Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt this time, it was only around two in the afternoon. Charlie had thought that his wife, Claire, would not be done until about three or four o'clock in the afternoon. So, he figured that he would go hfirst before going to pick her up when she was almost done.
However, unexpectedly, when Charlie arrived at home, his wife, Claire, his father-in-law, Jacob, and his mother- in-law, Elaine, were all already busy in the kitchen.
When Charlie saw that Claire was actually at home, he asked in surprise, "Wife, when did you chome? Why didn't you tellso that I could go and pick you up?" Claire smiled and said, "I sped up my progress a little. I arrived hat two o'clock in the afternoon. I cback earlier because I wanted to prepare a birthday dinner for you today." Elaine was holding a huge king crab with both of her hands. As she placed it into the steamer, she smiled as she said to Charlie, "My good son-in-law, I'll prepare a big feast for you tonight. Look at this big crab. One of these costs more than three thousand dollars!" When Claire, who was aside, saw that Elaine was about to steam the crabs, she hurriedly said, "Oh, Mom! You cannot steam the crab now. It's not even three o'clock yet and it is still a long tbefore dinner! If you steam the crab now, it will not taste good anymore when it is tfor dinner!" Elaine asked in surprise, "Then why did you cback so early and ask us to start cooking?" Claire said helplessly, "We have to do all the preparatory work first. Brush the crab clean and put it inside the bucket. It is also the sfor the other ingredients. We should prepare all the ingredients for the stir-fry and cooking, and then, we can start cooking when it's almost tfor dinner to ensure the taste." Elaine said resentfully, "Sigh. I thought that we would just start cooking now. Aren't we steaming the crab in the pot directly? Do we still need to wash it first?" "Of course we have to wash it first." Claire said, "At the very least, take a brush and brush the dirt off the surface of the crab before rinsing it with water a few times." Elaine curled her lips. "I don't dare to brush this thing. It's covered in thorns. If it were to prickagain... I think it's better to let your father clean up the seafood instead." 3 As she spoke, she looked at Jacob before she commanded him, "Jacob, take the crab out from the steamer and wash it. Remember to wash it clean!" Jacob could not help but retort, "I still have other things to do. You should do it yourself." Elaine said angrily, "Stop talking nonsense. Hurry up and clean up the crab. Otherwise, you should not even think of eating the crab at all tonight!" Jacob asked discontentedly, "What are you going to do if you wantto clean up the crabs?" Elaine casually said, "I'm going to peel sgarlic." After she was done speaking, Elaine grabbed a few pieces of garlic before she grabbed a stool, sat nee the corner, and began peeling the garlic in front of the trash can.
Jacob was a little resentful, but he did not dare to argue with Elaine. So, he took the crab out carefully before he took it to the sink to clean it. 3 When Charlie saw this, he spoke up, "Dad, it's better forto clean the crab instead." Claire hurriedly said to Charlie, "Husband, you're the birthday boy. So, you shouldn't be going into the kitchen today. You should go outside and watch television in the living room. The cake delivery person will be here in a short while.
