Was the food edible?
After tasting the delicious braised pork ribs, Lan Dazhuang took a bite of the crispy fried meat. Then, he ate the fragrant and soft meat bun with thin skin. Finally, he drank the pure broth. Lan Dazhuang finally knew that his sister really did know how to cook!
Lan Shu also delivered lunch to her parents at the union and school respectively.
Usually, when she delivered food, she would bring over a large enamel container. Today, the braised pork ribs took up too much space, so in addition to the enamel container, she also prepared two bowls of pork ribs and crispy fried meat and put them in a basket.
The food was delivered to Lan Shengli’s hands. Looking at the five meat buns and a bowl of fragrant meat that his precious daughter had brought, Lan Shengli’s eyes widened in shock!
As for the broth, it was not easy to bring it all the way here.
But even without the broth, Lan Shengli’s lunch could definitely be said to be the top in the entire village!
The village officials, who were eating their packed food with him, had long been attracted by the fragrance. Now that they saw Lan Shengli eating meat in big mouthfuls, they instantly felt that their food was not tasty at all.
The same thing happened in the school.
However, the situation was not like when Lan Shengli was attracted by the delicious food.
Chang Chunfang only ate two meat buns. As for the pork ribs and crispy fried meat, she just took a small taste. She shared the rest with the children who leaned against the window to watch her after smelling the aroma of the meat.
Chang Chunfang did not always share her lunch with others. It was just that the amount of meat her daughter sent over this time was too much, and the children could not resist the temptation of the meat…
…
By the time Lan Shu returned from delivering food, Lan Dazhuang had already stuffed five fist-sized meat buns into his stomach!
He had also eaten a lot of braised pork ribs and crispy fried meat. He had even drunk three bowls of meat soup!
Although he was already full, the delicious food in front of him made Lan Dazhuang feel that he could continue eating.
Xiao Bai, who was sitting opposite Lan Dazhuang, had yet to start eating. Although the food was delicious, his upbringing was deeply engraved in his bones. It made him want to wait for Sister Lan to come back so that they could eat together.
Upon seeing Sister Lan enter, Xiao Bai immediately got up and went to the kitchen to scoop two bowls of soup as well as stewed pork ribs.
Lan Shu had already gotten used to Xiao Bai waiting for her to come back before eating together.
She washed her hands and sat at the dining table before eating.
Lan Shu drank some soup to nourish her stomach before eating the braised pork ribs and steamed meat buns that she made.
The pork ribs tasted fresh and fragrant, and the texture was soft and tender.
Although the buns did not look very white, the flour used to make the buns was ground wheat planted by the villagers themselves. There were no other additions. The steamed buns made from such flour were very fragrant and soft. The taste of it combined with the meat filling was simply superb!
Lan Shu ate a bun and drank a bowl of soup. She also had four pieces of pork ribs and three pieces of crispy fried meat. After that, she put down her bowl and chopsticks.
No matter how delicious the food in front of her was, she could not forget that she was still on a diet!
Her weight loss this month was very effective. She had lost more than 30 catties from her original weight.
Now, Lan Shu, who weighed more than 120 catties, had already changed from being fat to being slightly fat.
She had basically gotten rid of the label of ‘fatty’. What she had to do next was to continue to slim down until she was about 100 pounds.
Seeing that Lan Shu did not eat much, Xiao Bai was really surprised.
In order to lose weight, Sister Lan strictly controlled her appetite. He knew this very well.
However, Xiao Bai did not expect Sister Lan to be able to control her appetite when faced with so many delicious foods.
Such perseverance really made him admire her from the bottom of his heart!
Although Sister Lan could control herself and stop eating just like that, Xiao Bai could not.
He did not expect Sister Lan to be so good at cooking!
Even though he had lost his memory, he felt that he had never eaten such delicious food in the past!
If he didn’t eat more now, he wouldn’t know when he would be able to eat such delicious food again.
Therefore, although Xiao Bai did not eat as much as Brother Dazhuang, he still ate four meat buns, two bowls of pork rib soup, and a lot of crispy meat and braised pork ribs.
At the end of the meal, Lan Dazhuang’s stomach was so full that he needed to support himself against the wall.
Xiao Bai was also stuffed, but his condition was much better than Lan Dazhuang’s.
At the side, Lan Shu, who didn’t witness Lan Dazhuang’s appetite, watched as Xiao Bai chewed slowly and elegantly ate a shocking amount of food. She couldn’t help but look down and suspiciously glanced at Xiao Bai’s flat stomach which seemed as usual.
Lan Shu: “?”
Was there an alternate dimension hidden in Xiao Bai’s stomach?
After eating so much food, why wasn’t it noticeable at all?
Unlike her, whose stomach was bulging just from eating a little.
Xiao Bai’s figure made her a little envious…
…
From noon to night, the Lan family ate all the ten catties of ribs that Lan Shu made!
There were still a few buns left. There was only half a bowl of crispy meat left and about three to four catties of pork belly. Lan Shu put them in a bowl and sprinkled salt on them to prevent them from spoiling due to the heat.
It was not that the Lan family had never eaten so much meat before, but they had never felt that eating meat could be so satisfying!
Lan Shengli was even unsatisfied. He thought how good it would be if he could eat like this every day…
However, he also knew that although his family’s conditions were better than most families in the village, they definitely could not afford to eat so much meat every day.
Their father’s thoughts were almost written all over his face. When Lan Shu saw this, she naturally had to say a few words to boost his spirits.
“Dad, our good days are just starting. When the orchards and free-range chicken farms on our mountain are ready, it won’t be a problem for our family to eat meat every day!”
She continued to draw out the big picture for everyone.
When Lan Shengli heard this, his worries immediately dissipated and he regained his good mood.
“My daughter is right. Our good days are just starting!”
Beside him, Lan Dazhuang listened to his father and nodded in agreement.
Chang Chunfang smiled, believing her daughter’s words.
Although Xiao Bai felt that Sister Lan was right, he still felt that something was amiss.
As he could not figure it out, Xiao Bai decided not to think about it.
He believed that what Sister Lan said would definitely come true.
…
In October, the weather was no longer that hot. Every morning and night, there was a cool breeze lingering above Tianshui Village.
The weather was good, so Lan Shu was happy to come out for a walk.
Over the past few days, she had gone to the back of the mountain to see the situation in the orchards and the free-range chicken farm.
It had been more than a week since the fruit saplings had taken root. Other than a few trees with withered leaves, they were generally growing well.
The 160 chicks had also grown up a little. In just a few days, they had changed quite a bit.
Although this change was gratifying, there were also some problems.
