"Have you ever eaten it before? I thought you were like me, you've never seen the world, hehe," Ah Chou felt embarrassed now. She leaned over and bit the golden sweet and sour pork, nodding her head while chewing. "It's delicious, really delicious!"
"Am I right?" Zhong Mingwei said with a smile, while eating the remaining half of the sweet and sour pork.
Ah Chou looked at his bulging cheeks and blushed a little. That piece of sweet and sour pork was what she had left, and it was still stained with her saliva. How could Zhong Mingwei eat what she had left?
But Zhong Mingwei obviously didn't care about that. While eating the sweet and sour pork, he went to get a piece of smoked meat pie, broke it in half and handed half to Ah Chou. He also started eating it himself.
"This is delicious, with lots of meat inside," Ah Chou's cheeks bulged as he ate. His words were slurred. He then said to Zhong Mingwei, "Eat more. I bought four pieces. I'll only eat one piece at most. You can take the rest."
"Why did you suddenly buy so much food?" Zhong Mingwei asked Ah Chou while eating a cake.
Ah Chou never let him go hungry, cooking for him in different ways every day, so he could have meat every two or three days. But it had never been so rich, so Zhong Mingwei was naturally curious.
"Hehe, I had a good thing happen to me today," Ah Chou had thought about how to deal with Zhong Mingwei's words on the way, but since she was lying, she couldn't help but lower her head. While biting the meat pie, she said vaguely, "I'm good at embroidery, and the people in the village like it. Several families who want to marry their daughters after the New Year have found Grandma Chen and asked me to do embroidery for them. Look, they paid the deposit first, and now my embroidery price has increased. Hehe, the deposit alone is three taels of silver, so we are not short of money!"
"Oh," Zhong Mingwei nodded, stretched out his hand to pinch off a small piece of meat residue from the corner of Ah Chou's mouth, and stuffed it into his mouth, while saying, "Then don't buy so much at once in the future. It's quite expensive, and you can't finish it. What a waste."
"It's not that I buy it often, but I'm just happy today." Ah Chou licked her lips, feeling a little shy. Zhong Mingwei was becoming more and more casual with her, and she was feeling more and more embarrassed.
After finishing the meat pie, Zhong Mingwei brought over the bowl of braised bones. There were two big bones in total. Zhong Mingwei picked the big one and handed it to Ah Chou, but Ah Chou reached out to take the small one in the bowl. Zhong Mingwei was so busy that he covered the bowl and stuffed the big one into her hand: "I've been sitting for most of the day and I'm not hungry at all. How can I eat such a big piece?"
"It just looks big, but there's not much meat on it. How can you not eat it?" Ah Chou was unhappy and protested to Zhong Mingwei with a pout.
"Eat quickly. If you eat it after it gets cold, you'll get a stomachache." Zhong Mingwei urged her again.
Ah Chou had no choice but to gnaw on the big bone. She was actually a little embarrassed to gnaw on the bone in front of Zhong Mingwei, as she felt it was very unpresentable. But seeing Zhong Mingwei gnawing on it vigorously, she was not so embarrassed anymore, and she also started gnawing on the big bone. Ah Chou had not gnawed a bone so happily for a long time. She was a meat lover, but she had never had many opportunities to eat bones since she was a child. It was only in the past that Eunuch Xie had secretly left her a few big bones.
"Is it delicious?" Ah Chou asked Zhong Mingwei while gnawing on a bone. Seeing Zhong Mingwei's greasy mouth, he couldn't help but chuckle, "It's a good thing I cut your beard, otherwise your beard would be covered with greasy spots, and I don't know how difficult it would be to wash your face!"
Zhong Mingwei looked at Ah Chou's greasy face and couldn't help laughing: "We are just as good as each other, so don't make fun of each other."
"Hehehe, then you are half a catty and I am eight ounces. After all, I am better than you, hehe." Ah Chou was eating happily and in a good mood. At this time, two dimples the size of soybeans appeared on her cheeks. However, she didn't enjoy the happiness for long as she suddenly burped.
