Their greatest happiness is that their children enjoy happiness! So every time I go home, I accompany my parents to live in the tulou where I was born and witnessed my growth, living a life without time or noise! Every holiday, my mother always likes to make tofu herself, and the beans are also grown by my mother herself. It is a pure natural and green food!
