Chapter 16 Liu Chan gets beaten
She attacked without mercy. Bai Qihang, who was standing by, thought his sister was amazing and his eyes were full of admiration.
The pheasant eggs were cooked, and Bai Yangfan took them out and put them aside, letting Bai Qihang eat them while the pot was cooking. There were only four eggs in total, and they were not very big. Eating them all would not make much difference.
She started to wash the pot, pour oil, stir-fry ginger and garlic, and stir-fry the pheasant.
With a sizzling sound, the meat was put into the pot and after a few stir-fries, the aroma came out. Bai Qihang quickly scooped up some water and handed it to Bai Yangfan.
"Sister! Pour the water in quickly and cover the pot. This way the fragrance won't escape and Ergouzi won't be able to smell it either."
Looking at his four-year-old brother, Bai Yangfan felt really sad. He had thought of every possible way to protect his stuttering sister and prevent her from giving away good things.
"I'll stir-fry for a while longer to let the soy sauce color it before adding water. If you add it too early, the chicken will come out white and ugly, which will affect your appetite." Bai Yangfan also cooked in his previous life, and his cooking skills were no worse than those of ordinary chefs.
After stir-frying, add water, cover the pot and simmer slowly.
"Let's sail! Once we start sailing, we won't need to burn so much firewood. We can cook over a slow fire to make the meat taste better."
Suddenly, Ergouzi rushed in and saw the two pheasant eggs by the stove. He grabbed them and stuffed them into his mouth without even peeling the eggshells, for fear that Bai Qihang would snatch them back if he was too late.
Seeing that Er Gouzi had snatched the pheasant eggs he had left for his sister, Bai Qihang was furious and pushed him. "Er Gouzi! Those were the pheasant eggs I saved for my sister. Why did you take them? You're so mean. My sister worked so hard to find them in the mountains, and you took them away before she even ate a single one. Pay me back, pay me back."
Bai Yangfan went outside to find some potatoes and came back. She saw that Ergouzi didn't forget to eat pheasant eggs even after being pushed to the ground. She was afraid that he would get up and beat her brother after eating, so she quickly pulled Ergouzi up and sent him out.
"Er Gouzi! Go back first. I told you to eat all the pheasant eggs, but don't come to my house for no reason in the future. I had a fight with your mother last night, and our two families have broken off relations."
Ergouzi, who was thrown outside the door, had pheasant eggs in his mouth and had no time to speak. His eyes were opening and closing due to choking. He was swallowing so quickly that the eggs were stuck.
After he finished eating, he looked back at the closed door of Bai Yangfan's house, his eyes rolled, and he immediately got up and ran home.
After returning home and gulping down a bucket of cold water, Er Gouzi went around looking for his mother Liu Chan. If he wanted to eat the food from Bai Yangfan's house next door, only his mother could help him.
He could smell the chicken stewing in the pot. That was meat, meat. It would be fine if he didn't get to eat the snail meat, but he had to eat the pheasant meat today.
At this moment, Liu Chan was in the toilet. Er Gouzi walked over and shouted into the toilet: "Mom! Bai Yangfan has delicious food at home. I want it, I want it. Go get it for me."
In Er Gouzi's mind, as long as it was something he wanted, his mother Liu Chan would find a way to get it. If asking anyone else didn't work, he would go to his mother.
Liu Chan couldn't even go to the toilet and hurried out with her pants pulled up: "What delicious food did that damn guy bring back?"
Er Gouzi asked for a reward, "Pheasant meat!"
"What?" Liu Chan's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but drool. "Pheasant? Did that damn guy kill a pheasant?"
Er Gouzi nodded eagerly, "Not only are there pheasants, but there are also pheasant eggs. I just went over and grabbed two to eat. Mom! Bai Yangfan prepared a huge pot of meat. Let's go over and get it all! I want to eat it, I want to eat it."
Glancing at her son, Liu Chan thought for a moment and decided that if she used force, Bai Yangfan might not give it to her, so she decided to try a soft approach. If it didn't work out, she'd throw a tantrum again. No matter what, she'd have to eat meat tonight.
Smelling the aroma of meat wafting in the air, Liu Chan whispered a few words in Ergouzi's ear.
Ergouzi was very obedient and ran to his third aunt Fang Wenjuan's house.
After a while, Fang Wenjuan's son, five-year-old Liangliang, was brought in and stood in front of Bai Yangfan's door, knocking on it.
"Bai Qihang! Liangliang is here and he wants to come to your house to play."
Five-year-old Liangliang and Bai Qihang often played together, and the two little guys were quite close. Hearing that he was coming, Bai Qihang trotted over and opened the door a crack.
He waved at Liangliang: "Brother Liangliang! Come in, Ergouzi is not allowed to enter."
Liangliang shook his head: "I won't go in. It's getting dark. I have to go home for dinner. Brother Ergouzi! You should go back too!"
"Why should I go back? I told you that we are going to play with Bai Qihang. If you want to go back, you go back. I won't." Ergouzi was about to squeeze in through the crack in the door. The pheasant meat inside was probably stewed and smelled very fragrant!
Bai Qihang pushed the door tightly open, not letting Er Gouzi in: "Who wants to play with you? I'm done with you. I only want Brother Liangliang to come in, and you're not allowed to come in."
Ergouzi is seven years old after all and is taller. Bai Qihang is only four years old no matter what and cannot push him at all.
The crack in the door was quickly pushed open by Ergouzi, and he slipped in sideways.
Liangliang glanced at him, told Bai Qihang that he wanted to go home, and turned and left.
He smelled the aroma of meat in the house, but his mother said that his sister and brother had a hard life and he couldn't come to their house to ask for food.
His mother is his teacher, and he has to listen to her.
Liangliang left, but Ergouzi didn't leave. He went straight to the kitchen and reached out to lift the lid of the pot.
Bai Qihang was young after all, and very protective of his food. He pushed him away and said, "Er Gouzi! You are shameless! You came to my house to steal food. I will beat you to death!"
Bai Yangfan, who was tidying up the room, heard it and came out. He looked at Er Gouzi with a cold face and said, "Didn't I tell you to go back? Why are you here again?"
Seeing her cold gaze, Er Gouzi was a little timid. He lowered his head and pointed at the pot: "I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat."
"You have no share." Bai Yangfan was not polite and carried Er Gouzi out the door. "If you want to eat meat, ask your mother to go to the mountains to get it. From now on, you will never eat a single bite of my meat. Go back and tell your mother to pay me back what you owe me, otherwise I will go to the commune to complain."
Ergouzi refused to give in without meat. He hung on the ground like a heavy weight and refused to get up. If Bai Yangfan was not so strong, most people would not be able to drag him away.
Liu Chan from next door heard her son crying and rushed out immediately, pointing at Bai Yangfan and yelling, "You bastard, why did you hit my son? What's wrong with eating a piece of your meat?
You shot a pheasant, and you and your brother weren't afraid of being stuffed to death. Why couldn't you give your brother a piece? You ate it all by yourself! Damn it! Ever since you came to our house, there has been no peace.
You killed your father and your grandmother, are you planning to kill my son? No way, let go. No wonder Lu Zhiqing doesn't want you. A piece of trash like you will bring bad luck to anyone who marries you.
Liu Chan was cursing fiercely when Bai Yangfan slapped her in the face, causing her to stagger and fall to the ground.
