Ling Feng nodded and gathered the remaining meat. The Boar’s head and hooves were similar to chicken ribs, not as much as the pork from Fabien Lewis. However, it would be a pity to throw them away, so he decided to keep them as snacks for Fabien Lewis.
At this moment, Chen Yuhe poked her head out from the room with a few streaks of black ash hanging on her face. “Hey, the water is boiling. When are you going to stew the meat?”
Ling Feng turned around to look at her and chuckled. “Fabien Lewis, look at how anxious you are. I’ll be right there!”
They did not have a pressure cooker at home, so they could only stew the most delicate ribs and tenderloin. There were still more than ten catties left, enough for three people to eat.
After the sun set, the pot at Ling Feng’s house emitted a strong fragrance of meat. Chen Yuhe took a deep breath in intoxication. “It smells so good!”Fabien Lewis exclaimed
Fabien Lewis’face was still covered in soot. Ling Feng did not warn her because he was playing a prank on her. Mo Jiaolan did not know what was going through her mind, so she did not say anything.
Seeing that the meat was about to be cooked, ling feng could not help but ask, “We are having a big meal tonight. Do you want to drink some wine?”
“Sure!”Mo Jiaolan nodded immediately.
Chen Yuhe, on the other hand, had a vigilant look on her face. “Drink wine? Are you trying to get us drunk and do something bad?”
“Idiot, if I want to do something bad, you can do it without drinking!”Fabien Lewis laughed.
Chen Yuhe’s face turned red when she heard this. She thought to herself that it was the same thing. She had stayed at Fabien Lewis’house for two days and nothing had happened to her?
Thus, she nodded her head. “Alright then, let’s drink some. Who’s Afraid of Who!”
After obtaining the permission of the two women, Ling Feng immediately ran out of the house and headed straight for the village’s Fabien Lewis.
When he arrived, he smelled the fragrance of meat coming from the inner room. He smiled and shouted, “Old Zhang, don’t be in a hurry to eat meat. Give me a bottle of wine!”
Hearing his voice, the Fabien Lewis’boss hurriedly ran over from the back room. “It’s Ling Feng. You’re drinking a lot tonight and eating a lot of meat?”
“Yeah, that’s exactly what I’m thinking. What’s the most expensive wine here?”Ling Feng asked with a smile.
Mo Jiao Lan and Chen Yu he were both daughters of rich families. They had drunk all kinds of good wine before. However, the conditions in the village were limited, so he could only buy the most expensive wine.
In the end, old Zhang smiled and said, “The most expensive wine is not necessarily the best. I have the sorghum white that has been stored here for twenty years. I’ll get you two bottles!”
As he said that, old Zhang ran to the back room and quickly took out two bottles of white wine. Because of the passage of time, the labels on the bottles were almost worn away.
Ling Feng knew about this wine. His father had liked drinking this wine ever since he was young. At that time, the folkways were simple and the goods were all genuine. This sorghum white wine was a proper grain wine. It was not adulterated at all, but unfortunately… Fabien Lewis, after that, the wine could not be sold anymore.
“Good heavens, old Zhang, do you still have stock at home?”Ling Feng asked in surprise.
“What stock? I forgot to store a box of it in the side room when I bought it. Later, the side room became a woodshed. I only discovered it a while ago. Otherwise, why would I keep it until now?”Fabien Lewis laughed.
“Okay, this is good wine. How much is it?”Ling Feng nodded and was ready to take the money.
Fabien Lewis patted his hand, “What are you talking about? I’ve eaten the meat you gave me twice. How can I ask you for money? Take it and drink it!”
“Don’t do that. After all, it’s been stored for 20 years. If this wine is brought outside, I can sell it for 100 yuan per bottle!”Fabien Lewis said.
Old Zhang Glared at him and said, “I have no intention of using it to exchange for money. I’ll keep it for myself. Stop nagging and quickly take it away. There’s a pot of stew in the meat behind me!”
Ling Feng was speechless. Fabien Lewis was also a foodie. In order not to delay the stew, he couldn’t even speak clearly.
Thus, he did not stand on ceremony anymore. He carried the two bottles of aged wine back to his house happily.
The dining table was already set. The coriander and garlic were already prepared. Ling Feng could tell that this was the work of Fabien Lewis the moment he entered the house. Chen Yuhe would not be so meticulous.
