Chapter 252: Going to the Sea
As the sun sets, the sound of the waves gradually becomes quieter.
When Lin Mingyan woke up, a warm yellow sunset was shining on her, so warm that it was a little dazzling.
For a moment she didn't know what day it was.
But being the adaptable person she is, her brain wouldn't allow something this big to be ignored.
Lin Mingyan quickly remembered the fact that she had traveled through time and had to drag her tired body out of bed.
She touched the clothes in confusion. The icy and slippery material was something she had never worn in her previous life.
These damn rich people!
Even when she was in trouble, the clothes she wore were better than those worn by people hundreds of years later!
She went out cursing in her heart, only to see an old woman bending over, doing something unknown to her.
"Auntie, have you seen my husband?" Lin Mingyan decided to find her cheap husband first.
Aunt Feng straightened up and said with a dog-licking look on her face, "Hey, you're up. The fourth... fourth kid went to the beach."
"Going to the sea?" Lin Mingyan felt that the name "four boys" was a bit inappropriate, but she couldn't think of anything, so she could only ignore it.
Aunt Feng nodded: "Yes, the tide has receded now. Today happens to be a high tide, so there will be some seafood left."
Since they came back, they couldn't make any money and had no boat to go out to sea to fish, so they could only make a living by going to the sea.
It would be good if there is a high tide, and if you are lucky you can have a full meal.
During mid-tide and low tide, sometimes you can't even find a piece of kelp, and you can only pick up a few small snails to make soup.
When Lin Mingyan heard this, how could she be missing?
They are penniless now and will be hungry the next day. How can she lie at home?
She immediately said, "Auntie, do you have any tools at home? We have to go to the beach too!"
Aunt Feng thought to herself, do you all like to do this kind of thing?
They don’t think that going to the beach is just for fun, do they?
That's hard work.
They squatted there in the scorching sun and strong wind, and had to bend their waists and lower their heads to work.
Sometimes after digging for an hour and standing up, I feel dizzy and dizzy, and I may not have dug enough food for a day.
But she was too lazy to say these things, so she took out a basket and a small bamboo rake and gave it to her.
Lin Mingyan took it, looked at it, and asked, "Isn't it an iron rake?"
Although she has never done this work in reality, she has seen many videos of people going to the beach to catch seafood.
They are all iron rakes. After raking, you can find some clams, mussels and so on.
Aunt Feng snorted, "Iron rake, if I had an iron rake, I could pick up a lot of good stuff~"
Well, she didn't curse, but she mumbled like a house-elf.
Lin Mingyan could only shut up, after all, this was the person who saved her life.
Aunt Feng closed the door of the courtyard without locking it. Anyway, there was nothing in the house that could be stolen.
Lin Mingyan followed her onto the beach and walked for a long time. She pointed to the pile of rocks on the side and said, "Look, right over there. The fourth... fourth kid is probably flipping crabs."
Lin Mingyan looked at the light blue sea in front of her with a little excitement. This was the first time she had seen the sea in her life.
Because it was low tide, the waves hit us very gently, like a light kiss, retreating as soon as they touched.
She ran two steps excitedly, kicked off her shoes, and stepped into the water.
Oh my god~
What a crappy class!
Even if you don't have money to eat, you still have to come to the beach.
I really missed it in my previous life!
Fortunately, God had eyes and brought her to ancient times, where she could encounter such a beautiful sea!
Aunt Feng looked at her running around and shook her head, not understanding.
She found a place to squat with her back to the sun, picked up a bamboo rake, and started digging slowly.
Lin Mingyan was excited for a while, then felt a little embarrassed. After all, her life and death were hanging over her head, so she could only work.
She learned a lot from the short video and knew that many seafood would remain on the rocks, so she walked towards the Fourth Master.
The Fourth Master had never done this before, but he was smart. When he saw other fishermen turning over rocks and finding big crabs, he followed their example.
Fortunately, he exercises regularly and has adequate nutrition, so his arm strength is much better than those skinny fishermen.
Turning over stones is much faster.
But...the harvest was not satisfactory.
He turned over a large dark blue stone, and a snail the size of two little fingers fell down in fright.
Apart from these two things, there is nothing else inside.
Lin Mingyan came over to take a look and sighed with regret: "Ah...there's nothing."
There were no giant octopuses or crabs.
Seeing her with her head wrapped and feet bare, the Fourth Master quickly asked, "Why did you come out? Your injuries haven't healed yet!"
Lin Mingyan shook her head: "It's okay, I feel much better."
"Didn't you say we had trouble even getting food? That's why I came to check it out."
Fourth Master: ...
Is this a bit too serious?
Cha Cha is still injured. Is it bad to worry so much?
Without waiting for him to say anything, Lin Mingyan squatted down and followed his example to turn over a small stone.
He exclaimed, "Wow, crab!"
In the small puddle, a green crab opened its two large claws and stood up with a vigilant look on its face.
With quick eyes and hands, she took the bamboo rake and pressed it on the crab's head, letting it wave its two big claws and hold the rake.
The Fourth Master came over to take a look and saw that it was indeed a crab, a very big one!
He turned around and looked at his basket. There were only two small crabs in it, which he had caught after working hard for half an hour.
The sad thing is: his two crabs are not as good as Cha Cha's one.
Okay, this person is definitely Cha Cha.
As soon as she goes out, she can find all kinds of delicious food.
Lin Mingyan called him happily: "Old Four, Old Four, come and help me, I can't catch it."
The Fourth Master felt a little embarrassed when she called him that, so he could only step forward, hold the crab's back, and grab it with two fingers.
"Wow, you are so awesome!" Lin Mingyan decided to praise this young master in distress.
As long as he didn't have to sit still and wait for others to serve him, she would be happy to share a meal with him.
The Fourth Master curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly, remembering that when he was playing with the stone pot, she had praised him in the same way.
What a clever little thing, you really know how to talk!
The Fourth Master was already certain that the person in front of him was Cha Cha, but this Cha Cha was too vivid, and he became a little curious.
Besides, the message he sent out to the village is probably still on its way and no one has come to pick it up.
We still have to stay in the small fishing village during this period, so let's relax and have fun for a while.
When Cha Cha is cured, thinking back to the time when she longed to go to the beach, she will have fulfilled her wish.
The Fourth Master remained silent, and Lin Mingyan automatically defined him as "tsundere." Smiling, she followed him, carrying a basket, and continued to work...
