Chapter 183 - 0183 Meeting with the Leader 3_1
Feng Qingxue bought some other items, primarily vegetables, with only a few fruits, spending a significant amount of money and coupons. After buying all the stuff, she returned to the guesthouse, borrowed a basin from the waitress, filled it with water, and kept the crucian carp in it. When she left again, she only carried the pig’s trotters, pork knuckles, and a large chunk of streaky pork.
Yes, she bought a small piece of streaky pork, but what she took out was a large piece of streaky pork, retrieved from her personal space.
Given the enormous appetites of men like Lu Jiang and Niu Yibao, a small piece of meat was barely enough to get stuck between their teeth.
Although it was hot outside and Feng Qingxue seldom ate meat, are there any men who don’t enjoy meat?
Moreover, the lack of oiliness did not bother anyone, regardless of the season.
Handing over the prepared vegetables and some grains to the canteen chef, Feng Qingxue said, "Master chef, please cook the pig’s trotters. I will come to collect them at noon. We will use the bone broth for noodles in the evening."
"Oh, such a large piece of meat!" The chef hadn’t seen a chunk of streaky pork this good in a long time. It’s excellent for making braised pork.
Feng Qingxue smiled and said, "May I trouble you to cut a piece to stir-fry at noon and preserve the rest for eating in a couple of days."
This chunk of streaky pork weighed almost three to four jin. If she finished it all at once, she would be scolded for wastefulness.
She discovered while shopping for vegetables that many city residents bought meat by the liang. Some ordered two liang of meat, some one liang. A small strip like that could be stir-fried into a large bowl of vegetables, causing much envy among those who could not afford meat.
