Chapter 72: Little bastard, I am your father!
After two slaps, the kids finally behaved themselves.
And Cheng Yang also rushed over.
Seeing his children all pouting and looking extremely aggrieved, he felt very distressed.
But his wife was so powerful that he didn't dare say anything in rebuttal. He could only step forward, pick up his daughter and put her directly on his shoulders.
Where has Mingxi ever enjoyed such treatment?
She screamed in fright and quickly grabbed her father's hair with both hands.
Xiao Ai was almost mad when she saw this scene!
My daughter's back is still broken! What if she loses balance and falls backward, worsening the injury?
She was so angry that she rushed over and slapped Cheng Yang on the arm: "You throw her down again!"
"How is that possible?" Cheng Yang laughed.
No matter how confident he was, thinking about his daughter's back that had not yet fully grown, Shi Xiaoai was still very determined to take Mingxi back from him.
But just as she put the child on the ground, Cheng Yang turned around, pinched Mingrui's armpits and lifted him above his head.
Shi Xiaoai: "..."
Mingrui had never enjoyed such treatment in his life. The child was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head a little embarrassedly.
A blush crept up his cheeks little by little, and his eyes became bright and shining.
Cheng Yang couldn't see his son's expression clearly, so he shook him, adjusted his position, and said loudly, "Son, hold on to daddy's head. Let's go!"
Mingrui quickly went to hug his father, but it was obvious that he had no idea where to put his hands. The child thought for a moment, then tightly grasped Cheng Yang's ears.
You can see he's trying quite hard.
Cheng Yang was caught off guard. He hissed and cursed, "I'm your father, little bastard! You're really willing to use all your strength!"
Then he raised his voice again: "Let's go to see the sea!"
After saying that, he strode forward with Octavia.
Just looking at the back you can see that he is showing off.
Mingxi was snatched away by her mother and put on the ground. She didn't react at first.
Then she watched as her father picked up her brother and placed him on the neck where she had once sat!
The little girl's eyes were wide open, her face full of shock, and she obviously couldn't understand why things turned out like this?
When Cheng Yang started walking forward with Mingrui, the little girl finally realized that she had been abandoned when she looked at their backs!
She looked at the two people in front of her, then looked at Shi Xiaoai, her face full of accusations!
The child felt wronged when she saw the two people walking further and further away with no intention of taking her with them.
She pouted and said, "Mom, I want to sit on your neck too!"
Before he could finish his words, tears started to flow uncontrollably.
Shi Xiaoai: "..."
Looking at the happy father and son in front of her, and then at her little girl who was about to cry, she suddenly felt a little itchy in her teeth.
By the time Xiao Ai finally coaxed her daughter to walk to the reef, the father and son had already boarded the boat.
Seeing them, Mingrui waved his hands vigorously and shouted excitedly: "Mom, Mom, come and see, there are such big fish here, so long!"
As he spoke, he stretched his arms out to the sides and exaggeratedly puffed out his chest to prove that the fish was really huge.
In fact, Xiao Ai was already excited when she walked to the back of the reef, because she saw the temporary stalls she had not seen for a long time.
It’s not really a stall, it’s just a street stall.
Five or six fishermen spread out old fishing nets and rotten straw mats on the leeward beach and placed some sea fish on them.
It was obvious that the sea fish had not been out of the water for long and looked very fresh.
Shi Xiaoai took a casual look and saw sea crucian carp, small yellow croaker, horse mackerel, blackhead carp, and a basket of pink and tender octopus that looked so pleasing to the eye!
She felt like her mouth was watering.
But seeing her son so happy, Shi Xiaoai believed that there must be something better on the boat, so she picked up her daughter and walked over.
At this time, Cheng Yang had already jumped off the boat. He took Mingxi and did not forget to free up one hand to pull Shi Xiaoai.
Shi Xiaoai didn't forget that person who had just deliberately put the blame on her. She was so angry that she slapped Cheng Yang's hand. The person who slapped her laughed out loud again regardless of the occasion.
"If you laugh again and Mingxi falls, I will never forgive you."
Seeing many people looking over here, Shi Xiaoai was angry but really had no way to deal with this man, so she could only stare at him and utter harsh words again.
"Don't laugh, don't laugh." Cheng Yang knew that if he teased his wife again, she would really be angry, so he quickly tried to keep a straight face and grabbed her little hand.
As the two of them got closer, Shi Xiaoai couldn't help but ask, "How can you set up a stall here? No one's in charge?"
Cheng Yang looked around and whispered, "I just asked, and they said their village has been living in this area since ancient times, relying on selling fish for food, and the government doesn't care. I don't know the specific situation."
When Cheng Yang was explaining, Xiao Ai actually knew that her question was a bit redundant.
She, a local who was born and raised here, actually asked such questions to a stranger who had just arrived here a few days. Fortunately, Cheng Yang didn't think much of it.
She nodded and didn't continue the topic.
As Octavia had said, the fish on this boat were more diverse and of higher quality than those down there.
Here are big knife fish that are as wide as a palm and almost two meters long, as well as big sea bass that are almost as tall as the cubs.
There are also pomfret, flatfish, various shrimps...
Xiao Ai even saw someone selling puffer fish.
Although it is not the pufferfish spawning season and the poison is not that strong, she really can't bear to think about how non-professionals will deal with this thing after buying it. Aren't they afraid of poisoning?
Cheng Yang couldn't help laughing when he saw his wife's eyes seemed to be stuck on the seafood and couldn't be pulled away.
He waved his hand in front of Shi Xiaoai's eyes and said, "How about you just take a look here while I take them to the beach to play for a while? Once you've chosen something, leave it here and I'll come get it later."
"Well, don't go too far." Shi Xiaoai pushed his hand away and answered absentmindedly.
Cheng Yang took the children to play, and Shi Xiaoai started asking prices at each stall.
This question made her calm down immediately.
She asked why people were scrambling to buy even dried shrimps in the market, when there were such fresh and abundant seafood but few people were buying. It turned out that it was because these vegetables were extremely expensive!
At the current market, if you use meat coupons, a pound of hind leg meat costs around 1.5 yuan, and pork belly is slightly cheaper. Occasionally, you'll find beef for sale, and whether you can grab it or not is not certain, but a pound of boneless meat costs no more than 1.8 yuan.
Here, sea bass is sold for two dollars and twenty cents per pound!
Even the most common small yellow croaker was sold for 1.8 yuan per catty.
You have to know that Yuncheng is a coastal city, and the people living here have never lacked this thing since childhood.
Even though it is winter and things are a little expensive, the prices are so outrageous that it would be strange if there were many people willing to buy them.
Just as Xiao Ai was looking at all the good things and felt sorry for the money in her pocket, a loud voice suddenly sounded behind her: "Hey, Xiao Ai, why are you here?"
She quickly turned around and saw Master Liu, accompanied by a thin, dark man, climbing up the ladder and just showing his head.
