Chapter 188 Making Tofu Skin

The Zhujiu clan is the four closest patrilineal clans.

These four tribes are all related by blood.

They are the prisoner's own clan, the aunt's clan, the sisters' clan and the daughter's clan.

There are also three clans of mothers and two clans of wives.

They are the prisoner's grandfather's family, his grandmother's family, and his aunt's family.

The wife's father's clan and the wife's mother's clan. Added together, there are nine clans in total.

The punishment of "Executing the Nine Tribes" is to completely eliminate the bloodline of this clan and make them completely disappear from the world.

Married daughters are not immune, and even unrelated sons-in-law are not immune.

It can be seen how cruel the punishment of the Nine Tribes is, and how many innocent people will be affected.

The terrible thing is that when the punishment was carried out, no one, old or young, was spared. Even babies in their infancy were killed together.

Since ancient times, the emperor's wrath has laid down millions of corpses and shed blood for thousands of miles.

His Nan family can stand for a hundred years without falling.

One is to rely on members of the clan to restrain each other and supervise each other not to do anything harmful to nature.

Second, the tribesmen are familiar with the law and understand that in this dynasty, they dare not do anything illegal because they cannot afford it.

If one person makes a mistake, it will be a serious matter of annihilating the entire clan!

With so many tribesmen, it is impossible for everyone to hold a high position of authority.

Of course there are poor people.

As the saying goes, those who are blessed cannot share the same blessings. If one member of the direct family makes a mistake, he must bear the responsibility for other members of the family.

He felt sour inside.

Among Nanliang and others were Kong Shangci, Fangshi, Nanning and Nanyan.

Except for Nan Yan, who had lived in the village for a period of time and knew how difficult it was for the people, she and Shui Yunsu had returned to their hometown of Nanning. She knew best that the lives of some officials and relatives were very difficult.

Nanning said: "Marquis Zeng Yong committed the crime of rebellion. Wouldn't it mean that all the nine clans would be imprisoned?"

She couldn't bear to say that she would kill the Nine Clan because it was too cruel.

"Of course, the mistake Zeng Yonghou committed is not a trivial crime, it is a crime of rebellion. Naturally, no one in the nine tribes will be spared." Nan Liang sighed.

In the past, when witchcraft and politics were selling exam questions, Ye Xiaoyun also said that the nine tribes would be killed.

Because Wu Xue Zheng has become a scholar, this matter has been reported for more than two years, and a lot of relevant evidence has been destroyed.

In addition, many people in the court interceded for him, and finally the three clans were executed.

This time, Marquis Zeng Yong not only sold his official position, but also built an underground palace and established himself as king.

Even if all the supplicants were killed, Ye Xiaoyun would not be able to reduce his punishment.

Nan Liang thought of the bloody turmoil behind the capital during this period and said: "Ning'er, Yunsu is back on duty and asked him to come to my place. My husband has something to tell him."

"It's the father. When the husband comes back, the daughter will ask him to come over." Nanning may know what her father wants to say to her husband.

In fact, even if her father didn't tell her, she would mention it to her husband at night.

During this period, many people in Beijing made mistakes, and it was a time when everything was at risk.

When her husband comes back in the evening, she will definitely tell him to write a letter and send it back to his hometown.

Let the old family members be sure to behave themselves and never do anything that harms their husbands.

The atmosphere in the room was very gloomy. Nan Yan yawned and said: "Two days ago, the Chamber of Commerce bought some beef and brought it back to cook hot pot. I didn't have time to eat it. It's cold today, so I went to the kitchen to prepare ingredients for hot pot."

Kong Shangci didn’t want to make his own family feel bad because of other people’s problems.

The younger daughter said to go to the kitchen, and said appropriately: "Go, your eldest sister will go and see with you."

: "Well, I will go to the kitchen with Sanmei to see what ingredients are available." Nanning asked her mother to check for her later while her son was sleeping on his parents' bed.

Get up and go to the kitchen with your sister.

After the Nan Yan sisters left, Mrs. Fang told Nan Liang and his wife that they should strengthen the management of their tribe and servants in the future.

We cannot allow our granddaughters to go into the palace and treat themselves as dishonest, following in the footsteps of certain people and ruining the Nan family's century-old legacy.

