Pig Killer

Chapter 133

"Soybeans can be made into tofu after being soaked. I wonder what we can do with mung beans after they are ground into powder after being soaked?" Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with her deep, clear eyes.

"I don't know, let's try it tomorrow!" The raccoon slave looked at her eagerly with his eyes like black grapes.

This is what I was waiting for.

"Let's try it tomorrow." Shen Hui'e said to them with a smile.

The next morning, Shen Hui'e got up early and soaked two kilograms of mung beans.

Shen Hui'e began to process the crabs, shrimps and loaches that had been soaked in mud all night.

They were sold out so early that it was already noon.

Shen Hui'e began to grind the soaked mung beans into mung bean milk.

"Green liquid!" said the big tiger in surprise as he looked at the green liquid flowing out of the millstone.

"If mung beans don't secrete green liquid, what color should they secrete?" Shen Hui'e took a wooden spoon and poured the mung beans into the stone mill, adding a spoonful of water.

"It's red!" The big insect looked at her with round eyes and said, "The mung bean soup we cook is red."

Shen Hui'e was stunned when she heard this, and said with a smile, "I really can't explain this." She smiled and said, "Anyway, the green liquid is flowing out of the millstone now."

"What delicious food can be made with this mung bean milk?" Li Nu asked her with curious eyes.

"I don't know about that." The big bug blinked and looked at her and said, "Will it taste as good as tofu?"

"It must be delicious." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with a smile.

While we were chatting, the mung beans were grounded.

"Come on! Filter it first." Shen Hui'e took the linen cloth and filtered the mung bean milk.

"We can use this mung bean dregs to make mung bean cakes." The cat slave looked at her cleverly with his watery eyes.

"That's right! It can't be wasted." Shen Hui'e looked at her with clear and bright eyes.

"Then cook it?" Da Chong said, looking at the mung bean milk in the big iron pot. Suddenly he exclaimed in surprise, "Oh my!"

"What's wrong?" Shen Hui'e was startled.

"I didn't go to Doctor Li to buy gypsum." Da Chong said in a panic and turned away.

"Come back, come back." Shen Hui'e stretched out her hand and called him.

The tiger turned around and looked at his mother and said, "What do you want me to do?"

"Tofu requires gypsum. Who told you that green bean milk needs gypsum?" Shen Hui'e pointed at him and said, "You can't just apply it mechanically. One thing for another."

"Then what should we do?" the big tiger walked back and asked.

"Let's boil it first and see what it will look like after it's dried." Shen Hui'e looked at them with bright eyes and said, "Wait a moment." She added a little salt and baking soda directly into the mung bean milk.

Shen Hui'e rubbed and washed the mung bean dregs with clean water, and poured the mung bean water into the iron pot again.

Shen Hui'e skimmed off the foam on the mung bean milk.

"Okay, let's try cooking now." Shen Hui'e said brightly.

"I'll make the fire." Cheng Donglai lit the fire. The big firewood burned vigorously, and the weather was hot. Soon the mung bean milk began to boil.

Shen Hui'e kept stirring with a wooden spoon to prevent the bottom of the pot from getting burnt.

The green bean milk was cooked into a viscous state. "It's done, it's done." Shen Hui'e lowered her eyes and looked at Cheng Donglai and said, "Turn down the fire, turn down the fire."

Cheng Donglai quickly suppressed his anger and asked, "Is this all right?"

"It's green and shiny and I think it's almost done." Shen Hui'e scooped up a spoonful of mung bean milk, which was now very thick.

Shen Hui'e took down the large iron pot and poured the mung bean milk into the clay pot. "Let's wait patiently to see what it looks like after it cools down."

"Then, mother, do you want to make stew?" Da Chong looked at his mother eagerly and said.

"It's hot, let's not eat it hot." Shen Hui'e said to them with eyes as gentle as jade.

"Then how do we eat it?" Li Nu asked her with wet eyes.

"Cold preparation, just like preparing cold dishes." Shen Hui'e looked at him with her crystal clear eyes and said.

"Then I'll peel the garlic." The big tiger's eyes lit up when he heard this.

"Then I'll peel the green onions." Cheng Donglai looked at them with his dark eyes and walked towards the vegetable garden.

Shen Hui'e crushed the garlic and chopped the green onions that Cheng Donglai had washed.

"Mom, it's already cold outside the clay basin." Li Nu said to his mother while leaning against the clay basin.

"Let me see." Shen Hui'e came over, put her hand on the edge of the clay basin, and found that it was indeed cold, so she opened the lid.

"Wow..." The clear eyes of the raccoon slave were full of green, "Can I touch it?"

"Of course you can." Shen Hui'e handed her the chopsticks and said, "Pick up a piece and try it."

Li Nu took the chopsticks, picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, took a sip, looked at them with bright eyes, and nodded vigorously.

"It's cool and smooth. It'll be better after it's cooled down." The raccoon slave said to them with his eyes sparkling like black grapes.

"Come on, bring a curtain." Shen Hui'e looked up at them and said, holding the clay basin and placing it on the curtain.

Shen Hui'e carefully took the clay basin away, leaving the chewy mung bean jelly on the lid curtain.

"What should we do next?" Da Chong asked impatiently.

