Chapter 154: Yueyue beats Chaochao
That day, when Fu Sinian returned home, he saw Chaochao and Yueyue from afar. The two kids waved at him in unison, looking very happy.
Fu Sinian thought the children really welcomed him warmly, so he quickened his pace.
However, Chaochao and Yueyue jumped up and down, turned around and rushed back into the house, shouting excitedly to Jiang Tang.
"Mom, Dad is back!"
"Mom, we can eat now! Yueyue has been hungry for a long time. She wants to have dinner. She wants to eat lots of delicious food, like crabs!"
Yueyue was really curious about what hairy crabs tasted like. She had been craving them for too long. They looked weird and had even pinched her fingers with their claws. Such a bad thing had to be eaten.
Fu Sinian walked into the house and couldn't help laughing when he heard Chaochao and Yueyue urging Jiang Tang to eat.
It turns out that in the two kids' minds, he is just a tool for making meals.
Jiang Tang smiled at him and reminded him, "Wash your hands first, then eat."
Now, even his wife thinks he is a dirty man who is exposed to the wind and sun outside.
Fu Sinian said, "Okay, I'll go wash my hands now."
Jiang Tang didn't show favoritism and urged the two children, "Chao Chao, Yue Yue, you should wash your hands too. You must use soap. You will be eating crabs soon. Wash them thoroughly and rinse them twice after washing."
"Okay, wife/mom."
The whole family listened to Jiang Tang's words. After they had dinner today, they knew there was a reason why Jiang Tang asked them to wash their hands twice.
Hairy crabs are delicious, but difficult to eat.
Jiang Tang didn't pay attention to table manners, nor did he use any complicated crab-catching tools. It was quite pure and simple - holding it with your hands and biting it with your teeth.
Jiang Tang looked at Fu Sinian and said, "Can you eat crabs?"
Fu Sinian said frankly, "Yes, it is. It's just a bite, and then spit out the crab shell that can't be chewed."
When Jiang Tang heard this, he knew that Fu Sinian would not eat crabs.
But this kind of thing is not important. After all, Fu Sinian is so busy that he doesn't have so much leisure time to eat crabs every day.
Jiang Tang said, "I'll teach you."
She took a hairy crab and did everything in the same way, from opening the lid to removing the butt, gallbladder, and gills. The only things left were crab roe and crab meat, which she picked out from every corner.
The meat of fresh hairy crabs is snow-white and shredded. It is not only tender but also slightly sweet.
The hairy crab not only has a lot of meat on its body, but its ten legs are also full of meat. The two claws were too hard, so Jiang Tang gave up and the other eight legs were plump.
She cut two lines with a pair of scissors, then poked it with the thinnest crab leg, and the whole piece of snow-white crab meat came out.
"Do you understand?"
Jiang Tang looked at Fu Sinian, who nodded, took a crab, and immediately began to peel the crab meat according to Jiang Tang's instructions.
Jiang Tang shared the crab meat she peeled with Chaochao and Yueyue, and also stuffed a crab leg into each of their hands so that they could eat the crab meat and gnaw on it.
Yueyue quickly exclaimed, "Mom! Crabs are so delicious! So delicious!"
Chao Chao's eyes lit up while eating, "The crabs are so delicious!"
Jiang Tang lowered her head and took a few bites of rice. When she raised her hand again, there was a pile of snow-white crab meat in the crab shell in front of her.
Fu Sinian's voice came from the side, "Tangtang, you eat too."
After this meal, Fu Sinian only ate half a crab. He was not very particular about food and had no special preferences. He just wanted to taste it.
He peeled eight crabs by himself and ate them all, including Jiang Tang and his two cubs.
Among them, the plate of steamed hairy crabs with bean paste was particularly delicious. The crab roe that flowed out like steamed egg was mixed with rice for Chaochao and Yueyue. The two kids ate two bowls of rice in one breath. They were still not satisfied. Their little bellies were round and they burped.
“Chuckle—”
“Hey——”
It was very loud. Yueyue fought and Chaochao fought. It seemed that she was really full.
Jiang Tang had no choice but to stop and hold Fu Sinian's hand, "Stop peeling it. I'm not going to eat anymore today."
The plate was almost empty, with only a few scattered crab legs left.
The couple divided the work. Fu Sinian cleaned the table and dishes, while Jiang Tang took Chaochao and Yueyue to wash their hands, mouths, and faces. The two cubs ate like little kittens, and their faces were covered with traces of bean paste.
Because they were too full, Fu Sinian suggested going out for a walk to help digest the food.
They spent too much time eating dinner, and it was dark when they went out. Fortunately, the moon was big and the surroundings were clear.
It’s said to be going out for a walk, but in fact it’s just a stroll in the courtyard, listening to the chirping of summer insects, and looking at the big trees under the night sky.
As Chaochao and Yueyue were walking, they started to play the game of stepping on each other's shadows. It was obviously a simple little game, but the two of them laughed happily. The clear and crisp laughter made people who heard it feel good.
Jiang Tang and Fu Sinian walked behind the two kids unconsciously. Fu Sinian moved closer to Jiang Tang unconsciously, and unconsciously... held Jiang Tang's hand.
Men have high body temperature, and their big hands are always warm, which can wrap Jiang Tang's small hands.
The couple didn't say anything, but just held hands tacitly and strolled slowly under the moonlight. Everything was peaceful and quiet.
That night, not only Jiang Tang's family ate too much, but children from other families also ate too much.
"Day by day - month by month -"
Lei Xiaobing's loud voice came from not far away, accompanied by his submachine gun-like figure, approaching like a flying gun.
Walking behind Lei Xiaobing is Political Commissar Lei.
After approaching, Political Commissar Lei smiled and said to Jiang Tang and Fu Sinian, "Captain Fu, you two should come out for a walk too. The crabs your wife sent you are so delicious. The soldier spent two hours eating a meal and drank five bowls of rice. I really had no choice but to take him out for a walk."
Fu Sinian replied, "We too."
Political Commissar Lei was stunned and his smile became more obvious. He noticed Fu Sinian and Jiang Tang holding hands out of the corner of his eye, but he didn't mention anything.
Jiang Tang felt a little embarrassed and wanted to shake off Fu Sinian's hand, but Fu Sinian refused to let go and she couldn't break free.
Because the three children were already playing together, the two families became one and strolled together slowly. It was a rare occasion that the two men did not talk about things in the army, and all they talked about were things related to the children.
Political Commissar Lei met Chaochao and Yueyue for the first time this afternoon. Looking at the two children's delicate looks, he understood why Lei Xiaobing always called Yueyue taller and Chaochao shorter at home.
Everyone likes such a beautiful child.
As Jiang Tang walked slowly, he kept his eyes on the entrance of the compound, waiting for someone to appear.
