Chapter 182 [The octopus commission](1/3)

Chapter 182 [Octopus’s Commission]

The crayfish were bought at the vegetable market. They had green shells and were all fresh and vigorous.

I bought ten kilograms and put them in a basin at home. Chen Nuo took a brush and cleaned them one by one, then used scissors to cut the shrimp tails one by one, and then picked out the shrimp threads...

Well, this was Chen Yanluo's original plan.

Originally, he really wanted to cook it with his own hands. Cooking, it was fun to do it occasionally.

But after washing the ten kilograms of crayfish, he only trimmed the tails after three or five and became impatient.

I just refilled the plastic bag, went downstairs and ran to a restaurant at the entrance of the community, threw fifty yuan to the boss, and asked for help with the cooking.

They are all restaurants at the door. I have eaten there several times on weekdays, and the boss and Chen Nuo also know each other. After receiving the fifty yuan, he happily threw the bag of shrimps to the waiter in the store to get them.

The boss lit a cigarette, made tea, and chatted with Chen Nuo for a while. But within half an hour, the kitchen worker brought back a bag of cleanly cooked shrimps.

Not only were the shrimp lines cleaned, but the shrimp gills were also cut off. Before leaving, Chen Nuo also bought a pack of thirteen incense from the boss.

When I went back, I bought a few cans of beer at the convenience store at the entrance of the community, and took a bottle of orange juice and went upstairs.

When he got home, he put the thirteen-spice crayfish in the pot and started cooking it. Taking advantage of the time, Chen Nuo quickly made two more side dishes.

I bought two pieces of fat meat from the vegetable market, fried them in a pan, fried some fried vegetables, then boiled some peanuts and edamame in salt water, and threw in some spiced star anise, and it was done.

.

This little girl Nivell always wanted to go to the kitchen and watch Chen Nuo cooking. After being kicked out by Chen Nuo several times, she just stayed in the living room to talk to Xiao Zizi.

Chen Nuo turned on the range hood in the kitchen, holding a cigarette in his mouth and cooking with a shovel in his hand. Occasionally, he heard the chirping sounds of two girls, one large and one young, coming from the living room.

Hey, I don’t know how a foreign girl and a Chinese girl, one who doesn’t speak English and the other who speaks Chinese very poorly, can have such a lively conversation.

However, the crayfish was quite successful. After a large basin was served, the two girls ate and screamed.

Especially when Nivell looked at this athletic girl enjoying her food, Chen Nuo was really worried that if this girl stayed in China for a long time, she might become a chubby girl.

After eating two bowls of crayfish, Nivel finally had some self-control. Looking at the hill of shrimp shells in front of her, she sighed with regret and finally stopped.

"Actually, I haven't figured out one thing before." Nivel said slowly while looking at Chen Nuo.

"What?" Chen Nuo answered casually, then peeled off a shrimp tail, put the shrimp meat into his sister's bowl, then gave her a chopstick of green vegetables, and told Xiao Zizi: "Okay, the last one

! You can’t eat lobster. Children can’t eat too much of this. Eat some green vegetables and finish the rice.”

Xiao Yezi nodded obediently, stuffed the shrimp meat from the bowl into his mouth, then lowered his head and plucked the rice.

Nivel just looked at the brother and sister quietly.

"What do you mean by what you just said?" Chen Nuo then turned to look at Nivell.

"I never understood one thing before. You obviously have such great abilities, why do you want to stay in this city and be an ordinary-looking student?" Nivel shook her head: "The outside world is so big and exciting.

."

"Well, what next?" Chen Nuo nodded nonchalantly and continued to peel a shrimp. He peeled it very carefully. Not only did he peel off the pliers to eat the meat, but he even smelled the yellow off the shrimp head.

At this point, Nivel is not good. As a foreigner who eats shrimp, she will never learn Chen Nuo's ability to completely peel off a pair of crayfish pincers.

"I seem to understand a little better now." Neville said in a serious tone.

"Understand what?"

"Today, I saw your expression and emotion when you were buying groceries. I thought you seemed very happy."

"I was very happy to begin with." Chen Nuo quickly peeled off the shrimp tail and threw it into his mouth. He chewed it and said casually: "Why are you not happy in such a life?"

"Yes." Nivel nodded sincerely: "You are accompanied by your family, live together, buy ingredients together, cook together, and eat together. There are people who need you to take care of... This kind of life is the simplest.

of happiness.”

Chen Nuo glanced at Nivell.

