Chapter 72 Spicy Hot Pot
The patriarch gritted his teeth and said: "When Xiyue came back like this, something must have happened. I don't know when Xiyue will wake up, so I asked the smarter fourth child to inquire about it. The fourth child just came back."

The fourth child of the patriarch's family is ranked according to the patriarch's family.

Xie Mingzhu called the patriarch Seventh Brother, according to the general ranking of the clan's seniority.

"That kid owes a lot of gambling debts, and he has quite a lot of money. But at this time, a widowed lady of the county guard took a fancy to his skin..."

Xie Mingzhu: "???"

She didn't have much memory of the scum that Xie Xiyue married.

The patriarch didn't notice Xie Mingzhu's doubts either, so he just continued: "That bastard wants to climb a high branch, so he has to climb a high branch, just reconcile with us, Xiyue, and leave us openly, as for..."

The patriarch's wife was also very angry.

"Then what should we do now?" Xie Mingzhu asked.

The patriarch said: "I have to get all of Xiyue's dowry back, and I have to go over there to ask for an explanation. We can't think that our Xiyue natal family has no one left!"

Originally thinking that he was a student of the scholarly family, Xiyue married and waited to live a good life, but now it seems that the good family they thought was a pit of fire, which harmed Xiyue.

"Then if you want to use a carriage, or need our help, please feel free to say hello."

The patriarch said to Xie Yunli: "Uncle Yunli, tomorrow you go with Mingjin and me, we have more people."

"it is good."

Xie Yunli readily agreed.

The patriarch took out another cloth bag with some broken silver in it, handed it to Xie Mingzhu, and said sincerely: "Mingzhu, these are medicine money."

Xie Mingzhu took the cloth bag, picked a small piece of broken silver from it, and said: "These medicinal materials are not expensive medicinal materials, they are not worth much, these are enough."

If Xie Mingzhu didn't take the money, the patriarch and his wife would definitely feel that they owed Xie Mingzhu's favor, and they would feel a little more uncomfortable when they interacted with each other in the future.

"Mingzhu, thank you." The patriarch sincerely thanked Xie Mingzhu.

I was also glad that she had nothing to do with herself at the time, if Xie Mingzhu hadn't made a move, Xiyue might have suffered even more.

"Patriarch, Qin Che and I will live in the village in the future, and we will have to rely on your care in the future."

The patriarch smiled and said, "No matter where you and Qin Che go, you can live well."

"According to the patriarch's auspicious words."

The patriarch and his wife finished their business and were about to leave.

Xie Mingzhu kindly asked them to come for lunch.

In the past, the villagers of Xiejia Village only ate two meals.

But Xie Mingzhu can't, Xie Mingzhu is a modern person who is used to three meals a day.

How could two meals be unbearable, at least in her house, she had to have three meals a day.

Today's lunch is wild boar bones boiled in spicy hot pot.

These days, most people don't like to eat this kind of bones that don't have any oil or water.

It is the same kind of bones that are picked out at the butcher shop.

There are various spices in the spicy hot pot base, and the spicy aroma is pungent and has a deadly temptation.

This made everyone swallow their saliva when they smelled such a fragrance.

Mrs. Zhao put these stewed spicy hot pots in wooden basins and brought them to the table.

Xie Mingzhu was worried that the stomachs of the family members would not be able to take it when they ate this strong food for the first time, so she reminded: "This dish is very irritating to the stomach. When you eat it, be careful."

Xie Mingzhu went back to the stove again, and fried Qin Che a plate of twice-cooked pork with wild boar bamboo shoots.

"Qin Che, you just have to taste the things in this basin."

After Xie Mingzhu sat down next to Qin Che, the rest of the table moved their chopsticks.

The smell of spices well conceals the smell of wild boar, and the meat and bones are stewed just right.

Everyone is so busy, you take a bite, and I eat the meat in a bite.

Qin Che only tasted a little bit, and then focused on eating the twice-cooked pork in front of him.

"Qin Che, tell me, how about we put this way of eating in the inn?"

"I think so."

Qin Che thought that something with such a heavy taste might be quite suitable for people in the county.

"I also think it is feasible, wait for me to study it."

It is unrealistic to buy spicy hot pot ingredients in Qiangguo Mall all the time. The best way is to fry them yourself.

Other things are easy to say, but chili is not easy to do.

Given the climate of Xiejia Village, this season should be the season when peppers are about to mature.

Xie Mingzhu thought that if she really wanted to do these things on a large scale, she would have to wait until spring, unless she wanted to get out-of-season vegetables and build a greenhouse or something, but... if she wanted to build a greenhouse, how would she do it?

It's hard.

"I'll listen to you."

Qin Che looked at Xie Mingzhu with bright eyes, and his eyes were full of tolerance and pampering.

The patriarch and his wife exchanged glances tacitly.

At first they thought that Qin Che and Qin Che's marriage would not last long, but now it seems that their young couple is really a match made in heaven.

After lunch, Mrs. Zhao and Liu Guizhi cleaned up the kitchen.

Xie Mingzhu took a look at the soybeans she had soaked, confirmed that the soybean milk could be ground, and went to the water mill with the wooden bucket.

At this time, there were no other villagers in the water mill. Xie Mingzhu washed the water mill with clean water and began to grind soybean milk.

The air is filled with the smell of soy milk.

A villager wanted to grind some wheat. As soon as she entered the water mill, she asked, "Mingzhu, are you going to make tofu again?"

"Yes!"

Xie Mingzhu didn't hide it either, and asked, "Want to learn?"

"Ah..." The villagers froze for a moment, "Can I learn?"

"Yes, everyone can come and learn."

When Xie Mingzhu said this, the villagers said cheerfully: "Then I will let other people learn how to make tofu from you."

The villagers greeted other villagers to follow Xie Mingzhu to make tofu.

There is a stone mill for grinding soybean milk, which is very convenient.

The device for filtering bean dregs is not very complicated.

The most critical problem is acid water.

The villagers gathered around the stove and watched Xie Mingzhu pour the acid water prepared in advance into the filtered boiling soybean milk.

So... Everyone saw that the soy milk became flocs under the action of acid water, and these flocs slowly condensed together.

"Mingzhu, is it that simple to make tofu?"

"Yes!"

"What was the last one you poured?"

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the key to making soy milk is acid water!

"Sour water, this is simpler."

Xie Mingzhu gave a general account of the production process of acid water.

She put some sauerkraut in the bowl for everyone to taste.

"You all have a taste. In this season, there are so many green vegetables that you can't finish them all. You can use this method to preserve the green vegetables and eat them again in winter."

Xie Mingzhu's chubby hands squeezed out the sour water in the sauerkraut.

"This kind of sour water can be used to make soy milk, and sauerkraut without sour water can be fried and eaten. Add a little when cooking noodles and porridge. If you can't finish eating, you can put these vegetables in the sun to dry until ready to eat When it’s time, soak it in boiling water for a while and eat it.”