Nan Yan didn't know about the conversation in the room.

The two sisters went to the kitchen and saw that the boy who was buying ingredients did not buy beef but bought ten pounds of mutton.

Nan Yan thought about making a big bone soup, boiling the mutton into pieces and putting it in the pot to eat.

There are also vegetables.

Well, vegetables, there are not many vegetables in winter, only radishes and cabbage.

After checking the ingredients, he said feebly: "Sister, are these the only vegetables?"

It's cold in winter and there are no fresh vegetables.

A wealthy family like theirs can buy meat and eat it back home.

Why do you think my little sister thinks she’s useless?

Nanning: "That's all. What do you think Third Sister is going to cook? What ingredients are still missing? If there are still shortages, just ask the boy to buy them."

Nan Yan put her chin on her hand and said, "There is a lot of shortage. I can't even buy what I want from outside.

If we sisters make it now, it will be too late for dinner.

Sister, why don’t you eat hot pot today and eat it tomorrow?”

It's no problem for Nanning, since she doesn't know how to cook hot pot and has never eaten it.

My little sister can eat it anytime.

The two sisters chatted for a long time, and Nanning made a pot of bone soup with her own hands.

Nan Yan asked the housekeeper to carry out half a sack of soybeans, soaked them casually and took them to the stone mill for grinding.

Due to time constraints, Nan Yan wanted to try out whether the soybeans that had not been soaked for a long time could be made into tofu skin.

So I just took a dip casually.

Normally, beans need to be soaked overnight.

Grind the beans, filter the bean dregs with a filter bag, squeeze the filter bag hard, and squeeze out the soy milk.

Then put it in the pot and cook.

The soy milk in the pot will form a thin film at high temperatures.

If a film forms on the surface of the soy milk, take a sharp piece of wood like a kitchen knife and quickly cut the film away from the pot on the side of the pot.

Quickly use your hands again to remove the bean curd skin from the pot and place it on the wooden sticks you had placed earlier to cool.

Nanning didn't expect Douzi to be able to make tofu puffs, but she could also make food like this which she had never seen before.

Nanning was eager to give it a try: "Little sister, let me try it."

Nan Yan glanced at Nan Ning's tender hands and said, "Don't try. It would be bad if my injured brother-in-law comes to trouble me."

Nanning met her sister's playful and teasing eyes, her face turned slightly red and she said angrily: "Your brother-in-law is in charge of heaven and earth, so how can you care whether my hand is injured or not?"

Go ahead and let me try it." After saying that, she pushed Nan Yan away and rolled up her sleeves, ready to scoop up the rotten skin.

Nan Yan said with a smile: "Sister, please be careful not to burn your hands."

She is armed with strength and is very fast when fishing for rotten skin.

Her eldest sister would not touch Miss Yang Chunshui with her fingers. She was really afraid of getting burned.

Nanning stared straight at the soy milk in the pot slowly turning into tofu skin.

Under the instruction of my sister, I quickly fished out the rotten skin.

Nanning then fished out two pieces and said with great interest: "Little sister, tell me how to cook and eat this food."

Nan Yan recalled the various ways of making bean curd skin in later generations and said: "It can be eaten cold, stir-fried or boiled. I took out a few pieces of tofu skin and let them cool down. I will make a plate of them cold and give them to grandma and my parents to taste. How do they taste?"

"

"Okay, I'll see how you accompany me."

Let the waiter sit next to the two sisters and continue to fish out the tofu skin according to their movements.

Nan Yan took off five pieces of tofu skin that had cooled down, mixed them with seasonings at home, and brought them to her parents' yard to let her parents taste the fresh food they had just made.

I had been chatting with Ms. Fang about Kong Shangci in the room, when I saw my two daughters bringing food over and said, "Hey, what did you two sisters do to eat?"

"Mom, this is the tofu skin made by Third Sister." Then he quickly told Kong Shangci and Fang how they made the tofu skin from beans.

Kong Shangci said in disbelief: "Yan'er, this food is made of beans."

"Yes, my eldest sister and I went to the kitchen to look at the ingredients, but there were no vegetables at all.
