Xu Milu stopped eating after eating four crabs. Fresh Dongting crabs, steamed, bring out their natural freshness, as if any other seasoning would be superfluous.
Then look at Mo Xuan eating crab. He ate it with such gusto, swallowing a crab the size of a man's fist whole, crunching and chewing haphazardly, eating everything without a care for the crab's stomach, heart, or shell.
"I'm too impatient to peel it out carefully. In the past, when I was in Dongting Lake, I would roast the whole crab over a fire, peel off the crab claw meat and crab roe, put the yellow roe and white fat back into the crab shell, pour on a thick sauce, cover it with a layer of batter, and make crab dumplings for me to eat. Eating it like this now is really tasteless."
As he spoke, there was a hint of regret in his voice.
Xu Milu: "..."
Crab legs are so thin, how come they didn't prick you to death?

Xu Milu simply steamed all three buckets of crabs, took them out in a large basket, peeled them one by one to extract the meat and roe, and put them separately into glass jars.
Mo Xuan wanted to run away as soon as he saw the work, but Xu Milu dragged him back by the collar.
"Can't you see Xiao Zi is working? You still want to run away? Don't you want your money this month, or do you not want your midnight snack tonight?"
Xu Milu placed the bamboo tweezers in front of Mo Xuan and patted his shoulder "kindly":
"Keep peeling! The deliciousness of this late-night snack depends on how fast you peel the crab meat. I believe in you."
Mo Xuan was furious, his face contorted with rage.
"Damn it! Ugh, I'm so angry! Why don't you have to peel the crab?"
Xu Milu shrugged, her expression completely open:
"Maybe it's because I'm the manager and you're the waiter."
Mo Xuan suddenly fell silent, like a deflated balloon, huddled on the stool, resignedly peeling the crab meat.
