Chapter 663: Chapter 668 Tit for Tat_1
Hu’s Clan barely managed to suppress her smile, "I am also going to town to buy New Year’s goods, I’ll take them with me."
As for Duo’er and Tan Zheng Hong, they had just gotten married not long ago and needed more time to build their relationship.
Qiao Duo’er chatted with Hu’s Clan and her daughters for a while longer before taking her leave.
When she got home, she started preparing dinner.
Looking at those few ingredients, Qiao Duo’er couldn’t help but sigh, when would spring finally arrive?
By then, the hills would be covered with wild vegetables, and just the thought of it made her feel blissful.
Qiao Duo’er suddenly remembered the Laba tofu she made a few days ago, it had been several days now and should be ready to eat.
She took down the basket to check, and the tofu had already dried out. Today would be good to stew meat with it, but unexpectedly, as soon as she took out a bowl of tofu, Tan Zheng Hong came back.
"Wife, look what I’ve got!"
Tan Zheng Hong proudly presented his hunt to Qiao Duo’er. no𝚟𝚙u𝚋.c𝚘m
He had set a trap in the bamboo forest today and caught a plump rabbit.
Qiao Duo’er’s eyes lit up, "I’ve just remembered what we’re having tonight!"
Rabbit meat, pork, mushrooms, Laba tofu—all these combined would be perfect for barbeque, right?
"What are we eating?" Tan Zheng Hong asked expectantly.
Qiao Duo’er didn’t answer his question but said sternly, "The game Erhu brought last time is still being raised at home, you’re not allowed to go up the mountains anymore."
He had not fully recovered yet, and it would be very serious if he got a chill.
"I’m a hunter, I can’t help feeling itchy when I see the bamboo forest, so I just set a trap without thinking I would really catch something,"
Tan Zheng Hong rubbed his nose; he was telling the truth.
Qiao Duo’er hooked Tan Zheng Hong’s chin, "If you get itchy hands again, next time I’ll make you a pig’s trotter soup."
Tan Zheng Hong couldn’t help but blush because his wife was acting like a thug.
"I promise I won’t get itchy hands again."
Qiao Duo’er nodded in satisfaction, "I’ll trust you this one time. Hurry up and take care of the rabbit, and carve some bamboo skewers too. I’ll prepare the seasoning."
The most important thing about barbeque is the seasoning; if the seasoning tastes good, the barbeque will be delicious no matter what.
"Wife, you can’t eat heavily flavored food right now," Tan Zheng Hong reminded her.
Qiao Duo’er pouted, "Just this once, it’ll be fine."
Otherwise, eating those tasteless things every day, she was about to go crazy.
Tan Zheng Hong obediently did as told, and Qiao Duo’er took out some peanuts, fried them until cooked, crushed them, and then mixed in pepper salt powder.
The sauce was the soybean paste sent by Grandma Zhao, who had excellent cooking skills, and it would definitely taste delicious when brushed on the meat.
After the seasoning was ready, the meat was marinated with it.
Once the meat was well-marinated, Qiao Duo’er and Tan Zheng Hong started skewering the meat together.
As the two of them worked, Tan Zheng Hong also brought up the recent events in the village.
"Do you still remember Widow Xu?"
Qiao Duo’er nodded, Widow Xu was the woman Tan Zhengyuan had been involved with.
However, she had gotten pregnant with someone else’s child, and before leaving, she had also taken all of Tan Zhengyuan’s possessions.
About this, she only wanted to say that it served him right!
Scum like Tan Zhengyuan deserved to be taken advantage of by a woman like Widow Xu.
Tan Zheng Hong continued, "Widow Xu has come back to the village, and it seems she was swindled out of all her money too. My mother went to find her, but didn’t get anything."
Things in this world really do come around.
Widow Xu had swindled Tan Zhengyuan, and now someone had swindled her in turn.
Qiao Duo’er slowly said, "What goes around, comes around, it seems."
"That’s exactly right," Tan Zheng Hong agreed with Duo’er, the heavens wouldn’t grant all the good fortune to one person.
