"Um."
Zhou Yan: "Zhulang Studio still has some things that I need to deal with."
Tang Xin guessed that something important had happened, otherwise Zhou Yan wouldn't have rushed back. She thought for a moment and said, "Tang Tang and I will go with you. We will have a companion along the way."
Zhou Yan nodded: "Then we'll leave in the afternoon."
"Okay." Tang Xin smiled: "Why don't Xiao Zhou show his craftsmanship to Auntie at noon?"
Obviously Tang Xin remembered what Zhou Yan said yesterday, and Zhou Yan also smiled and said: "That's necessary."
After that, Tang Xin didn't go home, but stayed with his daughter Tang Tang and porridge in Zhou Yan's room. Zhou Yan also went to a nearby vegetable market to buy some vegetables.
At noon, Xu's mother was still playing mahjong with her three aunts. When she saw Zhou Yan coming back with vegetables, she was also surprised: "What's going on with you, brat? Can you still buy vegetables by yourself?"
Xu Xiujuan wondered if the brat had changed his gender.
"I'll cook for lunch." Zhou Yan said.
"Can the food cooked by your boy be eaten?" Xu Xiujuan looked disbelieving.
Zhou Yan's face darkened: "Mom, why are you talking?"
"Hahaha, Mr. Zhou can also cook. Why don't we invite the three of us to try it at noon?" Aunt Wang also said with a smile at this time.
"That's right, let's try Xiao Zhou's craftsmanship." Aunt Liu also agreed.
"Go, go, I didn't buy much food." Xu Xiujuan waved her hand.
"Tch, Juanzi, you are just stingy." Aunt Wang gave Xu Xiujuan a roll of her eyes.
However, the third aunt just mentioned it and started playing mahjong again.
"Xiao Zhou is cooking, Juanzi, you can rub it for a while longer."
"Such a sensible child is hard to find. If my baby hadn't been in elementary school, he would have wanted to flirt with your son."
"Go! Go! Go."
Seeing the four aunts starting to play mahjong again, Zhou Yan also carried the dishes upstairs.
When he came to the kitchen, he found that Tang Xin was there.
She was wearing an apron and had a good figure, with a round waist that could be held, especially those beautiful legs in black stockings. When the sunlight from the window next to the kitchen was illuminated, Zhou Yan felt particularly smooth.
It's the tight and slender type, comparable to Ripples.
It's just that Aunt Tang is better in terms of career. After all, you can see the scale from the side.
Zhou Yan also came to Tang Xin. Tang Xin's body was very fragrant. Zhou Yan could smell a faint fragrance rushing into his nose while standing next to him.
It's that special scent, maybe it's body fragrance, or maybe it's the shower gel, but it smells good anyway.
Zhou Yan saw Tang Xin cutting minced garlic and said with a smile, "Aunt Tang isn't up there with Tang Tang?"
When Tang Xin saw it was Zhou Yan, he also smiled and said, "Come and help with the cooking."
The child was not very good at cooking and knife skills, so Tang Xin thought that he could make it faster with Zhou Yan.
Moreover, Tang Tang and Zhou Yan were sleeping soundly on Zhou Yan's bed. Tang Xin didn't notice Tang Tang when he came over, so he didn't disturb them.
I simply came down to help with the cooking.
Zhou Yan was naturally very happy.
It was also a special experience for his beautiful young mother-in-law to help him cook together.
Zhou Yan took out the vegetables he bought from the bag, including tomatoes, potatoes, cabbage, eggs, crabs, etc.
"I'll chop the vegetables." Tang Xin said with a smile.
"It's okay, Aunt Tang, I'll just come."
Zhou Yan had already picked up some empty bowls. He washed the cabbage in the sink and started cutting it.
Tang Xin was surprised to see Zhou Yan's quick knife skills.
He's so skilled that he hasn't been able to do it for five or six years. I guess Zhou Yan has done a lot of cooking.
"If Tang Tang becomes your wife in the future, I will probably die of happiness." Tang Xin took out the potatoes and joked with a smile.
