Chapter 34 Hesitated for half a second



Er Laizi spent the whole day playing cards in the haystack and never went to the threshing ground. Naturally, he didn't know that a delicate female educated youth had moved into the Yan family.

On a fairly good-looking face, a pair of eyes were moving around very fast.

He was good friends with the street thugs from several nearby villages. They would squat in haystacks to play cards together, go to the county town to sell blood together, and had a deep revolutionary friendship as if they were wearing the same pants.

Therefore, he knew which business could make money the fastest, and also knew where to buy meat without a ticket.

The Yan family is a typical example caught by the team. They don’t get much meat in a year, but it is precisely because of this typical situation that they can afford such a big bowl of meat in private.

Erlaizi guessed that Yan Mingli was probably engaging in speculation and profiteering in private, such as killing wild boars and exchanging them for money on the black market, or killing wild goats and not handing them over.

He also wanted meat, very much so, but unfortunately, his brothers had cleaner pockets than each other, and their channels were more limited than each other, so there was no way for them to make money.

His clever mind immediately started thinking about whether he could show his goodwill to the boss of the Yan family so that the boss of the Yan family would agree to recruit him, and then everyone could work together.

From the beginning to the end, Er Laizi never thought of reporting Yan Mingli. He knew very well that for someone like him who was nailed to the production team's pillar of shame by the team leader and affected the production enthusiasm of the entire production team, reporting others would be tantamount to digging a hole for himself.

Maybe he would be hit by bad luck. Yan Mingli would be fine, but he would be in trouble. He would not do something that would hurt others by 800 and himself by 1,000.

Thinking of this, Er Laizi prepared to get down from the stone quietly, and then go to knock on the door of Yan's house to curry favor with Yan Mingli and establish a formal friendly relationship with him.

Just as he was about to slowly step down the stone, he accidentally caught a glimpse of a piece of clothing at the corner of the courtyard wall. Could it be that someone had the same idea as him?

Impossible! There were only a handful of people in the village who were willing to interact with Yan Mingli like him, and those people simply didn't bother to hide from him.

Could it be that someone was trying to denounce the Yan family with ill intentions? The reason he had this thought was because just now, the same thought had flashed through Er Laizi's mind.

He wanted to see who was so blind as to ruin his plan of eating meat.

Er Laizi didn't stay for long. After walking down the stone, he quickly disappeared into the forked path.

After making sure that Er Laizi was out of sight, a skinny woman in her thirties with a pointed face and monkey-like features walked out quickly from behind the wall. Then, under the cover of sorghum stalks, she tiptoed and looked into the yard through the gap.

Although she didn't see the big bowl of meat, she could smell the rich aroma of meat.

Yan Mingli, you are a fifth-category element. You actually dared to eat meat secretly. You must have hunted wild animals in the mountains and did not hand them over to the government.

The woman was still thinking to herself, her eyes filled with anger, as if they were about to burst from her sockets at any time.

The meat smells so good, I'm afraid they hunted a wild boar or some other large game.

The skinny woman could no longer stand when she thought that Yan Mingli might hunt a wild boar or something else.

That was a wild boar, one that must have at least 100 to 200 kilograms of meat! If Yan Mingli dared to eat it all for himself, she would use her authority as an elder to tear his skin apart.

The skinny woman quietly covered the sorghum stalks and ran towards the fork in the road angrily and anxiously.

Er Laizi, who had been hiding behind a big tree at the fork in the road, saw clearly the skinny woman's furious face and was suddenly delighted. He had just been thinking about how to curry favor with Yan Mingli, and now he had a ready-made favor to sell.

Because it was already getting dark, the hurried woman did not notice that there was a person hiding behind the tree. At this moment, she only wanted to eat the wild boar meat as soon as possible.

Only after he could no longer hear the sound of the woman's rubber shoes dragging and flying did Er Laizi climb up the wall again and look inside.

At this moment in the Yan family bedroom, Yan Mingcheng and Yan Mingxue, standing at both ends of a long bench, were staring at their eldest brother.

"Brother, scoop the corn paste faster." Usually, the brother scooped the paste very quickly, but today it felt like he had been scooping for a long time and still hadn't scooped the clay pot clean.

Little greedy cat! Mo Yutong looked at Yan Mingxue with amusement as she once again fixed her gaze on the large bowl. She picked up a piece of pork elbow of moderate thickness with her chopsticks and brought it to her mouth, coaxing, "Xue'er, help me taste it and see if it tastes good."

"Okay, sister." Yan Mingxue was sent to the bedroom by her eldest brother to help her sister, and did not hear the conversation between him and her second brother, but she knew that all the meat belonged to her sister. She could help her sister taste it, but she could not eat too much.

A piece of braised pork elbow was placed in Yan Mingxue's small mouth. She chewed it slowly, her eyes wide open as the aroma of meat flowed through her teeth. She said incoherently, "Sister, it's delicious, so delicious!"

Oh my god! This is the most delicious meat she has ever eaten since she was little. It tastes much better than the fatty slices cooked by her elder brother.

"Chengcheng, help your sister try it too." Mo Yutong picked up another piece of pork elbow and handed it to Yan Mingcheng's mouth.

"Sister, I don't need to taste it. If my younger sister says it's delicious, it must be delicious." Yan Mingcheng looked at the tempting piece of pork elbow on the chopsticks in confusion. He wanted to swallow it in one bite, but his elder brother said that the meat belonged to his sister and they couldn't eat it.

"My sister is a girl and Chengcheng is a boy. Girls and boys have different tastes, so Chengcheng has to help his sister taste it." Mo Yutong began to make up stories with reason and evidence, her eyes full of sincerity.

"Okay then!" Yan Mingcheng opened his mouth helplessly and ate the big piece of pork elbow that Mo Yutong fed him.

The fragrant and glutinous pork elbow seems to melt between the lips and teeth as soon as it enters the mouth. If you take a sip, the meat will separate easily. After a few chews, it will roll smoothly into the stomach.

"Sister, it's delicious!" Yan Mingcheng did not forget his identity as a food taster and nodded in praise.

Mo Yutong smiled lightly, then picked up another piece of pig ear and put it into the half-covered chili powder in the aluminum lunch box lid.

She had just returned to her bedroom and got the chili powder from Cao Ji Braised Meat Shop. Because she couldn't find a suitable box, she had to take out the aluminum lunch box her mother had put in her backpack and use the aluminum lid on it to put the powder in.

The pig ears wrapped in fresh and fragrant chili powder were brought to Yan Mingli's lips. He looked up at Mo Yutong with bright eyes.

Perhaps because of the precedent of being fed crispy candy just now, this time he only hesitated for half a second and then put the pig ear into his mouth without hesitation.

"Brother Li, is it delicious?" Mo Yutong looked at him carefully. In his previous life, he loved this dish very much and sometimes he could even eat a whole pig ear.

"Hmm, delicious!" It is undeniable that these braised pig ears are the most delicious braised dishes he has ever eaten.

There is no fishy smell that can never be removed from some braised meats. It has only a fresh, fragrant and flexible texture, especially the slightly crispy cartilage, which tastes very rich.
