I became a vicious stepmother and I went to the sea to feed my three children.

Master Cheng is now very excited. What Bai Qingyao just said to him not only made up for their shortcomings, but also solved their current difficulties.

He was about to turn around and go to the boat with an excited look on his face, but Bai Qingyao quickly stopped him.

"Master Cheng——"

"what happened?"

Master Cheng had no idea that it was already dinner time and they should eat.

When people devote themselves to something, it is easy to become addicted to it and forget about time. This is concentration.

"It's time for dinner. Please eat first and then get busy."

Bai Qingyao spoke helplessly.

After hearing her words, Master Cheng looked up at the sky. It was almost noon and it was indeed time to eat. However, this was their first time building a sea bridge and they had no experience. However, they were full of energy and for a moment, they actually ignored their hunger.

He couldn't help but smile awkwardly, "I didn't feel it just now, but now that you mentioned it, I'm actually a little hungry."

"The food is over there. Go ahead and I'll call the others."

"No need for you, I'll go."

As he said this, Master Cheng turned around in a hurry, walked to the beach, and shouted loudly.

Bai Qingyao was stunned, turned around and went back to the ox cart.

Gu Yichen had already taken out the food from the car.

There were no tables or chairs here, so Bai Qingyao used local materials, put some wooden stakes together, covered them with a layer of large leaves, and put the food on them after it was slightly flat.

At noon, I cooked fish and made fish balls. I also stewed rice and added the soup to the rice. This way, the rice was soaked with the fragrance of the fish meat, without any fishy smell. It was so delicious that my mouth was full of oil and the aftertaste was endless.

When Master Cheng and the others came back, they smelled a rich fragrance in the air and their noses moved subconsciously.

Then, I saw a table full of dishes, and there was even meat!

The people brought by Master Cheng didn't react much when they saw the meat, but there were still quite a few workers, who were villagers of Dayuan Village, as well as some nearby villagers. For them, they could only eat meat twice a year. There was meat on the table today. How could they not be excited?

As for the others, although they were not too excited when they saw the meat, they felt their stomachs rumbling when they smelled the fragrance in the air.

Bai Qingyao heard those voices but didn't say anything. Instead, she filled the bowl with rice for them and said, "Everyone, you've worked hard. Come eat some rice to replenish your energy."

After hearing her words, the others quickly found seats, sat down and started eating.

Master Cheng looked at the snow-white fish meatballs in front of him. He poked them and found them chewy. He picked one up and took a bite.

‘Zi——’

The juice splashed out from inside. Master Cheng chewed it slowly twice. It was soft and sticky, but not purely sticky. It was also very chewy. It fell on his teeth and slowly bounced back. The aroma of the fish became more and more fragrant as he bit it down.

too delicious!

Even he, who had eaten so many delicious foods over the years, had never eaten such delicious fish.

The fish we ate in the past were cooked in very common ways in restaurants, but no restaurant could completely remove the fishy smell of the fish.

I eat fish occasionally, or when I suddenly want to, but the taste of the fish balls this time is so unforgettable.

As soon as Master Cheng looked up and was about to pick up another piece of fish balls with his chopsticks, he saw that the fish balls in front of him were almost gone and a group of people were scrambling to grab some.

He didn't care about being reserved and quickly joined the "army" grabbing the fish balls.

After eating and drinking, Master Cheng suddenly remembered that Bai Qingyao had invited him to dinner before. He immediately beat his chest and stamped his feet, feeling that he had missed out on an ounce of gold.

Such delicious food was actually rejected by him.

What Xu Zisheng said was true. Bai Qingyao's cooking skills were truly rare. She could cook fish so deliciously. The other food... I couldn't even imagine how it would taste...

He regrets it so much.

However, no matter how much he regretted it, he was very satisfied with the meal. Not only him, but the other workers were also particularly satisfied. After eating, they collapsed on the ground and closed their eyes to take a nap.

Bai Qingyao tidied up the table, put the things on the ox cart, and glanced at Gu Yichen again. "I'm going to take a look at the island. Do you want to go back?"

"With you."

Gu Yichen spoke, as if afraid that Bai Qingyao would misunderstand him, and he continued, "I don't know if there are any wild animals on the island. If something happens to you, the children will be sad."

He spoke briefly and concisely, not because of Bai Qingyao, but because of the three children.

Bai Qingyao glanced at him and said, "Actually, it's nothing..."

"Let's go."

Gu Yichen didn't wait for her to finish, took the things and went directly to the boat on the shore.

Bai Qingyao: ...

dog man!

But she still followed him. Never mind. She would not argue with him. It would be soon. She would be free soon.

Bai Qingyao didn't go to the island these days. When she got off the boat, she took down the fishing rod, put it by the "lake" for a while, and turned on the automatic fishing mode, which could also increase some points.

After Gu Yichen got off the boat, he did not walk far. He followed Bai Qingyao to the open space on the island.

Seeing Gu Yichen standing there, Bai Qingyao ignored him and went directly to the open space to measure. Since they were building a house, they naturally couldn't build it small. Such a place was suitable for building an ancient courtyard house, which must have a bathroom, toilet and kitchen.

The toilets here made her somewhat uncomfortable.

By the way, before building this, you need to dig out fresh water first.

Last time, the water was found under the stone wall nearby.

Seeing Bai Qingyao hurriedly going to the bottom of the stone wall, Gu Yichen thought something had happened.

Bai Qingyao walked to the stone wall, half squatted down, and scooped up a handful of water from the small pit under the stone wall.

This small puddle was dug when she left last time, just to store water. After a period of sedimentation, the water that had become turbid due to digging the pit is now crystal clear.

Bai Qingyao took a sip directly, and it was refreshing, sweet, and had a sweet aftertaste.

"and many more--"

Gu Yichen was startled by her action. What kind of water was this? How could she dare to drink it casually? "If you are thirsty, we can go back and drink it later. This is all sea water and you can't drink it!"

"Who said this place is all seawater?"

What do you mean?

Hearing Bai Qingyao's words, Gu Yichen was stunned for a moment, a little confused. Then, he saw Bai Qingyao pointing at the puddle in front of him.

“This is fresh water.”

"what?"

Now it was Gu Yichen's turn to be shocked.

The water used in the nearby villages was all from the lake, and the water source was very scarce. When he was in the mountains before, he only relied on a small spring of water, but now...

He half squatted down, scooped up a little, tasted it, and it was really fresh water!

There is fresh water on this island...

After a while, he raised his eyes and fixed his gaze on Bai Qingyao, wondering who she was and how she could find fresh water on an island.

Or did she know from the beginning...
