Yun Ruoxi and Mu Ruxue found it very interesting to watch the two little sisters playing and fighting.
Hua'er begged for mercy quickly, "Sister, I was wrong. I will never say such nonsense in front of outsiders again."
Xiang'er looked at Hua'er and really begged for mercy, so he let her go.
"I'll let you go today for the sake of our distinguished guest. If you say anything nonsense again in the future, I'll be really angry."
Huaer smiled and apologized, "Yes, yes, I've made a note of it and will never say anything nonsense again."
Xiang'er then turned to Yun Ruoxi and Mu Ruxue and said, "Are you going to the beach? Xiang'er can go with you."
When Hua'er heard this, she said in surprise, "Sister Xiang'er, are you really going to go with us?"
Looking at their happy expressions, Yun Ruoxi and Mu Ruxue were both curious as to why Huaer wanted Xianger to go so much.
After Hua'er was happy, she turned to her two best friends and said, "Beautiful sister, you may not know that my sister Xiang'er is famous for her ability to catch seafood in our generation. If Sister Xiang'er had led us, we would definitely have a good harvest today."
Xiang'er, who was praised by Hua'er, unconsciously puffed out her chest, her face full of pride, but her words were very humble, "Hey, Hua'er, don't talk nonsense, I'm just lucky. I just finished all the chores at home today, so I'll go with you."
Yun Ruoxi smiled and said, "That's great! With you two little guides leading the way, we'll be happy even if we don't get anything. But we won't let you two sisters accompany us for nothing today. If you accompany us to the beach today, each of you can get 4 snacks. How about that?"
Hua'er was frightened by the dim sum incident. She was smiling just now, but now her expression changed.
Yun Ruoxi and Mu Ruxue knew what Hua'er was hesitant about. She was afraid that the village chief would not agree if she took the snacks back.
Mu Ruxue's eyes rolled, and she instantly thought of a solution. "How about this? If we take the snacks back, your grandfather will definitely not agree. Since you two are cousins, the village chief is your common grandfather, right?"
Seeing Hua'er and Xiang'er look at each other and nod in unison, Mu Ruxue knew that her guess was correct.
Mu Ruxue: "You two sisters, accompany us to go fishing today. Regardless of whether you catch anything or not, we will give you two sisters five cents each. If we find seafood, we will give you an extra two cents. How about that?"
Huaer and Xianger never thought that they could get five cents just by accompanying the distinguished guest for a walk. What’s the difference between this and pie falling from the sky?
But Hua'er still said with some worry: "No, if we take your copper coins, Grandpa will definitely make us return them when we go back, and we will inevitably be punished."
Yun Ruoxi: "This is the income from your hard work, why are you being punished? Think about it, normally when you're at home or go fishing, even if you don't exchange the things you get for silver, you should at least add some food to your home, right? Now you've wasted a whole day with us, so why are we giving you a few copper coins as hard work fee?"
Xiang'er's brain was quick, and she quickly understood what her two best friends meant. Her eyes sparkled as she said, "Really? That's fantastic! I never thought we could earn money one day. Don't worry, dear sister, we'll definitely take you to plunder the sea goods today."
Fishermen living by the sea would go fishing when the tide went out, but the catch was small and varied, so it was difficult to exchange it for money in the town, so they would just cook some food at home.
But there is too little meat in the seafood. Even if you add a dish, you can only taste the flavor of seafood, which is not enough to fill your stomach.
Now they are accompanying the two distinguished guests to go fishing. Regardless of whether they get any harvest or not, each person will be given five cents. If they lose a few more times, they can still earn more than if they were doing embroidery and embroidering purses at home.
If they were to embroider a purse at their current age, they could only make one per day, which they could sell for 3 to 4 cents in the town. Five cents would be the price if the embroidery was relatively good.
Now they can earn so much money just by accompanying their guests for a stroll on the beach, so why not do it?
Seeing Hua'er still hesitating, Xiang'er got anxious. "Hey, Hua'er, don't hesitate. This is a rare opportunity. Besides, we have nothing to do today. Wouldn't it be nice to accompany our distinguished guests to the beach and experience the fun of catching seafood?"
"But......"
"Oh, don't say but. I'll talk to Grandpa later. I'll take care of anything that happens. Okay?"
As soon as Xiang'er finished speaking, Hua'er nodded happily, "Okay, I feel relieved with what my cousin said. Let's go!"
Xiang'er, who had been trying hard to persuade her, was stunned. She felt something was wrong. "Why do I feel something is weird?"
Yun Ruoxi and Mu Ruxue looked at this scene and burst out laughing.
Although Hua'er is usually honest, she is very smart at this critical moment. Now that she has Xiang'er, she takes the initiative to take responsibility. Even if the village chief wants to punish them, the two sisters will come together and will not scold Hua'er alone.
Xiang'er, I really can't figure it out, so I'll just forget it.
Because in her heart, Huaer, her cousin, was not a mean person and did not think badly of her at all.
When she looked up, she found that the three people had already walked a distance. Xiang'er hurriedly caught up with them and shouted, "Everyone wait for me, I'm still behind and haven't caught up yet."
The flower in front, as if responding to Xiang'er, shouted loudly, "Sea, here I come!"
You know what, it really feels different to have two young sisters accompanying them for a stroll outside.
Yun Ruoxi and Mu Ruxue were not very old in this era, only five years older than Hua'er and Xiang'er.
But when they walked together, Yun Ruoxi and Mu Ruxue looked like adults, while Hua'er and Xiang'er looked like little bean sprouts that had not yet grown up.
In fact, this is also related to normal living habits and nutrition. After all, Huaer and Xianger live in the countryside. It is normal for them to not have enough food to eat, not have warm clothes to wear, and be malnourished for a long time.
Mu Ruxue carried her small bamboo basket and said with a smile, "I haven't eaten crabs for a long time. I must catch a few to try today."
Mu Ruxue was right. Although everyone had brought out a lot of delicious food during their exile, they had never eaten crabs.
In modern times, the two best friends' favorite food was seafood. Since they traveled through time, they were either fleeing famine or on the way to flee famine. How could they have the mood to prepare these things?
Every time they want to eat something delicious, some messy people always appear and interrupt their plans.
