　　Chapter 208

　　The two of them quickly returned to the house, which was very dark. There were no oil lamps or candles, only the light of the stove fire, and the delicious fragrance of seafood wafted in the air.

　　Two aunts are making fish rice.

　　There is no rice in the fish rice, only fish, and not one kind of fish, but several kinds of fish, cooked together in small bamboo baskets, and then divided into different bowls. Two slices of ginger are added to the fish soup to remove the fishy smell, and a little sea salt is sprinkled for seasoning. The finished fish soup is extremely delicious.

　　But the fishermen can't feel the delicacy of the fish rice and the fragrance of the fish soup. They started eating this not long after they were born, and their taste buds have become numb.

　　Because fish from fishermen is the cheapest thing, while rice is very expensive.

　　The fish we catch every day are sold at the fishing port while they are fresh, and the rest is our own. We pick out the big ones, pickle them and dry them, and use the small ones to make fish rice without adding any seasoning except salt. Just eat fresh food.

　　Fish is a very good food, but if you eat it one day, it will become the most unpalatable food in the world if you eat it every day. For example, Jiang Beini doesn't like fish the most. She would rather eat pickle dumplings than touch fish. She is really afraid of eating it.

　　Two uncles and two older cousins ​​are processing the seafood caught today.

　　These are all leftover, and the good and big ones have been sold directly at the fishing port. There is a fish market there. After paying the protection fee to the fish boss, each boat can occupy a position. The nearby residents ask boat after boat if there is any seafood they want.

　　Lao Jiang's family only has one boat, so the two brothers don't divide their families or the money they earn.

　　Seafood is fresh on one day and smelly on the next, so it must be disposed of as soon as possible. The remaining shrimps are pureed and mixed with salt to make shrimp paste. The crabs are washed and cut into pieces and marinated in a jar. The shellfish meat is removed and dried in the sun. Use sea fish to dry or make fish rice.

　　The two cousins ​​were talking about what was new in the fish market today while they were dealing with it. In fact, there is nothing particularly new. Generally speaking, someone gets a wife from another family, a baby is born from a certain family, and someone dies from a certain family.

　　The little cousin was impatient to hear this and took Qingchuan to the back room. He took a burning pine branch from the kitchen, pressed it against the wall to make a torch, and then took out the pearl clams.

　　"I broke one last time and couldn't find a single bead. Xiaoguang, break one and let me see. You must have better luck than me." The little cousin said in a very definite tone while giving him a small hammer, " Just smash it open to save energy."

　　Qingchuan didn't know how his little cousin could see that he was lucky, but because he had never bought a natural pearl oyster, now he had the secret anticipation and nervousness of winning a prize, and he really couldn't bear to hand over this job to his little cousin, "Then I smashed it. Don't rely on me if you don't have pearls."

　　Qingchuan hit it just as he said it would. The first hit was too nervous and didn't even make a crack. The second hit was too hard and the pearl oyster was smashed into two pieces, one big and one small.

　　"Break it open, break it open and take a look." The little cousin looked expectant and looked even more excited than him.

　　However, there was no bulge in the pearl shell inside. The little cousin touched it again and again in disbelief. He sighed, "It seems that Brother Qiming should touch the pearl. You are not lucky."
