Fisherwoman: After my divorce, I became rich by fishing at sea

Jack, Tom and Robert had never opened scallops before, to be more precise, they had never opened such large raw scallops.

But they were smart and eager to learn. They watched Fu Ming and others open a few scallops, and then practiced a few times. They quickly became proficient in the art of opening scallops.

In addition, Ye Xiaocui has always been enthusiastic. Seeing that they didn’t understand, she did not hesitate to slow down and teach them.

"Follow me and learn how to separate this large piece of meat. Put the scallops in this basin and the scallops in that bowl.

Don't leave the shells lying around, throw them all in the net bag. Tomorrow morning, Ah Ming and the head of the household will pull a cart and take the scallop shells to the beach to wash them!"

Boss Fu nodded in agreement. Fu Ming had no time to listen to Ye Xiaocui's nagging at this moment. His whole mind was on the scallops in his hand.

But after opening several, no pearls were found, whether it was the black lipped oyster or the giant pinctada oyster.

Fu Ming put down the knife somewhat discouraged. If the black pearl was not still in his pocket, he would have suspected that he was dreaming. These were just ordinary scallops and they could not produce pearls at all!

Fu Wan didn't get the second pearl, but she didn't think too much about it. Her hands kept moving. If this one didn't work, she would move on to the next one.

Fu Ming looked around, and at this moment, Jack suddenly laughed while holding up a small white pearl.

"Look, mine! I opened it too!"

Before Fu Wan and the others could take a closer look, Robert, who was standing by, also picked out a white pearl from the scallop meat in his hand.

If you look closely, you can see a light pink layer on the surface of the pearl.

"Oh my God, what beautiful pink pearls! I want to take them back to my grandma!"

His face was full of excitement, and he didn't care that he was still wearing dirty gloves, and he hugged Jack and Tom.

"Man, let's celebrate, we're so lucky!"

“Thank God, thank Mazu!”

"Oh Jack, damn it, you stained my clothes! Never mind, for Pearl's sake, I forgive you!"

The three of them laughed for a while, Fu Wan was too embarrassed to look at them, and Fu Ming also had a look of disgust. Ye Xiaocui usually said that he was stupid, but these three were the biggest fools, okay!

"Alright, alright, show me your pearls!"

Fu Wan stretched out her hand, Jack and Robert looked at each other, washed the pearls in their hands in the clean water beside them, and then obediently stretched out their hands to Fu Wan.

Fu Wan took it, and the contrast between the two pearls was obvious when placed together.

Jack's pearl was only slightly larger than a peanut. Although small, it was perfectly round and very pure white.

The pearl Robert opened was a circle larger than Jack's, about the same size as an ordinary glass bead. This pearl was also very round and had almost no flaws, but the color was obviously different from Jack's white pearl, and it was light pink all over.

It does look a bit like the pink pearl that Fu Wan had discovered before.

But the size is still a little off.

"It seems that the pearls we have found so far are all very round in shape and have uniform color. These scallops are really good!"

Fu Wan sighed, and Fu Ming nodded in agreement.

"Yes, Awan, let's keep going. I don't believe I can't get a second one!"

Fu Ming picked up another big scallop. Before he could make a move, Boss Fu laughed out loud. At the same time, Ye Xiaocui beside him also had a smile on her face.

"Dad, are you here to take out the beads?"

"Mom, did you get the beads too?"

In response to Fu Ming and Fu Wan's questions, Boss Fu and Ye Xiaocui nodded in unison.

The two men stretched out their hands, and Fu Wan took a closer look and found that they had also opened two pearls, one black and one white!

And their size is no less than the two pearls of Fu Ming and Tom!

"Haha, I told you, my luck has always been good!"

Ye Xiaocui was very happy. She loved this pearl so much. It was a thousand times more beautiful than the oyster pearls and abalone pearls she had opened before.

Boss Fu was also very happy, but after the two of them admired the pearls for a while, they simultaneously placed the pearls in front of Fu Ming and Fu Wan.

"We've opened two, one for each of you two. It's up to you whether you keep them or sell them later!"

Fu Ming was startled when he heard this, and immediately said awkwardly: "Just give it to Awan, why do you want to do it for me..."

Boss Fu rolled his eyes at him and said, "Just take it if I give it to you. Don't whine and delay my opening of the scallops."

Didn’t you see there are so many unopened scallops in the basin!

Fu Wan didn't take the pearls from Ye Xiaocui. She stood up and walked into the kitchen. When she came out, she had a few plates of food in her hands.

"Here, one for each of you, and put the pearl on top."

"Let's see who gets the most pearls!"

It’s not a good idea to keep the pearls in your pocket, so just put them on a plate and wait until you’ve opened the scallops to see the result!

As soon as Fu Wan said this, Boss Fu and Fu Ming and others immediately took a plate each.

The adults were sharpening their knives and busy cutting the scallops. Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu, who were standing by, were so envious that they didn't even bother watching TV and just wanted to join in cutting the scallops.

But the combined size of their hands was not even as big as a scallop shell, so Fu Wan didn't dare let them take the risk.

If you are accidentally cut by a knife or scallop shell, you may easily get an infection.

But when she saw the children's hopeful eyes, Fu Wan couldn't bear to refuse directly.

In desperation, she came up with an idea.

"Lingling, Mingzhu, you're too young to handle the knife, so how about this? I'll cut whichever scallops you like.

I believe in your luck, you will definitely get a big pearl!"

Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu's eyes lit up after hearing this, and they immediately hugged Fu Wan and took a bite.

"Mom, you're so nice!"

"Godmother, you're right, I'll go pick one now!"

Fu Ming and Ye Xiaocui saw this, and Fu Ming rolled his eyes and pretended to be sad.

"Oh, I really love you guys for nothing. Why did you choose for Awan but not for me? Has the friendship we had when we ate spicy noodles and sour plum noodles together disappeared?"

Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu felt a little embarrassed by what they said, and they immediately picked a scallop that Fu Ming liked.

"Uncle, this is for you!"

"Uncle-in-law, we don't discriminate!"

"Yes, no discrimination!"

Boss Fu was so happy to hear this. These two kids are just a little bit old, but they already know what it means to be treated differently!

Fu Ming benefited a lot from it. He was just that kind of person. He could play with children and got along well with the young and old men in the village.

In fact, it was after Boss Fu came back and his leg healed that his optimistic nature returned.

Although he was called a bachelor by the villagers after breaking off the engagement, he felt that his life was complete after meeting Qin An Ning.

Fu Ming happily picked up the scallops picked by the children, inserted the knife into the scallop shell, and opened the scallop in just a few strokes.

The meat in the scallop was no different from the pearl-less scallops he had opened earlier. Fu Ming habitually reached out and pinched the scallop meat. The next second, the familiar touch of the hard object made him look up in disbelief.

"Damn, it seems there really are beads!"
