Not long after, the two of them cleaned the bluestone slabs and set them up on the spot.
At this time, the first batch of pickled wolf meat was almost ready. He Zhiran brushed some oil on the bluestone and placed the wolf meat neatly on it.
Mo Jiuye squatted aside and added firewood under the stone slab.
The couple cooperated tacitly, and soon the alluring fragrance spread, making everyone's mouths water.
Peng Wang came over sniffing all the way.
He Zhiran picked up a piece of dried wolf meat and gave it to him.
"Master Peng, please try and see if dried meat with this flavor can be sold at a good price."
Peng Wang couldn't wait to put the dried meat into his mouth and chewed it carefully.
"It's crispy and delicious, with rich meat aroma. This is the first time I've tasted such chewy meat. It's really a rare delicacy."
This is Peng Wang’s heartfelt evaluation.
The first batch of dried meat baked by He Zhiran was approved, and she happily picked up a piece and stuffed it into Mo Jiuye's mouth.
"Husband, give it a try too."
With an inadvertent movement, her fingertips lightly touched Mo Jiuye's lips.
Mo Jiuye trembled slightly and felt that his heartbeat had accelerated by half a beat.
Unconsciously, he reached out and touched the place where He Zhiran had touched him. For some reason, he felt a sense of excitement.
In order to cover up the unnaturalness, Mo Jiuye chewed the dried meat seriously.
Not long after, He Zhiran's sweet voice rang through his ears again.
"Husband, is the jerky delicious?"
"It's delicious, it's delicious." Mo Jiuye wasn't thinking about the dried meat at the moment, so he couldn't evaluate it as carefully as Peng Wang did, but it was really delicious.
He Zhiran didn't look at Mo Jiuye's expression. He answered simply, assuming it was due to his cold temperament and didn't think too much about it.
She looked at Peng Wang again: "Master Peng, do you think this is still worthless wolf meat?"
"No, absolutely not. If you get this dried meat into the city, you will definitely be able to sell it for a good price."
Peng Wang seemed to have seen countless small coins being thrown towards him.
"Okay, let's follow this method and roast all the wolf meat into dried meat and sell it in the city.
And those wolf skins, if they are dried in the sun while the sun is shining, and treated properly, they will probably be sold for more money."
Listening to He Zhiran's eloquent words, Peng Wang admired her even more.
I really don’t know how much stuff is in this woman’s head and why she has so many solutions.
"Just do as you say."
Peng Wang simply stayed here and refused to leave. He had to get enough of such delicious dried meat first.
Anyway, there is so much wolf meat, it is not enough for him to eat...
While Peng Wang was eating, he seemed to remember something, turned around and ran away.
After a while, he brought a gourd of wine like a treasure.
He uncorked the wine, but he didn't drink it himself, but served it in front of Mo Jiuye.
"Such delicious dried meat, how can it be served without wine? You drink first."
When Mo Jiuye was in the military camp, he would often eat meat and drink wine with the soldiers.
Thinking of this long-lost feeling, he took the wine gourd without refusing. Just as he was about to take a sip, He Zhiran stopped him.
"You're still injured, so you can't drink."
Hearing this, Mo Jiuye's hand holding the wine gourd suddenly froze in place.
But soon, he returned the wine gourd to Peng Wang.
"My wife is right, I am injured and should not drink alcohol."
Peng Wang glanced at the two of them funny, took the wine gourd, and made a meaningful joke.
"I didn't expect that our majestic Duke would be henpecked."
Of course, Mo Jiuye knew that Peng Wang was joking, but he still said seriously: "Official, be careful, I am just a prisoner who was exiled by the decree, and I am no longer a prince."
Peng Wang also realized that his words were somewhat thoughtless.
"In this case, if I don't call you Grand Duke, don't call me Grand Master. If you don't mind, just call me Brother Peng."
Mo Jiuye is not a shy person, and besides, he also approves of Peng Wang's character.
"Brother Peng."
Peng Wang took a big sip of wine and laughed: "Hahaha... Okay, from now on you will be my brother Mo, and Heshi will be my younger brother and sister."
The relationship with the official chief has become closer, which is something He Zhiran can only dream of.
She grilled the jerky even harder.
The sisters-in-law and Mo Hanyue also came one after another looking for the source of the fragrance. He Zhiran quickly greeted them to taste the dried meat.
After eating this, they couldn't stop at all.
It was so delicious. Let alone on the road of exile, even when they were in the capital, they had never tasted such delicious food.
The sisters-in-law felt sorry for He Zhiran's hard work. After carefully learning the barbecue techniques from her, they took over her job.
He Zhiran stood up and stretched, then brought some roasted dried meat for everyone to taste.
Anyone who eats delicious dried meat will praise how delicious it is.
He Zhiran was so happy that he decided directly that the dried meat would be enough for today.
Until dark, due to limited tools, only one-third of the dried meat was cooked.
Mrs. Zhao was worried that the wolf meat would spoil if kept for a long time, so she took the initiative to take her family members to work overnight.
Mistress Xie also said that the family would have a rest during the day tomorrow and they would continue.
It is estimated that at this speed, all the jerky will be roasted before dark tomorrow.
The weather was sultry this season, so in order to prevent the pickled wolf meat from spoiling, He Zhiran took his people and moved it to the river.
The temperature here is relatively low, which is conducive to preservation.
After a busy day, I can finally rest.
After washing up, He Zhiran returned to the tent.
Mo Jiuye said with concern: "Go to rest early, you are working the hardest today."
He Zhiran originally thought that Mo Jiuye would say something to him at this time, but he didn't.
Since he doesn't say anything, just start by yourself.
"The Li family is expected to arrive in the capital tomorrow."
"Well, when they arrive in the capital, the news that the person who died in the hut was not me will soon be known to the enemy." Mo Jiuye's tone was extremely calm, as if what he said had nothing to do with him.
He Zhiran was a little puzzled by his attitude.
"Aren't you worried that they will send people over again?"
"This kind of thing is not something you and I can prevent." If Mo Jiuye hadn't been busy with He Zhiran all the time, I'm afraid Mo Jiuye would have been thinking about this issue all day long.
However, he didn't want He Zhiran to be troubled by this matter, so he acted so calmly on purpose.
In their current situation, if they encounter such a thing, the only option is to be passively beaten and exposed.
I'm afraid it's not that easy to take the initiative.
Even the most basic trick of catching the thief first and catching the king cannot be accomplished.
Li Rou'er died, and it was hard for her to be alone for two days, and she had to think about guarding against the evil hands of her enemies.
However, she knew that Ran would never be afraid of these, weren't they just invisible troubles?
