At first, he wanted to look around again to see if he could pick up a few more snails, but there were only two of them, and they were not easy to cook in the pot, wasting firewood, so he had no choice but to trot over when he heard his son's cry.

   "Here, here, Dad ~ it ran sideways ~"

  Ye Yaodong was tall and long-legged, and he caught up with him after two steps. He used the tongs to grab the ghost-head crab that was still trying to escape.

   This ghost-head crab should be the ugliest among the crabs. The big eyes grow to the buttocks. I hate it!

   "Ah, got it..."

   "Dad, this crab is so ugly!"

   "Well, this is a ghost crab. It's ugly, but it's a little ugly. It's good to eat."

   "I don't want it, it's too ugly, I want to eat blue crab!"

  Ye Yaodong said angrily: "You know the goods, and you know how to eat blue crabs. I'll let you eat the fart. Do you want to eat it?"

   "Porphyrin, fart for yourself!"

  Ye Chengyang also pouted his buttocks in a similar manner, "Porphyrin porphyrin~I'll eat~"

   Immediately after the release, they also followed suit.

  Ye Yaodong laughed and scolded behind him: "Run slower, don't run into the water, the tide is still ebbing ahead, don't get too close."

   "Got it~"

  The two of them ran and stopped until both hands were full before calling them dad again.

  Their hands are only that big, and one person can only pick up two or three snails and clams.

   "There are two more fish in there, we can't hold them in our hands."

"Um."

  He walked in the direction of the two children's fingers, picked up the two dead mud fish and threw them into the bucket, and there was a cockle the size of a pigeon egg beside him, which he also took into his pocket by the way.

  Catch the sea? It’s just that it’s not good because things are too scattered and there are too many varieties, and they are picked one by two, not a litter for you.

  Even if they were supposed to be in groups, they would disperse when they wash up on the shore, and the waves don’t care if you are a family or not.

   Within two steps, he saw a black ball in front of him again. He walked up a few steps and found another sea urchin. The two children could each have a bowl of steamed eggs with sea urchin.

  As for why not stew a big bowl directly?

   That is of course because of the uneven distribution and there will be a fight!

  For the harmony of the family, and for the sake of having a peaceful meal, it is necessary to steam a bowl for each person, otherwise you will have unclear "cases" after eating a meal.

   "Dad, there is an ugly crab here, he is stealing sand clams!"

   "It's a ghost crab!" Ye Chengyang said in a childish voice.

  Ye Yaodong is always on call.

  The two children were squatting there, watching with relish a ghost head crab was pecking at the flesh of a sand clam that was about the same size as it.

   "Wow, Dad, its two big feet are so powerful, they can open the mouth of sand clams~"

  I saw that this ghost head crab is really "ghost": after using its two pincers to forcefully break off the two shells of the live cockle, one pincer supports it, and the other pinches the cockle meat.

   "That's why I keep telling you that you can't catch crabs, if you pinch its big feet, your fingers will be broken!"

  Ye Chenghu's index finger that was sticking out immediately retracted in fear, "I didn't catch it!"

   "Ah... eat eat..."

  Ye Chengyang cried out excitedly when he saw the clam meat being dug out.

   "Well, let it be a dead ghost!" Ye Yaodong waited for it to have a full meal, and then caught it into the bucket.

   This one may be more greedy. It is a whole circle larger than the one caught in the bucket before. It looks four or five taels, and it is very hard.

   "Show me, how many have you picked up? Ah... There are two sea urchins, one for each person..."

   "If you look for more, the night one hasn't been found yet!"

   "Yes, Dad!"

  The two children happily ran on the beach again.

  Ye Yaodong thought that maybe he could ask his father to weave two small baskets for them to carry when he was free later, so that it would be convenient for them to go shopping next time.

   One big and two small picked up along the way, but they picked up a lot of cat's eye snails and clams, and also picked up several cockles.

  Ye Yaodong didn't bother to look at his feet, he looked up from time to time to see where the two children were going, and then turned his head to look at the shore.

   At this moment, Ye Chengyang was suddenly startled and frightened, and burst into tears, "Dad~Dad~"

  Ye Chenghu also said anxiously: "Father, the octopus climbed onto Yang Yang's face..."

  He thought something was wrong, so he ran over impatiently.

  I saw a little white badger crawling on Ye Chengyang's face, its flurry of tentacles spread out arrogantly, covering his whole face, Ye Chengyang was so frightened that his hands and feet trembled there, tears and snot flowed down his nose.

  He grabbed Xiaobaizhang casually and pinched it in his hand, "Scared me! I thought something happened, it's just Xiaobaizhang, it's fine if you catch it, what are you afraid of?"

  Ye Chengyang hugged Ye Yaodong's thigh and cried loudly.

  Ye Chenghu said innocently: "I caught it, but I can't catch it, its feet are bound too tightly."

   "Don't be afraid, what are you afraid of? It's such a small one. It's cooked for you at noon. You won't be afraid if you eat it in your stomach."

  Ye Chengyang stopped immediately, but still sniffed and loosened his shoulders from time to time.

