Hearing this, Mo Shu was still a little apprehensive.The fact that she lived in the Cold Incense Pavilion was already known to the people of the Jin State Mansion.I don't know what the Duchess of Jin thinks Mo Shu herself thinks it is really inappropriate to live in the Cold Fragrance Pavilion, this courtyard was originally built for the Duchess of Jin Guo, she heard the news, even if she has a good temperament, she will be unhappy Mo Shu is a little worried.Thinking about things, she unconsciously came to the salt spring, and Mo Shu had to let go of the matter first, cheer up and prepare to make tofu.Overnight, the wall had been repaired outside the temporary barrier, and Zhuang Ding, who was still doing the finishing chores, saw the two coming and greeted each other.Especially when he saw Mo Shu, he couldn't help but quietly glance at it a few more times.This is the only one among many women who has won the favor of the Hou Ye, and he also lives in the Leng Xiang Pavilion, which must be outstanding.Mo Shu smiled, ignoring these inquiring glances: who knows what she got in exchange for boiling salt, and signed the deed of sale, Xiao Jing also smiled and nodded at these Zhuang Ding.These villagers also knew the severity, didn't inquire, and after doing the rest of the things, they packed up their tools and went back to the villa.Mo Shu and Xiao Jing walked in through the open door on the wall.It was Lu Si who was guarding the door, he seemed to be unhappy, but when he saw Mo Shu, he greeted him with a very loud smile: "Mo girl" The corner of Xiao Jing's lips twitched: "You don't have to shout so loudly" Lu Si still smiled very honestly, and said: "I'm not worried that Miss Mo won't hear it, Miss Mo didn't come over to cook that tofu today, remember to leave some for me." ”Mo Shu knew that Lu Si seemed to be honest and honest, but if he could become Wu Ziheng's guard, he couldn't be underestimated, so he smiled at the moment: "Okay." ”Xiao Jing was already anxious to eat bean curd, so he picked up Mo Shu and walked inside.I don't know if Lu Yi and the others worked all night last night.There were already several bags of salt on the side, neatly stacked, with stones and planks raised at the bottom, and covered with tarpaulin.Mo Shu took a closer look, and there were six bags.No wonder he saw Lu Si just now, his eyes were bloodshot.Mo Shu walked over and saw it in the early morning sun.The guards were sweating and working.A few large pots are cooked on the fire.There are people scooping water by the salt spring, some people are mixing brine, and some people are boiling salt.There are also a few transporting firewood.The wood has already been chopped, so it needs to be brought in from outside the wall.Wu Ziheng stood beside him with his hands in his hands, dressed in green clothes, and his posture was like a pine.No matter how you look at it, it is described as handsome and graceful.Xiao Jing spoke first.Crisp said: "Childe" Seeing this, Mo Shu also stepped forward, bowed and saluted: "Master Hou." ”Wu Ziheng nodded in courtesy.After taking a look at the situation of boiling salt over there, Mo Shu said again: "Master Hou."
This salt will not be boiled for a while and a half, so a few guards will have to pay attention to rest. ”But he heard Wu Ziheng say leisurely: "Salt is naturally not boiled, but the shortage of salt in the northwest is imminent."
Even though I commanded them not to boil salt at night, they remembered it.I can't sleep. ”Mo Shu couldn't, thought about it and said, "I think that even if this salt spring is dug up, the brine that comes out is not enough for a few people to keep scooping."
In this case, if you want to boil salt day and night, it is better to divide these guards into two groups and take turns to work and rest, otherwise you will not be able to boil salt when you are tired. ”Wu Ziheng looked at Lu Twelve, who was standing next to him, and said, "Hearing Miss Mo's words, I will do this for today's rest and work." ”Lu Twelve arched his hand and replied, "No." ”Lu San, who was holding firewood next to him, said to Mo Shu: "Miss Mo didn't say what to call it, bean juice is made" Xiao Jing clapped his hands next to him and smiled: "It's bean curd" Mo Shu smiled: "It's called tofu, and there is a snack with a lot of water, it's called tofu flower, also called bean curd." ”Xiao Jing grinned and said: "It's delicious anyway" Mo Shu nodded with a smile, and asked Lu San again: "The things I need are ready" Lu San nodded and said: "It's ready, just put it over there, and the pot has been set up."
Miss Mo, will you start cooking now?"
In fact, Mo Shu was not very sure, she nodded and said, "Let's start, try it." ”Although it is said to be an attempt, everyone is now more confident in Mo Shu, especially Xiaojing, who admires her quite much.Later generations of tofu were divided into southern tofu and northern tofu.Among them, gypsum is mostly used in the south to solidify the soybean milk into tofu, so this is called southern tofu, while in the north, salt brine is mostly used, that is, the water that remains in the salt pond after boiling salt from seawater or brine.This salt brine, like gypsum, can make the soybean juice coagulate into glue and precipitate water.It's just that the northern tofu condensed by the salt brine is tougher, while the southern tofu made of gypsum is soft, and many ingredients in the salt brine are actually impurities in the brine, and eating too much is not good for people.So this time, Moshu is going to use gypsum to order tofu.Many natural salt ponds and salt wells are associated with gypsum, and there is also one next to this salt spring.In fact, even if there is no here, it doesn't matter, gypsum can be used in traditional Chinese medicine.Gypsum is pungent, sweet, and cold; It can remove annoyance and quench thirst, clear heat and detoxify, relieve fire, relieve muscle and clear heat, etc., and treat fever and strong fever, upset and dizzy, crazy delirium, heat stroke and sweating, stomach fire headache, toothache, mouth and tongue sores, and lung heat and shortness of breath and so on.After calcining with fire, external application can also generate muscle sores, treat carbuncle sores, and burn with soup fire.After Wu Ziheng heard Mo Shu say that he used gypsum to order tofu, he deliberately went to check the medical book, and after finding that it should be edible, he naturally didn't say much.Maybe after this tofu comes out, someone will be able to eat the gypsum inside.At that time, some people will follow suit, and it may not be said.Mo Shu walked over and put the raw soy milk that had already been ground into the pot, Lu San had already started to light the fire, she checked the gypsum slurry next to her, and found that it was ground into powder after roasting and then mixed with water, and it was very delicately grinded, obviously she had worked hard, and nodded with satisfaction.Soon, the soybean milk in the pot began to foam, Mo Shu took a spoon to clean up the foam little by little, saw that the soy milk was boiling, scooped it into the small pot next to it, added a little gypsum slurry and stirred well.Mo Shu asked Lu San to turn off the heat first and take the extra soy milk in the cauldron to boil salt.Xiaojing leaned over happily and asked, "Sister Mo, is this the bean curd" Then she glanced at the soy milk in the small pot, and wondered: "This is no different from bean juice" As she was saying, she suddenly exclaimed in surprise: "This bean juice is clumped like ice" Mo Shu smiled: "Yes, after the clumping, it is bean curd." ”Xiao Jing clapped his hands excitedly and said with a smile: "It turns out that the bean curd is cooked like this" As he spoke, the bean juice had slowly condensed, and Mo Shu was relatively fast at the bean curd, so it looked quite good
