Chapter 32 Meat and wine


Chapter 32 Wine and Meat

There is only one small shop in Chenwangzhuang, opened by a cripple named Cui.

Everyday tobacco and alcohol department stores are basically all available.

Whenever the villagers in Chenwangzhuang have something to buy, they first go to Cui Laizi’s canteen to ask if it is available.

If there is no more, go to the county seat.

When Liu Nier came back from buying cigarettes, Chen Ling was killing fish, and the aroma of pheasant stewed in the casserole was already wafting out.

Wang Jusheng added two pieces of firewood from time to time and swallowed quietly.

"Uncle Jusheng, let me give you a cigarette."

Liu Nier walked over with a flashlight under her arm and handed the cigarette to Wang Jusheng.

Wang Jusheng took the cigarette and suddenly saw the two sticks in Liu Nier's hand, and he immediately let out a hey.

"Why did you buy the toffee? Cui Zizi made it at home. It's not worth it. You have to buy the toffee. That one is delicious."

"I bought the toffee. I bought it for a dime. Two pieces, I met Xizi on the road and gave it to Xizi.”

“This syrup was given by the lame uncle.”

Liu Nier sniffed and stirred the syrup.

“Oh, brother Xian, your six little girls are fine. At such a young age, you already know how to give things to the little girl!”

Wang Jusheng laughed when he heard it and couldn't help joking.

Wang Lixian was helping Chen Ling kill fish. Hearing this, he raised his head and glared at Liu Nier.

Liu Nier was most afraid of his father, and was immediately frightened.

“I didn’t.”

“It was Xizi who was scolded by her aunt again. She didn’t dare to go home and was crying outside the door. I saw how pitiful she was, so I gave her the toffee All for her to eat.”

Liu Nier said with a blushing face.

"What? Xizi didn't dare to go home after being scolded. It's so dark outside, where is she?"

Chen Ling stood up as soon as he heard this.

He had an impression of Xizi, a little girl who often wore a dirty red cotton-padded jacket and had her hair braided. She was usually timid and did not dare to speak.

Even if Wang Susu complimented her a few times, she was shy and was a very introverted little girl.

"Fugui."

Wang Jusheng stopped him. Seeing that he was worried, he said: "This matter is beyond your control. That family is more unreasonable than anyone else. Don't make you look bad when the time comes. ."

This made Chen Ling look a little unhappy: "You can't just ignore it, right? It's so late and the little girl doesn't dare to go home. What should I do if a wolf enters the village?"
Chenwangzhuang is surrounded by mountains on three sides. When there are few prey in spring and winter, wolves often enter the village. This is no joke.

"It's okay, Youxizi's grandfather is here. The old man is more worried about his granddaughter than you."

Wang Lixian cleaned the fish in his hand and said without raising his head: "Just listen to Ju Sheng and don't worry about it."

When even Wang Lixian said this, Chen Ling was a little confused.

But he knew there must be a problem here.

While he was wondering, Wang Susu pulled him aside and whispered for a while.

Only then did Chen Ling know what was going on.

It turns out that Xizi is an abandoned child.

He was picked up by Chen Sangui, an old man from the east of the village, and adopted him.

It took a lot of effort to raise this child from over two years old to six years old.

Chen Sangui has regarded Xizi as his granddaughter.

It just so happened that his son and his daughter-in-law had been married for almost ten years and could not have children.

I just want to adopt Xizi as my daughter.

When Chen Sangui heard this, it was too late to be happy. How could he not agree?

It's a pity that Chen Sangui's daughter-in-law is not her biological child, and she is a girl. If she does anything not to her liking, Chen Sangui's daughter-in-law will beat or scold her.

Xi Zi was frightened all day long and did not dare to speak too loudly. She might as well follow Chen Sangui and enjoy the blessings.

But outsiders can’t say anything or persuade her, otherwise Chen Sangui’s daughter-in-law will not be easy to mess with.

Sister-in-law Xiuying from the north of the village is a well-known good old lady, with a soft heart and a kind heart. When she saw that Xizi was pitiful, she said a few words of justice.

