After eating, the two of them wandered on the street for a while. Liu Yuewang made a few calls and asked An Nuan to go home.
After all, high school graduates like Liu Changan were rare. Not long after An Nuan left, Liu Changan received an interesting message.
"Uncle, do you think a male classmate of mine would agree to have a circumcision during the summer?"
Ever since Liu Changan told her that he had a son, she had changed the way she addressed him in her messages to "Uncle."
"It can't be that Liu Changan who is shamelessly pursuing you, right?"
"Yes, yes, that's him."
"Why?"
"I think if I do that, he won't be able to harass me during the summer. He will have to stay at home."
"You're too embarrassed to mention this kind of surgery to him, right?"
"I'm trying to think of a way. My mom knows a doctor in the hospital who specializes in this field. If it's free, will he agree?"
"How would I know? You can try."
It was rare for Liu Changan to stop walking. He laughed for a while before slowly walking home.
When he reached home, An Nuan was also home. She sent a message to Liu Changan: My mom wants me to tell you that she can let you have a circumcision surgery for free! God, I really don't know what she is thinking. She thinks that I will be safe during the summer.
"Is she the chief surgeon?"
"Liu Changan!"
"Yes, I understand. I refuse. I don't need it."
The two girls were so cute. When Liu Changan went to the market to buy a goose, he didn't even bargain.
The food market near the residential area was not big. Geese were considered rare. Turtles, ducks, small fish, shrimps, and so on were all brought in by farmers in the suburbs.
Roast goose, herbal tea, and lychee were commonly known as the Three Treasures of Nanyue. As the Cantonese cuisine became more popular, Jun Sha started to eat roast goose. The traditional methods of stir-frying and stewing geese had also decreased. After all, a lion-head goose would weigh up to 20 catties, while the smaller ones would weigh up to 10 catties. It would require a lot of effort to cook it, and most families would rarely buy a goose for themselves. However, there were many private restaurants that served goose as a specialty.
Of course, Liu Changan was the kind of person who had the time and patience to eat geese. When he got home, he tied the goose to the window and warned Zhou Dongdong, who came to watch, to stay away from the goose. The strength of the goose was amazing. In the past, when he lived in the countryside, the villagers often used the goose to guard the house. Common dogs and jackals were no match for it.
"Goose goose goose, singing to the sky." Zhou Dongdong greeted the goose and waved her hand.
"And then?"
"Goose goose goose, singing to the sky."
"I'm asking you what's below."
"Goose goose goose, singing to the sky."
Liu Changan did not ask her anymore. He went to move the bricks and built a stove. Then he dug a big lump of wet mud at the edge of the pit for raising loach and smeared it on the stove.
"Changan gege, are you playing with mud? My classmates said that I was a child who played with mud. Their parents said not to play with children who play with mud. " Zhou Dongdong looked at Liu Changan sympathetically. Changan gege did not have any friends, so he had to play with mud.
"You don't want to play with me?"
"I'll play with you." Zhou Dongdong squatted down and took the rest of the mud and smeared it on the stove.
"Wait for me to light the fire. People who do things will have food to eat." Liu Changan pulled her to the side. "There is dry firewood under the stairs. Bring some over."
Zhou Dongdong wiped her hands and quickly went to move the firewood. She was very happy. Because Changan gege made delicious food, Zhou Dongdong could eat several bowls.
Liu Changan boiled a large pot of hot water and fed some Erguotou to the goose. This will make the goose's feathers stand up and convenient for plucking later.
"What's the difference between a goose and a swan?" Zhou Dongdong waited for the fire. She moved a small stool and sat next to the stove to watch Liu Changan kill the goose.
"They are all delicious."
Liu Changan killed the goose and prepared to bleed it. The goose's vitality was very strong, far more than ordinary birds. Liu Changan even felt a surge of covetous surging from the side of the carriage.
The goose was much more expensive than the hen. Liu Changan wanted to eat it himself.
After bleeding, he poured boiling water to remove the feathers. Then he boiled it on the fire. He cut it open and cleaned the internal organs. He put salt mixed with chopped green onion and pepper in the white wine and rubbed it evenly inside the belly of the goose. He then stuffed a handful of green onion inside.
