Before going back, I used a dagger to pry out dozens of sea urchins. The sea water was much warmer than before, and the sea urchins grew faster.

When it floated to the surface of the sea, the position of the sun changed again.

Xu Yiyi changed her wet clothes and rowed her boat to the dock to sell her catch.

He sold one of the two groupers and kept ten sea urchins for himself. The owner of Ruyifang noticed the giant octopus on Xu Yiyi's boat.

The first thing he said was that he wanted to buy it.

Xu Yiyi shook her head and refused.

She only caught this one today, so naturally she would focus on herself first.

The sea fish he caught was sold for less than half a tael of silver. He used the money to buy a chicken at the dock, two bones and pork fat from the pork stall, and two pieces of tofu from the tofu stall. On his way back, a merchant ship happened to dock.

Looking at the fresh apples, and thinking about my children at home who have never eaten them, I couldn't help but buy six to take home.

After all this time, not only did I spend all the money I earned that day, but I also added some money myself.

The fruit seller saw how generous she was and gave her a piece of dried fruit to try.

The taste was a bit sour and not to her liking, so she just took the wrapped ringo away.

The man was still a little lost, but recovered the next moment.

Most of these merchant ships passing through the town are stopping to rest and replenish supplies. Their main purpose is not to do business here. There are not many people who can buy their products, so it is normal that they cannot sell them.

When they returned to the river and saw her carrying so many bags, my uncle couldn't help but throw a fishing rod over to her.

"Do you think you have a gold mine at home? You just buy things blindly."

When my uncle saw the chicken in her hand, he almost fainted.

I just ate chicken the day before yesterday and bought more today. I eat it more frequently than a woman who has given birth at home.

Xu Yiyi didn't know how to explain to her great uncle that the first few children in the family all followed A Yue to learn martial arts and ate some chicken to supplement protein.

Only after being taught a lesson by my great uncle did I dare to carry my things home.

As soon as she took a shower after entering the house, she couldn't wait to chop the dried chilies into pieces and put them into a clay pot, mixing them with white sesame seeds and salt to season them.

Then prepare all kinds of spices, such as star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, peppercorns, etc., like a group of soldiers about to go to war, waiting to be called.

The moment you refine the lard into oil and add the spices into the pot.

A rich aroma wafted into the air. Xu Yiyi took out the fried spices and poured hot oil into the earthenware jar containing chili peppers.

With a sizzling sound, the chili peppers are stimulated by the hot oil, and an aroma that is more fragrant than fried spices rises.

Xu Yiyi set up the iron plate that had been prepared long ago, and after the charcoal fire was stirred vigorously, he placed the various processed seafood on it.

The crabs with bared fangs and claws, the shrimps jumping around, and the shellfish with their shells tightly closed seem to be still savoring the taste of the sea.

Then she took a brush, dipped it in a special sauce, and gently applied it to the seafood.

The aroma of the sauce and the freshness of the seafood blend together and permeate the air.

When the children came back, the seafood had changed color due to being roasted over the charcoal fire.

The crabs turned bright red, the shrimps turned an attractive pink, and the shellfish slowly opened their shells, revealing the tender meat.

"Sister, is this the barbecue you mentioned?"

Er'er watched intently. Xu Yiyi had been talking about having barbecue every day for a while. After the iron plate was brought back, it was placed in the utility room without being moved.

Now that the peppers have grown, the iron net has become useful.

"Yes, yes, does it smell good?"

Xu Yiyi's hands kept moving, constantly turning the seafood to ensure that each side was grilled to perfection.

Sihai and Sanchuan are young and seem unable to control their saliva.

Xu Yiyi turned around and saw the crystal liquid.

A Yue took advantage of her inattention and touched her, almost scaring Er'er to death.

"Are you Iron Hand?"

Er'er said hatefully and scooped a bucket of cold water to wash over A Yue's hand.

After being scolded, A Yue was not as scared as before, and looked at Er Er with a smile.

She was being scolded, but she could hear concern in Er'er's tone.

"Sister, I feel like I'm getting old."

Er'er sighed and hugged Wu Yuan with a sad look on his face.

Xu Yiyi turned around, looked her up and down, and pinched her face.

"You are such a young lady, you are telling lies with your eyes open!"

Er'er is no longer like before, he is as thin as a monkey.

Being well-fed and cared for by Xu Yiyi, Er'er has gained weight now and looks so pretty.

Not long ago, when I was still living in town, someone came to my house and wanted to get engaged to me.

"I don't mean I look old, I feel old at heart."

A Yue doesn't remember being beaten and forgets many things I told her to do.

Just like just now, she stupidly reached out to touch the iron plate. Fortunately, she reacted quickly, otherwise her hand would have been burned.

"Ayue is a little difficult to take care of. We need to be patient."

Xu Yiyi had never been angry with A Yue except for the two times she brought her on board.

Er'er listened and pouted.

"Open your mouth, ah——"

Er'er opened her mouth subconsciously, and Xu Yiyi stuffed the roasted scallop meat into her mouth.

The little girl's mouth was stuffed full. The scallop meat was golden in color, and the edges were slightly curled from being roasted, with a roasted aroma.

After chewing it carefully, the unique umami flavor mixed with a hint of saltiness and a subtle spiciness spread in Er'er's mouth.

"delicious."

As soon as Er Er said this, Sanchuan and Sihai in the room came out.

Sihai looked at Er'er's constantly chewing mouth, and looked at Xu Yiyi with a look of aggrieved eyes.

"Si Hai hasn't eaten yet, but my second sister has. I want to eat too."

Sihai doesn’t like seafood, but the seafood cooked by his elder sister is always delicious.

Over time, he became less picky about food.

The children stood on tiptoe to look. Xu Yiyi picked out two scallops and gave a bite to each of them.

The fragrance made the two children go around in circles.

Seeing this, Xu Yiyi served out the roasted shrimps, crabs and various shellfish.

A Yue sat on the table with the big shell she picked up from the beach. Seeing Er Er nodded, she started eating happily.