Shen Hui'e held a large knife, looked at them and said, "Set the bowls."

"Hey!" Da Chong and the others placed the coarse pottery bowls on the square table.

"Should we cut it into dices or strips?" Shen Hui'e looked at them with her bright eyes and asked, "In other words, should we eat it with a spoon or with chopsticks?"

"Spoon, use a spoon." The raccoon slave said immediately, "Chopsticks are easy to break."

"Then let's cut it into cubes." Shen Hui'e cut the jelly into cubes and put it into a bowl.

"Pour the garlic juice on it." Shen Hui'e said, pointing at the garlic juice on the square table.

Da Chong took a spoon, poured the garlic juice into the bowl and stirred it evenly.

"Eat!" Shen Hui'e picked up the spoon and looked at them and said, scooping some jelly into her mouth, "Hmm!" A satisfied smile spread across her face, "It's cool and refreshing, and it's comfortable to eat. It's perfect for summer."

Each person had two bowls, and half was left.

"Give the rest to my uncle and grandmother." Shen Hui'e cut the jelly into a clean large bowl, then put it into the vegetable basket and covered it with a clean linen cloth. "Tell them how to cook and eat it."

"Hey!" The children responded crisply and walked out of the house carrying their vegetable baskets.

After sending the children away, Shen Hui'e took the mung bean dregs and started making mung bean dregs pancakes.

After eating the mung bean dregs pancake, I felt completely full and my stomach was bulging.

"Mother, we will eat it every day from now on." The cat slave looked at her with watery eyes and said.

"You can eat it often, but not every day." Shen Hui'e looked at them with her moist eyes and said, "Mung beans are cold, and eating too much will hurt your spleen and stomach."

"It's so hot, we can't eat it every day!" said the big tiger dejectedly.

"It's hot outside, but your stomach is full of coldness. The imbalance between inside and outside makes it easy to get sick." Shen Hui'e said to them with deep and penetrating eyes.

"What about the next day?" Li Nu looked at her eagerly and begged.

"Sure!" Shen Hui'e looked at them tenderly and said, "You guys! Don't be greedy for coolness in the summer."

"Mother, don't you like it?" The big tiger said cleverly with its round eyes rolling.

"Hehe..." Shen Hui'e looked at him with clear eyes and said, "For your health, I can bear it."

"No! Mother!" the tiger cried out, "How can I tolerate this!"

Shen Hui'e looked at him with amusement, shook her head and laughed, "As a mother, I can tolerate such a small thing for the sake of my child."

"Stop playing tricks." Shen Hui'e put the remaining bean curd pancakes into a basket and hung it directly into the well to refrigerate.

"Is second sister here?" Tie Feng stood at the gate and shouted loudly towards the yard.

"Here! Here!" Shen Hui'e came hurriedly from the backyard and saw the fourth sister and her husband.

"Why are you here? It's been so hot here. Why don't you come later? Aren't you feeling hot?" Shen Hui'e welcomed them both in and sat down under the loofah vines.

Shen Hui'e handed them the straw fan and said, "What's the matter? You are so anxious and angry."

"The green bean food my second sister made is so delicious." Tie Feng looked at her gratefully and said, "Yun'e was suffering from the hot summer, and she ate like a kitten with a child in her arms. Today, she finally had a good meal."

Others eat and drink well during pregnancy, and gain weight, but this girl loses weight. Shen Hui'e looks her up and down, "Not bad, not bad! Nothing serious. Both the mother and the baby are fine."

"I want to ask? Is this easy to make? Will there be anything to eat tomorrow?" Tie Feng said embarrassedly.

"It's easy!" Shen Hui'e replied with a smile, "But this mung bean powder is cold, you can't eat too much!" She looked at them with deep and penetrating eyes and said, "Don't be greedy for the cold!"

"Yun'e, second sister is right." Tie Feng looked at her with concern.

"But what should I do if I can't eat?" Shen Yun'e looked at them with red eyes, tears falling like pearls from a broken string.

"Don't cry, don't cry." Tie Feng looked at her with concern and fanned her with the fan in his hand.

"Didn't you eat cold noodles?" Shen Hui'e looked at the two of them and said.

"Cold noodles?" Shen Yun'e stopped crying and looked at her with red eyes.

"Noodles are good! They can keep you from getting hungry and are good for you and your children." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with her deep, clear eyes.

"How did you do it?" Tie Feng looked at her anxiously and asked.

Shen Hui'e explained in detail, "It's actually very simple, just like the noodles we usually eat, except that the noodles are cooked and rinsed in hot water, which makes them more refreshing."

"Yun'e, is this okay?" Tie Feng looked at her anxiously and said.

"It's smooth and refreshing to eat this way, and the noodles won't get mushy." Shen Hui'e looked at her with clear eyes and said, "It's not that hot. No matter how you eat this, it won't hurt you or the baby."

"That's great." Tie Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

"Use hot water to blanch the noodles, don't use cold water, and definitely not well water." Shen Hui'e looked at them seriously and said.

"I know, I know." Tie Feng nodded hurriedly.

"You can only eat this jelly every now and then, not every day." Shen Hui'e carefully reminded, "If you like it, you can stir-fry it with onions, ginger and garlic."
