Chapter 142 Pearl
Tang Yue returned to the boat and took the pearl oyster in the basin, opened it with a dagger, and as expected, she was not disappointed. She took out the pearls inside, and found a purple pearl that was half the size of her thumb, with a beautiful round shape. There were more than 20 pearls smaller than her thumb, including three yellow, four pink, three black, four purple, and the rest were light pink and white.
These 20 or so beads are all in good condition. The remaining ones are as small as rice grains and little fingers, and they are also in various colors. It would be a pity to sell them all. Unfortunately, the shapes are not good and there are not enough beads. It is useless to keep them. Let's put them in the warehouse first! Just in case they are useful later!
Tang Yue was ready to tell Zhao Shengrui and her parents-in-law what to say. She told them that the pearl was found in the oyster, and besides the pearls there were two rings. She thought they wouldn't suspect anything. The people in front of them hid the things in the oyster and then threw it into the sea. She just made it up to look good. Even if they had any doubts, they had no evidence.
Bring a few pearl oysters and put them all in sacks, as well as abalone, and take two sacks for sea fish. If you take too much, it will be hard to explain.
Seeing that it was still early, Tang Yue prepared to collect some more kelp and went back. She didn't want to go back too early, just during the time when they were cooking, so that not many people would notice her. She put on her wet clothes again and stayed in the sea for two hours. She said that she had collected enough kelp for her lifetime.
I rowed for another hour on the way back. I first loaded a sack of kelp on the boat, then started to find the right direction and rowed towards home.
On the way back, I was very leisurely. I reached the shore at about 12 o'clock, tied the boat to the reef, picked up a sack in my hand, and walked towards home.
Tang Yue ran into Zhao Shengrui halfway through her journey. "Brother Shengrui, why are you here at this time? Didn't I tell you I'd be back tomorrow? Are you here to see if I'll be back?"
Zhao Shengrui took the sack from his wife's hand, but he didn't expect that the things inside were too heavy and he couldn't lift the whole sack. Seeing him like this, Tang Yue had to leave two bags for him.
"I originally wanted to see if you would come back, but I didn't expect that I would be so lucky to run into my wife halfway. It seems that my wife couldn't bear to leave me alone in the empty room!"
Zhao Shengrui had originally planned to have an empty trip, but he didn't expect to have an unexpected surprise. He knew that his wife said she wanted to spend the night outside, but she was actually reluctant to let her go.
"Brother Shengrui, let me tell you, I found a treasure this time, and I promise to give you a surprise. You have never seen anything like it." She kept him in suspense on purpose to whet his appetite.
Tang Yue also felt that she was a bit like God's own daughter. She was so lucky that she always came across good things.
"If you don't find it, just tell me! I won't have to worry about it all the time." Zhao Shengrui was really curious. He had never seen anything like it before. Could it be some kind of natural treasure? He was a little suspicious. His wife gave him good food, so his strength and physique were getting better and better. He originally thought that if his wife didn't tell him, he wouldn't mention it. He didn't expect his wife to tell him. It was also possible that his wife had just found it. He felt that his wife was even more mysterious.
"Let's talk about it when we get home. Let me ask you, if I gave the good things to your parents, would they want to give them to your brother and sister-in-law? If so, I wouldn't bring them here, and I would just show them to you alone." Tang Yue was afraid that her parents-in-law would reveal the secret.
Zhao Shengrui heard what his wife said, thinking that this secret was not small! "Wife, then don't tell my parents yet. I'll read it first and then tell them if I can. If not, then let's keep it a secret! Don't worry, I will definitely keep it a secret for you."
Tang Yue felt that Zhao Chenrui had passed this test, and she should praise him first, "I definitely believe you. I'll hide the treasure on me! I'll show it to you before you go to bed tonight."
The two of them arrived home quickly. When they opened the door, they saw their parents-in-law taking care of the baby in the yard. "Dad, Mom, I'm back."
When Zhao's mother saw her daughter-in-law coming back, she was extremely happy. She had been nervous all day, fearing that something unexpected would happen. "It's good that you're back. I regret that you went. Let's go fishing at the beach next time."
The expression on Zhao's father's face also softened. He must be worried!
"Mom, I brought you a treasure. You will definitely like it." Tang Yue said mysteriously.
Sure enough, when the mother-in-law heard this, her eyes lit up. It wasn't because she loved the money, but because she liked the surprise. "What treasure is it? Bring it here and show it to me."
"Just wait." Tang Yue took out the dozens of pearls from the backpack, put them on a plate and handed them to her mother-in-law.
Mother Zhao looked at the plate of tiny pearls and smiled from ear to ear. "My daughter-in-law is still the best. She even thought of bringing me a gift when she went fishing. This purple one is really good! I have never seen such a purple pearl. I must keep it well and take good care of it. I will leave it to my granddaughter in the future. The remaining pearls are rare! There are all kinds of colors. They are all good things. I will put it away. Now I can't wear it. I will wear it later and keep it for jewelry!"
Tang Yue twitched her lips. She would keep it for her granddaughter now. Then her grandson would be jealous. But who cares? If she gave it to her mother-in-law, it would be hers. She could give it to whoever she wanted!
"Mom, I still have so many here! You can keep it for yourself. There is plenty of this stuff in the sea. If you really like it, I will get you more next time." After that, he poured the sack of pearl oysters on the ground. At first, he only found four pearl oysters, and later he found more than ten in other places. None of them were as big as a plate. I picked the good ones specifically to ensure that the pearls opened would not be small.
"Brother Shengrui, I'll give you the dagger, can you help me open it? I'm going to take a shower, and I smell like sea fish all over." Tang Yueshi couldn't stand the smell on her body.
"Okay, go take a shower! There's always hot water in the pot." Zhao Shengrui took the dagger from his wife and began to open them one by one. Sure enough, there were many pearls in each one.
Seeing so many pearls, Zhao's mother found a basin, filled it halfway with water and brought it over, intending to wash the pearls. Looking at the beautiful pearls in the basin, each of them was very precious and colorful, she really liked them. "Old man, look, there are actually a few golden ones in here! In the past, only the emperor could have them. I didn't expect that I have them too. My daughter-in-law is so nice."
