In the back, sitting behind Old Huang, Xiao Ye chimed in at the right time and said, "Wow! Then what about the Outer City people? What benefits do they get?"
Xiao Ding said proudly, "Speaking of Outer City folks, now that's a long list."
"Hot water showers, daily rationed meals, and once every two days you get a meat dish."
"Woooooow!!!!"
"And that's not all, we even held banquets before. At the banquet, pig's head meat, beef head soup, vegetables all-you-can-eat.
Aunt Zhou's cooking is seriously amazing!
I think the best of all is the braised pig trotter rice.
Soft and tender, fresh and fragrant, fatty but not greasy, loads of sauce,
soaked right through the rice, plus some half-raw cabbage to cut the grease, the flavor is super rich.
Just imagine that pig trotter rice, when the rice and the fatty-lean meat all mix together.
The warmth of the rice, the aroma of the meat, the taste of the sauce all mixing as one,
a big mouthful, and a huge sense of satisfaction.
