He took the baskets from the two people and pointed at the two piles of things on the ground:
"I'll take this, you guys take the wild vegetables and seasonings on the ground!" After saying that, he lowered his head and looked at the two people who were pouting:
"Don't be like that. When I'm done, I promise you'll come back tomorrow to catch them."
He put the clams in the two people's arms into the basket, then turned around and urged the four people to hurry up as he walked.
The four people, reluctantly, looked at each other with helplessness and doting on their faces, shrugged, picked up the wild vegetables on the ground and the seasonings she had found, and followed her home.
On the way, the four of them opened their mouths several times to ask her questions, but she fooled them every time.
Leading the four people to the entrance of the village, He Wanqing asked Shen An to take Shen Ming home to wash and change clothes, and come back to eat after a while, and then took He Yuan and He Dong back to her parents' home.
At home, after preparing dinner, they saw that the three people had not returned yet. Just as they were about to look for them, Aunt He and Mother He saw the three people coming back with baskets.
As for the two little ones, they were also covered in mud. They followed He Wanqing on both sides, holding their shoes in one hand and wild vegetables in the other.
If you look closely, you can see that the two brothers don't look very good, as if they were forced to do something bad.
Of course, if it was really a bad thing, these two guys would probably do it faster than anyone else, this is what Aunt He thought.
She was very clear about her grandson's temperament. This could be because he was told off or because he lost a fight. There could be no other reason.
"What's going on? I saw these two guys from a distance looking reluctant. Tell me, grandma, did your aunt bully you?
Just tell me what’s going on and I’ll make the decision for you. I promise that your aunt won’t bully you anymore. "Mother He asked the two brothers with a smile.
The two brothers looked at He Wanqing, then sighed but didn't say anything.
The two people's little expressions made He's mother and He's aunt laugh.
The two of them spoke to He Wanqing, then walked up to He Yuan and He Dong and asked them carefully.
After a final round of questioning, they learned that it was caused by catching lobsters. They smiled and shook their heads:
"Don't be depressed. Your aunt will make it later and you'll know if it tastes good or not."
"Yes, if it tastes good, you two can make more tomorrow and then give one or two to your classmates to try. That way, you won't have to explain it to them, they will explain it to you themselves."
Although the two brothers were reluctant, they had no choice but to accept their fate as things had already happened. Now they just hoped that their eldest aunt's cooking would be more delicious so that they would not embarrass themselves.
"Grandma, my brother and I are going home to wash up. You guys go help aunt clean the lobsters!"
When the two brothers came back, they heard that they still had to clean it, and they instantly lost their desire to eat.
Now that they have finally returned home, the two brothers just want to quickly wash up and do their homework so as to spend less time being scolded.
As for eating lobster, the two brothers no longer expect to eat it, but it’s good enough to have river clam meat to eat now.
"I got it. You two should go back and wash up. You can eat after you finish your homework." After the two sisters-in-law said this, they walked towards the well.
Looking at the large pot of lobsters, the two finally understood why the two brothers had that expression.
Thinking of this, the two of them went back to their homes and came back with tools: "Wanqing, go to the backyard and see if there are any vegetables that can be used together. Pick some and we will do it here."
Aunt He Er and Aunt He San, who were a step late, brought stools and sat in her previous seat after He Wanqing left.
Four people divided the work, two were responsible for brushing, two were responsible for cutting off the excess with scissors, and then removing the shrimp thread.
Soon, He Wanqing cleaned the side dishes in the backyard, cut them and put them aside for later use, and transferred some from the space. When she was about to deal with a few clams, the clams and lobsters were all cleaned up.
Looking at the large pot of lobsters, she politely declined the request of He's mother and the others. After driving them out of the kitchen, she took out the rapeseed oil from the space and started to heat the oil in a pan to fry the lobsters.
After doing this twice, he scooped out the oil from the pot, leaving only a little oil at the bottom of the pot. In order to prevent He's mother from discovering the problem, he scooped another spoonful of vegetable oil into the pot. After the oil was heated, he poured in the dried red peppers first.

After all the base ingredients are put into the pan and stir-fried until they have a strong aroma, start adding the fried lobster.
Stir-fry over high heat, then add the chopped potatoes and cucumbers. Pour two bottles of beer processed by the Space Processing Workshop into the pot. Finally, add a bowl of water, cover the pot and start simmering.
He bent down and added a piece of firewood to the stove, clapped his hands, and turned to leave the kitchen.
After taking a bath and finishing their homework, the two brothers refused Grandma He's call for dinner and sat on the kang to play with their younger brothers.
But the more they played, the more anxious they became. It was because the fragrance in the air was so good that it had already captivated them.
After looking at Grandma He and others talking on the kang, the two brothers carefully and quietly got off the kang.
The guilty look of the thieves made Grandma He and the others laugh but didn't scare them at the same time. It was not until the two brothers walked to the door that he asked to go and take a look.
The two brothers who had just been stubborn and thought the lobster cooked by He Wanqing was not delicious were suddenly embarrassed.
The two turned around and were about to ask them not to tell anyone, when they saw Grandma He leading them over there with a smile on her face.
As the destination got closer, the brothers kept sniffing their noses, which made the people who followed them laugh.
It was not until they arrived at the yard that the fragrance filled the whole yard, making the two brothers forget to breathe. Only then did they remember that their friends Shen An and Shen Ming were not there.
In order to eat this delicacy again tomorrow, the two brothers ran outside at the speed of an 800-meter sprint.
It usually takes ten minutes, but today, attracted by the delicious food, the four of them only took less than five minutes.
Chen Ping, who was following behind, asked them to slow down while panting, and then she sped up to catch up. The fragrance was so far away that she could smell it from a long distance.
The five of them didn't even bother to say hello. They just lay down at the kitchen door, two on each side and three on the other side, sniffing hard and praying that the food would be ready soon so that they could eat.
He Wanqing, who didn't know the situation at the door, opened it and saw five heads with big, round eyes. They sniffed from time to time and stared at the kitchen intently.
After seeing her come out, the five of them looked at her with what they thought were the most beautiful smiles, with a hint of flattery in their eyes.
"Okay, stop trying to please me. Just let it sit for a while and you'll be able to eat soon. I'll go wash up first." After saying that, he pushed the five people aside and walked straight towards the bathroom.
When passing by Grandma He and her group, he stopped to chat with them for a few minutes before going to the bathroom to wash up.
Looking at the cold water her mother brought in and the two pots of hot water, she felt warm in her heart and started to dilute the water to take a bath.
