Xu Zhengci swallowed back the words he hadn't said yet.

I thought to myself that my niece really seemed like a different person.

The submissive look she had shown in the past was still vivid in his mind, and Xu Zhengci found it hard to accept her current appearance.

"If you have nothing else, just go out..."

It's kind of disgusting to look at here.

Xu Yiyi directly ordered the guests to leave.

Come in a hurry, go in a hurry.

Xu Zhengci left in shame, as if someone was chasing him.

Sihai's attention shifted to the bowl of chicken soup on the table.

"Sister, is this stewed from the chicken in our house?"

Sihai's eyebrows were wrinkled like a caterpillar, and he seemed a little disgusted.

"Why is this soup black?"

Sanchuan also looked curiously.

"The black one is poisonous and cannot be drunk."

A Yue covered Sihai's mouth and spoke very seriously, almost pouring out the bowl of chicken soup.

Xu Yiyi also didn't understand Xu Zhengci's behavior. Could giving them a bowl of reheated chicken soup make up for his mistake?

She stirred it with a spoon and saw the ingredients inside.

"Cuttlefish! I guess they put it in the pot without cleaning it thoroughly. It would be strange if it didn't turn black."

Xu Yiyi poured out the bowl of chicken soup.

The bowls were placed in the yard as decoration.

"Sister, what do you think about us replacing the bowls we use in the stall with shells?"

Er'er suddenly thought of something while eating breakfast.

She pointed to the shells piled up half a person's height under the courtyard wall behind her. They were all picked up by her and A Yue. They couldn't put all of them in the room, so they were brought outside.

"Sure! Shells are cheap, and there are plenty of them on the beach. We can pick them up, clean them, and use them. They're also convenient for customers to take away, and we don't have to wash dishes every day."

It’s okay in the morning, but the food sold at night is oily and it’s quite difficult to wash.

There are a lot of shells at home, big and small, which can be used as plates or bowls.

It's easy to say, but it depends on whether A Yue agrees.

After all, it was her baby, and there was something she could do if she disagreed.

She asked a few boys in the village who were on good terms with her to help pick up the trash. They didn't have to pay any money, and they would be very motivated as long as they were given some delicious food.

"I just don't know if this shell can be used?"

Xu pointed at the shells on the wall.

Er Er nodded. "A Yue was the first to tell me. Last night before going to bed, she told me that when she was playing with A Yao, A Hua and the other kids during the day, they grilled fish outside and used shells to serve them. But I was too sad about losing the chicken and didn't have the patience to listen to her. I just remembered it."

Er Er smiled a little embarrassedly.

……

Xu Yiyi put the shells that had been cleaned in the corner of the wall into the pot and boiled them.

The boiled shells were placed in the yard to dry, and Er'er carried Wu Yuan on his back to go out and pry the oysters.

"Si Hai, you and A Yue should practice martial arts well, my elder sister has gone out to sea."

The child was squatting in the yard, and nodded obediently when he heard his elder sister's words.

Xu Yiyi carried the fishing net to the river, packed up the things on the boat and went down the river into the sea.

Turning around and looking at the rocks on the seashore, Er'er's figure carrying Wu Yuan on his back was particularly eye-catching.

After arriving at the launching area and folding the sails, the boat was left alone on the sea, swaying with the wind and waves.

A Da watched Xu Yiyi bravely jump into the water, but it was the first time Aunt Li saw her go into the water. She stared at the water surface in panic, waiting for someone to show up.

"Aunt Li, don't let your eyes be dazzled. My eldest sister didn't come out of the water that quickly after entering."

Er'er looked like she was used to it. Every time her elder sister went into the water, she would come out within a quarter of an hour.

"Your eldest sister is really good at swimming, she seems to be even better than your father. Thank you, your ancestors, for letting your eldest sister learn this skill. Otherwise, life would be really difficult!"

Thinking back to the time when there were children in the family, Xu Yiyi’s stubborn temper led to the cancellation of the marriage.

Although the clan will help, there will always be things that cannot be taken care of.

Several families are considering taking the children home to raise them.

Who would have thought that Xu Yiyi managed to lead his younger brother and sister-in-law out of the predicament.

Er'er smiled and thought that her elder sister was indeed a capable person.

The water near the shore is warmer, and Xu Yiyi dives down following the light.

Soon, he saw a coral reef that had been eaten bare by fish. The sea turtle behind him immediately swam over when he saw Xu Yiyi.

The shell was placed on Xu Yiyi's back, and Xu Yiyi understood.

I caught a few small fish for the turtle and stuffed them into its mouth.

The turtle followed Xu Yiyi's boat all the way from the town to the fishing village.

He went ashore more than once, and could see it every time Xu Yi went into the sea.

The well-fed turtle led Xu Yiyi to swim towards the coral reef.

Aunt Li pried the oysters for a while and then looked up. There was still only an empty boat on the sea.

If you don't look carefully, you can't see it clearly. It's just a dark circle. It took me a while to realize that there was no one on the boat.

I think it may be because I’m getting older.

"Why hasn't your elder sister come up yet?"

Aunt Li kept an eye on the boats on the beach.

"It's still early. Big sister just got into the water."

Er'er uses a hook to pry the oysters, no matter the size, and they are delicious after being washed and dried.

"Aunt Li, can you teach me how to dry oysters when we get back?"

Er'er remembered that all the things she had dried in the sun a few days ago had become smelly.

There was a strange smell in the yard.

"It just so happens that the weather has been nice these past few days, and the sun is strong, so I'll get some sun, too."

Aunt Li naturally nodded in agreement.

Xu Yiyi followed the turtle to a place with lush aquatic plants. The water at the seaside was shallower and more turbid than where he had gone into the water in the past.

Xu Yiyi frowned and looked at a nest of Yuanbao crabs in the seaweed.

Chase after the crab with tongs.

After catching all the crabs, the bag is full.

Xu Yiyi opened another empty fish basket and filled it with sea urchins.

With a splash, a figure broke out from the sea.

Xu Yiyi pushed her wet hair back, water still dripping from the ends of her hair.

Then pour the crabs and sea urchins into the bucket.

The turtle kept swimming around the boat. The water in this area was too turbid, and Xu Yiyi could not see it clearly.

I had to adjust the sails and head for slightly deeper waters.

"Why is your elder sister still going so far?"

Aunt Li saw Xu Yiyi climbing onto the boat and thought she was coming back.

Finally he left again.

Now even the boat couldn't be seen.

"Maybe there's nothing good to find nearby!"

Today is Sanchuan's birthday, and the eldest sister wants to find some expensive seafood.

"Your elder sister is really capable of making trouble."

Aunt Li shook her head helplessly. Aunt A Si, who had just arrived and heard this, also complained.

"This girl just loves to make trouble. She has so much energy every day!"

Aunt Cui came over and poured half of the oysters in the bucket into Er'er's wooden barrel.

She was used to this job, and she had already pried open half the bucket in just a short while.

"Don't worry too much, the two of you. Children who grow up by the sea are good at swimming. This is what she takes from her father."
