However, looking at Xiao Pingxi's sad face, reddish eyes, and those worried eyebrows, I knew that the little guy was really worried.

Gu Jinli had no choice but to say to him: "Don't be afraid. Let's eat tofu another day. One pound of soybeans can make three pounds of tofu, and the remaining bean dregs can be used to make a few bean dregs cakes. In this way, we can make up for the lost bean sprouts." Come back after eating."

So I decided to make tofu and eat it today.

The soybeans are still very white, but they were found in Lin Jiapo's house. There are three rooms full of dried soybeans, a room full of various melons and vegetables, a room full of sorghum, corn, white flour, and several carefully raised pigs. Pigs and sheep were all hoarded by Lin Changshou and his gang, and now they were given an advantage.

"Here we come." Xiao Ping responded happily and waited for Er Qing to come and open the courtyard door for him. After thanking Er Qing, he ran towards Gu Jinli.

Squatting next to Gu Jinli, he pointed to the wooden box with big rocks in front of him and said, "Aunt Gu, is that just tofu inside? Is it really white? But the soybeans are yellow."

Gu Jinli smiled, moved the stone away, and said, "Don't blink. See with your own eyes whether it is white or not?"

"Yeah, don't blink." Xiaoping looked at the wooden box with a smile. When the linen was lifted, a piece of white snow appeared in front of his eyes.

His eyes lit up and he said in surprise: "Wow, it's so white. Is this tofu? It's really white, like snow."

But he doesn't like snow.

It's snowing and it's very cold. It's very hard to endure it without clothes or quilt.

Gu Jinli nodded and said with a smile: "Poke it, it's harder than snow."

"But, can I poke it?" Xiao Pingxi was shocked. He heard Aunt Gu say that white jade tofu is very popular in He'an Mansion. Many rich people like to eat it. What if it gets damaged?

Gu Jinli: "Of course you can poke it, it's just tofu, and it's not expensive. Besides, this is for us to eat. We can eat it even if it's broken."

But he also taught him: "You can poke your own things, but you can't poke and touch the things of others. Otherwise, you will lose money and you will be laughed at."

"Yeah, I got it, thank you Aunt Gu." Xiao Pingxi was very happy. He poked the tofu twice and said happily: "It's a little soft and a little hard. It's such a strange thing."

But it didn’t break, so happy!

Gu Jinli smiled and called to him: "Come, let's go to the kitchen and make pan-fried five-spice tofu. It's delicious. This is what we did when we first fled to the south. Your grandma is a good at frying tofu."

"Really? Can I learn?"

"You can learn it, but you are still young. It will burn your hands if you learn these things now."

"I'm not afraid. I want to learn and make food for my grandparents, uncles and aunts."

Gu Jinli paused, and finally agreed: "Okay, I will teach you today."

Ji Zhenniang and the others have all eaten tofu, but not for a few months. Today, they helped Gu Jinli make tofu. Today, three families are crowded together in the kitchen, cutting tofu, making bean dregs cakes, washing pots, pouring oil, Frying tofu and bean dregs cakes were very busy.

"Xiao Pingxi, you are here, look at this pot of tofu stewed with eggs. Does it smell good? My mother made it!" Brother Yi pulled Xiao Pingxi to look at the tofu stewed with eggs in the iron pot.

Sister Yu is a careful person. Seeing that Xiaoping was short and couldn't reach the stove, she brought a stool for him to step on and look at it.

"Wow, it smells so good and looks delicious." Xiao Pingxi looked at the eggs in the pot and was shocked. There were so many fried eggs. This meal was more wasteful than eating jade sprouts!

Xiao Pingxi was busy in the kitchen for half an hour. After eating a plate of fried five-spice tofu, Han prepared the meals for Xiao Yantai and the others.

There was a pot of tofu stewed with eggs, a pot of tofu stewed with cabbage, pan-fried five-spice tofu and bean dregs cakes, and two barrels of corn porridge. They were all loaded on the cart and said: "Xiao Pingxi, give them to your friends."

"Mom, I'm going too!" Brother Yi and Xiao Pingxi were familiar with each other, and they were also clamoring to go.

Han agreed: "Go ahead and take good care of Xiao Pingxi."

"Yeah!" Brother Yi responded, looking more and more like an older brother.

Erqing and the maid next to Han pulled the cart out of the courtyard and placed it at the entrance of the courtyard. They called two soldiers to push the cart for Xiao Pingxi and the others.

