River dam, kitchen.
The time was drawing closer to noon.
Xue Yuantong was getting ready to steam crabs, while the twins secretly learned beside her.
"Place ginger slices on the steaming tray," Xue Yuantong counted, picking up a piece of ginger and placing it on the pile of crabs.
Unexpectedly, a crab immediately extended its claw and firmly clamped onto the ginger slice. The coordination between the ingredients was seamlessly perfect!
Xue Yuantong asked the two, "What do you call this?"
Chen Siyu pondered and answered, "A wife's self-defense instinct?"
Tongtong was confused, "What?"
Luckily, Chen Siyu had some conscience and didn't lead the children astray.
Xue Yuantong continued laying ginger slices on the crabs, and afterward, she covered the pot lid, adding ginger and cooking wine to the water. Steaming the crabs was not difficult at all.
Behind the stove, Jiang Ning was tending the fire.