"Don't worry, Aunt Tang, she will definitely come here to take care of you."
Zhou Yan said with a smile while cutting vegetables.
He cut the cabbage in three strokes.
Tang Xin also put a peeled potato into the bowl, and then continued to peel the next one.
Zhou Yan placed the potatoes on the eucalyptus board and began to cut the potatoes into shreds.
The two people cooperate very naturally.
After Tang Xin had finished cutting a Zhou Yan, he cut it into pieces.
Soon, a larger empty bowl was filled with shredded potatoes.
Zhou Yan took some water and started cutting tomatoes.
He is used to cutting the vegetables first and then cooking them. This way, he cooks them quickly.
Tang Xin was not idle either. After washing her hands, she put the crab bag in the sink and opened it. She wanted to handle the crabs.
The bag was opened, and inside there were blue crabs tied with large pliers. Tang Xin glanced at Zhou Yan. She was actually a little nervous about these crabs. After all, she had never dealt with them before, but Zhou Yan was still a child after all, so maybe he would He had little experience, so Tang Xin accepted his fate and got into it.
She was about to pick up a blue crab, thinking that if she was careful she wouldn't get pinched, but a hand suddenly stretched out from beside her and grabbed her wrist.
"Aunt Tang, I'll just come." Zhou Yan had already arrived at Tang Xin's side.
When he saw that Tang Xin was going to handle blue crabs, he immediately put down his kitchen knife and came over.
After all, blue crabs are different from other crabs. If you handle them carelessly, your fingers will be pinched. Of course, Zhou Yan cannot let Aunt Tang put herself in danger.
Tang Xin, who had never been touched by a man before, was being grabbed by Zhou Yan's wrist, and his face was slightly red. Although Zhou Yan quickly let go, Tang Xin's heartbeat was still beating a little fast.
She said softly: "It's okay, Xiao Zhou, I'll just take care of it."
"Okay Aunt Tang, you go ahead and chop the vegetables. I'll just take care of the crabs." Zhou Yan pressed Tang Xin's shoulder and said with a smile.
"well."
Tang Xin nodded numbly. President Tang, who was resolute and cold in front of his subordinates, was a little reluctant to let go in front of his prospective son-in-law.
She also came to the eucalyptus board obediently and started cutting vegetables.
Tang Xin is also very focused on cutting vegetables and doesn't think about other things.
And there weren't many vegetables to cut. After Tang Xin finished cutting, he watched Zhou Yan handle the crabs.
She was also afraid that Zhou Yan would be injured by a crab.
But she saw Zhou Yan pick up a crab, skillfully remove the two claws with scissors, put it into an overflowing basket, and then remove another one. Soon all the crab claws were removed, and the crab It was also put into a basket.
As for Tang Xin's worry that Zhou Yan's fingers would be pinched by a crab, it didn't happen. The crab's claws were all removed, so the crab naturally posed no threat.
Tang Xin murmured in her heart that she had never handled crabs before. Neither she nor Tang Tang liked eating crabs. She originally thought that she had to remove the rope first, but she didn't expect that Zhou Yan's method of handling crabs was simple and direct. It also prevents getting pinched.
Zhou Yan quickly came to the eucalyptus board with a basket containing crabs.
"Aunt Tang, let me take care of it."
Zhou Yan picked up the kitchen knife with a smile, and Tang Xin stepped aside in cooperation, but she was still a little confused: "Xiao Zhou, don't we steam it?"
"What's so delicious about steamed food? Let's eat stir-fried spicy crab today."
Zhou Yan smiled and directly removed the rope from a crab and pressed it on the eucalyptus board. With a few strokes of the kitchen knife, the originally living crab was cut into four pieces by Zhou Yan.
Spicy crab?
Hearing Zhou Yan talk about the name of this dish, Tang Xin couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
After all, she is used to steaming blue crabs, but steaming them feels like they lack a bit of flavor.
How does Zhou Yan cook this spicy crab?
