"real?"
The chubby girl's eyes lit up, her pupils crinkling into slits with laughter.
Lin Ziyan nodded, then said, "Of course."
Sunlight filtered through the gaps and fell on their faces, as if a filter had been applied to them.
A radiant smile, facing the light…
Afterwards, the two went to the market to sell handmade lemon tea.
The chubby girl learns very quickly and can even offer methods for adjusting the flavor.
Lin Ziyan made lemon tea according to her method, and it did taste better than the one she had made before.
"Fatty, you're amazing!" Lin Ziyan praised generously, giving a thumbs-up.
"All I know how to do is eat," the chubby girl said shyly, her ears turning red.
She has no talent in other areas, but she has a knack for food; she can tell the saltiness of food just by smelling it.
"Drinks are a type of food, and knowing how to eat well is a skill!"
Lin Ziyan affirmed her again.
She always felt that most people who are good at cooking are naturally gifted.
Some people can make a dish just by looking at a recipe or watching a cooking video.
The chubby girl smiled, feeling a little embarrassed by the compliment, but in a good mood.
…
After selling their lemon tea, the two returned to the village and went home separately.
Lin Ziyan put down her things, picked up a small shovel and a small bucket, and went to dig for shrimp bait.
She still remembered to look for shrimp species.
Lin Ziyan, wearing a large straw hat and fully equipped, went out carrying her tools.
She planned to dig up bait and then go to the beach to fish for shrimp.
The original owner's father must have been a fishing enthusiast, and the family had very professional fishing rods.
On the other side of the small fishing village, there is a reef that is particularly suitable for fishing.
On a hot summer day, villagers in the fishing village are working in the fields.
Almost no one goes to that rock.
Fishing relies heavily on luck; the chances of catching shrimp or fish are even lower than winning the lottery.
Therefore, the villagers in the fishing village almost never go fishing.
When Lin Ziyan arrived at the reef, as she expected, there was no one there.
She prepared the bait, set up the fishing rod, and sat down to wait.
From the beige cloth bag, I took out pencils, colored pencils, a drawing board, and paper.
For the first time since her rebirth, Lin Ziyan relaxed and took a good look at this small fishing village.
Not far away, villagers were working in the fields, their faces to the earth and their backs to the sky.
On the rocky beach at low tide, some people were gathering seafood with long tongs and buckets.
She closed her eyes, feeling the gentle sea breeze, a faint salty scent mixed with a refreshing aroma.
Lin Ziyan picked up a pencil and sketched the outline of the fishing village, still in the form of a comic strip.
One by one, the figures leap onto the drawing paper.
She was completely immersed in it, and when she was coloring, she didn't even have to think; she just went by feeling.
In Lin Ziyan's writing, a drab little fishing village instantly becomes vivid and childlike.
"Such a unique painting technique."
A sudden male voice startled Lin Ziyan.
However, she had already finished painting it, otherwise it might have been ruined.
A glint of light flashed in Lu Yun's deep black eyes.
He was feeling frustrated because of the new boat technician incident, so he decided to go fishing to calm down.
Unexpectedly, he saw Lin Ziyan painting, and in a way he had never seen before.
"Just some random drawing," Lin Ziyan said casually, putting away the drawing, leaning back in her chair, and looking out at the sea.
She had no intention of talking to him, nor did she want to get to know the man in front of her.
The man was wearing a foreign brand watch worth tens of thousands of yuan, and his clothes, though seemingly ordinary, were actually all from the G brand.
Lin Ziyan never dreams of being a Cinderella; she believes that living the life she wants through her own efforts is more realistic and reassuring.
She is rational and always knows exactly what she wants.
Lu Yunshen sensed her coldness, lifted his foot and walked to the side, preparing to go fishing.
The current Lin Ziyan is completely different from before.
The clear indifference in her eyes seemed to isolate her from everything, as if she wanted to enjoy her own world alone.
The two stood on opposite sides, not disturbing each other.
The shadows of the trees slanted, gradually obscuring the entire reef.
Lin Ziyan took a nap and enjoyed the peaceful moment.
She didn't wake up until the fishing rod made a sound and started reeling in the line.
She skillfully placed the shrimp that had bitten the bait into the small bucket, and then added more bait.
The bait Lin Ziyan used wasn't just bait; it was specially coated with a special agent to attract the shrimp species she wanted.
After that, the bait she placed seemed to have a cheat code, with shrimp constantly biting it.
In no time, she had caught a small bucket of shrimp.
Lu Yun Shen hadn't noticed it at first, but when he inadvertently saw the shrimp in her bucket, his dark eyes narrowed.
He's been fishing here, but he hasn't caught a single shrimp yet; it's all small fish.
The girl in front of me is on fire, she caught a whole bucketful?
Lin Ziyan packed her things, nodded to him, and left gracefully.
"interesting."
“Even fishing experts would have to admit defeat,” Lu Yunshen chuckled, a smile curving his lips.
…
Back in the courtyard.
Lin Ziyan cleaned a large water tank in the backyard, scrubbing it thoroughly.
Place the seaweed, pebbles, and rocks that you prepared beforehand into the tank.
She created a simulation environment in the same way she always had.
Lin Ziyan selected the shrimp fry and prepared to assist in the production of shrimp seedlings, following the method described in the thesis.
She was busy until evening, when the sun was setting, before she finally finished.
She planned to use the remaining shrimp to make a boiled shrimp dish.
"Ayan!"
The chubby girl's voice came from the doorway.
Lin Ziyan washed her hands carefully before leaving the backyard.
Today was a very fruitful day; it's definitely a day worth celebrating.
One hour later,
Under the grape trellis, on the stone table,
A plate of boiled shrimp,
A plate of braised pork,
