Seeing the green prawns in the Spring Warm kernels, Dou Wang also chuckled twice. He turned around and placed the green prawns on the stone slab into her kernels as well, and then lifted the water bucket.
”Warm Spring, let's go.”
Hearing that there was something delicious to eat, Chun Xiao immediately went along with his mother and washed himself clean, then changed into a set of clean clothes.
Chun Xiao felt wronged as he hugged Wangzhige's neck and pouted. He felt that his sister had not treated him well today, so he had no choice but to coax her.
”Big sister is making delicious food. If I talk to you and get distracted, the food will not taste good anymore.”
When Lin Chunnuan heard that his sister ignored him, in order to make the food taste better, he also quieted down, and quietly stretched out her neck to watch her actions. Lin Chunnuan used a rolling pin to turn the dried skin into powder, and put it into a small bowl, then poured some soy sauce into the bowl. There was no MSG, the powder from the shrimp shell was still a substitute, and at this time, the seasoning was still too little.
”Come here, each of you come one at a time. Have a taste, if it tastes good, then we'll go and fish more prawns in the future. At that time, I'll let you guys eat enough.”
In one hand, Lin Chunnuan was holding four peeled green prawns, and it was already white and tender now. In the other bowl was Lin Chunnuan's simple seasoning.
”Can this be eaten?”
Seeing the white and tender meat, it looked to be very tasty, but Dou Wang had indeed never eaten this before, nor had Zhang Liu.
”Mom, do you not know what this thing is called?”
Zhang Liu nodded.
”I saw it when I was washing clothes by the river, but everyone called it an ugly little fish. Because it had so many claws, no one dared to eat it.”
”Then try and see if it tastes good. See if you like this taste. It can be eaten directly, or with seasonings.”
Zhang Liu was still a little hesitant. She had seen this kind of little thing swimming around in the water before.
”I'll eat, I'll eat.”
Little Chun Xiao was not afraid, since her elder sister said it was delicious, then it must be delicious.
With that, Dou Wang carried Lin Chunxiao to the chair and sat him down. Chun Xiao held onto the edge of the table, stretched out his hands and grabbed a piece of prawn meat, dipped it in the water, and poured it into another bowl. After that, he dipped the soup into his own mouth and poured the seasoning juice onto the table.
”Oh, delicious.”
He put the remaining half of the prawn meat back into the sauce and stuffed it all into his mouth. This time, he did not swallow it as quickly as he could.
Upon hearing his son say it was delicious, Zhang Liu also picked up a piece of meat and broke off a small piece with his hands. At first, there was no smearing on the meat, but after putting it into his mouth, he chewed it carefully.
He broke off another piece and dipped the sauce into his mouth. This time, the taste was different. The fragrance was stronger, as if there was something inside the soy sauce.
”What's in the soy sauce? It smells so good.”
Because he had only cracked a little, Zhang Liu only had enough time to savor the taste before the prawn meat disappeared. There was only half a prawn left, and as Zhang Liu was smeared in the sauce, he fed it into his son's mouth.
”Come, Chun Xiao, eat.”
Although she could not eat anymore after knowing that her mother had given it to her, Chun Xiao was still unable to endure the deliciousness of the prawn. He ate the prawn that was brought to his mouth in the end, and at the same time, pointed at Second Sister.
”Second Sister, it's delicious.”
Seeing that his mother and brother both said that it was delicious, Chun Jiao also hurriedly picked up the prawn meat and took a small bite, just like his mother.
”The taste is different, but it's all delicious.”
Even though they were all delicious, it was obvious that the little girl preferred to eat the ones with seasonings on them. She dipped the remaining prawns in the seasonings and then slowly chewed them, savoring the taste. At this moment, there was only one shrimp left in the bowl, lying there alone.
”You want to eat, Wangzhige?”
Seeing that Dou Wang had not moved, Lin Chunnuan reminded him to hurry up and taste the prawn.
”Go ahead, I'm not hungry.”
Lin Chunnuan was amused by his words.
