132. The Stallion Man Who Got a Sudden Opportunity

"Amazing, amazing, this cooking skill is amazing."

The daughter was shy, Bai Jiandong took a sip of beer poured by his wife, and then took a bite of pork head meat, and slapped the table with joy.

"Just now, I just smelled the smell and felt that the stewed taste was similar, but when I really ate it, I felt that my expectations were not enough. I have lived for more than 40 years, and this is the first time I have eaten such delicious pork head meat."

The conditions of the Bai family are not bad. The elders on both sides of the husband and wife are in good health. In addition, they have pensions and do not need much support from their children. In addition, they have four or five brothers and sisters, so there are many people to share the burden if something happens. Therefore, when they worked in the factory before, the small family of two working people saved a lot of money, unlike the Yan family who were in debt everywhere. Speaking of which, a lot of the money used by the Yan family to buy a house was borrowed from the Bai family.

Bai Jiandong's hobby is to drink some wine, no matter beer or white wine or rice wine, anyway, he must drink a little every day when eating. He is a regular customer of several delicatessens in the nearby vegetable market, and his family must have those side dishes to go with wine.

After eating the braised food brought by Yan Chu, and then taking a sip of beer, Bai Jiandong felt that his own beer, which cost 3.5 yuan a bottle, was not worthy of the taste of the braised food, and it was a waste of the good meat.

"Wife, quickly bring me my old Huadiao, this meat must be paired with good wine."

Bai Jiandong picked up another piece of pork cheek meat, which was crunchy and more fragrant the more he chewed it, and he was reluctant to swallow it down his throat.

"You are the only one who is troublesome." Jiang Yahong glanced at her man, "Xiao Chu, your uncle doesn't drink this beer, auntie will drink with you."

Speaking of it, Yan Chu is also an 18-year-old boy, and it is normal to drink some beer. Anyway, when the two families ate together in the past, the men in the family, including Yan Chu, would drink, and even the women would have a glass.

"Aunt, I've eaten. These are specially sent to you."

Yan Chu waved his hand. It was almost ten o'clock. It was embarrassing to stay at the Bai family.

"Why are you being polite to us? Just talk to Lingling." Jiang Yahong went back to the kitchen to get Lao Huadiao for her husband. She took three more bowls. She and Yan Chu drank beer, and Bai Ling had a bowl of juice.

"Are there any good movies recently? You young people shouldn't stay at home every day. Go out more. Didn't they say on TV that you can learn more effectively when you are in a good mood. Studying too hard is not a good idea."

The problem of premature love that other parents strictly guard against is not a problem in the Yan family and the Bai family.

When the love affair between Yan Chu and Bai Ling was spread in the class, the teacher called the parents of both parties to the school as if they were facing a great enemy. However, Yan Chu's parents and Bai Ling's parents persuaded the teacher, saying that the children of their two families had been engaged since childhood. The two children were well-behaved and would not do things they should not do. However, they had been good at playing since childhood. You can't stop them from playing just because they have grown up. Besides, the parents are happy to see the two children find a partner. First, it did not delay their studies, and second, it did not cause any bad influence. The teacher should turn a blind eye and not take it to heart.

In the end, it was not the teacher who criticized and educated Yan Chu and Bai Ling, but was almost brainwashed by the adults on both sides.

Jiang Yahong felt that she was quite open-minded. You said that in their era, people had already found a partner at the age of 17 or 18, and there were many people who got married and had children at the age of 20. On the contrary, the times have progressed, and children at the age of 17 or 18 are not allowed to find a partner. This is a problem with thinking.

However, Jiang Yahong felt that the school was strict, and there was a reason for it. After all, children nowadays are as smart as monkeys. Who knows that they will eat the forbidden fruit if they make a mistake? This kind of thing can be big or small, and it is right to be strict.