  Ye Yaodong changed the subject, "Huh~ there is a translucent sea anemone on the water beach."

  The attention of the two was immediately diverted, Ye Chengyang didn't even **** his nose, and ran over behind his father.

   "Ah, sea anemone, so beautiful..."

  Children are like this, emotions come and go quickly.

  The transparent sea anemone buried under the sand only has its mouth plate exposed on the beach, and dozens of tentacles sway and swing in the shallow sea water, looking like flowers.

  Ye Chenghu curiously reached out to grab it, but Ye Yaodong directly shot it off, "It's poisonous, don't touch it, I'll dig it for you, it's not easy to dig."

   "How to dig?"

   "Look, I'll teach you, dig from the side, cut in obliquely at the side of the sand and start washing the sand... It's still growing underneath, it's very deep, don't dig it, but uproot it."

  Ye Yaodong started to wash the sand while talking, but accidentally pulled out a sand clam?

  After throwing it into the bucket, he continued to dig, dug a big hole, and really went down to the bottom to wash.

  The roots at the bottom of the sea anemone are still very long, in a cylindrical shape, but when they are all pulled out, the roots at the bottom of the mouth are a ball.

  He grabbed its root, pulled it up, shook off the water stains, and handed it to the two of them, "Save it for cooking hot and sour soup at night, no part for you!"

   "Cut~ We want to eat steamed eggs with sea urchin!"

   "But there are only two in the bucket, not enough for you to eat two meals, go find it."

   "Slightly slightly slightly ~"

  Ye Yaodong saw a few more nearby and not far away, and dug out all the gourds in the same way, one is not enough for a bowl~

  Eat the mountains by the mountains, eat the sea by the sea, pick up the goods at your doorstep, and you don’t have to worry about eating and drinking by the sea.

  Even when he was young, he was tired of exploring the sea, and he didn’t like to come here. Otherwise, he would pick up half a bucket of miscellaneous seafood and return it as a dish when he came out every day at low tide.

  They walked down the tide until they reached the shallow water area. He stopped the two children and only let them wander on the beach.

   At this time, there were many children on the beach. Adults don't like to come to the beach to pick up these worthless and messy things. It's a waste of time, and the amount is not much, so it's not worth their trip, but children like it.

  Sometimes the adults in the family will also ask the children to come out to pick up something and go back when the tide is low, so that the children will not run around like crazy.

  Ye Yaodong led them to the reef area on the side to see if there were any stranded fish to pick up. Today, there were no fish, only two mud fish.

   "Daddy, blue crab, blue crab~"

   This is Ye Chenghu's favorite crab, of course he recognizes it, Ye Yaodong took the tongs and pinched it out from under the rock.

   "Let your mother stew Codonopsis ginseng for you at night, it will give you strength!"

"Yeah!"

Ye Yaodong led them to squat down on the beach next to him, tried digging a few times, and dug out two sand clams, and immediately said with satisfaction: "Just dig sand clams here, don't run around, your mother told you to dig more One o'clock, I'll go around."

  The reef area is full of rocks, so he won't take them with him, and he only intends to go around.

  There are no big shellfish on the rocks, and he doesn't care about small ones, so he basically doesn't look at the stone walls, just to see if there are any stranded ones.

  There are quite a lot of stone crabs, blue crabs, and ghost crabs. They can be seen everywhere in the crevices, under the stones, and piles of rubble...just after low tide.

   He didn’t bother to catch the ones that were too small, so he picked a bigger one. Visually, there were more than two or three taels caught in the bucket. After a while, the upper layer of the bucket was covered with various crabs.

  But I really didn’t see any fish today, I only picked up 3 Shi Jiugongs.

  The tide level did not recede very low today, and people who were farther away could not go out. After Ye Yaodong walked around and found nothing, he went back to look for his two sons.

  The two were very serious, squatting there very hard, and didn't run around.

   "How much have you dug?" He asked as he walked, and when he got closer, he saw that the two were digging a hole, and they weren't working hard at all?

   "Dig two!" Ye Chengyang took out the two sand clams he had buried in the sand as if offering a treasure.

   "That's right, keep working hard, don't play anymore, the task your mother gave you must be completed, otherwise there will be no sea urchin steamed eggs at noon."

"knew."

   The two moved their little buttocks to the side, and really worked hard, but they persisted for a while, and then let themselves go.

  Ye Yaodong didn't expect them to dig too much, and originally brought them out for fun.

   "Don't get the sand on your head, or you will be beaten when you go back."

   Don’t worry about getting clothes on, the sea sand will be clean after a pat.

   "Ah! I dug a big one!"

  Ye Chenghu just wanted to dig sand for fun, but he didn't expect to find a sand clam bigger than his fist.

  He was instantly excited, "Ahahaha, I'm so big, I'm so powerful..."

   "Good luck, dig a few more!"

"Uh-huh!"

  In an instant, he felt as if he had been slapped with chicken blood, and he dug hard with great effort.

  Basically one shovel at a time, it really made him dig a lot at once, and the more he dug, the more excited he became.

"again…"

"besides…"

   "Another big..."
