Chapter 395: The delivery has arrived, boyfriend?
The family was busy until 1pm before they had dinner. Zhang's mother picked up a piece of green vegetables for Zhang Wanwan with chopsticks and glanced at her. "You look absent-minded. What are you thinking about? I noticed that you have been acting strangely recently. It was your father before, and he became normal after I scolded him. This morning it was your brother who was acting strange. He was sneaky as if he had done something wrong. Now it's you. I was wondering if something happened to you when you went out to buy ingredients last night?"
It has to be said that Zhang's mother's sixth sense is very accurate. Zhang Wanwan was shocked by what she said, and quickly shook off the messy thoughts in her mind, and laughed dryly: "My brother is probably under too much pressure. He has been so busy recently. He was busy so late last night and hardly slept. I guess he is not sneaking around, but in a trance. You are wrong.
It's even easier for me. My friend is coming today! Just now, they said they would come here for the Mid-Autumn Festival tomorrow and asked me to cook them a delicious meal. Everything else is easy, but it's troublesome to ask for hairy crabs. The most common ones here are hairy crabs and swimming crabs. Even if hairy crabs are sold in the market, I can't tell the real ones from the fake ones. Those guys are all rich young masters, and they can tell the good from the bad ones by eating them. What if they buy fake ones and get embarrassed?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang's mother quickly put down her chopsticks and frowned, saying, "This is indeed difficult. To be honest, your mother has never eaten hairy crabs in all her years!"
As she spoke, Zhang's mother looked at Qin Wenjun who was eating silently beside her.
Qin Wenjun was stunned for a moment, shaking her head like a rattle, "Auntie, let alone me, I have only eaten crabs a few times."
Pu City is close to the sea and has a well-developed water system. There are freshwater hairy crabs and sea crabs, and the price is not expensive, but it is still a luxury for the Qin family. Qin's father and mother usually can't afford to buy meat, let alone seafood. At most, they eat rice fish and some small shrimps raised in their own fields. She grew up in such a family environment, so she has always maintained a frugal lifestyle after entering the society. She will never spend money on food, unless there is a company event, then she will join in the enjoyment.
Mother Zhang looked at Qin Wenjun with pity and said thoughtfully, "Well, tomorrow you go to the end of the village to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with your parents, and bring some crabs with you so that your family can taste them."
"No, Auntie, it's too expensive!" Qin Wenjun quickly refused. She was now living and eating at the Zhang family, so how could she take advantage of them?
Mother Zhang waved her hand and said nonchalantly, "Don't be polite to me. The girl's uncle sells seafood. It's cheaper to buy from him. Whether it's swimming crabs or hairy crabs, he has them all. I'll order a batch directly from him."
Zhang Wanwan quickly said, "Mom, then please ask my uncle if he has any channels to buy authentic hairy crabs. I'll pay for it."
"Yes, yes, yes." Zhang's mother quickly called Li Yongfu.
As a result, before Li Yongfu asked about the hairy crabs, someone sent a large box over.
Qin Wenjun looked at the courier standing outside the door and shouted without thinking: "Boss, there's a package!"
Zhang Wanwan ran out in a daze, looking at the courier in front of her in embarrassment, "I didn't buy the courier! Was it delivered to the wrong place?"
"Yes, are you Miss Zhang Wanwan?" the courier asked politely.
Zhang Wanwan nodded, somewhat confused.
The courier breathed a sigh of relief, his smile widening several times, "That's right, there is a box of hairy crabs specifically for you, please sign for it."
Zhang Wanwan ran out to take a look at the foam box and opened her mouth in shock, "So many!"
"Yes, please check to see if they are all fresh. If there is no problem, please sign." The courier handed the pen to Zhang Wanwan.
Zhang Wanwan took a quick look and found that they were all alive, so she signed her name immediately and called Qin Wenjun to come out for help.
Qin Wenjun was also stunned when he saw the huge box and exclaimed, "So many!"
How much is this worth? She calculated it in her mind, and the conclusion made her a little unacceptable. After thinking about it, she decided not to delve into it.
After moving the things to the kitchen, Zhang Wanwan quickly took several large basins from home, put the hairy crabs in them one by one, poured some water into them, and dripped a few drops of spiritual spring water.
As the spiritual spring water entered, the crabs that had looked a little wilted just now began to show their teeth and claws as if they had been injected with chicken blood. Fortunately, the two big claws were tied up, otherwise she would really have to worry about these "iron armored crabs" crawling out and hurting people.
Zhang's mother took some time to come over and take a look. When she saw the crabs on the ground, her eyes widened instantly, "Girl, why did you buy so many crabs?"
Zhang Wanwan shrugged. "I didn't buy it. I think my friend bought it. He knew it was hard to get here, so he sent it to me."
When Zhang's mother heard this, she looked at Zhang Wanwan with a strange look in her eyes, "Tell me the truth, are you dating Xiaotian again?"
Zhang Wanwan was so shocked by her mother's words that she choked on her own saliva several times. She coughed violently several times before she recovered. "Mom, what nonsense are you talking about!"
"What do you mean I'm talking nonsense? Look, you've been working with that Xiao Tian, and I haven't seen you do anything, but he's given you so much dividends in a year. He even came to see you during the Chinese New Year, and he came again today. If he's not interested in you, what could he be?" The more Zhang's mother thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case. "In fact, I think that Xiao Tian is pretty good. Not only is he handsome, but he's also young and promising, and his family seems to be well off. If you two are together, I won't object."
The corners of Zhang Wanwan's mouth twitched fiercely, and she looked at Zhang's mother depressedly, thinking, of course you won't object, you can't wait to pack me up and give me away right now!
Zhang's mother was still muttering about how men should get married when they are old enough and women should get married when they are old enough. Zhang Wanwan couldn't stand it anymore and quickly pushed her out.
With these crabs, their family no longer needs to buy crabs. Zhang's mother immediately told Li Yongfu about the situation here and ordered other seafood from him in large quantities, which would still allow Li Yongfu to make a profit.
The next day, Qin Wenjun got up at dawn to work. Today's order volume had decreased, so they didn't have to be so busy. It's just that her biological clock was there, and she had gotten used to it. Seeing that Zhang Wanwan hadn't gotten up yet, she simply opened the bakery first, did the preparatory work, and then went to the kitchen. As soon as she entered, she screamed in fright.
Zhang Baiyan rushed over after hearing the noise, and seeing Qin Wenjun's horrified face, he asked worriedly, "What happened?"
Qin Wenjun pointed to the kitchen and said, "Crabs. Crabs are all running out!"
When Zhang Baiyan went in and took a look, his scalp went numb immediately. Fortunately, he was not afraid of these things. He immediately took a basin and caught them one by one. Qin Wenjun found a few crabs that had escaped the net in the yard. The two of them were busy for a while before they found all the crabs.
