Chapter 85: Stinky Durian
After the dishes were placed, the little guy looked at the crabs curiously but didn't dare to touch them.
Lu Yuxiu knew that Lin Xia was a good cook, but he didn’t know that she was also so good at cooking seafood.
Lin Xia took a look and thought it was okay. She didn't think she was great. It was just that it was inconvenient to cook with the stove. If there was gas or something, it would probably be faster.
"Stop looking and start eating!" Lin Xia said when she saw them just staring without doing anything.
A large pot of spicy fried clams looks like a lot, but in fact the shells take up more space. The same goes for the mantis shrimps. Lin Xia specially cut off all the bones before cooking. The turbot only has onions, ginger, garlic and soy sauce, and then there is crab roe and meat. There is really no vegetarian food on the table.
Today’s feast is so abundant that we can consider it as a celebration.
Lin Xia got some fish for the little guy. The fish meat was tender and had no bones, making it very suitable for children to eat.
"Mom, I want to eat this." An An pointed at the red crab, his eyes full of curiosity as to why it turned red.
Lu Yuxiu saw three crabs and knew that there was one for each person.
He picked up the crab, broke open the shell, removed the inedible parts, cut it into two halves and put them into An An's bowl, then opened another one and put it into Lin Xia's bowl, and finally his own.
Lin Xia picked up the crab and took a look. No wonder it was called roe crab, it was full of red roe. She put it in her mouth and took a bite. The red roe mixed with the sweetness of the crab meat was simply amazing.
Lu Yuxiu had eaten a lot when he was in the army, so he was very skilled at it and finished it in no time.
Lin Xia watched the little girl holding half a crab and gnawing on it, and she didn't intend to go forward to help her. If she learned to gnawing from a young age, she would be able to eat it in the future.
"An An, Dad has finished eating, but still wants to eat crabs. What should we do?" Lin Xia asked.
Lu Yuxiu was confused when he heard this. He didn’t say he wanted to eat?
Crabs are cold in nature. The little guy has never eaten them before, and I don’t know if his stomach can handle it, so it’s better to eat less.
The little guy looked at his father's bowl and the pile of shells in the big basin next to him. He handed the crabs in his bowl to his father without hesitation and said in a baby voice, "Dad, eat slowly."
"Eat it slowly like me." The little guy carefully took a bite of the crab to demonstrate.
Lu Yuxiu was amused by her serious words.
Lin Xia then said to Lu Yuxiu: "You eat it, this thing is cold, don't let her eat so much."
Hearing this, Lu Yuxiu no longer planned to return it to An An.
"Is there a kindergarten here? Are there any requirements for admission?" Lin Xia remembered and asked.
"Yes, school doesn't start until September, I'll get the information then." Lu Yuxiu looked at An An who was fighting with the crab.
The little guy has no idea that he will be going to school in the second half of the year and is trying to figure out how to eat the meat.
Seeing that she was having a hard time eating and that the rice would get cold if she was any slower, Lin Xia reached out to take it, picked out the meat, and was about to give it to her.
"I'll do it." Seeing that she was too busy eating, Lu Yuxiu reached out to take it.
Lin Xia handed it to him after hearing that.
Lu Yuxiu took it, made it out in a snap, and started to peel the shrimps.
After filling both of their bowls, the man continued eating.
Lin Xia enjoyed Lu Yuxiu's care with a sweet feeling in her heart, and felt that she had made the right choice.
This meal made everyone happy.
With Lu Yuxiu around, there was no need to worry about cooking too much food. However, Lin Xia was always worried that he might not have eaten enough.
After eating, Lu Yuxiu automatically went to wash the dishes, while Lin Xia and An An sat in the corridor to enjoy the breeze.
When Lu Yuxiu came out, he saw Lin Xia holding something in her hand that gave off a foul smell, and he couldn't help but stand there in a daze.
"Come quickly." Lin Xia saw him standing there in a daze and called him.
"What is this?" When I walked closer, I saw that it was covered with thorns, and it was obvious that it was emitting that strong smell.
"Haven't you eaten it before?" Lin Xia asked curiously. He had never seen it in such a long time here.
"Durian?" Lu Yuxiu thought about it and realized that he had heard of such a thing before.
"Yes, this is delicious, would you like to try it?" Lin Xia scooped up a piece with a spoon and handed it to him.
Lu Yuxiu tensed his body and stopped himself from stepping back.
Seeing him retreat, Lin Xia turned around and looked at An An, who was standing two meters away, pinching her nose.
"An An, do you want to try it?" Lin Xia was like a witch, tempting people to try her dark cuisine.
The little guy was obviously moved, but he didn't dare to go forward after smelling the scent.
Seeing that both of them were somewhat resistant, Lin Xia looked at Lu Yuxiu and decided to use him as a breakthrough point.
"Just try it! Just one bite!" The voice was soft, with a request in the tone.
Lin Xia's eyes were bright with a hint of cunning, but her tone was clearly coquettish, which made Lu Yuxiu unable to bear to refuse.
"It's really delicious. You can try it. If you don't like it, forget it." Lin Xia strongly recommended it.
Lu Yuxiu pinched the bridge of his nose, took a deep breath and held it, then closed his eyes and ate it. It was soft and sweet in the mouth, not smelly.
After he could no longer smell the odor, he realized that it was indeed okay, and when he relaxed his breath, he felt much better, not as shocked as when he first smelled it.
"Not bad, huh?"
"Um"
Seeing that he didn't look disgusted, Lin Xia knew that he didn't hate it, so she picked up a petal and handed it to him with the shell and the meat.
Seeing that the little girl was still unwilling to come over, Lin Xia didn't call her.
He scooped up a spoonful of it, put it in his mouth, and exclaimed: "It's so delicious!"
She looked so enjoying herself that Lu Yuxiu wanted to laugh. He wondered if the girl's acting was a little too exaggerated.
From a distance, An An watched as her parents ate and seemed to enjoy the food very much. There was a conflicted look on her face and it was obvious that she was struggling inside.
"An An, do you want to try it?" Lin Xia looked at An An who was standing aside and didn't come over, and said gently.
This sentence seemed to give her motivation, and the little girl pinched her nose and tried to get closer.
Lin Xia scooped a spoonful and was about to feed her.
"Lao Lu, what are you doing at home?"
A voice interrupted Lin Xia's actions.
Guess what is being picked in the picture!
