Chapter 77: Pork with Dried Plum Vegetables


The magazine soon released the pre-sale link for the issue with Tang Qiaoqiao. On the cover, Tang Qiaoqiao was sitting inside a huge picture frame showing her side face and a dignified smile, like an oil painting girl from the last century. Classical and elegant.

However, one of her hands secretly stretched out the picture frame to reach fruit from the fruit basket above her head. The dignified picture suddenly revealed a sense of impropriety.

This contrast has unexpectedly achieved very good results. Many netizens said that the cover of this issue was very interesting. Tang Qiaoqiao, surrounded by various fruits, seemed to really exude a strong fruity fragrance and was very cute.

However, on the inside page, the group photo she took with the girl group members is in completely another style.

Xiao Wei and the other girls finally terminated the contract with the original brokerage company. They signed up with another prestigious brokerage company in the industry. In order to thank Tang Qiaoqiao for helping them get out of the devil's claws, they insisted on giving up the middle position to Tang Qiaoqiao in their pictures.

Tang Qiaoqiao has changed many sets of clothes. There is a red dress with suspenders, a shirt with a waist and boots, which can be both charming and comfortable. All sorts of 18 different styles can be done, and it is not too contrast with the girl group at all. If people didn't know, they would think she was the captain.

The fashion circle exploded.

As soon as the magazine link was released, all 20,000 copies were gone. The magazine quickly replenished the stock, but it still sold out.

The sugar rabbits are naturally desperate to get their idol's first magazine cover, but Tang Qiaoqiao also attracts many passersby. In addition, she and the girl group's exposure to Gou Dong's evil deeds caused an uproar. Many people expressed their support through buying the magazines.

In the end, the sales volume far exceeded the magazine's expectations by dozens of times, and the editor's face was full of smiles. Many other magazines were so jealous that they began to think about Tang Qiaoqiao in their future shooting plans. Just after Tang Qiaoqiao broke into the fashion circle, her elbow injury almost healed. She has to return to the movie crew "Cocoon" to continue shooting non-stop.

Yu Li, played by Tang Qiaoqiao, lived in a villa for a day and found that there was an uneasy weirdness everywhere.

At night, she woke up from a nightmare and found that her husband was sleepwalking. He was digging a pit in the wasteland by himself with a hoe. The next day, she found herself at the bottom of the pit with a lot of dead ducks, but her husband turned a blind eye to them and blamed Yu Li for being so nervous and having nothing to do.

A pile of strange things superimposed on each other, which made Yu Li's suspicion of her husband becoming more and more serious.

Why did he suddenly take her to such a remote place for vacation?

Obviously, so many weird things have happened. Why is he not surprised at all?

Only he knew this place. Yu Li didn't even know the way back. If something happened to her here, who would know about it?

Yu Li began to suspect that her husband had an affair, so he created a series of horrible things to scare her to death. Then he will say it was an accident.

Yu Li wanted to escape at first, but after she secretly asked her son, he didn't want to go with her at all. He wanted to play with his father. Only her cute daughter would follow wherever she went.

When the son did not want to leave, Yu Li was worried. She decided to stay and look again, trying to find evidence that her husband wanted to kill her.

However, this stay brought her a complete life turnaround.

...

Chen Hao re-watched Tang Qiaoqiao's performance on the monitor. She really played a neurotic woman into perfection. He felt a little depressed when he watched it. He never felt this kind of personal feeling when he did those vulgar horror films before.

Seeing that Tang Qiaoqiao played so well, Chen Hao was worried that she would be affected by the role and could not let it go. However, in fact, he thought too much. His heroine could let go of the character in seconds.

"Director, the media for the squad has arrived." Said the assistant who just walked over.

Chen Hao looked up from the monitor and said, "They arrived so soon, isn't it scheduled for after four o'clock in the afternoon?"

The assistant said, "They said they wanted to take more footage, so they arrived early."

While they were talking, a female reporter, a photographer, and other staff came over and greeted the director cordially.

This movie is a domestically produced thriller, which was originally not a big hit. But they have received great attention since Tang Qiaoqiao joined them.

