Yingyue is very sincere.
Huo Cheng laughed, "Like what?"
"We're like big idiots, eating bran while holding onto white rice."
Huo Cheng was taken aback by Yingyue's description, but after realizing what she meant, he chuckled softly.
"Is Yueyue craving meat again? Or is she thinking about seafood?"
"It's not that I want to eat them, it's that we're supposed to eat them anyway, aren't we at sea?"
Is it appropriate to not eat seafood at sea? It's such a waste.
In short, Yingyue just wants to eat seafood and meat, and doesn't want to eat cabbage or radishes.
Huo Cheng glanced at the sea outside. They were already very far from the port. Now that they wanted to go out to sea to catch seafood, they didn't have to worry about being talked about by others.
But the ship still had to keep moving forward; it couldn't stop and wait for them.
"Then, when we rest tonight, Yueyue can go catch seafood again?"
Why wait until night?
Yingyue was very curious.
Huo Cheng explained with a smile that the ship was sailing normally and if she went into the sea now, the ship would have to stop and wait for her.
This is inappropriate.
Yingyue understood.
"No need to wait!"
She patted her chest and assured them that she could easily catch up with the ship and let them sail normally.
"Yueyue..."
Huo Cheng disagreed, "Have you forgotten what I told you before?"
His girlfriend is too outstanding; she needs to keep a low profile and not be too flashy, or she'll attract attention.
Firefly Moon...
I remember now.
But I'm still unhappy.
She pouted, helplessly slumped back onto the table, and had no desire to eat anything.
This made Huo Cheng very distressed.
"Yueyue..."
"I'll sneak off tonight," Yingyue muttered softly.
Huo Cheng was amused by her appearance and reached out to touch her hair.
"good."
After much coaxing and persuasion, he managed to get his wife to eat a bowl of rice.
When night fell and all was quiet, the boat stopped at sea to allow everyone to rest. Yingyue quietly got up, carrying several large burlap sacks on her back, and jumped into the sea.
At night, there are many bioluminescent fish on the seabed.
Yingyue had glasses given to her by Huo Cheng that allowed her to see clearly in the dark at night. After putting them on, she could move freely underwater.
First, catch a sack full of big crabs.
Let's grab another sack of lobsters.
A whole sack of abalone!
After filling the three sacks, she tied them to the rope lowered from the boat, and gently tugged the rope, allowing Huo Cheng on the boat to pull the items out of the water.
Then she continued to dive deeper into the sea.
Having collected enough items, Yingyue was still a bit playful and wanted to go to the seabed to collect pearls.
She actually found a very large clam shell in the coral reef, and inside the heavy shell, there must have been many large pearls.
Since Yingyue didn't have the tools to open the clam shell, she picked up the whole clam shell, which weighed about 100 pounds, and returned to the boat.
Although she could stay underwater for ten days or half a month without any problem, she couldn't stay long because she had promised Huo Cheng.
It obediently clung to its clam shell and emerged from the sea.
Huo Cheng was waiting for her where she went into the water.
Upon seeing someone emerge, he immediately reached out to pull her onto the boat.
"Wait a moment."
Yingyue handed over the clam shell she was holding.
Huo City...
After carrying the things onto the boat, Yingyue had already climbed onto the boat herself.
As soon as she boarded the boat, she couldn't wait to open the oyster shell and see if the pearl inside was as big as an egg.
Helpless, Huo Cheng went to the tool warehouse and found some tools to help pry open the tightly closed clam shell.
"Such big pearls, so many of them!"
What catches the eye is a nest of pearls, the largest being the size of an egg and the smallest the size of a pigeon egg.
There were at least twenty of them, growing densely together.
The flawless white pearls made Yingyue's eyes light up.
That's amazing.
She used a knife to cut off the pearls; there were twenty pearls in total, and she took eighteen of them.
I need a good number.
The remaining two pearls will be left to their owner who painstakingly nurtured them.
"Alright, let's throw it back into the sea."
Yingyue clapped her hands and, together with Huo Cheng, threw the clam shell into the sea.
Watching it sink into the sea, she returned to the deck and put her pearls in her pocket.
“I’m going to keep these pearls. When we go home to visit our families, I’ll give them to my grandma and mom.”
Yingyue, who loves searching for treasures, hasn't forgotten her mother and grandmother.
And of course, there's my sister-in-law from the family compound.
They will definitely get a share.
Huo Cheng smiled and tapped her nose. "Such fine pearls are a rare sight. Why don't you keep some for yourself?"
"Do you like Huo Cheng?"
Yingyue asked in confusion.
"I'll get you more if you like."
"Yuyue doesn't like it?"
"Hmm... I prefer things that are shiny, like gold, and things that glow."
Yingyue frowned seriously, thought for a moment, and then answered.
"Pearls are beautiful, but they don't shine without light."
It's not shiny enough.
The price wasn't high enough, so Yingyue didn't really like it.
Huo City...
I see, his wife probably likes things like gold.
"Should we go back to the room and change first?"
"OK!"
The couple went back to their room together. Yingyue went to change her clothes, while Huo Cheng waited outside.
He went in after she had changed her clothes.
The two of them squeezed together on Huo Cheng's small bed and slept for a while longer.
It was dawn soon after.
