Before long, the aroma wafting through the air had the entire village in a buzz, drawing not only the children but even the elderly who couldn't help but come over to see what deliciousness they were concocting.
Upon arrival, what a sight!
By then, the beef cubes in the pot had changed color, and Li Wenli deftly poured in chili oil and soybean paste, continuing to stir-fry vigorously.

The elderly, drawn by the smell, felt as if they hadn't eaten in decades. They were nearly fainting from hunger.
And the children, shamelessly, wailed, "Grandpa... I want to eat."
"Grandma... I want to eat..."
The sound of gulping was incessant as the elderly glanced at their own grandchildren, covering their mouths in embarrassment before quickly retreating.
