A stunning mermaid dressed in the 1980s, the whole family lined up to pamper her endlessly.

Chapter 25 Fighting
Yun Xiaowu was pleasantly surprised: "Could this be another nest of moon shells?"

"Never mind, let's dig!"

Moon shells are buried deep in the sand, and sometimes you can't find your way around while digging.

There are indeed moon shells here, but they're not clustered together; you have to look around.

While Yun Xiaowu and the others were searching for air vents, Yun Jiao had already dug out three large moon shells.

They eventually found eight moon shells.

It's getting late, I need to go back.

When they passed by the beach where they had encountered the turtle before, they found that the turtle had returned.

Yun Jiao ran over: "Turtle, what did you bring?"

The sea turtle dipped its head into the seawater and tossed something over.

Yun Jiao picked it up; there were no seashells or snails, but there was a large, bright yellow fish.

"Big yellow croaker!"

The famous yellow croaker, and such a large one at that, was caught by a sea turtle and brought to them!

"It's still fresh."

Yun Xiaowu picked up the fish and looked at it, his face showing surprise.

"It's a pity there's only one, but this big yellow croaker is huge, it must weigh at least five pounds!"

Large yellow croakers usually live in groups, and they're not cheap, costing four yuan per pound.

If you could catch a whole net full of big yellow croakers, you'd be rich!

"Turtle, you are a grateful turtle. I misunderstood you."

Yun Xiaowu was so happy that he kissed the sea turtle's smooth head.

Sea turtle: …………

It buried its head in the seawater and twisted wildly.

Yun Xiaowu was clearly being disliked.

This time the sea turtle really left, but as it headed towards the sea, it turned its neck and looked at Yun Jiao several times.

Yun Jiao waved her hand: "Once my family has a boat, I'll look after you then."

The turtle is a useful turtle; you can build good relationships with it.

The sea turtle plunged into the sea and disappeared.

They found something good again, the most valuable thing being the big yellow croaker, even though it was a gift from a sea turtle.

When they returned to the place where Shen Yunlian and the others were fishing, they found that it was quite lively there.

I could vaguely hear someone excitedly saying something.

"Mother, what happened over there?"

Shen Yunlian said enviously, "Someone found a big yellow croaker that washed ashore. It weighed two pounds."

The current price of large yellow croaker is four yuan per jin (500g), so two jin would cost eight yuan.

Yun Xiaowu said smugly, "What did I say? It's just a two-pound yellow croaker."

Shen Yunlian glared at him: "What are you saying? Then why don't you..."

Before she could finish speaking, Yun Xiaowu placed a bucket in front of them, inside which was a large yellow croaker.

It was really big, bigger than any yellow croaker they had ever seen before!

Shen Yunlian and Wang Mei's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

One second she was envious of someone else's good luck in finding a big yellow croaker, and the next second her son appeared in front of her with just such a big yellow croaker. It felt like a dream.

Shen Yunlian even pinched herself.

"It really isn't a dream."

"Quickly, quickly, cover the bucket with clothes."

Shen Yunlian directly stripped her son's clothes off and put the lid on the bucket.

It's hot outside, and there are plenty of boys with their shirts off, especially at the beach, so there's no worry about them catching a cold.

"Isn't this a good thing? Why hide it?"

He wanted to show off a bit.

"What do you know? We shouldn't flaunt our wealth. Building a house and buying a boat soon is already enough to attract attention. If people find out that we were lucky enough to catch such a big yellow croaker while sailing, there will always be some envious people eyeing it. It's always better to avoid trouble."

Actually, it wasn't just this yellow croaker; they also found several small green lobsters, grouper, and tiger bream a while ago. Their seafaring business is so good that some people are bound to be jealous of them.

I'm afraid of attracting the attention of petty thieves. "Let's go home quickly."

When they got home, they discovered that in addition to the large yellow croaker, there were also about two pounds of blood clams.

"You guys are so lucky!"

Yun Xiaojiu: "The big fish was brought by the turtle."

They all chimed in with their own stories about the sea turtle delivering fish.

They even gave us a jellyfish as a gift.

"Jellyfish? You didn't get close, did you? Those things are poisonous."

"No."

Wang Mei said, "Take the fish and sell them first, then you can play at home by yourselves."

"and many more."

Shen Yunlian picked out the eight moon shells: "Let's keep these at home to eat."

My daughter looked so pitiful with that envious look on her face.

They can't afford yellow croaker anymore, but they can still keep these shellfish.

Wang Mei also noticed Yun Jiao's pitiful, pleading expression and couldn't help but laugh.

"If we can catch a lot of yellow croaker in the future, we will definitely keep a few for ourselves to eat."

The children have suffered.

Yun Jiao was quite satisfied; it was good to be able to eat those few bright clams.

"I still want to eat the little white seal."

"Okay, okay, keep one of these too."

Yun Jiao was now completely satisfied.

Shen Yunlian and Grandma Yun were cooking at home, while Wang Mei took the seafood to sell.

Once the adults weren't paying attention to them, Yun Xiaowu and the others immediately grabbed Yun Jiao and ran outside.

Staying at home is out of the question; that would be so boring.

"Let's go, let's go play marbles."

His marble-playing skills have improved tremendously, and this time he's determined to show off in front of all his friends.

However, they had bad luck and ran into Yun Zhuangzhuang, who didn't get along with them, and his cousin.

Yun Zhuangzhuang was a little afraid of Yun Xiaowu and his friends before because he had been beaten up by them.

But this time, it seems that with his cousin backing him up, he actually dared to provoke Yun Xiaowu and the others.

Because his cousin looked quite large and was several years older than Yun Xiaowu,
"Yun Xiaowu, Yun Xiaoliu, you're just tagalongs! If I buy glass marbles, you buy them too!"

Yun Xiaowu wasn't going to tolerate him and immediately retorted with a curse.

"You're really shameless, aren't you? Just because you own the glass marbles doesn't mean we can't. Yun Zhuangzhuang, do you want to fight?!"

Yun Zhuangzhuang hid behind his cousin and said fiercely, "You think I'm afraid of you? See this? This is my cousin. He's the Golden Horn King!"

Cousin Yun Zhuangzhuang glared fiercely at Yun Xiaowu and the others.

"Ha! You call yourself the Golden Horned King? Then I'm the Great Sage Equal to Heaven!"

They argued and argued, and somehow they ended up fighting.

Cousin Yun Zhuangzhuang was a few years older than Yun Xiaowu and Yun Xiaoliu, and he was also much bigger, so Yun Xiaowu would be at a disadvantage if he fought him alone.

But what can he do when he has so many brothers?

Although Yun Xiaoliu was usually a bit lazy, when he saw his brother being beaten, he rushed over headlong and the two brothers ganged up on their cousin Yun Zhuangzhuang.

Yun Xiaoqi and Yun Xiaoba also went to help.

Yun Jiao was furious when she saw Yun Zhuangzhuang picking up stones and preparing to throw them at her brother.

He rushed over, jumped up, and slapped Yun Zhuangzhuang across the face.

Yun Zhuangzhuang was stunned by the beating.

"Yun Jiao, you little bitch, how dare you hit me!"

Yun Jiao slapped her again.

Yun Xiaojiu rushed over and headbutted Yun Zhuangzhuang in the stomach, knocking him over.

The two children grabbed Yun Zhuangzhuang and gave him a good beating.
