Time Travel: A Fisherwoman Goes to the Sea to Raise a Baby

Xiang Yu got on the boat and stared at Xu Yi with even more curiosity.

I couldn't tell what was different from usual.

“I was born with this.”

Xu Yiyi felt uncomfortable being stared at. Xiang Yu's eyes were like those of a modern scientist who was fanatical about science and wanted to catch her and slice her up for research.

At the dock, A Yuan was anxiously waiting for Xiang Yu, and the owner of Fumanzhai standing next to him was also looking forward to it.

There was no reference price for sea urchins, so the shopkeeper took the initiative and gave thirty taels of silver for them all.

As soon as Xu Yiyi took out the red snapper, the shopkeeper saw it with his sharp eyes.

"Wait a minute, why don't you sell this fish too? I'll take it home and make some sashimi."

Red snapper has tender meat and excellent flavor, making it an excellent choice for making fish sashimi.

It's just that it's rare to see one at the dock, and the shopkeeper naturally doesn't want to miss it when he comes across one.

Unfortunately, Xu Yiyi is also a foodie. She hasn’t even had the chance to eat it herself, so naturally she is reluctant to sell it.

"Let's wait for next time! If I can meet it again next time, I'll sell it to you."

Xu Yiyi dragged the fish basket out and was so busy talking to the owner of Fumanzhai that she didn't even notice when Xiang Yu left.

The shopkeeper looked regretful and wanted to try again.

"If you want to eat it, you can go to Fu Man Zhai! Our chef is a good cook. This fish will definitely taste good if he cooks it."

Xu Yiyi shook his head. "My cooking skills are not bad either. I'll set up a stall at the dock tomorrow. You can come and try it when you have time."

It was difficult to mix the batter at the dock, so Xu Yiyi prepared it at home and brought it over in a wooden barrel.

The lady selling fried oysters turned pale when she saw the oysters Er'er and Sihai were carrying.

At dawn, the five siblings of the Xu family arrived at the dock.

Sanchuan helped them set up the stall before carrying his schoolbag to school.

"I was wondering why you bought something from my store the other day. It seems you were trying to steal my skills!"

The old lady's voice was sharp and thin. She stood not far away with a drooping face, and her heart was full of displeasure.

While talking, saliva sprayed onto the pot, which was not very graceful.

The tone he used when facing the guests was not very nice, and he took his anger towards Xu Yiyi and the others onto others.

Er'er was a little nervous and saw that the old lady looked a little worried.

"Sister, have we taken over Auntie's business?"

Xu Yiyi placed Wu Yuan, who was tied to his body, on a small basket, which was filled with soft cotton cloth. Xu Yiyi sewed a layer of light-blocking cloth on it, which was just right for the child to sleep on and was also convenient to carry.

Wu Yuan broke away from his sister's arms and lay on the small basket, starting to cry subconsciously.

Xu Yiyi reached out and patted the child gently, kissing him on the forehead. Seeing this, Sihai also kissed his brother's chubby little face.

The child was coaxed into silence, and Sihai squatted on the ground to play with his younger brother.

Xu Yiyi was busy preparing to open the stall, and smiled when she heard Er'er's words.

"We all make a living by our own cooking skills. She's not the only one selling fried oysters on the dock, but she treats us coldly. It's simply because she thinks we're children and easy to control.

We just need to do our own thing and don't have to worry about her mood."

The sea breeze blows gently, carrying a hint of saltiness.

Xu Yiyi wanted to light a match, but she didn't expect the wind to be so strong.

Seeing this, Er'er didn't care about anyone else. He surrounded the small flame with his hands and lit the match.

The blue flames licked the bottom of the pot, and Er'er used a fish scoop to scoop up the oysters in the wooden barrel and drain the water.

Xu Yiyi scooped a spoonful of batter into the bowl, grabbed a handful of leeks and chopped green onions, added oysters and mixed well. After the oil in the pan was hot, she gently poured the prepared batter into the pan, making a slight "sizzling" sound.

I saw the oysters jumping slightly in the pot, as if saying hello to the dock in the early morning.

Xu Yiyi held the spatula and skillfully flipped the oyster omelet, intending to make each side golden and crispy.

The fragrance drifted with the sea breeze and filled the pier.

Er'er and Sihai started to learn some of the stall owners' shouting.

"Come and see, come and see! Delicious fried oysters! Fresh oysters, tender and tasty, only two cents each..."

The two children's voices were clear and loud, like birds singing in the early morning.

They shouted and waved their hands. Wu Yuan also joined in, trying to attract the attention of passers-by.

Early-rising boatmen, porters and passers-by were attracted by the fragrance and stopped to take a look.

But they were all just watching, and the old lady saw this and quickly called people over.

Just then, Xiang Yu's servant A Yuan came hurriedly over.

"Young lady from the Xu family, my husband heard that you were selling food at the pier and said your cooking skills were quite good, so he asked me to buy some for breakfast."

Xiang Yu was an old scholar, but I didn't expect his servant to speak in such an elegant manner.

"Omelettes are two cents each, and three cents with an egg."

Xu Yiyi gave a lot of ingredients. There were more oysters in one pancake than in the ten pancakes of the lady next door combined.

Ayuan ordered two with eggs and two without eggs.

When the copper coin was handed over, Sihai took it and put it into the wooden box, banging it with a clanging sound.

Xu Yiyi poured the egg liquid evenly on top, and the egg liquid gradually solidified, tightly wrapping the oysters and green onions.

The interweaving of emerald green, silver white and golden egg liquid is very beautiful.

While waiting, a man in plain clothes came forward and spoke.

"Is your teacher Mr. Xiang Yu from Mingde School?"

Because of Xiang Yu's identity, Ayuan is very arrogant to most people.

He just nodded slightly and nodded in agreement.

The man was very happy.

He kept talking to A Yuan and got the hot oyster omelet. A Yuan said hello to Xu Yiyi in a cold manner and left.

"Since Mr. Xiang likes it, give me two servings, one with eggs and one without."

Others were also attracted by the stall, and a large pot of fried oysters was divided among them.

"I want four..."

"Give me two, I'm in a hurry."

The boat waits for no one, and the boatman stood and watched for a while, which wasted some time.

Xu Yiyi made the pancakes, Er'er mixed the batter, and Sihai was responsible for collecting money and lighting the fire.

The child couldn't stop laughing when he heard the jingling sound of the cash box.

Xu Yiyi took a look at it when she had time. It was a small creature and you wouldn't have thought it was such a money-grubber.

The three men never stopped working since they set up their stall. They sold out buckets of batter and buckets of oysters, leaving only some leeks.

"Sold out?"

The person who bought a round came back and found that there was no more stuff in the bucket, and he felt a little disappointed.

"I just opened the stall today. I thought I made too much and it would be a waste if I couldn't sell it all. I think I can sell it for a longer time tomorrow."

It was just a test, who knew the business would be so hot?

"Your cakes are delicious and the ingredients are generous. Sell more next time..."

The man watched as the last pot came out of the oven.

Oysters don't cost any money, but it does take a little effort, so she was naturally willing to put in the effort.

Before eating it, I thought two cents each was too expensive, but after eating it, I felt it was worth it.

After the last pot was sold, the owner of Fumanzhai slowly appeared at the dock.
