Reborn in the 1980s: I made my fortune hunting wild game in Changbai Mountain
Chapter 363 If you give too much, it will be worthless
Chapter 363 If you give too much, it will be worthless
“Can’t I invite you to dinner if there’s nothing wrong?” Wang Xiaona glanced at Yue Feng in dissatisfaction when she heard this.
“How dare you talk like that? I’ll punish you!!”
Yue Feng didn’t indulge the wife in front of him. He rubbed her head with his hands, and her fine hair looked like it had been drilled through a pile of firewood.
“You bastard, you dare to attack me! I’ll bite you!!”
Girls from Northeast China are really gentle, but when they get angry, they can be really fierce.
Wang Xiaona held Yue Feng’s arm and pretended to bite him.
Yue Feng pulled his arm away, broke free from the other party’s grip, and swiftly supported Wang Xiaona’s chin.
“Come on, bite it!”
“Hmph! I’m not going to pay attention to you!” Seeing that she couldn’t get any advantage, Wang Xiaona got angry like a little hamster.
Seeing that the time was almost right, Yue Feng didn’t dare to tease her anymore and let go.
“Okay, I won’t tease you anymore! What’s going on? Are there guests coming to our house? Or are we just our own family having a simple meal?” Yue Feng let go of his wife and asked seriously.
It was just a couple’s quarrel, and when Wang Xiaona saw Yue Feng had stopped making noise, she calmed down and said, “The organization study session is coming to an end, and the things you brought for my dad last time have also been delivered!
The town leader insisted to my dad that he wanted to meet you, so he asked to come to our house for dinner tonight!”
After hearing this, Yue Feng stood up from the edge of the kang.
“I see, it’s a piece of cake! Come on, follow me down to the cellar, I’ll get something!”
“What are you going to get? Do you want me to go to the cellar with you? It’s pitch black down there and you can’t see clearly!”
“Just come if I tell you to! Hurry up!”
Yue Feng picked up a flashlight from the kang and took Wang Xiaona out of the north room.
In rural areas of Northeast China, every household has a cellar, which is mainly used to store vegetables and meat.
The entrance to Yue Feng’s cellar is near the northwest corner of the warehouse. It’s almost dark now, and you can’t see clearly when you go down, so you need a flashlight.
Yue Feng handed the flashlight to Wang Xiaona, then he went down the ladder from the entrance, picked up a knife, and cut two pieces of wild boar meat.
These two pieces of meat are from the pork belly. In comparison, they are a little fatter than the hindquarters made in the second canteen yesterday.
There was not much meat, one piece was two and a half pounds, and the other was almost three pounds. Yue Feng had already divided them when cutting.
“Leaders, Xiaona, I forgot to ask you just now!” Yue Feng looked up and asked after cutting the meat.
“There seem to be two, one is the town secretary, and the other is a director of something! What are you doing? Cutting meat to give away? We still have a lot of wild boar meat at home, so you don’t need to take it, right?”
Wang Xiaona looked at the meat Yue Feng was cutting and asked curiously.
“I’ll tell you when we get up there!” As he spoke, Yue Feng flipped over and lifted out the entire front leg.
Soon, Yue Feng climbed out of the cellar with the meat and said, “This leg is for your family. Let the two leaders take these two pieces of meat with them when they leave!”
“Isn’t this… inappropriate?”
Wang Xiaona glanced at the meat in Yue Feng’s hand, tried hard to think of the words, and spoke in a low voice with a bit of restraint.
“Ok?”
“I don’t mean to be disrespectful. The main thing is that they are leaders of the town. Can we just give each of them a piece of meat? This piece of meat weighs three pounds?”
Wang Xiaona’s concern is quite normal. If ordinary people were to give a few kilograms of meat as a gift, it would be a lot. But giving three kilograms of meat to the town leaders is indeed a bit embarrassing!
Yue Feng grinned: “You know shit! These are too much! Don’t worry about it! I know what’s going on!”
When have you ever seen me fail in doing something? I definitely have my reasons for doing this!”
Wang Xiaona was unable to refute this. Ever since the two of them got together, Yue Feng had never failed to do everything right.
“Alright then! Just follow your plan and don’t mess things up for my dad!”
“If you give too much, it’s worthless! This meat is precious. Let my aunt cook it later and you’ll know! Let’s go to your house!”
“Okay, let’s go!!”
Wang Xiaona naturally put her arm around Yue Feng’s arm, and before leaving, she said hello to her parents in the east room and went to Wang Xiaona’s house.
At Wang Xiaona’s home, the town leaders had not arrived yet, and her mother-in-law Zhang Cuilian was busy in the kitchen.
Many ingredients have been prepared in advance, and many of them are hard-to-eat dishes specially bought from the market. It is obvious that they have been fully prepared in advance.
“Aunt! Are you busy? My uncle hasn’t come back yet?”
Yue Feng pushed the door open and walked into the house, greeting everyone while holding some meat.
“Xiao Feng is here! Your uncle won’t be back until after six! Why are you carrying meat? We still have a lot of meat at home. If you bring it here every now and then, we won’t be able to finish it by the New Year!”
Zhang Cuilian put down the work in her hands and came over to take the meat from her brother-in-law.
