Chapter 208 Steamed Sea Urchin with Egg
When Su Nuannuan returned home with a bucket of sea urchins, Su Jinjin and Su Mianmian both had expressions of disbelief on their faces.

Having lived on the island for so many years, the two naturally knew that sea urchins were not easy to obtain.

Although the children in the family loved to eat it, Su Jinjin and Su Mianmian didn't give them much.

Because, unless they catch sea urchins in the shallow waters, most islanders dare not venture into the deep waters. Even if someone offers a high price to buy them, no one is willing to pay.

Su Jinjin and Su Mianmian were pleasantly surprised to see so many sea urchins.

Seeing this, Su Nuannuan handed the bucket in her hand to Cheng Qian, who was on his way home from get off work, and joked.

"Brother-in-law, I want to eat steamed sea urchin with egg. I'll have to trouble you tonight."

Although Su Nuannuan said on the surface that she wanted to eat steamed sea urchin with eggs, she actually wanted to give the little ones in her family an extra meal.

Su Nuannuan will be going back in a couple of days. Although she hasn't spent much time with her nephews, she still likes them very much.

When you have something good, you naturally want to share it with others.

Cheng Qian, quick-witted as ever, immediately guessed Su Nuannuan's thoughts, and his smile became even more genuine.

"Okay, I'll cook dinner tonight."

When Su Jinjin saw so many sea urchins, her eyes practically lit up with golden light.

However, she remembered that sea urchins were hard to come by and she didn't want to eat them so quickly. So, she made a suggestion.

"There are so many sea urchins. Why don't we save some to eat tomorrow?"

After hearing this, Su Mianmian shook her head and said...

“No, that won’t do. Sister Yu and Aunt Jiang from next door have been helping us dry seafood these past few days. Sister Yu even brought over ten kilograms of kelp and seaweed yesterday. We’ll keep some of these sea urchins and give them to Sister Yu and Aunt Jiang later.”

Su Jinjin always listened to Su Mianmian. When Su Mianmian spoke up, Su Jinjin was a little disappointed, but she did not refuse.

After everyone finished talking, Cheng Qian became curious about where these sea urchins came from.

"Warm Nuan, where did you find all those sea urchins?"

Cheng Qian knew that sea urchins were difficult to catch, and he didn't think Su Nuannuan had the ability to collect them from the sea. This made Cheng Qian even more curious.

Besides Cheng Qian, Wen Wuqi, Su Jinjin, and Su Mianmian were also very curious.

Su Nuannuan didn't hide anything and told everyone about her encounter with a group of sea urchins. However, she didn't mention how big the group of sea urchins was.

Therefore, everyone believed that the sea urchins in the bucket were all the sea urchins in the group.

Su Mianmian took out sixteen sea urchins, divided them into two equal portions, and had Cheng Junqi and the other two children deliver them to Aunt Yu and Aunt Jiang's house.

After dividing it up, there were 34 sea urchins left in the bucket. Each family member had two or three on average, which was just enough.

After making the decision, Cheng Qian began processing the sea urchins.

Cheng was very skilled at processing sea urchins. He made a small, round opening at the top of the sea urchin and then used tweezers to remove all the internal organs. Afterward, he rinsed it clean with water.

After cleaning all fifty sea urchins, Cheng Qian began pouring the beaten egg mixture into them.

Su Nuannuan sat quietly to the side, watching her family members prepare the sea urchins.

The process of making delicious food is therapeutic, and enjoying it is joyful.

Pour all the egg mixture into the sea urchin, and then put them all into the steamer.

After steaming for about ten minutes, Cheng Qian felt it was ready and turned off the heat.

When Cheng Qian lifted the lid, Su Nuannuan saw a large pot of tender yellow steamed sea urchin eggs in front of everyone.

At this time, Cheng Junqi and his two little ones had already returned.

Although they don't often eat steamed sea urchin with eggs, they are already very tempted just by smelling the aroma in the air.

Su Nuannuan herself couldn't stand it either.

She couldn't wait any longer and asked, "Brother-in-law, is it ready to eat?"

The three little ones, Cheng Junqi, also looked at Cheng Qian with expectant expressions.

Under everyone's gaze, Cheng Qian smiled and nodded.

He took out several plates from the cupboard and placed all the steamed sea urchin eggs onto the plates.

Because they used the outer shell of the sea urchin when steaming the eggs, everyone waited until the temperature dropped slightly before eating the sea urchin directly with spoons.

Seeing that Cheng Junqi and the other two children's hands were too small to hold properly, Su Nuannuan took a small bowl, put their sea urchins into the bowl, and let the three children eat them.

After taking care of the three little ones, Su Nuannuan ate all three at once.

Seeing that Su Nuannuan liked to eat, Su Daliang gave two of the three steamed sea urchins and eggs he had to Su Nuannuan.

Su Nuannuan shook her head and refused outright.

Although she was craving steamed sea urchin with egg, she still had plenty of sea urchins stored in her space. She could eat them whenever she wanted.

Seeing that Su Nuannuan had refused Su Daliang's steamed sea urchin with egg, Su Erqiang's tense expression immediately relaxed. He then happily began to eat the steamed sea urchin with egg.

Su Nuannuan, who noticed this scene: ...

My family really enjoyed tonight's dinner and decided to go beachcombing at the reef area together tomorrow.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Su Nuannuan really wanted to say something. She had already stored all the good stuff from the reef area into her spatial storage.

However, seeing everyone's excited and energetic faces, Su Nuannuan swallowed the words that were about to come out.

The next day, Su Nuannuan went out early as usual.

To match her appearance when going out for exercise, Su Nuannuan specially wore a neat cotton-padded jacket and trousers.

She pretended to run along the coastline. Then, when no one was around, Su Nuannuan turned behind a large rock.

Half an hour later, when Su Nuannuan came out again, she had changed her appearance.

Su Nuannuan arrived at the place where she had made the deal with Jin Ci yesterday.

However, this time, as soon as she stepped into this area, Su Nuannuan sensed that something was wrong.

Su Nuannuan scanned the area with her mental power and discovered that three or four people were hiding behind a large black reef in the distance.

Her face looked a little bad.

These people were hiding behind a large rock, looking rather suspicious, and Su Nuannuan was worried that she might get into some trouble.

Jin Ci was initially very happy. However, upon seeing Su Nuannuan's gloomy expression, his smile immediately vanished.

Although he wasn't very good at reading people's expressions, Jin Ci still noticed Su Nuannuan's displeasure.

He asked cautiously.

"Brother Dashan, are you not satisfied with today's goods?"

This is the only reason Jin Ci can think of.

Su Nuannuan glanced at the seafood Jin Ci had brought today. She noticed that there was even more seafood today than yesterday.

The seafood was of very high quality. (Su)
Su Nuannuan shook her head, looked at Jin Ci, and said directly.

"There are people hiding over there."

Upon hearing Su Nuannuan's words, Jin Ci understood why she was angry. So, he quickly explained.

“They are my cousins. I bought all this seafood from their family. They knew I was coming to deliver goods this morning, so they helped me. They are trustworthy. If you don’t want them here, I’ll make them leave.”
