The smell of pepper is heavy, the smell is difficult to eliminate, the hemp squid strips are out of the pot, and the smell of pepper is still floating in half of the alley.

Half of the sweet and sour squid strips were left at home, and Dongzhu took the other half to the neighbors who lived in the alley, and Haizhu also took out a bowl of hemp flavor for everyone to taste.

"Try this, Second Master Liu should like it, this wine." Haizhu said that the numb-flavored squid meat strips are chewy and heavy, suitable for people who drink alcohol, and if they eat too much, they will only eat that handful, and they are not afraid of getting hot.

She brought a bowl to the Shen family, and then took another bowl to the tavern to find Boss Chen, who bought the recipe for thirty taels.

Another thirty taels were earned, and Haizhu thought that it was not a toss in vain.

……

The next day, Haizhu took the remaining hemp squid strips and went out to sea, and when the boat was floating on the sea, people had nothing to do, and they could pass the time by chewing something in their mouths.

This time, Haizhu changed the direction of the sea, randomly chose a place to stop the boat, and the old turtle consciously climbed to the bow of the boat and planted it when she collected the sails.

Haizhu tied two net pockets, jumped into the sea with a pointed axe in her hand and followed the old turtle, and in the process of diving, she encountered a dead octopus that was carried by the tide, and she chose a big one to catch.

A batch of octopus squid died in the sea and fattened a lot of fish, shrimp and crabs, and when they arrived at the bottom of the sea, Haizhu found that crabs and shrimp were eating octopus, and the hard pincers were dragging the tentacles of the octopus, pulling a long one like a person sucking noodles and swallowing powder. The octopuses and squids buried in the sand have fallen into thick layers of sediment, swaying under the waves, and the sediment falls in a stream, and is finally swept away by the tide.

Crabs and snails are hidden under the sand bottom, Haizhu uses a pointed axe to dig up the fine sand, picks up the conch with a beautiful pattern and throws it into the net pocket, and the crab has to wrap it around with water weeds.

Swimming to the edge of the reef, when she pryed the abalone, she touched a soft thing, she was so frightened that she quickly withdrew her hand, and the other party was also so frightened that she retracted her tentacles.

"It's an octopus!" Haizhu saw it clearly, she saw that it didn't run, not even inkjet, and approached in wonder, wondering if this might be a male octopus that was committing suicide.

She thought about it, took off her shirt and put it on her clothes, and tossed it so much that it didn't even run!

She took the suicidal octopus back to the boat, set aside a bucket to raise it, dug up the sand at the bottom of the sea, moved a few stones, and threw shrimp meat into it to feed it.

A familiar cry sounded from outside the boat, and Haizhu walked out, and five dolphins surrounded her boat.

"Let's go, I'll play with you." Haizhu took the pointed axe and jumped into the sea, and she swam to the bottom of the sea with five dolphins of different sizes.

Colorful corals shine on the bottom of the sea, sea pearls lead dolphins to swim in the corals, and old turtles lie on the reef and watch from afar, not close.

A school of fish swam over, the dolphins ran after the fish, and the pearl swam under a reef, and as soon as she got closer, the black moray eel in the burrow poked out half of its body, its mouth open and looked at her menacingly.

Haizhu swung a pointed axe and chopped over, the moray eel nimbly dodged, and began to attack her with great speed, Haizhu slashed as she retreated, and the tip of the axe slashed through the eel's head, instantly cutting off a piece of meat.

She had a retreat, and in the sea, the moray eel was much faster than hers, and it was not worth it to be bitten by it. Just as he was about to escape, a dolphin rushed over, and this time it turned around and ran away.

The dolphin bit the tail of the black eel, and the vicious eel instantly broke its tail, and it turned around to bite it, but the sea bead swung its axe and chopped it down, and its fangy head slowly fell to the bottom of the sea.

Haizhu planned to give the eel to the dolphin to eat, but it was not uncommon, so he hit her with his snout and swam away slowly.

She picked up the headless moray eel and put it in the net pocket, planning to go ashore to change the sea area, the dolphin did not need her to worry, she carried the net to find the old turtle, and turned around to see the little dolphin lying on the largest dolphin.

