Lin Qing and Cheng Xiaoling played on the beach for a while, and then it was completely light. There were already many people coming to the beach not far away, including Cheng Xiaoling's colleagues.

The two put on their shoes, gloves, picked up buckets and tools, and began to look for crabs and shellfish in areas with more reefs.

"Xiaoling, look, there looks like a crab over there!" Lin Qing shouted excitedly, pointing to a black shadow on the shallows in the distance.

Cheng Xiaoling followed her gaze and exclaimed, "Oh my God, it seems to be true. Let's go and take a look!" They excitedly quickened their pace and walked towards the black shadow.

When I got closer, I saw that they were really crabs, two of them, crawling back and forth on the beach, sometimes sticking out their claws, sometimes hiding in caves.

Lin Qing and Cheng Xiaoling quickly bent down, picked it up carefully and put it into the bucket.

As they continued walking forward, suddenly, several clams appeared in their sight.

"Ah! Lin Qing, look! That looks like a clam!" This time it was Cheng Xiaoling's turn to scream in surprise.

When they got closer, they saw that there were indeed several of them.

He quickly put down the bucket and other tools and carefully picked up the clams.

Lin Qing did not rush to put the clams into the bucket. Instead, he carefully held them in his palms and examined them carefully. He said to Cheng Xiaoling, "Xiaoling, they are so beautiful! But I only know that they are called clams, but I don't know what kind they are. Do you know?"

Cheng Xiaoling shook her head and answered seriously: "I don't know either. How about we use our mobile phones to ask Baidu?"

Lin Qing's eyes lit up and he agreed, "Yeah, why didn't I think of that? If you don't understand, just ask Baidu."

Just as she was about to reach into her bag to take out her phone, she realized that she was still wearing gloves. She couldn't help but sigh and said, "Forget it. We are here to eat clams, not to take a test on clam species tomorrow."

Cheng Xiaoling smiled and said, "Yes, you are right. Why do we need to know the types? Anyway, when I go to the market to buy vegetables, I just say to the boss, 'Boss, I want this and this', and after I buy them and eat them, I don't even know what they are called."

As soon as the words came out, they both laughed at the same time, feeling how stupid and childish they were.

The two picked up a lot of clams and then continued to look for crabs on the reef.

"Wow, I saw a crab, it's orange." Lin Qing shouted excitedly again.

Cheng Xiaoling became excited and asked in surprise: "Where is it? Why can't I see it?"

Lin Qing pointed to an uneven cave on the beach, "Over there, in a hole under that reef."

Cheng Xiaoling: "Wow, it's true, Lin Qing, your eyes are so sharp, I feel like we are going to get rich, haha, come on, let's try to dig it out with a shovel."

They worked together, taking turns digging with the shovel and tongs, carefully avoiding the crab's claws.

Finally, after some effort, they saw the body of a crab emerging from the hole.

Finally, Lin Qing used pliers to grab the crab's claws little by little, and carefully pulled it out of the cave slowly.

Before the creature was completely pulled out of the cave, Lin Qing screamed again: "Ah! Xiaoling, there's another one in there!"

Cheng Xiaoling leaned over and said, "Really? Where, where, let me catch it."

The crab inside was obviously a little panicked and struggled desperately, but was finally successfully caught by Cheng Xiaoling.

After catching two big crabs, the two were extremely happy and their faces were full of smiles.

They continued to search on the beach, digging and harvesting, and sometimes asked people next to them to help take pictures of catching crabs.

Time passed unknowingly, the sun gradually rose, and the golden sunlight sprinkled on the sea, sparkling and beautiful.

In the end, the two buckets they brought were full, one bucket was full of clams, one bucket was full of crabs, and there was also a bag of shells. The two of them were so happy and satisfied that they couldn't express it in words.

When they were about to return, they saw a lot of starfish. They didn't pick them up, but put them back into the sea and watched them slowly swim away.

Lin Qing and Cheng Xiaoling came back from the sea. It was almost noon and they were hungry, so they ate something and then went back to their hotel room.

The two of them got up too early this morning and were excited about going to the beach for the whole morning. Lin Qing lay down on the bed and sighed, "Oh, I'm tired but happy."

I took out my phone to edit my Moments, ready to share today’s harvest. The text was: I harvested a lot and can’t eat it all. I can’t finish it at all!

Then he added two pictures, one of himself digging for crabs and the other of two buckets filled with crabs and clams.

Click "Publish" and then put your phone on the bedside table with the screen off.

Just as he was about to close his eyes and take a nap, he suddenly thought of a question and asked Cheng Xiaoling, "Xiaoling, we picked up so many crabs and clams that we can't finish them all. Do you have any good friends or relatives in G City? Can you give some to them?"

After hearing this, Cheng Xiaoling was stunned for a moment. It was obvious that she had never thought about this question before. She replied, "I don't have any relatives in G City. My good colleagues also picked up a lot today. How about asking your brother Lin Rui to come over and eat together?"

Lin Qing shook his head. "He can't eat much by himself, and tomorrow is Monday and he has to go to work. If he comes over tonight, he will have to rush back after eating. It's not worth it to eat my crab. I plan to share some with the auntie who lives next door to me."

Cheng Xiaoling smiled and nodded to show her understanding, and suggested: "Why don't you put it in your refrigerator? I heard that it can be kept in the refrigerator for a while. When you want to eat it, take it out and cook it."

Cheng Xiaoling basically doesn't cook for herself, and she shares an apartment with her colleagues, and the refrigerator isn't hers alone, so it's impossible for her to bring these things back to her residence.

Lin Qing thought about it and asked doubtfully: "Will there be any smell if I put it in directly?"

Cheng Xiaoling quickly replied: "I just checked. If you put them in a fresh-keeping bag and put them in the refrigerator, they can be kept for a week. If you put them in the freezer, they can be kept for more than a month without spoiling."

After hearing this, Lin Qing nodded and agreed: "Okay, if there is some left after giving it to others, I will put it in the refrigerator."

After saying that, the two closed their eyes and prepared to rest for a while.

The surroundings gradually became quiet. Because they were so sleepy during the past two days, they fell asleep quickly, and only the sound of slight breathing could be heard in the room.

Their thoughts slowly drifted away, as if they had entered a peaceful world.

In this moment of tranquility, their bodies gradually relaxed, every muscle was no longer tense, and the heavy feeling of fatigue receded like the tide.

Time passed quietly, and the alarm clock rang at 1:50 pm, waking them up from their sweet dreams.

Rubbing their sleepy eyes, they slowly got up, packed their luggage, and boarded the bus back to City G.

The scenery outside the car window kept changing, but their hearts were filled with gratitude and nostalgia for this trip.
