IHOEAYSTTTIW Chapter 6
by VolareChapter 6: Blanched Oysters, Making Nightlife Even Crazier.
Lin Dazhuang carried a pile of pots and pans, following Lin Yan into the courtyard. Lin Yan held two net bags in his hands, unable to lift them high. He could only raise his chin towards the corner of the wall, “Just put the things there, thanks for your hard work today.”
Lin Dazhuang put the things down, looking at the neatly arranged courtyard, and sighed, “You’ve cleaned this place up so well, whoever marries you will be truly impressed.”
Lin Yan hummed and hawed, perfunctorily, no less surprised than Lin Dazhuang.
He knew his own courtyard well. When he arrived, the courtyard was clean, but after his wanton tossing, it had long become a mess.
Lin Yan hated cleaning up the most. Thinking that he was alone, he simply let it go and didn’t bother.
So, when he saw the clean courtyard, he was also taken aback.
Yun Qi came out from the Kitchen to greet him, with half a piece of flatbread still in his mouth, “Brother Lin, you…”
Seeing an outsider, Yun Qi swallowed the words he was about to say, obediently took the things from Lin Yan’s hand, and pretended to organize them, but his eyes wandered over Lin Dazhuang.
Lin Dazhuang was also sizing up Yun Qi. He scratched the back of his head and asked in a muffled voice, “Brother Yan, this is… your relative?”
“Yes, yes, yes.” Lin Yan was too lazy to explain Yun Qi’s origins, let alone to argue that he wasn’t a Ge’er. He stuffed a piece of silver into Lin Dazhuang’s hand, and politely urged him out, “It’s getting late, I won’t keep you any longer, Brother Dazhuang.”
The cool silver exuded the aura of a loved one, sweeping away the day’s fatigue. Lin Yan’s less-than-friendly attitude also became amiable and approachable.
Lin Dazhuang happily walked out, driving the ox cart and waving goodbye to Lin Yan.
“Have you eaten dinner?” Lin Yan peeled off the flatbread from Yun Qi’s face and checked Yun Qi’s wound.
The wound had already scabbed over, with some redness and swelling around it, but it hadn’t torn again, so it wasn’t a big problem.
“Yes, I simply tidied up the courtyard, and White has also been fed. Except for your Bedroom, which I didn’t dare to enter, I’ve cleaned everywhere else.” Yun Qi’s voice became smaller and smaller, almost inaudible at the end, “I saw it was getting late, and I thought you might not be coming back, so I heated up the flatbread in the Kitchen and ate it.”
Yun Qi was a little uneasy.
He had said in the morning that he could work and eat little. But today, apart from tidying up the courtyard, he hadn’t done anything else. Instead, he had eaten Lin Yan’s flatbread, three bites at a time, finishing three people’s worth in a day.
When he was eating, he only thought it was delicious, but when he saw the empty plate, he felt doomed.
“It’s okay, it’s okay.” Lin Yan held up his Purse and shook it in front of Yun Qi, “I have money now, eat as much as you want.”
Yun Qi nodded listlessly, not comforted at all.
Lin Yan had his own way of comforting people. Dry words could never compare to a hot meal. Lin Yan had just bought oysters, so he decided to have a special meal tonight.
“Help me with something.” Lin Yan picked up the net bag. The oysters inside had their mouths shut, rough and not very round, “I can’t handle so many by myself, help me out.”
“But…”
“No buts.” Lin Yan patted Yun Qi heavily on the back, “I’ll teach you.”
Handling oysters was a tedious task.
First, use a brush to clean the shell, then use a knife to knock out a small opening, insert the knife into the opening, and twist it a few times.
“After opening it like this, wash it in water again.” Lin Yan said, immersing the oysters in water.
The winter water was chillingly cold. Lin Yan only paused slightly before the oysters in his hand were taken away.
“Let me do it.” Yun Qi unhesitatingly put his hand into the water, cleaning away the broken shells little by little, and then cleaning the dirt in the oyster meat.
One person opened, one person washed, and soon a whole plate was filled.
White was attracted by the smell of the oysters, swaying its big tail, and jumped in from outside the Kitchen.
