Chapter 602 Blushing to the Neck

As for Shen Youyou and the others, the reefs were indeed a good place. Not to mention what was inside, just on the outside one could see a lot of piles of spicy snails, onychomysalis, and strings of mussels, some of which were even wrapped in seaweed.

But it is easy to slip on scorched earth. Although it is washed by sea water all year round, there are still many sharp places. If you accidentally fall in it, it will definitely not be a fun thing.

So behind Shen Youyou, Fu Huaian followed closely, without any awareness that the girl in front of him also had good kung fu skills.

Just then she found a large pile of spicy snails. Before she could go forward to collect them, a pair of white and slender hands next to her started to pick up those black spicy snails without any disgust.

She turned around and saw the tall Fu Huaian. The boy's arm muscles were bulging due to years of martial arts training, and it seemed that even the long robe he was wearing could not cover them.

However, he was born with fair skin, and even though he was often exposed to wind and sun at the border, he still did not look dark. His facial features were delicate, and his eyebrows were deep. His outfit at this time was a little simpler than yesterday, but more approachable.

Shen Youyou hadn't reacted yet and just blinked twice.

Fu Huaian was holding a bunch of spicy snails in his hand. Seeing the other person staring at him, his face turned red and he said, "Don't do it. Be careful not to cut yourself."

She raised her hand and waved it casually: "I'm not that squeamish. You, a grown-up young master, should be careful about these things."

Ah Chi, who was following behind with a bamboo basket, was speechless: "Miss Yoyo, can't you just hold back a little and give our young master a chance to perform?"

As for their young master, he was already very satisfied listening to the girl's clear voice. At least at this moment, he was very close to her.

Moreover, compared to the last time when they worked in the greenhouse of Jiu Zu's house, one at the east end and the other at the west end, now two of them are working side by side, harvesting a pile of spicy snails, which is much better.

After collecting a bunch of snails, Shen Youyou turned around and walked towards the group of scorched stones. Fu Huaian quickly put the last handful of spicy snails in his hand into the bamboo basket that A Chi was carrying and immediately followed.

The other boys from the nine tribes were even more so. Several of them had already stayed in Zhigu for quite some time and had been to the beach quite often.

Of course, these free lunches at the seaside are not uncommon. Although they are not as familiar to the locals, most of the edible ones are familiar to them.

So with someone leading the way, the other boys from the nine tribes also made a lot of effort in their own bamboo baskets.

This has to be said that the seafood resources in Jiaoshi are indeed much better than those on the beach outside. After walking a few steps, Shen Youyou saw a very large oyster. It was said to be very large, but in fact it was only about two taels.

But this is already a relatively large oyster, and it looks very similar to a raw oyster. In the past, many places also called raw oysters "sea oysters".

In fact, they are not the same kind of seafood. In the biological classification system, oysters and clams both belong to the phylum Mollusca, class Bivalvia, order Pectinata, family Ostreidae.

From a broad classification framework, they are indeed shellfish belonging to the same family and have a relatively close "blood" relationship.

Oysters are usually large in size, with adult oysters reaching about nine inches in length. Even in some high-quality breeding environments in later generations, some oysters can grow even larger.

Their shells are thicker, providing better protection for the soft tissues inside.

In comparison, oysters are generally smaller in size, usually no more than three inches in length. Although there are some relatively large oysters, overall, they are significantly different in size from oysters.

Moreover, in terms of the growth environment, oysters do not have very high requirements for seawater and temperature. They are distributed in almost all coastal areas, come in a wide variety of numbers, and have a relatively short growth cycle.

Oysters generally like to live in cold sea water, have very high requirements for temperature and environment, and have a longer growth cycle than sea oysters.

Coincidentally, both types of oysters can grow in Zhigu, so the Jiu Zu workshop can use oyster shells to make calcium tablets and oyster meat to make oyster sauce.

Shen Youyou picked up the three-inch long oysters with shining eyes and threw them into the bamboo basket in a very happy mood. There was a lot of meat in it.

Fu Huaian had excellent hearing and eyesight, and at the same time he discovered a large crab hiding in a rock.

Fortunately, they were well prepared and brought tongs, otherwise they would not have been able to catch it.

When Shen Youyou saw Fu Huaian picking up the big crab, she was wondering whether it was steamed or grilled.

I don’t know whether these two people were lucky or if marine resources were just abundant in ancient times, but every two steps they would come across two stone crabs, with their fangs and claws bared, looking very arrogant.

However, no matter how arrogant he was, he could not escape the tongs of the two men, especially since they all practiced martial arts, so not only were their hands steady, but they were also very strong.

Soon, not only Shen Youyou and her group, but also the gang from the Nine Clans, who were wandering around in the reefs, had their bamboo baskets half filled.

It was at this time that A Chi, who was carrying a bamboo basket, was standing on the stone waiting, while their young master and Shen Youyou, who were restless, jumped up and down without stopping.

So if you stand high and see far, you can vaguely see a dense mass of things on the distant rocks.

“Master, Miss Shen, there seems to be a piece of oysters in front.”

Shen Youyou's eyes lit up when she heard this. Isn't that oysters? In ancient times, people called them oysters.

She was so excited that she dragged Fu Huaian to the direction Ah Chi pointed and said, "Let's go over there and have a look. We have oysters for you to grill tonight."

Fu Huaian, who was being pulled, blushed all the way to his neck.

Ah Chi saw that if Miss Shen didn't let go, white smoke would come out of their young master's head.

I wanted to laugh but didn't dare to. I had to suppress my smile and just follow him.

Shen Youyou herself was completely unaware and walked very quickly, her attention completely drawn to the group of oysters in front of her.

However, she did not forget to call her brothers to follow.

As they got closer, they saw that the dark reefs were covered with oysters of various shapes, more numerous than they had imagined, and much larger in size.

Do you remember the oysters that Grandma Hua bought last time? She felt so distressed about it. If those expensive things weren’t going to be eaten by her third son and her beloved grandson, she might not have been willing to give them up.

As for the oysters in this patch, it cannot be said that all of them are that big, but many of them are comparable to that one.

There are many ways to eat oysters. They can be steamed, boiled, fried, or even eaten raw.

Shen Youyou had already let go of Fu Huaian's hand, and all she could see were oysters all over the ground.

I was so excited: "Brothers, hurry up and pick up the big ones to pry."

But before she could rush over, Fu Huaian grabbed her arm and pulled her back.

"Yoyo, be careful, the oyster shells are very sharp, and there are a lot of oyster shells on the rocks over there."

"Don't worry, I know what's going on."

In fact, she was indeed too excited just now. Although the workshop collected a lot of oysters every day, she couldn't resist the ones in front of her at this moment.

It’s not a question of whether she has money or not, it’s a question of a sense of accomplishment.

Fu Huaian was helpless. He knew that no matter what he said, he couldn't stop the other party, but he could only follow closely step by step.
