Chapter 176
Little Qian looked at the time and estimated that it was almost time. He handed the spoon to Zhou Dalang and told him, "you can grind it here with old four. After grinding, take it back to me. I'll go to the school to cook first."
Zhou Dalang should go down.
Little Qian came forward and pulled a child out with one hand. "Let's go. We should have class. Be careful. Mr. Qian can't find you for a while."
The mill was not far from the school. It was only a few tens of breaths away, so as soon as they got out of the crowd, they ran a few steps forward and turned a corner to see Mr. Zhuang standing at the intersection looking this way.
Xiao Qian hurriedly led the two children to salute and said, "Mr. Zhuang, the two children have caused you trouble."
Mr. Zhuang smiled and said, "nothing. It's time to finish class now. Why is it so busy over there?"
Little Qian smiled and said, "isn't the winter solstice coming soon? People in the village grind something to make snacks for the children."
Mr. Zhuang nodded and said with a smile, "that's good."
The winter solstice school is also a holiday, and it lasts three days.
When Mr. Zhuang announced the good news, everyone was very happy.
Man Bao is also very happy. He has whispered with Bai Shanbao about where to play these three days.
Mr. Zhuang slipped the two children to the yard when the children were about to run out. Man Bao first said, "Sir, we have finished your homework."
"Yes," Mr. Zhuang nodded, "so I decided to decorate some for you in the next three days."
The time interval of this holiday is too short. The winter solstice holiday happened only two days after he came back from school last time. Mr. Zhuang always abides by the rules, so even if he knows that the students are very restless, he didn't cancel the holiday.
Mr. Zhuang knows the combination of work and rest very well. He doesn't assign much homework every holiday, but there are some exceptions to Bai Shanbao and man Bao. This time, Mr. Zhuang assigned them two extra texts.
These are two unread texts. Mr. Zhuang asked them to recite them. "I'll check them when I get back from vacation."
The two children can only answer, get their homework and leave.
Bai Shanbao and man Bao walked together. Man Bao invited him, "my family is going to make tofu. Do you want to see it?"
Bai Shanbao didn't understand, "what's good about making tofu? I want to catch loach."
"No, I'm called my fourth brother on both banks of the river. They've turned over," man Bao said. "We have to wait until next year, or we'll have nothing to eat next year if we catch it now. Don't you wonder how beans turn into tofu? "
Bai Shanbao was not curious, but he followed man Bao to the Zhou family.
It was said that the Zhou family wanted tofu. Liu specially asked aunt Rong to go and teach little Qian how to order tofu.
When they arrived, the tofu had already been ordered. At this time, it was on the table in the yard, wrapped with a layer of gauze and pressed against the bucket.
Man Bao looked up curiously. Xiao Qian opened a layer of gauze for her to see, and said with a smile, "thanks to Aunt Rong's help, otherwise I really can't do it."
After talking, he said to Bai Shanbao, "when you go back, young master, take some back, and try our tofu in the evening."
Man Bao looks at it white. He puts a piece in his mouth when people don't pay attention to it. He just looks back and sees Bai Shanbao:
Man Bao secretly vomited out. Seeing Bai Shanbao staring at her, she whispered, "what hasn't been cooked is not delicious."
Bai Shanbao:... Isn't this nonsense?
The Zhou family's board of tofu is very successful, and there are many.
Before, man Bao didn't say how much tofu a kilogram of beans could make. Xiao Qian estimated that he had soaked five kilograms of beans and thought that his family should be able to finish eating. Who knew he could make so much tofu.
Xiao Qian estimated that the two plates of tofu had to be about 40 kilograms.
She poked and felt that it was ok, so she took a knife to cut tofu.
Qian stood under the eaves and looked, nodded and said, "divide two pots, one for the Bai family and the other for the village head's family. Take some of the rest and pack it for Mr. Zhuang."
She looked at the time and said to Lang on Thursday, "Mr. Zhuang estimates to go to town today. You can send it now."
Zhou Silang answered. For fear that the tofu would break, he put the tofu under the basket with the lotus leaves dried at home.
Looking at Xiao Qian's sorting out all the gifts, Qian said, "leave the rest until tomorrow. Go back to your mother's house and take some back, and let the family taste fresh."
Xiao Qian and others were happy at the speech and answered one after another.
Man Bao ran to Qian's side, raised his cerebellar bag and asked, "Mom, am I going to my uncle's house tomorrow?"
Qian smiled and said, "your eldest brother, they can go. Will you stay at home with your mother?"
Man Bao tooted his mouth and was not very happy. "I haven't played at my uncle's house for a long time."
Qian touched her little head and said with a smile, "there are guests at home tomorrow. My mother can't leave."
Unless Qian goes back to Qian's house in person, man Bao usually doesn't go back to Qian's house. Most of them are Zhou Dalang and Xiao Qian with a few small ones. The same is true for the new year.
When man Bao heard that there were guests at home, he immediately cheered up and asked curiously, "who is it?"
"Distinguished guest, there is a beautiful girl here. Tomorrow you help your mother see if you like her."
Man Bao was clever. He immediately thought about Lang's being teased on Thursday this morning. His eyes turned and he said, "Oh," I know. He came to see fourth brother, didn't he? "
Qian smiled and did not speak.
I did come here.
Before Lang went out to serve on Thursday, Qian went to find a matchmaker, but the matchmaker had no echo. She also knew that it was estimated that people in several surrounding villages had heard about Lao Si gambling, so she was not happy.
It was not until the house of the Zhou family was completed that the matchmaker came to the door and mentioned two, but Qian was dissatisfied without seeing people. Naturally, he refused to see them.
Because the matchmaker's proposals are not very good.
Although Qian doesn't usually go out, she can't hide things from her ears in several villages. She had many sons and grew up one after another. As soon as she grew up, she had to talk about marriage, so when Zhou Dalang first started talking about marriage, she walked through several nearby villages.
She knows how many girls there are in her family, what their family style is and what their reviews are. Although she has been out of the house for a few years because of her poor health, there are often people who come to visit her. In addition, she also has three daughter-in-law of Xiao Qian and Feng He. The matchmaker can't mess with her if she wants to mess with a bad girl.
This time, she finally let go of the meeting. First, she wanted to meet the girl's family, and second, she also wanted the two children to meet.
If man Baozang couldn't stop, he immediately ran to find thurlang to make him look better tomorrow. For this reason, she also helped thurlang grab the clothes that wurlang made last year, "brother five, when the fourth brother sees his beautiful sister, she'll return it to you."
Friday Lang didn't mind much, but looked at Zhou Silang suspiciously, "can you wear it?"