Tang Xin was also a little curious.
She looked aside quietly.
At this time, Zhou Yan also started to clean the crabs that had been cut, and used the toothbrush he had prepared to clean all the dirty parts of the crabs before putting them on the plate.
The first dish is spicy crab, Zhou Yan does not include lake.
After turning on the range hood, heat the pot and heat the oil.
Pour the minced garlic and chili into it, and stir-fry until the aroma becomes fragrant. Zhou Yan also adds a little sugar. After stir-frying until it turns caramel color, he pours in a basket of chopped crabs and stir-fries.
Then add the seasonings and control the heat.
Zhou Yan's clouds and flowing water are flowing, and the aroma of crabs in a pot is overflowing.
Tang Xin looked at the spicy crab, which was similar to braised pork but obviously more fragrant and made her more appetizing. She couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
She really didn't know crabs could do this.
The key is that it's quite fragrant.
Zhou Yan's craftsmanship is really impressive.
I don’t know who I learned it from.
Tang Xin remembered that Zhou Yan had cooked dishes for Tang Tang several times, so he probably thought about and practiced a lot.
Zhou Yan quickly put the spicy crab on the plate and sprinkled some chopped green onion to add fragrance. No matter how you looked at it, you were very appetizing.
Tang Xin looked straight at the spicy crab, his thoughts were self-evident.
But Zhou Yan was here, and she could still control her greed.
She didn't do anything that was unbecoming of a mother-in-law.
Tang Xin was quite surprised when Zhou Yan prepared a dish so smoothly. She smiled and gave Zhou Yan a thumbs up: "Xiao Zhou is really awesome."
"Haha, I dare say Tangtang will definitely like to eat it."
Zhou Yan said with a smile.
Although there were no blue crabs when he was in Hongcheng, Zhou Yan also used ordinary white crabs to make spicy crabs for Tang Tang and Shen Li. At that time, the two greedy cats liked to smack their fingers after eating, so it was obvious that the taste was good.
Of course, it's not Zhou Yan's own praise. After all, although the skill of cooking spicy crabs was passed down from his father, he has practiced it in private for more than ten years, so his skills are definitely not perfect.
Zhou Yan can guarantee that Aunt Tang will still want to eat it.
Seeing Tang Xin looking at the spicy crab plate, Zhou Yan also smiled and said, "Aunt Tang, why don't you try it first?"
Tang Xin shook his head: "Let's wait for Tangtang and porridge."
In fact, if Zhou Yan hadn't been here, she would have taken advantage of it long ago, and she had to control it now.
"That's okay." Zhou Yan picked up the plastic wrap and covered the plate with crabs.
Tang Xin swallowed again, took the initiative to pick up the plate, came to the dining table and put it down.
"Aunt Tang can eat it secretly." Zhou Yan joked with a smile not far away.
Tang Xin's face was slightly red. She actually wanted to eat it secretly. Now that Zhou Yan had exposed it, she could only smile helplessly and said, "No."
Zhou Yan also started cooking another dish at this time.
Hot and sour potato shreds.
The oil pan started to steam.
The shredded potatoes are already in the pot.
Zhou Yan stir-fries.
Seeing Zhou Yan frying shredded potatoes like a chef, Tang Xin felt a little more envious in his eyes.
If Tang Tang gets along with Zhou Yan, he really doesn't have to worry about starving to death.
After all, Xiao Zhou is so good, and his cooking skills are not limited.
Thinking that if he and Zhou Yan were in the same family in the future, he would also be able to eat Zhou Yan's food, Tang Xin's greed started to rise.
She looked at the spicy crab wrapped well in plastic wrap.
I really want to try it.
Tang Xin glanced at Zhou Yan guiltily and saw that Zhou Yan was still flopping around without looking over, so he honestly began to lift a corner of the plastic wrap.
A crab claw was taken out.
In order to make it easier to eat, Zhou Yan smashed each removed crab claw with a kitchen knife before burning it.
Now after frying, Tang Xin could see the crab meat after the crab claws were broken.