As a result, Chen Sangui's daughter-in-law was so angry that she went crazy. She blocked the door of Xiuying's sister-in-law's house and cursed her for a long time. Chen Sangui's son even threw stones into the well.

Wang Lixian also tried to persuade him a few times, but his face was almost scratched by the woman. Now outsiders didn't dare to say anything more.

However, it was impossible for Chen Sangui not to know about the situation.

But Xizi was adopted by his son and daughter-in-law, and the formalities were completed. Even if he took Xizi back to live with him, how many days would he be able to live there?

Besides, he is old and has only a few days to make a living. In the future, he will have to rely on his son and daughter-in-law to support Xizi.

I have no choice but to run to my son’s house two or three times a day for fear that my granddaughter will be wronged.

"Alas..."

Chen Ling sighed, feeling helpless.

Fortunately, Xizi still has his grandfather, Chen Sangui, in charge, otherwise it would be difficult for outsiders to help him with such adoptive parents.

"Uncle Fugui, I told Xizi that I will take her to see the puppies tomorrow..."

Liu Nier said with a smile.

"Okay, come on."

"Come here, uncle will prepare delicious food for you."

Chen Ling smiled again and began to cook the remaining two dishes.

I have to say that after Chen Ling had Sun Moon Cave, his cooking skills skyrocketed.

Maybe it’s because with the addition of the things in the cave, the rice will taste very good, which makes his confidence grow day by day.

Not only has the cooking technique improved, but the cooking speed has also become very fast.

The braised rabbit meat and sweet and sour carp were cooked in a pot very quickly, and the stewed pheasant mushrooms were also stewed and delicious.

As soon as I opened the lid of the casserole, the aroma penetrated directly into my nose.

“It smells so good, so rich!”

“Let me have a taste...”

Wang Jusheng swallowed his saliva crazily, and his stomach couldn’t help but growl. .

Liu Nier was drooling, her nose was twitching, and she chewed the wooden stick used to stir the sugar syrup with teeth marks all over it, as if the wooden stick was a chicken leg.

Upon seeing this, Chen Ling hurriedly greeted everyone to start eating.

“Come here, Liu Ni’er, this chicken leg belongs to you!”

“It smells so rich and rich! It smells so good!”

“I can’t believe that the food you cook is so good. Eat!”

The group of them ate happily, but almost everyone in the east end of the village, near Chen Ling’s house, was cursing.

It's meal time at this time, my dear, the aroma wafted over and penetrated into my nose, and the thick steamed buns and millet porridge in my hands suddenly lost their fragrance.

Damn it, what kind of prodigal son is making stewed meat? It’s so fragrant that it will bring out the greedy ones.

Qin Dongmei, who is across the door, is having dinner with her daughter and sister. There are scrambled eggs, vegetables and white-flour steamed buns on the table. This is much better than other families.

But after smelling the fragrance, Qin Dongmei immediately knew where it came from.

“Eat, eat, eat, this son of a bitch knows how to eat. He keeps getting meat every day, why don’t you eat him to death!”

"Gurgling."

Chen Ling turned on the light in the yard and placed the steaming casserole on the stone table with a wet cloth.

Pheasant stewed with mushrooms, braised rabbit, sweet and sour carp.

Good guy, not only the aroma is overflowing, but also the color, fragrance and flavor.

“Brother Xian, use your chopsticks!”

"Drink your food, don't worry about me..."

"Liu Ni'er, come here and get some steamed buns. Eating just meat will make you upset at night."

Eat vegetables, drink wine, it's hot Meat dishes and spicy wine go into the stomach together, which is called a feeling of comfort.

Have fun! So exciting!

"Fugui, give me another steamed bun!"

"Your cooking is so delicious, I want to come to your house every day to eat..."

Wang Jusheng's face turned red from drinking, but he kept using his chopsticks and cooked four big steamed buns in a row. I asked Chen Ling again.

Liu Nier was stunned.

Uncle Jusheng is so awesome, even the pigs in the pig pen are so edible.
