Chapter 6 What is that?
Su Yunman carried the small basket in one hand and Su Yunxue's hand in the other, obediently walking behind.

Su Yunxue found a dead branch, pulled it in the grass, and said to Su Yunman, "Sea ducks come ashore to lay eggs at night. It's already afternoon, so they probably have been picked up long ago. It doesn't matter if you don't see them today. I'll see you tomorrow." Get up early, let's pick some wild fruits and eat later..."

"Bang!" The branch touched something, and a big gray mouse ran away screaming and screaming.

Su Yunxue was frightened, and hit it with a dead branch a few more times, but when she saw no other movement, she was ready to take a step forward.

Su Yunman saw a bluish-white thing in the grass at a glance, so she grabbed her sister's hand, "Sister, what do you think it is?"

Su Yunxue pulled apart the grass, picked up the sea duck egg, and said thoughtfully, "It seems that the mouse came to steal the sea duck egg, and I scared it away!"

Su Yunman also leaned forward and saw that the grass had indeed been crushed. It seemed that the sea duck egg was indeed rolled over by a mouse.

Su Yunxue picked up the sea duck egg and led Su Yunman to walk forward in the direction, "Go over and have a look, there must be more than one."

After walking not far, I saw a place with dense grass. When I opened it, I saw a sea duck nest.

Su Yunxue pulled a few handfuls of long grass, stuffed them into the basket, and began to happily pick up duck eggs.

"One, two..."

Su Yunxue checked out the last sea duck egg, hesitated for a moment, and put back three more.

She stroked Su Yunman's face, "Xiaoman is so lucky, this half basket is enough for us to eat for several days, let's go, let's go pick wild fruits."

"Sister, why did you put back three more?"

"The sea ducks are very lazy. They don't want to move their nests. If you leave a few for it, it will continue to lay eggs. We will pick them up in a few days."

It was already evening when Su Yunxue took Su Yunman back by boat.

The setting sun was slanting to the west, and where the sea and the sky met, there were many fishing boats returning late. While rowing, Su Yunxue looked around, wanting to see if her father who had gone out to sea had returned.

Su Yunman ate the wild fruit picked by her sister with relish, and sat in the cabin admiring the sea duck eggs.

A total of two nests of duck eggs were picked up. Although three or two were left in each nest, they still harvested a full basket.

Su Yunxue happily praised Su Yunman as a great lucky star, and mentioned that Lingquan Temple is really spiritual, and said that when she went back, she asked her mother to take their sisters to fulfill their vows.

Although there are many sea ducks on the seashore, their nests are very hidden. They are all in the deep grass of the mangroves. It is very difficult to find, and many people can't find them all day long.

As soon as the sisters entered the woods, they found two nests of duck eggs. This is not ordinary luck.

The power of the koi also surprised Su Yunman, counting the sea duck eggs over and over again.

The sampan hadn't come close to their boat when they heard someone calling them.

Su Yunxue quickly paddled a few times, leaning against the side of her family's boat, before she had time to fasten the sampan, she picked up Su Yunman and boarded the boat.

Su Genliang looked at Su Yunman, grinned softly and said, "Xiaoman, Xiaoxue, have you rowed out?"

He was tanned from fishing all day, and his big white teeth were exposed in this smile.

Su Yunman only felt that it was funny and kind, and her intimacy increased a lot. She glanced at Su Yunxue who was holding her in her arms, and then happily called out to her father.

Su Genliang, the grinning boss, hugged Su Yunman, held her up high and spun around, happy for a long time.

"Okay, okay, daddy's good girl, if I catch a big fish today, I know something good will happen."

Su Yunman was stunned.

Xu Xiumei snatched Su Yunman away with some reproach, "Be careful, our Xiaoman is just right!"
