Chapter 116 The Xu Family is Very Different
Zhang rinsed the cooked noodles in a basin of cold water, and then waited for Old Lady Xu's prawns to be fried before pouring them in and mixing them evenly.
This method was taught by Xu Ning. Rinse the cooked noodles with cold water so that they will be more elastic and taste chewier.
The Xu family all love this method of eating. Whether it is soup noodles, mixed noodles or cold noodles, it is very delicious.
At this time, the shrimps on Grandma Xu's side had turned into the most attractive color. Grandma Xu's small stove was not big enough, so Zhang turned off the fire at the bottom of the pot, scooped out the water in the pot and poured the noodles back in. Grandma Xu then began to add the soy sauce that Xu Ning had given her.
"Okay! Take your bowls and eat!" Old Mrs. Xu poured the shrimps into the pot and stirred it. She looked up and shouted. All the people in the Xu family automatically lined up by the pot holding their bowls.
The man Aji was still in a daze, and Xu Da, who happened to be standing behind him, directly stuffed a bowl into his hand.
The man Aji looked down and saw the "bowl" in his hand and was stunned.
Next to the pot, the children of the Xu family were already eating.
"Slurp slurp slurp"
"Slurp slurp slurp"
"Alright, alright, take your first bite, then go away and stop blocking your father and the others from showing off!"
"Slurp slurp slurp" In response to Old Lady Xu, the children slurped noodles without even raising their heads. However, they continued eating and moved around consciously.
"Aji, come here quickly, let me save face for you." Old Mrs. Xu knew how to change her expression. She had a look of disgust in the last second, but now she was smiling.
Old Mrs. Xu handed the filled bowl to her daughter-in-law Zhang, who turned around and handed it to Old Man Xu.
Ah Ji handed the bowl over embarrassedly. He had just looked for it and found that this was the only bowl left in the Xu family.
If he doesn't use the bowl, he has to use that small stove.
"Don't be shy, it will be hard for you to find a wife if you do this." Xu Da patted his shoulder from behind. Just as Ah Ji was about to speak, he saw that Old Lady Xu had already filled half a bowl of noodles for him! !
"Auntie, Auntie! That's enough! I can't eat that much!" Old Mrs. Xu looked at Ah Ji's figure and took two more pieces with her chopsticks before stopping. At this time, the top of the bowl in her hand had become peaked.
Ah Ji was so anxious that he broke out in sweat. Old Mrs. Xu stuffed the bowl and chopsticks into his hands, and Xu Da, who was behind him, ran up quickly.
"Mom, I can do it myself! You take a break!"
Xu Da took the chopsticks from Old Lady Xu, picked up a large bowl for Old Lady Xu first, then picked up a large bowl for his wife, and then served himself.
Old Mrs. Xu found a seat next to Old Man Xu and sat down. She glanced at her son who was still busy working and chatted with Old Man Xu in a low voice: "Old man, how do these shrimps taste?"
"It's delicious, the meat is firm and sweet." Old man Xu doesn't have many teeth, so he can only grind them slowly when eating shrimp.
Old Mrs. Xu took a bite and couldn't help but nod, "Just eat a few shrimps, and eat more noodles, it won't be so tiring."
"I know, I know. Please eat more, wife." Old Man Xu put down his bowl and chopsticks, peeled several shrimps and put them into Old Lady Xu's bowl.
Old Mrs. Xu took Old Man Xu's bowl back and scooped two chopsticks of noodles from her own bowl and gave it to him.
While Ah Ji was eating noodles with his head down, he carefully observed everyone in the Xu family. He suddenly felt that the Xu family was very different and very warm.
It was a kind of warmth he had never experienced before. Xianyu Village was dominated by men, and so was his family. His mother, like other women in the village, was the last person to eat. He had never felt that there was anything wrong before, but at this moment, he discovered that the atmosphere of getting along in the Xu family was truly family-like!
Ah Ji looked down at the braised shrimp noodles in the bowl. This was the most delicious thing he had ever eaten. He thought his mother had never eaten noodles as delicious as this. "Auntie! Xu Da, can I take the leftovers home? I want to give some to my mother."
