The soup pot made of two bamboo rats, with Yanglin fat wine, cost Wang Mingyuan a total of fifteen yuan.

It's just that with that gambling contract, even Li Haibo and Wang Tieling couldn't eat happily.

Eating a meal and making a bet is something that no one expected.

The old man Bai Qidong has his own pride, after all, he has been a chef for many years, and his apprentices have brought out a lot, and he is used to enjoying that high sense of authority, and other people's casual doubts are all provocations for him.

And Wang Mingyuan, a modern young man, in his opinion, what is authority? Authority is meant to be challenged.

The difference between the concepts contributed to this bet, and Li Haibo and Wang Tieling were decided before they even had time to persuade them.

Bai Qidong: "When the time comes, don't you dare to come!" ”

Wang Mingyuan: "When the time comes, you have to admit it if you lose!" ”

Thinking about the situation when the two of them faced Mai Mang at the checkout, Li Haibo and Wang Tieling couldn't help but worry about Wang Mingyuan, they are chefs who have been in charge for many years, and they can even rely on the old man to say "You have eaten more salt than you have eaten rice" It is not an exaggeration.

How does this compare?

Therefore, when they were separated, Li Haibo also asked worriedly: "Brother Guo, I think it's better not to gamble, I'll help you make peace and make peace from it, and apologize casually." ”

"Hey, it's not delicious, what is the reason? still kneels down to apologize at every turn, the cow coaxes, why don't you go to heaven? Don't worry about this, if I'm not sure, I won't respond, don't worry! Wang Mingyuan said with a smile.

"Are you sure?" Wang Tieling was still a little worried.

"Let's wait to see the show!"

Wang Mingyuan was full of confidence: "I have to take a ride to the south tonight to buy goods, two, let's see you in ten days!" ”

Saying goodbye to the two, Wang Mingyuan hurriedly walked towards the hotel in the direction of the station.

Half an hour later, Wang Mingyuan returned to his room, found a sack, and put a bunch of things such as rice, flour, meat, and oil into a bag, good guy, and one hundred and fifty or sixty catties.

When the sky was completely dark, he bared his teeth and tied things on his back, staggered out of the hotel, found a secluded and uninhabited place, sensed the flickering light point representing Zhangjiaao in his mind, and with a move of his mind, he appeared in front of the earthen house of Zhiqing Point, and sat directly on the ground.

It's so heavy!

Before Wang Mingyuan could come back to his senses, he heard an exclamation from behind him.

The voice...... It's Han Xiaoling!

It can't be such a coincidence, right? Isn't it convenient to bump into it again?

Wang Mingyuan was beating a drum in his heart, and he was even more worried that he would be bumped into when he appeared out of thin air.

He slowly turned his head, looked at Han Xiaoling, who was holding an oil lamp with a frightened face, and smiled slightly: "Good evening!" ”

"Okay, you big-headed ghost!" Han Xiaoling patted her chest and glared at Wang Mingyuan angrily: "Why is there no movement at all every time, like a ghost, do you know that people are scary and scared to death?" I said, did you mean it? ”

Wang Mingyuan smiled and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to...... What are you doing? He just avoided the topic.

"You don't say a word, it's been two days to leave, and the piglets should always have someone to feed them, right? I just came back from washing and was feeding the piglets...... It's also strange to say that these two piglets are obviously unlikely to be fed, but when they come to you, they are alive and fast, and they can forage for food on their own. Han Xiaoling said with a puzzled expression.

Wang Mingyuan thought to himself: Of course, I don't look at what they eat, suckling pig weaning compound feed!

Feed, do you know what feed is?

In China, I am afraid that research in this field has only begun.

Obviously, this can't be said to Han Xiaoling.

Wang Mingyuan laughed: "Don't look at them, eat better than others, can it not be long!" ”

"That's right!"

Han Xiaoling nodded, in her memory, this piglet eats white rabbit toffee and flour, which is indeed something that ordinary people can't afford. She completely ignored what Wang Mingyuan said about adding other things to it, and instead said: "You fooling pigs, I'm afraid it will be overturned by them in a few days, so you have to prepare early." ”

Wang Mingyuan nodded and smiled at Han Xiaoling: "Thank you!" ”

This black girl, don't look at Wang Mingyuan's special disagreement during this time, but she is still very kind and careful, just like this piglet, Wang Mingyuan forgot to ask her for help when she left, she will take the initiative to help take care of it, and she will do a good job.

"There's nothing to thank, I'm just looking at the pork, oil, and lamb you sent!" Han Xiaoling rolled her eyes and glared at him: "I really can't get used to your lazy and lazy virtues, can't you change it?" ”

"Ah...... So in your eyes, I'm such a person? I'm trying to make money! Wang Mingyuan pouted: "I don't think you need to change it, it's good." ”

"Just do it!" Han Xiaoling didn't bother to pay attention to her, turned around and went back to the house directly.

