“Of course.” Ruan Yunxi nodded: “There is a place behind the back gate of our family compound where many fishermen bring fresh seafood, such as mackerel, squid, prawns, mantis shrimp, large yellow croaker, swimming crab, flower crab, small yellow croaker, sea cucumber, etc. Many of the women there are willing to take them.”
The women weren't locals, and they didn't have boats.
Beachcombing is just a small-scale activity; if you want to eat truly good seafood, you have to go for what fishing boats catch.
Upon hearing this, the women in the village exchanged glances, realizing they had found a great place to sell their seafood. Their village had several fishing boats, and they always brought back a lot of good catches.
The ribbonfish are all fresh and alive.
That was absolutely beautiful.
Sometimes they catch grouper, rock grouper, and that tuna I call something, a really big one. I heard that if they send it to Japan, it's super expensive.
However, they had no sales channels, and they couldn't bear to eat it themselves.
They can be sent to the naval base's family compound in the future. Their husbands receive a stipend, which is quite a lot of money each month, so they will definitely be willing to spend money on them.
Then look at the women in the family compound. They are all fair-skinned, with plump faces and rosy complexions. They look quite well-off.
Then look at the fair-skinned, beautiful, and radiant Ruan Yunxi. This woman looks young, but I didn't expect her to know so much.
She's so beautiful, they all want to look at her.
This girl is so beautiful.
I don't even know how my parents gave birth to me.
It was getting late, and Ruan Yunxi and her friends had made some gains, especially Ruan Yunxi.
The women resigned themselves to their fate. Every time Ruan Yunxi went out to go beachcombing, the harvest, while not exceptionally good, was certainly not bad.
Today, besides the life-saving sea cucumbers given as a gift by the village women, she also had a small bucket of seafood of her own, which was also of good quality and better than what they had picked.
I clearly didn't see her making any progress before, but somehow she suddenly emptied a whole nest of seafood.
The sisters-in-law were both envious and jealous.
When they got home, Gu Weizhou and the others returned from training.
Knowing they had gone beachcombing, Gu Weizhou cooked rice, waiting for Ruan Yunxi to bring back the seafood to cook.
Seeing that Ruan Yunxi had a good haul, he smiled and gave her a thumbs up: "My wife is amazing. She always has a great catch every time she goes out to sea. I'll grill the oysters with garlic for you. How about we cook the rest in one pot?"
"I also want the abalone grilled."
"Okay, grilled abalone!"
"How about steamed sea cucumber with egg?" Gu Weizhou asked.
Ruan Yunxi nodded.
Gu Weizhou prepared hot water for her to take a shower, and he began to process the seafood that Ruan Yunxi had brought back.
There are two squid. I'll make one into a stir-fried squid with chives, and grill the other.
When Ruan Yunxi came out of the shower and washed her hair, Gu Weizhou was still busy in the kitchen. She dried her hair, and Gu Weizhou had already started grilling oysters and abalone. These could be grilled over charcoal. The squid needed to be watched and turned over, and he would grill it later.
By the time Ruan Yunxi finished preparing, Gu Weizhou had already cooked a pot of seafood: "It's a little hot, take your time eating. I'll stir-fry a squid and we can eat now."
Ruan Yunxi nodded and was about to pick up her chopsticks.
Gu Weizhou noticed the bruise on her palm and grabbed her hand to examine it, asking, "What happened?"
Ruan Yunxi recounted how she saved the child, and how the child's mother pushed her in a moment of panic.
Gu Weizhou said unhappily, "How could she push someone?"
"I'm just concerned about the child, so I won't stoop to her level," Ruan Yunxi said, unconcerned.
Looking at his wife who had suffered a loss, Gu Weizhou kissed her injured hand tenderly and blew on it, saying, "Don't move. I'll peel the shells for you when I'm done, so you don't hurt your hand."
Ruan Yunxi: "...I'm not that delicate!"
“I can do it for you!” Gu Weizhou said matter-of-factly.
How could Ruan Yunxi refuse such kindness? Well, she'll just have to wait!
