As soon as I entered Wang Tiejun's house, I saw several children headed by Wang Tiejun, all sticking to the wall, greedily sniffing the fragrance coming from Ye's house.
Tiejun's mother blushed, picked up a broom and hit the children with it.
"What are you doing? Aren't you ashamed?"
If it were usual, at this time, others would definitely speak out to stop it and give Tiejun's mother a way out.
But as soon as they entered Wang Tiejun's yard, the fragrance became stronger and stronger, as if it was going to envelope everyone.
Everyone was so immersed in the aroma that no one spoke a word.
Tiejun's mother originally wanted to pretend to hit the children a few times and drive them away, but the children seemed to have taken some medicine wrong and refused to move even after being beaten.
Finally, she was so angry that she used all her strength to beat the children until they cried loudly. Then they ran back into the house crying and dared not come out.
"Oh, Tiejun's mother, why are you hitting the child?" Someone finally came to their senses and whispered, "Forget about the child, I'm dizzy just by smelling this fragrance. I clearly had a full meal at noon, but now I feel hungry!"
Another person laughed and said, "You're not hungry at all, you're just greedy!"
"Why, you're not greedy?"
"Who wouldn't be greedy! This smell is so good that it could even attract the gods from heaven."
While people were discussing next door, Mrs. Ye was checking whether the donkey meat was done.
When it was almost cooked, he lifted the lid of the pot and set it aside, simmering it over low heat to collect the soup.
Now the fragrance gushed out unhindered, and the whole yard was filled with the aroma of meat.
At this time, not to mention the children, even Old Mrs. Ye could no longer sit still in the house.
She hesitated for a moment, then got up from the kang, put her hands behind her back, and strolled to the kitchen to ask, "Is it ready?"
"Mom, not yet!" Mrs. Ye said as she stirred the donkey meat in the pot. "It still needs to slowly reduce the soup. It will take at least half an hour, otherwise it won't be flavorful enough."
When she heard that it would take more than half an hour, Mrs. Ye couldn't help feeling a little anxious.
But she is old after all, and it is not appropriate for her to show her greedy side in front of her wife and children.
She forced herself to nod and said, "Well, take your time, there's no rush."
At this time, Mrs. Guo was also awakened from her sleep by the fragrance. She couldn't help but go to the kitchen for a walk. In the end, she held back and didn't dare to ask Mrs. Ye for a piece of food. She swallowed her saliva while waiting for dinner.
In the evening, Mrs. Ye finally finished stewing the donkey meat, took it out and put it in a basin to cool.
Then she asked Boss Ye to help her sharpen the kitchen knife and cut the two pieces of meat shanks into even, translucent thin slices.
The cut donkey shank meat is so thin and translucent that you can see the beautiful pattern of meat and tendons interwoven on each piece.
Mrs. Ye called a few children forward and stuffed a mouthful of the shapeless minced meat into each of their mouths.
The children immediately showed expressions of enjoyment, chewing the small piece of meat repeatedly in their mouths, and were reluctant to swallow it.
"Is it delicious?" Mrs. Ye asked with a smile.
"tasty!"
“It’s so delicious!”
"Auntie, can you give me another piece?"
The children were talking in a flurry.
"You guys go out and play for a while, then we'll all eat together tonight!"
As Mrs. Ye spoke, she divided the cut donkey meat into several portions and placed them on a large plate. Then she put the plate into a basket, covered it with a clean white cloth, and carried it to Ye Juaner's house.
After hearing what Mrs. Ye said, Ye Juan'er was quite surprised, but she also agreed with her family's approach.
"That's right, we all have the same surname, so we should get along well.
"You came all the way from outside the Great Wall, and you don't even know anyone here.
"If anything happens in the family in the future, won't people from the same clan help each other?"
"Aunt, you are right. My mother said the same thing."
"Although we haven't spent much time together, I can see that your mother-in-law is a person who knows what's going on and what's going on."
"That's right, I also need to learn more from my mother!"
Ye Juan'er naturally remembered the families she had helped before. She introduced the situation of each family to her in detail on the way, and then took her to deliver the prepared donkey meat to each family.
Everyone originally went to help Ye Juaner, but they didn't expect the Ye family to be so particular about doing things.
Especially since the donkey meat that was delivered to them was so fragrant, everyone naturally greeted Mrs. Ye with a smile.
After delivering all the donkey meat, Mrs. Ye wanted to take Ye Juaner to her home for dinner.
Ye Juaner said repeatedly: "No, no, I ate at your house this morning. How can I eat at your house every meal?"
"Aunt, please don't refuse. Uncle-in-law and Uncle Dongkui should be at my house by now. Changrui has gone to the private school to wait for Xianglei to finish school. What are you going to eat when you go home alone?"
Ye Juan'er couldn't break free and was finally dragged back home by Mrs. Ye.
As soon as I entered the room, I found that Liu Quan and Ye Dongkui were already sitting in the room.
Not long after, Ye Xianglei was also called over by Ye Changrui.
Ye Juan'er glared at Liu Quan when no one was paying attention, but she couldn't get angry in front of Ye Dongkui.
At this time, Liu Quan was looking at the donkey meat on the table and swallowing his saliva, and he didn't realize that his wife was angry at all.
Although the family was not so poor that they could not afford meat, the meat did not look like pork, beef or mutton, and even the taste was different from what they had eaten before.
"Uncle Dongkui, aunt, uncle, I just made whatever I had at home, please don't be disgusted."
