Liu Xiaoer hurriedly put down the pig food and rushed to the front yard. Before leaving, he didn't forget to ask Liu Xiaoyi to help him feed the pig, so he didn't dare to starve.He wondered why Zhang Ze came so early, could something have happened, or was there a surprise inspection?

Liu Xiaoer wiped his dirty hands on his body after touching the pig, but still felt that it would be more appropriate to go back and change into clean clothes before going to see Zhang Ze.

He hurried back to his room to change his coat, and saw his grandfather walking out of the kitchen with Zhang Ze.

"Xiaoer, it's just right. You go and move the half pig out of the kitchen and chop up the meat for Boss Zhang." Old man Liu was about to go to the back to call him, but he was caught in the front yard as soon as he came out.

He is getting old, and his strength is not as strong as when he was young, so all the physical work should naturally fall on Liu Xiaoer's body.

"Boss Zhang." Liu Xiaoer put on his clothes and straightened his clothes, then went to Zhang Ze and said hello. "Are you here to buy pork?"

Zhang Ze nodded, "Xiao Er, you got up quite early, and I was afraid of disturbing you when I came."

Liu Xiaoer shook his head hastily, "No, I have to feed the pigs in the morning, and they all start at that time, so don't bother me."

After hearing this, Zhang Ze sighed in his heart. It seems that raising pigs is not an easy job. He has to get up so early every day to feed the pigs. "Boss Zhang, I will cut the meat for you now." The half pig was moved out. After all, the cutting tools and operating table were all in the yard, and the kitchen was so small that it was impossible to use it.

In the end, he was stopped by old man Liu.

"Why are you wearing this today? You won't get dirty after working in such new clothes. Hurry up and change them." Seeing their profession, they must not be afraid of being dirty or tired, and they can't do it if they want to wear new clothes.

Liu Xiaoer looked down at his clothes and patted his head. "How did I forget about this?" After speaking, he burrowed into the room and put back the coat he had just taken off.

It really changed the loneliness.

Zhang Ze went to Liu Xiaoer to give him the hind legs, cut up a few catties of the five flowers, and ordered some white pork back.After all, the pork jerky is made of white pork, so take some back and give it to Captain Ma and the others to see if they think it's suitable.

Liu Xiaoer found a rope, skewered the pork and handed it to Zhang Ze.

"Is there any bacon?" Zhang Ze asked with some embarrassment.

He felt that the bacon was specially smoked for his own consumption. He suddenly wanted to buy some, but he didn't know if it was convenient for them.

"Yes." Old man Liu said straightforwardly.

He took Zhang Ze to the woodshed, where the beams were hung with dried bacon.Seeing that there were so many left, Zhang Ze was relieved.

"Boss Zhang, which one do you want? How about I pick one for you." Liu Xiaoer pointed to the biggest piece of bacon on the top, "That piece is not only big, but the meat is also good. So bright, so beautiful."

Before Zhang Ze could answer, Liu Xiaoer took an iron hook from the side and took it off.

"Boss Zhang, take a look." Liu Xiaoer took a cloth pad under the bacon and handed it to Zhang Ze.

To be honest, Zhang Ze is not very good at choosing bacon, he just thinks this piece of meat is quite big, enough for his family to eat several meals.But he believed in Liu Xiaoer's vision, so he wanted this one.

"Why did your house smoke so much, are you going to sell it?"

Liu Xiaoer smiled honestly, rubbed his hands together and said, "Yes, they are sold, and the nearby villagers take care of my family's business. Although they can also smoke, they find it troublesome, so when they want to eat, they come directly to me to get it." I will go back together, or I will give this when I give gifts during the holidays." After all, it seems that there is really no other place for this bacon except theirs.Especially the bacon made of black pork is even more rare.

Zhang Ze nodded, "Okay, you can weigh the money, and I will give you the money."

Liu Xiaoer hurriedly waved his hand, "No, Boss Zhang, you can just take it away." In the future, Boss Zhang will have to take care of it, so this bit of meat is nothing.

"That's not okay, I have to give as much as I want. Last time you gave me a load of meat and I didn't pay. How can I just take it away this time?" Zhang Ze said and took it out of his pocket. Twenty yuan was stuffed into Old Man Liu's hands. He probably estimated that the meat would weigh seven or eight catties. According to the price of pork that Old Man Liu quoted to him last time, it was about that much, not much more.

Old man Liu didn't want to pick it up, he had the same meaning with Liu Xiaoer in his heart.

"No no no, Boss Zhang can't do that." The old man Liu took the money and stuffed it with Zhang Ze. The two pushed the drama back and forth several times until Zhang Ze let it go. Only then did Old Man Liu accept the harsh words of "meat".

After buying things, Zhang Ze was ready to leave, after all, the old lady was still waiting at home.If I go back late, there will definitely be a meal.Zhang Ze hung the meat on the handle, said goodbye to the two of them, and left.

Not long after Zhang Ze had left, Liu Xiaoyi collapsed out of the room, and as soon as he came out, he searched for Zhang Ze all over the yard.

"Hey, where's Boss Zhang?" Liu Xiaoyi asked anxiously standing behind Liu Xiaoer.She just tidied up the room for a while, why didn't Boss Zhang disappear as soon as she came out.

