The Crown Princess is busy fishing

Afterwards, Lin Yuge shared some basic knowledge with the group, hoping to ensure their safety as much as possible.

The next morning, just as dawn was breaking, someone came to call the two of them to prepare to board the boat.

Lin Yuge followed her mother and saw the father and son off onto the boat.

The mother and daughter watched with worry as the three sampans sailed further and further away until they disappeared on the horizon.

Cai Jinhua, who had come to see her husband and son off, saw them.

He hurriedly said, "Don't worry, the sea has been calm these past two days, there won't be any problems. Let's go, they're all on that rocky beach over there."

The two then composed themselves and followed each other to the rocky beach.

On a huge rock, oysters were densely packed together.

A group of women with headscarves wrapped around their heads and chisels in their hands.

They were constantly prying oysters off and putting them into a net bag.

"Aunt Jinhua, how are we going to eat all these oysters?" Lin Yuge asked, seeing how seriously everyone was picking them.

"Just treat it like food, boil it or steam it!"

"If you really can't finish them, you can dry them and sell them to the pharmacy in town. Sometimes traveling merchants will come to buy them."

Xie Jingwan looked surprised. "Can this be eaten as a meal? Will it fill you up?"

Cai Jinhua nodded, "Of course, this stuff is very nutritious."

After saying that, he glanced at the mother and daughter and advised, "We live by the sea, so we have to rely on the sea for our livelihood."

"You can't do that, eating white rice every meal, and you even bought so much wheat flour." Her words were full of disapproval.

Xie Jingwan wasn't angry; she knew the woman was concerned about her.

She simply explained, "Sister Cai, you know we're from the north. We're used to eating rice and noodles, and it's hard to change that all at once."

Cai Jinhua nodded, "That's true, but we should still save money where we can, we have a long life ahead of us!"

Mother looked somewhat embarrassed.

Lin Yuge quickly came to the rescue, saying, "Don't worry, Aunt Jinhua, we'll make a lot of money in the future. Then we can eat whatever we want."

Upon hearing this, Cai Jinhua chuckled and nodded at Lin Yuge's head.

"You little girl, you have quite the ambition. Then work harder so that your mother and the others won't have to worry about food."

After saying that, he shook his head and turned back to work.

Lin Yuge looked at her mother.

Xie Jingwan replied firmly, "Daughter, Mother believes you can do it. Go and get to work!"

The group worked diligently, heads down.

By noon, the sun was shining, and the seawater gradually rose above our thighs.

Only then did everyone carry bags of oysters back home.

"Mother, we can keep much more things today." Lin Yuge said, shaking the net bag in her hand.

"Well, maybe it's to thank us for our help yesterday! The people here are actually very kind and simple."

"Yes, we should thank that constable named Meng Liang."

"If it weren't for him, we wouldn't be here. We'd probably be doing hard labor somewhere right now!"

"Let's talk about it when we run into each other again!"

"Honey, how do you eat these oysters? They're all shells, so ugly!"

Xie Jingwan picked one up and looked at it, her face full of disgust.

"Mom, Aunt Jinhua is right, this stuff is really nutritious. It can even beautify your skin and replenish your energy!"

As she spoke, she picked up the oysters one by one and carefully scrubbed them clean.

Seeing that Xie Jingwan had already started cooking, Lin Yuge said, "Mother, could you help me heat up the stone slab outside? We're having grilled oysters today."

"Alright, Mother will go right away. You take care of it carefully."

"Understood," Lin Yuge nodded without looking up.

She used a knife to pry open the oyster shells one by one, revealing the smooth, milky white oyster meat inside.

I got some more garlic, chopped it up, and stir-fried it into a garlic sauce to take outside.

Arrange the oysters neatly on the stone slab and top them with stir-fried minced garlic.

In a short while, a rich aroma wafted over.

The spiciness of the garlic and the freshness of the oysters blend together, filling the air with their aroma.

The aroma seemed to have a magical power, making people unable to resist taking a bite.

After all the oysters were grilled, Lin Yuge saw the open door next door and took a plate of them over.

They dropped it off and left without saying another word.

Wen Jizhong seemed to have gotten used to the family's ways and no longer thought about refusing.

Lin Yuge returned to the house and set everything on the table.

Xie Jingwan was putting a piece of oyster meat into her mouth.

With one bite, her eyes lit up instantly, and she involuntarily quickened her swallowing pace.

Seeing this, Lin Yuge didn't bother to say anything more.

Pick up an oyster shell, bring it to your mouth, and pry it open with chopsticks.

The tender, juicy oyster meat, infused with the aroma of garlic, bursts in your mouth.

Lin Yuge squinted his eyes with a satisfied look and continued to reach for the next target.

Soon, only a pile of oyster shells remained on the table.

Xie Jingwan said with lingering relish, "Daughter, let's have this again tonight. I can eat it as a meal."

Lin Yuge felt somewhat helpless; she felt that her family members were all turning into foodies.

"Mom, too much of a good thing is bad. Even if it's delicious, we can't eat too much. Let's eat something else tonight."

Then she said her plan, "Mom, I don't need to weave nets this afternoon. I want to go for a walk around the village."

"Looking around here, all you see are mountains and water. What's so interesting about that?"

"Mother, it's beautiful precisely because there are mountains and water!"

"You don't understand, this is called being nestled against the mountains and by the water, what an ideal vacation spot!"

Xie Jingwan didn't understand what was so good about it, but seeing how much she liked it here, she stopped worrying about it.

"You can go, but you need to be careful and avoid dangerous places."

He heard his mother agree.

Lin Yuge nodded hurriedly and said, "I know, Mother, I will be careful."

After saying that, he picked up the basket and ran out.

She had already been to one side of the house, which is today's rocky beach.

Not far away was a golden beach, where we picked clams that day.

Lin Yuge glanced longingly at the coconut grove on the distant beach, which was covered with coconuts.

They should be ripe by now, but I don't know if the village allows them to be picked.

Walk around the houses in the village and head back.

Then you see a lush mangrove forest, like a green barrier, steadfastly guarding the coastline.

In front of the mangroves lies a shimmering mudflat.

Lin Yuge rushed over as if she had discovered a treasure.

This is a place brimming with life.

Mudskippers were seen leaping up and down on the mudflats, while fiddler crabs occasionally crawled out of the crevices in the rocks nearby.

Continuing on, Lin Yuge also found a cluster of laver, carefully removed it from the rock, and put it into his basket.

Near the mangroves, clams, scallops, and all sorts of small shrimp and crabs can be found everywhere.

Lin Yuge squatted down and gently dug with his hand, harvesting several plump clams.

Then, he carefully removed the two scallops from a rock and put them into his basket.

A short while later, I saw another group of mussels gathered together, their dark green shells blending into the surrounding environment.

Lin Yuge carefully selected the large, plump mussels and happily put them into her basket.

The mudflats near this mangrove forest are like a natural treasure trove, constantly bringing Lin Yuge surprises and rewards.

After harvesting a few more wild duck eggs, the small basket they had brought was now full.

Lin Yuge looked at the small fish jumping back and forth not far away, still savoring the moment.

He muttered to himself, "Never mind, maybe next time!"
