Chapter 104 - Wild Duck Stewed with Pickled Radish

Chapter 104: Wild Duck Stewed with Pickled Radish

At most, they could only eat stewed cabbage with just two pieces of pork in it. That was already the best.

As for grains, steamed buns made from pure black flour could withstand hunger the most.

After all, everyone in the village was poor, and among them, the Guan family had always been the poorest in the village. They didn’t even have two copper coins at home. There were too many men and their expenditure was too high.

Now, there were even triplets.

Just like the Liu family, who was also filled with men, they were famous in the village for drinking rice soup often. The family was often so hungry they wouldn’t mind digging up grassroots to eat.

The Guan family was not much different.

“Heh, the Guan family is trying to puff themselves up at their own cost, right? Why must they hold a celebration for the triplets? I’ll see what their family can offer.”

“There’s nothing at home, not even a grain of rice. If they insist on putting on airs, they’ll just be embarrassing themselves later.”

Some villagers were vicious with their mouths. They came over to attend the banquet in a hurry but still had to say extremely nasty words when they sat down.

However, as soon as these words fell, the other villagers who were waiting for their meal opened their mouths wide and were dumbfounded when they saw the food on the table.

A spicy and rich fragrance wafted through the air.

“Wild duck stewed with pickled radish!”

Mother Rong did not have the time to care about what the villagers said. She carried the dishes out and shouted loudly because she wanted to remind them:

“These are pickled radish we made at home. Some of the tables have the non-spicy versions and some have the spicy version. If children can’t eat spicy food, go to a non-spicy table.”

A layer of oil floated on the large pot of thick sauce that was filled with color. The duck meat was fat and thick. It could be seen that each table was filled with a whole wild duck stewed with pickled radish.

There were plenty of pickled radish and wild ducks in the pot. Some of the radish pieces were still red. One could not help but salivate when looking at them. They felt that it was sour, spicy, and delicious in their mouths.

Furthermore, there was not a single piece of vegetable at the bottom of the pot.

It was a pot of wild ducks stewed with pickled radish.

All the villagers gasped in disbelief.

“Braised hare meat!” Mother Rong was very busy. She did not care about anything else and shouted at the top of her voice, “There are also tables with the spicy and non-spicy versions. Children should take note as they eat. If their throats become hoarse due to the spiciness, my family will not be responsible.”

Everyone’s chests heaved violently. They froze by the table and stared in disbelief.

Another pot of bright red braised hare meat was placed on the table. In order not to taint the flavor, there were no vegetables.

“Braised pork with potatoes!”

The third dish was finally stewed with potatoes. Mother Rong was used to reporting the name of the dish, so she simply did the same.

“Stir-fried vegetables!”

“Shredded white radish stir-fried with dried chili~”

“Sweet and sour shredded potato.”

…

Food was served one after another. Although there weren’t many dishes and the portion was average, the villagers were already stunned.

That was because these main dishes were more than enough.

“Steamed sweet potatoes and black flour steamed buns,” Mother Rong said in the end.

The staple food paled in comparison. Indeed, they were black flour steamed buns.

However, this was the normal food served in banquets in the village. With such poor staple food coupled with other dishes prepared by the Guan family today, it was not shabby at all.

How was this bad?!

Hiss…

The Guan family was so generous! At the banquet prepared for the triplets, there were three big pots of delicious dishes on each table. There was a whole duck! A whole hare! And braised pork!
