After having breakfast, Lu Jingnian rushed off to work.
Xiang Wanwan walked into the yard, where the vegetables she had planted were already as tall as a hand.
The growth rate is encouraging.
"Comrade Xiang, are you going to go beachcombing again today?"
She looked in the direction of the voice and saw it was Aunt Sun.
There are still two blue crabs left from yesterday's collection, but Xiang Wanwan plans not to collect any more today. She'll take care of the bed situation first.
She walked to the courtyard gate and asked Sister Sun with a smile, "Sister-in-law, do you know anyone around here who can make beds?"
"What's wrong? Is your bed broken?"
Aunt Sun looked at Xiang Wanwan with a meaningful smile.
That's what you call young people!
I've only been here a few days and I've already broken the bed.
Chief Lu has great stamina.
Seeing Sun's smile, Xiang Wanwan knew that she must have misunderstood, but she didn't want to correct her.
She couldn't very well say that she wanted to sleep in a separate bed from Lu Jingnian because of her bad sleeping posture.
"Oh, no! I just don't feel comfortable sleeping on it, so I want to change it."
Xiang Wanwan explained.
But her explanation didn't seem to have any effect.
Aunt Sun waved her hand, leaned closer and whispered, "I understand, I've been through this before."
Xiang Wanwan was completely speechless.
Never mind, let's leave it at that!
"Then, sister-in-law! Do you know who can do it?"
After thinking for a moment, Aunt Sun replied, "I don't think so. But I do have an empty bed at home, and it's quite sturdy. Do you want it?"
"Sure! As long as it's sturdy."
"Okay, I'll have someone move it over for you later. But, can I trade this bed for some seafood?"
After saying that, Aunt Sun felt a little embarrassed.
"I'm unlucky. I never find anything good when I go there, but my son at home keeps asking for fish."
"So, that's why..."
Xiang Wanwan understood.
It turns out that when Aunt Sun came over today to ask if she wanted to go beachcombing, she actually wanted to trade something with her.
Now that I've asked for a bed, I can trade it to her for seafood, which would be a win-win situation.
Xiang Wanwan smiled at Sister-in-law Sun, "No problem, sister-in-law."
"I'm going to the beach right away."
Upon hearing this, Aunt Sun's face lit up with joy as she left.
Xiang Wanwan went back to the house to prepare her tools and then headed to the beach.
There weren't many people on the beach today; perhaps they didn't find anything good, so they simply didn't come.
She found a secluded spot and released the green sprite.
As soon as the little thing came out, it excitedly spun around in circles.
"Sweetie, I need fish today! It's up to you."
The green elf understood her words and turned to fly straight towards the tide.
A few minutes later, Xiang Wanwan stopped in a low-lying area.
This area was clearly sculpted by the tide, and there are many large rocks nearby.
She looked closely and saw ripples constantly spreading across the surface of the water in the low-lying area.
Then she saw a fish tail emerge from the water to breathe.
It's yellow-footed wax!
Xiang Wanwan immediately reached out and grabbed it.
It weighs over a pound, and there's more than one inside.
Unexpectedly, there were ten yellow-legged wax catfish in this low-lying area.
Yellow-footed cured pork has a delicate texture and delicious flavor. Most importantly, it has few bones, making it delicious whether steamed or used in soup.
These kinds of fish are usually caught by fishing, I never expected to find one today.
She took two more steps forward and found a lot of oysters under a large rock, and they were quite big.
Xiang Wanwan carefully scooped all the oysters off with a shovel.
This is good stuff!
In modern parlance, it's known as a beauty salon for women and a gas station for men.
Take all of these back with you and give Lu Jingnian a good boost.
A dozen minutes later, she had harvested twelve oysters, each weighing seven or eight ounces.
Steamed with minced garlic, it will surely be delicious. (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