“These are different! Keep them separately and don’t mix them up!”
“Hmm? What’s the difference? They look almost the same!”
“These two pieces of pork belly are for the leaders who are coming here!
Cut this pork leg into pieces of about two pounds, cook it in a pot of water, without adding anything else, and remove it from the pot when you can still insert chopsticks! Sharpen the knife and cut as thinly as possible. If the knife is not sharp, I will help you sharpen it now!
Then prepare three different dipping sauces: sweet and spicy, garlic and spicy, and sweet and sour! The approximate ingredients are…”
Yue Feng did not mind the trouble and repeated to his mother-in-law in detail the method of cooking boiled pork that he had learned from Master Niu not long ago.
“This… isn’t difficult to make. Are you sure you can do it? How can you eat plain white meat like this? It doesn’t taste good!”
Zhang Cuilian is also the logistics minister of the family, and she has never heard of the approach that Yue Feng mentioned.
“Believe me! This meat is different. It’s good enough to be served at a state banquet.
I asked someone to try it, and this one dish alone can definitely stun all the leaders!
By the way, this dish should be served last, as the finale! Don’t cut too much, two pounds is enough, more will make people feel that it is not worth the money! ”
After hearing her son-in-law’s instructions, the mother-in-law immediately realized that the ordinary-looking meat in front of her was not an ordinary item.
“Okay, let’s do as you say! What about these two pieces?”
“When you leave, give these two pieces to the leaders. Whoever has a higher rank will take the bigger piece!” Yue Feng continued.
“Got it! You are a steady kid, I will definitely be right if I listen to you!”
“Hey! I can’t help you with anything else. Do you need your kitchen knife sharpened? Can I help you sharpen it?”
“If you want to slice as thinly as possible, the knife really needs to be sharpened!”
“I’ll do it! I can grind this thing!”
Yue Feng quickly took the kitchen knife and the whetstone from his mother-in-law, fetched a basin of water from the vat, and squatted at the door, grunting as he began to sharpen the knife.
The knife was sharpened and it was completely dark. The barking of the guard dog was heard in the yard. Yue Feng and his wife looked at each other. A distinguished guest had arrived!
The two of them immediately opened the door and went out to greet them. Sure enough, a car stopped at the door, and the father-in-law Wang Jianguo and two other leaders got out of the car.
“Uncle! Uncle! Welcome, welcome!” Yue Feng took a few looks at the person who came and greeted him with confidence.
There were four people in the car, the car was not turned off and the driver did not get out.
A man in his early fifties wearing a Zhongshan suit should be the mayor.
The other one was a little younger, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, probably around 45 years old, and looked a little feminine. He should be the director Xiaona was talking about.
“Xiao Feng is here early! Mayor Liu, Director Sun, let me introduce you. This is my future son-in-law, Yue Feng. Just call him Xiao Feng! We just got engaged a few days ago, and we can attend the wedding next year!” Wang Jianguo introduced with a smile.
Liu Yunshan raised his head and glanced at Yue Feng. He was tall, with sparkling eyes. He was not very old, but he seemed very steady in dealing with people. He gave a very good first impression.
“Old Wang, you have a good son-in-law, a spirited young man!” said Mayor Liu.
“Hehe, uncle, I’d be so proud if you said so!” Yue Feng interjected at the right time.
“Haha, you know how to drink? We’re going to have to drink some tonight!”
“I usually don’t have a good alcohol tolerance, I get drunk after drinking just 200g of alcohol, but tonight I’m going to try harder!
It’s cold outside, let’s not stay outside, let’s go inside!!”
“go!”
Soon, Yue Feng led the two leaders into the house as family members.
Pour water, make tea, and serve melon seeds.
Normally, he would be a guest at his father-in-law’s house, but today, Yue Feng was not at all pretentious and acted like a married son-in-law.
The entire process of serving guests is very efficient and even the most picky person would not be able to find fault with it.
When the guests arrived, the kitchen immediately became busy. The masters went straight to the table on the kang, while Xiaona and her mother were busy in the kitchen.
Yue Feng poured tea for the guests and chatted with them about trivial matters. Soon, the hot food was served.
Being shy is not popular in Northeast China. The elders prefer those children who are “adventurous”, straightforward and upright, and everyone is willing to take a second look at them.
Yue Feng played such a role today. When Wang Jianguo gave people wine and other things, Liu Yunshan was quite frightened.
Whether it was the cigarettes and tea for the officers’ association, or the Maotai and leopard bone wine for the state banquet, they were not something that ordinary people could afford.
Why do I want to emphasize it again? I want to meet Wang Jianguo’s brother-in-law because I want to verify one last time whether this is true or not.
After seeing this in person, most of the doubts in Mayor Liu’s heart were dispelled.
In terms of age, Yue Feng is indeed young, but he cannot fake the maturity in the way he deals with people and speaks to them.
It is normal for such young people to have some achievements and some powerful connections.
If he is the kind of person who can do nothing even if someone good comes to him, he won’t be able to seize the opportunity.
Now, just the first impression after meeting has indirectly confirmed the previous speculation.
After a few drinks, I can ask almost everything.
After all, there is still room for adjustment in organizing the study of the final admission list.
