Chapter 99 Meow Meow Meow

Looking at the roast duck steaming in the oven in front of her, all Mrs. Huo's thoughts flew away.

Even Huo Ran, who had not yet finished speaking, suddenly closed his mouth and remained silent for a long time.

Roast, roast duck...

Being so close, the aroma of the roast duck mixed with the smell of charcoal rushed straight towards people's faces. All the adults present, including the bodyguards, were speechless.

Instead, Huo Yan on the side jumped up first and said excitedly: "Boss Xiaolan, do you still remember me? Yesterday you promised to give me a free roast duck!"

Jian Yunlan glanced at him: "..."

This kid was so scared that he fainted yesterday, but he actually remembered to get a free roast duck!

But as a reliable adult who keeps his word, Jian Yunlan will certainly not go back on his promises.

"Okay, wait a moment." After saying that, Jian Yunlan took a roast duck from the oven and started packing it for Huo Yan.

Huo Yan had been craving for the roast duck for so long, and when he saw the roast duck, he couldn't hold it back any longer. Like Mu Mingqiu, he just picked up the duck and started to eat it.

After just one bite, his eyes lit up: "Delicious, so delicious, this roast duck, my god!!!"

Huo Yan is a child after all, and he can't control his emotions like adults. He likes something when he likes it, and hates something when he hates it. All his emotions are clearly written on his face.

Holding the roast duck, Huo Yan soon started to eat it with relish, his mouth full of oil.

Huo Ran stood aside, looking at Huo Yan with gentle eyes, and touched Huo Yan's head: "Eat slowly, don't choke... Look at you, kid, you must be so tired holding such a big roast duck."

After saying that, Huo Ran stretched out his hand, smiled and helped Huo Yan hold the roast duck firmly.

"No need, uncle. I can hold it myself." Huo Yan wanted to pull the roast duck back into his hand.

Pump, pump...I can't pump.

Huo Ran smiled and held the roast duck leg tightly, repeating meaningfully: "It's such a big roast duck, let your uncle help you."

Huo Yan couldn't help but shudder: "..."

And at this time, on the other side.

Seeing Huo Yan already eating, Mrs. Huo finally came to her senses and said hurriedly, "Boss Xiaolan, I want a roast duck too. Slice it and take it away."

"Okay." The little boy responded and began to skillfully slice a whole roast duck and put it into a box. He then packed them up separately with the spring pancake skins, cucumber and green onion shreds, duck sauce and marinade, put them into a big bag and handed it to Mrs. Huo.

His movements were very skillful. A normal person might need more than ten minutes to pack such a large amount of food, but the little boy only needed two or three minutes from slicing the duck to packing. Moreover, the duck slices were cut so thin and evenly, like a magic trick, which stunned the adults around him.

Old Madam Huo took the roast duck with trembling hands and walked aside.

A boss of her level would not normally do something as undignified as squatting on the side of the road to eat...

Unless you can't help it!

Mrs. Huo opened the package and took a deep breath. The aroma of roast duck reached her head!

The freshly-baked roast duck is even more fragrant and appetizing than last night's amazing roast duck. The hot duck skin is a translucent bright red, and the fat and duck meat underneath are clearly visible.

Mrs. Huo couldn't bear it any longer, so she picked up a piece of duck meat with chopsticks, dipped it in duck sauce, wrapped it with cucumber, green onion shreds and spring roll skin, and put it into her mouth.

Mrs. Huo: "!!!"

Before she actually tasted the roast duck, she had imagined the taste of roast duck countless times. It is often said that the best things only exist in imagination. Mrs. Huo was worried that the roast duck she actually tasted might not be as good as she expected.

But the actual taste of the roast duck far exceeded her expectations!

——The first thing that the teeth touched was the thin but slightly tough spring pancake skin. After biting through the soft spring pancake skin, the roast duck wrapped inside was revealed. The duck skin is incredibly crispy and fragrant. When you bite through the crispy skin, the hot fat flows out from under the skin and melts in your mouth. It is oily but not greasy.

After passing through the duck skin, you can taste the delicious and dense duck meat. The duck meat has a rich meaty aroma. The aroma of the burning fruit wood charcoal fire roasting in the oven is completely integrated into the meat and runs through the entire duck body.

The more you chew the duck meat, the more salty and delicious it becomes. It is oily and has a slightly sweet taste against the duck sauce.

The cucumber and green onion shreds serve as garnishes, adding a touch of freshness and elevating the quality of the roast duck to an unimaginable level.

So, so delicious...

Amid the bustling atmosphere around her, the conversations and laughter of the people, and tasting the delicious food in her mouth, Mrs. Huo almost had tears in her eyes.

After staying in a high position for a long time, I realized how lonely I am.

The relationship with relatives and grandchildren is not close, and most of the friends around him are connected by interests. The happiness brought by all kinds of gold, silver, jewelry, delicacies from mountains and seas is far less than that of a bite of roast duck at a roadside stall in the bustling city.

Of course, this is no ordinary roast duck!

After taking a few bites of the roast duck, Mrs. Huo's heartstrings were touched again when she looked at the duck rack beside her.

