After eating, the servant bought the prawns Jonas bought.
There were two big pots of them and they did not know how much it weighed.
Bettany came over to take a look, and asked, "What are you doing with these?"
Jonas picked up the shrimp, and said casually, "Lilly said she wanted to have shrimp noodles,"
Bettany was stunned for a moment and looked at Jonas suspiciously.
Are you sure you want to make shrimp noodles? It's hard to make though.
Lilly sat on a bench next to him as she watched Jonas make prawn noodles.
The first step was to pick out the roe from the prawns. It was quite easy to do so, but it took Jonas a while to do so.
Jonas picked the roe for ten minutes, and all he could see was shrimp roe.
Lilly ran out and pulled Anthony who had just finished his meeting. She also grabbed Liam Edward Gilbert who was lying on the bed, and Blake who was reading something in the room to Jonas.
Eventually…
Her uncles, whose hands were shaking from doing a thousand push-ups this morning, were forced to pick the roe.
Everyone was busy in the kitchen.
There was a commotion as they used different utensils to pick out the roe. Such as bowls, basins, and plates.
Lilly also helped out, and after a while, Hannah, Zachary, Josh, and Drake joined them too.
Blake was fast and steady as Lilly admired him, "Daddy's so amazing!"
Blake replied, "Of course, I am," as Edward and the others stared at him with resentful eyes.
When Jean came out and saw this scene, everyone was dumbfounded.
Jean's elder brothers frowned, and Edward had a ferocious face.
Was it so painful to pick shrimp roe?
Lilly and Josh were very happy to pick the shrimp roe. The children did it more carefully than the adults.
On push-ups, Blake… Never mind, it was not worth mentioning.
Blake was confused.
There were many of them doing the same thing and it took about an hour to finish picking the shrimp roe.
"The next step is to peel off the shrimp." Jonas watched the video and said, "Peeling the shrimp..."
The brothers looked at the two pots of prawns and estimated that there were thousands of them, and they were speechless.
Why did Jonas have to pick this dish out of everything?
Jonas said softly, "Lilly said she wanted to eat shrimp noodles,"
He spread his hands and looked helpless, "There's also honeycomb and fresh salmon,"
Those are what Lilly wanted to eat.
The brothers who wanted to call all the servants over peeled off the shrimp shells.
Another hour passed.
The prawns were peeled.
Jonas, "We need to pick out the shrimp brains next,"
The brothers leaned closer and watched the video. The vlogger, Curtis dug out the brains of shrimp with a small spoon without any fancy equipment.
Everyone was astonished.
Was this something a human could do?
After the shrimp heads were boiled, they began to pick out the shrimp brains. They finally finished picking out the brains after more than an hour.
Lilly held up her hand and said, "Hey, my fingers are wrinkly!"
Hannah continued, "This is fun!"
Drake and Josh kept silent.
After picking out everything, Jonas picked up the pot, poured the shrimp roe into it, stir-fried it over low heat until it turned orange, and then took it out when it turned dark brown. The shrimp roe was ready.
Then, he prepared the shrimp. He boiled the peeled shrimp and added onion, ginger, and garlic to remove the fishy odor. He waited for the shrimps to turn red and took them out. The shrimp was ready.
He then put the remaining shrimp heads into the pan and stir-fried them to get the shrimp oil. The shrimp oil was also ready.
