Chapter 171 Sea Snakes and Sea Turtles
"Tsk! Brewing muddy wine? Then why did you go to all this trouble?"
Lao Lu said dissatisfiedly.
"The turbid wine I brew is similar to what most restaurants sell."
Lao Lu is not bragging, he has been in Ping'an Town for many years.
I've tried all the wines sold in the big and small taverns in town, and they're all the same!
If we talk about the best, the wine brewed by Mrs. Wu’s deceased father would be the best.
"Even if you really brew muddy wine, there's a difference between good and bad. Why are you talking so much? Just get down to work."
Xu Yiyi glared at him.
By the time all the wine in the wine cellar was moved out, the children sleeping in the house woke up.
They chattered non-stop, and the yard suddenly became lively.
"Oh my! These kids are different! Don't look at their small size, they are so energetic. I don't feel tired even when I'm working just listening to them talking."
Lao Lu breathed a sigh of relief.
Xu Yiyi smiled and held Wu Yuan in his arms and gave it to Er Er.
Go out and head straight to the pier.
The fish and shrimp in the restaurant were supplied by uncles and aunts in the clan, which helped Xu Yiyi solve a big problem.
People who went out to sea came back to the dock from time to time.
Most of the restaurants in the town have regular fishermen supplying them, but I still come to the dock for a stroll every day.
The purpose is to buy more valuable fish.
There was one person among them who seemed out of place.
It was the fat and brainy Hong Gang, who was now arguing with a fisherman at the top of his voice.
Xu Yiyi was packing up her own boat slowly and attentively while paying attention to the movement over there.
It turned out that after Hong Gang and Zhang Ju Ran had caused trouble for her last time, the uncle on the island who supplied the two companies suddenly quit after learning about it.
He refused to supply goods to those who bullied Xu Yiyi no matter what.
He also spread the word that he would rather let his own fish rot and stink than give it to the restaurant that bullied Xu Yiyi.
After these words were spoken, most of the restaurant owners in the town became much more polite to Xu Yiyi.
Without the daily supply, Hong Gang had no choice but to go to the dock to seek cooperation with other fishermen.
What happened today was because the quality of the fish that the fishermen sent to Hong Gang was uneven, and some of them were even dead.
I'm afraid few restaurants would dare to use such ingredients.
Hong Gang was so angry that he had to go to the dock to look for someone.
"What are you looking at?"
Hong Gang's eyes were red and he was so excited that he suddenly pulled the wound on his butt.
The pain was so severe that I could hardly stand.
Xu Yiyi shifted his gaze and pushed the boat into the water.
He jumped up and stood on the boat.
Hong Gang watched Xu Yiyi row the boat out.
He was thinking bitterly in his heart, thinking about Xu Yiyi who drowned at sea.
And there's one less person to make him angry.
Xu Yiyi had no idea what Hong Gang was thinking. She was lying on the boat looking at the sea.
Just now, a red and black sea snake somehow crawled along the oar and onto the boat.
She was concentrating on rowing the boat and was startled when she heard the noise.
The sea snake spit out its bright red tongue and looked at Xu Yiyi with a somewhat explicit look.
It was as if he wanted to eat her.
Fortunately, the turtle arrived quickly and bit the snake's head directly.
Therefore, the sea snake returned to the water from the boat.
The sea snake's tail wrapped around the turtle's neck, tightening in circles. Xu Yiyi watched with fear.
You know, sea snakes are highly venomous.
If you get bitten, you won't survive the night.
The sea snake kept twisting its body, trying to counterattack the turtle, but was eventually eaten by the turtle.
The turtle that had eaten the sea snake swam lazily around Xu Yiyi's boat.
The man and the turtle arrived at the target area. Xu Yiyi lowered the sail and tied the tools around his waist.
Jump into the water with a splash.
The sea turtle followed behind Xu Yiyi and dived down.
The kelp in this area is very lush, climbing all the way from the seabed to the surface of the water.
Wherever Xu Yiyi looked, he saw green ribbons with all kinds of sea creatures on them.
From time to time, you can see small fish playing hide-and-seek in it.
After reaching the seabed, the turtle skillfully bit the sea urchin over.
This thing is actually quite fishy when eaten raw, but turtles like it.
Eat it every day.
Only after eating is he willing to help Xu Yiyi with work.
When the sun shines down, the underwater world is also clear and bright.
Xu Yi looked closely and saw something swimming in the reef forest.
She reached out and pushed the turtle beside her.
The sea turtle swam straight towards the reef forest. Suddenly, a sea snake jumped out, looked at the sea turtle carefully, and immediately hid away.
Xu Yiyi knocked the reef forest with a stone from a distance, making a dull sound.
The sea turtle swam back and forth, and some shrimps and crabs were scared and ran out.
Xu Yiyi looked at him with curiosity.
"Did I see it wrong?"
Just as I was about to go around it, a big eel slowly emerged from the dark cave.
Before she could get close, the turtle bit it first and pulled the eel out of the cave.
After putting the eels into the net bag, Xu Yiyi led the turtle through the reef forest and came to the sand.
During the day, cuttlefish like to lie on the sand and pretend to be dead. Xu Yiyi held a harpoon and stabbed at the cuttlefish.
If one is hit, the surrounding water will instantly be filled with ink.
The turtle following behind was annoyed by the noise.
After swimming a few laps with it, it returned to the reef and lay down, chasing small fish and shrimps to scare them from time to time.
Xu Yiyi was picking up conchs on the sand and piercing cuttlefish one by one. Looking back, he saw a sea turtle slowly paddling its limbs and shuttling through the colorful reef forest.
Like a child who is in a playful mood.
I don’t know what she saw, but she swam briskly to Xu Yiyi and bumped into her gently.
"Why did you bump into me? Do you want to eat again?"
Xu Yiyi turned around and faced the turtle, still a little confused. Wasn’t it fed just now?
Just as she was wondering, the turtle circled around her.
Xu Yiyi immediately understood what he meant and followed the turtle into the reef.
Not far away, a pair of lionfish came into view.
I saw them snuggling together intimately, their colorful fins gently swaying in the water like gorgeous brocade, intertwining with each other.
One of the lionfish gently swayed its body and rubbed the other one gently with its head, while the one being rubbed slightly turned sideways and responded with a gentle touch. Their tails were entwined together as if they had telepathy, spinning slowly in the sea water.
A very beautiful lionfish that loves to show off its affection.
The arrival of Hai Gui and Xu Yiyi became like a light bulb.
The two lionfish shyly separated and swam slowly over a small reef.
Xu Yiyi was a man without any romantic feelings, so he just threw out the fishing net and put the two lions into it.
"Letting you two fry in the oil pan tonight will make our love worthwhile."
Xu Yiyi nodded seriously.
The turtle stared at all this in a daze. Its slow thinking seemed to be trying to understand the scene in front of it. Its eyes were full of confusion and curiosity, and its originally regular paddling movements unconsciously slowed down.
"What are you looking at? Are you looking for a wife?"
Xu patted the turtle's shell.
The couple even asked her to come and watch when they were being affectionate.
