Chapter 454: Chapter 311 The Best thod_2
“Eating with good sisters.”
Then, the group chat gradually evolved into showing off their lunches.
Zhang Chi, who moved cent, stared at his 5 yuan a portion construction site lunch box and fell into thought.
…
Before eating,
Xue Yuantong handed everyone a pair of disposable gloves.
You need to peel the shrimp when eating them, and it’s inevitable to get oily hands, so wearing disposable gloves can avoid that.
Xue Chuchu was just about to put on the gloves when she saw Tongtong hand her another pair of white gloves.
The white gloves were a bit like the ones workers wear, but thinner.
Xue Chuchu, naive and inexperienced, curiously asked,
“What’s the use of these white gloves?”
Geng Lu guessed, “You wear the plastic gloves first, and then the white gloves for extra protection. Right, Jiang Ning?”
Jiang Ning said, “No.”
“Ah?” Geng Lu, from a small town, was puzzled.
Xue Yuantong’s face was smug, “Humph, I saw it on TV. If you only wear plastic gloves, it’s very stuffy and uncomfortable.”
“If you wear white gloves first and then plastic gloves on the outside, it’s much more comfortable.”
Xue Chuchu followed her instructions, putting on the white gloves. Looking at the shrimp on the plate and then at the gloves, she held back a comnt,
“This is really upscale.”
Geng Lu, similarly amused, said, “It’s like attending a high-end banquet.”
After they put on their gloves, Xue Yuantong fished out a shrimp with chopsticks.
Xue Chuchu asked, “Tongtong, aren’t you wearing them?”
Xue Yuantong humd, “I don’t like wearing them. I like to suck the juice.”
Xue Chuchu felt the sa, “Indeed, wearing gloves really affects sucking on your fingers.”
She was enticed by the thick sauce in the braised crawfish plate. If it was just her and Tongtong, she definitely wouldn’t wear gloves.
Unfortunately, with Jiang Ning and the others around, Xue Chuchu was too embarrassed to do that.
She cared much about sha; in front of others, Xue Chuchu always remained composed and ladylike.
Geng Lu peeled a piece of tender white shrimp at, and her first thought was to feed it to Jiang Ning, but considering others were present, she held back the impulse.
That would be too obvious to give the first piece to Jiang Ning!
She wasn’t worried about Xue Yuantong, but about that girl called Xue Chuchu. The latter was sharp and perceptive, and if Geng Lu acted too eagerly, Chuchu might suspect sothing.
With such thoughts, Geng Lu intended to eat the shrimp at herself.
However, an idea suddenly struck her. She placed the shrimp at in Jiang Ning’s bowl and said with a smile,
“Jiang Ning, thank you for taking to the riverbank to catch shrimp today. Let express my gratitude with the first piece of shrimp at!”
Sure enough, this cleared any suspicion.
Jiang Ning took a taste of the spices, “Then I won’t be polite.”
Geng Lu watched him eat the shrimp, feeling exceptionally satisfied. The first piece he ate today had been peeled by her hands.
This sense of accomplishnt lingered, like flowers blooming in a field.
Outside, the sun grew stronger.
A gentle breeze blew through the main room near the door, gently brushing against their cheeks and lifting the girls’ hair.
Xue Chuchu silently ate the shrimp, the lon, the pancake, and drank Sprite.
This table of dishes could be considered lavish. Xue Chuchu knew these dishes were definitely not cheap. The shrimp alone were quite valuable. If in a restaurant, two to three hundred yuan might not even be enough.
Although her mother had found a good job, their family had accumulated debts to relatives over the years, and her mother’s salary was significantly lower than Aunt Gu’s.
So their material conditions weren’t great, and every ti she ca to Tongtong’s house, it was the most luxurious al she had in a while.
While eating, Geng Lu sent a photo of the al to her mother, telling her that her daughter was living a good life and not to worry.
At the sa ti, there was a sense of wanting to show off to her mother, especially since her mother had t Jiang Ning that morning. She wanted to show that Jiang Ning hadn’t mistreated her.
Then, Geng Lu sent another photo to the class group chat.
It was lunchti, and Guo Kunnan said, “That’s really lavish, two big bowls of shrimp. Makes want to dig out so shrimp this afternoon.”
Dong Qingfeng comnted, “Crawfish are fine, but they’re such a hassle to peel.”
Lu Qiqi said, “The whole point is the joy of peeling them to eat. If I didn’t have to peel them, I wouldn’t want to eat them at all!”
Dan Kaiquan said, “Crawfish are easy to peel. I’m pretty quick at peeling shrimp.”
