Chapter 1918: Chapter 1708: Barbecue Stall (Part 2)
"Our city’s night market street is really bustling right now."
Qiaoqiao blinked: "Are we taking the kids? He Tuo has been behaving much better lately."
Song Tan: ...This reminded her of Little Ten, who was still working in the sunflower fields.
"As long as they want to go, we’ll take them! But a parent has to co along, otherwise, we can’t keep an eye on them."
They definitely want to go, it’s just a question of whether the kids can stay awake that late, since they’re not used to staying up.
After a brief mont of thought, Lun Chuan decided not to think anymore.
He would leave these issues to the parents. They could drive and co with the group, and if they couldn’t hold on, they could drive back. anwhile, he’d stay with Tantan selling water chestnuts.
Wu Lan frowned: "A bite of barbecue is all seasoning, what’s so great about that? Why is it so popular now?"
Song Tan thought for a mont: "Think about skewers of pork belly sizzling on the grill, with a sprinkle of chili powder, cumin, and salt... Mom, doesn’t that sound delicious?"
Wu Lan: ...
It really does sound a little bit delicious!
Like grilled lamb kidneys or beef fat, I bet it’s sowhat similar, right?
She waved them off: "You guys go have fun. After selling, you’ll be tired, so have so barbecue as a late-night snack."
Hearing this, Song Tan suddenly got an idea: "Let
ask Master Jiang if he wants to co to the night market to grill at with us."
Everyone working and eating at the sa ti — how fun!
We’ll take the at from ho, and the aroma from the grilling could attract people from miles away. Those coming to buy water chestnuts might want to eat so, but it’s not for sale...
She said with mock seriousness: "I’m so wicked!"
Lun Chuan paused and then suddenly asked, "Shall we take the at out to defrost now? Otherwise, we won’t have enough ti."
The two of them exchanged a glance, confirming they had the sa mischievous idea.
But, they needed a barbecue grill...
She picked up her phone: "I’ll have Old Zhao find
a new set at the market, and after using it, we can load it back onto the pickup truck. We’ll have our own barbecue tonight."
Oh, why hadn’t I thought of this sooner? Sumr is the perfect ti for this.
Old Zhao, the vegetable vendor: ...
Co on, you want
to arrange this for you at night? I sell vegetables, not barbecues!
Song Tan quickly promised, "I want to sell water chestnuts tonight, and I’ll bring the family chef to grill so at. I’ll treat you to a al... Is it possible to buy them?"
But there was no response, just rustling noises over the phone.
"Old Zhao?" Song Tan asked again.
"I’m off to the market now to buy for you. Don’t worry, I’ll sort out everything — charcoal, fire starters, sanitizers, and skewers. Do you need a knife? A cutting board?"
"How about seasonings?"
"You guys prep at ho first. No rush. I’ll clean everything when I get them. For us to eat, it must be done well!"
Wow!
And with that, Song Tan even invited Zhang Yanping and Lun Jing: "Join Xin Jun as well!"
Wow!
Seventh Uncle had just finished the spicy pot noodles. Everyone hastily had a bowl, despite the heat, before they were all on the move.
Seventh Uncle: ... These youngsters, why didn’t they say they wouldn’t eat? He prepared enough noodles for two or three bowls each.
Qiaoqiao quickly suggested: "No need to cook tomorrow morning, just heat up these noodles and have them again."
Though it might seem inelegant, a big pot of reheated noodles, with the soup and starch blending, would be delicious!
Seventh Uncle laughed and scolded: "You really know how to eat—alright then, that’s settled."
"Qiaoqiao, be careful not to burn yourself while grilling tonight..."
But he, being older, didn’t have the hearty stomach of the youngsters, so he wouldn’t join this excitent.
Qiaoqiao nodded vigorously: He had never tried night market barbecue before! He was so excited now.
anwhile, at the guesthouse, the appointed chef for tonight wasn’t Master Chai but the younger Master Xiao Zhou.
He was more than happy to do this job: "Can I eat while I grill?"
"Of course, you can!"
Everyone chid in: "What chef doesn’t taste their own work? Eat all you want!"
Alright then!
Master Xiao Zhou gathered his energy, rubbed his stomach, which he had held at bay with just one small bowl earlier, and decided he’d eat till he was full of delicious oils tonight!
Oh, barbecue! Barbecue!!!
Master Chai was still on the phone behind him: "Xiao Zhou, rember to blend the seasoning I gave you first! Follow the chili asurent, you can add but not reduce, rember!"
...
The family’s cars took off, even Song Sancheng joined the trend, and they headed off excitedly towards the urban area.
Aunt Zhang Hong, who was preparing for tofu making, ca out from the courtyard and was startled by the line of cars speeding past. She wondered what on earth was happening!
