"What is this?"

Manyuesha got up and walked to Yan Shu's side, looking at the rag-like thing in her hand, very curious.

"Kelp."

Yan Shu threw the things in his hand onto the beach, raised his hand and wiped the water on his face.

"The harvest period of kelp is generally from April to July every year, but the climate of the wild island is relatively special, and no one has ever gone into the water to pick this thing, so this thing grows in large quantities, and there are many more in the sea now."

The crescent nodded.

"That's right, you don't say it today, it's true that we've never seen this thing before, and we don't know what it's called, but are you sure this kelp will help us store rice?"

"Sure, but not yet!"

Yan Shu squatted down and lifted up the kelp, which was more than two meters long.

"If you want to use it to store rice, you have to dry it."

Manyuesha frowned, still a little confused.

Yan Shu explained.

"After the kelp is dried, a layer of hoarfrost called alginate will be produced on the surface, which is cut into small pieces and mixed and placed in the rice, so that it can absorb the water in the rice, sterilize and kill insects, and effectively prevent the rice from becoming moldy and insectatic.

Of course, you don't need kelp, you can use alcohol, but as far as I know, there isn't a lot of wine on the island, so you can't afford to waste it. ”

Yan Shu's words fell, the lips of the moon yarn moved slightly, and Yan Shu spoke first.

"You don't need to know what alginate is, even if I explain it, you won't understand, you just need to do what I said, catch more kelp, dry it and put it in the rice, and put the rice in a dry and ventilated place."

Manyuesha narrowed her eyes, lowered her head and thought for a moment, then turned her head and explained the matter to Lao Yin.

Without saying a word, Lao Yin jumped into the water with a few men.

After a while, someone came ashore with kelp.

Yan Shu stepped forward and glanced at it, nodding in affirmatively,

"That's right, it's kelp, you can catch a little more, but remember, change the location to fish, don't go to one place, otherwise you won't be able to bring it to sea next year, and you will be in trouble in the future."

This is understandable, just like when they occasionally go out to sea to fish, they will release small fish.

"Okay, I'll tell you to go down."

Yan Shu nodded.

"Then it's none of my business, by the way, you promised me ..... rice"

"Don't worry, I'm talking about it, and when we receive enough kelp to verify that you're not lying, I'll naturally give you the rice I promised you."

"Okay, if you believe me, I will believe in you."

Yan Shu didn't dwell on it, anyway, she could buy some rice from the platform first and use it first, with the Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce as a pretense, the Fu family would not suspect her.

She rolled the kelp thickly, and was about to leave with the kelp in her arms.

Moonyarn raised her hand to stop her.

"Wait, you can go, take some kelp with you."

Yan Shu looked inexplicable.

"This is what I fished, is there anything wrong with me taking it away?"

The moon veil gave her a blank look.

"No problem, but can you afford rice? What do you do with kelp without rice, don't waste it anymore, put it down! ”

"No, I refuse."

Yan Shu looked arrogant.

"This kelp itself is something that can be eaten, and I can't waste it even if I don't have rice, so I won't worry about it, Captain."

When the words fell, Yan Shu hugged the kelp and walked away.

Manyuesha stood in place and was stunned, just as Lao Yin fished up fresh kelp, Manyuesha hurriedly walked over, snatched the kelp in Laoyin's hand and stuffed it into her mouth.

Before Lao Yin could react, he saw Manyue Veil frowning.

"Except for a fishy smell, there is no taste, and this thing can be eaten? This ugly guy must be lying to me, huh. ”

Here, when Yan Shu returned to the caretaker's camp with the kelp, Fu Shiqing had already rested for a while, and his face was much better.

His eyes fell on Yan Shu's wet clothes, Fu Shiqing's lips moved, and just as he wanted to speak, he saw Yan Shu turn around and throw him with a watery face.

"Let's go, I'm still waiting for someone to work at home, don't want to be lazy."

“......”

Fu Shiqing's voice paused, and his handsome face sank darkly.

He was kicked in the head by a pig to ask the woman what had happened.

Later.

Leave her to death.

When the two returned to the Fu family's courtyard, only Qu Wanwan was at home with Xiao Zhen'er.

There are many cleaned plantain leaves piled up in the yard, and the sticky rice noodles are ground and placed in the kitchen.

Seeing Yan Shu and Fu Shiqing, Xiao Zhen'er took the lead in running over, holding the small box in her hand to show off.

"Third uncle, look, I'm very skilled now, better than you~"

Fu Shiqing smiled slightly when he heard this.

"It's so smart, it's good, then it should be no problem to memorize two articles tonight."

"Third Uncle—"

"Three!"

"Mother, the third uncle hates it~"

Little Hazel ran away with a bag of tears.

Yan Shu was speechless.

"Hazel is so cute, what do you always bully him for?"

Fu Shiqing glanced sideways at Yan Shu when he heard this, and smiled coldly.

"The egg is cute, what are you doing eating it?"

Yan Shu: "......"

She's never seen such a messy man since she's grown up, tui!

"I'm too lazy to mess with you."

Dropping a sentence, Yan Shu walked straight to the curved corner.

"Sister-in-law, where is the eldest brother and second brother?"

"They've gone to pick palm fruits and coconuts, they've been there for a while, and they're supposed to be back."

The bend was covered with sweat, and the movements of his hands did not stop as he spoke.

Yan Shu said.

"Okay, I know, sister-in-law, you can rest for a while, I'll go change my clothes first and then go cook, and then I will dry slowly in the afternoon when I have something to eat."

Hearing this, he didn't move, obviously wanting to do some more work.

Yan Shu directly pulled her up.

"Okay, rest when it's time to rest, otherwise you will be tired and will delay things even more."

"Alright, then I'll go make a fire."

Seeing that Qu Wan got up, Yan Shu walked to the room.

She took advantage of the change of clothes and bought some millet spicy from the platform.

She also wanted to buy soy sauce, vinegar and chili oil, but the packaging of these things was too eye-catching, and after thinking about it, she still didn't dare to buy it, only a small lemon.

When she returned to the kitchen with her things, she saw Curved and Hazel squatting on the ground studying the kelp she had brought back.

Hazel asked curiously.

"What is this, how is it like a rag?"

"This is kelp, you can eat it, how about we eat this at noon?"

"Is this anything edible?"

Qu Quan exclaimed.

Her family runs a restaurant, but she has never seen this kind of ingredient.

"Absolutely."

Yan Shu smiled, cut off a part, and let Qu Wanwan take the rest outside to dry.

Clean the kelp and cut it into thin strips, and put in the seasoning in turn.

Salt, pepper, lemon juice .... Nope.

No way, it's pitiful with little seasoning.

Yan Shu tasted it with suspicion.......