Liu Xiaoer turned around when he heard the sound, and saw his sister's appearance, so frightened that he staggered and almost sat on the ground.

Seeing that her sister's face was pale without any color, and her mouth was red as if she had eaten a child, he almost didn't recognize her.If I ran into this at night, I would feel like I saw a ghost.

"Sister, what's wrong with your face?" Liu Xiaoer leaned his back against the wall, still not recovering from the shock, his legs were still trembling slightly.

"What's wrong with your face, doesn't it look good?" Liu Xiaoyi touched his face shyly.

She took advantage of Boss Zhang's entry into the firewood room just now, and took the opportunity to sneak back to the room, changed her clothes and dressed up.What Cuijuan put on her face was the pearl ointment that Cuijuan had just brought for herself a few days ago. She said that people in the city used it now, but it was very popular.Not to mention that the effect is quite good, as soon as you put it on your face, it will be white.

On her lips was the rouge given to her by Scallion last time when she got married. She has never been willing to use it. It is kept in a drawer, and it is the first time to apply it today.

"Why, it doesn't look good." Liu Xiaoyi twisted his braids and said coyly.

Liu Xiaoer's mouth twitched twice, he really couldn't understand his sister's taste.

Seeing that he hesitated and did not answer, Liu Xiaoyi's expression changed, and he repeated the question with a straight face, with a hint of threat in his tone.

Liu Xiaoer hurriedly said it looked good, and Liu Xiaoyi was satisfied.

"Where's the boss?"

"Let's go." Afraid that her sister would get angry again, Liu Xiaoer replied honestly.

"Leaving." Liu Xiaoyi, the boss with his mouth open, suddenly raised his voice an octave and said in surprise, "When did you leave?"

"Just now." Liu Xiaoer was so frightened by his sister that he leaned back strategically, for fear of being accidentally injured.

Liu Xiaoyi stomped her feet remorsefully, hating herself for being too slow in tidying up, if she had come out a little earlier, she might have run into Boss Zhang.I can also explain to him my rude behavior in the morning, that's all right now, no fuss.Liu Xiaoyi stamped his steps, angrily went back to the room to wash his face and change clothes.

Anyway, Boss Zhang has left too, so it's useless for her to dress up so well.

Zhang Ze rode his bicycle and arrived home very quickly. The old lady was packing vegetables for noon in the yard. When she saw him, she hurried forward and took the meat off the handlebars and weighed it twice.

"Okay, this much meat is enough."

Zhang Ze smiled while parking the car: "It must be enough, I can't finish a meal."

"When will the leader come? Do you want to pick it up now?" The old lady asked Zhang Ze while walking towards the kitchen with the meat.

Zhang Ze couldn't laugh or cry, sighed and begged, "Mom, just let me go, I didn't come until noon, you let me go now, good guy, you made me stand stupidly at the train station this morning."

The old lady giggled twice, "Aren't you afraid that you didn't pick up someone? Since it's still early, why don't you go to your room and sleep for a while."

"That's not necessary." Now that they are all up, they have already lost sleepiness after such a tossing, and they will just lie down when they go back.Zhang Ze rolled up his sleeves, squatted down by the well, picked up the dishes that the old lady hadn't finished washing, and started working.

The old lady hung the bacon in the kitchen first, and came out with two loads of meat.

"Why do these two pieces of meat look different to me?"

Zhang Ze looked up and explained: "One is black pork, and the other is white pork. The pork jerky I make for the military area is white pork, so I want to give them a taste."

The old lady nodded understandingly, "Then let's make a few dishes for lunch. I thought about it just now, see if this is okay." The old lady opened and closed her mouth and announced the names of several dishes in a row. Zhang Ze's head is getting bigger.

"You are preparing a whole set of Manchu Banquet." Zhang Ze joked.

He really didn't expect that he was just a leader of the military region, so why did the old lady take it so seriously.I've been busy since I told her yesterday, and I haven't stopped until now, from sanitation to dishes, I'm really tight.

The old lady clicked her tongue, "What is a Man-Han Banquet? My dishes are no worse than that." She said and stepped forward to pat Zhang Ze's arm. "Speak up, can this work?"

Zhang Ze thought about it for a while, and there are 6 people in his family, including 9 people in the military area.I really need so many dishes, otherwise it is really not enough.

"Okay, I think it would be better to add some soup." Captain Ma and the others are all southerners. They like to drink soup first to moisten the intestines. Zhang Ze thinks that they should respect their eating habits.

The old lady also thinks it's okay, but she doesn't know how to make soup.The northerners usually drink soup when they eat, and occasionally whole egg soup, so I don’t know if the southerners are good at it.

Zhang Ze said that he would make it, and the fresh black pork just got today can cook a pot of delicious pork soup.

He and the old lady washed and cut one by one, and quickly prepared the dishes needed for noon.It was almost time, so Zhang Ze was going to walk to Factory Manager Wang to pick up the car before picking up people.Unexpectedly, as soon as he put down the apron, he heard a horn sound from outside the door.

"Zhang Aijun."

When Zhang Ze went outside, he saw Yang Jiang rolled down the window and sat in the car with a smug smile on his face.

"How is it? Do you think I'm handsome in driving?" Yang Jiang lifted his chin and tossed his hair back as he spoke, looking particularly unbearable.
