The water surface of the river behind the ridge is very wide and the water flows slowly. But in a shallow, the river water is extremely smooth and clear, and Jiang Xingchen smiles as soon as he sees it.
This shallow is at most one meter deep, and there are many river shrimps swimming under it, and they are not small in size.
"Sure enough, there are river shrimps, and now I have a good taste!" Jiang Xingchen immediately took out his net bag and took out the bison bones he carried with him. This is the remnant of his beef noodle beef bone soup. He brought it specifically today. If it is on earth, it is best to use sheep bones, but there is no sheep here, so it would be better to use this instead.
The old man, Mei'er, kitten girl, Xin'er and Ni'er all looked at Jiang Xingchen with curiosity, thinking about what he was going to do.
Jiang Xingchen put the cow bones into the net bag, turned his head to look at the few people, smiled, and threw the net bag into the water.
The movement of the net bag was shocked by the movement of the shrimps scattering, but soon, they all gathered again and entered the big belly of the net bag along the small mouth, and fell into the net.
After waiting for a while, Jiang Xingchen lifted up with force, and a clattering sound, the net bag was pulled up all of a sudden, and dozens of green shrimps inside jumped around.
"So big!" Jiang Xingchen let out a soft cry. He just felt that the river shrimp was not small, but when he saw it, he couldn't help but exclaim. Each shrimp was at least ten centimeters, larger than ordinary shrimps on earth.
"Boy, is this what you want to make?" The old man looked at the river shrimps jumping around in his net bag, and then looked at Jiang Xingchen with a weird expression.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Xingchen blinked and said, "This is an excellent delicacy!"
"You said... this is delicious! Stop talking. No one eats such an ugly thing at all. People who catch fish will throw it away!" The old man curled his lips and shook his head.
"Yes, brother. This thing is strange in shape, and it may not be poisonous!" Mei'er also nodded in agreement with the old man's words.
"Uh! No one has ever eaten river shrimp?" Jiang Xingchen was stunned for a moment, then laughed. It was the same as the first person to eat crabs. It looked strange, but no one dared to eat it! In addition, no one dared to eat bright colors. On earth, it seems that someone had eaten it until the last century.
"Haha!" Jiang Xingchen smiled and said, "Since you don't eat it, I'll make it back, you can't rob it!"
"Brother!" Mei'er frowned and seemed a little anxious. She didn't want her brother to be poisoned.
"Don't worry, it's okay! When did my brother do something I didn't know for sure!" Jiang Xingchen patted Mei'er on the shoulder.
"Jiang Jue, can this ugly thing really be eaten?" Ni'er asked biting her finger.
"Of course I can eat it. When the Lord is ready, I will guarantee you... Huh!" Jiang Xingchen hadn't finished speaking yet. Suddenly his eyes fixed on the edge of the shallow.
"Crab! I'm going so big!" Jiang Xingchen cheered, put his net bag on the ground, jumped over and grabbed the crab.
"Just as soon as the first person to eat crabs, I discovered crabs. Could it be that my buddy is so lucky... This guy, at least, has to be more than one pound, and he is a little overwhelmed. He must be fat enough. It's not until autumn yet!"
"Hmm?" Jiang Xingchen's sudden action made the old man, Mei'er and others stunned. They hurriedly surrounded him and saw that he had already grasped a dark blue color, full of armor, and waving two big pliers in his hand.
"Boy, why are you trying to catch a broken iron shell? Just throw it away!" the old man said loudly.
"What's the iron shell? Is this a crab? It's also a super delicious food!" Jiang Xingchen smiled and walked over and threw the crab into a cloth bag.
"What kind of crabs, what kind of deliciousness? This thing is called iron shells, no one eats it! Why are you crazy today? Why are you looking for these things that cannot be eaten?" The old man said, and went forward to touch Jiang Xingchen's forehead.
"Go!" Jiang Xingchen turned his head and avoided the old man's hand and said, "You can't eat what you said, don't regret it then!"
After saying that, Jiang Xingchen ignored the old man and ran to the river beach to climb over stones. Sure enough, after a few strokes, a big crab ran out, running rampantly and running fast!
"Where can you run!" Jiang Xingchen made a move like lightning, pinched the crab's tail fin and threw it into the cloth bag.
The old man, Mei'er, kitten girl, Xin'er looked at each other, not knowing what to say, and stared at Jiang Xingchen busying his work by the river beach.
In a short while, Jiang Xingchen had caught more than ten crabs, each with more than one pound, mostly with round fins.
It felt almost done, Jiang Xingchen stopped and poured the river shrimps in his net pocket into another cloth bag, and then he still went into the water.
After carrying three net bags in a row, Jiang Xingchen stopped, laughed and waved, "We have a good harvest today, let's go back!"
"Boy, are you really sure you don't have a fever?" The old man asked again, his expression was extremely serious this time.
"Brother, don't eat this thing!" Mei'er also advised him again.
"My brother has eaten this thing before, it's really okay!" Jiang Xingchen had to make up a lie. He could see that the old man and Mei'er were both serious and were definitely not joking.
