The preparation steps were completed, and the crabs and soybean husks had been steamed.

After being steamed, Xu Niannian first placed the soybean husks in cold water to chill.

Once the crab was steamed, Xu Niannian cracked open the shells, separated the crab meat from the inside, and didn’t miss out on the crab oil that had steamed out.

After removing everything, there was almost a small bowl of crab meat, and just by smelling it, Xu Niannian thought the fragrance was overwhelming.

After boiling water and cooking the rice for a while, Xu Niannian then poured the crab meat from the bowl into it.

The congee was also made with stream water.

Stream water can purify and separate the impurities of food, and eating such food is also good for the family’s health.

So Xu Niannian didn’t hesitate and directly used stream water.

Wait until the congee was ready.

To make the congee delicious, it was necessary to stir continuously; only in this way could the aroma of the rice and the ingredients be better fused into the soup.

Hence, Xu Niannian was more or less constantly by the stove.

As time extended, the pot of crab congee slowly exuded a deliciously fragrant and strong smell.

Then salt was added.

The crab meat itself was already very savory, so there was no need to add much other seasoning. Bringing out the most original flavor of the ingredients was the most tempting.

The rice, crab meat, and broth fully integrated together, just like a softened paste.

When finishing up, Xu Niannian sprinkled green onions on top.

The steaming hot congee met with the vibrant green onions, instantly bursting forth with an even more enticing aroma.

After the congee was ready, Xu Niannian quickly covered the pot with a lid.

Then she started making the cold dish.

The chilled soybean husks were wrapped with flour and a little salt before being deep-fried until crispy, then scooped out.

The cucumbers were cut into uniform strips about the length of a thumb, mixed with salt, soy sauce, white sugar, sesame oil, hot chili oil, as well as minced green onion and garlic. There was no oyster sauce, but there was soy, and Xu Niannian added a bit of it with vinegar.

Everything was stirred together. After the flavors were absorbed, she lifted out the cucumber strips and wrapped them with the previously fried soybean husks, also adding cilantro inside.

Her movements were quick, and it didn’t take much time even though she was wrapping them one by one.

After finishing, she placed them on a white porcelain plate, arranging them into a beautiful display.

Jin Yu had just returned from his morning run, smelled the aroma, and guessing it was his wife in the kitchen, immediately walked over.

At that moment, Xu Niannian was bending over arranging the dishes, with her ponytail hanging to the other side.

Jin Yu caught sight of the side not blocked by the ponytail.

His little wife was busy making breakfast there, her skin fair and bright.

Her clothes white, her skin even whiter.

Jin Yu stood in the doorway, resting his hand on the frame, the muscles in his arms bulging instantly.

His dark eyes held a smile, Jin Yu’s lips parted in a grin, ruefully charming as he blew a gust at his hair.

Xu Niannian felt someone at the doorway and immediately straightened up, seeing Jin Yu at the entrance, she annoyed, "How come you make no sound when you walk every time?"

"It’s because you’re too focused," Jin Yu replied, "Making breakfast, so diligent?"

"When have I ever not been diligent," Xu Niannian couldn’t help but retort as she playfully glared at him with her lovely apricot eyes.

Jin Yu clicked his tongue; this little fairy.

"Come here," he said in a husky voice.

Xu Niannian wouldn’t go over. He had just finished his run and was soaked with sweat all over. If she went over, she would definitely be caught in his embrace.

"You go take a shower first."

Oh, the little wife was showing disdain for him now.

Jin Yu saw the bright disdain in Xu Niannian’s eyes and chuckled, lifting his lips.

Glancing at the breakfast she had prepared, Jin Yu reminded her, "Make less in the future, everyone in our family loves to eat; they’ll be pestering you one after another."

He had married his wife to pamper her, not to have her do housework.

"I’m in a good mood," Xu Niannian said cheerfully, sticking her tongue out at him, "Hurry up and take a shower, then come out to eat."

Her witty and clever demeanor made Jin Yu’s heart itch.

In the end, he couldn’t resist, and still caught her for a kiss before going to shower.

Xu Niannian held her face, amused.

What to do, even when her Jin Gouzi was being a rascal, he was handsome.

Ever since Xu Niannian had married Jin Yu, she had let go of the restraints within herself, being true to her own heart.

In a few minutes, other family members started getting up one after another.

Jin Ruiyang had already returned to the base.

Jin Yu would also have to go back today.

Jin Ruibing was woken up early in the morning by the delicious smell.

So was Xu Qiang.

Smelling the enticing aroma, Xu Qiang’s nose seemed to stretch five meters long, almost wanting to reach from his room straight into the kitchen.

Jin Xiaoni and Xu Xiaoxia were also lured out of bed by the fragrance.

"What’s that smell, it’s so good?" Jin Xiaoni asked, rubbing her messy hair.

"I don’t know either," Xu Xiaoxia mumbled, rubbing her eyes.

Jin Ruibing: "What did Nanny Zhao make today?"

The four of them walked down from upstairs together.

Seeing that Elder Master Jin was already waiting at the dining table with a bowl, eagerly staring at the kitchen.

Jin Ruibing was startled, "Damn, why is grandpa up so early today?"

Following Elder Master Jin’s gaze, everyone looked into the kitchen in unison.

Just then, Jin Yu came out from the inside with a pot of crab congee. Jin Yu showered very quickly and after showering immediately came to help his wife.

Xu Qiang initially thought it was Jin Yu who had cooked the congee and exclaimed, "Cousin actually made congee for us?" His expression was full of disbelief.

Jin Yu’s congee was delicious, and the whole family knew it.

But to get Jin Yu to cook was almost as difficult as ascending to the heavens.

They had only managed to eat it once in a while.
