Chapter 1098: Dividing dishes
"Xiaoxiao, do you think there is too much meat in the big pot meal today?" Liu Ermei asked Lu Xiaoxiao as they walked.
"I'm not sure, but judging by the big pot meals in previous years, there shouldn't be much meat."
"Oh...you're right." Liu Ermei sighed.
"If you don't mind when I serve the food later, I can give you the meat I caught."
"No, you can keep the meat for yourself."
"I don't eat fatty meat, you know that."
"Okay, then I'll help you eat the meat reluctantly."
"Don't be so ungrateful after getting the advantage." Lu Xiaoxiao said to Liu Ermei after hearing what Liu Ermei said.
"hey-hey……."
Lu Xiaoxiao and Liu Ermei were playing and laughing all the way and soon arrived at the threshing ground. When they arrived, some people had already got the vegetables, so they quickly found a team with smaller numbers to queue up.
When it was Lu Xiaoxiao's turn to get food, the aunt serving the food took one look at her and then served her a big bowl full of food with lots of meat. Lu Xiaoxiao knew that she meant well, so she thanked her and took Liu Ermei away from the threshing ground.
"Xiaoxiao, do you know the aunt who serves the food?" Liu Ermei asked enviously after taking a look at the food in Lu Xiaoxiao's bowl.
“No.”
"Then why did she give you so much meat?"
"I'm also confused. Maybe she's taking special care of me because I suggested hunting wild boars yesterday. Let's not talk about that for now. Come home with me to have lunch. I'm counting on you to take care of the meat in my bowl."
What Lu Xiaoxiao didn't know was that her guess was correct. The woman gave her so much meat because she helped her come up with ideas on how to hunt wild boars. But her husband said that if it weren't for Lu Xiaoxiao's ideas, they might not only fail to kill so many wild boars yesterday, but might even get injured.
Lu Xiaoxiao's actions last night earned her an unprecedented good reputation in the village, and also made her life in the village more comfortable.
"Second sister, I'll go get a big bowl and pick out the pork for you." Lu Xiaoxiao said to Liu Ermei after returning home.
"good."
After Lu Xiaoxiao picked out all the meat in the bowl, she looked at Liu Ermei and said, "Second sister, can you finish this much fatty pork in one meal?"
“I can’t finish it.”
"Eat as much as you can, and take the rest home."
"good."
After lunch, Liu Ermei went home. She said she wanted to help her father boil water to process the pig's head.
After Lu Xiaoxiao sent Liu Ermei away and closed the door to the yard, she heard someone knocking on the door, so she opened the door again.
"Liu Biao, why are you here?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked Liu Biao after opening the door of the yard and seeing him.
"I would like to ask you for a favor?" Liu Biao said to Lu Xiaoxiao embarrassedly.
"What's the matter?"
"I want you to help marinate the meat I got today." After Liu Biao finished speaking, he handed the meat hidden behind him to Lu Xiaoxiao.
Lu Xiaoxiao looked at the meat in Liu Biao's hand and thought that it is better to teach a man how to fish than to give him a fish, so she said to Liu Biao: "I will teach you how to marinate the meat, and you won't have to ask anyone for help in the future."
When Liu Biao heard what Lu Xiaoxiao said, he was immediately delighted, and then he quickly nodded and said, "Okay."
"First, take the meat to the well and wash it, then hang it on the bamboo to drain the water. I will go into the house to get the ingredients for marinating the meat."
