Chapter 441 Peeling Shrimp
The two rode their electric scooters to the university town closest to the school and found a food stall for a midnight snack.
Because tonight is the final of the Business School's Top Ten Singers Contest, the two of them had a few bites early in the cafeteria and went to the small auditorium. They had been busy until now and were a little hungry, so they came out for a midnight snack.
Gong Liu handed the menu to Gu Chenxi and said, "What do you want to eat?"
Gu Chenxi took a quick look at the menu, then handed it back to Gong Liu: "I don't even know how to order, you do it."
“Actually, I’ve never eaten here before.”
Jiaotong University is quite far away from the university town. In the past, Kong Yoo and his roommates would have dinner together in the back street of the school. Kong Yoo knows exactly what delicious food there is in the nearby food stalls - all his experience comes from eating out. But he doesn't know much about the things in the university town.
Gong Yoo glanced at the food stall owner not far away and raised his hand to greet her.
The proprietress had sharp eyes and immediately spotted Gong Liu waving at her. She walked over with a smile and asked, "What's wrong, brother?"
Gong Yoo smiled and asked, "Sister, we don't know what to eat, do you have any signature dishes?"
The proprietress immediately said, "We just received a batch of crayfish from Jianghan Oil City today. Would you like to try some?"
This is the season when lobsters just come on the market. The shrimps in many lobster producing areas are too small to sell, but the crayfish in Youcheng are growing well and are big enough, so they start to be sold in May.
The quantity is small and the price is relatively expensive.
But foodies cannot resist their love for lobsters, so sales are still very high, especially at night market stalls like this.
Gong Liu nodded and said, "Let's have one."
Seeing that Kong Liu ordered dishes without asking the price, and seeing the luxury bag that Gu Chenxi placed on the stool, the proprietress guessed that the two were not short of money, so she continued to recommend: "The pickled pepper ginger bullfrog is also delicious, sour and spicy, cooked in a dry pot, the more you eat, the better it tastes. We also have beef pot and charcoal grilled lamb..."
The dishes recommended by the proprietress were mostly big dishes, but Gong Yoo didn't order all of them. After all, the two of them couldn't finish so much. They ordered a lobster, a frog, and a serving of grilled oysters. They also ordered fried rice as a staple food, and a large bottle of coconut milk. That was about it. If they ordered too much, it would be a waste if they couldn't finish it.
It cost more than 200 yuan to order all these. In Zhonghai, this price is not very expensive, but in the university town, this price is really not cheap.
After all, the customers are all college students, and the average cost per person is over 100 yuan, which is not cheap for college students.
Although the price is not cheap, the portion is quite large. The lobster is served in a small iron basin, which is full to the brim with various side dishes. The boss said that there are three or four kilograms of lobster alone.
The young ginger bullfrog is served in a dry pot, which is cooked on an alcohol stove underneath. It is bubbling with steam, and when it is served on the table, the sour and spicy taste of pickled peppers hits you in the face.
There were six big oysters, with a lot of minced garlic and chili peppers, and a little bit of vermicelli. These six big oysters cost only 40 yuan.
Not to mention the fried rice, which is a huge portion, enough for three or four people.
After the two looked at each other, they said almost at the same time: "Have you finished eating?"
The answer is definitely not enough.
So, before starting to eat, Gong Yoo asked the boss for three take-out boxes and put a small portion of the lobster, bullfrog and fried rice into each box.
After finishing everything, Kong Yoo took out his phone and @ all members in the dormitory group.
Gong Yoo: "Don't go to bed too early. I'll bring you some midnight snacks."
Wang Qi: "Tomorrow is the weekend, how can I go to bed early?"
Chen Zhirui: "I'm losing weight, Brother Kong doesn't need to take care of me anymore."
Du Hongyuan: "His share belongs to me!"
The lobsters in this season have soft, crispy and thin shells, which become crispy when fried in oil. When simmered in the spicy soup, the meat is soaked with the soup. They are even more delicious than the shrimps when they are on the market in large quantities - because the shells of lobsters when they are on the market in large quantities are relatively hard, and the soup cannot penetrate them easily, and the meat has no taste and needs to be dipped in the soup.
