Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Way Out
After figuring out this matter, Xu Tiantian was very happy in her heart, her nose was more sensitive than before, which meant that she could explore more types of seafood in the future.
For Xu Tiantian, who is still eating the sea and relying on the sea, it is undoubtedly great news.
"What did you suddenly think of again, why are you so happy?" Xuan Ye, who was always paying close attention to Xu Tiantian, was very curious when he saw that the expression on her face had been mysteriously indifferent.
After Xu Tiantian heard it, the smile on her face did not decrease, and she found a reason to prevaricate at random: "It's nothing, it's just thinking of some happy things."
"Oh! I'm a little curious about what makes you so happy. Hearing this, Xuanye's curiosity was aroused.
Xu Tiantian obviously didn't expect Xuan Ye to ask himself this time, looking at the basket of ice shrimp beside him, he suddenly thought of a reason: "I just thought that after picking up so many ice shrimp today, I can eat a good meal when I go back."
After speaking, Xu Tiantian swallowed her saliva very cooperatively, and her face was completely greedy.
After that, the two of them sat on the beach for a while, watched the sun rise higher and higher, and then went back with a basket of shrimp.
"Sister, Brother Xuan, you can be regarded as back, where did you go just now? I searched for a long time but couldn't find any trace of my sister. As soon as Xu Tiantian left, he saw a figure rushing towards him, and when he looked down, he found that it was Xu Yihan, who had not seen a trace all morning.
Xu Tiantian looked at Xu Yihan, who was holding his thighs, his eyes were full of tenderness, and he gently touched his head with his hand: "My sister and your brother went to the beach and picked up a lot of live shrimp." ”
"Really? Where the shrimp are, I want to see. When Xu Yihan heard this, his eyes widened with curiosity.
Because in the past, Xu Tiantian used to go to the beach or other places to get some seafood back, and by the time he saw it, most of those seafood had already died, so he was very curious after hearing Xu Tiantian's words.
Xuan Ye, who was walking behind, heard Xu Yihan's words, and directly put the basket in his hand on the ground for him to come and see.
Xu Yihan was like a curious baby, walked to the basket and squatted down, pointing at one of the shrimps with a look of surprise and staring wide-eyed: "Wow! This shrimp is so big, it's still jumping! ”
Xu Tiantian looked at him babbling, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he smiled very gently.
In a blink of an eye, it was noon, Xu Tiantian used the shrimp he picked up on the beach in the morning to make a dish of braised prawns, and fried a few plates of green vegetables.
And the rest of the shrimp, after lunch, Xu Tiantian took advantage of the fact that the sun outside was still bigger, and hurriedly dried all the shrimp, dried the water, and it was not easy to spoil, so that it was also convenient to store some, and when you wanted to eat it, soak it in hot water, and the soaked meat was still delicious.
After drying the shrimp, Xu Tiantian entered the house and saw that Xuan Ye was teaching Xu Yihan to write at this time, this scene looked very warm and unbearable.
At this time, Xu Tiantian suddenly thought of an important thing, and her good-looking brows slowly wrinkled together.
Since Xu Tiantian entered the house, Xuan Ye has been paying attention to her, and the slight change in her face naturally discovered: "Xiao Shi will practice by himself first, these words will be a while, and Brother Xuan will teach you the rest." ”
"Uh-huh." Xu Yihan, who was writing carefully, didn't raise his head when he heard it, so he nodded directly.
Looking at Xu Yihan's well-behaved appearance, he rubbed his head with his hand, got up and walked to Xu Tiantian's side: "What's wrong?" Why do you look sad? ”
"It's just that I suddenly thought that it was about to enter winter, and we didn't have prepared food for the winter, let alone the villagers in the village, if they weren't ready, I don't know how they should spend this winter?" After Xu Tiantian heard what he asked, she slept and said what she was worried about.
Hearing Xu Tiantian's worries, Xuan Ye thought of the situation here, and sighed worriedly: "Yes! The land here is barren and not suitable for growing food, and the villagers can only live on seafood, although this is the case, but few people in the village know how to fish, and few know seafood. ”
"I'm thinking of telling the villagers about the sea we discovered, so that they have one more way to live." Xu Tiantian tilted her head and thought, and suddenly thought that they had discovered that there were many seaweeds in that area, and they couldn't catch them all by a few of them, and the seafood there multiplied very quickly, as if it was inexhaustible.
Xuan Ye thought about it carefully after hearing this, and felt that it was indeed a good idea: "This is an idea, we can't eat so much ourselves, and the rest will be broken, so it's better to tell the villagers." ”
After the two of them discussed, they did not rush to tell the villagers, but planned to go to the village to tell them later.
Although the land here is barren, there is no one in the village who is idle, and all of them go to the beach to try their luck, or go up to the mountains to hunt for some silver to make a living, so there are probably not many people in the village at this time.
