There are people on the beach, but not too many.
More than half an hour later, Su Qinghu was holding the bucket and looking at the vast ocean, and he began to feel dazed.
This sea... is quite difficult to catch...
The little girl Zhao Chang also fell into deep thought, staring at a skinny clam and a cat's eye snail in Su Qinghu's bucket. After a long time, she sighed.
"Auntie," she began, then caught sight of something out of the corner of her eye. Grabbing the bucket, she rushed to the right, looking back as she went, "Let's give up the race! Don't worry, just take your time and explore the beach. When we get back, I'll give you half of my catch."
Zhao Chang ran away in an instant. Su Qinghu coughed lightly, glanced in the direction of Chen Lie and Xiao Lituaner, and walked over there with the bucket in hand, looking for seafood.
But before she could get close, Chen Lie carried Xiao Li Tuaner to the shore, walked towards her for a while, suddenly stopped, put Xiao Li Tuaner down, squatted down, fumbled out something, and handed it to the little guy.
Xiaoli Tuaner was also very brave. She took it without thinking, then looked at the things in her hand and then at the display.
Chen Lie smiled, wrapped his small hand with his big hand, and squeezed it slightly.
Under the curious gaze of the little guy, a circle of water column came out from the cat's eye snail that was quite big. Feeling the cat's eye snail meat getting smaller in his hand, Xiao Lituan'er's expression became strange, vividly demonstrating what it meant to be "hard to describe and with a tingling scalp".
"Dad, Dad!"
Xiao Lituan'er struggled with his little hands, trying to escape from this feeling, but was so frightened that he broadened his language and finally shouted out reduplications.
Chen Lie responded with a smile and let go of his son's hand. Then he saw the little hand withdrawn with a "whoosh", and the cat's eye snail, which had completely retracted into its shell, fell on the beach.
Xiao Lituaner stood on the beach, staring at the cat's eye snail for a long time, before looking up at the display.
The question glaring in his eyes—what’s wrong with this cat’s-eye snail?
Chen Lie smiled at him, as if he didn't understand what he meant and didn't seem to want to explain at all.
The little guy was anxious, and pointed at the cat's eye snail with his thin and soft fingers, "Dad."
Chen Lie was in no hurry to explain. Instead, he looked up and led Xiao Lituaner to a place. After picking out a cat's eye snail from the sand, he squeezed the cat's eye snail at an angle that the little man could see clearly.
Xiaoli Tuaner clung to Chen Lie's arm and was shocked to see the cat's-eye snail retract into its shell.
Su Qinghu came over and saw that her son looked like he had never seen the world. She rubbed his head and shook her head, "If I had known earlier, Mom would have caught a snail for you."
"Mom." Hearing Su Qinghu's voice, Xiaoli Tuaner loosened his hands that were clinging to Chen Lie's arms and hugged Su Qinghu's thighs instead.
He softly grasped Su Qinghu's trouser leg with one hand and pointed at the cat's eye snail that had retracted into its shell. After thinking for a moment, he tilted his head back to look at Chen Lie who had stood up, "Dad."
The meaning was to ask him to show it to Su Qinghu as well.
Chen Lie, with Su Qinghu's smiling eyes, took the mother and son to look for cat's eye snails. After finding them, he showed Su Qinghu the process of the cat's eye snail retracting in front of Xiao Lituaner.
"Cat-eye snail." Su Qinghu taught Xiao Lituaner to recognize things word by word.
Xiao Lituan'er couldn't say three words yet, but after reading them separately for a few times, he smiled with his baby teeth when Su Qinghu gave him a thumbs up.
In his understanding, this means right, good, and praiseworthy.
Su Qinghu did not continue to teach him anything, but simply explained how the cat's eye snail retracted into its shell.
The emphasis is on explaining, not on forcing children to understand.
Xiao Lituaner blinked, not knowing whether he understood or not. When he suddenly raised his eyes, he realized that his father had picked him up again.
He took advantage of this height to look into the distance, and finally pointed with his little hand and shouted into the distance: "Brother."
Chen Lie looked over there, then turned to look at Su Qinghu and asked, "Shall we go over there?"
"How about..." Su Qinghu waved his bucket in front of Chen Lie's eyes, and before he could see the contents clearly, he said, "Shall we search all the way back?"
"Oh, by the way, do you know how to go to the beach?" Su Qinghu frowned, "I can't lose too badly..."
Chen Lie was tall, so even if Su Qinghu had hidden the stab behind his back, he could still see it clearly.
The cat's eye snail is of decent size, but that razor clam... is really too shabby.
Su Qinghu felt guilty. He stared at the clams in the bucket for a while, then looked up and said vaguely, "How about I release it?"
Actually, I am a little reluctant...
"Take it." Chen Lie couldn't help laughing, "After all, this is the first razor clam you've ever caught."
Hearing him say this, Su Qinghu breathed a sigh of relief.
Then I heard him say, "Any amount is meat."
Su Qinghu: "..."
Chen Lie walked forward holding Xiao Lituaner in his arms. Su Qinghu stared at his broad back, snorted and chuckled, and at the moment when he deliberately paused, she followed him and walked side by side with him.
After walking for a while, Chen Lie stopped, put the little man beside him, bent down, took the bucket from Su Qinghu's hand, took the shovel and salt, and started to move.
Then, under the shocked gazes of the big and small, Chen Lie caught five or six fat clams and threw them into the bucket.
Little Li Tuaner scratched the edge of the pot and looked inside eagerly.
This thing will also shrink into its shell~
Su Qinghu looked at Chen Lie and sighed, "Is this the difference between people?"
Chen Lie laughed and teased, "No matter how different they are, they are all registered in the same household register, so there's no need to be too sentimental."
"But are these the only two things you can find when you go to the beach?" Su Qinghu was puzzled. "What about crabs? What about fish? Clams?"
Didn't she see it, or is it not here?
"mom!"
Erdan roared, and Su Qinghu subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound, and then saw his raised hand and the not-so-small crab in his hand.
Erdan rushed to the three of them and pushed the crab directly in front of Xiaoli Tuaner. Xiaoli Tuaner was so frightened by the crab that suddenly appeared in his sight with its claws and fangs bared that he fell on his butt.
After being stunned for a while, he got up by himself. Knowing that the thing was under control by his brother and would not hurt him, he went over to take a look.
"Little Lituaner, look at how powerful your brother is?" Erdan grinned and laughed proudly.
Xiaoli Tuaner: "Brother."
"It's a crab. Brother is really amazing. He can catch such a big crab." Erdan said excitedly, "Hey, come and say it with brother, crab."
Xiaoli Tuaner followed along.
Su Qinghu watched the two brothers finish their conversation before speaking, "Erdan, remember not to be so sudden next time. Give him time to adapt to new things."
Erdan scratched his head and said, "I know I was wrong."
"I'm sorry." Erdan touched Xiaoli Tuan'er's head, "Brother was wrong."
Xiaolituaner blinked and suddenly a new word came out of her mouth, which was the second most mentioned word in Erdan's previous words.