So when the teacher called their parents over, Jiang Yahong didn't think the teacher was meddling, but felt that the teacher was quite responsible. As long as they communicated and talked it out, there would be no problem.

"I heard from my classmates that there seems to be a new set of textbooks recently, which is quite targeted for mathematics. Lingling and I are not very good at mathematics. Why don't we go to the bookstore near our home tomorrow to find out if there is any for sale."

Yan Chu's words made his future mother-in-law happy. No matter how open-minded the parents are, they still attach importance to their children's studies. Yan Chu and Bai Ling's academic performance is pretty good, and they have a good chance of being admitted to undergraduate studies. Otherwise, both parents would not have such a relaxed and happy attitude now.

"Yes, yes."

Jiang Yahong nodded repeatedly and picked up a pig ear for her daughter with chopsticks: "Mom will get you money later. Go to the bookstore with Xiaochu to read books tomorrow."

"Ouch!"

Bai Ling was about to eat the pig ear her mother picked up for her when she heard her mother's sudden exclamation.

"Did your family braise this braised meat?"

Jiang Yahong covered her mouth and spoke unclearly. She didn't dare to open her mouth too wide, for she was afraid that the fragrance in her mouth would jump out as she spoke. It was too fragrant, and the taste was indescribable.

She was not a woman who had high requirements for the taste of food, but even with such a not very sensitive tongue, she could taste that the braised food on this plate was not ordinary, with rich meat fragrance and just the right ratio of spices. Every bite could have a new aftertaste.

She was eating a piece of pork meat. Usually, in braised food, the braised taste of this part would be a bit dry, and it would not taste as good as the fat part, nor as chewy as the pig head meat.

Jiang Yahong originally wanted to eat these large pieces of meat herself and leave the good parts for her husband and daughter, but once she took a bite, she realized that she was wrong.

This is not just dry and tasteless, it is simply too delicious. The more you chew, the more delicious it is, and you can't bear to swallow it.

Pork can also be made so delicious? Thinking about her cooking skills, Jiang Yahong felt that her life had been in vain.

"My mother and I thought about it together. Don't we think the food in the delicatessen is too expensive?" Yan Chu didn't say anything about the recipe.

"Absolutely absolutely."

Jiang Yahong gave a thumbs up repeatedly, then picked up her husband's wine bowl and took a sip of his Huadiao. Like Bai Jiandong, she suddenly felt that the cheap beer wholesale from her small supermarket was not worthy of the braised flavor.

Bai Ling was already trembling a little when she smelled the fragrance in her room. However, a little girl of this age is about to look good. She was still a little resistant to the big fat in her heart, but now her parents are showing it. She was so amazed that she couldn't help but pick a piece of pig ear and put it in her mouth.

The pork ear bone is very crispy, and the stewed pork skin is delicious and slightly spicy, stimulating the taste buds.

One piece, two pieces, Bai Ling couldn't help but move her chopsticks faster.

The plate of braised food was quickly wiped out by the Bai family's struggle. Yan Chu only drank half a glass of beer in front of him and didn't move a chopstick.

"too delicious."

Jiang Yahong was very flexible. She put down her chopsticks and said to Yan Chu: "I can guarantee you that if your parents switch to selling this braised food, your family will definitely make a fortune. If nothing else, the smell of the braised food cooked in your home just now will probably make you rich." We have already attracted most of the gluttons in our community. If we choose a shop, we will put the braised pot near the window and fan it so that people from the whole street can smell the smell and come to buy it. "

Jiang Yahong and Jin Xiujuan have been good sisters for half their lives, the kind that are closer than real sisters. Previously, she wanted to lend money to Jin Xiujuan so that the couple could rent a small shop and sell breakfast seriously. Jin Xiujuan was timid and felt that the cost It was added that if the income did not increase, she might be allocated the capital and refused. This time, Jin Xiujuan could not help but be willful. She would encourage the other party to open the braised food shop no matter what.

"Auntie, do you think it's possible to open a shop?"