She leaned over and looked, good fellow, such a big dolphin is still feeding.

She carefully examined five dolphins, all of whom were females, the oldest and the youngest were mother-daughter relationships, and the other three were unclear.

Chapter 79: I didn't have the idea of having a baby

Haizhu didn't leave, she watched the baby dolphin drink milk with great interest, and the dolphin had to swim when she drank milk, and they couldn't stop, and the little dolphin followed the mother dolphin tightly like a tail.

When the old turtle saw that Haizhu was gone, it swam with him and turned back, and swam in a circle to the water.

Haizhu took the dolphin as a fast boat to sweep the bottom of the sea for a week, and when he came out of the water, he could no longer see the boat. She swam out of the sea with her head out of nowhere, and the five dolphins were idly following her about, and they were about ten feet away with a swing of their tails, and when she was slow to swim, they went over and picked her up to chase the waves on the surface.

Haizhu only needs to judge the direction, and when she deviates from the original direction, she slips off the back of the dolphin and swims by herself, and when the dolphin picks her up, she continues to move forward in the direction she is looking for.

After repeating it a few times, the dolphin figured out what she meant, and Haizhu only had to point in the direction for them.

When I found the boat, the sun had already risen overhead, and the old turtle was sinking in the water and swimming around the boat, and it didn't have to look for food, but the dead squid pushed by the tide ate it.

Haizhu dragged the wooden ladder and stepped on the plank, untied the net pocket and took off the wet clothes first, his hands and feet soaked white in the seawater, and his chest and back were cold to the touch.

The side of the boat was hit, Haizhu leaned over to look over, the old turtle was lifted by the little dolphin and floated on all fours on the sea, she slapped the side of the boat vigorously, "Huh, what are you doing? Isn't it bullying elders? ”

She cast her fishing nets to catch the old turtle and got on the boat, and waved at the dolphin who was playing hard, "I'm going back, you go to the bottom of the sea to find food."

The sails were raised, the stern of the boat crossed the sea and stirred up layers of waves, and the dolphins who like to chase the waves rolled and jumped after the boat.

The sea breeze and the scorching sun took away the water marks on her body, and her body began to warm and warm up little by little, and there were no boats and no people on the vast sea, Haizhu was lying naked on the board of the boat to bask in the sun, with the sound of rolling waves in her ears, and the boat swayed slightly, she closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, and waited for the dolphin that followed the stern to leave, and then she sat up.

When the boat docked, Du Xiaowu came over to help smash the anchor and said, "I came back very early today, and the harvest is not small?" ”

"Not really, there's something going on in the afternoon." Haizhu looked around the dock, the wooden cart was still there, she first pushed the old turtle off the boat, and then carried two net bags to the wooden cart. When she left, she thought of her new pet, and when she went down to the bottom warehouse, she saw that the shrimp had been eaten, so she went to pry five oysters and threw them in, patted her hand and pulled the cart home.

"I'm back, cooking? I smell the scent. She shouted before she even entered the door.

In the kitchen, Dongzhu smiled when she heard the voice, she came out with a spoon and a grin, and said, "I'm cooking." ”

"What to do? It's delicious when you smell it. Haizhu already smelled the smell, she let go of the rafters and went into the kitchen with her hands behind her back, the chicken was stewed in the crockpot, the pot on the stove had not yet been lifted, and white smoke was slowly rising from the cracks on the side of the pot.

"I bought a hen stew and left two bowls to stew dried squid." Dongzhu was a little embarrassed, she was following her sister's example yesterday.

"Yes, you do it first, I'll taste it when it's done." Haizhu held her sister's shoulder and encouraged her, "Even if it is bad, it's okay, if you don't succeed once, you can do it again, learn this dish and then learn the next dish, and when the restaurant opens, we sisters will make money together." ”

Dongzhu nodded heavily, that's what she thought.

There was hot water in the back pot, Haizhu scooped water to wash her hair and take a bath, and then scrubbed her wet clothes with hot water after taking a bath.

