Chapter 206 Roast Meat
Since they were helping with the barbecue, Mrs. Mutai and Aunt Zong naturally agreed, and they walked to the stove together.
They built two stoves in total. After all, there were so many people here. If they cooked together, it would take a lot of effort with only one stove.
In order to seize the time to bake as much barbecue as possible, Ruan He lit the fires on both stoves at the same time and set up the two pots stored at home.
Ruan He asked Aunt Zong and Mu Yunxiao to cut the wild boar leg into small pieces, while he was responsible for squatting next to the stove to add firewood.
Seeing the flames on the stove roaring, Ruan He stood up and ordered Mu Yunchao to bring all the needed cooking bottles.
Seeing that the fire was raging, Ruan He turned his head and looked at the meat cutting board, planning to go over and have a look to see if he could help.
Cutting meat is a troublesome job. Those wild boar meats have been exposed to the sun for so long and are very hard. In addition, their knives are not too sharp, so it is difficult to cut them.
What he didn't expect was that Ruan He thought that a general like Mu Yunxiao would be unfamiliar with such kitchen work, but he didn't expect that Mu Yunxiao was quite neat at the job. The pieces of meat were cut neatly and in moderate sizes, even Much better than Aunt Zong on the side.
Ruan He glanced at him, raised his eyebrows slightly, and couldn't help but joked: "I didn't expect the general to be so good at cutting meat and vegetables?"
"Yes, Xiao'er is a diligent child when he urinates." Mrs. Mu saw this scene and smiled kindly and agreed, with the intention of promoting her grandson to Ruan He.
Mrs. Mutai was older, and her mind was much more thoughtful and sharp than her juniors. She always felt that Ruan He was someone they could not keep, and she always wanted to keep this daughter-in-law for her grandson.
Ruan He smiled helplessly and didn't say anything more. He said to Mrs. Mu on the side, "I'll help cut the meat too, and grandma will help with lighting the fire."
Since she called everyone over, she had to assign tasks to everyone. Mrs. Mutai was old and could not do such delicate work as cutting meat, so Ruan He only dared to let his grandmother watch the fire.
The whole family was busy at the stove for two hours, constantly cutting the sun-dried wild boar meat into small pieces or thin strips, and then throwing them into the pot one by one to cook, making it into something delicious. The butcher shop that had been carried for a long time made a dozen kilograms, which was enough for these officials to eat for a long time. They used up a whole big wild boar leg.
Seeing that the roast was almost done, Ruan He turned to Mu Yunchao to get some large baggage. She sealed the roasted pork breasts in a bamboo basket, put them in the baggage and packed them carefully.
The ten kilograms of pork breasts were heavy when lifted, and the whole stove was filled with the aroma of steaming meat after bacon. They washed their hands and then walked out of the small kitchen chatting and laughing.
When Ruan He handed the big bag containing the butcher's bag to Wang Xiaoer, he lowered his head to open it, took a look, and shouted in surprise: "So much meat! Then what do you eat?"
"Mrs. Mu, we have prepared our own dry food and don't need so much dried meat. You can keep some for yourselves."
Li Jiang knew very well that the entire Mu family was nothing more than poor, exiled prisoners. Even if they built a house, the rest of their lives would not be easy, so it was better to keep the meat and taste it for themselves.
Ruan He chuckled, shook his head, let go of his hand, and said: "It's okay, I'll give these to you to eat on the way. After all, you have worked hard to help during this period." After handing the dried meat to the officials, their family The people continued to go back to work. After all, the house had not been built yet. Without official help, they had to rely on themselves.
Before Li Jiang and the others could prepare a few words of thanks, Ruan He had already turned around and returned to the room. Wang Xiaoer and the other officials looked at each other, looking at such a big bag of dried meat, but they were a little embarrassed to accept it.
"Boss, what do you say? There are so many dried meats..."
Li Jiang glanced at the baggage and signaled: "Take it, I will go to Mr. Tang to take care of it and ask him to take more care of the Mu family."
"Okay!" The officials responded cheerfully one by one, and happily put away the meat.
They thought they could only eat hard dry food on their hurried trip back to Beijing, but they didn't expect to have delicious dried meat to eat. How could they not be happy!
After all, they were going to leave soon. Li Jiang seized the time and ordered General Lao Jiu to take stock of the officials and officials. He rushed to the main city to meet Mr. Tang in Yuecheng and take care of things first.
They were leaving. The exiled prisoners in Yue City were all under the management of Mr. Tang. With Li Jiang taking care of things first, the Mu family would have a much easier time in the future.
While others were busy, Wang Xiaoer rolled his eyes and sneaked into the Mu family's house quietly.
Mrs. Mu Tai was holding Mu Yuanyuan to help prepare some tea for everyone to drink. Wang Xiaoer took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and quickly ran into the room that had not yet been built and stuffed a small bag of silver into Mu Yunxiao. Inside the couple's room.
This can be regarded as a little bit of his thoughts. Anyway, they have to return to Beijing to resume their duties, and all expenses will be paid by the above. There is not much use in keeping the money in hand. It is better to give it to Mu Yunxiao and his wife as a final help. .
Brother Mu saved him several times, and his sister-in-law also cooked a lot of delicious food for him and helped him heal his injuries. Both of them made great contributions to the exile team. Wang Xiaoer always remembered it. I understand, and I keep it in my heart.
Wang Xiaoer just walked out of their empty room and bumped into Lao Jiu who had come with him. Both of them froze. When they realized what they were doing, they looked at each other and smiled without saying anything else.
The two of them coincidentally did the same thing, leaving some money for the Mu family before leaving. Especially Lao Jiu, whose life was saved by Mu Yunxiao and Ruan He, so he was naturally grateful.
When Wang Xiaoer and Lao Jiu returned to the official team one after another, almost all the official team members had assembled, and Li Jiang, who was leaving to rush to the main city, had not had time to come back.
They could only wait for a while. It was estimated that Li Jiang rushed back from the main city area after about half an hour. After counting the approximate number of people, he prepared his horses and set off on the road together, rushing back to the capital to recover.
"Let's go! There is an ironclad order from above that we must reach the capital in half a month."
The capital and Yuecheng were extremely far apart. Even if they rushed there, it would still take them half a month. Therefore, time was running out and they could not delay any longer.