Duck bones are leftovers from roast duck, so many people would just throw them away, let alone a big shot like Mrs. Huo.

she? Eating duck bones? How is that possible?

But few people know that when Mrs. Huo was a child, she and her brothers and sisters squeezed under the eaves and actually ate duck bones. At that time, the family was in financial difficulty, and eating roast duck was a big happy event like a festival. There were many children in their family, and each person could only get a small piece of roast duck dipped in marinade.

The hungry children would secretly dip the duck bones in the sauce and nibble on the little bit of meat attached to them.

Even if there is only a little bit of meat, it is incredibly delicious through the filter of childhood.

At this time, Mrs. Huo looked at the duck rack next to her and was also a little eager to make a move——

She looked around and made sure no one was watching her before she carefully picked up a duck rack, dipped it in sweet noodle sauce, and started to eat it.

...Wuhu.

tasty!

The meat on the duck frame is very tender and slightly hot, and has a unique flavor when paired with the sweet and sour sauce.

The most amazing thing is that, I don’t know what method Boss Xiaolan used, but even the duck bones inside the roast duck are fragrant, with a unique aroma produced by the burning fruit charcoal during roasting.

This kind of duck bones can definitely be delicious if you take them home and ask the chef to make duck bone soup or pepper and salt duck bones.

And the extra duck fat can't be wasted, you can use it to steam eggs, and the brine can be used to make roast duck and bibimbap...

While eating the roast duck, Mrs. Huo arranged all the leftovers of the roast duck clearly. She felt that her intake of roast duck for the next few days was guaranteed, so she continued to eat happily.

Bite after bite, Mrs. Huo's eating speed gradually increased.

He didn’t even have time to blow it cool. He had just swallowed the previous mouthful when he immediately rushed the next mouthful of roast duck into his mouth, almost choking himself: “Cough, cough, cough, cough!”

Although Madam Huo had taken good care of herself, she was old after all, and she couldn't calm down after she started coughing.

But because she didn't want to attract attention, her bodyguards had been sent aside. At this time, they were under a tree in the distance and had not yet noticed anything unusual about Madam Huo.

She coughed so hard that tears came out. At this moment, she just felt her throat was dry and itchy and wanted to drink a sip of water.

I wonder if someone heard her thoughts.

Someone beside him actually handed over a bottle of mineral water at the right time, accompanied by a clear voice: "Do you need water? I have an extra bottle here."

This is really timely relief.

Mrs. Huo nodded quickly, took the bottle of water without thinking, and drank it quickly.

The cool mineral water flowed down my throat, instantly relieving the discomfort caused by the cough.

After a long while, Mrs. Huo finally recovered and slowly calmed down. She thanked the young man who handed her the water:

"Thank you, young man. You are such a good boy! What's your name?"

"It's okay, Auntie. It's just a piece of cake," Ye Qingquan smiled introvertedly, with a proud tone, "You patronized my baby's roast duck stall, so it's only natural for me to hand you a bottle of water. By the way, my name is Ye Qingquan..."

While talking.

Ye Qingquan lowered his head.

Old Madam Huo looked up.

The two looked at each other, and were stunned when they saw each other's faces.

Memories suddenly came flooding back.

Three years ago, in an elegant coffee shop, a woman wearing sunglasses and an emerald green bracelet had fine lines on her face. When she raised her chin slightly, she looked a little arrogant, but her noble aura made her arrogance so reasonable.

Sitting opposite her was a handsome young man wearing a white shirt. The young man was dressed neatly and simply, his expression a little embarrassed, his left hand subconsciously resting on his lower abdomen, not daring to look up and meet the woman's eyes.

——"I'll give you five million and leave my son alone."

——"Since Huo Ye's true love has returned to China, don't worry, Auntie, I will never bother him. I will stay far away and won't come out to get in the way again."

The young man frowned, and ultimately did not tell anyone about the baby in his belly.

He thought, baby, daddy will do his best to treat you well, and from now on, we will be relatives who depend on each other. Although you were born into a single parent, Daddy will give you double the love and let you grow up happily.

…But the young people at that time would never have imagined it.

Three years later, this baby will become the little blue boss at the street roast duck stall, sought after by countless people and lingering, and made countless bigwigs bow down at his feet.

Memories come back.

Ye Qingquan: “…”

Mrs. Huo: “…………”

Old Madam Huo looked at Ye Qingquan, then at the young figure busy at the roast duck stall not far away.

In a flash.

A truth that was already extremely obvious has come to light.

In that awkward silence...

Mrs. Huo's mouth gradually grew into an O shape.

After a while, her expression became extremely complicated. She looked at Boss Xiao Lan, then at Ye Qingquan, and then at herself.

She clearly remembered that when Ye Qingquan spoke just now, he mentioned the words "my baby's roast duck stall".

If Boss Xiaolan is Ye Qingquan’s baby, he is three years old this year, and has that extremely familiar face.

Isn't that Xiaolan Boss her...

Madam Huo tried to hold back, but finally couldn't hold back any more. She was so dizzy from the surprise that she almost lost her voice and said:

"There is such a good thing???!!!"
