Madam, She Has a Tender Heart

A steady stream of beans of all kinds is shipped to Xingengzhai.

The villages originally grew beans, but they didn't want to waste the land and wanted to get some food. Now that we have rice, we don’t eat beans as much.

People in various villages heard that Su Qingyu paid a lot of money to acquire her, and they probably knew her intentions.

In addition, the owners of each village were promoting it in each village, so everyone carried various beans on their backs and sold them to Su Qingyu's shop in the market town.

Shopkeeper Ding saw that there was another movement in the Xingenzhai shop next door in the winter, so he hurriedly ran over to take a look.

This winter, Manager Li took his people back to Chang'an to celebrate the New Year, not in Renzhou.

There were few people left in the Renzhou caravan. This time the bandits attacked the stronghold and did not help the stronghold. Manager Ding always remembered it.

Now that I heard about the uses of various beans, I also went to the people left behind in Xinrenzhou City and asked the caravan to help them find some beans.

Xiang Zhen expressed her gratitude on behalf of Su Qingyu and treated him to a good meal and drinks.

Then there was a steady stream of beans delivered to Xingengzhai.

Su Qingyu took Guo and others to build another tofu house next to the sauce house.

In winter, there are fewer fresh mushrooms and wild meat, and there is less work in the sauce room. Liang Si saw that the tofu house was in need of people and the salary was ten cents higher than before, so she applied for the tofu house.

Su Qingnao was a little surprised to see her, as long as she was willing to endure hardship.

Just don't be like that girl, or she will really drive people away from the mountain.

Finally, Su Qingyu and Guo made the tofu.

On a cold day, if you put it outside, it will be frozen tofu, throw it into the hot pot, take a bite of the juice, and have the aroma of beans. Adults and children love to eat it.

If you put it in the market town, there are a lot of people grabbing it, and people who come late often can't buy it.

There is a fresh dish to eat in winter. It tastes good and is not picky. If you can't buy it, you will stick to it. If you can't buy it, you won't go back.

I originally wanted to make it and transport it to the people mining in the mountains, and also add it as a dish to eat, but I didn't expect that it sold well in the market town.

Fearing that there would not be enough beans, Su Qingnao also sent people to nearby counties and towns to collect a lot of beans. There was also a steady flow of Yongfeng ships from Renzhou City.

In order to keep it for a long time, Su Qingyu and Guo studied various methods in addition to soft tofu and old tofu. Tofu skin, dried tofu, tofu gluten, yuba, vegetarian chicken, qianzhang, shredded tofu, tofu puff...

A batch will be sent to the mine every once in a while.

There are also different kinds of food in the village every day. Everyone enjoyed the meal.

Then braise the dried beans and make them into fragrant dried beans, which can be used for stir-frying, cold dressing, and as snacks. Everyone loves to eat them.

Xiaobao's favorite thing is that grandma would skewer the dried incense into skewers, bake them on the fire pot until the incense is charred and fragrant, and then spread a layer of sauce on top...

Chandler.

He leaned against his grandmother and drooled.

"Grandma, are you okay yet?" Xiaobao asked while swallowing his saliva.

Mother Su turned the incense stick over and said with a smile: "Wipe your saliva quickly, your mother will talk to you again when she sees it.

When Xiaobao heard this, he quickly wiped his mouth with his little hand... Hey, there is no saliva.

He looked at his little hands and then looked at Su's mother.

Mother Su laughed.

Yaya pulled the confused Xiaobao: "No saliva, grandma lied to Xiaobao."

Xiaobao looked at his sister and then at his grandma. He didn't understand why grandma lied to him: "Grandma, that's bad. Xiaobao didn't drool."

"That's right, our little baby is not drooling. Hahaha, come on, okay, grandma will apply another layer of sauce...here."

Xiaobao happily grabbed it and was about to put it into his mouth. After thinking about it, his mother said that the adults should eat it first, so she handed the skewer to Su's mother's mouth: "Grandma, eat it."

"What a good boy. Grandma doesn't eat it, but Xiaobao and sister eat it."

Then he handed it to Yaya's mouth: "Sister, eat it."

"Xiaobao eats first, sister will wait for the next batch."

"Take a bite first."

Yaya took a bite.

When Xiaobao saw that he had eaten everything, it was Xiaobao's turn. He happily squealed, put it in his mouth and started eating happily.

Various kinds of tofu were made to eat, and Su Qingyu also sent people to deliver some to the Governor's Mansion.

Thank him for sending people to help drive away the bandits.

Pei Nian had not had a good winter there, and Yang Bi's unclear attitude towards him also made him feel uneasy. He was so anxious that there were blisters on his mouth.

After receiving the things from Su Qingyu, I couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Those who don't forget the well-diggers are the most worthy of helping. No matter what good comes, don't forget his share.

He handed it over to the kitchen and asked the servants to cook it. When it was served, everyone in the family loved it.

When he ate it, he found that it tasted surprisingly good.

I heard that it was made from soybeans fed to horses, and I was very impressed.

He immediately ordered his servants to collect all the soybeans for horses in the mansion and have them transported to Xingengzhai.

It would be such a waste to give such delicious food to horses. He hasn't had enough yet.

Su Qingnao received the beans, made some more, and shipped some bean sprouts to Pei Nian.

The hundreds of soldiers in the mine all thought that being sent to mine in the middle of winter was a backbreaking job.

But I didn't expect that the food was not bad at all. It was better than the food in the military camp. There is also this fresh food to eat.

Life is also a day of work and a day of rest. I don’t have to go out to train every day, which makes me feel happy.

Eat well, feel happy, and get twice the result with half the effort.

Iron and stone are continuously transported to Xingengzhai.

Su Qingnao called Wan Bosheng over.

His family originally ran a blacksmith shop in the north, making all kinds of iron tools except weapons.

They couldn't survive in the north, and their family didn't know how to farm. When they arrived in Renzhou, they sold themselves out and were bought by Su Qingyu.

Wan Bosheng only had one wife, Wan Fangshi, and one son, Wan Yuanzhi.

Wan Yuanzhi was also sixteen years old and learned blacksmithing from his father.

Su Qingyu had given him some tasks before, and he had done well. The family was loyal and honest. This time the people from the two villages made a lot of arrows, day and night, and never complained a word.

Su Qingyu summoned his father and son, explained to them, and asked him and his son to select some people in the village to make weapons and arrows.

The two nodded in agreement.

"My boss, I'm afraid we still don't have enough manpower."

"I'll send someone to help you."

Su Qingyu explained to the two of them and let them leave.

He turned around and discussed with Ma Xin. Seeing that the stockade was stable, Ma Xin sent the 100 people Ma Fang brought this time to Wan Bosheng.

Su Qingnao also notified the blacksmiths in each village to come and help.

So a team of hundreds of blacksmiths started working.

Many weapons and arrows are made every day.

This winter, the mountains are not peaceful, and Lu Bocheng is not idle either.

Cui Sheng had only one third-grade general under him. If he wanted to pick someone, Cui Sheng would always choose Lu Bocheng first.

Lu Bocheng usually neither fights nor grabs, does not make grudges with others, is a generous person, and also has some extraordinary skills in his hands. What big-headed soldier wouldn't want to fight with a powerful Shangguan?

So they were all willing to surrender to Lu Bocheng.

Even if he takes him out for winter training in the dead of winter and trains him like a dog every day until he panting from exhaustion, he is still willing.

General Lu is right, you sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in war.

Who doesn’t want to live?
