Chapter 402 The real big wave beauty
He Juanjuan shouted, "Old man, you're back just in time. I have work for you to do!"

? ? ? ?
Wang Kunhua stood at the kitchen door with two bags in his hands.

"Sister Xiu Lian, the way you call me is older than Lao Wang's." Chen Hui smiled helplessly.

"What's going on? I just went out for a while, and when I came back I turned into an old man?" Wang Kunhua looked at the three people in confusion.

"It's all your fault. I spoke without even thinking."

He Juanjuan smiled and patted Huang Xiu Lian, then explained the situation to Wang Kunhua.

Wang Kunhua shook his head and pointed at Huang Xiulian, saying, "She is not a good person. She calls her own old man "brother" and teaches others to call her "bad old man."

He Juanjuan and Wang Kunhua burst into laughter, teasing Huang Xiulian for being so clingy at her age.

Huang Xiulian tried to stop this one but couldn't stop that one.

The whole terrace could be heard filled with her shouting “Hey ya! Hey ya!”

Chen Hui watched the excitement for a while, then walked over and asked, "Brother-in-law Wang, what good things did you say you brought back?"

"Hey, Wen Jing picked it for me."

"See if you can use it. If not, it's fine to cook fish with it."

Wang Kunhua said this and opened one of the bags to show Chen Hui.

In addition to lemon leaves, there is also a small handful of fresh perilla leaves.

"The basil smell is too strong. I really can't use it today."

As Chen Hui spoke, he took out the lemon leaves that were pressed underneath the perilla leaves.

After washing, I put it in front of my nose and smelled it. I could smell a little bit of perilla scent, so I scooped another bucket of water to soak it.

Then he took the clean clothes and turned around to ask, "Sister Juanjuan, where can I go to change clothes more conveniently?"

"Just change here, I think it's quite convenient." Huang Xiu Lian joked.

"You're a female hooligan, trying to take advantage of a young man."

He Juanjuan joked and took Chen Hui to an empty room on the first floor to change his clothes.

Xiao Zhang washed all the vegetables he bought.

Following He Juanjuan and Huang Xiulian, I cut all the vegetables that needed to be cut.

Chen Hui and Wang Kunhua worked together to move all the needed chairs to the terrace.

Based on the previous experience, I prepared two different sashimi dipping sauces.

Take out the soaked lemon leaves and smell them again.

Make sure the smell of the perilla is soaked away.

Remembering that he hadn't prepared any ice cubes, he shouted to He Juanjuan, "Sister Juanjuan, go get some ice cubes!"

"Do I need to go out and get ice cubes?"

"You may not have other things you want, but we have ice cubes! We have as much as you want."

He Juanjuan found a large basin and handed it to Chen Hui, then took him to a corner of the living room. "Look, this is the new freezer I bought, specially for storing ice cubes!"

"Buy a freezer specifically for ice cubes?"

"It's so luxurious. Is this the happiness of rich people?"

Chen Hui said with a smile as he skillfully lifted the top cover and pushed open the bottom cover.

There were no ice trays at that time, so I put the boiled and cooled water in a bowl, placed the dumplings one by one in it and froze them.

"When will Boss Xu arrive?" Chen Hui asked.

"The last time they called, they said it would be around 11:30, so it's only been about ten minutes," said He Juanjuan.

It's very hot now.

Ten minutes or so is just enough time for the ice to melt to a state where it is easier to break.

Chen Hui nodded and took out a dozen bowls.

He closed the freezer door and said, "This should be enough."

"Have you used a freezer? You seem very skilled at it." He Juanjuan chatted casually.

Chen Hui shook his head. "I can't afford a freezer, and the electricity in the village can't provide it. I just saw other people using it, and it's not complicated."

As the two chatted towards the kitchen, there was a knock on the door.

"We're here!? So fast?" He Juanjuan said with a smile and went to open the door.

"We're here? So soon!?"

Chen Hui looked at the bowl of ice in the basin and sighed. He strode into the kitchen and called Xiao Zhang to quickly boil a pot of hot water.

I can't wait for them to dissolve naturally, so I have to give them some extra warmth. "Is Boss Xu here?" Wang Kunhua said, and without waiting for Chen Hui to answer, he hurried away.

"Hot water is available!"

"For making tea, boiling soup, and washing crabs. I've boiled several pots." Xiao Zhang said, pointing to a row of thermos bottles next to the kitchen.

Chen Hui took out the ice bowl first.

Pour some cold water into the large pan.

While pouring boiling water in, test the temperature with your hand and adjust the water to about 40 degrees.

Then put ice bowls in to thaw.

Look at Huang Xiu Lian fiddling with flowers and plants at the open-air table.

I was already at a loss, and when I heard that everyone had arrived, I became even more anxious.

"Sister Xiulian, you have too much."

Chen Hui stepped forward and took away a few of the flowers, some of which had leaves that were too large and too eye-catching.

"Eh?! It looks much better this way!"

"Chen Hui, how do you know this?" Huang Xiu Lian asked in surprise.

"This is it!"

Chen Hui smiled and remembered a flower shop owner he dated when he was middle-aged.

It's the boss! Not the boss lady!
There are some things that you don't need to learn specifically; you will always understand them if you see them more.

"I don't understand this, I just thought these would be useful for the plating later so I took them away."

As Chen Hui spoke, he placed the flowers and plants he had taken away on the edge of the long table.

"It turns out that a blind cat has caught a dead mouse. I was wondering, a boy like you can actually arrange flowers."

Huang Xiulian had just finished speaking.

He Juanjuan and Wang Kunhua came in with Boss Xu and their big-wave confidante.

"Xiao Chen, they said you got something I've never seen before for me today?" Boss Xu asked loudly.

"Hello!"

The confidante waved her hand and greeted Chen Hui and Huang Xiu Lian.

She twisted her slender waist and naturally moved closer to Boss Xu.

"Hello, wow! Boss Xu's friend is so good-looking!"

"Compared to her, we are too embarrassed to see anyone."

It's not just men who like looking at beautiful women.

Women like it very much, too.

After Huang Xiulian greeted him, her eyes were directly fixed on the other person.

Not only her, but He Juanjuan who was following behind couldn't help but steal a few glances at her.

"Hello there!"

Chen Hui smiled and nodded, taking a quick glance.

She is very beautiful and has a bold style of dressing.

It is a real big wave.

His attention was immediately diverted, and he smiled and said to Boss Xu: "Brother Xu has seen all kinds of good things, this is just an ordinary crab."

Um! ?

The confidante looked at Chen Hui in confusion.

This young man in his twenties, full of vigor and vitality, was too calm when he saw himself.

Not only did he not marvel at his own beauty like others, he didn't even look at it for a second.

"Crab?! They didn't say it was a crab? How rare can a crab be?"

Boss Xu said this and followed Chen Hui to the water tank.

When he looked down, his face changed and he exclaimed, "It's this big!? I've never seen that before."

He Juanjuan and Wang Kunhua smiled at each other without saying anything.

When her confidante saw it, she couldn’t hide the surprise on her beautiful face.

Looking at Chen Hui, he asked questioningly, "Did you catch this from the sea? Are you kidding me, young man?"
