219 Proving
When Qu Daren heard Luo Cheng’s words, he immediately looked at his chest.
Sure enough, a large piece of meat was hanging there. He didn’t notice it at all.
No wonder he could smell meat everywhere he went previously. So that was the reason!
“The minced meat I made at home got smeared on my shirt!” Qu Daren still argued.
“Is that so? What do you put in your minced meat? Is it just pork? The minced meat in our shop is a little different from other people’s minced meat!” Luo Cheng thought of something and asked again.
Qu Daren was confused when he heard this.
“There’s only meat in my family’s minced meat. What else can I add?”
“Since you insist that the oil stains on your body are from food made by your family, why don’t you show them to everyone now?!” Luo Cheng looked at Qu Daren coldly and continued to retort.
“I ate all the minced meat at home, so there’s naturally none left. I even washed the dishes!” Qu Daren said shamelessly.
Li Xiaoran had been silent. When she heard that the other party was still playing dirty, she was furious.
The angrier Li Xiaoran was, the more rational she became.
Li Xiaoran thought about it for a moment and said, “I wonder which villagers around here have pork? We’ll buy it at a high price!”
“My family has it. You don’t have to pay a high price. Just give me a piece of meat in the future!” Granny Huang said as she walked out.
Seeing that it was Granny Huang, Li Xiaoran smiled.
“Alright, I’ll bring you to the meat stall to buy it at that time!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGranny Huang nodded and called Li Xiaoran to her house to get a piece of meat.
“Now that I have a piece of meat in my hand, I’ll make mince meat the way your family does!” Li Xiaoran stared at Qu Daren and said.
“I’ll do it just because you want me to? How embarrassing would that be?” Qu Daren said shamelessly.
When the bailiff heard this, he pulled out his saber and placed it against Qu Daren’s neck.
“If she tells you to do it, do it. Now, we’re clearing your name. If you don’t do it, I’ll take you back to the station and arrest you for robbery!”
As soon as the bailiff said this, Qu Daren immediately cowered.
He shot his wife a look, signaling her to stand up and do it.
Cao Zhi was also anxious, and her mind was racing.
How did she know how to make minced meat?
Even if she knew how to do it, all she had to do was cook it in the pan. What else could she do?
Cao Zhi had no choice but to take the meat and enter the kitchen.
“You can’t go in. Set up a stove here and cook in front of everyone!” Li Xiaoran said again.
“Yes, cook it in front of everyone!” said the bailiff who had drawn his saber.
When Lu Yu, who lived next door to the Qu family, heard these words, he immediately ran back to his house and brought out a small stove and spatula.
“I have a stove at home. Use my stove! The Qu family’s stove hasn’t been washed in years. Don’t waste such good meat!”
It wasn’t only because of this, but also because Lu Yu didn’t want the Qu family to take advantage of the situation.
After being neighbors with the Qu family for so many years, Lu Yu had a very clear understanding of the Qu family’s shamelessness. At the same time, he was disgusted by the Qu family.
Not only was he frequently taken advantage of by the Qu family, but he was also shocked by their shameless actions.
Now that he finally had someone to deal with the Qu family, he happily ran out to help.
Not only was there a small stove, but there were also pots, shovels, chopping boards, knives, salt, ginger, and chili.
“Look, I’ve prepared all these things! Let’s begin!” Lu Yu rubbed his hands and urged with anticipation.
With so many people staring at her, Cao Zhi couldn’t find an excuse. She could only brace herself.
“Wait!” Li Xiaoran suddenly stopped and walked forward to cut the meat in her hand into two. She placed the small piece on the chopping board. “I think it’s better not to let you waste so much meat. Cook less meat!”
As soon as she said this, everyone around her laughed. Cao Zhi blushed.
They didn’t know if it was because she was angry or embarrassed.
She quickly took the meat and began to chop it. After chopping it randomly, Cao Zhi planned to put the meat in the pot.
Seeing this, Li Xiaoran raised her eyebrows but didn’t say anything.
As the fire burned, the meat began to fry. In the end, the minced meat was all stuck together.
Cao Zhi used a spatula to cut some ginger, onions, garlic, and so on and threw them all into the pot.
After that, Cao Zhi put salt and chili in, then finally scooped up the minced meat.
After doing that, Cao Zhi returned to her man’s side.
“Qu Daren, is this the minced meat you usually eat?” The bailiff brought over the bowl of minced meat and asked.
Qu Daren looked at it and felt that it was similar to the meat in the Luo family’s shop, so he nodded.
“That’s right. My family eats this kind of minced meat.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Are you sure? It’s best to look at it clearly. Otherwise, you might start lying again later.” Li Xiaoran asked again.
“My wife made it herself. How could I not know?!” Qu Daren felt that this minced meat was the same as the minced meat he had secretly eaten previously.
When Li Xiaoran heard Qu Daren’s words, she borrowed a small bowl from Lu Yu’s house and scooped some minced meat from the pot.
“Please take a closer look. What’s the difference between our minced meat and the minced meat made by the Qu family?”
...
Li Xiaoran and the bailiff placed the two bowls together and invited the surrounding villagers to come forward to compare them.
They wouldn’t have known if they had not seen it, but upon looking, they were shocked.
“The difference between these two types of minced meat is too great!”
“Everyone, take a closer look at the stains on Qu Daren’s body and smell them!” Li Xiaoran reminded again.
As soon as she said this, Qu Daren thought of something and immediately wanted to wipe away the meat with his sleeve.
Unfortunately, the secret guard wouldn’t let Qu Daren do as he wished. He threw a stone at him and tapped his acupoints, preventing him from moving.
The bailiff was also smart. After hearing Li Xiaoran’s words, he walked over and took off Qu Daren’s clothes.
After comparison, the truth was obvious.
The minced meat that Li Xiaoran made was evenly sized. After it was stir-fried, there was no lump. It was evenly scattered.
The minced meat that Cao Zhi had made previously was in large lumps.
The bigger difference was that Li Xiaoran’s minced meat had a delicious aroma.
...
Even if the clothes were only slightly stained with the minced meat’s grease, one could still smell the aroma.
Cao Zhi’s minced meat only smelled like meat and didn’t have that aroma at all.
