After loading the plate, I saw Mother Lu staring blankly at me cutting the fish fillets, as if I had nothing to do after being robbed of my job.

Seeing this, Xu Nan smiled and said to her:
"Mom, why don't you wash the vegetables first, just wash all the vegetables we bought today, and then put them on a plate and pack them up."

After hearing this, Mother Lu quickly nodded in agreement, took the bag of vegetables and walked under the faucet to wash the vegetables.

Saving the cooking and stewing, the steps of cooking became a lot easier. Mother Lu and Xu Nan finished all the ingredients in a short while.

Thinking that the ingredients were not rich enough, Xu Nan quietly returned to the room while Lu Mu and Lu Nanzhou were not paying attention, and took out the hot pot base, lotus root slices, beef balls, etc. from the space.

Mother Lu felt a little strange when she saw it, and looked at it repeatedly with a crab stick in her hand, and asked Xu Nan from time to time:

"What is this crab stick?"

"Is it really made of crab meat? Then how many crabs are wasted to make one of this thing?"

"Where did you buy this thing, I haven't seen it before."

Seeing this, Xu Nan not only felt a little guilty, but looked at Lu Nanzhou and saw that his expression was flat, as if he was not curious at all, so he started talking nonsense to Lu's mother:

"I bought this crab stick at the supply and marketing cooperative in the city, as well as these ingredients."

"Look at my memory, I forgot to take it out. If I didn't plan to eat hot pot today, I would have forgotten all these things."

As for the question of whether the crab sticks are made of crab meat, Xu Nan chose not to answer.

After all, this crab stick comes from the 21st century with all kinds of additives and flavorings. As for how much meat it contains, she really can't tell.

After all, this thing may not even be considered meat, and it is probably a soy product at best.

Xu Nan couldn't say such unconscionable words.

Fortunately, Lu's mother is easy to deceive, and Xu Nan fooled her with just a few words.

There is no gas in my hometown, not even a gas tank, which makes Xu Nan a little bit difficult.

After all, this hot pot.It's fun to eat while cooking.

But right now there is obviously no such condition.

Xu Nan himself has followed the saying of creating conditions without conditions for so many years.

It is obviously impossible to let the whole family eat around the stove.

She turned her gaze and saw the old-fashioned enamel large iron plate under the table. The plate was square with a super deep bottom, which could hold a lot of things.

A sudden idea came to my mind.

Got it!

Then eat shabu shabu, anyway, in Xu Nan's opinion, the principle is the same.

Maybe the only difference is that there is an extra bamboo stick.

But what about bamboo sticks?Not here.

For a well-known food blogger in the 21st century, it is not easy to solve this little problem.

Xu Nan ran to the space again, and came out with a bag of bamboo sticks. When he met Lu's mother's questioning eyes, Xu Nan had already learned to lie without blushing:
"Bought by the supply and marketing agency."

"Oh."

Lu's mother was convinced of this, but Lu Nanzhou at this time looked at Xu Nan with a bit of inquiry in his eyes.

Not for anything else, it's because Xu Nan's behavior is really weird.

Xu Nan first took out the large iron plate under the table and put it under the faucet to clean it.

Then he added half a pot of water to the pot and signaled Lu Nanzhou to start a fire.

The pot of the earthen stove is much thicker than the normal pot, and it is not easy to start a fire, so it heats up very slowly.

After the water boiled, Xu Nan threw the bamboo sticks into the pot and boiled for a few seconds, then took out the bamboo sticks with a colander and let them cool down.

Then Xu Nan pulled Lu Nanzhou and Lu's mother to thread vegetables on the bamboo sticks.

Lu's mother and Lu Nanzhou took pictures of gourds, and while wearing Xu Nan, they met Lu's mother's puzzled eyes.

Just listen to her ask:
"Baby, I'm really a little confused."

"Didn't we say we want to eat some fish pot? Why are you still wearing bamboo sticks now?"

Although Lu's mother was puzzled, she kept moving her hands and was very efficient. She prepared dishes one after another.

Seeing this, Xu Nan explained to her:

"I originally planned to eat fish pot, but there is no suitable pot at home, and we can't sit by the stove to eat."

"I thought it would be better to make shabu-shabu directly, and it would be more convenient to eat after cooking."

After threading the skewers, Xu Nan started to fry the hot pot base.

It is not so much a hot pot bottom material, but a secondary processing.

The hot pot base ingredients are all ready-made base ingredients that Xu Nan took from the space, just pour them into the pot and fry them, which saved her a lot of time.

Seeing that the bottom of the hot pot was fried, Xu Nan poured more than half of the pot of water into the pot, then put the lid on the pot, and waited for the water to boil.

A lot of time was wasted because of handling the ingredients and temporarily changing my mind about stringing.

Mother Lu went back to the house to check the time, and it was already ten o'clock in the morning.

If there is no accident, the other two brothers of the Lu family will be back soon.

Seeing this, Xu Nan dug out the gifts for the Lu family's two younger brothers from the gift bag he brought to the Lu family when he returned to his hometown that day.

They are all daily necessities and school supplies, which are quite satisfactory, and people can't fault them.

Even the warm sweaters are chosen in the most acceptable gray and dark blue.

Seeing Xu Nan's appearance, Mother Lu laughed and said:

"Look at your appearance, if you don't know, you might think that you are entertaining some royal relatives."

"Second and third child play best with you when you are at home on weekdays. If you see the gift you brought them, I'm afraid their faces will wrinkle with laughter."

Holding the things, Xu Nan smiled with a very guilty face. After hearing Lu's mother's words, his face became more nervous.

After all, she is not the original owner. In her memory at this time, the two younger brothers of the Lu family are completely like strangers.

It is said that no matter what you do, you can't hide it from people you know well. When this thing comes, if she does something to show her feet and gets discovered, then what should I do?

Xu Nan decided that when he met the two younger brothers of the Lu family, he would not speak if he could, so as to save himself from being discovered by others, which would be a serious problem.

After an unknown amount of time, Xu Nan's shabu-shabu was already cooked, and the voices of the second and third children of the Lu family came from the door.

"Mom, Dad, we're back!"

Since Xu Nan and Lu Nanzhou decided to come back temporarily, the two brothers of the Lu family didn't know that they lived in the school. When they saw Lu Nanzhou at this time, there was inevitably surprise in their tone:
"Brother, sister-in-law?"

"When did you come back?"

The second son of the Lu family has already attended high school, so he speaks and acts more steadily. He just asked in surprise, but the joy and admiration in his eyes did not diminish at all.