Grandma Qi likes to sort the fish brought back by the sea pearls, such as hairy crabs that look like Ma Ma Lailai, orchid crabs with blue bodies, prawns that are longer than the palm of your hand, thumb shrimp with transparent shells, orange-yellow conch, spotted sea shells, squid that have been eaten by crabs and shrimp, dead sea fish, starfish with beautiful colors, black eels with severed heads and tails...... Sorting through these things, she also had an undersea hunt in her head.

Chaoping sat on the ground and pulled the brightly colored conch in the basin, and Grandma Qi scooped two scoops of water into it, and threw a brush over for him to wash the snail shell.

"What are you going to do with this moray eel?" She asked.

Haizhu walked to the water tank to take a look, if you open a restaurant to sell vegetables at night, you can steam it in a pot, she knocked on the door of her head, and said: "Moray eel is dried, this one is not big, and it is not enough for a few people to eat, I will catch a few more in the sea after tomorrow, and make a special meal of stewed eel." ”

There was a sound of oil in the kitchen, Haizhu glanced at it, didn't go in, brought a chair to sit with the sun on his back, and asked, "Where is my third uncle?" ”

"We're chopping wood, don't let us wait for him, just leave him a plate of food." Grandma Qi said.

The family stewed chicken and boiled soup for two days in a row, and the firewood was consumed, and Qi Laosan was not allowed to pay for it, so he went out with a machete and a rope as long as he was free.

"It's time to eat, set the table." Dongzhu shouted.

"Okay." Haizhu did the work that Dongzhu did on weekdays, wiped the table with a rag, and went into the house to serve food and rice soup. Today's lunch meal was made by Dongzhu and Fengping, and the others didn't interfere, and they were full of praise when they served the food.

"The rice is just right to steam." Grandma Qi first praised the fire, chewed the chicken and continued to praise the cooking: "The saltiness is just right, stewed with red dates, and there is a sweet taste." ”

Haizhu took a dried sweet and sour squid and said: "The sugar is fried well, there is no bitterness, but the juice is a little thinner, stew a chicken tomorrow, boil it again with chicken broth, and do it again." ”

Dongzhu nodded, "Okay, sister, you drink chicken soup, I bought this chicken with Feng Ping to make up for you." ”

Haizhu immediately scooped a bowl of chicken soup, and this can of chicken soup was full of heart.

Grandma Qi "tsk" twice, took the spoon and scooped two spoons for her second son, and said, "Let's have some good food on a free meal, and we will also make up for our bodies." ”

Second Uncle Qi smiled.

Dongzhu stuck out her tongue and smiled, "Don't be jealous, I'll buy you a chicken stew tomorrow to replenish your body." ”

The yard was happy, and at the end of the meal, Qi Laosan came in carrying two bundles of wet branches, he washed his hands and went into the house to serve the rice, and the dishes on the rice table in the pot were all wrapped by him.

After a break after dinner, Haizhu took Dongzhu and Fengping to the bookstore to buy ink and brushes, and only bought a knife for paper, and there was a lot of sand on the seaside, which was a natural practice plate.

When he arrived at Shen's house, Shen's father had not yet gone to the upper duty, so he asked the little maid to lead Dongzhu and Fengping to the private school in the side courtyard, and asked Haizhu to go to the study to inquire about the situation of the bandits.

"Admiral Han intends to attack the bandits in May, do you know?" Father Shen asked.

Haizhu was silent for a moment and said, "I heard Han Ji mention it, but the specific situation is not clear. ”

"That's it, you didn't mention it to you." Father Shen stopped talking in time and asked about the process of her and Han Ji going to attack the bandits.

Haizhu said a few words briefly and asked when Shen Sui would come back.

"I've come back, the ship passed by the dock this morning, stopped for a while and went directly to Fucheng."

When the official ship passed by the wharf, Han Ji wanted to call Haizhu to go to his house in Fucheng as a guest, but when he saw that there was no boat for her in the bay, he knew that she was going to sea again, so he asked the guard about the dolphins, and knew that they were still staying at the wharf and left.

Haizhu accompanied Shen's mother for half an hour, poured a belly of tea, and saw that there was no problem with Dongzhu and Fengping, so she went out to wander around the street.

