Chapter 298: This guy has a criminal record, a classic backstabber!
Huang Biao couldn't help but widen his eyes.
This... this woman is too decisive!
However, Zhang Yang was the one who did most of the work, so he didn't dare to take all the money.
"Master Zhang did all the work just now, I don't dare to take this final payment. I won't return the deposit, but as for the remaining balance, you can give it to Master Zhang!"
Aunt Wang turned to look at Zhang Yang: "WeChat, or Alipay?"
Zhang Yang quickly waved his hand to refuse: "Auntie, let's forget it. I’m just contributing to Tie Zhu’s wedding!"
"How can that be? This is one thing, and that is another. You agreeing to be the best man and bridesmaid is already a huge favor!"
After saying this, Aunt Wang took a red envelope out of her pocket and shoved it into Zhang Yang’s hand.
The village head and Huang Biao looked at each other, smiling bitterly.
Damn it!!
What happened to WeChat or Alipay?!
How did it suddenly turn into a cash red envelope? The main point is this surprise, right?
Zhang Yang squeezed the red envelope.
Good guy! The thickness feels like it has about a thousand!
Zhang Yang immediately shoved the red envelope back to Aunt Wang.
"Auntie, don't. You keep this money for yourself. This was just a small effort on my part!"
"How can that be? Slaughtering a pig is physical labor, this money must be accepted!"
"It was only ten minutes of work, it doesn't count as physical labor."
For a while, the two went back and forth, neither could convince the other!
The red envelope was tossed back and forth between their hands.
The village head and Huang Biao both had strange looks in their eyes. Are you two celebrating the New Year now?
"Auntie, Zhang Yang, what are you two doing?"
Bai Lu’s voice, like an oriole, interrupted the two who were still pulling at each other.
Seeing Bai Lu walk over, Aunt Wang’s face lit up with joy!
She walked up to Bai Lu and shoved the red envelope directly into her hand, smiling.
"Xiao Lu, you take this red envelope for him!"
Bai Lu subconsciously took the red envelope, a bit confused: "Why not give it to him directly?!"
Aunt Wang smiled: "The money at home should be kept by the woman, isn't that how it should be?!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Lu’s pretty face instantly flushed pink, and she looked at Zhang Yang, feeling a bit at a loss.
Zhang Yang also didn't expect Aunt Wang to have such a roundabout way of doing things.
He had no choice but to signal Bai Lu to accept it first; this money could be returned as a gift tomorrow.
At this time, an aunt in the distance called out to Aunt Wang.
"Aunt Wang, how many people are we cooking the pig-slaughtering meal for at noon?!"
"Wait a moment, I'll count the number of people for you!"
Aunt Wang responded to the aunt and began counting the number of people.
Bai Lu looked at Zhang Yang with a question: "Hmm?! Zhang Yang, what is a pig-slaughtering meal?"
Zhang Yang shook his head: "I’m not very clear either. I only know that for Northerners, slaughtering a pig for the New Year is called a pig-slaughtering meal, also called a pig-slaughtering year. I don't know what the saying is here!"
The village head on the side smiled: "The meaning is about the same. It’s just that after slaughtering the pig, everyone gathers to have a meal. After the meal, they start preparing for tomorrow’s wedding!"
"But speaking of which, which master are you asking to cook at noon? These pig offals are hard to handle. If you want to make them delicious, it’s a bit difficult."
At this time, even Huang Biao couldn't help but interject.
Aunt Wang had just finished counting the number of people.
Hearing Huang Biao’s words, she also felt a bit troubled.
"I originally found a chef, but the chef had to rush to another event today and can only arrive tomorrow morning at the earliest."
"Today, we'll just make a few simple home-cooked dishes. As for these pig offals, we'll have to discard them. The fishy smell is too strong, and I don't know how to cook them!"
Huang Biao was slightly disappointed; he loved eating pig offals the most!
Every time after slaughtering a pig, he would stay for the meal, basically to eat fresh pig offals.
Thinking that he wouldn't be able to eat later, Huang Biao felt uncomfortable all over!
Bai Lu was a bit puzzled: "Then wouldn't it be a waste to just pour them away?"
Aunt Wang shook her head: "There’s no other way. No one in the village knows how to make them, and pig offals can't be kept for too long, they will spoil quickly!"
Bai Lu: "Haha! That’s simple, just find a chef who can cook, right?"
The village head couldn't help but speak up: "Little girl, you don't know, it’s not easy to find a chef from outside, they all need to be booked in advance!"
Bai Lu smiled beautifully: "We don't need to find a chef from outside, can't we find one in the village?"
"Ah? Who?!"
The village head and Aunt Wang were suddenly stunned. Is there a chef in our village we don't know about?
At this time, Zhang Yang’s heart suddenly trembled!
Could it be that Bai Lu wants to set me up!
Bai Lu was still full of smiles, and then laughed...
"This candidate is far away in the sky, yet right before our eyes."
Instantly,
the three looked at Bai Lu with expressions of disbelief?!
"Could it be..."
"Hahaha. It’s hilarious!!"
At this moment, Zhang Yang couldn't help but laugh out loud!
Bai Lu didn't expect everyone to misunderstand!
They actually thought of her as the chef, and her face turned red with embarrassment.
She quickly explained to the three.
"No, it's Zhang Yang!"
"Ah?! Zhang Yang!!"
The three looked at Zhang Yang, completely shocked by him!
It was already enough that his pig-slaughtering skills were amazing, but now he says he can cook for a big banquet.
This was simply earth-shattering!
After a moment, the three recovered!
Aunt Wang asked first: "Cough cough cough! Is what Bai Lu said true?!"
Zhang Yang had no choice but to answer with a smile:
"Haha! Bai Lu is exaggerating a bit, I only know a little bit!"
"Hiss!!!"
All three gasped. This Zhang Yang really can cook for a big banquet!
As for the "little bit" Zhang Yang mentioned, the three ignored it directly!
This guy had a criminal record just now!
Just like when Zhang Yang said it was his first time slaughtering a pig, but he was fast, accurate, and ruthless! He broke down a pig in ten minutes!
A classic backstabber!
This "little bit" is much more impressive than the first time, it must be awesome!
