Start your day with lots of energy!
"Ring ring ring ring..."
The alarm clock rang, and another beautiful day began.
Chen Zhiyao, lying on the bed, yawned with her eyes half-closed, then lazily stretched.
Even earlier than her were the birds outside the window, chirping and searching for food.
Listening to the crisp birdsong outside the window, Chen Zhiyao grabbed a set of casual clothes and put them on, then quickly tied her hair into a bun.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Chen Zhiyao shamelessly boasted, "How can I be so beautiful!"
The author's writing skills are poor, and they are not good at describing things, so please look at the pictures for yourselves.
Today's breakfast was thick sweet potato porridge, served with salted duck eggs and pan-fried small pomfret.
The food at home is so good that Chen Zhiyao's face has become noticeably rounder after only a week back.
My double chin is also showing signs of life, and it feels like it might grow out at any moment.
Chen Zhiyao was debating whether to eat less when Grandma Chen quickly served her a large bowl of sweet potato porridge.
Then, with a smile, he picked out the largest golden pomfret for her.
"Eat more, look how thin your face is."
The old lady's eyes were full of gentle and loving smiles, and Chen Zhiyao couldn't refuse at all. She picked up the heavy bowl and began to eat heartily.
Seeing her granddaughter eating with gusto, the old lady's smile deepened, and she gave her another salted duck egg that she had made herself.
"You can do it yourself, Grandma, you go and eat your breakfast, don't worry about me."
"Okay, okay."
Chen Zhiyao took a bite of the perfectly salted duck egg and couldn't help but think that if her grandmother switched to raising pigs, she would definitely do very well.
Pshaw, she's not a little piglet.
At that moment, Yan Shuting's cheerful voice rang in my ears:
"Today happens to be the 3rd, it's market day in town. Tangtang, after we come back from the beach, do you want to go to the market with me?"
Every 3rd and 8th of the month, there is a big market in the town. At this time, many people bring their own goods to set up stalls, and there are also many delicious snacks. It is very lively and fun.
Chen Zhiyao nodded her little head with great interest, "Okay, I haven't really been to the town market much since I started working."
Chen Zhiyao didn't spend too much time going to the market later because she was going to catch seafood.
After picking up a few octopuses and two large blue crabs on the rocky beach, we went straight to find the large puddles with fish traps set in them.
The first trap I used contained duck liver, and the harvest was surprisingly good.
Inside, there is a large sea bass weighing about 4 pounds and a giant rock goby weighing nearly half a pound.
"This thing is bigger than the palm of your hand; it must be an ancestor of Shi Jiugong."
The thorns on Shi Jiugong's body are poisonous; if you get hurt, it will hurt for at least two days.
Therefore, Chen Zhiyao was very careful when taking the fish.
The second trap contained small, miscellaneous fish, so the catch was rather mediocre; there were only two small blue crabs weighing about three ounces each inside.
The third trap contained half a pig intestine, which had the strongest smell, and Chen Zhiyao had high hopes for it.
However, as soon as she got her hands on it, she sensed something was wrong; the cage felt incredibly light.
When they pulled it up, there was indeed nothing inside.
The bait inside the trap was gone, and there was a huge hole directly in front of it.
It seems there was a big one inside, but unfortunately it got away.
Looking at the large puddle in front of her, Chen Zhizhi suddenly perked up again, "Maybe this big guy is still in the puddle."
Chen Zhiyao immediately activated the X-ray vision function, and the upgraded X-ray glasses indeed allowed her to see a wider range.
However, the puddle in front of her was about six or seven square meters in size, and she could only see the outermost part of it.
Chen Zhiyao had no choice but to walk around the puddle, but she could only see the outermost edge; she couldn't see the bottom of the puddle at all.
Inside the puddle, a small blue-skinned catfish weighing a little over a pound was swimming near the outside.
Chen Zhiyao quietly picked up the net and swiftly and accurately scooped the little guy up.
"Not bad, it weighs at least one and a half pounds."
These bluefin tuna are quite expensive; this one alone is probably worth 100 yuan.
However, the puddle was too big, and the bottom was too far away from him, so he couldn't see what was below at all.
Chen Zhiyao couldn't do anything about the big puddle, so she had to get up and go find the fourth ground cage.
The fourth trap contained pig lungs, but the harvest was mediocre, with only two golden pomfret weighing a little over a pound each.
As for the fifth water trap containing pig liver, it was noticeably heavier than the previous ones.
"Here it comes! Finally, a big one!" Feeling the weight of the cage, Chen Zhiyao was incredibly excited.
Soon, she saw the big fish inside: a sea bass weighing over 6 pounds, and a small rockfish weighing about 2 or 3 ounces.
As for the last trap, I don't know if it's because the bait was mixed, but the contents inside were very mixed.
One blue crab, one small golden pomfret, two rockfish, and one sea bass weighing over two pounds.
It includes almost all the catch from the previous few fish traps.
For the first group of traps, pig liver, duck liver, and mixed bait are the most effective.
As for the pig intestines, since the contents have escaped, the effects are still unknown.
After spending a long time at the first set of fish traps, by the time Chen Zhiyao arrived at the coral reef, the seawater had almost receded to the very back.
ebb tide
The first group had a good harvest. Chen Zhiyao walked happily to the first fish trap.
Using the same duck liver, the harvest was similar to the previous one: a large sea bass weighing four or five pounds and a bluefin bream weighing about two pounds.
As for the second fish trap containing small miscellaneous fish, it only contained two octopuses and a rock goby weighing about three ounces.
What surprised her most was that the cage containing pig intestines actually contained a large red pig weighing over 5 kilograms.
Looking at this big red thing, Chen Zhiyao was extremely excited and even unilaterally declared that pig intestines were the most effective.
The fourth trap, which contained pig lungs, yielded a mediocre harvest: three small stone gobies weighing around three ounces each.
As for the fifth cage for holding pig liver, it was broken, with a fist-sized hole on each of the left and right sides.
I just don't know whether it was cut by the sharp rocks below or bitten by a big fish in the sea.
The last mixed trap yielded a very fruitful harvest.
One two-pound wrasse, two golden pomfret, two octopuses, one large blue crab, and one small sea bass weighing over two pounds.
If you don't count the two broken traps, the harvest was actually quite good.
When Chen Zhiyao drove back to Baisha Beach, Yan Shuting was carrying things and walking back from the beach.
Yan Shuting's bucket contained quite a few things, but most of them were cheap small seashells. The most valuable items were probably a large blue crab and a few octopuses.
When the mother and daughter returned home, they first took the wet basket out to dry in the sun.
Then simply categorize today's catch.
After changing into clean clothes, Chen Zhiyao hurriedly set off for town with her mother and a large bag of fish.
Thinking about the big fish in the car, Chen Zhiyao felt very excited, feeling that today's harvest was no worse than yesterday's.
