“Oh my, I almost worked myself to death today.”
“You're tired? I didn't see you do anything to help.”
After the family rushed home with the meat in hand.
Xiuxiu rested for a while and then went to the outer room to prepare dinner.
The little girl, who usually liked to help.
Now she just collapsed on the kang in the inner room.
She was hoping her brother-in-law would praise her for her hard work today.
But instead, she got this.
The little girl was really angry.
She grumbled angrily.
“Humph, if it wasn't for me helping out, you two wouldn't have been able to pull those four pigs down!”
“Hehe.”
Li Yu smiled and pinched the little girl's puffed cheeks.
He said.
“You, you think too highly of yourself.”
“Ah! Brother-in-law, how can you be so annoying now!”
He was being so infuriating.
She decided, for a week, no, for a day, she wouldn't talk to her brother-in-law.
Seeing that the little girl turned her back and refused to speak.
Li Yu reached out and poked her.
“Are you really angry?”
But all he got was a light humph.
She clearly showed her attitude.
“Little brat.”
Li Yu sat up and said to himself.
“Originally, I was thinking about celebrating today, I'd make some good food, but now it seems, some people won't have the good fortune to taste it.”
“Hmm?”
Good food?
As a little glutton, her ears perked up at the word.
After hesitating for a moment.
The little girl turned back and asked.
“What good food?”
In this world, food was the most important thing, so she decided to forget her anger towards her brother-in-law for now.
The little girl's expression made Li Yu laugh so hard.
“Hey, brother-in-law, don't laugh, tell me quickly.”
For every foodie, eating was a very important thing.
No room for any carelessness.
“We're having BBQ today.”
“?”
The little girl had question marks all over her forehead.
What was BBQ?
She had never heard of it before!
“It's grilled meat.”
Seeing the little girl scratching her head in frustration.
Li Yu decided not to keep it a secret anymore.
“Go ask your sister Xiuxiu to make some pancakes, then go to the firewood shed and cut some bamboo tubes, sharpen them into skewers.”
“Oh!”
The little girl's eyes lit up immediately.
She didn't know what BBQ was, but grilled meat was definitely delicious.
In these times, most people couldn't afford to eat meat, let alone grill it.
“This is good, this is good, I'll go sharpen the skewers now.”
After saying that.
She rolled over and got off the kang and ran out of the inner room.
This is the way of a foodie, talking about food made her happier than anything else.
It's a pity she was born in the wrong era, if she was born in a later time, she would probably have become a little fat pig.
Li Yu was also craving this grilled meat.
He exchanged some barbecue seasoning from the system store.
He went outside to cut a piece of the remaining five flower pork from today.
He then went to the backyard and cut some bear meat from the soy sauce jar.
He cut them all into small pieces.
Xiuxiu wasn't far away in the outer room, so she naturally heard the conversation between the two in the room.
She curiously glanced at her husband.
Then she continued to knead the dough in her hands.
The little girl worked quite diligently for food.
In a short while, she brought a large handful of bamboo skewers.
“Brother-in-law, do you think this size is suitable?”
“It's fine, go to the front yard and get some stones, make a fire, I'll thread the meat and start grilling?”
The room was too small, if they did it inside, it would be smoky.
It was better to grill it outside, although it was a bit cold, but it was bearable.
“Okie dokie, brother-in-law!”
The little girl made a mischievous sound, then pulled out a burning piece of firewood from the stove.
She held it and ran to the front yard.
Xiuxiu quickly reminded her.
“Be careful.”
“I know, sister.”
Xiuxiu was almost done, so she went forward to help Li Yu thread the meat onto the skewers.
She thought they could just thread it randomly, but Li Yu reminded her to thread a piece of lean meat and a piece of fat, which made it a bit more troublesome.
Men and women working together, don't get tired.
The couple worked for a while before they managed to thread a large handful of skewers.
Li Yu even counted them carefully, there were about a hundred skewers, which was enough for the three of them to eat a meal.
“Come on, come on, I'll let you eat something good today, I guarantee you'll swallow your tongue.”
“Go away, you think I'm Xiaomin, so easy to fool?”
“You'll know when you try it, I wouldn't lie to you.”
Hearing the little girl's urging from outside for the nth time, Li Yu grabbed the skewers in one hand and pulled Xiuxiu with the other and walked out.
Grilled meat, it's actually quite particular about the heat.
You have to use charcoal fire and grill it slowly, if you use a naked flame, it won't be very delicious, all the moisture will be dried out.
As Li Yu placed the skewers on the simple barbecue rack that Xiaomin made.
Gradually, the fat on the skewers started to sizzle.
Small oil bubbles appeared on the surface, as Li Yu kept turning the skewers.
The oil that was about to drip down, could only run to the lean meat on the sides.
Every piece of meat on the skewers was wrapped in oil, slowly roasted.
As the oil dripped onto the charcoal.
A strong aroma of meat instantly wafted over.
The little glutton on the side didn't even blink, she stared at the skewers in Li Yu's hand, her mouth was watering.
Even Xiuxiu, who was still skeptical, couldn't help but feel her stomach rumble.
After all, since they had breakfast.
The three of them had been running around the mountain chasing the dog.
They hurriedly opened the four pigs' bellies, then rushed to drag them to the village.
They also wasted a lot of time at the team headquarters, and it was already long past lunchtime.
Their stomachs had been empty for a long time.
Now, smelling the aroma of grilled meat, how could they bear it anymore.
After grilling for a while, Li Yu noticed that the heat was just right.
He grabbed a handful of the system-made secret barbecue seasoning.
He sprinkled it evenly over the skewers.
A stronger aroma than before instantly flooded the nostrils of the three of them.
It almost made the little girl, who couldn't wait any longer, cry with hunger.
After the seasoning flavor seeped into the meat.
Li Yu took two skewers and handed them to his wife and younger sister.
“Try it!”
The little girl eagerly grabbed the skewers.
She took a bite.
“Woo woo woo, it's so hot, it's so hot, but it's so fragrant.”
Seeing her little sister eating like a starving ghost.
Xiuxiu smiled helplessly, she blew on the heat, and took a small bite of the meat.
The taste was a combination of the aroma of meat and various spices, with a touch of spiciness, making people want to eat more and more.
Li Yu also took a bite, although it wasn't as good as the professional chefs in his previous life, it was already quite good.
So, the three of them took skewers and ate with pancakes, squatting by the charcoal fire.
