Xu Xiaoyun and Wang Xiaowu also ran back to their homes and took out their own pliers to help Tao Wenwen cut the snail tails. They were skilled and quick, and it was obvious that they did this often.
Tao Wenwen immediately swallowed back the words that she had said, "Forget it, I won't eat it." Forget it, once something is said, it can be taken back. Of course, she couldn't lose face in front of her two little disciples, right?
"Just cut it, and expect some delicious food in the evening!" Tao Wenwen looked like he was determined to do his best.
After watching Xu Xiaoyun and Wang Xiaowu's movements for a while, he learned them and immediately joined the battle of cutting snail tails.
At the beginning, he was slower than the two kids, but after a while he became proficient and his speed surpassed them.
The three of them placed a smaller bucket at their feet. Seeing that Tao Wenwen was getting faster and faster, they also sped up even faster. The three half-grown people started to play a snail tail cutting competition while cutting.
The men were responsible for cleaning the fish's internal organs, and the whole yard was full of joy.
By the time Wang Xiaomin had finished stewing the fish soup, Tao Wenwen had finally finished cutting all the snail tails thanks to the competition and concerted efforts of the three of them.
Wang Xiaomin even came out to act as a referee for them. Tao Wenwen had cut half as many snails in his bucket as they had.
Wang Xiaomin also praised Tao Wenwen generously. Of course, Wang Xiaowu and Xu Xiaoyun were younger than Tao Wenwen, so praise was also necessary.
Tao Wenwen:...
She is not a child anymore, so why does this praise seem like it is for rewarding a child?
Xu Xiaoyun and Wang Xiaowu were both smiling brightly and were very happy. When they learned that it was Tao Wenwen's first time to cut the snail tails and she was able to do it so quickly and well, they actually praised Tao Wenwen in return, saying that she was so good.
Tao Wenwen:...
Wang Xiaomin divided the cut snails into four equal parts, letting Xu Xiaoyun and Wang Xiaowu take one each, and gave the other to Zhang Kongming.
Today, with the help of Gao Yue and Shu Wangchai, we caught a lot of fish.
Wang Xiaomin also packed a fish for each of them and took it back. Then she took the snails left at home, washed them, started a high fire, and stir-fried them with two dried chilies.
This was the first time that Tao Wenwen ate this thing, but it was not the original owner's first time. She did not dare to ask everyone how to eat it. After they all got the hang of it and started slurping the snails loudly, she started to eat it like the master.
The peppers were slightly spicy, just the right amount to enhance the flavor, and they were stir-fried over high heat. Wang Xiaomin washed them very clean so there wasn't any sand or dirt left in them, and everyone enjoyed the meal happily.
Tao Wenwen was eating just as fast as them, each one faster than the other. It didn't seem like she ate much, she just drank the fish soup, ate fish and snails.
He ate half a bowl of rice and put it down, then burped, took a small fan, hooked a chair with his feet and went to the yard to enjoy the cool air. He was already living the life of a farmer in the countryside to the fullest and most innocent degree.
Wang Xiaomin shouted from inside the house, "Why are you leaving food behind again, kid? This is a bad habit, and it's even worse if you become more and more picky about food."
"How can you blame me for this? It's because Mom, Uncle Shi, and my brothers cooked such delicious meals that I forgot about the rice because I was so busy with the vegetables." Tao Wenwen said with embarrassment, holding her chin in her hand: "Next time, Mom, remember to cook the dishes a little less tasty so that I won't just eat the rice instead of the vegetables."
Is this to say that the food she cooks is delicious?
Wang Xiaomin didn't know what to say to Tao Wenwen. This child's shamelessness was changing day by day along with her temperament. She was becoming more and more shameless and even her eloquence was getting better!
Gao Yue finished his own meal and put Tao Wenwen's rice into his own bowl, saying on Tao Wenwen's behalf, "It's okay, Auntie Min. I'm eating it now."