There were only men in the tavern, the restaurant was empty, and there were not many people on the street, only needlework sellers were still setting up stalls. Haizhu walked from the street to the end of the street, turned to the dock to wander, and the porter raised his eyes when he heard the footsteps, and then closed his eyes and dozed off.

"Didn't go to sea today? It's rare to see you idle. Mao Xiaoer said hello.

"I went in the morning and came back at noon." Haizhu walked over and chatted.

The wind on the seashore was so strong that it blew people's hair around, but the seabirds were unaffected, landing on the reef and tilting their heads to look at the people talking on the shore.

Mao Xiaoer flicked a stone, the seabird was not startled, and a beautiful birdsong spit out from the red sharp beak, and he asked Haizhu if the birds he met on the sea were also so bold.

"The birds of the sea will use the boat as a resting place, and they can't chase them, otherwise they will on the boat." Haizhu looked into the distance and said, "Second Brother Mao, you are busy, I'll walk along the coast." ”

There are patrolling guards on the coast, in teams of three or five, and they will take a second look at Haizhu when they meet her, and then tell her not to go to a remote place.

Haizhu walked around for a while, and when she was about to walk back, her stomach hurt, she wondered if she was drinking the wind and making her stomach, and after taking two more steps, she noticed that something was wrong, and she walked back quickly.

No one at home was there, so she closed the door and went into the house to untie her pants and see that it was indeed menstruation.

Her stomach hurt so much that she was covered in cold sweat, and Haizhu didn't care about what to prepare, so she took out two handfuls of cotton wool from the quilt, wrapped them in a cloth and tied them to her body, lifted the quilt and lay on the bed to sleep and get through.

She was also soaked in water all the year round in her last life, menstrual irregularities are very common, seven times out of ten times will have a stomachache, every time at this time she covers the warm water bag and sleeps under the quilt, covering a sweat.

……

"Mother, you didn't lock the door when you left?" Second Uncle Qi saw that the door knocker was not locked, so he pushed open the door and said, "Haizhu, are you back?" ”

No one in the house answered, Grandma Qi suspected that she was a thief, she didn't have much money in the house, she didn't have to worry, she went to Haizhu to sleep in the house, and the door was closed from the inside.

Haizhu was woken up, her stomach still hurt, she couldn't feel the heat when she slept with the quilt on a hot day, she didn't dare to move sideways, and shouted outside: "Don't bang on the door, I'm sleeping, milk you boil a basin of hot water for me, I want to soak my feet, and then cook me a bowl of red date ginger syrup." ”

Grandma Qi knew what was going on as soon as she heard it, she quickly went to the kitchen to light the fire, and lived with Haizhu for almost five months, and she had not been seen to come to Kwai Shui, the old lady was worried when she thought about it, and asked her She said that she had gone to see the doctor, and the doctor said that there was no problem.

"The water is hot, you open the door, and I'll bring it in for you."

Haizhu lifted the quilt and got out of bed, opened the door and sat on the bed again, she rolled up her trouser legs and soaked her feet in hot water, and said, "Milk, you sew me a few menstrual belts, I didn't prepare." ”

"Okay." Grandma Qi went out again and brought red dates and ginger syrup, and said, "When I was young, menstruation also hurt, so don't get cold water at this time, I'll go out to buy a chicken later, and stew chicken for you at night." ”

Haizhu nodded, her feet were warm, and her body was a little more comfortable, and when the water was warm, she took out her winter socks and put them on, and then lay back on the bed and covered the quilt to sleep.

This sleep until Dongzhu and Fengping came back from school, Dongzhu entered the house to see that her face was bloodless, and immediately took the silver to ask for a doctor, and she also had a grudge against her milk in her heart, and went out and said: "You just see that she is in pain and don't ask a doctor?" ”

"I don't hurt anymore." Haizhu shouted.

Dongzhu didn't listen to her, and trotted all the way to the hospital.

When the doctor came, he saw that Haizhu only came to Kwai Shui, and he said with a little amusement: "Many girls of this age will have stomach aches when they come to Kwai Shui, don't touch the cold water during this period, and pay attention not to get cold, the girl's body must be well maintained, otherwise it will affect the heirs in the future." ”