Nivel shook her head: "I can't remember the last time I cooked with my own hands and sat down to eat with my family."

After a pause, Nivel frowned and said: "Even before my family members passed away, it has been a long time."

"Then what kind of life did you lead before?"

Nivell thought for a while: "My father is busy with the work of several of his foundations, and planning annual climbing goals with my mother, doing training, and flying to the world for field trips. And my sister... She is used to

She sets goals one after another for herself. She wants to be the best sports genius in the history of the Devon Hill family, so she always pushes herself very hard."

"In fact, there is no distinction between superior and inferior, and there is no distinction between right and wrong. It just depends on personal choice. If it were me... at least, I prefer the leisurely and simple life now."

"Well, I can see that you really enjoy it."

Chen Nuo picked up the beer can in front of him and motioned to Nivell.

Nivel also picked up the beer can and touched it with him, then raised her head and drank it in one gulp.

This was the second can she drank tonight. After finishing the drink, Nivel shook her head and said, "You said today that you wanted to ask me for help with something. What was it?"

"Oh, it's very simple." Chen Nuo smiled and said: "Your assistant plan for the reception team, don't stop it after school starts."

"Um?"

"In the future, I may still have some things to do and I won't go to school from time to time. Keep this name, and you will be able to cover me when I skip classes."

Nivel's eyes were a little strange: "Is this the case?"

"yes."

"I thought that for your girlfriend's father, you would ask me to give him more opportunities and provide him with more opportunities for promotion."

"Hahahaha!" Chen Nuo smiled, shook his head and said: "You don't understand. In education in China, teachers are the core competitiveness. In this school, Mr. Sun is the most outstanding teacher. I don't need to hire him.

What special treatment do you provide him? But you, if you hope that your investment can get a good return, you should take the initiative to recruit more talents like this."

Nivel's tone was a bit complicated: "So, you don't care at all and don't shy away from it. That Miss Sun is your girlfriend?"

"Of course." Chen Nuo nodded: "She is my girlfriend."

Nivel took a deep breath: "Aren't you afraid that I am very angry about this? I can ask my partner to fire that Mr. Sun tomorrow!"

"..." Chen Nuo glanced at this little girl, shook his head and said, "No, you are not a person with this kind of personality."

"..." Nivel was silent for a few seconds, and finally shook her head helplessly: "I am indeed not."

With that said, Nivel opened another can of beer and raised it: "Here, raise your glass!"

"Why raise a glass?"

"I wish you and your girlfriend will break up soon!"

Chen Nuo smiled.

He shook his head, but still touched the beer can with Nivell, but what he said was very clear: "Nivell, our fate in this life should stop at being friends or partners. With this glass of wine, I hope

You can adjust your mentality and feelings as soon as possible."

·

After dinner, it is unrealistic to expect a British noble lady to wash the dishes.

Nivel has never washed dishes in her entire life.

So leaving the two girls, one older and one younger, to continue communicating with gestures and clumsy language in the living room, Chen Nuo went into the kitchen to wash the dishes.

At around eight o'clock, Chen Nuo sent Nivelle away.

Standing at the door, Nivell exhaled: "I had a very happy meal today."

"Thank you for the compliment."

"I will do whatever you ask me to help you with."

"Same, thank you."

"But, I won't give up!" Nivel shook her head.

Chen Nuo frowned, but spread his hands: "Whatever you want."

People who engage in sports often have a perseverant character. Once they accept the truth, it is difficult to give up easily.

·

After leaving Chen Nuo's house, we went downstairs to the roadside, where Nivell's car was already parked and waiting.

After getting in the car, the driver sent by the education company drove steadily, but he felt strange in his heart because this young girl, sitting behind the car, was muttering to herself the whole way, not knowing what to say.

.

Before she even arrived at the hotel, Nivel had already made a phone call: "Teacher Li, please come to the hotel to see me immediately... No problem, I can pay you for overtime work."

When the car arrived at the hotel, Nivel went upstairs to her room. A Chinese language teacher she hired with a high salary had already arrived in advance and was waiting there.

This Teacher Li is a middle-aged lady who is also an excellent primary school Chinese teacher and is also very good in English. She was selected by Nivell through people from the education company. Nivell has been following this teacher for two semesters.

More than a week has passed.

Although he was called to the hotel so late, Teacher Li did not feel dissatisfied at all because of the high overtime pay.

"Teacher Li, I have a Chinese saying that I just learned today. I would like to ask you what it means."