Wang Mingyuan looked at her door, smiled lightly, and muttered in a low voice, "Finally started talking to me again...... Well, you can't be offended this time, otherwise there will be no washing machine, and you won't be able to find anyone to help you if you want to wash a set of clothes! ”

He returned the goods he had brought back to the kitchen, filled the rice and noodles into jars, hung up the ham, and set fire to the labels on the oil drums and the packaging of the rice noodles and destroyed them.

Where was Bai Qidong able to eat a good meal before, he was still in a semi-hungry state now, and he couldn't sleep well without eating, so he simply went outside and brought some firewood in, made the fire prosperous, and prepared to make himself something delicious.

It took more than half an hour for Wang Mingyuan to cook and cut some ham meat for himself.

This ham has been cured for two years, the fat has been fully transformed, and the lean meat with a special aroma in it can be eaten raw.

Wang Mingyuan first got a piece and chewed it in his mouth, and then began to stir-fry the meat.

When the ham meat is put into the pan and stir-fried slightly, the rich aroma of ham immediately spreads.

Han Xiaoling, who had already washed her feet and was about to go to bed, suddenly couldn't stand it.

The fragrance seems to have some kind of magical power, which can make people's saliva flow unstoppable, swallow and swallow...... It's so torturous.

The aroma continued to spread, and after a while, even Zhang Shouzhong, who was lying on the bed and had not yet fallen asleep, smelled it, couldn't help but shrug the tip of his nose, and muttered in a low voice: "What a fucking fragrance...... It must be that kid who is back. ”

The worm was hooked out, he swallowed his saliva, tossed and turned on the bed, and couldn't sleep anymore.

After thinking about it, he simply got up directly, put on his clothes, and came directly to Wang Mingyuan.

Originally, he just wanted to come over and take a peek at what Wang Mingyuan was cooking, but as a result, Zhang Shouzhong tiptoed to Wang Mingyuan's kitchen, only to find that Han Xiaoling was actually looking in through the crack in the door.

What's more, when Han Xiaoling, who heard the sound behind her head and turned around suddenly, saw the black figure behind her, she was suddenly frightened and screamed.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Mingyuan pushed the door out, raised the kerosene lamp and shook it, and saw that it was Han Xiaoling and Zhang Shouzhong, and he couldn't help asking, "Third uncle...... Xiaoling, what are you doing here? ”

It's been discovered!

Zhang Shouzhong and Han Xiaoling were a little embarrassed for a while.

Han Xiaoling didn't say anything, Zhang Shouzhong was a bachelor, and he smiled: "What delicious food do you kid make, the fragrance wafts to me, and I can't sleep well, what do you say I'm doing?" ”

So that's the case, Wang Mingyuan suddenly realized.

In Mangxian County, which is close to the border and relatively hot, it is difficult to use salt to ferment and store ham naturally, and the pork is usually smoked, smeared with various spices or directly fried until it is half-cooked and sealed in a tank.

This kind of authentic ham from Xuancheng, Yunnan Province, is not like modern times, it has become a home-cooked stir-fry, in the 80s, most people have just heard of it, have never seen it, let alone eaten it, of course, the ham at this time is the most authentic, with the local cooked food fed the hind legs of the pig, not with the feed to urge out of the pork can be compared.

For the aroma of fried ham, Wang Mingyuan himself also has a deep experience. In the community where his house is located, whoever fries ham to eat, just by this fragrance, is a secret that cannot be kept, it is not an exaggeration at all, and it can be smelled from dozens of meters away.

The feeling is that I fried ham by myself and attracted gluttonous worms.

Wang Mingyuan smiled at the two: "Come in and have a taste?" ”

Zhang Shouzhong unceremoniously went into Wang Mingyuan's kitchen, and Han Xiaoling said shyly "No" and turned around to leave, but was stopped by Wang Mingyuan in time: "Help me feed the piglets in the past two days, and I didn't say hello when I went to get the vegetables from your vegetable garden on weekdays, take care of me so much, you have to give me a substantial opportunity to thank you, just enjoy your face and eat some." ”

"Xiaoling, what are you afraid of, come in, there is a way not to eat for nothing!" Zhang Shouzhong also greeted: "Who told this kid to make such a show at this time, it's too deceitful, we have to take revenge!" ”

As soon as she heard this, Han Xiaoling was immediately happy.

looked at Wang Mingyuan, thinking that Zhang Shouzhong was in charge, she finally nodded and followed into Wang Mingyuan's kitchen.