When the food was delivered to the house where the children lived, the children were excited, but they did not grab the food. You An had taught them that they were not allowed to grab the food, and they had to queue up to get the food, otherwise they would be punished.

The little ones all remembered it and obediently took their own wooden bowls and lined up to get the food to eat. Each one of them was quite satisfied with the meal.

Wen Rong has been keeping vigil for Wen Qiong, and You An took his share.

Xiao Pingxi still remembered Qin Sanlang's words. Seeing that it was getting late, he went back with Brother Yi to have dinner with Gu Jinli and the others.

On the way, I met Niu Wujin and a large group of soldiers' children carrying tofu and bean dregs back to cook.

"Brother Hardware!" Xiao Pingxi greeted them from a distance.

Niu Wujin saw him and said with a smile: "Haha, it's Xiao Pingxi. When I just went to Sister-in-law Qin's house to get tofu, I was so sorry that I couldn't see you. Are you going to the county town? We will see you off then. .”

"Okay, thank you Brother Hardware." Xiao Pingxi and Brother Yi ran over and handed Qijin a piece of candy: "Brother Qijin, here is something to eat for you."

This was given by Aunt Gu, but he didn't eat it. He kept it for the soldiers' children, so that they could build a good relationship.

Qi Jin can walk now, but he walks unsteadily and falls down after walking for a while, but he likes the excitement and makes a fuss when Wu Jin comes to get tofu.

"Tiantian!" Qijin took the candy and stuffed it into his mouth, but Wujin scolded him: "I just know how to eat it. Please thank Brother Pingxi quickly."

Niu Qijin still said thank you, saying softly: "Thank you!"

Xiaoping smiled happily, imitating an adult, patted Qijin's head, said a few words to Niu Wujin, and said hello to others before taking Brother Yi back together.

Brother Yi looked at him, then looked at him again. He really didn't understand. When did Brother Pingxi become familiar with Brother Wujin and the others?

Hey, when did Xiao Pingxi become familiar with him?

I don’t remember, it seems like they always had a good time.

In the evening, Brother Yi told his parents about his doubts.

Han said: "Xiao Pingxi is very smart. It will be good for you to learn more from him."

Zhang Yan also said: "Your mother is right, that little Pingxi is not comparable to ordinary children."

Maybe he has suffered a lot, been bullied, and lived a long life of looking at people's looks. Xiao Pingxi has developed it through practice, and he is much better than ordinary children.

"Okay, Brother Yi understands." Brother Yi liked Xiao Pingxi very much, so his parents asked him to learn from Xiao Pingxi, and he accepted it. He didn't feel that it would be embarrassing for him, the heir of an Earl's Mansion, to learn from an orphan.

The next day, at half past midnight, the gong sounded again in the village.

Dang, Dang, Dang!

When the children heard the sound of gongs, they all got up. After getting dressed, they had breakfast and gathered before midnight. They got on the carriage and were taken to the county seat by Qin Sanlang and Jin Baihu.

Niu Wujin brought a group of little ghosts and came to see them off as promised.

Xiao Pingxi was very happy, feeling that Brother Wujin and the others did not dislike him, but really regarded him as a brother. The carriage started running, and he waved desperately at Niu Wujin and the others, shouting: "Brother Wujin, wait for me to come back!" "

Niu Wujin clicked his tongue and said to the children surrounding him: "Did you see that Xiao Pingxi became obedient to me within a few days of his arrival? You must be more obedient in the future."

The little devils nodded desperately: "Yeah, yeah, Brother Hardware is so awesome, we will definitely be more obedient in the future!"

After Qin Sanlang and others stayed in the county town with Xiao Pingxi and others for a day, the Bian family was escorted to the county town.

Bian Zaide was a more vicious figure than Tang Zhongzhou. He shouted all the way: "I was wronged. Soldiers slandered ordinary people. I have asked the caravan to go to the capital and deliver a blood letter to Jing Zhaoyin. Even if I All the family members have been killed, and the adults in the capital will avenge the Bian family!"

When General Ge heard this, his eyes were about to burst. He pointed at Bian Zaide and roared: "Come on, stop this villain's mouth!"

Then he grabbed Tong Baihu and asked, "Is this bitch really telling the truth? Did he really let the caravan deliver a blood letter to the capital?"

If it is true, the case in Gaoshui County will not be settled, and General Xu will be constrained by the capital!
