Chapter 013: Simple and easy, another meal.
"Keep your voice down!"
"Don't wake Mom and Dad..."
After the two returned home.
Song Yaxin was afraid of waking her parents-in-law.
He then gestured to Fang Hao beside him, offering a reminder.
Because they took all the beachcombing tools, Chen Fenglan didn't go beachcombing tonight and stayed home to sleep and rest.
"Um!"
"They might already be getting up to make breakfast. Go wash your hands and feet first; seawater is salty and soaking in it for too long isn't good. I'll make some midnight snacks..."
Fang Hao nodded and said directly.
People in rural areas can sleep well and get up early; sometimes they get up at four or five o'clock to light the fire and cook breakfast.
When Fang Hao usually comes back from fooling around outside.
I just happened to catch my parents getting up.
"It's too late."
"How about we do it tomorrow..."
It was clear that Fang Hao was planning to have a late-night snack.
Song Yaxin frowned and said softly.
After all, it'll be almost dawn by the time we finish this!
"It's okay, it'll be quick!"
"I'm a bit hungry after fishing all night, and I can't sleep without eating. If you're sleepy, go to bed first..."
Fang Hao waved his hand and said.
How could someone in their early twenties be sleepy?
After saying that, he picked up the bucket and walked to the kitchen next door, preparing to tidy up and make some late-night snacks to fill his stomach.
"..."
Watching Fang Hao's retreating figure as he entered the kitchen.
Song Yaxin was also somewhat dazed and lost in thought.
It took him a while to shake his head and clear his mind.
Then he went to the water pump next to him, pumped water to wash his feet and face.
I feel a bit salty and greasy all over from just going beachcombing!
Thankfully, the weather is relatively cool this time of year.
Otherwise, you might end up sweating profusely.
It's important to know that beachcombing is quite hard work; you need to put in physical effort to reap any rewards.
...
A few minutes later.
"Do you need any help?"
When Song Yaxin finished washing her feet and entered the kitchen, she found that Fang Hao had already started the fire and cooked the pot, so she wondered if she could help with something.
"Need not!"
"I'm just making seafood congee."
Fang Hao shook his head directly.
Cooking porridge in a large pot over a wood fire is quite quick.
The seafood caught while beachcombing is very fresh now, and it's absolutely delicious to use it to make porridge.
There are flower crabs, mud crabs, and snails!
There were also some miscellaneous seafood items.
This pot of food is sure to be fresh, sweet, and delicious!
"oh oh!"
"You...can cook?"
Song Yaxin stood right next to her.
He hesitated for a moment before asking the question.
In her subconscious, hooligans and scoundrels should all be lazy and good-for-nothings.
To her surprise, Fang Hao seemed quite skilled at it, which was indeed somewhat unexpected.
During this day.
Fang Hao had already surprised her too many times, and she really couldn't believe that the notorious thug had such a side to him.
It's nothing like the rumors suggest!
"No problem at all!"
"You'll have to try my cooking later..."
Fang Hao said with a smile.
After his wife and parents passed away in his previous life.
He also lived alone for a period of time and learned to cook from short video food bloggers.
soon.
An hour or two will pass in the blink of an eye.
Fang Hao simply made a pot of seafood porridge.
I also made a stir-fried octopus with sand ginger and scallions.
"Beautiful little grains!"
"A simple meal again..."
The two did not go to the lobby to eat.
Instead, they simply set up a small table in the kitchen and started eating.
So as not to disturb my parents!
Leave some in the pot for them to eat in the morning; there's not much time left until dawn.
"So sweet."
Song Yaxin took a small sip.
I found this seafood porridge to be very fresh and sweet.
I started to like it almost immediately.
She rarely had the chance to eat such fresh seafood before; if she didn't live near the sea, she could only buy it in town.
For many rural families...
It would be more practical to buy pork than seafood at this price.
"Then eat more!"
"You should know that this seafood congee is quite high-quality; I put in five blue crabs, along with some other seafood~"
Fang Hao said with a smile.
Eating fresh, natural seafood again after many years still makes me very happy and satisfied.
What's more, he caught it himself!
That would taste even better!
"Um."
Song Yaxin nodded as well.
I felt more relaxed than ever before.
To be honest, she kind of liked this feeling.
I just hope this isn't a dream!
"Let's sell the rest of the crabs."
"Eating like this is too extravagant..."
After thinking for a moment, Song Yaxin finally spoke.
Fang Hao caught a total of more than a dozen large blue crabs.
I just put four or five of those things into this pot of porridge. If I were to exchange them for money, I could buy a lot of pork.
Who would be willing to eat like this?
Anyway, she herself felt a little pain in her wallet.
"Alright!"
"I'll listen to you."
Fang Hao readily nodded.
With the help of super-strong perception, catching crabs is not a difficult task.
Song Yaxin is currently doing this out of thrift and diligence.
I have no reason to blame her!
"Uh-huh."
"Then we'll sell it tomorrow."
Seeing that Fang Hao listened to him so obediently.
Song Yaxin couldn't help but feel happy, even a little bit of bliss.
No woman wants her man to be an immature partner.
"Hahaha!~"
"I'll go to the market in town with you tomorrow. It's market day, so we can sell everything we need..."
Fang Hao said with a smile.
This thing only fetches a good price if you sell it in town.
If it were bought directly by seafood traders, the price would be at least half off.
"Should we take it to town and sell it?"
Song Yaxin was stunned.
Fangzhuang is more than ten kilometers away from the town, and people only go out to buy and sell things on market days.
"Um!"
"I'll give you a ride on my bicycle."
"We can just set up a stall and sell these blue crabs individually; I think we can sell them, and the price will be much higher..."
Fang Hao continued to explain.
Shahai Town is the center of the surrounding area, and people from all the villages come here for market days.
There are a lot of people on market days!
Therefore, the products naturally sell well.
Maybe we'll be able to sell the remaining nine large blue crabs soon.
"OK."
Seeing that Fang Hao had already said that.
Song Yaxin couldn't refuse any longer.
The remaining crabs weigh at least several kilograms and can probably be sold for tens of yuan, which is equivalent to more than half a month's salary for an average person.
If we could catch that many crabs every day, that would be a considerable income.
Regarding Song Yaxin's thoughts.
Fang Hao was naturally unaware of this.
A late-night snack.
The two ate for almost half an hour.
Then I went back to my room to sleep.
We spent the whole night going beachcombing.
Fang Hao and Song Yaxin fell asleep shortly after lying in bed. Thanks to their experience of going beachcombing tonight, the latter was no longer as resistant and afraid as she had been the night before.
Actually, feelings are a thing.
With a little nurturing, it can gradually develop.
In just one day, Fang Hao had already brought Song Yaxin many surprises.
Even their impressions have gradually changed.
Song Yaxin originally thought she had fallen into a fire pit, but Fang Hao turned out to be quite different from what she had expected, even much better.
That's just human nature!
Expectations that are not high are easily satisfied.
