"Dilute the noodles, add some salt, chop the onion and ginger, and add a little pepper and mustard..."

Under Chen Xu's command, several young maids divided their work. Some kneaded the dough, and some picked fresh wild onions and garlic, cut them into fine powder and added them to the basin, and soon made a large basin of batter.

The oil pan next to it had already been set up, and a guard gustled into the pan and found a full five or six kilograms of Qinghe tea oil. At this time, it had already heated up and started to emit a slight blue smoke.

Chen Xu tied his clothes randomly, then rolled up his sleeves, picked up a pair of big bamboo chopsticks with two feet long, picked up a crab and put it in the batter and wrapped it in the batter, and then threw it into the oil pan.

"Puff~~"

As a golden bubble rolled in the oil pan, the thrown crab quickly floated up, and at the same time, a scent of onions, garlic and pepper was emitted.

"Brother, I want to eat it, I want to eat it!" Xing'er was not interested in chicken wings and was already standing next to the oil pan looking at her.

"Give me the bamboo scooter!" Chen Xu used chopsticks to turn the crabs in the oil pan and fry them for another half-minute. A little maid next to him quickly handed over a semicircular scooter net woven with bamboo silk.

After the bamboo scooter was taken down, a fried golden crab was quickly picked up, and gently shook it on the oil pan for a few times to drain the oil drops. Then the first fried crab in Daqin was officially released.

"Crack~" Chen Xu reached out and broke off a crab leg and put it in his mouth. He put a scent of pepper, green onion, ginger, garlic and mustard into his mouth. It was crispy when chewed, and it was almost no different from the taste that he had eaten when he was a child. Even because of tea tree oil, the taste was even more fragrant.

"It's delicious, take Xing'er to eat!" Chen Xu nodded while eating, obviously satisfied with the food he suddenly found when he swam in the river.

"Thank you brother!" Xing'er was not afraid of being hot, so she lifted the fried crab with one leg, then sat on the mat and ate it.

"Wow, it's delicious. Brother, hurry up and fry more, I want to eat..." Xing'er shouted while eating. Chen Xu glanced at Xing'er's round face and chubby little arms and legs, feeling that she had done something wrong.

The little girl is only nine years old, but after more than a year of delicious food and drink, she is now showing signs of growing into a small meat ball. Moreover, the little girl has a paranoid fever about food. If she continues to raise this way for three or five years, Chen Xu is worried that she will really become a meat ball in the future. It is probably difficult for a girl to get married if she is too fat.

When Niu Dashi thought of the little girl getting married, he suddenly came out of his mind.

Forget it, don’t think too much. Anyway, I want to marry Niu Dashi. If Niu Dashi dares to dislike him, he will definitely break his legs.

So Chen Xu felt relieved in an instant. He put the crabs wrapped in the noodle sauce into the oil pan one after another. The bubbles rolled in the oil pan, and the oil pan was densely filled with layers. He used chopsticks to tweak and fry them for more than a minute. After the noodle sauce outside began to brown, he picked them up with bamboo scoops and put them in a large plate next to him.

"Come and eat one to see how it tastes?"

Chen Xu threw down the chopsticks, held one leg and picked up a crab and blew it a few times with his mouth. It didn't feel too hot, so he broke off one leg and started to eat it.

Several young maids who had been busy for a long time also laughed and picked up a crab, yelling while eating, and were obviously conquered by the Marquis's food that turned into magical and wonderful food, and they yelled at the same time.

"You fry all the remaining crabs!" After Chen Xu finished the order, he walked to Chen Jiangshi and Shui Qingrou with a plate and sat on the grass. "Mom, Qingrou, you can eat a few together, it's very delicious!"

Chen Jiangshi and Shui Qingrou also picked up one by one and tasted it carefully.

"Husband, it's really delicious!" Shui Qingrou's eyebrows were instantly praised.

"Hehe, that's right, I ate a lot when I was a child..." Chen Xu stopped quickly before he finished speaking, and then secretly looked at Chen Jiangshi. Chen Jiangshi really heard it, stopped and looked up at his son and said, "Xu'er, why don't I remember making fried crabs for you? Our family has no oil, and salt is short of every day..."

"Uh, mom, that's what I remember wrongly. Maybe I got it in my dream!" Chen Xu quickly laughed dryly and covered up.

"My husband must have remembered it wrong, but who would have thought that crabs can still be eaten? It takes some courage to eat it!" Shui Qingrou said with a smile.

"Who said no, the way of heaven is natural, all things are born together, and the water is running on the ground flying in the sky and swimming in the soil. Except for tables, benches and houses, I feel that I can't eat everything, you can fry, cook and fry it and taste it..." Chen Xu said while eating.

"Hehe~ You also said that the senior brother is a big foodie. I think my husband is a real big foodie. He eats everything. If it is spread, people will definitely be laughed at if it is heard!" Shui Qingrou covered her mouth and smiled slightly trembled.

