and how some people would never know how to write their own names, Xu Hui explained patiently, ”There are many types of books. There are books on how to make tofu, poems, songs, anecdotes, rural books on how to teach people how to fight, military books on how to teach people how to fight, and even books on how to build houses. Of course, there are also books on how to make tofu.
The three of them widened their eyes and stared at Xu Hui without blinking. Xu Hui felt her hair stand on end. They were not wrong. What were they trying to do?
After a long while, Xiao Dazong smiled and said, ”Wifey, you know a lot!” Everyone could clearly see the proud expression of ”I'm so lucky” that didn't come out of his mouth.
Xu Hui could not help but laugh. This idiot!
It was about time, Xu Hui opened the lid and was relieved to see that the tofu brain had condensed. She scooped out two bowls of hot tofu brain and asked Xiao Xiuer to mix them to eat.
He placed the crushed bean curd into a large basin. Since there was no plate to press the tofu, Xu Hui could only place it into a large basin and place a cloth on top of it. He used a thick layer of cloth to press it down hard to let the water from the tofu be filtered out, and then he used a brick to press it onto a thick layer of tofu.
After drinking the sweet soy milk and eating the smooth tofu brains, everyone was filled with anticipation for the best tofu. Even though it was already quite late, none of them wanted to sleep and wait to see what the tofu was made of.
Xiao Da Yong and Gou Sheng were not on time tomorrow night, so they were not afraid of getting up late.
Xu Hui thought for a moment, then took out a piece of hard paper that was used to make the sole of her shoes. She cut the strip into pieces, and after drawing it with a brush, she washed it together and said, ”Since you're not tired, then just play cards!”
”Sister-in-law, what is this?” , Plum Blossom and the others also looked at Xu Hui curiously. The cards in their hands;
Xu Hui raised a card and said, ”Ye-zi!”
”Oh? ”So this is Ye, I've heard that rich people in the town like to play this. I heard it's especially fun!” Xiao Dazong hurriedly told Xu Hui in a loud voice that he did not know much about all aspects.
Xu Hui nodded her head, ”Hubby is right, this is the Leaf Board. Although we don't have the exquisite Leaf Board that others bought, it doesn't affect our playing. I'll tell everyone how to play this. Let's play together.” Compared to the poker cards of this era, Xu Hui was more willing to make a leaf card based on the original owner's memories. Similarly, she did not find the leaf card inferior to the poker card, and the leaf card was the world's earliest card, fully demonstrating the intelligence of our people.
People without entertainment, once they had entertainment projects, were unimaginably crazy.
After a while, Xiao Da Yong and the others, who were familiar with the rules, started to fight. This was especially so for Xiao Xiuer. She was able to understand the little tricks behind the cards very quickly and even grew up quickly. Xu Hui thought that this girl should be well-groomed.
Time flew by when he was playing cards, but before he could feel it, the tofu could already be covered.
When everyone reached the kitchen, Niuniu and Er Wa followed curiously.
He moved the brick away and picked up the thick tofu. Xu Hui and everyone else looked at the white tofu and were very happy.
Niuniu clapped her hands and shouted, ”Tofu, it's tofu!”
