bride as a paranoid mermaid

Chapter 12 Picked up a mermaid

On the third day, the rainstorm still didn't stop, Xia Shenlan put the matter of making dumplings on the agenda.

He had to spend the whole morning chopping stuffing and mixing stuffing in the kitchen, so he didn't have time to accompany Jiang Chenxing and the mermaid.

He originally wanted to set a table of poker for them, who would have thought that both of them lacked interest and didn't want to play at all.

Xia Shenlan can only let them go, they can do whatever they like, he is just a ruthless stuffing machine.

Jiang Chenxing likes to eat stuffed chicken and lotus root, Xia Shenlan likes to eat stuffed with egg and chives, Xia Shenlan prepared a large bowl of the last two kinds of stuffing.

Xia Shenlan rolled the dumpling wrappers by herself, from kneading, kneading and waking up the noodles in one go. After all, he has been making dumplings with his grandfather since he was a child. These steps have been imprinted in his mind just like fishing.

After all the preparations were done, Jiang Chenxing also took a nap, just in time to start making dumplings.

Jiang Chenxing made gaudy willow leaf dumplings, while Xia Shenlan used the method taught by her grandfather all the time - kneading the dumplings with the tiger's mouth, one pinch made one.

The mermaid was eager to move, Xia Shenlan saw that he was very bored, so she shared a pile of dough, and found a video of how to make dumplings for him, so that he can play by himself.

There is no doubt that although Xia Shenlan's wrapping method is the ugliest, it is extremely efficient.

For the same big bowl of dumpling stuffing, Xia Shenlan had already finished making it, and Jiang Chenxing had just packed half of it.

Xia Shenlan took another look at the mermaid, good guy, the video he found for the mermaid said there were eleven wrapping methods in total, and the mermaid just wrapped one, and the style it put out was no different from the cover of the video.

It's not that he hasn't done things like learning other bag techniques before, but he learned them all with his brain, and his hands are useless.

"...a cow."

The mermaid looked puzzled.

"Ah, I just want to praise you for being great." Xia Shenlan gave a thumbs up. This internationally accepted gesture, I hope sea and land can also use it.

The mermaid smiled, as if she understood what Xia Shenlan meant.

"I'll steam them for you tonight. After all, it's the fruit of your labor. I don't think you have any problem eating other things. It seems that you can eat human food."

While talking, Xia Shenlan put away all the dumplings and put them in the refrigerator to freeze, so as not to harden the dough.

After all the dumplings were put away, Xia Shenlan returned to the table, and together with Jiang Chenxing, wrapped all the remaining lotus root stuffing.

With Xia Shenlan's participation, the remaining half of the stuffing was quickly finished.

Xia Shenlan packed everything properly and was finally able to sit and play for a while. She didn't touch her phone for a long time, and suddenly remembered that when he was looking for a dumpling wrapping video for the mermaid, he temporarily left the phone with the mermaid.

He had taught the mermaid not to get the phone in the water in advance, but after all, it took such a long time to go out, so he was still a little worried.

Xia Shenlan went to the fish tank to get her phone back.

The mermaid was still lying on the edge of the fish tank, staring at the phone intently.

After approaching Xia Shenlan, she realized that the mermaid was not watching the video on how to make dumplings at all, but learned to look for new videos on the homepage to watch without a teacher.

Mermaids are really smart.

Xia Shenlan couldn't help but sighed in his heart, after thinking for a while, he didn't take his phone back, but moved out of the computer to watch the drama for a while.

At 04:30, Xia Shenlan went to the kitchen to steam the dumplings, and dipped garlic in water by the way.

It didn't take long to steam the dumplings. Before five o'clock, Xia Shenlan came out with the dumplings.

He purposely divided three plates, one plate was willow leaf dumplings made by Jiang Chenxing, one plate was ordinary dumplings made by himself, and the other plate was of course gaudy dumplings made by mermaids.

Xia Shenlan let Jiang Chenxing eat first, and he brought the mermaid dumplings to the fish tank.

"Eat it, you wrapped it yourself, this is the crystallization of your own labor."

The mermaid ate happily, but he didn't eat two. He eagerly looked at Xia Shenlan's plate.

"What are you looking at me for? Both of us have the same stuffing."

The mermaid picked up a dumpling from his plate and sent it to Xia Shenlan.

For the first time, Xia Shenlan felt that she couldn't connect with the mermaid's brain circuit, and asked tentatively: "Are you going to feed me? Do you want me to eat the dumplings you made?"

Regardless of whether the mermaid understood or not, he floated a little higher, and the dumplings were closer to Xia Shenlan's lips.

Xia Shenlan slowly approached the dumplings, seeing that the mermaid was still trying her best to deliver the dumplings to him, and finally bit off the dumplings in one bite.

The mermaid looked at Xia Shenlan with anticipation in her pure eyes. "...the dumplings you made... are delicious..." Xia Shenlan boasted against her will, and by the way made an internationally accepted gesture - thumbs up.

In fact, the method of wrapping the dumplings does not affect the taste, but the mermaid has already put on this expression, but anyone who is not a hard-hearted person must praise it.

The mermaid tilted her head slightly, and pointed at the dumpling in Xia Shenlan's hand with her chopsticks.

Xia Shenlan suddenly understood, "Oh, you don't want my praise, you want to exchange dumplings at the same price..."

