Chapter 189: Curses
Lin Yuelan’s story was half-true and half-false. She had to adapt some of the details to the time.
Guo Bing frowned and asked, “Is there really such a legend? Why have I never heard of it before?” If such a legendary dish existed, then it would have been known by the world already!
However, this was the first time they had heard of this beggar’s chicken. Whether it was delicious or not, he didn’t know for now. However, the fragrance did suggest that it would be very delicious.
Lin Yuelan winked and said, “Of course, you haven’t heard of it before. The legend came to me in my dream, and so did the recipe!”
Erm…
!!
No one knew how to respond.
‘This young woman…’
As the fragrance became stronger, Lin Yuelan believed that the pheasant was almost ready. She immediately had Little Three and Little Twelve put off the fire.
When they dug out the pheasants wrapped in yellow mud and lotus leaves, all of them were drooling. It was simply too fragrant.
Lin Yuelan cracked open the muddy sh.e.l.l. In an instant, the fragrance in the courtyard became even stronger.
“It smells so good!” All of them stared at the pheasant like greedy little ghosts, drooling.
Lin Yuelan looked at these people, then waved her hand and said, “let’s eat!”
These pheasants were a few kilograms in weight each. There was enough for them. However, there was still fighting and s.n.a.t.c.hing during dinner.
While the men fought, Lin Yuelan set away two pheasants and planned to send them to the village chief. Jiang Zhennan carried a drumstick to eat on the road and offered to go with her.
When they arrived at the village chief’s house, Lin Yuelan shouted at the courtyard gate, “Grandpa Village Chief, are you in? Lan ‘Er is looking for you!”
Then, the courtyard gate opened. The person who opened the gate was Lin Yiwei.
Lin Yiwei looked at Lin Yuelan in surprise and asked, “Lan ‘Er, what’s the matter?”
Lin Yuelan smiled, “Grandpa Village Chief, here.” Then, she handed the two lumps of mud to Lin Yiwei.
Lin Yiwei was a little stunned. Why was Lin Yuelan giving him two lumps of mud?
She looked at Lin Yiwei’s dumbfounded expression and smiled. “Grandpa Village Chief, this is not an ordinary mud ball. You’ll definitely be surprised if you open it. ”
Lin Yiwei stared at Lin Yuelan in disbelief. He asked, “really?”
What kind of surprise would there be in the mudb.a.l.l.s? Plus, why were they hot? Could there be something hidden inside? Why was there a chicken fragrance coming from inside the mudb.a.l.l.s?
Lin Yiwei swallowed his saliva and asked Lin yuelan suspiciously, “Lan ‘Er, I can smell the chicken fragrance coming from inside. Is there a chicken inside?”
Lin Yuelan nodded. “Grandpa Village Chief, you’re right!”
Lin Yiwei took another sniff. The smell was really mouth-watering. But he still returned them to Lin Yuelan, “Lan ‘Er, I can’t accept your gift.” He knew how many people were staying with Lin Yuelan. He didn’t want to deprive them of their food.
Lin Yuelan waved her hand and said, “Don’t worry, Grandpa Village Chief. We have enough to eat. Please keep these two pheasants. It’s for Ranran and Mingqing to nourish their bodies.”
Lin Yiwei was in tears. He said, “Okay, Lan ‘Er. But, did you need something from me since you came yesterday?” Lin Yiwei suddenly remembered.
Lin Yuelan didn’t hesitate and said, “yes, Grandpa village chief. It’s like this …”
