The Age of Rebirth: Struggle of the Eldest Daughter

Chapter 14 The Razor King
Su Xusheng's aunt, Wang Qionghua, married into Sujia Village. Su Qinggui and Su Jinshun were cousins ​​in the same ancestral hall, so Su Manjin called Wang Qionghua her aunt.

There are 2 families between the two houses.

When Su Manjin passed by, Wang Qionghua was drying sweet potato slices in the yard.

Su Xusheng lowered his head and arranged the sliced ​​sweet potatoes one by one, so that it would be easier to dry.

He often helps grandma and mother with work at home.

In the past year, my mother worked as a bearer at the dock with my father, and rarely went home.

The work in the field is done by grandma.But grandma is over 60 years old, so he often follows him and does what he can.

Sow peanut seeds in the ground in spring.

In summer, pluck peanuts from the ground, pick peanuts home, pick peanuts, dry peanuts, and burn peanut stalks.

In winter, I go to the field to dig sweet potatoes, and go home to peel sweet potatoes, cut sweet potato slices, dry sweet potatoes, and sweet potato powder.

Su Xusheng basically did all the farm work throughout the year.

"Good afternoon, Auntie, I'm here to play with Su Xusheng."

Su Manjin greeted Su Xusheng's aunt, and waved to Su Xusheng with a smile.

When the boy looked up and saw her, there seemed to be stars twinkling in his eyes.

"Su Xusheng, look what good things I brought you! My grandpa caught crabs, but they are fat. Try it quickly."

Su Manjin handed two to the boy, and peeled one herself.

The two sat side by side on the porch, eating with gusto.

There are not many things in this world that can comfort people.The warmth of the afternoon sun is just right.The sweet smile of the girl next to him is also a kind.

Many years later, Su Xusheng was alone, far away from his hometown.In countless difficult and lonely days.He couldn't help thinking about that day over and over again.

"Su, Su Xiaoman, I'll call you that from now on!" the boy said softly.

The girl raised her bright face, listened attentively, and then responded with a smile: "Then Su Xiaosheng, shall we all go to the beach together on weekends?"

"it is good."

----

03:30 in the afternoon.

The four members of the Su family's sea-chasing team, together with Su Xusheng, a non-staff member, took all kinds of tools and walked towards the seaside full of expectations.

The tide has just started to recede.Half of the reef, which is more than [-] meters away from the seawall, has been exposed.

Su Jinshun, his wife, and Su Yumei immediately started working, catching crabs, picking conch, and digging clams. They were very busy.

Su Xusheng didn't go in the direction of the reef.He looked around, and finally marked out an area by the shallow river channel formed naturally on the beach, and picked up a shovel to dig vigorously.

He dug a big hole, dropped the shovel, squatted down and dug a few times with his bare hands.After groping for a while as if grabbing something, I pulled it hard and pulled out a long strip of about [-] centimeters.

"Su Xiaoman, look!"

Su Manjin was holding the tongs, fighting against a big blue crab under the reef.

Hearing Su Xusheng's voice, she turned her head: "Su Xiaosheng, come and help me quickly. This blue crab is about to run away."

Su Xusheng took three steps and made two steps, and leaned in front of Su Manjin, and stretched out his hand to hold Scylla's back.

Su Manjin was about to tell him to be careful.

He has already turned his wrist, pressed the belly button of the blue crab with his thumb, and picked up the blue crab lightly.

The blue crab waved its pliers-like claws, but couldn't pinch his fingers.

Su Manjin: Oh, the technique is quite skillful.

In his last life, Su Xusheng was a master at frying crabs, but he never thought that he was also good at catching crabs.

Su Manjin exclaimed: "Su Xiaosheng, you know how to catch crabs now! That's amazing!"

Looking at the girl's shining eyes, the corners of Su Xusheng's lips curled up.

He put the blue crab into Su Manjin's bucket, stretched out his left hand in front of Su Manjin, and spread it out.

A large razor clam of nearly twenty centimeters.

"The Razor King!!!"

the girl yelled softly.

"Su Xiaosheng, where did this come from? You know, this is very valuable!" The girl's bright eyes were colored with excitement.

Su Xusheng smiled, and pointed in the direction of digging the razor clams just now.

Su Manjin saw the pile of sand dug up and the shovel thrown aside.

Pull Su Xusheng and run over there.

Looking at the girl's small white hand holding his own, the black and white skins of the two were particularly conspicuous.Su Xusheng's ears turned red.

"No wonder you insisted on bringing a shovel and salt just now, because you wanted to dig razor clams!" The girl's voice brought Su Xusheng back to his thoughts.

"Let's look for it again. There should be razor clams in this area." Su Xusheng lowered his head to look for it.

Su Manjin:
About twenty centimeters, razor clams?
Well, you can dig it, you are amazing.What you say is what it is.

In the last life, except for her grandparents who planted sea oysters for two years, Su Manjin's family never did sea farming or fishing from the time she went to primary school until she grew up.

Her most vivid impression of the sea is: walking by the sea, the scenery is beautiful.

And, many of her romantic and beautiful memories with Su Xusheng are by the seaside.

As for how to find seafood at the beach, she was confused.Even growing up by the sea, she was still a landlubber at the age of 35.

—— Unlike Su Xusheng who had a father who threw him into the sea and taught him how to swim.

——It’s not like some girls have a boyfriend who throws her into the swimming pool to learn how to hold her breath.

After the two fell in love, Su Xusheng personally taught it for two summers, but she couldn't learn it either.

——She just likes to lie on the lifebuoy and dangle in the water, and the euphemistic name is: relax.

The only action Su Manjin ever took to catch the sea was to dig clams with her mother-in-law, and learned how to dig meretrix theoretically.

Why theoretical study?
Because the mother-in-law dug one right at the time, but she didn't dig it.

Ahem, it may also be the beach more than [-] years later, too many people dig Meretrix meretrix, and they are all dug up by others :)

"Su Xiaoman, why are you in a daze!" Su Xusheng called her back to her senses.

"Su Xiaosheng, what's the matter, what's the matter, can you still find the Razor King?" Su Manjin asked quickly.

Su Xusheng pointed to the two "eyes" at his feet, "Look, these two eyes are the moving passages dug out by the razor clams."

"This eye is bubbling, maybe the razor clam is breathing, let's give it some salt," he poured some salt into the small hole.

"Puchi", a slender razor clam exposed half of its body, and was gently pulled out by Su Xusheng.Another razor king arrived.

Su Manjin:
So, easy?
Su Xusheng looked again and poured salt.This time there is no king of razor clam.A long and powerful jet of water came out from the hole, splashing Su Xusheng all over.

He wiped his face, and immediately took a shovel and dug down from the position he had just marked.A big hole was dug, and then he squatted down, inserted his hands into the sand, and went under the small hole where the water was just now, and groped for a while before pulling it out.Another long razor clam was pulled out.

Su Manjin: Accepted.

After more than an hour.

Su Xusheng looked for the "eyes" of the razor clams with a shovel, and Man Jin followed him with a bucket and a bottle of salt.After Su Xusheng found "Eye", Su Manjin was in charge of feeding the salt, and Su Xusheng was in charge of the follow-up series of actions.

As more and more razor clams were found, Su Xusheng's image in Su Manjin's heart became bigger and bigger :)

Su Manjin held back the inner OS:

Want, send, big, rich, lah!
