It's not a high tide today, so there are fewer seafood and not many people.
The two of them randomly chose a direction and searched as they walked.
Tian Tiantian has rich experience in watching people go to the beach to catch seafood. Seeing that Song Shuqian was looking for very little, she shared her experience with her.
"Look at these holes. There may be something in each of them. These are clam holes. The holes are slanted. You have to dig from this side, and it's best to dig deeper. It would be great if there is salt. Just sprinkle some and it will come out by itself."
As she spoke, Tiantian dug out a big clam.
"You're so awesome, let me try it too." Song Shuxi followed Tiantian's method to dig, but after digging for a long time she found nothing.
It's quite difficult.
Song Shuxi simply skipped over the question of salt. Supplies are tight now and everyone’s supply is limited, including salt. In winter, we have to make various pickled vegetables, and that is when the majority of salt is used.
"Wow, Xixi, come here quickly, there are so many oysters here," Tiantian ran to a reef covered with densely packed oysters.
The two of them were using small shovels to pry oysters here. One, one, and another, he was having a lot of fun prying them open.
"Tiantian, how do you eat this?"
"The simplest way is to blanch it, or you can roast it. My favorite is garlic paste, which is to put a lot of garlic on it and add some vermicelli. Anyone who eats it will be confused."
Thinking of the delicious oysters, the two of them unconsciously quickened their movements.
In a short while, he had pried open half the bucket.
It’s hard to tell who’s luckier between the two of them, but they always have a good harvest when they go fishing.
The two found several fish in a shallow area, each weighing more than two kilograms, as well as a lot of abalone, cat's eye snails, a coconut snail and a large piece of kelp.
He tied two large barrels to the back seat of the bicycle and staggered towards the staff quarters.
Song Shuqian could ride fine by herself, but with so many things tied to her, she felt unbalanced and rode very carefully for fear of falling.
Tiantian laughed out loud, and she always looked so relaxed every time she saw Song Shuxi. I didn't expect that she would lose on the bicycle.
"Shu Xi, go back and ask your captain to get you a basket and put it in front of the car so you can put things in it. You can also add a basket or a pedal at the back to make it easier to move things."
Song Shuqian's eyes sparkled when she heard this, "Tiantian, you are so smart."
The two returned to the family compound and attracted a lot of attention.
"What good things are Miss Song and Miss Tian going to buy? You young people really know how to enjoy yourself every day," an old lady said sarcastically. She had long been fed up with these two people who did nothing all day long but spent money.
"What can we do, aunt? Our supply is fixed. If we want to nourish the men at home, we can only go fishing," Tian Tiantian said unhappily. She was so fed up with these people who kept their eyes on other people's families every day.
"Aunts, you are sitting here chatting. What delicious food would you like to give to the children at home tonight?" Song Shuqian changed the subject with a smile.
The aunt was not grateful. "What good things can we find by going to the beach? We are old, and it is difficult for us to go to the beach. We can only eat some steamed buns every day to supplement the children at home."
Song Shuxi and the other two are young and are no match for that aunt, and they are very self-aware. "Aunt, you guys go ahead and do your work. We two will go back and clean up first. There are quite a few dead bodies on the way back. Please clean them up quickly or they will stink if left there for too long."
After saying that, the two of them turned around and ran home, not giving the aunties and sisters a chance to speak.
Maybe it’s because it’s a coastal area, the families here are not that keen on seafood. The aunt’s attitude is to take advantage if you can, but it doesn’t matter if you can’t.
Song Shuxi took Tian Tiantian directly back to her home, where there was a yard, making it easier to clean up.
"Come and drink some water and take a rest," Song Shuqian quickly poured a glass of boiled water.
Two people were sitting at the stone table in the yard, with egg cakes and fruit tea in front of them.
"I think your small yard is better. I didn't choose it well at that time. The building is very cramped. The space is so small. And the distance between each house is too close. If there is any movement in the house, others can hear it.
The noise from the kids fighting upstairs is enough to kill someone."
Tian Tiantian now really wants to go back to the past and wake up the self who chose the building.
Anyone who lives in a tube-shaped building knows what it is like.
Song Shuqian had never lived in a building and didn't know about this. Now she was so happy to hear this. "They can choose a house again after they get promoted. You should urge your husband to get promoted as soon as possible."
Tian Tiantian stopped teasing her and said, "It's not easy to get a promotion. I'll just try to be patient."
"Is there anyone living in a bungalow here who wants to move to a building? If so, can you guys exchange privately?"
"I really don't know about that. The building over there is newly built, so there should be someone willing to stay there."
The two of them kept this matter in mind and prepared to inquire about it slowly later, as this kind of thing could not be rushed.
After a good rest, I started to prepare the seafood.
Dry everything that can be dried in the sun, and deal with what needs to be processed slowly.
Although Song Shuxi had never done any work before, she was able to do her work in a very capable manner.
It only took half an hour to pack up Tian Tiantian’s things.
"Xixi, I'm going back first. Don't rush to pack your things. I'll come over tomorrow and we can do it together."
"The hard ones have been done. The rest will be finished in a while. I'll do it myself. Don't underestimate me." Song Shuxi snorted proudly. Tian Tiantian had already taught her how to deal with it.
After seeing Tian Tiantian off, Song Shuqian used water to raise the snails. The snail meat needed to be extracted and handed over to Wei Jianguo.
She went to the kitchen to prepare dinner for today.

I picked up a lot of small fish and seafood today, made a seafood stew, and then made cornmeal pancakes.
Song Shuxi had the habit of hoarding food when she was in the general's mansion. Now there were a lot of meals made in the small kitchen in the space. She quietly changed the plates and lied that she had hoarded them in Jinling. Wei Jianguo already knew the existence of the gourd space, and finally he didn't have to put himself in a difficult position.
When Wei Jianguo came back in the evening, the dishes were already prepared and he only had to cook.
"Wife, you are so amazing that you can bring back so many seafoods." Wei Jianguo likes to praise his wife at home now. He thinks his wife is good in every way.
"Try this little cake. I hid some of it for food. It's made with cheese and is soft, sweet and especially delicious."
Wei Jianguo looked at the cheese on the table. It looked a bit like a small steamed bun. If you pressed it with your finger, a pit would appear. Inside was a filling made of milk, which was especially delicious.
"This is delicious, wife, do you know how to make it? Just tell me and I'll make it."
"I really don't know. I can only roughly guess what was put there."
"It's okay. I'll study it slowly and cook it for you when I learn it."
"OK"
After dinner, Wei Jianguo went to process the snail meat. Wei Jianguo opened the coconut snail and removed the inedible parts as usual. He felt like taking out whatever was inside and found an orange-yellow pearl, the size of a thumb, very beautiful.
"Oh my God, Jianguo, you are so amazing. You can even get pearls out of them like this. Hurry up, open all these and see if there are any more."
This was the first time Song Shuxi saw freshly opened pearls. It was truly magical.
However, their good luck is limited, there is only this one.
Song Shuqian was very satisfied.
