Chapter 131: Guest
In a community in the center of Beidu.
Wang Qing was holding a bottle of red wine he bought along the way, and under Zhang Zifeng's gaze, he rang the doorbell of Huang Lei's house.
"You'll be more normal later, don't let them see it." She was still whispering to Wang Qing that she was nervous about these things along the way.
Looking at her helplessly, Wang Qing spread his hands, "I've always been normal, okay? But you, can you not be so nervous and just go to a friend's house for a meal in an ordinary way."
"Where is normal...you...can you stop speaking so gentle?"
Before Zhang Zifeng could finish his words, the door had been opened from the inside, and she quickly stopped her mouth.
A girl who was about thirteen or fourteen years old stuck her head out, first looked at the two of them carefully, and then said hello politely, "Brother Wang Qing, Sister Zi Feng."
"You are Duoduo, it's your first meeting." Wang Qing nodded to her politely.
"For the first time we met, please come in." Huang Duoduo, who was very mature, nodded to Wang Qing, opened the door completely, and asked them to come in.
Following Huang Duoduo into the door, Wang Qing was wearing slippers while observing Huang Lei's home. After coming from the aisle to the living room, the view was widened.
The house looks quite small, with three or four hundred square meters, three floors above and below, similar to Wang Qing's small villa.
But the location is different after all. It is a suburb of Cantonese City. Huang Lei's house is in the center of a metropolis, and the price of this money is completely incomparable.
Moreover, the decoration is also very stylish, and the lifestyle is much richer than that of Wang Qing's family. It can be seen that the hostess of this family is very careful to clean up the house.
Thinking of the hostess, Wang Qing saw a slender woman in simple clothes standing at the entrance of the aisle, holding a baby in her hand, as if waiting for them.
"Sister Li." Zhang Zifeng shouted obediently first.
Wang Qing also called out according to her call. The woman in front of him was Huang Lei's wife Sun Li, and the girl who led them was Huang Lei's daughter Huang Duoduo.
Sun Li nodded to them gently, "Come in quickly, your teacher Huang knew you were coming in the afternoon, so she quickly went out and bought some food. She is busy fiddling with supper in the kitchen."
Then, she saw the things Wang Qing was carrying, and looked at them with some embarrassment, "You guys are..."
"I'm here for the first time and I don't know what to bring. My sister said that Teacher Huang occasionally likes to drink two glasses, so I bought a bottle of red wine." Wang Qing explained while putting the gift box containing the red wine in his hand on the table.
It is definitely not the first time Zhang Zifeng has been here, but he is the first time he is visiting and always has to bring something.
"You are too polite, Teacher Huang knows it's going to be unhappy." Sun Li looked at him distressedly, "Don't bring anything next time, as long as the person comes."
Nodding with restraint, Wang Qing did not sit directly in the living room, but followed Zhang Zifeng to Huang Lei's kitchen first.
When I opened the glass door of the kitchen, a middle-aged man with a little fat figure was trying hard to catch a few big crabs by the stove. It was impossible to tell that this was an actor in the entertainment industry, but he looked a bit like a housewife.
Huang Lei’s appearance is a bit different from what he saw in a beautiful life last time, but it looks more realistic.
"Teacher Huang." Wang Qing shouted politely.
"Yo, here we come."
Huang Lei, who was still busy, heard someone calling him, and turned around and found that they were standing at the kitchen door. He smiled and said, "Okay, my brother brings my sister to visit. You can sit outside for a while. I will put these crabs down and steam them and then eat."
Wang Qing lifted up his sleeves and said, "Then I'll help."
Sun Li, who was following behind them, heard his words and said unexpectedly: "Does Xiaoqing still cook?"
"Yes, Sister Li, my brother is so good at cooking. I think many chefs are not as delicious as my brother." Zhang Zifeng was very modest to himself, but he didn't keep it at all when he praised Wang Qing.
"No need, you are a guest, how can you ask the guest to help?" Huang Lei quickly shook his head and refused, wanting to say something, but he stopped looking at Sun Li who was following them.
"It's okay, Teacher Huang." Wang Qing insisted.
This was the first time I met Sun Li, and I came here as a junior. To be honest, if I went to the living room, he really didn't know how to chat with the women.
So instead of being with them, he felt more comfortable chatting with Huang Lei in the kitchen and cooking.
"Sister Li, let my brother stay here. Take me to visit at home. I have been thinking about whether to design myself or not recently, and renovate the home..." Zhang Zifeng glanced at him and cooperated to pull Sun Li away.
Seeing the two of them leaving, Wang Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
"Oh...you..."
Seeing his wife leaving, Huang Lei said to Wang Qing in distress: "Xiaoqing, you said that if you make it better than me later and they all go to eat what you cook, then I will be embarrassed."
"You'd better go to the living room and wait, I'll just come here."
Hearing his words, Wang Qing stopped his movements of closing the kitchen door. He didn't realize that Teacher Huang Lei was quite proud of his wife and children.
"Or...I'll help you process the ingredients?" Wang Qing scratched his head awkwardly and expressed his concerns, "The main thing is that a few of them, I don't know what to say about me in the past."
When Huang Lei heard his explanation, he laughed and did not let him leave again, "Okay, please help me deal with this crab, I'll prepare the sauce."
"no problem."
After catching the crab skillfully, Wang Qing glanced at the crab in his hand and fiddled with it for a while, he already knew the variety of this crab. "This blue crab is big enough."
As he said that, he also pinched the crab shell with his hands, "It's quite hard, the meat inside should be very full. Is this from outside?"
"You can see this?"
Next to him, Huang Lei was shocked by his words.
"It's easy to recognize. The green crabs in our country are not so big because of the growth area. The heaviest one is only more than one pound, and they are not so hard." Wang Qing also smelled it with a close look, "There is also the odor of dead fish. It must be the green crabs growing in the cruel environment outside the sea."
"Stir... smelly? Then was I cheated by the seller?" Huang Lei stopped the action, but he didn't smell it when he bought it.
Although he often cooks, he is not a specialist chef after all, and he rarely cooks seafood at home.
"No, just deal with it." Wang Qing shook his head, "Teacher Huang, how do you plan to cook this crab?"
"Uh...I'm going to add some sauce to steam it. What do you think?" Huang Lei asked humbly.
From the wonderful life he already knew that Wang Qing was good at cooking, and from the fact that he had just easily recognized the crab varieties, it seemed that he was more professional than many chefs he had met.
This is a good opportunity to communicate.
"Fry it. If this kind of blue crab from outside the sea is fried, it is easier to remove the fishy smell of mud. If Sister Li and the others can eat spicy food, it would be nice to order chili peppers." Wang Qing said while rinsing these big crabs next to the faucet.
While washing, he also explained to Huang Lei, who had already stopped his work, "This kind of blue crab must be cleaned when making it, because they all grow in the intertidal zone and are very dirty, so you have to use a brush to brush off all the dirt on the entire shell, and slaughter the inside..."
