The drawn-out voice made everyone in the room's heart jump to their throat. The old lady stared at Doctor Zhao's mouth, afraid that he would reveal some bad news. Niu Fugui simply closed his eyes and waited to be beaten up by grandma. It was worth it to have eaten the meal and spent money on medical treatment.

"It's not a big problem, it's not serious, this injection will make it better. Don't eat greasy food recently. The child has a weak spleen and stomach. Eat less meat and more vegetarian food to make it easier to digest."

Niu Fugui couldn't stand hearing such words, and immediately opened his eyes wide, but met the faint smile on Doctor Zhao's lips. He was about to refute, but glanced at the anxious grandmother next to him, and after thinking about it, he finally didn't say anything.

Zhao Jincheng took out the longest silver needle, waved it in front of the two people, and inserted it directly into the Zhongwan acupoint. Although it didn't hurt, the visual impact was quite big.

Niu Fugui gritted his teeth and a drop of sweat fell from his head. He must not say that he was faking illness. Now that things have come to this, he must keep the title of grandma's beloved grandson and not let all his efforts go to waste.

The old lady was very regretful. She had just made Fugui eat porridge with meat. She couldn't bear to watch such a scene with needles all over his body for a moment. She went out and told her two daughters-in-law that Niu Fugui should only eat vegetarian food for a period of time, and that the biggest bowl of "tofu" should be left for Fugui in the future.

Hearing what grandma said, Niu Fugui's mouth drooped, and tears instantly filled her eyes. She was so angry that her whole body was shaking slightly. Big tears fell on the kang, and in order to prevent Doctor Zhao from seeing her miserable appearance as a bullied young wife, she even used all her strength to slightly turn sideways.

Zhao Jincheng tried his best to hold back his laughter, and it was very difficult. Finally, he vented his anger for Ni'er. He would go and talk to her tomorrow to see if she would be praised. She never thought that he was someone's master, and it was not right for a disciple to praise his master.

There was a sound of "dong dong dong" in his ears. Zhao Jincheng was still confused and didn't know where the sound came from. He listened calmly for a while and found that it was Niu Fugui's tears. He had never seen a person who could cry to such an extent. The tears could fall so loudly. It was really shocking.

The second son's wife came in at this time. She was stunned for a moment when she saw the scene in front of her, but quickly came to her senses, "Doctor Zhao, can you take my pulse as well? I have been feeling unwell recently and I vomited just now."

Doctor Zhao asked the man to sit down, took her pulse, hesitated for a moment, and clasped his hands together, "Congratulations, you are already one month pregnant."

The second brother walked in directly, his face full of surprise, "Doctor, really? My wife is pregnant again?"

Zhao Jincheng nodded expressionlessly, "Don't eat things you don't usually eat recently, you will feel better."

The old lady came into the house and said, "That's perfect. From now on, let Fugui eat all the 'tofu' that the second son's wife has."

Niu Fugui regretted it very much, and finally realized what it meant to shoot himself in the foot. He swallowed his grievances and looked stubborn. He thought that he would just take advantage of others for a few days, and it would not take long for him to be a brave man again.

The second son's wife felt relieved, as she had thought she had some serious illness. It turned out that she was pregnant. In the next few months, she could openly do less work than usual. She gently stroked her belly, a look of pride appearing on her face.

Today, Ni'er specially asked Aunt Niudan to grind more soy milk, and normal tofu was supplied according to the prescribed quantity. Each of the two restaurants also gave away five gold pieces of tofu.

After trying several times, I finally figured out a way to add the perfect proportions, which retains the taste of tofu as much as possible, while also giving it a unique freshness. The surface is smoother and more delicate, like a beauty's skin, and the color is light green, like the tender buds that just emerge in early spring, which is very attractive.

Niu Li stared at the new tofu, curious about what it tasted like.

I packed the tofu to be sent to the restaurant tomorrow. Fortunately, there is still a small piece left.

Nier pushed the tofu to Niu Li and said, "Try it~"

Niu Li, who couldn't wait any longer, took out the spoon he had prepared in advance, scooped out a piece, put it in the bowl, and brought it to Ni'er, "Sister, eat first~"

Ni'er touched Niu Li's head and took the bowl. Inside was a small square piece of green tofu and a faint fragrance lingered in his nose.

Niu Li gave a piece to his mother and father respectively, and lamented that he had never seen such delicious food before and said that only his sister could think of such an idea.

After finishing his work, he was feeling a little thirsty. The third brother picked up the bowl, tilted his head back, and the bowl went straight down his throat. He smacked his lips, but couldn't taste anything. It was a pity to waste such delicious food. He regretted why he was so anxious and didn't taste it carefully.

Yan Zi picked up the spoon, scooped a small piece into her mouth, looked at the helpless look of the third brother, laughed, scooped another spoonful and put it into the third brother's mouth, "Be careful this time, don't wolf down such precious food."

The third brother nodded, savoring the feeling of the tofu in his mouth.

It was also the first time for Ni'er to eat such a successful sweet potato tofu. It was too smooth and refreshing, and it was not easy to stay in the mouth. At the beginning, it only had a faint fragrance. As time passed, the mouth gradually became cooler, and the fragrance became stronger and stronger. The breath exhaled was tainted with this taste, and the whole person felt refreshed. It should sell well in summer.

After tidying up the house, I lay on the bed, waiting to see if my father would come back with good news the day after tomorrow at noon.

Widow Li has been making mistakes frequently recently. Today, despite all the nice things she said, she still lost an employer. There are not many families in the village who would hire someone to do their laundry. Her income has visibly decreased. She also spent so much money on a useless hairpin. She lay on the kang and hated herself for being so useless. She bit the quilt, clenched her fists and smashed it down hard.

The child next to her gave a warning, which brought Widow Li out of her extreme emotion. She immediately burst into tears. No matter what, life must go on. She will wear it tomorrow and cannot waste the money.

She is so lucky to have a good husband, but her life is so miserable. The way the third brother defended Yan Zi is unforgettable in my mind.

Why didn't she marry the third brother? Even though she couldn't enjoy the life there, at least she had enough food and clothing. She glanced at the sleeping child beside her and tucked in the corner of the quilt that had been kicked off. It was too hard to raise the child by herself, so there had to be a man in the family.

At daybreak, the second son and his wife took a ox cart to the town. His elder brother and sister-in-law had brought back so much money yesterday, and he couldn't have less than them, otherwise his mother would definitely not let him go to the town next time.

The work in the fields definitely cannot be done by one person. I don't have the endless strength like the third brother. I have to be careful when doing business. Fortunately, I asked my brother about the location of the stall yesterday before I went out, and I went there again today.

Nier just planted some sweet osmanthus yesterday and sprinkled it with plant ripening agent. I don’t know how it is growing.
