Girlfriend's Fortune

Chapter 644 Chapter 640 Three: After the Festival
It was a festival at Song's house in the evening.

Since there is no need for Song Qiu to cook herself, she only intends to make crabs, and crabs should be eaten while they are hot, so Song Qiu will go to the kitchen when the dishes are almost done and dinner can be served at any time.

Li Yang, Lihua and A Ling all followed to join in the fun, to see how the hairy crabs are cooked and eaten.

The best way to treat hairy crabs is to steam them.

Such a big basket, Song Qiu roughly counted, enough for each of them to eat three.

She also allocated two to each of Du Chuanfu, Mrs. Zou, and Nanny Song.

No matter how much, of course there is no more.

The one delivered yesterday was placed in a wooden basin, and the dirt was removed enough, so I used a small brush to clean the crab body, crab claws and legs, and did not untie the tied rope when brushing. .

Li Yang and the others all started to help, and they were all cleaned up quickly.

Put ginger slices on the bottom of the plate, then put the cleaned crab belly up into the steaming tray.

Put cold water on the steamer and steam on high heat.

The crabs were steaming in the pot, and Song Qiu started to prepare the dipping sauce.

Peel off the skin of the ginger, first cut it into slices, then shred it, and finally cut it into minced ginger. Put the minced ginger into a small bowl, add a spoonful of vinegar and a teaspoon of sugar, and mix thoroughly to make ginger vinegar juice .

You don’t need to steam it for too long. After steaming until the hairy crab shells are red, you can anneal the heat and let it simmer in the pot. After simmering for a quarter of an hour, take it out, remove the tied rope, and put it on a plate.

Dozens of large crabs were divided into several large plates, and the three were left for Nanny Song, and all the rest were served on the table.

At this moment, the other dishes had already been prepared and served on the table. There were a lot of people, and they ate in the side hall of the second entrance hall.

Everyone is seated, just waiting for Song Qiu and the crab to come.

Crabs should be eaten while they are hot, and the crabs should be eaten first when serving the table.

The old Yuan and others had never eaten such a big crab before. The crab they ate was the small crab fried by Song Qiu last year.

With such a big crab, each person shared one on the small plate in front of him, and he didn't know how to eat it.

Song Qiu stood up and showed everyone how to eat one.

First take a big crab, work hard from the bottom, lift the crab shell, and then go to the crab navel. There are crab stomach, crab intestines, crab heart, and crab gills in the crab navel. These are cold and dirty and cannot be eaten, so they must be taken out throw away.

Then eat crab roe and crab paste, scoop the crab roe and crab paste with a spoon, and eat with ginger vinegar.

Then eat the crab body, break the crab body apart with both hands, there is crab roe and crab paste on the cross section of the crab body, and meat at the root of the crab leg.

There are also crab legs. Crab legs mainly eat thighs. There is more meat on the thighs. Break off the crab legs, bite off both ends, and suck hard, and the meat in the crab thighs will be sucked out. You can also use scissors to remove the crab leg shells. Cut it open, pick the crab leg meat and eat the crab cut, anyway, how convenient it is to eat.

Cut the remaining crab shells, split them into three sections according to their joints, and use scissors to cut the crab shells and pick out the crab meat.

Everyone watched Song Qiuzai eat one crab carefully, and then started to follow Song Qiu's action, and began to chop the crab in front of him.

For a moment, the table was full of voices admiring the delicious food.

Delicious crab roe, firm and sweet crab meat, paired with ginger vinegar sauce, let alone the taste.

Three crabs per person, old Yuan Shi and old Deng Shi are fine, but the others still feel that they have more to say.

Song Qiu then laughed: "Crabs are cold in nature, so don't be greedy for too many. Three poops are a lot. Let's eat them again in the Mid-Autumn Festival next year."

Shi Dan'er was young and in poor health, but he didn't dare to feed him the crabs. Everyone could eat them, and he wanted them too, so Miao shi scooped them up and fed them to taste. He pursed his mouth and clapped his little hands: "It's delicious, I'll eat it again next year."

The greedy look of licking his tongue made everyone laugh.

Shi Dan'er, who is three years old this year, has a pointed face, no slender flesh, a yellowish white complexion, and a small stature. She looks like she is less than two years old.

This body, no need to ask, it can be seen that it is not good.

He was originally a big fat boy weighing seven and a half catties at birth, but by the time he was one year old he had grown up like a tiger, and was very healthy, so who is to blame.

The adults all sighed quietly, and Zhang Hugua, the father, lowered his head even more, his eyes turning red silently.

After dinner, the children went to play in the garden first, and the adults gathered in the small hall for a while, old Yuan Shi and old Deng Shi sat next to each other, and couldn't help asking: "Do you plan to have another one? "

The Miao family is not yet thirty, so they can live if they want to.

I don't know how old Shi Dan'er can live, but I'm afraid that this body is not good enough to beg for a wife. A poor family, who is willing to marry, does not know if he can give birth to a son to keep incense.

Therefore, it would be good if he could still have a son.

After Zhang Huguafan came to his senses, the ones he felt most sorry for were his son and daughter. He made up his mind to save a good dowry for his daughter and find a good husband's family.

But here with my son, I have seen several doctors, and they all said the same thing. If you take intensive care, you will not live long.

What he can do is to love his son well, hoping that he can live longer, marry a daughter-in-law, the daughter-in-law will be hot on the bed, and his life will be more fulfilling.

Like this, spending money is indispensable. He has to take medicine every day, eat carefully, and he has to pay back the money from the second brother's family. He works hard, but he can't save much money.

Therefore, Zhang Hugua didn't plan to have another child in his heart, just one son and one daughter would be fine.

He had discussed this matter with his wife in the dead of night, and the Miao family also thought so.

When everyone heard what he meant, they also sighed, and didn't persuade you that you must have a baby, or have a baby.

Children are the debts of their parents. Shi Dan'er made it like this, so he didn't have to run away. Zhang Hugua was originally to blame. He changed it and knew in his heart that he owed Shi Dan'er.
They can understand that they don't want to be born again, and they feel quite relieved.

The old Yuan said: "The doctor is more powerful. I saw that Shi Dan'er is in good spirits. He was able to run with Zaohua just now. As long as he takes good care of him, he may not be able to live past 30 years old. By then It's the same if you give birth to a boy and a half girl, and you two will bring them up well."

Both Zhang Hugua and Miao Shi nodded, and they thought so too.

It was completely dark, and the full moon in the sky was like daylight, illuminating the entire garden.

Everyone sat in the pavilion eating moon cakes and admiring the bright moon.

Song and Qiu took jujube flowers and stone eggs and played hide-and-seek in the garden.

The moonlight is as cool as water, and the silver light is shining. Behind the rockery, under the flowers, and behind the big trees, there are laughter everywhere.

Nung, moon and new moon.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival in the fifth year of Ningkang in the Dali calendar, the Song, Li and Zhang families gathered together to enjoy the moon and celebrate the festive season. It was destined to be an unforgettable night.

Li Yang left in the middle of the night, Song Qiu sent him out, and he led the horse.

The two walked side by side until they descended the gentle slope.

In the middle of the night, the full moon was amazingly full, and Li Yang could clearly see the fine hairs on Song Qiu's face when he lowered his eyes.

The night breeze is blowing gently, the moon scene is pleasant, and the emotion is uncontrollable.

Li Yang's heart thumped violently, his hands trembling, he mustered up his courage, and grabbed the little hand that he wanted to hold for a long time.

Gently pulled him into his arms and hugged him, "Aqiu, remember to miss me, and I will miss you too."
