Rebirth with Space Materials: Little Cannon Fodder Awakens

Chapter 542
After she washed her hands and came out of the bathroom, she saw Wang Ailan use a spatula to shovel out a large piece of ground soybeans from the pot, and then put the piece of ground soybeans on the cutting board and beat them. Especially strenuous.

So she stepped forward and asked Wang Ailan, "Aunt Wang, do you need my help?"

"Yes, come here and I will teach you."

"Okay." After Shi Qinghuan finished speaking, she rolled up her sleeves and walked towards Wang Ailan.

When she came to Wang Ailan's side, she said to Wang Ailan: "Aunt Wang, what do you say, I will do as you say."

"It's very simple. You beat the ground soybeans for two to three minutes, and then shape them into bricks for easy storage."

When Shi Qinghuan heard Wang Ailan's words, she said hello, and then she picked up the crushed soybean and began to beat it.

When she was about to break the ground soybeans into sauce cubes, she asked Wang Ailan, "Aunt Wang, why did you beat the sauce cubes? Can't you just make them into bricks?"

"Of course not. Our ancestors have followed these steps for generations, so we have to follow their steps, otherwise we will not be able to make authentic Northeast soybean paste."

"I see, how do you see how I beat the sauce?"

After hearing Shi Qinghuan's words, Wang Ailan looked at the sauce cube in Shi Qinghuan's hand, and saw that the sauce cube that Shi Qinghuan beat was of a special standard.

So she said to Shi Qinghuan: "Very good, it's not too bad to beat me."

"Then you just give me the job of beating the sauce cubes. You know that I have great strength, so this job is nothing to me."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, I'll get the newspaper to wrap the sauce."

Shi Qinghuan nodded when she heard Wang Ailan's words, and then she put the beaten sauce cube aside, then shoveled out a piece of crushed soybean from the pot and continued to beat it.

More than an hour later, Shi Qinghuan beat the last piece of sauce, and then she moved her sore wrist, and asked Wang Ailan, "Aunt Wang, how long will this sauce be fermented before it can be used for sauce?"

"Two or three months, we have a date for the sauce, usually on February 29 or [-] of the lunar calendar, if you can't remember the time to put the sauce, just put the sauce in my house and wait for the sauce I’ll call you to come to my house to have sauce with me when I’m here.”

"Okay, then I will put the sauce at your house. By the way, the Chinese New Year will be over in a month. Do we have a holiday for the Chinese New Year?"

"Of course there is. Clerical workers like you have half a month's holiday during the Chinese New Year, but technical workers are not as lucky as you. They only have one week's holiday."

"That's good too. You should know that the employees in the factory have fewer holidays, so the benefits of our research institute are pretty good."

"I'm much more comfortable after seeing you like this, otherwise I'd always be thinking about your Uncle Yong's seven-day vacation, and I would just feel panicked."

Shi Qinghuan smiled when she heard Wang Ailan's words, and then she asked Wang Ailan: "Aunt Wang, are you going back to your hometown for the Chinese New Year this year?"

"No, there are no people in our hometown anymore. Besides, the vacation is too short, and we can't stay in our hometown for two days, so let's not bother. What about you, are you going back to Beijing for the New Year?"

"I don't know yet. It mainly depends on my brother. If he returns, I will."
