Hu Qiqi had just washed the basin full of crabs when she heard Wen Jiu, who was cutting vegetables next to him, sneezing madly.
Seeing this, he couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth and said: "Hey, hey, you still ask me to work so late! Is this retribution coming?"
"A sneeze! What kind of retribution?" Wen calmed down for a moment before continuing to chop vegetables, "Can sneezing be considered retribution?"
"Oh~ that's not the case!" Hu Qiqi stood up and took the pot of crabs to the pool. "Look, you sneezed so much just now, which means you will soon catch the cold."
Hearing this, Wen glanced at him for a long time and said, "Don't talk nonsense here, or I will pluck all your fox fur!"
She would be able to see Qiao Shishi and Li Qingyu tomorrow, but she must not let Hu Qiqi's crow's mouth tell her off.
Although the cold was not a big problem, she took so much trouble to get so many crabs just to make a butter to welcome Qiao Shishi and Li Qingyu.
This bald butter can be used not only for noodles but also for rice. It tastes rich and delicious and is hard to resist. She also hopes to use this bald butter to wake them up.
It's just that crabs are not suitable for people with colds. If Hu Qiqi is right, then she can only watch others enjoy the delicious food.
"Wow! Then I can use those furs to make balls?" I don't know where Stephanie came from.
Half an hour ago she was saying that she was sleepy and wanted to go back to her room to rest, but now she sneaked into the kitchen again.
Hearing this, Hu Qiqi blushed instantly, "Hey, why are you all like this! I treat you like a friend, but you treat me like a furball!"
"Just kidding, I wouldn't be willing to pluck your hair." Wen Jiu looked at his shy and annoyed look and couldn't help but smile and change the subject, "These crabs are sent by the nursery, they are very fresh."
"I'll use part of the crab to make some butter tonight, and then I'll make the remaining crab into spicy crab during the day."
As she said this, she remembered that Stephanie was not very good at eating spicy food.
So she added, "I will take out a few more and steam them. Steamed crabs with vinegar are also very delicious."
Hearing this, Stephanie was stunned for a moment, and then smiled happily.
She didn't expect that Wen Jiu would remember her own taste. She thought that he always cooked as he pleased and could cook whatever he wanted, so she ate in silence every time and never mentioned that she couldn't eat spicy food.
A warmth that she didn't know how to describe suddenly began to flow slowly in her heart.
"嘤嘘嘤~ Then I strongly request that the spicy crab be cooked more!" Hu Qiqi shouted in dissatisfaction, "Jiujiu, you can't be partial~"
"Xiao Jiujiu, why are you biased? She said spicy crab first and then steamed crab! You little fox is just ignorant. Be careful, I will pluck all your fur tonight!"
Stephanie said and raised her hand to scratch Hu Qiqi's itch.
Seeing this, Wen Jiu shook his head helplessly.
Qiao Shishi and Li Qingyu were already causing enough trouble, but now with the addition of Stephanie and Hu Qiqi, she might be able to make trouble all day and night.
"Okay, you two should go to bed quickly," she brought over the crabs that Hu Qiqi had washed, "I won't be busy here for long before I can rest."
The method and process of balsamic butter are actually not difficult, but it is more time-consuming to dismantle the crabs after steaming them.
Hearing this, Hu Qiqi and Stephanie looked at each other.
Then the two of them walked to the door of the kitchen in perfect agreement, but neither of them had any intention of taking a rest. They just sat cross-legged at the door and looked at Wen Jiu quietly.
Seeing this, Wen Jiu first put the crabs into the steamer one by one, and then took out a small piece of ginger to cut into ginger paste. "Okay, then I will take my time and do my work."
She knew that the two of them were worried that she would be busy for too long, so it was hard for her to speak out to urge them again, so she continued to concentrate on her own thing.
After the crabs were steamed, she methodically opened them and took out the crab roe and crab paste used to make the butter.
Because real bald butter only uses crab roe and crab paste, and the crab meat is separated and eaten separately, so she put the crab meat into another small bowl.
Although it was very time-consuming to separate the crabs, Wen Jiu's movements were not slow at all.
In less than half an hour, she had torn apart a pot full of crabs.
Then she took out the lard that had been boiled before from the refrigerator and boiled it in the pot together with the unpacked crab roe and crab paste.
The sound of sizzling oil kept ringing in the kitchen, and at the same time there was a strong aroma of oil spreading.
"Gudong." Hu Qiqi swallowed with eyes shining.
Hearing the sound, Stephanie couldn't help but walked over with a smile, "Little fox~ Are you so greedy?"
"Hey~ Who wouldn't be greedy after smelling this fragrance!" Hu Qiqi replied in a low voice, for fear of disturbing Wen Jiu while he was cooking butter.
After hearing his answer, Stephanie also lowered her voice, "You're right~ It's a pity that you can't eat such delicious bald butter."
"Hey, why can't I eat it?" Hu Qiqi looked at her with confusion.
However, the other party only shook his finger mysteriously, "Because Xiao Jiujiu prepared these for others~ Let me tell you another bad news~ When the two children come tomorrow, I'm afraid there will be no place for you in the family. ”
After hearing this, Hu Qiqi immediately showed a vigilant expression.
He knew that Wen Jiu paid special attention to the two people who were coming, but he never thought that he would be kicked out.
Stephanie was extremely satisfied when she saw his reaction, "Oh~ I just mentioned it casually, you can pretend you didn't hear it."
But just as she finished speaking, Wen Jiu's cold voice sounded.
"Stephanie, if you are sleepy, go and rest early. Why do people start talking in their sleep before they go to bed?"
Hearing this, she raised her head and met the other person's gaze, and she immediately felt like her thoughts were being seen through.
But she still pretended to be nonchalant and spoke in the same cheerful tone as usual: "Xiao Jiujiu~ Are you driving me away? I just want to spend more time with you~"
"Have you forgotten your old love when you have a new love?"
Hearing this, Wen Jiu poured some rice wine into the pot and replied calmly: "They are my old loves and not my new loves. You'd better think carefully before speaking."
Only Hu Qiqi, who was slow to react, didn't notice the problem. He was still immersed in the temptation of bald butter and couldn't extricate himself.
He even transformed into fox ears and tail and said coquettishly: "嘤嘤嘤~久久~ When the bald butter is ready, can you give me a taste?"
"Of course, I won't neglect you because of the arrival of Shishi and Qingyu." After Wen Jiu said this, he gave Stephanie a meaningful look. She always felt that the other party was a little strange during this time.
For example, just now, Stephanie was trying to instigate Hu Qiqi to rebel again.
Although those words didn't sound directed at her, the other party's targeting of Qiao Shishi and Li Qingyu was tantamount to going against her.
So she won't give Stephanie this chance.
