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

Chapter 40 Picking Shrimp
Yun Jiao turned around and skillfully tossed the sea centipede into her small bucket.

Then I saw my father and uncle standing behind me.

She tilted her head slightly: "Father, are the glutinous rice cakes ready?"

Seeing the Yunlin Sea and Yunlin River, whose small buckets were almost full of sea centipedes: …………

Why is she so calm?

"Hai, sea centipede?"

"It really is!"

Both of them stared at Yun Jiao in shock.

"You've caught so many in such a short time?"

Although sea centipedes look a bit ugly and disgusting, they are nutritious and delicious. The key is that they are hard to find, and the price at the collection points is quite good.

Jiaojiao discovered so many sea centipedes while playing.

Yunlinhe almost wanted to burst into laughter.

Their Jiaojiao is really good at doing big things quietly!

"Father, there's more here."

Yunlin Hai and Yunlin He didn't even have time to eat; they rushed over to catch them together.

Yun Jiao stopped grabbing the food and instead took the roasted glutinous rice cake her father handed her, sat down on a rock, and ate it in small bites.

While eating, I watched two adults catch sea centipedes.

Wow…

A sea turtle emerged from the seawater, carrying something black in its mouth.

He climbed over to Yun Jiao's side and threw the thing to her as well.

It's a sea urchin.

What a huge sea urchin!

"Any more?"

The sea turtle nodded, indicating that there was much more to come.

Yun Jiao stared at the sea, wanting to go in.

But my father and uncle would definitely not allow it.

Her eyes darted around, wondering if she could ride a sea turtle back home.

"Go and catch a few more for me."

But considering that sea turtles run back and forth so much, it would be too much trouble to only be able to carry one back at a time.

So after thinking about it, he climbed onto the boat and found a net on it.

"Here, take this and go catch some, bring back a lot!"

She also taught the sea turtles how to use it.

"Have you learned it?"

The sea turtle stared at her with its beady eyes, looking rather silly.

Yun Jiao: "Stupid, you can't even learn something this simple."

Then I taught it twice more.

"Try carrying that stone in."

Yun Jiao pointed to a small stone not far away with her little finger.

The sea turtle was very obedient, carrying stones in its mouth and dropping them into the net.

"right!"

Yun Jiao clapped her hands: "That's it, go on."

The sea turtle then carried the net back into the sea.

After seeing the sea turtle off, Yun Jiao went to find the sea urchin that she had left aside and hadn't retrieved yet.

Yunlin Hai and Yunlin He also came back. It's ridiculous, but the two adults caught fewer sea centipedes than Yun Jiao caught by herself.

"Where did this sea urchin come from? Jiaojiao, don't move, please don't move."

Yun Jiao was squatting by the sea urchin, about to reach out and grab it, when Yun Linhe and Yun Linhai excitedly called out to her.

She raised her excessively delicate face, as if it had been naturally enhanced with a beauty filter, and looked over innocently with her dark blue eyes.

"It really hurts to get pricked by this thing."

Yun Linhai picked up the sea urchin with pliers.

Yun Jiao followed beside them, saying, "I want to eat, I'm hungry, I want to eat..."

She actively expressed her thoughts and kept muttering that she was hungry.

They look so pitiful.

"Didn't you eat enough glutinous rice cakes?"

Yun Jiao shook her head, staring at the sea urchin.

She was actually full; what she really wanted to eat was sea urchin.

"Alright, Dad will get you some scissors to open it for you." The sea urchin was still very fresh. Once the sharp spines on the sea urchin were cut off, it was safe to open. Inside, it was full of fresh sea urchin roe.

"Here, eat."

Yun Jiao couldn't wait to start eating, and it was indeed delicious!

She was so happy that her big eyes narrowed.

After finishing their meal, the Yunlin brothers wanted to continue exploring the island.

Yun Jiao naturally continued to follow them.

The two adults weren't comfortable leaving her here.

When they encountered difficult sections, they carried Yun Jiao along; when the sections were easier, Yun Jiao walked on the ground and kept up slowly.

You can also find mantis shrimp and crabs from time to time.

"This blue crab is huge, it must weigh about a pound."

Yun Linhai was lucky and caught a big blue crab. It was so big that it looked almost as big as Yun Jiao's small face.

"Father, there are lots of shrimp down there."

Yun Jiao suddenly pointed to a diving beach below a reef.

"There's also a lot of seaweed."

The two walked towards her, and then, following the direction Yun Jiao pointed, they saw seaweed, which was indeed piled up in a large area on the shore.

But they didn't see the shrimp.

Jiaojiao has such sharp eyesight?
"Let's go down and have a look."

Not to mention shrimp, you can also bring back some seaweed.

"What a huge seaweed field!"

When they got to the beach, they discovered the shrimp that Yun Jiao had mentioned.

"It's prawns!"

Moreover, it was a group of prawns that were trapped on the beach.

As soon as they approached, the prawns in the shallow water, probably startled, began to jump around.

You can grab it with just a bend over; what's the difference between that and picking it up for free?

"Pick up the prawns first."

Yun Linhai glanced at the sea: "Hurry up, these shrimp will escape when the tide comes in."

There's no need to worry about the seaweed over there; even if the tide comes in, the seaweed won't grow legs and run away.

The three of them immediately squatted down and grabbed the prawns one by one, throwing them into the bucket.

Yun Linhai and Yun Linhe were beaming with joy.

They must have had a stroke of good luck today! May Mazu and the Dragon King bless them! When they get back, they must go to the temple to burn incense and donate some merit!

The tide is coming in, and people are rushing to catch prawns in Yunlin Lake and Yunlin River.

So they didn't notice that not far away, little Yun Jiao, who had her back to them, grabbed a few things and threw them into the bucket, and then grabbed one and stuffed it into her mouth.

She roughly twisted open the head of the still-living prawn, skillfully peeled off its shell, and then stuffed it into her mouth.

Her little mouth moved quickly, chewing and swallowing the food.

As the tide rose, Yunlin Hai and Yunlin He watched regretfully as some of the prawns escaped into the sea. They picked up their full buckets of water, turned around, and carried Yun Jiao, preparing to head towards the island.

"The tide is coming in; we have to leave."

Yunlinhe: "Brother, give me the bucket, go and get Jiaojiao."

"to make!"

When Yun Linhai picked up Yun Jiao, the little one still had half a shrimp stuffed in her mouth.

Yunlinhai: “∑(Д)”

Yunlinhe has almost the same expression.

Both of them stared at her in shock.

Yun Jiao nibbled even faster, her big eyes looking at them with an exceptionally innocent expression on her pretty little face.

After finishing the shrimp, she let out a small burp.

Yun Linhai pointed at her: "You..."

"Brother, stop talking now. The seawater is coming in quickly. We need to leave first."

Yun Linhai carried Yun Jiao and ran away.

"Jiaojiao, how much have you eaten?!"

Yunlin Haichou, his daughter is good in every way, except that she always likes to put things in her mouth.

I have to take a bite of everything!

Yun Jiao let out another burp, her belly becoming more noticeable, but she stubbornly insisted, "Not much."

She carried a bucket: "I also caught a lot of shrimp."
