Chapter 876 - 876 Extra Story 3 The Rise of Jiang Feng (Part 1)
?Chapter 876: Extra Story 3: The Rise of Jiang Feng (Part 1) Chapter 876: Extra Story 3: The Rise of Jiang Feng (Part 1) Jiang Weiguo first realized he might lose his authority over the family’s New Year’s Eve dinner when it was just two hours before the dinner on the eve of the Lunar New Year.
Due to the experience last year when they couldn’t buy pork during New Year’s, Mrs. Jiang had called their neighbors, the Li family in October, asking them to keep an eye on the good pork in the village and to reserve half a pig in advance.
The pig was slaughtered on the afternoon of the eve of Lunar New Year.
The Jiang family members’ flight arrived at eleven o’clock the night before the eve. Fortunately, everyone was wealthy enough to afford first class plane tickets. If they had taken first class on the high-speed train as before, they might not have made it to city z by the time the pig was slaughtered.
Apart from Jiang Weiming, Jiang Weiguo and Mrs. Jiang rushed back to their hometown to handle the pork on the day of the eve, while the rest had to stay in city z for two days. They cleaned up the house that hadn’t been lived in for a year to make it feel like home again before returning to the countryside for the New Year.
By the way, originally, Jiang Weiming was supposed to spend New Year’s with the family of Jiang Yong in Magic City. However, Xu Cheng got so inspired by Jiang Feng and Chef Arno’s dishes during the finals that he decided to go find his original passion; “Taste” magazine staff had to work overtime for the New Year and would take their holiday after the Lantern Festival, so Jiang Yong could only have Jiang Weiming spend New Year’s with the Jiang family first and then meet up in Magic City after the Festival.
On the other hand, due to the rush in time, everyone decided not to get together on the eve, and each family would eat whatever they wanted. The feast and dumplings were to be reserved for the official celebration of the New Year.
Although the old Sir and two others were in a hurry to go back to the countryside, due to the exhaustion of travel, they didn’t rise early in the morning., By the time they bumped along in a van to the village entrance, it was already three in the afternoon, and the pig was already being slaughtered.
The trio could hear the pig’s heart-wrenching screams from the village entrance.
“They’re not slaughtering the pig we reserved, are they? Oh dear, Sir, I told you to leave earlier, leave earlier! It’s so late now, they’ve started slaughtering, quick, quick, quick, go home and get a basin to catch the pig blood, just in case Cuihua keeps our pig for herself. Last time I asked her to buy me roasted goose, she kept the goose butt for herself,” Mrs. Jiang hurriedly said as soon as she heard the pig, not even bothering with her luggage as she ran toward the house.
“What’s the rush? Didn’t we already say last time? She didn’t keep the goose butt, if she kept anything, it’d be the legs, who would want the butt?” the old Sir reluctantly followed with two suitcases in tow.
As they reached the door, Mrs. Jiang bumped into Li Cuihua who was directing her grandson to hurry with a basin.
“Liangliang, hurry up, today you and your Mrs. Jiang will be sharing the pig with Zhang Tuzi, that guy always loves to take advantage, if you’re late, he might hog all the pig blood. Then, Zhao LanHua is going to accuse me of stealing their family’s pig blood again.”
