Chapter 251 Braised Pork
After a while, Liu Haizhong came to the door.
"Uncle, are you here to order pork?" He Lai said with a smile.
"Well, Xiao Laizi is smart. Didn't Second Master come here to ask for pork for them?"
There was no bangs to cover it, and it was almost as white as a sheet of paper in front of He Lai.
He Lai looked at Wu Juan, and Wu Juan waved her hand, indicating that you should handle it yourself.
"Uncle, one pound per family, fifty cents per pound, no ticket required. Is that ok?"
"Okay. Xiao Laizi is a man of honor. I thank you on behalf of everyone in the compound."
"Rainwater, cut the meat."
"Okay, come on brother."
Yu Shui went to the kitchen again and took a knife and a scale to prepare the pork.
"You little brat, go help. You're so old, but you're still ordering the rain to do the work."
Wu Juan cursed with a smile.
"No, no, Xiao Laizi, just sit there and grandma will help you weigh it."
After saying this, Old Mrs. He stood up and went into the kitchen.
Soon the two men came out, Yu Shui holding the pork in both hands.
"Second uncle, there are more than 19 kilograms here. I'll give it to you. It's definitely enough to share."
Because of He Lai, several families disappeared from Yard 95. After all, the Zhang family and Li Dawa's family in the backyard bought an extra house because of He Lai a long time ago; He Lai and Liu Haizhong also bought a house each.
"Thank you for the rain, little Laizi, I will leave first."
"Second uncle, take care."
Liu Haizhong got the pork and went to the yard to distribute it.
He Lai said that he would not give pork to No. 95, and it would be good to let the second uncle do this.
Think about Jia Zhang and Yan Fugui, the scene would be too troublesome.
But He Lai was overthinking it, there was no farce at all in the scene.
Liu Haizhong asked the second aunt to put the table and chopping board outside the house and distributed them to each family one by one.
Thanks to the fact that the meat given by Director Wang was almost the same and no leftovers were given to He Lai, everyone was quite satisfied, at least on the surface.
Jia Zhang didn't even go out. She should live a very comfortable life now. She could just leave the task of buying pork to her daughter-in-law.
Jia Zhang had already experienced the joy that the deaf old man had experienced when he was served by Yi Zhonghai's family.
Zhang Guihua cooked lunch in the morning, and she could just heat it up and eat it. Now she was only responsible for sewing the soles of shoes, and Banggeng played with Xiaoyangzi every day, so she didn't need to take care of him.
Yan Fugui had a little idea and deliberately came last to buy, intending to see if there was any extra meat so that he could share some of it later.
Unfortunately, the second aunt didn't give him a chance and took the meat away directly. In the end, Liu Haizhong gave him the minced meat on the chopping board, and the matter was resolved.
He Zhan also came back after everyone had distributed the meat. With the warm greetings from the people in the yard, he returned to the backyard.
I was relieved to see He Lai was still there, after all, it was rare for He Lai to stay at home on weekends.
"Xiao Laizi, you're here, so your father doesn't have to go looking for you." He Zhan sat down and drank a glass of water.
"What's going on? It can't be about the wild boar."
When He looked at He Zhan's expression, he knew it must be about this. The Red Star Steel Mill must be jealous.
"Yes, just help your father draw that blueprint again."
"What's wrong? Didn't Director Yang look at it? Can't he figure it out?"
He Lai looked at his father speechlessly.
"That Factory Manager Yang said he asked someone to get it, but your uncle Liu said it might not be safe, so it would be better for you to draw it."
He Zhan said with a smile.
"Dad, I finally got a break. What if Director Yang figured it out? Wouldn't it be a waste of time? This blueprint was very difficult to draw. I spent several days on it.
Why not wait until they are no longer able to do so? "
He Lai didn't want to paint for Director Yang. After all, it was his own thing and he couldn't rush to send it to others.
I am not afraid of offending Director Yang. This man doesn't have any great ability. At most, he can make things difficult for me. But I have someone behind me, so I don't believe he dares to do anything wrong!
"Why paint? Let's do that after we get to work. I'm just trying to find something for my son to do every day."
When Wu Juan heard that He was asked to work on weekends, she immediately disagreed.
"alright."
He Zhan saw that what He said made sense, so he had no choice but to agree.
He Lai saw that his cheap father was a little unhappy, so he made a suggestion.
"Dad, how about this? We can borrow Director Wang's iron fence first. They have pork now anyway. I just heard that the iron fence has been taken down."
"Is it okay? Let's go now." He Zhan thought this was a good idea.
"Why are you walking? It's time for dinner, don't you know?" Wu Juan looked at He Zhan speechlessly.
"Then eat first, eat first! Xiao Laizi, you are really my good son!"
He Zhan now feels relieved. Although he didn't get the blueprints, he got the iron fence.
"Then Dad and Mom, you guys eat. I'm going to Brother Zhuzi's house to eat. My little wild boar is still there."
