Chapter 196 Teaching Cooking

The next day, Aunt Yu and Jiang Youning arrived after Su Nuannuan had finished breakfast.

The two of them are clearly together.

Sister-in-law Yu was carrying a half-bucket of shrimp and crabs. One of the king crabs belonged to Jiang Youning, and the remaining half-bucket of tiger prawns belonged to Sister-in-law Yu.

Jiang Youning was carrying half a can of oil and a bag of salt.

Upon seeing this, Su Nuannuan knew the purpose of the two's visit.

When Su Jinjin and Su Mianmian saw the two of them arrive, they immediately stood up to welcome them.

Sister-in-law Yu didn't stand on ceremony with the two of them; as soon as she arrived, she asked them questions.

"Where's Xiuting? Isn't she home?"

Su Mianmian took the things from her sister-in-law and Jiang Youning, and explained them to them.

"My mom went to the beach early this morning."

Su Mianmian brought the two into her home and then asked them questions.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing?"

Yesterday, Su Mianmian overheard Su Nuannuan and Jiang Youning's conversation. Therefore, she had no questions about Jiang Youning's arrival. However, Sister-in-law Yu was different.

The only person in the house who could talk to Aunt Yu was Chen Xiuting. But now Chen Xiuting had gone out. Aunt Yu didn't seem too disappointed after hearing this.

Sister-in-law Yu smiled and explained.

"I'm here to see Nuannuan. The day before yesterday, Nuannuan made a dish of fried shrimp balls. Jinjin brought it out and let all of us old sisters try it. I thought it tasted delicious, and I wanted Nuannuan to teach me how to make it today."

Jiang Youning chimed in.

"Sister Mianmian, I'm also here to learn how to cook. But I prefer braised crab pieces."

Upon hearing Jiang Youning mention braised crab pieces, Su Mianmian recalled the braised shrimp and crab that Su Nuannuan had instructed Chen Xiuting to make yesterday. It did indeed taste quite good.

However, the meal at home yesterday was quite plentiful. There was a lot of braised shrimp and crab left over, which Cheng Qian and Wen Wuqi took and shared with their comrades.

Su Nuannuan thought about her plans for the afternoon and didn't want to waste time. So, she said to Su Mianmian.

"Second sister, leave Sister-in-law Yu and Comrade Jiang Youning to me. I'll teach them how to make braised crab pieces and fried shrimp balls."

Sister-in-law Yu and Jiang Youning both nodded when they heard Su Nuannuan's words.

Su Mianmian finally agreed. However, when her sister-in-law and Jiang Youning weren't paying attention, she still pulled Su Nuannuan aside and said to her.

"Nuan Nuan, Yu's sister-in-law and Jiang Youning's family are not simple. Be careful when you are with them."

Su Mianmian was unaware that Su Nuannuan had completely changed. She worried that Su Nuannuan might lose her temper and offend the two of them when she was with them.

Su Nuannuan isn't stupid. While she can't bring herself to fawn over or flatter those from better backgrounds than her, she also won't deliberately offend them.

Seeing Su Nuannuan nod in agreement, Su Mianmian immediately felt relieved.

Leading the two into the kitchen, Su Nuannuan briefly explained how to make braised crab pieces and fried shrimp balls. Then she instructed them to prepare the king crab and tiger prawns.

Su Nuannuan didn't stand on ceremony with the two women. She told them to get to work. Aunt Yu and Jiang Youning were both upright people, and they didn't complain about Su Nuannuan directing them.

King crab is easy to handle; you just need to scrub it with a brush. After Jiang Youning finished cleaning the king crab, Su Nuannuan handed her a kitchen knife and told her to start chopping it into pieces.

Su Nuannuan handed the kitchen knife in her hand to Jiang Youning and said.

"You Ning, it's all up to you now."

Jiang Youning hesitated before taking the cleaver, her slender wrist contrasting sharply with the sharp blade. Seeing this, Su Nuannuan felt a pang of doubt. Although Jiang Youning was the same age as her, Su Nuannuan felt the other woman was even more frail. She was genuinely worried that Jiang Youning might accidentally injure herself while chopping the crab meat.

So Su Nuannuan spoke up.

"Or, I'll do it."

Hearing Su Nuannuan's words, the girl, who had been hesitant, made a gesture of refusal, staring intently at the king crab on the cutting board, and said.

"Nuan Nuan, no need. I can manage!"

After saying that, Su Nuannuan saw Jiang Youning grit her teeth and strain, and with a 'bang', the once whole king crab was split in two by the girl.

Upon seeing this, Su Nuannuan's eyes widened immediately. There was no doubt that the king crab's shell was extremely hard. Previously, when Su Nuannuan peeled king crabs, she always targeted its most vulnerable joints.

Unlike Jiang Youning, who directly cleaved the king crab's hardest shell.

Jiang Youning realized that her action had startled Su Nuannuan. So, she threw the kitchen knife on the cutting board and resumed her cheerful and gentle sunflower-like demeanor.

"Nuan Nuan, I'm not usually this strong."

Su Nuannuan swallowed hard, nodded, and said.

"Yeah, I believe you."

A happy smile immediately bloomed on Jiang Youning's face.

Having witnessed Jiang Youning's strength, Su Nuannuan was no longer worried about him. She turned around and went to the door to help Aunt Yu remove the shrimp veins.

Although Aunt Yu was sitting at the door, she saw everything inside. When she saw Su Nuannuan come out, she smiled and spoke.

"Nuan Nuan, you must be scared. Don't be afraid, although You Ning is a bit strong, she doesn't hit people."

Su Nuannuan nodded and said helplessly.

"Sister-in-law Yu, you've misunderstood. I'm just so surprised. You Ning is only 15 years old, how can she be so strong?"

Sister-in-law Yu smiled and began to explain.

"It's all because when Youning's mother was pregnant with her, she ate too many nutritional supplements, which over-nourished Youning's body. Youning weighed seven pounds at birth. Her mother suffered a lot when she gave birth to her."

When Su Nuannuan heard about Jiang Youning's birth weight, she gasped in shock.

The standard weight for a newborn is 3 to 4 pounds, but Jiang Youning weighed a whopping 7 pounds. This is completely below standard!
Moreover, Jiang Youning's mother actually managed to give birth to her successfully. According to Sister-in-law Yu, Jiang Youning's mother did not experience any complications during childbirth.

Su Nuannuan thought Jiang Youning's mother was really lucky. You see, a baby of Jiang Youning's birth weight would usually cause difficult labor for the mother. Even in her previous life, such a pregnant woman would be considered high-risk.

Su Nuannuan looked at Jiang Youning, who was now less than 1.6 meters tall, and could not imagine that she weighed seven pounds at birth.

However, thinking about Jiang Youning's great strength, Su Nuannuan understood.

Su Nuannuan didn't dwell on Jiang Youning's matter too much and quickly focused all her attention on peeling shrimp.

After Sister Yu removed the shrimp veins, Su Nuannuan began to use a scalpel to peel the whole shrimp meat out of the shells.

Watching Su Nuannuan wield a scalpel, she could remove one shrimp vein in three seconds, faster than I could remove the vein myself.

Sister-in-law Yu was truly amazed.

Aunt Yu was a worldly woman and knew that the most important thing for a surgeon was a steady hand. She had already noticed that Su Nuannuan's hand didn't shake at all, except when she was placing the shrimp on the cutting board.

People like Su Nuannuan are natural-born surgical talents.