After eating two lobsters, Kong Yoo began to transform into a ruthless shrimp peeling machine. When he had peeled about half a bowl, Kong Yoo asked the boss for a bamboo skewer, skewered the shrimp meat full, and then soaked it in the soup.
"Well, eat it."
"Um?!"
Gu Chenxi, who was peeling shrimps in a gentle and serious manner, saw the lobster skewers that Gong Liu suddenly placed on her plate. Her eyes lit up and she asked with some surprise, "You peeled so many just now, all for me to eat?"
"if not?"
Gong Yoo smiled and said, "If I were to eat it myself, I would just use my mouth. Why would I peel them one by one with my hands?"
Gu Chenxi pursed her lips and said with a smile: "You can also peel it with your mouth, I don't mind, hehe."
Gong Yoo joked, "No, I despise you."
"How dare you look down on me? Catch him and shoot him!"
After Gu Chenxi finished speaking, he made a pistol gesture with his hand.
Gong Yoo cooperated very well and said: "Ah, I'm dead, poof~"
"Hahaha."
The way Gong Liu stuck out his tongue made Gu Chenxi laugh. She put the lobster skewers aside first, then handed her bowl to Gong Liu, saying, "Actually, I also peeled shrimps for you secretly - but I couldn't help but eat a little bit (very quietly)."
Gu Chenxi also peeled a small bowl of shrimps, but her shrimp peeling skills were not as skilled as Gong Liu's, and some of the shrimp meat was torn apart, so it looked ugly.
Gong Yoo always sees boys peeling shrimps for their girlfriends on the Internet, but he has never seen girls peeling shrimps for their boyfriends. This sudden surprise made him a little surprised and touched.
Gong Yoo deliberately used the translator's voice to tease, "Oh! My dear girlfriend is so beautiful and generous, thoughtful and sensible, my God! I feel like I'm dreaming to be able to talk about such a girlfriend."
"Go to hell." Gu Chenxi took off his disposable gloves, gently pushed Gong Liu and said, "By the way, isn't it the same as not peeling the shrimps?"
Kong Liu didn't understand what Gu Chenxi said, so he asked, "What do you mean?"
Gu Chenxi held up the lobster skewer and took a photo, saying, "Look, I help you peel the shrimp, and you help me peel the shrimp. In the end, we switch places. Isn't it like we worked in vain?"
Gong Yoo shook his head and said, "It can't be considered a wasted effort. Peeling the shrimp is secondary. The main thing is the thought behind it."
“It seems to be a roar as well.”
Gu Chenxi posted the photo of the lobster skewers to his Moments, with the caption:
"My boyfriend peeled my first lobster this year."
Comment area:
Shen Xia: "She left me working overtime in the small auditorium and ran out to eat crayfish by herself. She must be sad."
Linzhi: "@Du Hongyuan, do you know what to do? Be more sensible."
Zhou Xiaonan: "Lobster! Lobster! Oh, I like spicy food the best!"
Gong Liu glanced at Gu Chenxi's circle of friends, then he poured a few spoonfuls of chili soup on the lobster in the bowl - this would cover up the not-so-good-looking shrimp meat and make the photos look more photogenic.
After the filming, Gong Liu also posted a circle of friends, and the copy was similar to Gu Chenxi's:
"My girlfriend fed me my first lobster meal of the year."
His comments section:
Liu Dada Dada Piaoliang (mother): "I am so happy to have sex with my brother again."
Gong Yoo: "Mom, stop making trouble!"
Fashionable Lao Deng (grandfather): "What kind of food do you eat when you take your girlfriend out? I'll give you some pocket money so you can take your girlfriend out to eat something good."
【Ten million yuan has arrived at xx bank.】
Gong Yoo: "Grandpa, I'm not short of money. Also, who told you to change your online name to this? (crying with his hands covering his face)"
Fashionable Lao Deng (Grandpa): "Lao Sun (Grandpa Sun Yu) taught me. He said Xiao Yu (Sun Yu) told him that Lao Deng means a successful person who has reached the pinnacle of wealth in old age."
Gong Yoo: "@Sun Yu, you are done for."
Fenghuaxueyue (father): "Look at you, you post on Moments without blocking your parents. You are not as smart as I was back then."
Gong Yoo: “…”