For a whole afternoon, Xu Tiantian and the others did not go out until it was getting dark, and it was estimated that the villagers had gone home one after another, so they were ready to go out.
"I'm going to Aunt Chen's house next door, so you can accompany Xiaoshi to practice calligraphy here!" Xu Tiantian was wearing some thick clothes, glanced at Xuan Ye, and then got up and prepared to go out.
After Xuan Ye heard it, he looked up and looked out, and found that it was already dark outside, and he was a little worried, Xu Tiantian went out alone: "It's a little dark outside, or I'll go with you."
"No, what can I do? What's more, Aunt Chen's house is next door, out of the yard, two steps away, don't worry, I will be back soon. Xu Tiantian listened to Xuan Ye's words, and knew that Xuan Ye had been here for so long, and she didn't know that Aunt Chen was the neighbor who lived next door.
Xuan Ye heard Xu Tiantian's words come to this, and it was difficult to say anything more, so he nodded at her.
Xu Tiantian went out, closed the door carefully, and walked to the next door in three or two steps: "Third aunt, are you there?" ”
"Hey, who's that?" As soon as Xu Tiantian's words fell, he heard the people in the room answer.
Xu Tiantian listened to the voice and hurriedly responded: "Third aunt, it's me, I'm Tiantian." ”
"It turned out to be Tiantian, come in quickly, it's so late, what's the matter with coming here?" Soon the door opened from the inside, and Aunt Chen looked at Xu Tiantian who was standing outside with some surprise, and then turned sideways to make way for her.
While taking Xu Tiantian into the house, Aunt Chen shouted into the house with a loud voice: "Boss, hurry up, Tiantian is here." ”
"Tiantian is here, hurry in, it's cold outside." The person in the room was also Aunt Chen's man, and Uncle Chen sat on the kang and beckoned to Xu Tiantian with a smile.
"It's so late, come to disturb Uncle Chen, Aunt Chen, a few days ago I found a sea area, where the seafood is very rich, and there are many types, seeing that winter is coming soon, and the villagers are very difficult, so I thought that the villagers would go to that sea area to catch some seafood together, and it would be better to resell it to earn some silver at that time." As soon as she sat down, Xu Tiantian went straight to the point and made her intentions clear.
Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen were very surprised when they heard what Xu Tiantian said, and then looked at each other, a little puzzled by what Xu Tiantian meant: "This ...... What do you mean......
"Uncle, aunt also knows that I don't usually go around the village, so I don't know the villagers in the village, and the only people who are familiar with each other are uncle and aunt, so it's troublesome for uncle and aunt to inform the villagers about this matter." Xu Tiantian's face turned red when she heard this, and she smiled a little embarrassedly.
Waiting for Xu Tiantian to explain, Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen suddenly realized: "Oh, so that's the case, don't worry, Tiantian's matter is on us." ”
"Since that's the case, then please, it's not too early, so I won't bother my uncle and aunt." After Xu Tiantian saw that they agreed, she prepared to leave.
Seeing that Xu Tiantian was leaving, Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen did not stop them.
Out of the house, a little cold, Xu Tiantian quickly ran back to his yard.
"It's all done." Hearing the sound of pushing the door, Xuan Ye didn't look up.
Xu Tian nodded and rubbed his cold hands: "Well, it's all done, I believe the villagers will come to the door early tomorrow morning." ”
Soon the night passed, and sure enough, Xu Tiantian was woken up by the noise outside early in the morning, and listening to the noise outside, she instantly lost her sleepiness.
Looking at Xu Tiantian's confused look, Xuan Ye knew that she must have been woken up by the noise outside: "Wake up, if you don't wake up, let's sleep again!" ”
"No, let's take the villagers early and come back early!" When Xu Tiantian heard this, she quickly shook her head, and then struggled to stretch.
There are not many seafood in winter, but it is sweeter than other seas. They found that this sea area is still relatively rich.
Soon, Xu Tiantian took those villagers to the sea area, and when they arrived at the sea area, the villagers all acted in groups.
Although the villagers don't know many types of seafood, fortunately, everyone can catch some shrimp and fish, and this trip is not in vain.
After making sure that the villagers knew the way, Xu Tiantian went home early.
"It's getting colder and colder." Xu Tiantian knelt on the kang, looking at the light snow outside, and couldn't help but reach out and pick up a snowflake, which fell on her hand and melted quickly.
After breakfast, Xu Tiantian took Xuanye to the beach while she was still young in the snow.
"It's frozen, and it looks like it's going to be useless today." When she arrived at the beach, Xu Tiantian saw piles of ice ballast on the beach, all of which were hit by the waves.
Seeing that the snow was getting bigger and bigger, Xuan Ye and Xu Tiantian hurriedly ran home with empty baskets.
As soon as I got home, I found that the yard was full of people, and after a closer look, I found that there were also Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen.