Xia Shenlan passed the plate over without changing her expression, and let the mermaid choose.

Anyway, the mermaid didn't know what he was talking about, as long as he didn't feel embarrassed, there was nothing embarrassing about it.

The mermaid took away one of Xia Shenlan's dumplings, but couldn't taste the difference, and happily ate her own dumpling.

He is so smart that he is not like an animal. Apart from the language barrier, his IQ performance is even better than some humans.

If he learns the language...

Thinking of this possibility, Xia Shenlan shivered.

Language is a unique social attribute of human beings. If the mermaid has learned it, can he still simply regard the mermaid as a smart fish?

This question is more or less unfounded, Xia Shenlan temporarily put it behind her.

Don't worry until the day the mermaid can really talk.

After eating, Xia Shenlan washed the dishes and prepared in advance the sashimi that the mermaid would eat the next morning.

After finally coming out of the kitchen, Xia Shenlan took back the cell phone that was about to be turned off from the mermaid, and glanced at the weather forecast by the way.

The forecast said that the rain would stop in the early hours of tonight, and tomorrow would be sunny. If the forecast was accurate, he should be able to go to sea tomorrow.

Silent all night.

The next morning, after regaining consciousness, Xia Shenlan got up and looked out the window. The rain had stopped, the sky was cloudless, and it really looked like a sunny day.

It seems that today we can go to sea.

Xia Shenlan was in a good mood, happily cooked porridge, fed the mermaid, and fed the cat with fish fillets.

The stingy black cat seems to have not recovered from yesterday's anger, and ignores Xia Shenlan's breakfast, only when Xia Shenlan went to open the balcony door, it rushed to the balcony at lightning speed , and lightly jumped onto the reef pile on the shore.

Xia Shenlan was afraid of waking Jiang Chenxing up, so she didn't dare to shout loudly, and ran to the edge of the balcony worriedly.

The black cat didn't even look back, and it jumped and disappeared after a few moves.

Remembering this hatred, Xia Shenlan was amazed.

But now that the rainstorm has stopped, it is so smart that it should be able to live well outside.

The main conflict in this family is that the relationship between one person, one cat and one fish is not harmonious. The cat is gone, and Xia Shenlan no longer needs to cover her eyes to feed the mermaid, and Jiang Chenxing will no longer be sullen because of this.

Generally speaking, there are no conflicts in this family now.

Life is gradually getting a bit like it was before my grandfather passed away. I get up on time in the morning, go out to sea after doing my homework, and come back when I have a suitable harvest. I make up the net, chatter, and the day is calm and fast. passed.

The only thing that makes Xia Shenlan a little ridiculous is that the black cat never came to steal the salted fish again, but would secretly put some salted fish on the balcony when Xia Shenlan was away, and I don’t know whether it is repaying the favor or repaying it. Debt for stealing fish.

However, after Jiang Chenxing's reminder, Xia Shenlan suddenly realized that the black cat is a veteran at stealing salted fish, and the origin of these salted fish is probably not legitimate.

He didn't embarrass the black cat at the beginning, but it doesn't mean that other people who had stolen fish wouldn't embarrass it either.

Xia Shenlan deliberately chose not to go out to sea for a day, and squatted on the balcony for a day, but the black cat was very smart, knowing that Xia Shenlan was there, it didn't show up at all, Xia Shenlan couldn't do anything to stop it.

After a week, Xia Shenlan was no longer in the mood to care about the black cat.

Because there are two days until the 18th, which is the day when Jiang Chenxing will go to the hospital for an examination.

According to past habits, Xia Shenlan would not go out on the 17th, but stayed at home with Jiang Chenxing and gave him a manicure.

——Because of heart disease, Jiang Chenxing's nails are blue-purple all the year round. Jiang Chenxing doesn't like this lifeless color, so Xia Shenlan specially went to learn manicure, and would change Jiang Chenxing's nails every month.

On the 16th, Xia Shenlan didn't look for clues from her grandfather, but caught fish for a whole day, making preparations for not going out to sea for the next two days.

After all, he is a cheater, if he is serious about catching fish, it will definitely explode the box.Xia Shenlan returned with a full load, and it was getting late, so he hurried to the kitchen to process the fish.

As the day of the inspection approached, Jiang Chenxing also appeared a little uneasy, standing at the kitchen door looking at Xia Shenlan's back in a daze.

Xia Shenlan always felt that there was someone behind her, so she made up her mind to look back, and was almost scared by Jiang Chenxing at the door.

"What are you doing standing here?!"

"I'd like to see you."

"It's just for a routine inspection, and it's not to give you a death sentence. Don't make it feel like you are dying."

"Some things, no matter how many times I go through them, I still can't get used to them."

"If you can't get used to it, don't think about it for the time being. I'll change your nail art tomorrow. You can search now to see if there is any style you like. Let me take a look in advance, so I have a good idea."

Jiang Chenxing has always listened to Xia Shenlan's words very much. Hearing this, he stood for a while, then took out his phone and started looking for it.

He finally chose a set of retro red manicure, with some gold thread pearls on the nails as decorations.

Red is a color that complements the skin tone very well, and Jiang Chenxing's fingers are slender, so white that there is no blood color, this manicure might look better than the model picture.

"Okay, let's just do this." Xia Shenlan nodded and said, "Send me the picture, and I'll study how to do it after cleaning up."

"it is good."