"Is this a breed that I am afraid of laughing at by others? Who dares to laugh at me? I will study his book as soon as I go to the emperor..."

"My benefactor, can you go too far?" Yu Wuya walked over with a few grilled skewers in his hand, ate with oil, and sat next to Chen Xu and said while eating.

"Don't you eat crabs?" Chen Xu curiously handed the plate in front of Yu Wuya.

"There are all claws, there is no meat at all, it looks bad!" Yu Wuya shook his head and continued to eat the skewers.

Chen Xu curled his lips and said, "Everything needs to be tasted before you know it. Just like fermented tofu and stinky tofu, how can you know if it is delicious if you don't eat it? You said the chicken claws were not delicious at the beginning!"

"Hey, my husband, what you said makes sense!" Yu Wuyayan obediently picked up a crab and bit off a few legs, then shook his face slightly and stuffed a few skewers into Chen Xu's hand, hugged the plate into his arms and said while eating: "Woooooo, my husband said it well, it's really delicious, the pepper is fragrant and spicy, not inferior to braised chicken feet, it's delicious..."

Chen Xu ate the skewers with laughter and crying and said, "This kind of small river crab is actually just crispy. The most delicious thing is a big crab produced in the sea. It has a lot of paste and is full of meat. Whether it is made of garlic or spicy, it is extremely delicious!"

Yu Wuya shook his head while eating: "The sea is not a small river ditch of the Wei River. I went to Zhejiang and Langya with my master in my early years. The sea was vast and unfathomable. Even near the coast, there were reefs everywhere. Once the wind blew, huge waves were surging. Not to mention catching crabs, life was hard to save. On the same day at the beach of Langya, I saw with my own eyes that a fishing boat was overturned by the tide, and the fishermen on the boat were also caught in the sea water and disappeared. Therefore, no matter how delicious the sea crabs are, they must have a life to eat!"

Chen Xu thought for a while and did not refute that the fishermen of this era were still in an extremely primitive state. The fishing boats were rough and small, and the fishermen did not have good tools. The harpoon nets were very simple. As for life jackets and oxygen cylinders, it was even more impossible. Once they capsized down, there was almost no dead end in the waves. There was no rescue in the vast sea. Therefore, ordinary fishermen would never catch crabs and small fish and shrimps when they entered the sea, but instead caught precious seafood such as sea cucumbers and abalone. If they ventured to dive into the sea, they would definitely pick pearls, giant clams, corals and other treasures.

"I can't eat sea crabs in fact, there is another kind of hairy crab in Zhejiang that is also very delicious. There is a Taihu Lake near Wuxian, which was called Zhenze in ancient times. It produces a huge hairy crab. Steamed and dipped in ginger vinegar is delicious. The meat is tender and juicy. It is much better than this dry river crab. Hiss..." Chen Xu said, and he couldn't help swallowing.

"Gudong~" Yu Wuya, who was eating crabs, also followed the Adam's apple, and then put down the crab in his hand without any taste, looking at Chen Xu with a depressed face, "My benefactor, don't talk about more delicious food next time you eat delicious food..."

"Hehe, I just told you that there are so many delicious foods in the world. You have to be brave enough to try it, such as this little crab. If it weren't for me, you would never have eaten a bite in your life, and it's like this thing..." Chen Xu picked up a snail thrown from the grass from the grass.

"I can't take it, benefactor, can you eat this thing that is even more disgusting than insects?" Not only Yu Wuya's eyes widened, Shui Qingrou and Chen Jiangshi looked at a snail that was so dark in Chen Xu's hand. They felt that the crabs they had just eaten were crawling around in their stomachs.

I won’t mention the water is gentle. I was born in a wealthy family since I was a child. The food is definitely good. I practiced in Lushan and I also have people to offer the food I eat, so it will definitely not be too bad.

Although Chen Jiang's family has been poor and hungry, he will never eat insects. As long as he thinks about how to make wild vegetables and fruits, he can still satisfy his hunger. There are snails everywhere in the riverside canals, and I have never heard of anyone taking them to eat them.

"Hehe, I haven't eaten it before. If I tell you that it's delicious, you will definitely not believe it?"

Yu Wuya, Shui Qingrou and Chen Jiang both nodded together.

Chen Xu stood up, and at this time, a group of children playing in the water were also attracted by the smell of barbecue and fried crabs. They surrounded each other with bare barely sucking in the surroundings, but they didn't dare to come over and could only watch.

"Hey, come here~" Chen Xu waved to the children, and immediately three naked little kids ran over. The little birds under their crotch were so cold that they shrank like little earthworms, and they all sucked saliva and looked at Chen Xu together.

"You go and tell everyone that each person will give you two fried crabs, but after eating, you will help me touch these snails in the river. You need a big one, but not too small ones! You can also give more crabs if you catch more..."
