Tong Sanlang came this time, partly to probe into getting closer to Qiao Xiaomai, and partly because he genuinely wanted to prepare Tong Tiehu’s birthday banquet well.
There had been a change in Qiao Xiaomai, and recently she has been constantly coming up with new dishes, he believed she had even more novel ideas.
Qiao Xiaomai was unaware that Tong Sanlang had just probed her, and upon hearing this, she was slightly moved.
Three pigs…
Images of delicacies like pork blood, pork trotters, pork liver, pork heart, pork lungs, pig tail, and pig head meat quickly flashed through her mind.
Compared to lean and fat meat, she preferred these pork offal.
Zhuang Luhe and the original host would prepare the pork dishes, but their methods were quite simple, they would stew everything together with various seasonings, then add Zhuang Luhe’s special sauce, so the taste was quite good.
Jiang Zhuangzhuang fell in love with the original host because of this.
But in Qiao Xiaomai’s eyes, this method was too crude.
Also, with the pork shoulder, pork chops, pork spine, pork tenderloin and all, Zhuang Luhe and the original host would either stir-fry, stew, or steam them. Their taste was delicious in comparison to an average person, but in Qiao Xiaomai’s current perspective, it’s a bit crude too.
The key point is, there’s no Braised Pork here.
Braised Pork, also called Braised Pork Belly, such a dish, is nowhere to be found here!
Thinking of the deliciousness of the Braised Pork, saliva unconsciously appeared in Qiao Xiaomai’s mouth, who had just had breakfast.
She had cooked it once before, it’s been several days now, and she was craving it again.
Aside from that, all sorts of meat dishes like Preserved Vegetable Braised Pork, crispy pork roast, Steamed Pork with Rice Flour, etc. also flew past quickly in her mind. So much meat!
Qiao Xiaomai got excited, three pigs, for her to play with!
As a foodie, and a foodie that loves to personally make all kinds of delicacies, this was truly a pleasing thing!
“Miss Qiao?” Seeing that she did not respond, and that her long eyelashes kept trembling, and her shiny black eyes kept moving around, Tong Sanlang couldn’t help but speak.
“Ah?” Hearing the call, Qiao Xiaomai snapped back from pig heaven. She looked up at Tong Sanlang, regret flashing in her peach blossom eyes.
She was actually daydreaming!
“I’m asking, if you have any dishes you want to prepare, let me know.” Tong Sanlang repeated.
Coughing lightly twice, Qiao Xiaomai struck a serious and solemn pose, “Um…I have a lot.”
“What are they all?”
Qiao Xiaomai began to count on her fingers, “Pork Belly, I want to try a new pattern, and also those pig offal, I also want to change the pattern.”
“If you’re not confident in me, I can go buy some pig offal first, and let you and Grandpa Tong taste it after I’ve cooked it.” Afraid that Tong Sanlang wouldn’t believe her, Qiao Xiaomai added.
Tong Sanlang chuckled lightly and said, “I trust your cooking skills, but this matter concerns my grandfather’s reputation, um…you can go ahead and prepare some for me to taste first, what do you need?”
After saying this, without waiting for Qiao Xiaomai to speak, he continued, “Are you busy later? If not, let’s go to town together, you can pick out the items, and I’ll pay for them, how about it?”
See, by using this excuse, he could extend their time together.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai hesitated. She planned to go with Qiao Changshun to check the wheat fields today. Jiji Residence had given her the wheat fields and the slope, but she hadn’t gone to see them yet.
Qiao Changshun was sitting in the shed making the wooden boxes needed for sprouting beans, all the while eavesdropping on Tong Sanlang and Qiao Xiaomai’s conversation. Seeing Qiao Xiaomai not speaking now, he hurriedly said, “She’s not busy, she’s not busy at all. Xiaomai, a young girl, doesn’t have much to do. You guys go to town.”
Such a good opportunity to be alone, he definitely couldn’t refuse..
