Chapter 88 Crayfish (hissing)
As school was about to start, Xiang Wan took some time to check on the progress.
After receiving inside information in advance, Peng Qingliang hired a large number of workers to work at one time in order to speed up the construction of the garment factory. He also paid more than the market price, so the workers worked harder and harder.
The day before school started, Peng Qingliang brought Yin Zhengjiang to Xiang Wan's home, carrying a sack of lobsters in his hand.
As soon as they entered the door, they saw Xiang Xiong and his daughter lying on a lounge chair, drinking tea and chatting. Peng Qingliang couldn't help but smile.
"Fortunately, I'm at home, otherwise it would have been in vain."
The father and daughter immediately looked towards the door.
Xiang Wan stared at the sack in Peng Qingliang's hand and narrowed his eyes: "What good thing are you holding? Why are you still moving?"
Peng Qingliang weighed the sack and smiled brightly: "Didn't you say a few days ago that you wanted to eat this meatless lobster? I sent someone to catch a sack in the countryside and let you eat enough this time."
A few days ago, Xiang Wan was bored at home, so he followed Peng Qingliang to the village to collect fish. He saw the children in the village catching lobsters and they were quite big, so he said something about it. Unexpectedly, Peng Qingliang took it down. It really made people do this.
Come more.
Xiang Xiong opened the sack and saw the crayfish inside, his face full of confusion: "How do you make this thing? Roast and eat it one by one?"
At this time, the recipe of spicy crayfish was not yet popular, so only the children in the village who were hungry for meat would go out to catch it in the fields under the sun. In the countryside, oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar were very important. If the lobster was not cooked with enough seasoning, it would be particularly unpalatable.
So children in the countryside would roast and eat it. Xiang Xiong often did this when he was very young.
Peng Qingliang and Yin Zhengjiang had never eaten lobster, so they looked at Xiang Wan in confusion.
"You can stir-fry it with chili peppers to make spicy crayfish, or you can stir-fry it with minced garlic to make garlic crayfish. I know how to do it but I don't know how to make it."
After saying that, Xiang Wan looked at the few people pitifully.
How could the three of them endure such pitiful and innocent looks from Xiang Wan? They all patted their chests to express that it was okay.
In the end, Xiang Wan directed the cooking, and Xiang Xiong and the other three were responsible for cleaning and stir-frying.
I have been craving crayfish for a long time, and this time Peng Qingliang carried nearly thirty kilograms, which was enough to satisfy him.
The three of them were afraid that Xiang Wan would be caught in the shrimp claws, so they didn't let her do anything. Xiang Wan couldn't turn around and went to the kitchen to cut peppers, green onions and other ingredients, and also peeled a lot of garlic, so she was ready to take action.
After cleaning, Xiong Xiong took the spoon to Peng Qingliang to light the fire. Yin Zhengjiang stood silently aside and was responsible for passing the seasonings.
After Xiang Wan took a look at the prepared condiments, he always felt that something was missing. Seeing Xiang Xiong pick up the shrimps and pour them into the pot, Xiang Wan said instantly: "Dad, wait a minute, I'll go back to the house to get them."
Order some white wine, otherwise the fried lobster will smell fishy."
After hearing this, Xiang Xiong suddenly realized: "Let me tell you, I also speculated on this stuff when I was a kid. No wonder the fishy smell is so strong."
Xiang Wan smiled and quickly ran to the living room to pour a bowl of bulk liquor.
"I'll peel some more potatoes for side dishes."
Before he could reach out to Wan, Yin Zhengjiang on the side quickly picked up the potatoes and said warmly: "I'll do it, don't peel your hands."
Xiang Wan was helpless and was driven out of the kitchen by three people in a short while, saying that it was not good for girls to smell too much oil smoke.
Xiang Wan had no choice but to go back and lie down under the eaves.
Soon the yard was filled with the spicy aroma of fried oil, which made Xiang Wan swallow his saliva.
After hearing Xiang Xiong say to wash his hands and start eating in the kitchen, Xiang Wan jumped up from the recliner, quickly wiped the dining table and ran to wash his hands and serve the dishes.
