Brother Liao laughed heartily at his daughter's words, and then he invited everyone to pick up their chopsticks.
"Come on, everyone, eat. Jianjun bought these specially. They are all fresh. I am also lucky enough to have them today. Such a big abalone is not easy to come by. Your sister-in-law is not good at cooking seafood, let alone other things. Try them."
Xu Manman often ate seafood here when she was a child, but there are not many types that she really likes, so the types she keeps in the space are not many. The dishes on the table today are basically her favorites, which shows that her second cousin has put a lot of effort into it.
Sister Cuifang’s skill in cooking seafood is really good. She handles clams and other seafood very cleanly, without any mud or sand in the taste. The seasoning is just right and the cooking time is just right. It is a very homely and authentic method.
Her eldest cousin Xu Jianbing first scooped a bowl of fish soup for her. Knowing that she didn't like sea fish, he only added some tofu to the bowl.
The eldest cousin sitting on her right put a small dish of dipping sauce in front of her, and the second cousin sitting on her left kept peeling shrimps for her. Before she finished her bowl of fish soup, there was a pile of shrimp meat in the dish in front of her.
Xu Manman swallowed and whispered to her second cousin, "Brother, that's enough. I can't finish any more."
Xu Jianjun hummed, peeled the mantis shrimp in his hand, put the shrimp meat into his sister's plate, wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and then started eating his own.
Boys are much rougher when eating shrimps, and those who are used to it have developed the skills to do so. They just stuff the shrimps into their mouths, and after a while, only the shells are left.
The two brothers took very good care of Xu Manman. She didn't have to pick up the food herself the whole time. As long as the plate in front of her was empty, it would be refilled immediately.
When it comes to taking care of their younger sister, they are more comprehensive than Chen Ming, as they were both trained by their aunt since childhood.
While eating, Xu Jianguo also paid attention to the movements here, secretly learning from his elder and second brothers, who were role models for our generation.
Knowing that they had to get up early to catch the boat tomorrow, we didn't eat too long. However, we still helped Brother Liao's family clean up the yard before leaving.
While they were working, Xu Manman was playing twirling rope with Pingping in the main room.
When we returned to the guesthouse, it was my eldest cousin who drove the car, and Xu Manman still sat in the passenger seat. The brothers in the back kept chattering. They hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they had a lot to share.
The guesthouse is not far from the port. Standing in the yard, you can see the sea not far away, but it is night time and all you can see is darkness.
Four rooms were booked, Xu Manman had one, and the rest of the brothers were free to choose their own rooms. The environment of the guesthouse here was not as good as that in Ning City. The room was just a simple single room, and the bathroom and toilet were shared.
Although Xu Manman took a shower in the morning, in the hot and humid south, taking a shower twice a day is not excessive at all.
She quickly showered in the dim bathroom and went to the washroom to wash her clothes. The whole time, her cousin was guarding the door for her. He waited until she entered the room and made sure she locked the door before leaving.
Xu Manman turned off the lights and took out the life-size doll as usual, then slipped into the space.
After taking another thorough bath, she held the hangover tea made by Doctor Jin and lay on the rocking chair on the terrace at the top of the tree house. She had been rushing in to take a bath these days, and it was rare for her to be able to relax like this tonight. This feeling was really a long-lost comfort.
She came in at 10 o'clock and made an appointment with her cousin to get up at 6 o'clock, so that she could stay in the space for more than 4 days.
I woke up after a full sleep of more than 10 hours. For breakfast, I had cross-bridge rice noodles with Xiao Jin, who had changed to an all-round skin. After breakfast, I caught up with Teacher Jin on the study progress that had been missed during this period.
Although she has been studying with her brothers and sisters these days, she has indeed been slacking off in her professional courses. Facing the teacher Jin Youyou's eyes, Xu Manman couldn't help but feel a little numb.
After being tortured by Teacher Jin for the whole morning, I had no appetite at lunch when I saw Tongzi, who had changed into the butler's skin.
Probably sensing the host's emotions, for the next three days, after the morning classes, Tongzi would immediately switch to the skin of Stylist Jin or Musician Jin.
It’s nothing special, it’s just that these two physical images have a sweet-talking buff that can help the host restore his good mood as quickly as possible.
"Manman, are you up?"
At six o'clock in the morning, my cousin Xu Jianbing came and knocked on the door on time.
Xu Manman, neatly dressed, came over and opened the door. "I'm up, brother. Shall we set off now?" Xu Manman, who had a good sleep in the space, was full of energy at this moment.
