Chapter 44 Seafood Dinner
The next day after returning from Jinmen, He Yuzhu sent Yu Yu to school. He Yuzhu first sent seafood, specialty twists, dried fruits, etc. brought back from Jinmen to his uncle Peng Dahai and others.
In the afternoon, He Yuzhu came to Master's house with large and small bags of seafood and other specialties.
As soon as he entered the door, He Yuzhu shouted: "Master's wife, come out quickly and help me."
The master's wife was resting at home and came out when she heard He Yuzhu's shout. Seeing He Yuzhu carrying many things in his hands, there were many more on his bicycle.
"Zhuzi, where did you go to rob? Why did you bring so many things?"
When He Yuzhu saw his wife coming, he quickly handed the snacks and dried fruit preserves to his wife: "Didn't I take advantage of the rain to take a break and take her to Jinmen? The specialties I brought back from there."
The mistress looked at the snacks handed over by He Yuzhu, who was a little hard to hold, and said:
"How much did you buy? This is too much. If you can't eat this much, take it back to Yuyu."
"Senior Wife, I keep it at home for rainwater. You take it in first. I also brought seafood on my bicycle. I'll call Senior Sister over later. Let's have a seafood dinner tonight." With that, He Yuzhu gave away the seafood he brought Arrived at the kitchen.
He Yuzhu went to the home of his senior sister Fan Ting again. In the summer, her senior sister Fan Ting gave birth to a boy named Zhou Yuanchao, who was very characteristic of the times.
He Yuzhu knocked on the door, and Fan Ting came out and opened the door.
"Zhuzhu, why are you here?"
"I'm here to pick you up and take you to my wife's house. I brought back a lot of specialties and seafood from Jinmen yesterday. Let's have a seafood dinner tonight."
"Okay, you come in and sit down first. I'll clean up before we leave." Fan Ting opened the door to let He Yuzhu in.
When He Yuzhu entered the door and didn't see his nephew, he asked: "Where is Xiao Yuanchao?"
"It's in the house." Fan Ting said, entering the bedroom and taking the child out. I picked up some more baby supplies. Said to He Yuzhu: "Let's go."
He Yuzhu followed Fan Ting out and took Fan Ting to his teacher's wife's house on his bicycle: "Sister, please go in first, I have to get something."
Seeing Fan Ting entering with her child in her arms, He Yuzhu rode his bicycle and told his brother-in-law Zhou Jianye to go to his master's house for dinner after get off work. Then I rode my bicycle back to Master's house.
At the door of the master's house, He Yuzhu took out the barbecue grill he had hired someone to make before. Although he wanted to have a seafood dinner, He Yuzhu still took out 5 pounds of mutton and beef. There are also some fruits.
The mistress held Xiao Yuanchao in her arms and saw He Yuzhu bringing a lot of things again: "Zhuzhu, why did you bring something else?"
He Yuzhu: "I'm going to have some barbecue tonight and get some beef and mutton."
Wife: "Just give it a try."
"If the cook doesn't bother with some food and drink, why bother?" He Yuzhu put the barbecue grill in the yard and took the meat into the kitchen.
Fan Ting also went into the kitchen to help and asked, "What can I do for you?"
"Help me brush those scallops, crabs, oysters and shrimp crawlers."
He Yuzhu started cutting beef and mutton and preparing minced garlic and barbecue seasonings.
Fan Ting picked up Yuyu and Xiaohu after school, while Fan Yao came back with her friends. When you see the barbecue grills and various seafood in the yard, you know you are in for a feast. He put down his schoolbag and started walking around the kitchen, causing trouble for He Yuzhu and Fan Ting.
Fan Ting couldn't stand it anymore: "Go, go, all three of you go and play, don't cause any trouble here."
The three people refused to leave and watched helplessly at the kitchen door.
He Yuzhu gave each of them a small crab: "Go and play with it. Be careful not to get pinched. If you make trouble again, you won't be able to eat the delicious food tonight."
In the evening, Zhou Jianye came over first. When I entered the door, I saw He Yuzhu putting charcoal on the barbecue grill in the yard. There were a lot of seafood and meat skewers on the side: "Hey, the barbecue tonight is rich enough."
"Brother-in-law is here, come and help me light the fire." When He Yuzhu saw Zhou Jianye, he quickly asked him to come over and help.
After a while, the master came back with his second senior brother. The second senior brother saw this situation and rushed over to help, taking over the position of He Yuzhu's barbecue master.
He Yuzhu also quickly entered the kitchen and started cooking. After a while, a steamed seafood dish and a garlic seafood dish were ready. Fan Ting brought it out. He Yuzhu came out with a portion of salt and pepper shrimps: "You guys eat first, Fan Yao and the others are hungry."
Fan Ting and Yuanyu all sat down. After the master's wife put Xiao Yuanchao to sleep, he also came out and sat down with his master Fan Dakang.
He Yuzhu looked at the seafood porridge in the pot and turned down the heat. He let the porridge heat in the pot and drank it later.
"Brother-in-law, senior brother, don't bake it yet. Eat some first. It won't taste good after it gets cold." He Yuzhu came out of the kitchen and called to his second senior brother and Zhou Jianye to eat first.
The two of them also came and sat down with grilled meat skewers, oysters and scallops.
"Come on, come on, pour them all." He Yuzhu picked up the boiled rice wine to relieve his worries, and poured it for his master, senior brother and Zhou Jianye.
After drinking, everyone started to eat prawns and crabs.
The second senior brother ate some steamed prawns and said, "These prawns are good. Fresh seafood is delicious. It has a fresh and sweet taste."
He Yuzhu: "That's right, seafood, don't you have to eat fresh food?"
Xiaoting, eat less crabs. Crabs are cold in nature and eat more shrimps. "The teacher's wife was peeling shrimps for Yuyu and Xiaohu. When she looked up and saw Fan Ting eating crabs, she quickly reminded her.
When the senior sister heard what she said, she could only give the half-eaten crab to her brother-in-law Zhou Jianye, and then tried hard on the prawns and prawns.
Not long after eating, I heard that little Yuanchao woke up and was crying in the room. The senior sister quickly put down the shrimp in her hands and went into the room to comfort the child.
He Yuzhu saw that Shi Niang and Yu Yu had almost eaten, so he went to the kitchen and brought out a large bowl of seafood porridge, and scooped out a bowl for each of Shi Niang and Yu Yu: "Drink some more porridge, I put a lot of good things in it." .”
After a while, the master's wife finished eating, went in to replace the senior sister, and asked the senior sister to come out and eat some more.
After the meal, everyone ate a lot of seafood, but the beef and mutton were not touched much.
