บท 1607: I'll Shell It for You

As if he was interested and liked listening to whatever Shi Xiaoya had to say.

"Okay." Han Zhuoling pinched the crayfish with two fingers, looking like an attentive student.

"Like this. First you remove the head. You see the three segments at the tail? Remove the one in the middle." Shi Xiaoya's fingers moved as she spoke, showing Han Zhuoling after she took off the shell. "See, the vein can be removed at the same time."

Han Zhuoling followed her directions, and the black vein was indeed removed along with the tail.

"Then peel the shell on top, which reveals a portion of the meat," Shi Xiaoya instructed as she held the crayfish between her fingers. "Pinch the remaining two shell segments near the tail like this, and voila! A whole crayfish ready to eat."

The three steps were far easier than if one slowly shelled it.

The crayfish had a hard shell, and if he did as per usual, it would have been a long process.
