Shen Xiangnan looked up and saw a smiling face.

"Chef, what are you doing here?"

"Xiao Lu, why are you here?"

Lu Jiao shook the book in her hand, "I just finished night school, and I was going to come here to memorize the book. When I came here, I saw you sitting here stunned, with your arms so big that even a mosquito wouldn't know it."

Shen Xiangnan looked at the place where he was hit on his arm, and sure enough there was a blood stain the size of a fingernail.

As soon as he raised his hand to wipe it, Lu Jiao had already taken out a handkerchief and wiped it off for him.

"thank you."

Shen Xiangnan was a little surprised and moved, and couldn't help but take a closer look at Lu Jiao's face.

She has thick eyebrows and big eyes, slightly raised eyelids, and slightly thick lips. She is not very beautiful, but she has a lively and cheerful energy that only a young girl can have.

Lu Jiao noticed Erya on the bench and lowered her voice: "Chef, is this your daughter? She's sleepy. Why don't you take her home to sleep?"

Shen Xiangnan was hesitant to find an excuse, but Lu Jiao covered her mouth and smiled, "Did you have a quarrel with your sister-in-law?"

Shen Xiangnan said, "How do you know?"

Lu Jiao sat down and said with a smile: "With my sister-in-law's temper, if you were fined so much today, she will definitely make trouble with you."

Looking at the girl's vivid profile, Shen Xiangnan asked curiously: "Do you know what her temperament is?"

Lu Jiao snorted, "Let's remember Shen, who doesn't know that the one in your family is a tigress?"

After saying that, he smiled and said, "Chef, I'm just joking, don't be angry."

Shen Xiangnan snorted, "You are right, she is just a tigress, arrogant and unreasonable, and has no conscience."

Lu Jiao blinked, "Chef, did you really quarrel with your sister-in-law?"

Shen Xiangnan remained silent, which was regarded as acquiescence.

Lu Jiao smiled and comforted: "It's not a big deal. There are no couples who don't quarrel. As the saying goes, if you quarrel at the end of the bed, you will end up at the end of the bed. It's getting late. Go back and lower your head to your sister-in-law and say a few soft words." If you say so, this matter will be over, you believe me."

Shen Xiangnan was suffocating in his heart. Hearing these words, he became even more angry: "Why should I bow to her? I can spoil her!"

Lu Jiao laughed, "You are a man, and a man should give in to his wife."

Shen Xiangnan didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, and instead looked at the book in her hand, "What book are you reading?"

"English, Inglisi."

"You're a waiter, why should you learn this?"

Lu Jiao smiled, with confidence in her smile, "I am only a temporary waiter. I cannot be a waiter for the rest of my life."

Shen Xiangnan was already bored, so after hearing this, he couldn't help but start chatting with the other party.

"Then what job do you want to do?"

"I want to do foreign trade. My cousin is a foreign trade merchandiser. Not only does she earn a high income, but she also often has the opportunity to go abroad to see the world. To do foreign trade, you need to be good at English, so I am learning English while working as a waiter. In the future, I will join a foreign trade company. I also want to go abroad to see if the foreign moon is rounder than ours."

After learning this, Shen Mingzhu couldn't help but appreciate and admire the girl in front of her more.

Shen remembered that there were so many waitresses. What everyone usually talked about was not how they dressed, but who married well and whose men made a lot of money, except for the fact that the parents were short-lived.

In comparison, Lu Jiao looks particularly different.

"Chef, actually you can also learn English."

Shen Xiangnan waved his hands repeatedly, "I can't do it. I'm uneducated. I can't even write all the words."

"Learning English does not require education, as long as you can speak it with your mouth and have the brain to memorize it. After you learn English, you can go to the capital to work as a chef in a big hotel in Shanghai, receive foreign guests, and communicate with them. You can even go to Participate in international cooking competitions and become a first-class celebrity chef.”

