Chapter 255 - 255: Eating Lobster (2)
Looking at the strange-looking thing in his hand, Father Jian asked curiously, “Big sister, what is this? Why haven’t I seen it before?”
Shifeng County did not have any lobsters, so Father Jian did not recognize it.
Jian Qingqing explained, “This is lobster. Spicy lobster is very delicious. You can eat it later.”
Thinking of Jian Qingqings delicious cooking, Jian Dalang swallowed his saliva. He was looking forward to this strange-looking thing.
After the lobster was processed, Jian Dalang lit a fire for her. Jian Qingqing prepared the ingredients. She first oil the lobster, scooped it out, and then put in the spices to cook it.
The spices were wrapped in hot oil, and the fragrance immediately erupted. The entire kitchen was filled with fragrance.
After the spices were done, the lobsters were put in and stir-fried together. All kinds of spices were added, and the lid of the pot was closed.
Because there were only four people eating at noon, and Mother Jian and Xiao Hu were all in the county town, Jian Qingqing only made a portion, but even though there was only a portion, there was more than half of the pot.
When she opened the lid again, a burst of fragrance that was even stronger than before spread out. Jian Qingqing almost cried, and hot tears filled her eyes.
It was this familiar smell! She really missed it!
On the other hand, Jian Dalang did not have such good self-control. At this moment, he was frantically swallowing his saliva. His eyes were burning as he looked at the lobster in the pot. “Big Sister, do you want to make other dishes?”
Jian Qingqing shook her head. She could not wait to start eating. She did not have the mood to cook anymore.
She took out all the lobsters. Because there were too many of them, she used a small wooden basin to wash the vegetables. It was filled to the brim, and there was even a small tip on top of it.
Father Jian took a large basin of lobsters to the dining room. Jian Qingqing followed behind and announced, “Let’s Eat!”
Old Man Jian also smelled the overbearing fragrance. He swallowed his saliva and said, “Big Sister, your cooking is really good!”
Even though Ming Zhiyan was still a little restrained, he still stared at the red and shiny lobster in the basin.
Jian Qingqing served them a bowl of white rice and urged, ‘Eat quickly, eat quickly!’
She could not wait any longer!
The few of them picked up a lobster at the same time and began to peel the shell after nagging about the juice on the surface.
Jian Qingqing narrowed her eyes and enjoyed a bite. She was so moved that she was about to cry.
It was really too delicious!
Old Man Jian and Father Jian were not that skilled at peeling shells. After Jian Qingqing ate two, they were still struggling with the first one. They were so anxious that their foreheads were sweating.
Ming Zhiyan took a look, but Jian Qingqing was still focused on the juice. She did not notice the others at all.
He picked up a lobster, peeling it in a few bites. First, he put it into Old Man Jian’s bowl. Then, he quickly peeled another one and gave it to Father Jian. Old Man Jian and da Lang Jian said gratefully, “Thank you, Zhiyan!’
Ming Zhiyan pursed her lips into a smile and peeled another lobster for Jian Qingqing.
Jian Qingqing looked up casually in her busy schedule. With a lobster stuffed in her mouth, she said vaguely, “Big Brother Ming, you eat it too. I can peel it myself.”
Ming Zhiyan replied with an ‘okay’ . He did not listen to her and continued to peel the shells for the three of them.
Because the lobsters were too delicious, no one noticed that Ming Zhiyan did not eat much.
When they were slightly full, the three of them were satisfied. They licked their lips and sighed in satisfaction. Only then did they notice how many lobsters Ming Zhiyan had peeled for them.
Instantly, they were all a little embarrassed.
Old Man Jian said, “Zhiyan, hurry up and eat. Why are you only peeling for us?
Jian Qingqing looked at the remaining half of the lobster in the basin. She picked up a peeled lobster and placed it into Ming Zhiyan’s bowl. “Hurry up and
Ming Zhiyan smiled and then lowered his head to eat. This meal could be said to be very satisfying for everyone..