He smeared the wine mixed with honey juice on the back of the goose. He put a large pot on the stove. He poured a large bowl of wine and a large bowl of water into the pot. He used bamboo chopsticks to hold the goose in the water. He covered the edge of the pot with a wet cloth. The rest of the work was left to Zhou Dongdong to light the fire.
"Burn slowly … Just burn these two handfuls of firewood and you'll be done. Tell me to switch sides after you're done. I'll lie down for a while." Liu Changan instructed Zhou Dongdong, who was rubbing his palms together eagerly. It was finally his turn.
Zhou Dongdong was next to the fire. Liu Changan was next to her reading a book. He taught her the next two lines of "Goose goose goose song".
"What's the use of reciting poetry?"
"It seems useless."
"Then why should I recite it?"
"Because you're a stupid child. Only by reciting poetry can you look smarter."
"Goose goose goose, I bend my neck and sing to the sky."
"And then?"
"Goose goose …"
As the two were talking, Liu Changan saw Gao Cunyi coming again.
This time, he was followed by a two-meter tall man. He looked somewhat similar to Chen Chang-soo. He had the same messy eyebrows, bulging eyes, and swollen cheeks. He stared at Liu Changan impatiently.
"Liu Changan, I'm here to disturb you again." Gao Cunyi cupped his hands toward Liu Changan.
"Since you're here to disturb me, you shouldn't have come."
"I have to obey my master's order." Gao Cunyi also looked a little embarrassed. "Liu Changan, things in the world are like this. There's never true freedom. Many times, you're always forced to accept things that you don't want to accept. If you don't solve it, it's not a solution to keep refusing."
"You can make it sound so insightful." Liu Changan laughed.
Gao Cunyi looked embarrassed. "I can't help it."
"I'm not going." Liu Changan didn't mind Gao Cunyi coming a few more times. Most people might find it annoying, but Liu Changan was patient.
"Junior Brother, why are you talking to him?" The strong man behind Gao Cunyi came forward.
"This is my Senior Brother, Wang Yibo." Gao Cunyi introduced, "Since you're not willing to spar with my master for the time being, can you spar with my Senior Brother? There's no need for you to visit us. We've already delivered ourselves to our door. You can rest assured that we'll stop when the time is right. "
Zhou Dongdong was listening to the long-winded conversation between the adults with her eyes wide open, but she also understood that they were here to fight with her Brother Changan again. Zhou Dongdong was very angry. She ran over and pushed Wang Yibo, shouting, "You bad guys, go away!"
"Bastard!" Wang Yibo reached out to grab Zhou Dongdong's head.
Gao Cunyi was taken aback. He knew that this Senior Brother had always been violent. This child would inevitably be slapped or thrown away. He was about to stop him, but he saw a flash in front of him. Liu Changan, who was originally on the recliner, had disappeared. He instantly appeared in front of Wang Yibo and reached out to pinch Wang Yibo's palm.
Liu Changan's other hand hugged Zhou Dongdong and covered her eyes with his palm.
"You …" Wang Yibo only felt a sharp pain. He clenched his teeth tightly. Sweat had already appeared on his forehead.
"Liu Changan, I'm sorry." Gao Cunyi quickly apologized.
Liu Changan didn't care about Gao Cunyi's apology. He exerted force with his fingers, only to hear the sound of bones cracking inch by inch. He lifted his leg and kicked Wang Yibo's lower abdomen. Wang Yibo's whole body flew out and hit the sycamore tree.
The thick trunk shook, and leaves fell one by one. It was as if the autumn wind was blowing, and the leaves were sour.
"Don't do this in the future." Liu Changan touched Zhou Dongdong's head. "It's very dangerous. Children can hide behind adults."
"We're cooking delicious food. They're so annoying!" Zhou Dongdong hugged Liu Changan's thigh and looked at Wang Yibo. "I don't like them bullying Brother Changan."
"It's okay. I'm the fifth best in the world when it comes to fighting."
"Why is it the fifth best in the world and not the first?" Zhou Dongdong had watched TV. There were always people who said that they were the first in the world.
"The world is so big. There must be a few people who are better than me." Liu Changan said with uncertainty. He looked at Wang Yibo and Gao Cunyi in front of him.
