Chapter 290: Simply Stupid
When Ji Jian came back from the infirmary, Zhang Xin and the old man were busy treating the soldiers with fractures.
"My old Huang is here."
Yang Qing sighed, "Old Huang has to write a self-criticism again."
Yi Chichi, "??? Is this the team led by your Lao Huang?!"
"Yes."
This is a major accident, injuring so many people at once.
“I can’t write a self-criticism.”
Tong Nian gave her a dose of reassurance, "On the contrary, your Lao Huang has made a great contribution this time and will be praised."
Upon hearing this, the listless Yang Qing revived to full health.
"real?"
Tong Nian nodded, and Yi Chichi and the others nodded. If so many soldiers had accidents during the training, the team leader would indeed need to take responsibility.
However, the situation of Lao Huang and others is different. In a small sense, they are acting bravely to save others; in a big sense, they are protecting people's lives and property.
Not only is there nothing wrong, but it is also meritorious.
Yi Chichi was puzzled, "You have been with the army for more than a year, how come you don't even know about the distinction between rewards and punishments?"
The corner of Yang Qing's mouth twitched, and he explained aggrievedly, "It's not my fault. My Huang is just an ordinary person. Since I came here, he has done nothing wrong."
If that is the case, I don't know if it is excusable.
"There's no hope if Zhang Xin goes to catch fish."
Checking the time, Tong Nian stood up and said, "Are you leaving now or later?"
"Now."
It is better to arrive early than late, so that they can slowly reach the beach just in time for the tide to recede.
Good.
"Then let's go."
So the four of them carried buckets filled with tongs, salt and hammers and went to the beach.
There was a big tide today, and almost all the family members in the family quarters who were off work or had no work came out.
When we got to the beach, we saw many fellow villagers.
There are many children.
At first glance, it wasn't crowded, but it wasn't much better either.
The tide had not yet completely receded, but some people could no longer hold back and rolled up their trousers to get into the water.
Yi Chichi and the others stood on the beach, looking left and right and seeing people.
Looking ahead, there are more people.
Looking back...
Oh, you don’t need to look at the back, it’s land and there are not many people.
"We are going to catch fish here?"
Yi Chichi, who is not familiar with the island, feels that he can't gain anything here.
I’m afraid they won’t even get a share of dried shrimps.
Yang Qing and the others all looked at Tong Nian, and Yi Chichi, noticing the change in their gazes, also looked over.
"Sister-in-law, you've been here for a long time, we'll listen to you."
Tong Nian was silent for a moment, "I do know a good place to go fishing, but it's a little far."
As she said that, she looked at Ji Jian, "I'm worried that you can't get there."
Ji Jian did not swear that she could do it, but asked about the specific distance. When she learned that it would take half an hour to walk, she smiled.
"I can walk this distance."
"Are you sure you can do this?"
"able."
Even so, Tong Nian was still worried and warned, "If you can't stand it halfway, don't be stubborn and just say it."
"Don't worry, I won't joke with my body."
Since Ji Jian can leave, let’s go.
The four of them walked westward along the fine sandy beach. The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the beach and the sea, bringing bits of golden spots.
Flocks of seabirds circled over the sea, occasionally swooping down to snatch a fish.
The loud and clear voices of seagulls echoed over the sea.
A few coconut trees stood on the beach, and with a thud, a coconut fell down.
Yang Qing's eyes lit up, "I'll go pick up coconuts."
Before she finished her words, she was blown away like a gust of wind.
Yi Chichi and the others walked slowly, watching Yang Qing run to the coconut tree like a Husky and pick up the fallen leaves.
Tong Nian sighed, "I feel that Lao Yang is really heartless."
“Maybe I’m still a kid at heart.”
Yi Chichi replied jokingly, and Ji Jian laughed, "She still has a childlike innocence, she is just simple and stupid."
Almost as soon as she finished speaking, Yang Qing, who was described as simple-minded, shouted to them happily.
"Come quickly, I see several coconuts are about to fall."
This is to call them over to help shake the tree to shake the coconuts down.
They exchanged glances and quickened their pace.
Then--
"Just wait for them to fall off naturally."
After looking up at the coconuts above, Yi Chichi pulled Yang Qing away.
Tong Nian and the others followed immediately.
Yang Qing, who was being dragged away, kept moaning, "Why don't you shake it?"
“I’m afraid of being crushed to death.”
Coconuts are heavy enough to begin with. If you hit someone on the head with it, it will cause a lot of damage. If it falls from a great height and hits your head, you'll be lucky if you don't die. If you only get a concussion, you'll be lucky.
Being crushed to death is really bad luck.
Seeing her looking back every few steps, Yi Chichi said unhappily, "Don't look at it anymore. If you want to drink coconut milk, wait for your husband Huang to pick some for you when he's free."
It is definitely impossible to shake a coconut tree, as most people do not have the ability to predict the trajectory of an object.
Especially for falling objects from high altitudes, they may seem very far away from you, but in fact they may be right above your head.
It's too dangerous.
“Actually, we can climb trees.”
Tong Nian came up with an idea.
"You crawl?"
Yi Chichi asked sharply, and Tong Nian shook her head and said she couldn't.
"What a coincidence! I can't climb trees either."
Yi Chichi smiled. No matter her past life or this life, she was always a city girl. In her original world, she couldn't even tell the difference between wheat and weeds before she was ten years old.
After coming to this world, I have learned a lot of skills, learned about many crops, and know what to plant and when.
The only thing about climbing trees is that there is no difference between her past and present lives.
He turned around and asked Yang Qing, "Old Yang, can you climb?"
“My hometown is on the Loess Plateau.”
There are trees, but not many, and not many big trees. There is no way because there is a severe lack of water there.
"I can."
Ji Jian took over the conversation. Yi Chichi and the others glanced at her, then looked away and ignored her. Yang Qing even complained, "Even if you can, I wouldn't dare let you crawl."
They must be crazy to think of asking a pregnant woman to climb a tree to pick coconuts, they are not mentally ill.
Sighing, she said, "Let's share this coconut among the four of us. When my old Huang is free, I'll ask him to pick a few more coconuts."
"No, take it back and drink it yourself."
I don't have the tools to open a coconut, so how can I share it?
As they chatted and laughed, they walked further and further away, and there were fewer and fewer people around them.
After walking for another five or six minutes, a group of reefs connected to the mudflats appeared in front of us.
Strange-shaped reefs with sharp edges stand at the junction of sea and land, and the reefs exposed to the sea are covered with dense bumps.
Yi Chichi's eyes lit up, "So many oysters."
Tong Nian looked around and saw that there was no one nearby, so he lowered his voice and said softly, "There are a lot of abalone here."
Oysters are not bighead carp, the real bighead carp is abalone.
"I've found palm-sized abalone here."
Before Yi Chichi could be happy, Yang Qing spoke before her, "Abalone is not tasty."
"How did you do that?"
The first time she heard someone say that abalone was not delicious, Yi Chichi simply couldn't understand it. She liked eating abalone, especially braised pork with abalone, which was her favorite.