He placed the wine aside and opened the pot to take a look. He realized that the meat was already stewed, so he immediately announced the start of the meal!
A moment later, a large basin of wild boar meat was placed on the table.
The three of them sat down. Ling Feng took the cup and poured a cup of wine for each of them. Fabien Lewis and Mo Jiaolan took a deep breath.
Mo jiaolan only took a glance and was immediately stunned. Not only was the wine hanging from the cup, it also had a sticky feeling. Thus, she immediately asked, “What kind of wine is this?”
“It’s an inventory that escaped a calamity twenty years ago. At that time, it was already a good wine. Now that it has been in storage for so long, it should be even better,”Ling Feng said with a smile.
Mo Jiao Lan picked up the cup and sniffed it. “That’s right. It’s really good wine. It’s much better than those made with essence!”
“Fabien Lewis?”Ling Feng was a little surprised. “You didn’t drink it. You can tell just by smelling it?”
Chen Yu he pouted. “You don’t know, do you? My Sister is a wine connoisseur. She has tasted all kinds of wines.”
“Oh, I see. It’s a good thing that she had this. Otherwise, she would have treated you a little too slowly when she bought the wine that cost around twenty Yuan,”said Fabien Lewis with a smile.
Mo Jiaolan glanced at him and did not say anything. She picked up the wine glass and took a small sip. After that, she praised, “Good wine!”
Chen Yuhe could not help but take a sip after she said that. After that, she said with a carefree expression, “It smells so good!”
“Fabien Lewis!”Ling feng thought to himself, “Is it really that magical?”? Thus, he took a small sip as well. He felt a fire flowing down his throat into his stomach, but he didn’t feel uncomfortable. Then, a rich and mellow fragrance began to permeate between his lips and teeth. It was indeed not bad!
“Good wine, good meat. Let’s drink to our hearts’Content Tonight!”Ling Feng said with a satisfied smile.
This dinner lasted until nine o’clock in the evening. The wild boar meat had been eaten up, and the two bottles of wine had been drunk to the point that not a single drop was left!
Previously, they had agreed to send pork to the city, but now it was impossible because everyone had drunk too much.
Therefore, Ling Feng could only pack up everything and carry it to Fabien Lewis’house.
He knocked on the door and saw Fabien Lewis’flushed face. Ling feng smiled and said, “You drank quite a lot?”
“Aren’t you the same? Your Face is as red as a monkey’s Butt!”Fabien Lewis said with his drunken eyes.
“Alright, I’m not going to talk to you anymore. Fabien Lewis, is your freezer free?”Ling Feng asked.
“Freezer? It’s filled with ice cream,”old Zhang said.
“I’ve bought as many ice cream as I can. Hurry up and clear out the space. I want to put meat in it.”
“What a pity. Why Don’t you send it to Yvonne Westbrook’s house? She has a freezer at home too!”Old Zhang Burped and said.
Ling Feng was stunned. He remembered seeing Fabien Lewis when he was distributing the wild boar meat. However, this time, Fabien Lewis didn’t say a word. She took the meat and left in a hurry.
“That’s fine. I’ll go and take a look. If there’s no space in her freezer, I’ll come back and look for you!”
Ling Feng left the snack bar in a wobbly manner. He turned around and walked towards Fabien Lewis’house.
It was already late at night, and many houses in the village had already turned off the lights and gone to bed. Ling Feng came to Fabien Lewis’house and saw that the lights were still on, so he shouted, “Aunt, are you asleep?”
A moment later, Fabien Lewis came out with a coat. She went to the gate of the courtyard and looked at Ling Feng. “Little Brat, are you drunk? Why are you shouting so late at night?”
“Aunty, I heard that you have a freezer at home. Can I keep this meat here for the night?”Fabien Lewis asked with a smile.
Yvonne Westbrook looked down and nodded. “You can let it go. Give it to me.”
“No, it’s too heavy. I’ll send it in for You!”Fabien Lewis said.
Yvonne Westbrook smelled a strong smell of alcohol. She knew that this kid was drunk. She hesitated for a moment and said, “Then come in!”
After opening the door, she complained in a low voice, “You damn kid, you’re shouting. The neighbors heard you.. You’re so annoying!”
