The yearning life starts from catching the sea

Chapter 42 Seafood Dinner
At 5 o'clock in the evening, Li Jingguo and the others went out to sea to collect fishing nets and came back.

On the small pier, they quickly picked out some good seafood, and He Qingzheng and Qin Sanwei brought them back to Qin Tian's home, while Li Jingguo sent the remaining seafood to the Bald Man Seafood Restaurant.

Qin Tian took the seafood from He Qingzheng and Qin Weiwei at home, and asked them to go back to pick up their families first, and he began to process the seafood so that he could cook it directly when Zhang Liya came back.

After 6 o'clock in the evening, Zhang Liya got busy with a smile on her face as soon as she came back. Although it was just a dinner party tonight, she still felt very happy.

Because the family hadn't held a banquet for a long time, the last time Qin Tian hosted a banquet at home after he was admitted to university, and only Zhang Guofu's family was invited.

Now that Qin Tian is promising, Zhang Liya believes that there will be more and more good things in the family.

Qin Tian helped Zhang Liya deal with the seafood brought back by He Qingzheng and the others, and then killed the top-quality Chinese Splendid lobster that was accidentally caught today.

Zhang Liya hesitated to speak after seeing it, Qin Tian said with a smile: "Mom, it's okay, we are not short of this lobster now, and I also want to thank my uncle and Li Jingguo."

"Okay! You can do whatever you want."

Zhang Liya gave Qin Tian a helpless look, and started to get busy. There are a lot of dishes to cook tonight. Although the cooking method of seafood is relatively simple, she doesn't want others to dislike the bad taste. Also a little nervous.

After killing the lobster, Qin Tian went to the kitchen to move a large pot and put it on the earthen stove in the yard. The dishes to be cooked tonight are more diverse and the portions are more, so using a large pot can not only save time, It will be more delicious.

Soon, Qin Tian lit firewood in the earthen stove, and Zhang Liya took a big spoon and put the first dish into the pot to cook.

With the aroma of ginger and garlic bursting from the hot oil, the processed orchid crabs were poured into the pot, and a burst of fresh and attractive smell burst out with the heat, and then shrouded the entire yard.

Chef Zhang Liya and assistant chef Qin Tian worked together to cook the dishes one by one. Soon, it was 7:30 in the evening, and the first batch of guests also arrived.

"smell good!"

As soon as Zhang Guofu walked in from the outside, he gave a sigh of admiration, and then he walked over and said with a smile: "Liya, I haven't eaten your food for a long time. Back then, my dad liked to eat your food the most. In the blink of an eye, more than 20 years have passed!"

A trace of emotion also appeared on Zhang Liya's face, "Yes! My dad usually likes to drink a few sips, and he likes to eat my salt and pepper shrimp the most. In a blink of an eye, the little girl back then is almost an old woman!"

Wu Chunjiao saw the brothers and sisters reminiscing about the past, and quickly interrupted them, "Oh, I said, can you stop reminiscing about those old things, it will really spoil the fun."

After finishing speaking, she stared at Zhang Guofu, "Also, if you, Zhang Guofu, think that my food is not good, you can just say it! Don't beat me around here! I didn't treat your father badly back then. I served three meals a day on time. .”

Zhang Guofu saw Wu Chunjiao gradually wanting to lose his temper, and hurriedly dragged Qin Tian into the living room.

Wu Chunjiao's voice continued, "Hey, Zhang Guofu, what do you mean! I work so hard to cook for you every day, but you still dislike me now, don't you?"

Zhang Liya hurriedly comforted Wu Chunjiao, and Wu Chunjiao stopped talking and helped Zhang Liya continue cooking seafood.

In the living room, Zhang Guofu sat on the sofa and took a sip of tea before he said helplessly: "Xiaotian, after you marry your wife, don't talk nonsense, maybe your words will touch your wife's sensitive line." Nerves, you will feel better then."

Qin Tian smiled and didn't answer, thinking, my Wan'er wouldn't be like this!

Zhang Guofu sighed with emotion, and then said solemnly: "Xiaotian, you sold so many top-quality large yellow croakers yesterday, which has already attracted the attention of many people. Maybe someone will do something against you. You You have to be careful, you know?"

Qin Tian nodded solemnly, and then asked with some concern: "Uncle, what happened to those who bought the big yellow croaker?"

Before Qin Tian took advantage of those people's psychology of taking advantage, he sold so many top-quality large yellow croakers all at once, which had a great impact on the market price. He was a little worried about what would happen to those people.

Zhang Guofu said with a chuckle, "What can those people do? You and them pay the money and deliver the goods. Once they know your specific shipment quantity, your transaction will be completed."

"Moreover, there are still a lot of rich people in China. Although your shipment volume is a bit large, which leads to a reduction in market prices, it is not enough to make them lose money. On the contrary, they still make money."

There was concern in his eyes, "The problem now is, Xiaotian, you are already famous. Now basically no one in the entire seafood market in Huixi County knows your name."

"Even people in farther places know that you have sold a lot of top-quality large yellow croakers. Even some online media have reported this matter. Under the special guidance of some people, you are almost becoming Monkey King. Everyone I want to learn your 72 changes, which can produce so many top-quality large yellow croakers."