“Come on, baby.” Lin Yan picked White up from the ground and stuffed it into Yun Qi’s hand, “Warm up quickly, don’t get frostbite.”
White’s fur was standing on end from the cold. It struggled to jump out, but Lin Yan held its scruff, “Be good, I’ll give you a special meal later.”
White shuddered, calmed down, and reluctantly lay in Yun Qi’s hand, meowing triumphantly.
“You’re still not well, rest first, the rest is easy.”
The cleaned oysters were scooped out with a spoon, garlic was minced, green onions were chopped, water was boiled and green onions and ginger were added, and the oysters were added after the fragrance permeated. The oysters rolled in the pot, oozing broth, the water in the pot quickly turned light white, and the oysters slowly shrank.
Yun Qi hugged the cat, watching Lin Yan skillfully scoop out the oysters, drain the water with a spoon, plate them, sprinkle green onions, ginger, and garlic on top, then drizzle a spoonful of hot oil, plus two spoonfuls of light soy sauce.
He sniffed, the salty freshness like a sea breeze intertwined with the faint sweetness, the oysters on the plate, the oyster meat plump and plump, exuding a faint milky white luster. Yun Qi couldn’t help swallowing his saliva, he turned his face away from the demons in the plate, only to glimpse the chopsticks placed on the side.
Very good, the tools for committing the crime were right in front of him, making him feel even hungrier.
“Try it.” Lin Yan put the chopsticks in Yun Qi’s hand, looking at Yun Qi expectantly.
His education told him that this was impolite. But the demons in front of him were too alluring, and Lin Yan was still patiently persuading him.
Yun Qi hesitated for a long time, choosing to follow his heart and enjoy the moment.
The oyster meat was smooth and tender, but still with some firmness and delicacy. With one bite, the juice of the oyster meat exploded in the mouth, and the sweet and fresh taste swept through the entire taste buds.
Appreciating and appreciating, indulging and indulging, those rules and regulations began to play a role again. Yun Qi raised his chopsticks, then put them down listlessly, his whole person dispirited: “It’s delicious.”
“You don’t look like it.” Lin Yan thought his cooking skills had deteriorated, picked up one and chewed it, muttering, “It’s okay, are you not used to eating it?”
“No…”
Lin Yan shoved the plate into Yun Qi’s hand: “Then don’t be polite with me, eat.”
The fair little demons were posing coquettishly on the plate. Yun Qi swallowed his saliva, but still didn’t move. Lin Yan didn’t persuade him any further, picked up his chopsticks and devoured them.
Facts proved that food was always more interesting when you fought for it.
Looking at the increasingly fewer oysters, and then at the indifferent Lin Yan, Yun Qi chose to join the battle.
One chopstick for you, one chopstick for me, and the delicacies quickly turned into an empty plate.
Lin Yan burped, looking at the mess on the table, and became even more unwilling to move.
“Let me do it.” Yun Qi instantly understood and began to clean up the dishes.
“Thanks for your hard work, go to bed early after you finish cleaning up. You don’t have to worry about the remaining oysters, I’ll make oyster sauce tomorrow.” Lin Yan wiped his mouth, stretched, and prepared to welcome the nightlife.
Lin Yan, who only wanted to play with his Cellphone, didn’t notice that when he said oyster sauce, something that didn’t exist, Yun Qi didn’t show any surprise or accident.
Oysters, oysters, a man’s gas station, a woman’s beauty salon.
Lin Yan, who had eaten too many oysters, naturally couldn’t sleep.
Fortunately, the Cellphone had a large memory, many single-player games, and a solar charging treasure that was worth ten.
Lin Yan put on his Headphones and began his wonderful nightlife.
He opened a game he had never played before.
This is jumping, this is flying, this is the painful road full of thorns.
This is attack, this is parry, this is Grimm, the Nightmare King.
The game with a healing style was also mentally exhausting to play. Lin Yan’s attention was completely attracted by the small light screen. He didn’t notice White, who suddenly stood up in the corner, nor did he hear the approaching footsteps outside the house.
