Chapter 622: Auntie Ke’s Disdain
Editor: Henyee Translations
The owner lived not far away. When he heard that someone wanted to buy the house, he immediately rushed over.
Gu Dajiang bargained with him, but the owner was very tight-lipped and refused to let go.
“Master Gu, you also know that the houses here are at this price. It’s not that I don’t want to give you a discount, but we can’t ruin the market, right? Besides, my house is indeed worth this price. To be honest, if it weren’t for the fact that I’m a little tight on money recently, I really wouldn’t have sold this house.”
Gu Yundong frowned. The weather was very hot, and she really did not have the patience to bargain. In the end, both sides took a step back and agreed on 1,400 taels.
After buying the house, Gu Yundong followed Gu Dajiang back to Aunt Ke’s house.
Aunt Ke’s house had already been tidied up. As soon as Gu Yundong entered, she saw Madam Yang, Tong Shuitao, and Gu Yunke squatting in the courtyard, dealing with the cicadas.
Gu Yundong was speechless.
When she was in the carriage, she had told the young lady how to prepare this thing, but she did not expect her to really do it as soon as they returned home. It seemed that it was almost done.
Only Aunt Ke stood in the room with a look of disdain and refused to approach.
Gu Yundong squatted down and took a look at the cicadas that Gu Yunke had handled.
Yes, very good. She took off their wings and removed their heads and tails, leaving only a little bit of meat the size of a thumbnail. It was quite clean.
The little girl looked up as if she was asking for praise. “Big Sister, did I do the right thing?”
“That’s right. You’re smart.”
The little girl immediately smiled in satisfaction. She turned around and worked even harder to prepare the rest of the cicadas.
Gu Yundong grabbed her hand and looked at it. The cicada’s feet had small barbs. Gu Yunke’s tender little fingers could easily be broken, but she was not afraid.
Looking at her tender hands, they were all red.
But when she met her expectant gaze, Gu Yundong could only smile helplessly and tap her forehead. “Alright, wash those first. Eldest Sister will cook them.”
The cicadas would only taste good if they were stir-fried. She poured oil, added ginger, onions, and garlic, and poured all the clean cicadas down. There was a tearing sound, and the sound was pleasant to the ears.
After a while, the fragrance exploded and instantly filled the entire kitchen.
When Shao Qingyuan and the others entered, the fragrance instantly entered their noses.
Ah Zhu followed the fragrance to the kitchen and was stunned when he saw the black cicadas. “What is this?”
“Meat.” Gu Yundong smiled.
Ah Zhu stopped asking. No matter what meat it was, it smelled delicious.
Therefore, when the two large plates of cicadas were served, Ah Zhu couldn’t wait to pick one up and stuff it into its mouth.
Gu Yundong reminded him, “Remove the outer shell.”
Ah Zhu hurriedly bit it open and dug out the meat inside. His eyes instantly widened.
“Delicious. What kind of meat is this? I’ve never eaten it before. It’s too delicious.”
Aunt Ke, who was at the side, said coldly, “That’s cicada meat. It’s the meat of the cicadas that are always so noisy on the tree. Worms.”
Ah Zhu was stunned. Ah Shu also looked at the two plates of black things in surprise.
Zheng Gang almost dropped his chopsticks.
Shao Qingyuan didn’t mind. He had actually eaten it before, but in the past, he had always roasted it and eaten it without cutting off the ends. Therefore, he always felt that it had a bitter taste. So cicadas could only be partly eaten? He had learned something new.
He quickly ate without any burden and even praised Gu Yundong. “It’s delicious.”
Then, Ah Zhu, Ah Shu, and Zheng Gang quickly reached their chopsticks into the plates…
