Chapter 308 Soy Milk

There was no way. There was so much seafood here that the two buckets they brought were not enough to hold it all.

This is just the shore...

If it's deeper, there will definitely be more seafood.

Liu Yinyin was thinking about learning to swim again, thinking that when she had the chance in the future, she could go to the bottom of the sea to catch fish and shrimps.

There is so much seafood that you definitely can’t finish it all, as they are all grown naturally.

The prices are not cheap, so don’t be too calculating when selling to the system.

Unable to resist the temptation, Liu Yinyin sold some seafood to the system while Gu Cheng was not paying attention.

In just a short while, I made thousands of dollars!

Near noon, the two returned with a full load. The sea water was cool, and after returning, Liu Yinyin went to take a bath first.

Aunt Zhou has already prepared a table of food.

While eating, Liu Yinyin told Aunt Zhou: "I found some bird's nests in the cave this morning, but I haven't processed them yet. Aunt, I will take them back first and bring them to you when I am done."

Liu Yinyin planned to give half of the bird's nests harvested in the morning to Aunt Zhou and sell the other half to the system.

However, although the bird's nest they found was of good quality, there were still a lot of stray hairs inside.

This thing is a huge project to handle and it's very tiring on the eyes.

Therefore, Liu Yinyin planned to clean it up herself and then send it to Aunt Zhou.

Aunt Zhou knew that bird's nest was a valuable commodity, so she said hurriedly, "I am already old, why would I eat that? Just keep it for yourself."

Liu Yinyin smiled and said, "You should supplement your body with nutrients when you are older. I am still young and I will have many opportunities to eat bird's nest in the future."

This trip yielded quite a lot, in addition to bird's nests, there were also two buckets of seafood.

Liu Yinyin originally wanted to save some for Aunt Zhou and the others.

But she didn't want it. They lived on the island and if they wanted to eat seafood, they could just go to the seaside and dig some.

Besides, Mr. Zhou also raises a lot of seafood himself.

Auntie Zhou also gave Liu Yinyin two packages of dried seafood, one package of dried sea cucumbers and one package of dried abalone, both of which were good stuff...

Aunt Zhou: "There are a lot of seafood here. I dried the ones I couldn't finish and stored them. I still have a lot at home. Please don't be polite."

Mr. Zhou usually likes to go to the beach to catch seafood.

Other people on the island would sometimes go out to sea and catch some fish and shrimp for Aunt Zhou.

Over time, Aunt Zhou collected a lot of dried goods.

Liu Yinyin couldn't refuse and had to accept it.

I thought to myself that I must bring more things for them next time.

The family of three returned to their home before dinner.

As soon as she got home, Liu Yinyin hurriedly poured out the seafood in the wooden barrel and replaced it with water.

This time the harvest was really good. We couldn’t eat so much seafood at home at once.

Liu Yinyin picked some out and planned to give some to Zheng Qiangwei, Ma Guilan and Xu Zhenzhen...

We gave two crabs to each family, one pound of octopus, and six abalones.

The rest can be kept for our own consumption, and the uneaten ones can be dried and sent to people back home later.

Gu Cheng is making dinner today, and Liu Yinyin has to deliver things to several families.

Zheng Qiangwei's house was next door, so Liu Yinyin brought the seafood to her first.

By this time Zheng Qiangwei had already finished get off work and had originally planned to go to the cafeteria to eat.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yinyin sent her so many seafoods. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment: "You specially took two days off just for this?"

Liu Yinyin smiled and said, "Just treat it as a game."

It’s actually quite nice to go out for a walk occasionally, just treat it as a trip.

Zheng Qianwei thought that going to work every day was boring, so she said to Liu Yinyin: "Next time we have a chance, Yiming and I will go and play too."

Ma Guilan sent back a bag of candied dates and a bag of fried dough twists she had made herself.

"The kids at home were clamoring for some, so I fried some myself, originally intending to give some to Yanyan."

The candied dates were sent by her parents, and were also made by the people in her parents' village. They are all good things.

"Thank you, sister-in-law." Liu Yinyin really likes this kind of purely natural thing without additives.

When Liu Yinyin went to Xu Zhenzhen's house, as soon as she got downstairs, she heard a quarrel coming from upstairs.

There was a clang, clang sound, as if something was still being dropped...

Xu Zhenzhen was also very worried: "Whenever Captain Wei comes back, the couple will have a fight. They have been fighting for two days now, making all the family members in the whole building restless."

Captain Wei?

Liu Yinyin asked in surprise: "Captain Wei Guodong?"

"Yeah, you know that too?" Xu Zhenzhen sighed, "These two are always quarreling or fighting."

It's really bad luck to live with such a person.

Xu Zhenzhen lowered her voice and said, "Captain Wei is unlucky to have married such a wife who causes trouble for him all the time. Captain Wei is almost losing face because of her."

Liu Yinyin suddenly realized and guessed what it was about.

Wei Guodong came back yesterday. He must have known that Zhu Weijuan was borrowing food from everywhere, so he was arguing with her.

Liu Yinyin said casually: "Captain Wei's wife came to my house to borrow food some time ago, but I didn't lend her any because I didn't know her well."

"Don't lend it to her. It's like throwing meat buns at a dog. It's gone forever." Xu Zhenzhen said, "His wife borrows things just to take advantage of others. She never returns them."

"This guy is also weird. Captain Wei's salary is not low, it is enough to support his family, why is he still thinking about those little profits all day long?"

"It's fine in the countryside, but now that he's in the army, he still can't change this habit. It's really embarrassing for Captain Wei..."

Liu Yinyin didn't have much to say to Zhu Weijuan. She stood up and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm going to go back and cook. I'll send Yanyan over as usual tomorrow."

"Okay, wait a moment..." Xu Zhenzhen thought of something and went to the kitchen to get a bag for Liu Yinyin.

"These are the soybeans my mother-in-law sent me. Take some home to eat."

There were not many vegetables to eat on the island. When her mother-in-law found out, it was not convenient to send vegetables directly to her, so she sent her a bag of soybeans.

This thing is also very good. You can grow bean sprouts to eat. If you have time, you can also make some tofu yourself.

I went out with a basket of seafood and never came back empty-handed.

Liu Yinyin carried the soybeans into the kitchen.

Gu Cheng’s dinner was almost ready: steamed crab, octopus with green onions and ginger, and a dish of pickled cabbage.

The staple food is white rice.

While eating, Liu Yinyin asked him, "Is there anyone selling stone mills on the island?"

Gu Cheng: "Want to buy a millstone?"

Liu Yinyin hummed: "Sister Zhenzhen just gave me a bag of soybeans, so I thought about buying a stone mill so that I can grind some soybean milk for Yanyan every now and then to supplement his nutrition."

Gu Cheng said: "How about buying some more milk powder?"

Liu Yinyin calculated carefully and said, "Let's switch between them. Soy milk is not worse than milk, and drinking soy milk is more cost-effective."

Milk powder was too expensive at that time, and you had to rely on connections to buy it.

It's not good to bother others all the time.
