Chapter 1518: Roast Lamb on Small Heat

Small Heat is the fifth solar term of summer, marking the official start of summer.

In this season, the temperature rises significantly, and the hot weather makes people feel suffocated. At the same time, the rain gradually increases, and the humidity increases, bringing some inconvenience to people's lives. However, this climate also provides unique conditions for the growth of various plants, making summer a harvest season.

In this season of Small Heat, there are many interesting folk customs. The most common is eating Qiaoguo.

Qiaoguo is a small flour snack with various shapes and is very exquisite. People will carve some auspicious patterns and blessings on Qiaoguo and give them to relatives and friends as gifts, implying summer blessings and thoughts. In addition, during the Small Heat solar term, people will also drink realgar wine, eat dumplings, etc.

On this hot day, Cao Weiguo and his wife Song Yulan, as well as his sister-in-law Song Yujuan, He Yushui, and Yu Haitang were busy in the courtyard.

Early in the morning, Cao Weiguo prepared barbecue tools and ingredients, and went to the vegetable market to carefully select fat lamb and fresh vegetables.

As the sun gradually rose, the warm sunshine spilled into the small courtyard. Cao Ping'an held a windmill and ran around in the courtyard excitedly. Song Yulan and Song Yujuan were carefully preparing various delicacies in the kitchen. Yu Haitang helped set up the barbecue grill and tables and chairs, and He Yushui was busy washing fruits and vegetables by the pool.

Soon, everything was ready. Cao Weiguo turned into a barbecue master. The fragrant lamb skewers made people salivate, and after sprinkling cumin, it was even more fragrant.

In addition to roast lamb skewers, Cao Weiguo also roasted grass carp, sesame cakes, garlic, chives, and peppers. Together with the cold dishes prepared by Song Yulan and Song Yujuan, as well as fresh fruits and melons, everyone sat in the courtyard enjoying the food while also enjoying comfort and joy.

Xu Damao and Cui Dake, who were chatting in the alley, smelled the tempting aroma of roast lamb skewers, and saliva flowed uncontrollably in their mouths. The two looked at each other with a tacit understanding and decided to go to Cao Weiguo's house to eat and drink.

They seemed to be led by the nose by the fragrance, and arrived at Cao Weiguo's door with saliva.

"Brother Weiguo!"

Thick-skinned, they stepped over the door. As soon as they entered the door, Xu Damao and Cui Dake saw Cao Weiguo busy roasting lamb skewers. The lamb on the charcoal fire was roasted until it was fragrant, the meat was tender and juicy, and it emitted an irresistible aroma, making them unable to help swallowing saliva. ===== CHAPTER 1520 =====