Yan Chu actually had this purpose when he came here this time. The Yan family's parents were too timid and asked them to think about opening a store. The day lily was probably cold, but the Aunt Hong in front of him was different. She was a more courageous person. Moreover, her words are more effective than her own. As long as the Bai family and his wife take action, his parents will most likely be persuaded to open a braised food shop.

"Sure, there is a more reliable deal than this."

After Bai Jiandong took the last sip of wine, he patted his chest and said, "I will go to your parents early tomorrow morning to talk about it. This is such a great idea."

On the one hand, he really hopes that his good brother's family can improve his life. On the other hand, Bai Jiandong feels that after eating such delicious braised food, it will be boring to eat food from the delicatessens in the vegetable market in the future. This day should be How difficult it is.

It would be different if the Yan family started to open a shop selling braised food. He would not eat from his brother's house for free. He would pay every meal. Isn't the money earned just for spending? No matter what, he should make himself happy with his food.

It was agreed that the Bai family and his wife would come to work as lobbyists tomorrow. Yan Chu went home with a plate that had been wiped clean even with the soup juice left over from the steamed buns that Bai Jiandong had eaten for dinner.

"Lingling, I will come find you at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. Then we will go to the bookstore together."

Before Yan Chu left, he turned around and said to Bai Ling. The little girl was getting up to see him off, and they almost bumped into each other.

"Okay, I must have woken up at that point." Bai Ling nodded. After that little shy period, she was still a generous little girl.

Young people's love should be in a lovely place like a bookstore.

*****

"Did you smell that aroma last night? My little grandson screamed for half the night. I ordered him his favorite chicken, Deken's crispy chicken drumsticks. He took one bite and threw it on the ground, saying it didn't smell like that. Son, don’t eat that disgusting thing. My son was so angry that he took off his pants and beat him.”

The old man who was exercising in the garden of the community talked about something related to the pot of braised meat made by the Yan family today.

"Who doesn't? My daughter ordered takeout in the middle of the night last night, and she didn't eat honestly. She opened the window and took a breath outside, and took a bite of barbecue, as if she was sick, but speaking of it, the taste was indeed It smells so good. I don’t know which family is making the food. If they sell it, I really want to buy one.”

"My wife and I didn't want to turn on the air conditioner last night and opened the windows for ventilation. Because of the smell, we had to lock the windows again and turn on the air conditioner, and then we managed to sleep."

The old men and women were talking about it, and finally someone who knew what made the food so fragrant spoke up, that is, Uncle Jiang, who lived in the same building as the Yan family and was lucky enough to be given a pot of braised food.

"Don't you know? It's the little Yan family downstairs in my building. It's Technician Yan's son, the one who succeeded him as a welder in the factory."

Uncle Jiang said, "Their family made a pot of braised meat last night, and they even sent it to my house in the middle of the night. The taste, wow, I have never eaten such delicious meat in my life."

The old man described in detail what the meat looked like, how fragrant it was, and how soft and glutinous the pig's trotters were. It was so chewy that even the old men and women around him swallowed their saliva.

"Isn't it just braised meat? Is it as good as you said?"

Some people questioned Uncle Jiang's words, thinking that he might have exaggerated.

"Hey, tell me, have you ever smelled a marinade that was so fragrant that it could wake people up from their sleep?"

Uncle Jiang's words stumped all those who doubted. Other braised foods are delicious, but the aroma has never been so tempting that people feel they have to eat them. It is conceivable that if the taste of that thing is really as good as its aroma, it will be so tempting.

"It's a pity that several people in the family licked all the soup last night. Otherwise, cook a bowl of noodles now and pour a spoonful of braised sauce on it. The taste..."

The scene described by Uncle Jiang made the old man and the old lady present swallow their saliva again. Sniffing the faint aroma of braised meat in the garden, they felt even hungrier.