"So, Xiaotian, although I don't know why you can catch so many top-quality large yellow croakers, you really need to keep a low profile. Don't rush to make money for a while. Too high a profile won't do you any good."

Qin Tian smiled wryly and nodded. He has understood this truth for the past two days, but it is useless to regret it. He can only hope that this time it will not cause too much impact!

He chatted with Zhang Guofu for a few more words, and then he went to help Zhang Liya.

Then, Chen Jianfeng, Li Jingguo and their children, He Qingzheng and his parents, Qin Weiwei and his father, they all came to Qin Tian's house one after another.

When the women came, they started to help cook, and the men sat in the yard drinking tea and chatting. No matter what the status of these men at home, these women would give the men enough face outside. This is how they get along as a couple.

Didn't you see Zhang Guofu and Li Jingguo sitting together and bragging about B?Where is the look of the doormat before.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, as the last steamed top-quality Chinese Splendid Lobster was served, Zhang Liya notified Qin Tian that the dinner could begin.

As everyone took their seats, they immediately felt salivary when they saw the table full of seafood, and when they saw the huge Chinese Splendid Lobster, they were all a little surprised, especially the three of them, Li Jingguo, looked at Qin Qin with questioning eyes. sky.

Qin Tian didn't explain to them, but waited until everyone was seated, then said with a smile: "There are three meanings for inviting everyone to dinner tonight. The first one is that I made a lot of money in the past two days, and I want to celebrate it." one time."

"The second reason is that I want to thank you for your help and support. Without you, I would not be able to get to where I am today."

"The third reason is that I want to share with you this superb Chinese Splendid Lobster. It was just caught today, so it will be the freshest tonight. Alright, let's move our chopsticks!"

After listening to Qin Tian's words, they all showed happy smiles.

Zhang Guofu also helped and said, "Everyone, eat quickly! The seafood will not taste good when it is cold."

After he finished speaking, he immediately picked up a piece of Zhonghua Splendid Lobster Meat for Wu Chunjiao, which won a satisfied look from his wife. He was overjoyed, now he didn't have to worry about kneeling on the washboard when he went home.

Qin Tian also picked up a piece of lobster meat for Zhang Liya, and then started to eat it himself.

Seeing that both Qin Tian and Zhang Guofu started to move their chopsticks, the others started to eat.

Qin Weiwei took a piece of lobster meat for Qin Xiu, and another piece for himself, and said proudly, "Dad, try it quickly, I caught this lobster!"

Qin Xiu glared at him, and then picked up the lobster meat with a smile and started to eat it. As soon as he took a bite, he couldn't help showing an expression of intoxication, it was so fresh and delicious.

After eating two or three bites, Qin Xiu resisted the urge to grab another bite, and said with a sigh: "This lobster tastes really good, but the portion is a bit small."

Qin Weiwei asked mysteriously: "Dad, do you know how much the piece of lobster meat you ate just now cost?"

Qin Xiucheng's curiosity was aroused, and he asked, "How much?"

Qin Weisheng stretched out three fingers and said with emotion: "This lobster is worth more than 30 yuan, and your piece costs at least 1 yuan."

Qin Xiu was a little surprised. He knew that this lobster must be very expensive, but he didn't expect it to be so expensive. He had never eaten such an expensive thing in his life. Then, he didn't dare to pick it up.

However, Qin Sanwei gave him another piece. This time, he tasted the extremely delicious taste of lobster, and he also tasted the taste of money. Maybe he will never forget this feeling for the rest of his life.

On the other side, He Qingzheng also brought lobster meat to his parents. After he told them the specific value of the lobster, his parents also expressed emotion. Qin Tian's ability to treat such top-quality seafood to his guests also showed that Qin Tian really valued it. They are gone.

And Li Jingguo and his wife are another scene, Lin Xiaohong is holding the child, Li Jingguo is in charge of serving food, a warm and loving picture.

At this time, Zhang Liya saw how loving Li Jingguo and his wife were, and couldn't help but said to Qin Tian: "Xiaotian, when will you bring your girlfriend back!"

Qin Tian was stunned for a moment, and just as he was looking for a reason to deal with it, he heard Wu Chunjiao's surprised voice, "What? Liya, you mean Xiaotian has a girlfriend? When did it happen?"

Zhang Liya replied happily: "It was just a while ago! I just found out about it, and I haven't seen it yet!"

Seeing Qin Tian also nodded and admitted, Wu Chunjiao felt a sense of sadness in her heart. She pinched Zhang Guofu vigorously, "Look, Xiaotian has already found a girlfriend. Your son is still single in his thirties. Blame you for not teaching well."

Zhang Guofu suddenly fell from the sky with a scapegoat, and we all have a share in this son, okay?How can I say it's all my fault!
He was complaining in his heart, but on the surface he began to coax Wu Chunjiao with a gentle face. After coaxing for a while, he began to use Chen Jianfeng to change the subject, because Chen Jianfeng also didn't have a girlfriend.

Chen Jianfeng didn't talk to him, so he pretended not to know, and concentrated on eating seafood the whole time.

Qin Tian glanced at Zhang Liya helplessly, it was really a matter of which pot should not be opened and which pot should be lifted.

Zhang Liya suddenly lowered her head to eat in embarrassment. She really didn't mean it, she was just too happy for a while, and she couldn't help showing off that she had a future daughter-in-law.
