Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.
Chapter 231 is all delicious food.
"Hurry up and bring the chicken in, there's more good food too."
Hearing their elder brother calling from the main room, several young girls ran in, each carrying a beggar's chicken.
On the octagonal table, four-happiness meatballs, garlic-flavored pork belly, and twice-cooked pork were all laid out. Chang Dashan was already drinking, taking a sip of wine and a bite of meat.
"Big brother, what is this? It smells so good."
The little ones gathered around the Four Happiness Meatballs, sniffing them intently. They had never seen such round things before. Not only did they smell delicious, but their color also looked incredibly appetizing.
Liu Meifen exclaimed from the side, "Is this the kind of food Lao Zhu makes? I hear them bragging about how amazing Lao Zhu's cooking is every day, and they're absolutely right."
"Hurry up and eat it while it's hot. We're really lucky. In the past, only people of high status would eat these pure meat Four Happiness Meatballs." Chang Dashan sipped the meat, his eyes narrowed into slits with delight.
"My son is really something, he ordered three more dishes at once." Liu Meifen felt a surge of pride as she recalled Director Song praising her son before she left work.
Four little girls, each with a four-happiness meatball stuck on a chopstick, each reluctant to eat, sticking out their tongues to lick the juice dripping from the meatballs.
"Big brother, it smells amazing!"
Chang Qing felt that the aroma was almost as good as the taste of bone marrow.
The other girls didn't have time to say anything; they all nodded vigorously in agreement with Chang Qing. Each dumpling was about the size of their fist, and one was enough to fill them up.
Changmei had already put Xiaobao to sleep on the kang (a heated brick bed), and she sat at the table looking at her younger brother, sister, and the whole family. She felt as if she had returned to the time before she got married.
Upon learning that she would be moving in five days, she felt a strange mix of emotions.
After moving, it will be difficult for the whole family to enjoy eating, drinking, and playing together in this old house again.
"Big sister, eat! What are you thinking about?" Chang Kun said, seeing Chang Mei lost in thought.
"Hey, eat! The food my little brother brought back is really good. Is this stir-fried potatoes with meat?"
"Hehe, sis, this is twice-cooked pork. It's flavorful and the meat is delicious. You should try it."
These days, twice-cooked pork is made with potato slices. Chang Kun took a bite and always felt that twice-cooked pork without garlic sprouts was missing something...
At this point, Chang Kun suddenly remembered the braised meat in his space. He was going to deliver some braised meat to his eldest sister's in-laws' house tomorrow. His eldest sister had been back at her parents' home for so many days, and he wondered how much her mother-in-law missed her grandson.
The little girls ate a few meatballs and two pheasant legs, and their bellies were already bulging. They lay sprawled on the east kang (heated brick bed) groaning.
The remaining beggar's chicken was shared and eaten by Chang Kun, Chang Mei, and their parents. By the end, the whole family was stuffed.
These days, the portions are incredibly generous. One dish is enough to feed an adult, and there's no way five people could order 15 dishes and still not be full. (Yes, I'm talking about Xibei!)
"Old Zhu looks fat and chubby, but I didn't expect him to cook so well. I should be more polite to him in the future," Liu Meifen muttered as she cleared the dishes after the meal.
"It's all meat, plus the chef's skill, this meal is really worth it." Chang Dashan picked his teeth and sighed with satisfaction.
He had never eaten so comfortably before. Even when his family had plenty of meat, he had only eaten to his heart's content. The taste of this stir-fried meat with various seasonings and fermented bean paste was on a completely different level.
"They all love it. If we can get more meat next time, we'll send it to a restaurant and have Chef Zhu cook it for us." Chang Kun felt very comfortable looking at the family's satisfied expressions.
Upon hearing this, the whole family nodded in agreement. Even Liu Meifen, who was always frugal, did not object, as the food she cooked was far inferior to what Lao Zhu cooked.
Not long after the meal, the girls were so full that they fell asleep. Liu Meifen used a braising spice packet to cook a pig's head. This pig's head had only been cooked at her aunt's house before, and it didn't taste like anything.
Chang Kun lay down on the west kang (heated brick bed) and opened the system to check.
[Ding! 50/50 fish caught, reward: 100 skewers of giant squid.]
[The current host can sense prey weighing less than 1220 jin (approximately 860 kg) within a range of 3100 meters.]
Chang Kun's eyes lit up when he saw the reward; it was an essential item for barbecue.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was in the west room, Chang Kun took out a skewer. Unexpectedly, it was already seasoned and grilled, and was still steaming hot.
A large piece of squid is skewered on a metal skewer. Taking a bite is so satisfying! It's crispy, tender, and fragrant!
He ate it in a few bites, afraid that the aroma would wake the girls, and then it would be difficult to explain where this thing came from in the middle of the night.
When they woke up the next day, the little girls had already gone up the mountain to cut grass. In order to be able to ride on Little Firebread as soon as possible, they took on the task of feeding it themselves.
As for Xiao Xiu'er, she was still sleeping with her butt sticking out and bubbles coming out of her nose.
"Mom, I'm going to Uncle Yang's house to deliver some donkey meat and pig's head meat."
"Okay, I'll deliver some to your uncle's house so your aunt can try my cooking." Liu Meifen said proudly. She simply cooked the pig's head meat again with a seasoning packet, and the flavor immediately became much more fragrant.
After quickly eating a few bites of breakfast, Chang Kun rode his bike to Yangjiatun.
When he arrived at his sister's in-laws' courtyard, he called out a few times, "Uncle Yang, Aunt Yang, are you home?"
Changmei's mother-in-law, Sun Xiaohong, was cooking at the stove when she heard the noise and came out to see: "Oh dear, it's Xiao Kun! My eldest grandson didn't come back with him?"
She rushed out, went around to the back of the bicycle to look, but didn't see her eldest grandson, and looked disappointed.
"Auntie, in a few days, after my family finishes moving, I'll bring my older sister and Xiaobao back together." Chang Kun unloaded things from the back of his bicycle.
"It'll be several more days? This is going to be too long. By then your brother-in-law will be back... Are Xiaomei and Xiaobao doing well?" Sun Xiaohong complained as she helped Chang Kun carry his things.
"Auntie, they're both doing well, they've even gained weight."
"I've heard about it all. Xiao Kun, you're really amazing now. The whole family is benefiting from your success." As she spoke, Sun Xiaohong suddenly realized something and glanced at the thing in her hand.
"Xiao Kun, are you taking these things to your aunt's house?"
"Auntie guessed right away. She hunted a wild donkey and a wild boar a couple of days ago and brought some meat over to eat." Chang Kun nodded and parked his bicycle.
"Oh dear, this won't do. You sent so many things last time. These days, no one has it easy!" Sun Xiaohong quickly pushed the things onto Chang Kun. She knew that Chang Kun's family had even more children, and it used to be difficult for them to support their family.
"Auntie, we hunted these ourselves on the mountain, so please eat them." Chang Kun didn't want to argue with Sun Xiaohong, so he asked, "Is my Uncle Yang not home?"
Sun Xiaohong glanced around and, seeing that no one was around, leaned close to Chang Kun and whispered, "You don't know, there are thieves in this village. The corn cobs in the fields are just starting to fill out, and the kernels haven't even hardened yet, and they're being stolen. They're stealing every night. Your Uncle Yang and the security team have been staking out the area for three or four nights already."
Chang Kun frowned. A thief stole corn? Someone must be starving.
