Chapter 79: The Domineering Li Mancang



Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Xu Jianguo said, "Uncle, I'm sorry to have caused you trouble!"

"This is nothing but a bullshit trouble. You did the right thing! That Zhao Wenjuan looked down on our village when she came here last time, and this time she even dared to suspect you. I'm not her father, so why should I spoil her? She really thinks she's someone important! If she had served under me as a soldier, I would have skinned her alive!" Li Mancang said gritting his teeth.

"Hehe, uncle, so domineering!" Xu Jianguo gave a thumbs up when he heard this.

"Uncle Mancang, so domineering!" Funiu also imitated him and said, the thumbs-up with her chubby little hand was so cute.

"Woof woof!" Xiao Hei barked twice, not to be outdone.

"Hahahaha...you little guys!" Li Mancang was amused by the two dogs, one big and one small, and laughed out loud. He stretched out his hand and pointed at them.

"Uncle, I think they will inevitably complain to their superiors when they go back today. I think we should prepare in advance!" Xu Jianguo said.

"Well, that makes sense! Do you have any ideas?" Li Mancang asked.

"Hey, it really exists!"

"Oh? Tell me quickly!" Li Mancang became excited upon hearing this and asked.

Xu Jianguo was afraid that Funniu would be cold, so he picked her up and took Li Mancang back into the house.

After putting Funiu on the kang, Xu Jianguo said, "Uncle, you can go take a look at my experimental field first, and then go to the commune and ask the commune director to come and take a look. As for what to do after we see it, you will know then."

Seeing Xu Jianguo's unfathomable expression, Li Mancang felt angry and said, "You little brat, I'm almost dying of anxiety, and you're still keeping me in suspense!"

"Uncle, don't be anxious. Let's go to the field and take a look first!" Xu Jianguo said with a wicked smile.

Seeing his confident look, Li Mancang felt more confident and stood up and said, "Okay, I'll go now!"

"Don't be in a hurry, uncle. Let's go after lunch. It won't take a while!" said Xu Jianguo.

Li Mancang thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I haven't tasted your cooking yet, so I'll have lunch here today."

"Okay, you take care of Funniu, I'll go cook!" After Xu Jianguo said that, he took the cups of Lin Jianghai and Zhao Wenjuan on the kang table, turned around and went to the main room.

After cleaning the cup and putting it away, Xu Jianguo took out two pounds of flour and started kneading the dough. Soon a white dough was kneaded out. Xu Jianguo put the dough aside to let it wake up.

The two eels that first moved into the space were taken out. After such a long time, the two eels had grown a lot bigger.

Many of their offspring were also bred in the fish pond. In his previous life, Xu Jianguo remembered that eels were a very interesting species of fish. They could change their gender to reproduce according to their needs.

That is to say, in the absence of male eels, a small number of female eels in the same batch will revert to male eels, and then reproduce offspring with the same batch of female eels. This is the special feature of eels that distinguishes them from other animals. However, the sex change of eels is irreversible. Eels that have been transformed into males cannot change back to females.

Use boiling water to remove the mucous membrane and fishy smell, rub repeatedly with cooking wine, wash with clean water, remove bones and internal organs, cut into shreds and set aside.

Heat oil in a pan, sauté minced garlic until fragrant, add shredded eel and stir-fry until thick, add appropriate amount of water, bring to a boil over high heat and reduce the sauce slightly, add water starch to thicken and serve.

Roll the dough into a pancake shape and stack them up, then cut them into noodles of uniform width with a knife, shake them out and wait for the water to boil before putting them into the pot.

Pour the cooked noodles into a bowl, heat oil in a pan, put the minced garlic prepared in advance on the eel shreds, pour hot oil on it and stir-fry until fragrant and mix well.

After doing all this, Xu Jianguo took out two cucumbers from the space and mixed them with salt and sesame oil.

After serving noodles, eel stew, and mixed cucumbers, Xu Jianguo filled a large bowl of noodles and poured two large spoonfuls of stew over it. He placed it in front of Li Mancang and said, "Uncle, try it! I caught this eel in the mountains."

"There are eels in our mountains?" Li Mancang looked at Xu Jianguo in disbelief and asked.

"Yes, there is a muddy ditch in the south. There are not only eels in it, but also crayfish and snails!" Xu Jianguo said seriously.

In fact, he was not talking nonsense. There was indeed such a place, but he didn't know whether there were eels in it.

"Okay, let me try your cooking!" Li Mancang nodded and said.

Xu Jianguo served noodles to Funiu and himself, poured some sauce on them, and the three of them began to eat the noodles with slurps.

Soon, Li Mancang finished a large bowl of noodles and seemed to be still hungry. He looked at the bowl of noodles. Xu Jianguo didn't even ask him, but directly poured him another large bowl, poured some sauce on it and placed it in front of him, saying, "Uncle, I was never polite when I ate at your house, but why are you so reserved when you come to my house? You treat me like an outsider!"

"This is the dignity of the elders, you know nothing!" After saying this, he ignored the stunned Xu Jianguo and lowered his head to eat.

Xu Jianguo still overestimated the fighting power of the three people. Funiu was full after eating a little more than a small bowl, and he and Li Mancang each ate two large bowls. Even so, there were still a lot of noodles and stewed meat left.

Xu Jianguo cleaned up the dishes, drained the excess water from the noodles, and then poured the remaining noodles into the marinade.

Li Mancang drank a glass of water, thinking about the experimental field, and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, Xu Jianguo placed the small bowl of eel noodles in Li Mancang's hands and said, "Uncle, take these noodles back for Aunt and the others to try. I don't have a backpack here, so you can just carry them back like this!"