Yan Zhonghua and Jin Xiujuan only set up the stall until nine o'clock today and hurried home.

In fact, it is around nine o'clock now. The son has an appointment with Bai Ling to go to the bookstore later, and no one is watching the braised food at home.

The gluttony in the stomach was slightly relieved last night, but the couple is still waiting to eat more flavorful braised food. It doesn't seem so unacceptable to miss an hour of business for this.

When they got home, Yan Chu had been gone for a while. The couple quickly turned on the stove again and let the pot of braised food cook slowly.

According to their son's instructions, if he didn't come back before eleven o'clock, they would have to change a bag of spices for the braised food in the pot.

Today, Jin Xiujuan went to buy some ingredients to stew in the pot and added new broth. The original bag of spices was probably no longer tasty, so they had to change it again when the time came.

Smelling the smell coming out of the pot, Jin Xiujuan and Yan Zhonghua were very excited.

"Xiujuan, you are finally back."

The iron gate of the Yan family fence was not closed tightly, and several elderly people pushed the door in. Most of them had eaten the braised food sent by the Yan family last night. The leader was Grandpa Jiang, followed by several elderly people who were not familiar with the Yan family but lived in the same old community.

"Uncle Jiang, what are you doing?"

Yan Zhonghua was a little confused about their purpose.

"It's the braised food you sent last night. It's so delicious. My grandson remembered it after eating it. He wanted to eat it today. He would cry if I didn't give it to him. I was thinking, do you have more at home? I'll buy it for you."

"Yes, the fragrance is so tempting. I was thinking about it all night last night. If you have more, buy some for me. I'll pay for it."

The words of the old people caught Yan Zhonghua and Jin Xiujuan off guard. They didn't expect that these old people came for the braised food at home.

"We are all elders. Why talk about money? I'll go and serve you some."

Jin Xiujuan's mind didn't turn around for a while. Although she felt a little distressed, she thought that they were close neighbors and it was okay to give some braised meat.

"No, how can I take it for free."

Uncle Jiang refused firmly. The meal last night was a favor between neighbors. If he was shameless and took it for free, he would be shameless.

The Yan family had a hard time. It was not easy to get better in recent years, but this was also earned by Yan Zhonghua and his wife from selling breakfast early in the morning and late at night. It was all hard-earned money.

These retired old men and women have money but nowhere to spend it, so why do they need to take advantage of others?

As soon as the old man opened his mouth, those old men and women who were originally happy about getting free meat were too embarrassed to nod and say anything. They all paid and asked Jin Xiujuan to sell it according to the market price.

When other people in the community heard the news and rushed to the Yan family, they couldn't buy anything. One by one, they asked Jin Xiujuan to go to the vegetable market to buy meat and try to stew more pots so that they could sell it to them.

Because they didn't buy it, and heard those who bought the braised food describe how good it tasted, they also drove up the price. After a while, each braised food was six or seven yuan more expensive than the ones sold outside.

This is still among the generally savvy and frugal elderly group. If it is among those young people who have no concept and no restraint in spending money, it is possible to multiply it several times.

Jin Xiujuan and Yan Zhonghua were dazed and took the money from home to the market to buy a bunch of ingredients. Then they washed them and put them into the marinade at different times according to their son's teaching. When everything was done, they realized what they had just done.

The two of them bought almost all the pig's trotters and pork in the market, and also bought a lot of good ingredients for spicy marinade such as duck intestines and yellow throat.

Seeing that one pot could not hold the ingredients piled up in the kitchen, the couple worried that they had done something stupid.

*****

"This textbook is very good, and the questions on it are very targeted."

Yan Chu didn't know that his parents in this world had already started a business when he was not at home. He and Bai Ling stood in front of the bookshelf in the bookstore, with a book of college entrance examination strategies in front of them.

As a man who has experienced n college entrance examinations and has rich test experience, he selected exercises for Bai Ling in a very targeted way.