It looks delicious.
But you have to try it to know.
After all, it may be just a show, not for food but for show.
Tang Xin is actually very confident in her cooking skills. Now that she sees that Zhou Yan's cooking skills may be better than hers, she feels a little bit a little bit dissatisfied.
After all, what if Tang Tang falls in love with Zhou Yan's food and stops eating the food cooked by her mother?
While Tang Xin was a little greedy, he also felt a little unwilling to admit defeat.
So she honestly peeled off the red-hot crab claws little by little, revealing the crab meat.
Then he put it to his mouth and ate it in one bite.
Tang Xin opened his eyes, enjoying the feeling of his taste buds exploding.
She only had one thought left now.
tasty!
It's really delicious.
Especially the crab meat is very crispy and feels like eating sea cucumber.
And after being specially fried, it obviously has a stronger taste than the steamed version.
Tang Xin still tastes very interesting.
So after eating a crab claw, Tang Xin picked up a piece of crab meat with crab legs. Zhou Yan cut each crab into several pieces, cleaned each piece, and fried only the remaining pieces. There is some golden crab meat underneath, and crab shells wrapped in salt, pepper and burnt garlic.
Tang Xin also quickly put it to his mouth and took a bite.
Very crispy.
Compared with the soft crab meat inside the crab claws, the crab meat wrapped in the crab shell is more tender and has a burnt layer on the outside, which makes it more delicious.
Tang Xin completely fell in love with this taste!
Even after eating one slice, she honestly sucked her finger like a little girl.
Really delicious!
Tang Xin glanced at Zhou Yan and found that Zhou Yan was still cooking and didn't look here.
Just now Zhou Yan said that he could eat secretly, but Tang Xin didn't think he could eat secretly.
But after seeing such delicious spicy crab fried by Zhou Yan, Tang Xin really couldn't control himself.
The dignified bank president was like a greedy cat possessing him, eating uncontrollably.
From time to time, he would glance at Zhou Yan guiltily. Seeing that Zhou Yan didn't notice, he was slightly relieved.
Can't blame her.
It's really delicious.
Zhou Yan was cooking vegetables at this time. In fact, he had already noticed Tang Xin stealing food at the dining table and smiled.
I thought Aunt Tang was quite cooperative.
Let her eat secretly.
However, Zhou Yan bought six blue crabs, and the portion was definitely enough. Even if he ate them secretly, he wouldn't be able to eat much. There would definitely be enough left for him, Congee, Tangtang, and Xu Xiujuan, so Zhou Yan ignored it and continued to fry. vegetable.
After sealing the plates with spicy and sour shredded potatoes and scrambled eggs with tomatoes with plastic wrap, Zhou Yan did not take them over immediately.
After all, if I catch my mother-in-law stealing food, I don’t even know if she will be embarrassed.
Mother-in-law, don’t you want to lose face?
So Zhou Yan was very kind and didn't take it over.
Taking advantage of the temperature of the pot, Zhou Yan continued to stir-fry the cabbage.
At this time, Tang Xin took the initiative to come to Zhou Yan's side and said, "There are two more dishes, let me bring them over."
Tang Xin also brought back two plates of food.
Zhou Yan twitched the corner of his mouth, but didn't say anything.
Tang Xin also pretended not to care and put the dishes on the table, which revealed his true nature.
She glanced at Zhou Yan and saw that he didn't find anything unusual, so she opened the plastic wrap of the tomatoes and scrambled eggs.
After trying the very delicious crab, Tang Xin also wanted to try Zhou Yan's tomato scrambled eggs.
Of course, I went there with the intention of comparing their cooking skills, not because of greed.
Just as Tang Xin reached over the plate of scrambled tomatoes and eggs, Tang Tang and Porridge came to the door of the kitchen and bumped into Tang Xin eating secretly.
Tang Tang was stunned, and met the eyes of Tang Xin, who was already feeling guilty, and said blankly: "Mom, you... are actually eating secretly!"
