Chapter 66 Hiss - Burning Knife
Jiang Tang sent meat buns to his neighbors and familiar sister-in-law, and also thought of another person, Liang Kailai, who was closest to Fu Sinian.
During the time that Jiang Tang lived in the compound, Liang Kailai not only sent furniture to their family, but also sent candies and snacks to Chaochao and Yueyue. Chaochao and Yueyue called them "Uncle Liang" in a crisp voice, which made Liang Kailai, a bachelor, completely infatuated with them.
Jiang Tang thought for a moment and said, "We made so many meat buns today. How about saving some for Captain Liang? We can have them for breakfast tomorrow."
Fu Sinian didn't expect Jiang Tang to be so attentive. Even his comrade Liang Kailai had thought of it.
"he……"
Just as he was about to speak, Liang Kailai's cheerful voice came from the other side.
"Sister-in-law! What delicious food are you making? Why does it smell so good?"
Jiang Tang and Fu Sinian looked up together and saw Liang Kailai walking in with Yueyue in one hand and a roast duck in the other.
Liang Kailai said, "I just arrived at your door and saw Yueyue. The little girl wasn't there, but she was holding a big bowl."
Yueyue’s big bowl was not empty, there was a handful of peanuts and red dates in it.
She said softly, "Mom, Aunt Ding said she accepted the meat buns, and this is for us to eat."
Liang Kailai reached out and grabbed the bowl that Yueyue could barely hold. He placed it on the table, his eyes lighting up as he said cheerfully, "What a coincidence! Are you having meat buns? I love meat buns the most. I can eat five or six in one sitting."
Fu Sinian replied, "It's no coincidence."
Liang Kailai arrived just as the first batch of fresh buns came out of the oven.
Jiang Tang secretly pushed Fu Sinian, whose tone was cold, and quickly said, "Lieutenant Liang, I was just telling Sinian to bring you some buns, but I didn't expect you to come so soon. Stay for dinner tonight."
"Sister-in-law, since you said so, I won't be polite and will stay for dinner." Liang Kailai handed the roast duck he brought to Jiang Tang.
He didn't eat Jiang Tang and Fu Sinian's meal in vain. The roast duck he brought was shiny and oily, and it was obvious that it was of high quality and would definitely taste even better.
After a while, Chaochao came back after delivering the buns. The big bowl he brought back was not empty. It contained a little of Zhao Xiumei's best sauerkraut.
Eat steamed buns with sauerkraut. One bite of meat bun and one bite of sauerkraut. It becomes sauerkraut buns, which has a unique flavor.
A few people tidied up the table where they had been making dumplings. Fu Sinian took the roast duck and cut it into small pieces in the kitchen. When he came out again, Jiang Tang, his two children, and Liang Kailai had already taken their seats familiarly.
Liang Kailai seemed more like the master of the house than Fu Sinian. "Fu Tuan, please sit down. We only need you to eat."
It sounded as if Fu Sinian came late on purpose.
Fu Sinian really wanted to stuff Liang Kailai's mouth with meat buns.
After Fu Sinian put down the roast duck, he took out the two duck legs and gave one to Jiang Tang and one to Yueyue, and then gave Chaochao a duck wing.
This way, the best duck wing is left in the roast duck.
"I, I, I—" Liang Kailai picked up the small bowl to receive it. After all, he was a guest, and this duck wing must be his. "Thank you, Master Fu—"
After receiving the dish and saying "thank you", Fu Sinian picked up the duck wings and put them in his own bowl.
Fu Sinian glanced at Liang Kailai's incredulous expression and said calmly, "You want to eat too, just help yourself."
Jiang Tang was stunned by this scene. He didn't expect Fu Sinian to be like this. It was quite funny.
Liang Kailai was speechless and put down the small bowl awkwardly. He wasn't angry at all. After taking a bite of the big bun, he pretended to sigh and muttered, "Alas... after having a wife and children, the comradeship is gone. I can't even eat duck legs and duck wings. It seems I can only eat duck butt."
Yueyue understood Liang Kailai's complaint. She looked at the duck leg in her hand, which was covered with her saliva and she had taken several bites of it, and handed it to Liang Kailai carefully.
"Uncle Liang, do you want to eat duck legs? Yueyue's is for you."
Liang Kailai's heart almost melted, "They say daughters are sweet little cotton-padded jackets, it's true, how can Yueyue be so well-behaved! Uncle doesn't eat duck legs, you eat it yourself."
As soon as she finished speaking, Yueyue had already stuffed the duck leg into her mouth.
Yueyue mumbled, "Uncle Liang, you're so nice. You don't fight with me for food."
The little girl is naturally ignorant, and it is such innocent words that can most control people's hearts, because people will naturally think that someone has snatched Yueyue's food away, leaving such a young child hungry. It's really hateful!
Liang Kailai looked at Yueyue with eyes that almost melted, and he couldn't wait to promise, "Uncle Liang will buy everything for you, Yueyue."
Liang Kailai happily ate his meat buns and gnawed on his duck butt. He took out a bottle of white wine from somewhere and put it on the table.
Duck butt with white wine, perfect match~
Liang Kailai poured a glass of wine and raised it to Jiang Tang. "Sister-in-law, you and Fu Tuan should have had this wedding wine five years ago, but it was delayed. It's not too late to drink it now. You already have a son and a daughter. I wish you a long and happy life with many children and grandchildren."
This was the real reason why Liang Kailai brought the roast duck to have this meal, to make up for the wedding banquet five years ago.
"Sister-in-law, I'll drink wine and you can just drink tea." Liang Kailai said.
Jiang Tang reached out to pick up the white wine, but Fu Sinian quickly stopped her, "Tangtang, the white wine is too strong."
Jiang Tang shook his head and said, "Lieutenant Liang is offering a wedding toast, so I have to drink this glass of wine. Don't worry, I'll just take a small sip, just for your sake."
After hearing what Jiang Tang said, Fu Sinian took the bottle of wine, poured some for Jiang Tang, and poured himself a glass.
"cheers."
The three of them clinked their glasses, making a crisp sound.
Although there were no festive red decorations in the room, when I thought about the wedding photos I took today and the wedding wine Liang Kailai specially brought to congratulate me, it felt like I was really getting married.
hiss--
Jiang Tang only took a small sip, and the spicy liquor filled his mouth, making him unable to help but frown.
She was really muttering about the baijiu from the 1970s. Unlike the industrial liquor diluted with water decades later, the baijiu Liang Kailai brought was brewed by his hometown, and it had another famous name - Shaodaozi.
How can you not choke if you put a burning knife into your throat?
Fu Sinian immediately handed over the enamel cup filled with warm water, "Drink some water and relax."
Jiang Tang took a sip of water. After the pungent smell of alcohol in his mouth faded, a hint of the mellow sweetness of white wine remained at the root of his tongue. It was actually quite delicious.
She took another sip secretly while Fu Sinian wasn't paying attention. After she was mentally prepared, it wasn't as choking as the first time, and she slowly got used to it.
