Chapter 18: Killing the Fish
In the morning, my mother and I got up early to go to the supermarket to buy groceries. In the vegetable and fruit section of the supermarket, my mother was carefully picking vegetables, and I carried the basket next to me and helped my mother put the vegetables she picked into the basket. How long has it been since this kind of scene has passed. Watching my mother scoop the cucumber in her hand and compare it to each other, I just felt warm.
"Mom, let's just buy it, according to your picking, it is estimated that the supermarket is about to close." I grabbed two handfuls of cucumbers from my mother's hand and put them in the basket.
"You kid, you have to pick fresh food when you buy vegetables." After that, he reached out and pressed my head, then turned around and walked forward to buy fish again. I looked at the heavy basket in my hand and pouted. It seems that Zifeng's status in my mother's heart is about to catch up with me. I'm sorry. In fact, in my heart, he is also like a big brother to me, taking care of me a lot. Mom treated him like this, and I was actually quite happy in my heart.
When I got home, I put the dishes in the kitchen, my mother washed the dishes, and I prepared the fish. Killing fish is still very strange and scary to me. In the past, every time I ate fish, my mother made it, because I was afraid of the bloody scene, so whenever my mother killed fish, I never dared to appear in the kitchen. Now it's my turn to cāo knife, and I'm scared in my heart. The hand holding the knife was hesitant to make a move.
"Lulu, I'd better do it." Mom looked at me there and looked at the fish lying on the board for a long time, knowing that I was scared.
"No, Mom, you can rest, you're tired of buying so many vegetables this morning, or I'll come." After saying that, I mustered up the courage and stabbed the fish with all my might. The knife fell, but it didn't hit. Immediately I was deflated. My mother had no choice but to come over to pick up my knife, when the doorbell rang.
"Mom, go open the door, I can handle it here." The mother turned around, washed her hands, and walked out of the kitchen. Then I heard the sound of the door opening. I'm still in the kitchen wrestling with the fish.
"Poor fish, I'm sorry, don't blame me. You're already dead, and it won't hurt you if I stab you. Boy, I'm going to do it. Just as I closed my eyes and was about to make a move, Zifeng suddenly appeared at the door of the kitchen and startled me and almost threw the knife.
"Lulu, how can anyone kill a fish and say sorry to the fish." He stood there against the door, smiling at me. Beautiful eyes shine with gentle light.
"Ahem, Brother Zifeng, you're scared me to death." I clutched my chest and gasped.
He walked over with a smile, took the knife in my hand, neatly cut off the head and tail, cut the abdomen and scraped the scales, and divided five by two. This technique is skillful. I enjoyed watching it from the side.
"Brother Zifeng, do you often kill fish at home?"
"No, I haven't killed." He lowered his head and rinsed the dissected fish with water. The corners of the mouth are slightly raised.
"Then why does it look like it's very experienced, is this called talent? It's really worthy of being a doctor. I pursed my lips, agreeing with my thoughts.
"Fool, what kind of talent do you need to kill fish."
"Isn't it?"
"The key to killing fish is to overcome the fear in your heart and eliminate the nervousness, so that you can get up and down. Besides, it's all dead, why are you afraid of what he's doing, and he won't eat you. He turned his head and looked at me with a smile. I found that he really loves to laugh, and he is always so good-looking, and he smiles softly, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.
"Brother Zifeng, has anyone ever said that you love to laugh?" I tilted my head to look at him and asked him. I suddenly felt that I was in this situation, how could I look like a primary school student asking a teacher a question. Immediately straighten your head and look at him with a smile.
"Yes, of course. Someone else said that I became more smiling in front of Guo Xiaolu. He reached over and touched my head as he had done before, and I leaned behind me.
"Your hands." I pointed to his hand, which was still stained with fish scales.
"Oh, forgot. He withdrew his hand, looked at the scales on his hand, and smiled. Then I laughed silly and went over to scoop the scales off his hands one by one.
"Yo, what an adult, still playing." Mom walked in and saw the silly laughter of the two of us, and laughed at us as if she were her own children.
"Mom, you can rest, we're here. I'll call you when the meal is ready. "Mother looked at the two of us, the kitchen was already small, and one more person would be crowded. Mother had to go and rest, and leave this place to the two of us. Originally, I was talking about cooking for him, but I didn't expect him to do it later, so I started it.
