Chapter 60: It was Song Shiwei who harmed our little Douzi!
Many of these family members came from inland areas and had never been to the sea, nor had they ever thought about going there, because when each of them first arrived, their husbands had told them not to.
"Don't eat blindly. You don't know which seafood is poisonous. If you eat the wrong ones by accident, you may get poisoned!"
But at this time, Zhou Xiaomei was really envious when she saw the two full buckets of seafood that Song Shiwei and the others had.
Can Song Shiwei eat it? Why can’t they eat it?
If there is really no other way, she will also go to the sea to catch fish. At worst, she can just catch whatever she sees the locals catching, right?
So when Song Shiwei went to the beach the next day, he saw Zhou Xiaomei and her son Douzi also going there.
Seeing them coming, she even smiled smugly.
Song Shiwei sneered slightly, not knowing what she was so proud of.
Originally, anyone could go fishing, so she didn't care about her.
He led Zhou Cheng, Zhou Lin and Xiao Cui to pick up things as soon as possible.
Although they didn't finish eating the two big buckets of fish they picked up yesterday, Song Shiwei used sea water to feed them, so they can still last for a few days.
In the morning, she asked Zhou Tingyue to find some mud and bricks and built an oven at the door of her house.
You can have barbecue later!
Zhou Tingyue was also very skillful with his hands. After listening to Song Shiwei's request, he made a wire mesh with clean thin wire, brushed it clean and placed it on the top.
This simple version of the oven is completed.
With this stove, you can not only grill seafood and fish, but also various meats and vegetables.
After hearing what Song Shiwei said, Zhou Tingyue and the other children immediately started drooling.
This is also the reason why she came again today as she hadn’t finished eating the seafood she picked up yesterday.
The two children were simply too excited and wanted to catch more.
After the tide receded today, a lot of clams were left behind! Zhou Cheng, Zhou Lin and Xiao Cui were having a lot of fun picking up the trash.
Song Shiwei also found several large octopuses in the cracks of the rocks.
These octopuses are hard to catch, as their suction cups stick very firmly to the rocks.
Sometimes Song Shiwei couldn’t clamp something down with pliers, so he just grabbed it with his hands!
Be careful when grabbing them with your hands, as corals sometimes grow in the cracks of the rocks. Corals are poisonous, and the toxins are generally found on the tentacles of their mouthparts. If you accidentally touch them, you will be stung, which is very painful!
Therefore, Song Shiwei always wore two layers of thick wire gloves before catching the octopus.
In fact, Zhou Xiaomei had been observing her, and when she saw what she was grabbing, she would rush to grab it.
When she saw an octopus under the rock in front of her, her face suddenly lit up with joy and she reached out to grab it. As a result, she was stung by the coral and screamed “Ah!!!”
It hurt so much that she almost cried!
The people nearby couldn't help but look at her. Song Shiwei was not far away. Seeing that she was stung, she wanted to kindly remind her. However, Zhou Xiaomei rolled her eyes at her, with anger in her eyes, as if she was deliberately hurting her.
Song Shiwei: “.......”
It's incomprehensible. Is there something wrong with this person?
She'd better not remind her. What if she thought he was deliberately making up an excuse to prevent her from catching him? She doesn't want to cause trouble for no reason.
In addition to octopuses, you can occasionally find some crabs, swimming crabs, blue crabs, and even some king crabs in the cracks of the rocks here.
In fact, it is not too fat at this time, but it is almost fat. Didn’t the ancient literati love to eat crabs with rice wine and recite poems and have fun when the yellow chrysanthemums are in bloom?
When yellow chrysanthemums are in full bloom, it is Mid-Autumn Festival.
Counting the days, today is August 27th in the Gregorian calendar, and there is still one month left until the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The original body's birthday is July 18th of the lunar calendar, which is the day after tomorrow.
There will be a big market here tomorrow, and she thought about catching more seafood and bringing it to the market to see if she could exchange it for something.
I heard from Sun Meimei and others that you can barter or pay directly at the fair.
There is not much meat in this crab, and people here don't want it. She can keep it for herself, but if she can catch some fish, maybe she can really exchange it for some money or food and other items.
Song Shiwei threw the crab into the bucket and searched hard between the rocks.
Suddenly she saw a black object.
When I picked it up with pliers, I found it was actually a fat and big sea cucumber!
The picture comes from the Internet
This is a good thing, it would be very valuable if you sell it!
It seems that whatever you think about will come true!
This wave brings a lot of good things!
She picked up seven or eight such big sea cucumbers in a row.
Song Shiwei was very happy. It seemed that she had found what she needed for the market tomorrow.
At this moment, she heard Zhou Cheng calling her: "Mom, look what this is?"
Song Shiwei rushed over with a bucket and took a look. The opened reef was densely packed with abalone as big as the palm of his hand, at least twenty or thirty of them!
The picture comes from the Internet
Song Shiwei was overjoyed.
"This is the wrinkled abalone! Commonly known as the four-hole abalone, it is a high-quality species in the abalone family and is known as the best seafood! This is a good thing! The nutritional value is very high! The meat is a famous delicacy, and the shell is called stone cassia, which can be used in traditional Chinese medicine to clear away heat and improve eyesight!"
She has also made various abalone-based delicacies, and thinking back on them now, she can't help but drool.
Zhou Lin hurriedly said: "I know that abalone and sea cucumber are only eaten by rich people!"
So, it goes without saying how precious this thing is.
Song Shiwei shoveled off the generals' caps one by one and put them into the bucket.
A total of twenty-six were shoveled down!
Zhou Xiaomei would circle around her from time to time to see what she had caught.
She did catch a lot of crabs, at least half a bucket. When she saw Song Shiwei using a shovel to shovel out the particularly ugly and unsightly shell, she couldn't help but curl her lips. Isn't this thing too ugly? The soft meat inside is still twisting and turning!
My hair stands on end when I see her!
It's a good thing she can eat such disgusting food!
Anyway, she was quite satisfied with her bucket. It could be eaten by simply steaming it, without any seasoning!
When the tide started to rise, Song Shiwei helped Xiao Cui review the characters she had learned yesterday and learned some new characters, then he led Zhou Cheng and the others back.
For dinner, she cooked a pot of cornmeal porridge, stir-fried eight feet with spicy sauce, steamed a few crabs, and made two bowls of steamed eggs with clams for Zhou Wei and Xinxin.
There were a lot of mantis shrimps yesterday, so she made stir-fried mantis shrimps with green onions.
The children and Zhou Tingyue all enjoyed the meal very much.
After dinner, I also have to make the canned fruit that I promised Xinxin.
I've been busy working on the oven since I got home last night, and forgot about the canning.
This canned fruit is also easy to make.
But first, she had to sterilize the canned fruit bottles by boiling them in water.
This way it can be stored for a longer time without going bad.
Then wash the peaches, peel and core them, cut them into small pieces, and put them in a pot with rock sugar and cook for about twenty minutes. Pour them into sterilized cans and let them cool.
Although Zhou Wei and Xinxin were full, they were still standing aside and watching with envy.
Song Shiwei was afraid of scalding them, so she didn't dare let them taste it: "Wait a while, you can eat it when it's cool!"
As he was speaking, he suddenly heard a noise outside the door.
"Song Shiwei is harming people!!! It was Song Shiwei who harmed my little Douzi!! My poor son!!"
"Song Shiwei, come out! If anything happens to my son, I will fight you to the death!"
