"ah!"
"Ah! What is that?!"
The harvest from beachcombing may vary...
But Song Chengxin's performance was always predictable...
Never disappoints.
He was intent on searching for sea cucumbers when, within three seconds, his scream echoed across the entire beach.
Wen Shishi calmly stretched out her little hand...
He covered his ears.
The fifth brother heard the fisherwomen's laughter rising and falling...
He gave a wry smile, speechless. "Third Brother, the way you call him that will scare the fish away!"
The seventh brother also had a smile on his face, but he still walked over and examined it carefully...
He couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Wow! Fifth Brother, Third Brother actually found sea cucumbers!"
The fifth brother stopped teasing, went over to take a look, and it was true!
Two sea cucumbers lay quietly on the sandy bottom of the shallow water.
He must have screamed because his third brother's foot touched him and felt slippery.
The fifth brother quickly picked up the sea cucumbers and put them into the bucket. Wen Shishi squatted down, lowered her arms, and began to count them carefully.
"One, two..."
Song Chengxin pointed at himself in disbelief, "What I found? It really is a sea cucumber?"
The fifth and seventh brothers nodded, but he still didn't believe it. He walked to the bucket himself and saw two sea cucumbers lying quietly at the bottom...
Unbelievable, yet instantly filled with boundless confidence.
The fifth and seventh brothers chuckled, then bent down to continue searching for sea cucumbers...
Less than ten breaths later, he heard his third brother's voice again.
"Forehead!"
"Ah! What's that! Something bit me!"
The fifth and seventh brothers didn't stop for a moment and went straight over, where they found a large seashell.
But when I picked it up, I found it was only half a shell, about the size of half a palm, much larger than the clams I had caught before.
A fisherwoman nearby called out, "Fifth Young Master, this is edible. We call it abalone; it's very good for your health!"
"abalone?"
Wen Shishi stared wide-eyed at the hand in her fifth brother's hand.
The fifth brother smiled and thanked the fisherwoman, then walked towards Wen Shishi with the seventh brother.
Judging from their expressions, they guessed that Wen Shishi might know this guy called "Abalone"...
Remembering their eldest brother's previous warning, the three brothers approached Wen Shishi and asked in low voices, "Shishi, do you recognize it?"
Song Chengxin also asked, "Shishi, is eating this really good for your health?"
Can people with weak constitutions eat this?
Hearing their third brother's concern for their eldest brother, the fifth and seventh brothers couldn't help but feel a pang of shame...
I felt I shouldn't have made fun of Third Brother so loudly just now.
Wen Shishi looked at it carefully, recalled the contents of the book, and nodded earnestly.
"It is indeed called abalone. It is edible and has high nutritional and medicinal value, and is known as the 'treasure of the sea'."
Image from the internet.
The third, fifth, and seventh brothers were overjoyed upon hearing this.
Wen Shishi then added, "Their food is mainly seaweed. The color of their shells will vary depending on the type of seaweed they eat."
Its inner surface is brightly colored and has a layer of pearl, which can be used for carving.
Its soft parts include a head, feet, mantle, and viscera. The soft parts, such as teeth and internal organs, are inedible.
Abalone shells can be used in medicine, with effects such as clearing the liver and improving eyesight, as well as nourishing yin and yang.
Abalone meat can regulate menstruation and promote bowel movements, making it an excellent tonic for infants and young children, as well as those with weak constitutions.
After Wen Shishi finished speaking, Song Chengxin's eyes lit up. "Got it! Big brother can eat it too. Now, let's catch sea cucumbers and abalone!"
The fifth brother added, "The abalone shell is inedible, but it can be used in medicine. The sixth brother will definitely love it!"
The three brothers soon returned to the beach.
"ah!"
"What is that? What is that?!"
A few breaths later, as expected, Song Chengxin screamed again.
But this time, the fifth and seventh brothers not only didn't show any disgust, but instead looked delighted...
Two abalone were harvested.
Song Chengxin was a little confused. He had never been so lucky. How did he suddenly become a lucky charm?
Amidst his confusion, a sharp pain shot through his ankle, and Song Chengxin screamed as he crouched down.
Wen Shishi reacted quickly, spotting a silver fish with a pointed snout about to swim away near her third brother's feet...
He quickly shouted to Fifth Brother and Seventh Brother, "Catch! Fish!"
Fifth Brother, Seventh Brother, catch that fish!