Shen Xiangnan looked at the girl beside him and was speechless for a long time.

Going to a big city like the capital sounds far away and unrealistic, but what man can resist the temptation of fame and fortune?

His peaceful life seemed to have been thrown into chaos.

……

In the living room, Pei Yang pretended to be watching TV, but his eyes glanced into the kitchen from time to time.

Looking at the clock, it was already ten o'clock, and Pei Yang kicked Pei Ziheng with his toes.

"Ask your mother when you want to go to bed."

Pei Ziheng glanced at him, his face cold, "Why don't you go?"

"Your mother is in a bad mood. If I bother her, I will definitely get scolded."

Haha, "You picked me up, so you don't feel bad when I get scolded, right?" Pei Yang choked, "That's nonsense. Your mother loves you, so she won't scold you."

Pei Ziheng said: "Then I can't make my mother angry."

It makes sense, but I can't refute it.

Pei Yang turned to look at his daughter who was leaning on his son.

Guoguo's eyes were watery from sleepiness, and she saw Pei Yang looking over and stretching out two thin arms for a hug.

"Dad, sleepy."

Pei Yang took his daughter off the sofa and patted her little butt, "Go to your mother and ask when she will go to bed."

Guoguo was obedient, rubbed her eyes and went to the kitchen.

See, having a daughter is still useful.

When Pei Yang turned around, he met his son's contemptuous eyes.

"Mom, sleepy."

Shen Mingzhu lowered her head and looked at her daughter who was holding her calf and acting coquettishly, frowning slightly, "Pei Yang!"

"arrive--"

Pei Yang ran to the kitchen, "What's wrong?"

"What time is it? Why don't you take the kids to bed yet!?"

"Guo Guo won't go to bed until he hears you tell a story, right, Guo Guo?"

Shen Mingzhu glared at him, bent down to coax her daughter and said, "Be good, go to bed with daddy, and mommy will tell you a new story tomorrow night, okay?"

Hearing the new story, Guoguo nodded immediately, "Okay."

Seeing this, Pei Yang had no choice but to pick up his daughter and go upstairs to sleep.

After the father and daughter went upstairs, Pei Ziheng turned off the TV, stood up and entered the kitchen.

"Mother."

Shen Mingzhu glanced at him and said, "It's getting late, go to bed."

"I'm not sleepy yet."

Pei Ziheng said, walking up to her.

"Mom, what is the name of the new dish you researched?"

"Crab with pickled sauce."

"Can we eat raw crabs?"

"Yes, as long as it's done well, the raw ones will taste better than the cooked ones."

"Mom, can you teach me? I want to learn."

"Okay."

Shen Mingzhu glanced at her son, who was almost at her shoulder height, smiled slightly, and started by selecting crabs, raising crabs in clean water and spitting sand, and then teaching how to make raw marinade.

Pei Ziheng listened carefully, watching her demonstration and writing down the steps in his mind.

Pei Yang coaxed his daughter to come to the kitchen door. When he saw his son learning to cook from Shen Mingzhu, he shamelessly joined in.

Half an hour later——

"smell good!"

As the red marinade boils in the iron pot, the entire kitchen is filled with a rich and tantalizing aroma.

Shen Mingzhu took a clean bowl, filled a spoonful of marinade to taste, and then handed it to the father and son to taste.

Boil the marinade, turn off the heat and filter, put it in a basin of ice water to cool it down as quickly as possible, and then start processing the swimming crabs.

Rinse the swimming crab clean inside and out, including the small lid of the belly button, which should also be opened and brushed.

Drain the cleaned swimming crabs, apply Maotai wine evenly, and then put them into the glass jar one by one.

After placing the swimming crabs, place some raw garlic cloves and chili peppers in the gaps in the glass jar, and then pour the cool marinade into the glass jar until the crabs are completely submerged.

Then put a fist-sized pebble on the crab to press it down to ensure that each crab can absorb the flavor. (End of chapter)