Cui Yu exclaid, “Brother Quan, Brother Quan, I eat fast!”
Dan Kaiquan replied, “Get lost.”
Chen Siyu: “How does everyone peel shrimp?”
As soon as one of the twins spoke up, Dong Qingfeng eagerly chid in. Usually, he was too far away in class to showcase his special technique, but in the group chat, everyone was as close as if they were next-door neighbors.
“I start by twisting off the shrimp head and then begin from the tail, pulling out the vein.”
He was about to continue typing to explain the rest of the process when Dan Kaiquan couldn’t stand it anymore and jumped in to question:
“Hang on, the crawfish you eat, don’t you remove the vein before cooking?”
Dong Qingfeng froze, then admitted, “I mostly don’t bother, I’ve heard that if you remove the vein before cooking, the at falls apart, affecting the taste.”
Dan Kaiquan countered, “Who says that? Those restaurant owners are just lazy!”
Dong Qingfeng: “The places I’ve eaten at mostly don’t do it, probably because of the taste issue.”
Dan Kaiquan invoked the scientific thod: “Don’t you know how many bacteria are in the vein?”
What started as a simple question from Chen Siyu about peeling shrimp ended up in a debate about shrimp veins between Dan Kaiquan and Dong Qingfeng in the group chat.
Both presented their views, trying to lay out the facts and reason.
As the debate got more intense, they stopped being reasonable and started picking on each other’s phrasing.
The class group chat page was filled with bubbles of ssages from the two of them.
The classmates watched the battle with delight.
Until Bai Yuxia couldn’t stand it anymore and said, “Let’s talk about how to peel shrimp.”
Dan Kaiquan replied instantly, “Okay.”
Dong Qingfeng continued, “When you get to the tail, peel it clean, segnt by segnt. That way, you’ll have the shrimp at.”
In the end, he added, “Shrimp are easy to peel, crabs are really difficult. But I know how to peel all of them, I just don’t want to bother now. I’ll demonstrate for you all another ti.”
Bai Yuxia said, “Hm, that’s pretty much how I peel shrimp too.”
The group went quiet for five minutes until Dan Kaiquan finally spoke up again:
“1. First, use two fingers…
2. Then, twist the tail…
3. The most crucial step, grab…
4. That’s basically success…”
Dan Kaiquan’s four ssages once again filled the entire chat interface.
The classmates were surprised by Dan Kaiquan’s seriousness.
Wang Longlong: “Brother Quan really wants to teach us how to peel shrimp!”
Huang Yuzhu comnted, “That sounds professional, and it’s the easiest way. It peels the shrimp clean without waste.”
Chen Siyu: “Wow, that’s very detailed.”
Bai Yuxia: “You’re pretty good.”
Dan Kaiquan: “(Bared teeth) (Bared teeth) This is the easiest way I know to peel shrimp.”
His vanity was greatly satisfied, and he even won the praise of his beloved girl. There’s no greater joy in the world than this.
“From now on, brothers, follow my thod and you’re guaranteed to enjoy it!”
Dan Kaiquan was over the moon.
Jiang Ning was eating shrimp and took out his phone to check the ssages. After reading that, he couldn’t help but smile.
He raised his phone to take a photo of the dining table, and just then, Geng Lu’s hand reaching for shrimp at and Xue Chuchu’s hand, also wearing a white glove and holding a tender piece of shrimp, both extended into Jiang Ning’s bowl.
The cara captured this perfect mont.
With a rare smile, Xue Chuchu said, “Jiang Ning, thanks for treating and Tongtong to food.”
She peeled several pieces for Tongtong and couldn’t just ignore Jiang Ning. After all, she was really grateful to Jiang Ning; he was a kind person, too…
Mm, his lons were super delicious.
Jiang Ning admired the photo for a mont and then posted in the group: “I know the simplest way to peel shrimp.”
Then he sent out the picture:
“Find a girl willing to peel shrimp for you.”
Dan Kaiquan, upon seeing the two hands in the photo, first froze, and then felt an imnse surge of jealousy. He almost ground his molars to bits!
Ma Shicheng ssaged: “Correct.”
Wang Longlong: “I second that.”
Cui Yu: “Brother Ning has it right.”
Below, a bunch of classmates chid in, creating quite a lively scene.
Jiang Ning kept a composed expression, when suddenly his phone vibrated. A ssage from Shen Qing’e ca in:
“Tomorrow at my sister’s place, we’re hearing that other relatives are coming over, too. Get ready.”
