Chapter 120 Spicy Flower Crab
night.
Master Lin was busy at the stove, and Assistant Fu was cleaning the clams that had spit out the sand.
Yes, they are having a midnight snack.
After they picked up the orchid crabs, they couldn't stop and kept picking them up until it was completely dark.
All I can say is that the supplies were too abundant. She picked up more than 20 orchid crabs, a wooden barrel of sea urchins, a wooden barrel of clams, and some shells and conches. She didn't plan to eat the meat since she didn't recognize them, so she could only collect these beautiful shells and snails.
She stir-fried six orchid crabs and steamed four of them. She also stir-fried a plate of clams, and kept the rest on the fishing boat.
After Fu Qi cleaned the clams, he watched Lin Jiaojiao heat the oil in a pan. When the oil was hot, he added ginger to stir-fry until fragrant, then added the orchid crabs that had been cut in half and coated with starch and placed them evenly in the pan.
Put chili in the empty oil in the middle, add a spoonful of cooking wine, then pour the prepared sauce into the pot, cover it and simmer for two minutes.
Open the lid, add onion shreds and stir-fry evenly, then sprinkle with green onion shreds and serve.
She brought the spicy flower crab to the table and called the person next to her, "Fu Qi, come and try it. I'm already drooling."
She picked up the chopsticks and put a piece of crab meat into his bowl, then she picked one up for herself and took a bite impatiently. Although it was a little hot, it couldn't stop her from biting off the delicious piece in the middle.
"Fu Qi, please sit down and eat slowly. I'll go fry the clams."
She now felt like the owner of a night market snack stall. She simply cleaned the pot, heated it up, poured in oil, added onions, ginger and garlic, stir-fried them, then added a small piece of hot pot base, poured in the clams and stir-fried evenly, and finally drizzled the soul sauce on it.
She took the food out of the pot, put it on a plate and placed it on the table. Finally, she put the orchid crab to be steamed into the steamer. When everything was ready, she hurriedly sat down at the table and started eating.
After eating spicy food for a few days, Fu Qi has gradually gotten used to it. The main reason is that it is really delicious. The hotter it is, the more I want to eat it. Fortunately, there is coconut water to relieve the spiciness.
She looked at him, his nose running from the spicy smell, and smiled as she took out a tissue to wipe his nose.
"Sister Jiaojiao, I'll do it myself."
"It's okay. I've seen you in all kinds of situations. The wind is getting stronger and stronger. It's still a bit cold at night. Let's go to the boathouse and eat after the pot is steamed."
"Okay, then I'll move some things onto the boat first."
"Okay, let's go together."
The two of them worked for a while, and finally she carried the pot onto the boat. There was only a table left in the room, and she had put everything else into her backpack.
She put the pot on the table and took out the steamed orchid crabs. She prepared one for Fu Qi and taught him how to eat it, then she started eating it herself.
"Sister Jiaojiao, this meat is so fresh and sweet. Shall we go pick it up tomorrow?"
She looked up at his expectant face. Although she wanted to stop and pick up enough, time did not allow it.
"After breakfast tomorrow morning we will set out along the coast to see if there are any villages nearby."
Seeing a flash of disappointment in his eyes, she immediately said, "But we have to go ashore to rest at night. Then we can look around to see if there is anything."
His eyes sparkled. "Okay, Sister Jiaojiao, can you dry this crab? I want to bring it back for mom and the others to try."
She thought about it carefully, and it seemed that she had never seen dried crab before, "It seems not possible."
He felt a little sorry, but then he thought that he had caught so many fish and that was enough, so he said happily: "It's okay, the fish I caught are enough for them to eat for a long time."
Seeing his proud look, she smiled and said, "Yes, our Fu Qi is really amazing."
"By the way, I also picked up some beautiful shells for my brothers. I wonder if they will like them?"
After he finished speaking, he walked to the stern and brought in the shells he had cleaned and dried, holding them up with his palms facing upwards to show her as if offering a treasure.
"Fu Qi, you are so amazing! What you picked is much prettier than what I picked! It's so beautiful, they will like it."
Hearing her praise, he felt relieved and hoped that her family would accept him. He didn't want any status, he just wanted to be with her.
As soon as she thought about the husbands waiting for her to come home, she felt a little worried. How should she tell them when the time comes? Should she say that she went out and brought them a younger brother? Although it was normal to have multiple husbands, she always felt like a scumbag.
She was guilty of not being able to resist temptation and falling in love with everyone she met.
Fu Qi couldn't eat anymore after eating a steamed crab. The main reason was that he drank too much coconut water before and his stomach was already a little bloated.
She had no choice but to finish the remaining food. She felt that if she continued eating like this, she would soon become fat.
After having supper, she washed the pots and dishes, took them back to the boathouse and put them in her backpack. While she was washing the dishes, Fu Qi had already wiped herself clean with a wet towel in the house and changed into pajamas.
She simply poured the boiled water into a wooden barrel filled with clean water, and took a comfortable bath outside the boat in the open air. She called Fu Qi to come down and take a bath, but he was shy and didn't come.
She didn't care. In this world, she wouldn't suffer any loss even if others saw her. Besides, it was pitch black outside and even if someone came to see her, they could only see a silhouette.
She also washed her hair with soap, and now she felt her whole body smelled fragrant. After changing her clothes, she dried her hair and asked Fu Qi in the room.
"Fu Qi, are you really not going to wash? You will feel comfortable and smell good after washing."
Fu Qi was listening in the room. He really wanted to wash himself thoroughly. Although he wiped his body every day, he always felt uncomfortable without washing directly with water.
She helped him wash his hair the day before yesterday, so she probably won’t have time to help him wash his hair tomorrow.
So tangled...
Seeing that he didn't respond for a long time, Lin Jiaojiao thought that he was probably still struggling and couldn't get over the barrier in his heart. In order to stop him from struggling, she thought of a way.
"Fu Qi, I'll make you a curtain so that no one can see you washing inside the curtain."
"Forget it, it's too much trouble..."
"It's okay, it will be fine in a moment. I'll go get you some hot water."
After she finished speaking, without waiting for his response, she picked up the pot and put it on the stove, first added firewood and lit it, then exchanged some water to fill the pot.
She returned to the boathouse, browsed the mall and exchanged it for a large iron ring, and then exchanged it for a waterproof cloth and an iron clip.
She took the cloth, wrapped it around the iron ring and fixed it with several iron clips. Finally, she exchanged it for three two-meter-long clothes racks.
She first took a clothes hanger and stuck it into the mud beside the boat to fix it. Then she put the iron ring on it and asked Fu Qi to hold the iron ring steady. She quickly jumped off the boat and stuck the other two clothes hangers into the mud in the position of the iron ring.
"Fu Qi, let go and try. I'll see if it's fixed firmly."
"it is good."
After he let go, the iron ring was firmly fixed on the clothes peg. He looked happy but tears were about to flow from the corners of his eyes.
"Sister Jiaojiao, it worked!"
It feels good to be loved.