Today, Bai Ling was still dressed up very seriously, with a white shirt and a gray plaid pleated skirt, and her long hair was scattered behind her. She was very bookish and a clean and gentle soft girl.

She took off her black-framed glasses and put on contact lenses that she was not used to wearing. Before going out, she did not forget to apply lip balm to herself to make her lips look plump and shiny.

The two of them were now in a state where both parents tacitly agreed, but neither side had broken the window paper. In front of the person she liked, Bai Ling would of course show her best side.

But she thought that she had indeed overestimated this idiot. At this age, who would read seriously under the pretext of buying books? He was the only one who really chose the exercise book.

She wanted to be angry, but she couldn't get angry at that face. She didn't want to be angry, but she couldn't help but feel a little anxious when she saw that he was obsessed with studying and had no interest in love.

"Hehe——"

When Yan Chu was helping Bai Ling choose exercises, a sneer came from the corner of the bookstore.

A little girl wearing ripped jeans, a tank top showing her small waist, permed hair and nose studs, who looked like a bad girl, walked towards the two of them.

"Girl, how can you find a partner with your reserved appearance, especially when the one you like is a fool who has not yet opened his mind."

Long Ruofei just went into this small bookstore to avoid the people her father sent to follow her. Unexpectedly, she actually watched a love affair between a boy and a girl.

Speaking of which, she felt an inexplicable liking for the male protagonist in this early love affair.

However, Long Ruofei was not willing to have a man who was already in a relationship, which was a pity that she rarely liked a man.

The fool she mentioned was naturally Yan Chu, and the reserved girl was undoubtedly Bai Ling.

If she hadn't spoken, Yan Chu would not have noticed that Long Ruofei was actually here.

"Forget it, I won't talk to you little brats. If you want to fall in love, just read more textbooks." She casually stuffed the novel she had just read to relieve her boredom into Bai Ling's hand, then whistled and left in a swagger.

The people who had just pursued her had gone far away, and she didn't have to stay in this small bookstore and smell the sour smell of other people's love.

Even in the developed modern world, Long Ruofei's strange clothes would easily attract other people's attention, especially the exposed white and slender waist. Some men with weak willpower couldn't help but stare at her for several more times.

"Are you Miss Long?"

As she was walking, a man suddenly stood in front of her and stretched out his hand to her like a gentleman.

Zhang Zifan didn't expect that fate would be so coincidental that he would meet one of the original male protagonist's harems, the gangster lady Long Ruofei, whom he had been investigating for several days.

Is God really standing in front of him now?

Who is this idiot?

Long Ruofei glanced at him, complained in her heart, and then walked around him without thinking and wanted to leave.

"Miss Long, I--"

Zhang Zifan wanted to stop Long Ruofei, but was thrown over the shoulder by the irritable lady and fell heavily to the ground.

He was in pain immediately and let out a shrill scream. The people around him stopped to watch the excitement, and no one wanted to lend a hand.

Long Ruofei didn't care how she threw the man, clapped her hands, turned around and left.

Zhang Zifan gritted his teeth and watched Long Ruofei leave. He was not angry. This was a rose with thorns. He was too impatient. When the other party discovered his ability, he would be impressed by him and feel guilty for what he did today.

He stood up again with difficulty. Fortunately, except for the pain in every part of his body, there was nothing wrong.

Zhang Zifan rubbed his buttocks and shoulders. The most important thing now was to pick up bargains quickly. At least he had to make a name for himself in the antique circle.

A man should establish a career before starting a family. When he has his own career, will women be far behind?

He smiled complacently. The person who just witnessed him chatting up a beautiful woman and was beaten by the beautiful woman saw his complacent smile, muttered a fool, and then hurriedly walked around him, fearing that he would be infected with stupidity.

Zhang Zifan didn't care about those ordinary people. He raised his head proudly and walked towards the antique street.

Oh, my butt really hurts.