"Okay, go ahead, go ahead." Wu Juan said with a smile.
He Lai took Yu Shui to Sha Zhu's house.
"Brother Zhuzi, how is my little wild boar? Oh, Uncle He is here today too."
He Lai just entered the room and shouted.
"You are really good, I heard you caught a lot of wild boars?"
He Daqing held his granddaughter Meng'er and looked at He Lai with a smile.
"What's the matter, Uncle He, are you interested? Want to get involved?" He Lai said with a smile.
"Forget it. You should save your uncle He's old bones for cooking. You should braise more than half of your wild boar and use the remaining part to cook."
"Is it ready? I want to eat it." He Lai said with a smile. It's well braised and smells delicious!
"It's almost done. Take it out of the pot soon." Sha Zhu said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll wait for a while. It's reliable to have Brother Zhuzi here!"
Seeing that there was no one in the rocking chair, He Lai lay down on it.
"Uncle Lai." Xier shouted and threw herself into He Lai's arms.
He Lai quickly caught her, fearing that she would fall.
"Xi'er, you should lose weight. Uncle can't hold you anymore."
"I don't believe it. Mom said Xier has to eat more, otherwise she won't grow taller."
He Lai and Xi'er were joking with each other when Sha Zhu came out with a plate of braised meat.
"Come, try your brother Zhuzi's cooking." Sha Zhu put the plate on the table.
He Lai quickly sat up, picked up a piece of braised meat and put it in his mouth, "Hmm... delicious! Brother Zhuzi's cooking skills are still so good!"
"No, don't you see who I am?" Sha Zhu looked smug.
Everyone laughed out loud.
After a while, rain and spring came in.
"Yushui, Chun'er, you two go take a bowl of braised meat to mom's place, and call my dad, Damao, Guangtian, and Huzi to come over, so we can eat together."
He Lai ordered.
"Okay." "Okay." Yu Shui and the other man filled a bowl of meat and went to call people.
……
After a while, He Zhan and his companions came over with wine and food.
There were a lot of people sitting at the table, and the table was also filled with dishes, with a large plate of braised pork in the middle.
"Dad, you can't drink too much. We have to work in the afternoon." He came to see He Zhan and He Daqing starting to drink, and reminded them.
"I know, I know. You're still controlling your father."
When He Zhan heard this, he didn't drink all the wine in the small cup, but just took a sip.
"Uncle He, how about I ask Uncle Er to come over and drink with you?"
He Lai said with a smile.
"Forget it, I'm fine like this. Hey, grandson and granddaughter, come on, Xiao Yangzi, open your mouth."
After saying that, He Daqing stuffed a piece of meat into Xiao Yangzi's mouth.
"Then you guys drink slowly, I'll gnaw on a pig's head first!" He Lai didn't want to drink much, so he took the pig's head from the plate and started gnawing on it.
The rest of the people laughed when they saw He Lai eating like this.
"Grandpa, I want a pig's head too. I want to eat a pig's head, too." Xiao Yangzi became envious when he saw He Lai eating so happily, and immediately called He Daqing.
"Okay, I'll give it to you. Be careful with the heat!" He Daqing smiled as he took out the pig's head and gave it to Xiao Yangzi.
Xiao Yangzi took the pig's head and squatted next to He Lai and started to gnaw on it. In fact, there is quite a lot of meat on the pig's head, especially for this kind of little pig. After being braised, it is very delicious!
Xier also ran to He Lai and started asking for meat, after all, those guys started drinking.
He Zhan and his friends chatted and drank slowly, and Guangtian was also pulled over to have a few drinks.
After the meal, all the food on the table was gone, not to mention the two little wild boars. Even the soup was taken up by people. More than 20 kilograms of meat was still not enough!
It’s okay, wait until the wild boar in the space grows up, and let Sha Zhu do it every day!
After eating, Sha Zhu and the others realized that they had finished the meat and looked at He Lai a little embarrassed.
"It's okay. I have plenty of pork. We have to go get some tonight. Next time, I'll make you eat until you vomit!"
He Lai said with a smile.
"Really? Xiao Laizi, take me to see it?" Sha Zhu immediately became interested, and the others also looked over with intriguing expressions.
"It's no use going there. We'll just put up an iron fence and leave two people there to guard it, and then we'll come back."
He Lai explained.
"Then we can catch some wild rabbits, badgers and the like nearby. It's been a while since you brought badger oil to the master."
A reminder from Shazhu.
"Well, then fine, I'll take you there. Oh, don't look at me, Damao, you should go too. Don't go during the day, just go study."
He Lai couldn't stand the looks from others anymore, so he had to take Xu Damao with him.
"Yes, yes, studying is important. Xiao Yangzi, you should also go study with Aunt Yushui."
Shazhu quickly echoed the words.
After He finished speaking, the others gave up the idea of going together.
