"Alright, I won't let you help for nothing. You'll get plenty of food later. I guarantee you'll come in standing up and leave round."
Upon hearing Su An say he was going to cook, Zhou Li jumped three feet high, nudged the sword with his elbow, and patted his chest.
"No problem, no problem at all. I'm a very helpful person, and I guarantee I'll do a great job for you, little boss!"
Su An pushed Fu Zhun into the backyard, only then realizing that it was almost noon.
She glanced at Fu Zhun with some annoyance.
"Oh dear, it's already this late, time to prepare the meal!"
Su An pushed Fu Zhun straight to the small kitchen and quickly took out all the seafood he had bought that day.
These seafood items had a salty and slightly sweet taste, and they didn't smell unpleasant. A whole table was set up with them.
She looked around with bright eyes, picking and choosing, while asking Fu Zhun.
"Prawns, blue crabs, and scallops, Mr. Fu, how about we have crab roe buns, crystal shrimp dumplings, and a seafood congee today?"
The menu looked incredibly tempting. Fu Zhun silently swallowed, but his expression remained impassive as he nodded slightly.
"It sounds soothing and good for the stomach, that's good."
Su An smiled and immediately got to work.
Her movements were fluid and graceful. She first picked up the prawn, pressed her slender fingers against the prawn's head, and then twisted it slightly, immediately twisting the prawn's head and vein off together.
The snow-white, glistening shrimp meat trembled in her palm, looking plump and delicious.
She put the collected shrimp meat into a small bowl, and then took out a small knife about the size of her finger.
Hold the knife handle firmly between your index finger and thumb, and insert the knife into the scallop.
With a gentle flick of the wrist, the scallop opened instantly.
After processing the seafood, Su An boiled water and started cooking.
In less than the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, the seafood congee was bubbling and cooking in the earthenware pot.
The rich, savory aroma filled the entire small kitchen, making one's mouth water.
Watching Su An's busy figure, Fu Zhun suddenly felt a sense of peace that he couldn't explain.
Such days seem not so bad.
