Chapter 142: Pork Ribs

~5 min read 802 words

Sihe Academy

At dusk, accompanied by fiery red clouds,

the half-side of pork ribs carried on the back seat of Cao Weiguo's bicycle brought quite a shock to the Sihe Academy.

Although pork ribs were not as precious as meat, they were still meat!

And these pork ribs, when cooked well, were even more fragrant and delicious than meat.

Looking at the pork ribs, people couldn't stop swallowing their saliva.

Especially the Third Uncle, who ran over with green eyes.

"Weiguo, where did the pork ribs come from? This is a rare item."

Cao Weiguo smiled: "I went out to do a wedding banquet for someone today, and when I was leaving, they insisted on giving me some leftover pork ribs."

The Third Uncle said enviously: "That family is truly generous!"

The Third Aunt praised: "That's because Weiguo is capable, it must be that the wedding banquet he made made people eat beautifully."

Yu Li, who was washing vegetables, stared at the pork ribs from afar and swallowed her saliva.

She couldn't remember how long it had been since she had eaten pork ribs.

Two years or three years?

Yan Jiecheng swallowed his saliva: "Is being a chef this popular?"

Yu Li felt indignant in her heart: "Look at Cao Weiguo, then look at you, when will I be able to eat meat every day like Song Yulan."

Yan Jiecheng said with a smirk: "Your expectations are too high, you don't look at it, look at the street, how many can compare to Cao Weiguo."

The residents were all envious of Cao Weiguo, and the praise didn't stop.

The Eldest Uncle, who was out for a stroll, felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

The day Banggeng stole the chicken, he had lost all his face.

He had always been highly virtuous and respected in the Sihe Academy; when had he ever been scolded like that.

Until now, the people in the courtyard still held "prejudice" against him!

Shazhu looked at the glorious Cao Weiguo, feeling both jealous and unconvinced in his heart.

This Cao Weiguo's culinary skills were far inferior to his, so how did he mix so well?

Those people were all blind!

Not coming to invite him, the master chef, but instead going to invite Cao Weiguo, that second-rate guy.

Thinking back to when he was in charge of the ladle at the rolling mill, Cao Weiguo wasn't even an apprentice.

How did Cao Weiguo, this villain, become a hot commodity in just a few years?

Jia Zhangshi looked at the half-side of pork ribs, her pair of triangular eyes glowing green.

She was a typical lazy and greedy person.

Seeing the pork ribs full of meat, she wished she could pounce on them and take a few bites.

"God truly doesn't open his eyes!"

"Such delicious things are just for a beast!"

"Eat, eat! Sooner or later you'll choke to death, you beast!"

Jia Zhangshi didn't dare to go up and ask, cursing in a low voice fiercely.

Qin Huairu carried a basket of green vegetables, staring at the half-side of pork ribs with jealous eyes.

Why couldn't this Cao Weiguo help her like Shazhu did?

Otherwise, these pork ribs would be her family's.

"Qin Jie, why did you buy so few green vegetables."

Just as Qin Huairu was in a daze, Shazhu came over with a smile.

Qin Huairu said pitifully: "These few green vegetables were bought with borrowed money, Jie's life is difficult."

Shazhu said guiltily: "Sigh, it's me who is incompetent, being driven out of the kitchen by others, otherwise I could have brought back some leftovers to help you."

Qin Huairu's beautiful eyes flashed: "Zhuzi, your culinary skills are so good, why don't you go help people cook like Cao Weiguo."

Shazhu said in a dilemma: "I've thought about it, but no one is looking for me."

Qin Huairu thought for a moment and said in a low voice: "Go find Cao Weiguo, he knows many people, let him help you bridge the gap."

Shazhu said indignantly: "Even if I starve to death, I won't go find him for help."

This time he was suspended for reflection; if Cao Weiguo hadn't been meddling in the dark, he wouldn't believe it even if he were beaten to death.

Being driven home by someone, and then going to beg them.

He, Shazhu, was also a person who wanted face!

Qin Huairu wiped her tears with a face full of heartache: "Qin Jie, I know you have backbone, but you also have to consider your livelihood. Without wages, what will you eat, what will you drink? What if you starve your body?"

"Qin Jie! I!"

Looking at Qin Huairu's appearance of heartache and wiping tears for him, Shazhu was so moved he couldn't speak. ===== CHAPTER 144 =====