"Brother has eaten it, why don't I know?" Mei'er asked in surprise.
"I ate when I was eight years old, but you haven't come yet!" Jiang Xingchen smiled and turned his head to the old man and said, "Don't worry, there will be no problem!"
At this time, the old man also knew that Jiang Xingchen must have eaten these two things, and he couldn't persuade him to come back. As for him, he said that he had eaten this food at the age of eight, the old man was not Mei'er and he didn't believe it at all.
The group hurried back home. Jiang Xingchen ran into the kitchen, made water first, then poured the river shrimp into clean water and washed it. After the water boiled, he grabbed two handfuls and threw them into the pot.
Fresh river shrimps don’t need any special conditioning. Just boil them in boiling water, and add some salt to enough.
In a short while, the river shrimp turned red. Jiang Xingchen immediately took it out of the pot, put it on the plate, and brought it to the house.
No one took action on the table. They all watched Jiang Xingchen peel a shrimp, revealing the white shrimp meat, and put it in his mouth and gently bit a small piece.
Although he kept saying it was okay, he was careful when he was eating and did not throw it into his mouth. After all, this world is very different from the earth, and it cannot be ruled out that the river shrimp is really poisonous.
The shrimp meat was tender, refreshing in the mouth, with a slight sweetness, exactly the same as the taste in my memory. Jiang Xingchen secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "It should be fine!"
The old man stared at Jiang Xingchen nervously, and as long as he had any wrong reaction, he would immediately take care of him.
Mei'er didn't say anything, but picked up a shrimp, peeled it like Jiang Xingchen, and took a small bite.
"Mei'er!" Jiang Xingchen saw the little girl's actions, quickly raised his hand and shouted.
"Brother, this one is really delicious, tender and fragrant!" Mei'er smiled sweetly at Jiang Xingchen.
For a moment, Jiang Xingchen felt his throat choked and wanted to say something, but he couldn't make a sound...
After half a month, everything was as usual. The old man grabbed Jiang Xingchen's wrist, pinched the pulse door and stopped for a while, and finally breathed out: "It seems that it's really okay, this thing can be eaten!"
Before he could finish his words, he suddenly reached out and grabbed seven or eight river shrimps from the plate, put them in front of him, and peeled them hard.
"I'll go, you're too cunning, old man!" Jiang Xingchen threw the remaining shrimp into his mouth and shouted: "Mei'er, start quickly, let him snatch it all in a while!"
"Oh!" Mei'er then breathed a sigh of relief and ate the remaining shrimps just now.
"Well~ Fresh, tender, delicious, it's really delicious! Boy, I really didn't expect this thing to be so delicious. Those fishing people used to be just a stingy guy, throwing away the best delicacies!" The old man said while eating.
Jiang Xingchen ignored him at all, and quickly peeled out shrimp meat with his hands.
The kitten girl also moved, and it seemed like she could learn from her own hands. The speed of peeling shrimp was so fast, not much worse than Jiang Xingchen.
Mei'er and Xin'er both looked slow, but if you look closely, you will find that their attack speed is not much inferior to that of the kitten girl.
In a short while, a plate of river shrimps came to the bottom, leaving only a table of shrimp skins.
Ni'er sat on a big chair, her little head just exposed to the table, staring at the empty plate on the table, and cried out with a wow. She didn't have time to start just now, and all the delicious plates were divided.
"Haha!" Jiang Xingchen smiled and patted the girl's head, and brought a few peeled shrimps to her.
Then, Mei'er, kitten girl, Xin'er, and even the old man left two for her.
"Thank you, Sir, ancestors, and sisters!" Ni'er burst into tears and laughed, grabbed the shrimp and put it into her mouth and chewed it hard, and made a murmur: "It's delicious, it's so delicious!"
The river shrimp is sure that it is okay, and the crabs are no longer a problem. Jiang Xingchen uses steaming. The seasoning is very simple, which is vinegar and minced ginger.
Before it was cooked, the unique aroma of crabs floated out, causing the old man to keep shaking his nose.
After extinguishing the fire, the lid of the pot was lifted and the back cover of each crab was pushed open with a full crab roe.
"Fat, so fat!" Jiang Xingchen swallowed his saliva and brought the crab to the table.
Eating this is not the same as eating shrimp. You are so impatient. Eating crabs is about slow work and meticulous work.
Although there were no hands-on tools, Jiang Xingchen had extremely flexible hands, one chopstick and two crab claws, and cleaned the crab roe, crab paste, and crab meat. Not only did he eat it himself, he also took care of the three girls Mei'er, Xin'er and Ni'er.
The old man and the kitten girl are not good. This kind of way to eat it is not suitable for them at all.
It is obviously more delicious than river shrimp, but eating it a little bit like this is really not satisfying.
Finally, the old man was so anxious that he tore off half of the crab body, dipped it in his dipping sauce, and put it directly into his mouth and chewed it. Jiang Xingchen was dumbfounded and was almost dumbfounded, and murmured: "So, crabs can be eaten like this..." (To be continued, please search for astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
