But the atmosphere over there was so harmonious that even his second uncle and Chen's mother couldn't really get a word in edgewise, let alone the others.
Chen Ruijun's eyes darted around, and he saw the dishes that had been served.
"Jiang Tiecheng, stop talking to the old man and bring out so many dishes."
"Sir, these are rare crabs. Let Comrade Jiang Tiecheng peel them for you."
"It's the season for crabs right now, they're at their fattest and most delicious, sir, you must have a taste."
After saying this, he turned to the waiter next to him and said...
"Waiter, please bring us our crab-eating tools quickly."
Crabs are not commonly seen in their Northwest region, and the eight-piece crab-making tool set is even less likely to be found.
But since today's purpose was to give Jiang Tiecheng a hard time, they specifically sought out Huixianlou.
It's because the owner of Huixianlou is from the south that he actually has this item.
This thing is just for showing off.
Sure enough, the waiter had already received the news and the crab-eating tools were prepared in advance.
Holding a tray, Chen Ruixue placed the eight pieces of the disassembled parts in front of Jiang Tiecheng, and her face darkened.
I don't even use this when I eat crabs.
Although she knew roughly how to use it, anyone's hands would become rusty if they didn't use it for a long time.
Fourth Brother was clearly trying to intimidate Jiang Tiecheng.
They really haven't given up their wicked intentions.
Just as Chen Ruixue was about to speak, Jiang Tiecheng grabbed her wrist from under the table and gently shook his head.
If it were just the Chen family members present, it wouldn't matter what Chen Ruixue said.
Sometimes, even family members lose face in this private room.
But now that Gu Tinghui and Old Master Gu are involved, the situation is naturally different.
He would consider Chen Ruixue's feelings, and even more so Chen's mother's. He would never want to have a tense relationship with his mother-in-law.
In particular, his mother-in-law's attitude towards him has clearly softened considerably.
This is an opportunity to show off and slap someone in the face, but without embarrassing your mother-in-law.
He's not some greenhorn.
Having gained experience from his previous life, he will be able to assess the situation and act accordingly.
"Old Master Chen is right, these crabs are at their best right now. They're especially plump and meaty, and the flesh is also particularly thick."
Let me peel the crab for you.
Jiang Tiecheng said calmly,
The old man sitting next to him stared wide-eyed at the sight of these eight items.
"Oh my, I've never seen this thing before. What's it used for? It's both scissors and a hammer."
"All I ever do in my life is pick up a crab and gnaw on it, right? Why would I need this thing? Besides, what's there to gnaw on a crab anyway?"
It's dry and brittle, all skin.
Gu Tinghui was amused.
"Grandpa, no wonder my grandma said that you can't say anything nice, and whatever you eat is like Pigsy eating ginseng fruit, you can't taste anything."
Only someone like him, the grandson, would dare to make such a joke to your face. Try it on someone else.
"This thing is called crab eight-piece set. I've seen it before, but to be honest, I also think it's a bit too literary."
With Gu Tinghui and Old Master Gu's interruptions, even if Jiang Tiecheng didn't know how to use it, no one would think Jiang Tiecheng was embarrassing.
Jiang Tiecheng knew in his heart that Gu Tinghui was doing it on purpose.
Their own regimental commander is absolutely fiercely protective of his own.
"Yes, yes, the old man is right. This thing is too fancy. It's not as convenient as just eating a crab. In fact, none of us know how to use this thing."
Director Chen hurriedly spoke up to ease the tension, as he hadn't expected his own family to arrange such a scene.
Anyone who isn't blind can see the trickery involved.
They really brought shame to the Chen family.
Jiang Tiecheng said with a smile,
"Grandpa, this crab-eating set is indeed for scholars and literati. However, if this crab-eating set is used properly, the movements are smooth and beautiful."
It looks just like the beautiful dances of young women in cultural troupes.
"Sir, I think I know a little bit. How about I show you?"
Grandpa Gu's eyes showed a hint of surprise. He was a rough and uncultured man, but that didn't mean he didn't know what was going on.
He did it on purpose, but he didn't expect the kid to refuse his offer.
"Alright, alright lad, then you'll let this old man see what you've got."
Jiang Tiecheng placed the jade-like plate in front of him.
I asked the waiter for another pair of gloves. There were no disposable gloves available at the moment, but the thin cotton gloves were brand new.
Moreover, it undergoes high-temperature sterilization to meet food-grade standards.
Jiang Tiecheng introduced the crabs to everyone while starting to dismantle them.
Jiang Tiecheng's elegant baritone voice brings a steady and smooth enjoyment to the listener.
Her hand movements were absolutely flawless. From taking apart the crab shell to removing the complete shell, she arranged the crab meat extracted from the shell into the shape of a crab.
It took less than five minutes to dismantle a crab.
After Jiang Tiecheng finished dissecting the crab, he placed it in front of the old man.
"Old man, please give it a try."
"Young man, I'll make a fool of myself."
The old man laughed heartily.
"That's great, that's great. I've spent my whole life eating crabs."
I've never eaten crab like this before; someone actually managed to extract the crab meat completely for me.
It's truly unbelievable how clean and convenient it was to dismantle.
No wonder your grandma used to always say I was like Pigsy eating ginseng fruit.
The old man put the crab roe in his mouth and nodded.
"Kid, this is really good."
"Your hands, which are good at defusing landmines, are also amazing at dismantling crabs. I really can't imagine what else you can dismantle."
"Grandpa, is there anything else you need to demolish? Just come find me."
Jiang Tiecheng didn't take off his gloves while speaking; instead, he quickly disassembled four more crabs.
His speed left the waiters speechless; they had never seen their boss dismantle crabs so skillfully.
While others dismantle crabs, this person doesn't seem to be dismantling crabs at all; it's more like creating a work of art.
Jiang Tiecheng gave one portion of the dismantled crabs to Director Chen and Chen's mother, and the other two portions to Chen Ruiguo and Chen Ruixue.
Bai Weiye and Chen Ruijun were completely ignored again.
Chen Ruixue's eyes lit up as she looked at the crab, realizing for the first time that Jiang Tiecheng was so capable.
Those hands that defuse bombs can not only defuse bombs and landmines, but now they can also defuse crabs.
The man in his heart was even more towering and majestic, and at the same time, irresistibly adorable.
This man possesses not only the courage and boldness of a tough guy, but also the gentleness and thoughtfulness to care for others.
He is simply the perfect husband in every woman's eyes.
Seeing how well Jiang Tiecheng took care of them, Chen's mother felt a warmth in her heart.
To be precise, her impression of Jiang Tiecheng went from being very good at the beginning to suddenly deteriorating, but that deterioration was easily resolved by Jiang Tiecheng.
Now, with Gu Lao's added influence, he actually admires Jiang Tiecheng quite a bit.
Actually, Jiang Tiecheng and his daughter seem to be a good match.
There is no inequality.
