"Dad, dad, have you ever tried black bean sauce braised eel?"
Once ashore, Shen Baobao imdiately sent a ssage to Shen Guofu to inquire about the taste of this dish.
Shen Guofu, who was at ho munching on Mixed Grain Pancakes, replied right away, "Yes, I have. The so-called braised eel is actually white eel, marinated in black bean sauce and then stead. The flavor is so delicious that it’s addictive. What’s up, sweetie? Why are you asking about this dish all of a sudden?"
He truly lived up to his na as the little gourt prince. He described the special features of the dish in just a few words.
After texting with his daughter and looking at the Mixed Grain Pancakes on the table, Shen Guofu sighed softly.
A day without at is really hard to endure.
When are you coming back, son-in-law? Dad misses you so much!
「By the reservoir.」
After reading this ssage, Shen Baobao rapidly typed a reply, "Just now, Xubao’s second uncle caught a wild eel from the reservoir as thick as a rolling pin. Xubao said he’s going to make braised eel tomorrow, so I wanted to know if the eel would taste the sa."
Wild eel?
Shen Guofu furrowed his brows and thought hard for a mont. I don’t think I’ve ever had braised eel made with wild eel before.
But if it’s made by his son-in-law, it should taste fantastic, right?
The mont he thought about Lin Xu’s culinary skills, the little gourt prince couldn’t help but reminisce about all those delicious dishes he had eaten in the past. Without his son-in-law in Beijing, all he could do was chew on Mixed Grain Pancakes to get by.
Co back soon, son-in-law. Dad really misses you!
After his mont of reflection, he looked over his daughter’s ssage again.
Braised eel made with that thick wild eel should be very tasty, right?
It’s a pity Yinzhou is too far away. Otherwise, I’d definitely drive over tomorrow to freeload a al.
Thinking about his daughter feasting at her son-in-law’s house while he was at ho chewing on Mixed Grain Pancakes, Shen Guofu’s mood instantly collapsed.
He turned to Han Shuzhen, who was sipping on mixed grain porridge, and said, "Dear, I saw online today that eating more eel is good for beauty and health. How about we go to Fishing Platform’s Building 10 tomorrow to eat black bean sauce braised eel? It will also replenish your trace elents."
Han Shuzhen took a bite of the small pickles on the table, "Old Shen, it’s a rare chance for us to eat lean while Little Xu isn’t around. Once he’s back, it’ll be all sorts of delicious food again."
Yes, and besides, our son-in-law’s cooking is so good.
There’s no need to eat out. What our own family makes is much tastier, isn’t it?
When Shen Guofu heard his wife wasn’t falling for it, he patiently tried to persuade her, "We don’t know when Xubao will co back, but your beauty can’t wait. We’d better go eat."
If he hadn’t said anything, it would have been better.
The mont he spoke, Han Shuzhen glared at him, "Old Shen, are you saying I’m old?"
Shen Guofu: "..."
I... I... I... I just want to eat so at! Why is it so hard?
Through a lot of coaxing and sweet-talking, he finally managed to bring a smile back to Han Shuzhen’s face, "You just want to eat at, why beat around the bush so much... Alright, we’ll go tomorrow. Just don’t eat too much. It’ll also be a good opportunity for to ask Chef Guo at Building 10 what soup is good for reducing uric acid. We need to figure out how to lower your uric acid levels."
Shen Guofu imdiately perked up when he heard this, "Thank you, my dear wife. Nobody treats as well as you do."
He picked up a Mixed Grain Pancake and took a big bite. Endure this al today, and tomorrow will be full of delicious food!
However, just as he was chewing, his daughter sent another picture, "Dad, this is the braised rabbit at we had today. We added lard when cooking it, and the taste is super amazing. You should try it too when you get a chance."
Braised rabbit at?
Lard?
Shen Guofu glanced at the Mixed Grain Pancake in his hand. He couldn’t swallow it anymore!
「By the reservoir.」
Shen Baobao, still unaware that a single picture had just sent her dad into an emotional spiral, was observing the day’s catch.
Not one of the more than ten shrimp cages set yesterday was empty. Each one had caught its share of fish, shrimp, and small Loaches. The fishing nets, too, had caught two large silver carp weighing over twenty pounds each, and one Carp weighing over ten pounds.
It was a pity I ca in such a hurry and didn’t live stream it.
Otherwise, I’d totally blow those outdoor foraging live strears out of the water!
After packing the fish and shrimp into net sacks, and stuffing the wild eel, silver carp, and Carp into a woven bag, the group happily returned with a full load.
Back at the restaurant, they put the fish into the water tank.
Dundun promptly ca over, looking ready to hunt. Unfortunately, the fish kept thrashing their tails one after another, turning him into a drenched cat.
Seeing this, Shen Baobao felt it was ti to change her pet’s perception of his stepmom. She pulled out a paper towel and approached, intending to dry Dundun off.
As soon as Dundun saw her coming, he imdiately shook his head vigorously and flicked off the water from his body, then ran off to find Chen ijuan.
The aspiring stepmom, all set to display her maternal affection: "..."
AARGH! You stinky Dundun, don’t you run! Today, I’m going to make you feel the profound love of your stepmom!!!
Dundun took refuge in Chen ijuan’s arms, playing the good baby.
Shen Baobao, looking at the muddy spots Dundun had flicked on her, plaintively called out to Lin Xu, "Xubao, look what your son has done!"
"There’s a washing machine in the apartnt we’re staying in. I’ll help you wash it when we get back," Lin Xu said. "Honestly, you should know better than to get close to wet animals. They always shake themselves dry as soon as you approach."
Fortunately, Dundun was just a cat, and it was only water that splashed out of the fish tank. If it had been an Alaskan Malamute or a Siberian Husky that had just rolled in a mud puddle, his dear Shen Baobao’s composure would likely have shattered even more spectacularly.
It made think of that online joke I saw about an Alaskan Malamute falling into a manure pit.