In addition, the landslide accident some time ago has also increased the popularity of the film. When they learned that Tang Qiaoqiao had returned to the crew, the media took the initiative to visit the set. Media exploration means that there will be more channels for publicity, so the crew will naturally not refuse.

After the reporter and the director exchanged a few words, the reporter looked around the set and asked, "Where's the heroine, Tang Qiaoqiao? I'm here to interview her. Our interview's live broadcast has been opened."

Chen Hao scratched his head and said, "Excuse me. You came here too early. She is not here at the moment."

"Why? Does Tang Qiaoqiao has other works today?" the reporter asked.

"No, no, a villager in the village below is hosting a birthday banquet today. Tang Qiaoqiao was invited to have a drink. It hasn't been long since she left."

The director's explanation made the reporter and the netizens in the live chat room dumbfounded.

【Did I heard that right? Did the director say that Tang Qiaoqiao went to the village for a birthday banquet???】

【Isn't Tang Qiaoqiao making a movie? What does the nearby village have to do with her? 】

【Hahahaha. I think it's Tang Qiaoqiao's style. Last time, she just recorded a reality show then went to the local villager's home to sell corns. There was nothing she couldn't do.】

...

The reporter's mind turned, and suddenly she felt that it was a better thing to report, so she said excitedly, "Director, do you know where the banquet is? Can we go and see her?"

Chen Hao thought for a while and asked the assistant to take the reporters.

On the way, the assistant director explained to the reporter the cause of this invitation. It turned out to be because Tang Qiaoqiao helped to save people in the last landslide accident. Several of the rescued were villagers from nearby mountains.

Later, in order to express their gratitude to the crew and Tang Qiaoqiao, the villagers often sent some agricultural goods to the crew. They became acquainted with the crew after they went back and forth. The crew also invited several aunts to perform as extras.

The villager who is hosting a birthday banquet is the elder of a villager Tang Qiaoqiao rescued, so Tang Qiaoqiao was invited to attend.

At this moment, Tang Qiaoqiao had nothing to do, and the village was so close, so she agreed.

The assistant took the reporter group to the villager's house. As soon as they entered, they saw everyone sitting and standing in the yard. It was so lively.

When they heard that a female celebrity would come, almost the entire village was dispatched. Fortunately, everyone is relatively orderly, and there is no chaos.

However, the reporter couldn't find Tang Qiaoqiao's figure in the banquet. Shouldn't she be regarded as a guest of honor, sitting and eating happily?

"Hello, where is Tang Qiaoqiao?" The reporter had to find someone to ask.

A passerby smiled and said, "You also came to see Tang Qiaoqiao? She is cooking over there."

'Cooking?'

Didn't Tang Qiaoqiao come to be a guest? Why did she cook at the banquet?

The reporter was full of doubts, struggling to squeeze herself into the most crowded circle.

As soon as she squeezed in, she heard everyone cheering in unison, "Alright!"

The reporter took a closer look and saw that Tang Qiaoqiao was standing in front of a large iron wok, and in the wok, dried vegetables were fried and tossed mid-air. It fell back into the wok perfectly and won the applause from the crowd again.

It is very rare for a female star to be invited to a banquet by nearby villagers while she was filming.

The reporter and her crew all had black question marks on their faces.

However, the reporter soon realized that this was even better and quickly asked her camera guy to shoot Tang Qiaoqiao.

In the live broadcast chatroom:

【My head is full of small question marks. Did Tang Qiaoqiao come as a guest or take over a job as a cook? Why did she cook her own dishes? 】

【Your mom. Tang Qiaoqiao never plays cards according to the routine. No matter what you guessed, you would lose. I had laughed to death, quack quack quack】

【Look at Tang Qiaoqiao's dress. She is perfectly integrated, without any sense of disobedience!!!】

【Fuck, I only saw Tang Qiaoqiao's fashion magazine, and I almost didn't dare to recognize her hahahaha】

【My grandmother wore that kind of sleeve 】

【Of course, you must wear a simpler dress for banquets in the countryside. Qiao Bao won't show off a star attitude】

【You are all looking at what Tang Qiaoqiao wears. Am I the only one who wants to know what dishes she cooks? It must be delicious. The people present are blessed】

At this time, Tang Qiaoqiao is wearing a ponytail and wearing a very old-fashioned red festive jacket with a gray homespun apron around her waist and blue floral sleeve guards on her arms.

