Chapter 454 Lobster is delicious, but I encountered an annoying brat.
Xie Hanchuan and the five children were very perceptive. Holding the rope binding the lobsters, they smiled and nodded at the vendor, then led Lin Luoxi away.
They took the lobster to a secluded spot, had Lin Luoxi put it away, and continued shopping.
It was probably close to the coast, and most of the things sold there were seafood and sea fish. After walking around for a while, Lin Luoxi and the others found that the prices offered by the vendors were indeed fair and even very cheap.
Along the way, I saw even smaller lobsters costing three taels of silver, and I couldn't help but admire the honesty of that vendor once again.
"Stop!" Just as Lin Luoxi and Xie Hanchuan were tired from their walk and were about to take the child out of the city to find a place for a picnic, several burly men emerged from the woods and blocked their carriage.
"Hand over all your valuables."
The bandits who blocked the road saw that Lin Luoxi was riding in a carriage drawn by two horses, and that the carriage was so spacious inside. They realized that these people were easy targets and that they could take advantage of them.
After pulling off this job, the brothers can enjoy their freedom for the next few months.
"You've finally come out. We've been waiting for you."
As early as when Lin Luoxi took out her money to buy lobsters, she noticed that there were malicious eyes staring at them.
I originally thought these people would make a move in the city, but who knew they would be so patient as to follow us to the outskirts.
"Oh, brother, listen, that woman is saying we've been here for ages. Is she waiting for us, hmm..."
The group exchanged lewd glances, then looked at Xie Hanchuan.
Seeing Xie Hanchuan's thin frame, he shook his head with pity.
"court death!"
When Xie Hanchuan saw these men looking at Lin Luoxi with such disgusting eyes, he immediately exploded. He shot out of the carriage like an arrow, and in a few swift movements, the heads of those burly men were instantly severed.
"Hey, honey, why did you kill them? So many corpses, what a waste of time dealing with them!"
Lin Luoxi frowned deeply when she saw the corpses lying all over the ground.
"I... I got excited for a moment."
"It's alright, honey, you wait in the carriage, I'll take care of it..." Xie Hanchuan saw Lin Luoxi frown, so he obediently walked to the carriage, took out a shovel from where the carriage had left, and started digging a hole.
“Daddy, let us help you too…” When Xie Zhili, Xie Zhiyan, Xie Zhiheng, and Xie Zhichu saw Xie Hanchuan digging a hole, the four boys took out their little shovels, jumped down, and immediately ran over to help dig the hole.
They weren't about to miss out on something so fun, so they busily dug a hole.
The father and his sons worked together with incredible speed and efficiency, and in no time they had dug a large pit. Xie Hanchuan went over, dragged the bodies of those people into the pit, buried them, and then got back into the carriage to continue driving.
Having finally found a place with beautiful mountains, clear water, stunning scenery, and lush grass, Lin Luoxi began setting up camp and laying out her picnic gear.
Today we're going to eat lobster, the kind of lobster I couldn't bear to eat in my past life, but in this life I can eat lobster freely.
Lin Luoxi had a kind of revenge spending habit, so she steamed all twenty-eight large lobsters she had bought.
If the pot couldn't hold all the lobsters, they'd grill them. Anyway, Lin Luoxi wouldn't feel right until she finished cooking all the lobsters.
"Mmm, Mom, this lobster is so delicious..." Several children playing in the stream smelled the aroma wafting from the pot and immediately ran over, their eyes fixed on the pot that was still burning.
"Okay, eldest, take your younger siblings to prepare some dipping sauce. It'll taste even better with dipping sauce." Looking at the five little foodies, Lin Luoxi ordered them around without any hesitation.
Yes, after these children became sensible and capable, Lin Luoxi became increasingly lazy.
She never interfered with anything the five children could do, which fostered their exceptional practical skills.
"Okay, Mother, wait a moment, it'll be ready soon..." Feeling a great sense of responsibility, Xie Zhili led Xie Zhiyan and the others to Xie Hanchuan's side and began fiddling with things.
After the children had prepared the dipping sauce, the shrimp in the pot were also steamed.
"Mommy, I've noticed that everything you like tastes delicious!" Little foodie Xie Leyao took a bite of shrimp and immediately flattered Lin Luoxi.
"Mmm, I think so too!" Xie Zhichu said something unusually reasonable.
"Mommy, do you think we can eat more seafood if we go to Uncle Jin's place...?"
Xie Leyao had heard that the town where Lin Wenjin and the others lived was very close to the sea.
"Okay, let's finish this lobster meal and head to Qingcheng right away."
The lobster meat was even better than the crab meat they had eaten before; it was bouncy, tender, and incredibly fresh. She couldn't wait to go to Qingcheng.
"Yay!" The children cheered excitedly upon hearing Lin Luxi's words.
Twenty-eight lobsters isn't a lot, but it's not enough for Lin Luoxi's family of seven, each of whom practices martial arts. Even if each person gets four lobsters, it's still not enough.
Seeing that the children enjoyed the food, Lin Luoxi planned that after arriving in Qingcheng and attending Lin Wenjin's wedding banquet, she would definitely take the children to stay by the sea for a while so that they could eat their fill.
Because he was craving seafood, Xie Hanchuan arrived in Qingcheng, which he had been longing to visit, in just one day and one night.
"Ah, Mother, I've discovered that there's even more seafood here than in Pingcheng."
As soon as the children got off the carriage, they saw that the vendors on both sides of Qingcheng were selling seafood and sea fish. They couldn't help but exclaim in surprise when they saw the large seafood.
"What a country bumpkin!" Some brat, hearing Xie Zhili and the others' surprised expressions, actually said something so unpleasant.
Xie Zhili saw that the other person was a child about the same age as him, so he didn't intend to argue with the locals.
They continued to look down at the lobster in front of them, which was even bigger than the lobsters they had eaten before, and their mouths were watering.
"What a country bumpkin! He can't even move when he sees such a big crayfish." Seeing that Xie and the others weren't paying attention to him, the brat became even more eager to get their attention.
Lin Luoxi frowned as she looked at the ill-mannered child. After scanning the surroundings, she noticed that the child's parents had clearly heard what their child was saying, but they didn't come out to stop him.
Thinking that it would be too beneath her to make a move, and considering Qingcheng's situation, she leaned in and whispered a few words in Xie Zhili's ear.
Then, he walked to his own carriage, reached in and waved his hand a few times, then came over and nodded to Xie Zhili.
"Haha, this country bumpkin has probably never seen a lobster before; he's staring at it without even blinking..."
The mischievous kid saw that Xie Zhili and the others ignored him, but Xie Zhili and the others were too good-looking, so he wanted to talk to them and continued to make noise in order to attract their attention.