Thirty kilograms of crayfish were stir-fried four times, of which twenty kilograms were spicy and ten kilograms were fragrant with garlic. Peng Qingliang, who taught the kitchen, was extremely fragrant.
Three large pots of crayfish were served on the table. When Xiang Wan saw that Peng Qingliang was about to go out, he quickly asked: "Brother Peng, where are you going when dinner is ready?"
At this time, Xiang Xiong came out of the kitchen with two bowls of spicy crayfish and said with a smile: "This is my first time making shrimps. Xiao Peng couldn't finish what I brought. I thought about giving them to you, Uncle Deng and Chen Dong."
Send some over and buy a bottle of wine on the street."
"Okay, then you guys should go slower on the road."
By the time Xiang Xiong and the two came back, it was already fifteen minutes later. Fortunately, Peng Qingliang drove by quickly, otherwise Xiang Wan was afraid that he would cry.
The four of them sat down. Xiang Xiong poured three glasses of white wine and put them in their hands. Then he waved his hand: "Let's eat."
Xiang Wan glanced at the three of them, smiled, took a bottle of soda from the living room and put it at hand, then quickly peeled the shrimps and ate them to their heart's content.
After drinking and eating, Peng Qingliang touched his belly and sighed with satisfaction: "I didn't expect this thing to be so delicious. I've eaten so much today that I have to rest before going back."
“Brother Xiang’s craftsmanship is so good, that’s why it’s so delicious.”
Xiang Xiong waved his hands hurriedly: "Putting so many seasonings in it makes the food taste delicious no matter how unpleasant it is. This is not my fault."
Everyone laughed out loud, and even Yin Zhengjiang, who was always calm, couldn't help but curl up his lips.
Thirty kilograms of crayfish were given to Fu Cuiju and Deng Zhike, three kilograms each. Xiang Wan couldn't eat any more after four kilograms, and Xiang Xiong and the other two took care of the rest.
Everyone was a little stuffed after eating, but Xiang Wan felt a little better. He got up and went to the living room to pour herbal tea for the three of them to relieve their tiredness.
Looking at the "achievements" of the place, Peng Qingliang was still a little unsatisfied: "I will go to the village to buy some back in two days, and we will do the same thing then."
Xiang Wan agreed with both hands, and Xiang Xiong and Yin Zhengjiang had no objections.
After talking for half an hour, Peng Qingliang and Yin Zhengjiang consciously went to the kitchen to wash the dishes. Xiang Wan saw Xiang Xiong holding his stomach and said with a smile: "Dad, I'll sweep the floor. You can rest for a while. Don't eat like this in the future."
If you eat too much, it will be easy to accumulate food and be unable to digest it at night. I will go out for a walk with you later."
"My daughter is still considerate."
The father and daughter went out together with Peng Qingliang, but the four of them separated at the entrance of the alley.
Xiang Xiong led Xiang Wan towards Zhongxin Street. As he walked, he patted his belly and said, "School starts tomorrow. It's close to the school. Just stay at home. Dad can always make delicious food for you."
repair."
Xiang Wan had no intention of living on campus from the beginning to the end. He would talk about it later in college. After hearing Xiang Xiong's words, he nodded in agreement.
Xiang Xiong gently patted his daughter on the shoulder, his eyes extremely loving: "You have grown so big in a blink of an eye, but dad still thinks you are still young."
Xiang Wan remained silent.
The father and daughter walked on the street for nearly an hour before returning home. Xiang Xiong's stomach felt much better. After returning home and washing up, he opened the wardrobe and picked out the clothes to wear tomorrow.
Xiang Wan went back to his room and fell asleep immediately without thinking about what he would wear when school starts tomorrow.
The next day, both father and daughter got up early, and after having breakfast, they walked towards Beishi High School.
Xiang Xiong originally planned to take his daughter there on a bicycle, but was ruthlessly rejected by Xiang Wan.
After arriving at school, Xiang Xiong stood at the school gate and waved to his daughter: "Dad is waiting for you here. If there are too many books to hold, just come out and call me."
"I understand, Dad, please find a shady place to wait for me, don't stay out in the sun."
"Ai."
I just happened to eat crayfish today, haha~