Her whole body describes a village woman!

But with the appearance of a village woman, Tang Qiaoqiao's face is stunning. No one in the crowd could ignore her smiling face.

"The vegetables are fried. Let's deal with pork belly." For banquets in the countryside, people pay attention to enough food. There are several thick and long pork bellies in the stainless steel basin next to Tang Qiaoqiao, all of which are 60% fat and 40% lean.

"Let's blanch the pork belly first." Tang Qiaoqiao directly puts the pork belly into a hot, empty pot and scolds the skin until it is blanched and turned yellow. Then she put it in boiling water, added spices, and blanched it again with cooking wine for a few minutes.

The blanched pork belly is colored with soy sauce. Once the oil is heated in the pan, the pork belly is deep-fried.

The pigskin was fried crisply in the frying pan, with small bubbles on the surface. The air was filled with a strong fried meat fragrance, which made the reporter can't help but swallow. The camera lens got closer and closer.

After the pork belly was fried, Tang Qiaoqiao cut them into evenly thick pieces, sprinkled them with seasonings, and spread them in a large round bowl.

Next, she put the fried dried plums vegetables on the pork belly, put on medium heat, and steamed it for half an hour before pouring it into a large bowl.

After Tang Qiaoqiao finished cooking the pork with dried plum vegetables, she was invited by the host to take a seat.

The reporter asked and found out that Tang Qiaoqiao was only showing her hand. She only cooked the dish of pork with dried plums vegetables, and the chef was responsible for the other dishes.

The reporter saw that Tang Qiaoqiao was finally free and stepped forward to say hello. When the host saw that a reporter had come, he quickly greeted her and the cameraman to take a seat. The reporter rejected twice but was unable to stop the host's hospitality, so she sat down for a meal.

It didn't take long for the banquet to start, and one dish after another was served on the table, with Tang Qiaoqiao's pork with dried plums vegetables in the center.

The dried plum vegetables are bright in color. The pork belly slices wrap the vegetables tightly, and there is a thick soup around them.

Almost everyone was waiting for this dish and started to move their chopsticks as soon as it came up.

The pork belly has been steamed until very soft, and it has the fragrance of dried plums vegetables. The salty taste contains a hint of sweetness. It is full of oil but not too fat and not greasy. You can taste the crispy feeling of the pork skin after chewing, and the dried vegetables are very oil-absorbing. The two blended with each other and were perfect!

At this time, people will just take a white steamed bun, split it in the middle, pick up a chopstick and stuff it in with dried plums vegetables. The delicious soup is soaked in the steamed white steamed bun, and the taste is absolutely perfect.

The pork with dried plums vegetables was empty only a short while later. The reporter only grabbed two bites and has not eaten enough.

【I'm not jealous, really. It's the same when I eat buns and pickled mustard. (Crying)】

【I'm greedy. Forget it. Don't worry about the two bites. Just let me have one bite】

【This reporter is really lucky. Just visiting a set can still catch up with Tang Qiaoqiao's cooking skills】

...

The reporter herself did not expect that she was originally just visiting the film crew, but it turned into a live broadcast of a rural birthday banquet. After the meal, she took advantage of the opportunity to interview Tang Qiaoqiao during the dinner. After that, she found a few villagers and wanted to ask them what they thought of Tang Qiaoqiao.

Everyone was full of praise for Tang Qiaoqiao. Even an aunt wanted to introduce someone to her.

But an uncle interjected, "That little girl still needs you to introduce someone? She already has a guy."

Reporter: ???

She suddenly smells a big melon.

Translator Note:

Pork with Mei Choy is a very common and popular Chinese dish.

Mei Choy, also known as dried plums vegetables, is a traditional Chinese cooking ingredient. The stems and leaves of potherb mustard or other mustard are pickled and dried in salt. 

There isn't actually a plum in this dish. It just called that way because this particular pickled vegetables has a slight acidity similar to plum
