Back in the 1980s, hiking in the mountains was also a way of life

Chapter 1118 has a unique flavor

After speaking, without waiting for Wang An's reply, Mu Xueqing started to pick up the bricks.

However, the brick had been steaming on the pot lid for so long that it was now extremely hot to the touch, so Mu Xueqing touched the brick and then immediately pulled her hand back.

Immediately afterwards, Mu Xueqing began to look around, clearly searching for a suitable tool to deal with the brick.

It's clear that regardless of Wang Antong's disagreement, Mu Xueqing is determined to get her hands on this meat, and nothing anyone says will change her mind.

Upon seeing this, Wang An immediately became worried. The main concern was that Mu Xueqing was heavily pregnant and had great difficulty moving around. If she were to get burned or hit by a brick, it would be a huge problem.

You have to understand, this is his own wife!
Therefore, Wang An was heard shouting anxiously:

"Hey, don't move! I'll fix it for you right away, okay?"

Wang An was speechless when faced with his foodie wife. The key was that Mu Xueqing was too impatient and wouldn't wait for him to finish what she was saying. Who could handle that?

Fortunately, after such a long stewing time, the beef intestines and liver must be cooked through.

As he spoke, Wang An hurriedly put down what he was doing and ran quickly to the stove where the beef bones were stewing.

There's no way around it; she's my wife, I have to cherish her.

Running to the stove, Wang An gently pulled Mu Xueqing aside, saying with a face full of reproach:

"Why are you in such a hurry? This pot lid is incredibly heavy, and there are a bunch of bricks on top of it. What if it falls on your toes?"

Faced with Wang An's reprimand, Mu Xueqing merely glanced at him without saying a word, continuing to stare intently at the pot lid as if trying to see through it to see what the meat inside looked like.

This large pot lid with 12 seals was made by Comrade Wang Dazhu by piecing together wooden boards and then nailing them together.

Although the thinnest wooden board was used as much as possible, the lid was still quite heavy due to its large size. Moreover, the wooden lid had been steamed for so long that it was completely soaked, which further increased its weight.

So it's no exaggeration to say that even a weak, muscular man couldn't lift this pot lid.

Of course, the problem of not being able to lift it didn't exist for Wang An. He simply grabbed the handle of the pot lid and pulled hard, lifting the large pot lid along with the bricks on top of it.

After moving the pot lid aside, Wang An used a sharpened stove hook to hook out several sections of beef intestines, and then quickly hooked out two pieces of beef liver.

Just as Wang An put down the stove hook to get the pot lid, Mu Xueqing swiftly picked up the stove hook and very quickly hooked a bone out of the pot.

When Wang An saw this scene, he was truly at a loss for words, wondering how Mu Xueqing, who ate meat at every meal, could still be so greedy.

After Wang An put the pot lid back on, he saw Mu Xueqing eating with her teeth clenched and eyes wide open.

The reason she could make such a variety of expressions while eating was because the old ox's intestines and meat were very chewy, and Mu Xueqing's little mouth was tearing at them with all her might.

Finally, Mu Xueqing tore off a small piece of the beef intestine, and then, while chewing vigorously, she mumbled indistinctly:
"Delicious, so delicious, incredibly delicious."

It has to be said that although Mu Xueqing's eating manners are very unrefined, it does not affect her attractiveness at all. She is still so beautiful and exciting. With this kind of looks, she is really damn good at holding her own.

After a while, Wang Li finished cleaning both fish. Wang An placed the fish on the cutting board, and then, with swift and skillful movements, dismembered them.

Wang An decided to stew the sturgeon's body, steam the sturgeon's head and the salmon's head, and then try a different way to cook the salmon's body.

Stew the sturgeon meat in a pot, then stick a ring of large flatbreads around the side of the pot, place a pot fork on top, put the bowl for steaming the fish head on the pot fork, and finally put the lid on the pot, and that's it for another pot.

After doing all this, Wang An pondered for a long time and finally decided to eat the salmon body in a way that was very rare in this era: hot pot.

That's right, it's eaten by hot pot. The main reason is that salmon meat is very tender, and if it's stewed for too long, it won't have that fresh flavor.

In fact, the Hezhe people eat salmon raw. However, Wang An felt that it was better not to eat freshwater fish raw, mainly because it would be a real shame to get parasites from eating raw fish.

Since there was no copper hot pot, Wang An used the small iron pot he used when going into the mountains. He simply placed the small iron pot on a brazier filled with charcoal, and that was it—very simple.

To be honest, this thin little iron pot is actually quite good as a hot pot.

And so, amidst Wang An's busy preparations, dinner was all ready.

Meanwhile, Comrade Mu Xueqing was tearing apart a large cow bone with a small dagger.

As for Comrade Wang Li, he was sitting not far from Mu Xueqing, his cheeks twitching, chewing something in his mouth, and his eyes and mouth occasionally twitching. It was clear that he was putting a lot of effort into chewing.

To be honest, when a person wants to eat something, they will do whatever it takes to get it into their mouth, and that's exactly what happened to Mu Xueqing, the pregnant woman.

You know, if the beef bones aren't stewed until they're tender, you can't bite the meat off them. So Mu Xueqing somehow found a small knife and started picking the meat off the bones bit by bit, eating a little bit at a time, maintaining a very good rhythm.

The reason Wang Li had such difficulty chewing was that the beef bones in Mu Xueqing's hands were not only not stewed until tender, but also not fully cooked, with a lot of blood still clinging to the bones.

But Mu Xueqing didn't care about the blood at all; she even picked off the periosteum and stuffed it into her mouth.

While eating, Mu Xueqing said to Wang Li:

"Fifth brother, do you still want some? This meat is so delicious, the more you chew, the better it tastes."

As she spoke, Mu Xueqing handed a piece of meat, still slightly bloody, to Wang Li.

Wang Li shook his head as he spoke:

"Mmm, it really smells good. Sister-in-law, you eat it. I haven't swallowed this bite yet."

Seeing that Wang An had finished his work, Mu Xueqing turned her head and, while chewing meat, mumbled something to Wang An:
"Xiao An, do you want some? This meat smells amazing."

Wang An looked at Mu Xueqing's hopeful face, then at the blood streaks on the flesh, hesitated for a moment, and then opened his mouth.

To be honest, this beef with blood streaks actually has a rather unique flavor.

In fact, when Wang Li and Mu Xueli went into the mountains with Wang An, the meat they ate after cooking the game was not very tender, but they had never eaten meat with traces of blood.
