Madam, She Has a Tender Heart - #455 - Chapter 456 Delicious
Two fishing boats from the village docked. A dozen men on board jumped off the shallow water and dragged the fishing boats to the shore.
Villagers on the shore also pulled on the boat ropes to help with the dragging.
It was the first time for Dabao, Xiaobao and others to see a fishing boat docking at the port. They were very curious and gathered around the beach.
When a dozen men saw a group of strangers coming to the shore, they all froze and their men stopped moving.
“Dad, they are just here for fun, not to collect fishing taxes.” Siwa shouted to his father.
The village chief also nodded to his son, and the fishing boat started moving again.
“So many catches today!”
“Wow!”
Su Qingyu saw from a distance that the two fishing boats were deep in water. It seemed that they had a good harvest today, and she was looking forward to it.
The two fishing boats were fixed, and the catches on the boats were moved down one by one. The villagers in Leshan Village ran to help.
“Wow, Mom, there are so many things!”
“what is this?”
Su Qingyu and Lu Bocheng also gathered around with several children to watch.
There were fish, shrimps, crabs, squid, cuttlefish, snails, and shells in the basket… There were many varieties, and everyone was stunned.
“My lord, come and take a look, is there anything you need?” Village Chief Zou greeted Su Qingyu, Lu Bocheng and others.
The villagers in Leshan Village looked at Su Qingyu and others expectantly.
If the nobles are interested, then they don’t have to go to the city at night.
Su Qingyu picked a lot from various baskets, and wanted some of various varieties. Su Qingyu kept most of the catch, except for some that were not in good condition and were too small.
“My lord, do you want to buy so much? If you can’t finish it today, it won’t be fresh tomorrow.”
Village Chief Zou was very happy when he saw that the nobles picked up most of the boat’s catch. Although he was happy to get the money, he couldn’t help it, so he gave a kind reminder.
I’m worried that the nobles are pitying them. There are twenty or thirty of them, and they can’t eat so much. It won’t be fresh tomorrow.
Su Qingyao smiled at him and said, “It’s okay. If you can’t finish it, we’ll bake it in the evening, dry it, and dry it into dried food to take back.”
Village Chief Zou was very happy: “Okay. Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir.”
The dozen or so men who went fishing today were also very happy. The noble man bought so much, and they could share more money.
The next step is to discuss the prices of these things.
It was the first time for Su Qingyu and others to buy such fresh seafood, and the price was not very clear.
Finally, the village chief said that it would be enough to give him eight liang.
Su Qingyu looked at more than a dozen baskets of seafood. Each basket weighed dozens of kilograms. There were about ten kinds of fish, and they were also big in size. The shrimps, crabs, and squids were all very big. How much did these only cost eight taels?
He was stunned for a moment.
“I’ll give you ten taels, and you can help us with it. We’ll pick out some that we’ll eat later, and you can help us scale and remove the debris from the rest, wash and cut them, and then help us apply salt and dry them. In your village Do you have a dustpan? Bring us some, and some straw ropes.
“Yes, yes, all of these are available. Thank you, noble sir. We will take care of it for you now.”
Village Chief Zou was very happy when he received the ten taels of silver. He asked the women standing beside him to stay and help, and asked a few men to go back and get the drying tools and some sea salt.
The villagers in Leshan Village all had smiles on their faces.
It’s great. The nobleman gave me ten taels, so I didn’t have to go to the city to pick them up. I got money right at my doorstep. It was much better than before. Moreover, there is still some left on the ship, and each family can share a share, so that the whole family can have something fresh.
It would be great if I could get ten taels every day.
Nale Mountain Village is no longer suffering from poverty.
The villagers helped dispose of it at the beach. The discarded debris can also be thrown back into the sea without worrying about attracting wild animals and flies.
Just carry it ashore the second time and wash it again with fresh water.
Su Qingnao also asked several women to help pry open the other half of the shell with iron pieces for the clams she originally bought, and then discarded them. Only half of the shell and flesh were left.
They had just been dug out and needed to be raised to remove the sand. But if Su Qingyu wanted to eat fresh ones, she could only pry open the shells, clean them and remove the sand, so she could eat fresh ones.
Dabao, Xiaobao, Xiaoqi Yiteng and others all gathered around and asked, what is this and what is that, very curious. My mother said these are so delicious, my mouth is already watering.
On the shore, the tent was set up, the iron pot and the grill were also set up.
Su Qingyu is going to take matters into her own hands and cook a seafood feast for everyone.
For large clams, remove the shell on one side and leave the meat in the shell on the other side. Put it on the grill, add the sauce, add minced garlic, and brush it with oil again. The juice will bubble up, and the fragrance will spread for thousands of miles.
It attracted all the children who were watching the villagers handling the catch on the beach.
“Mom, it smells so good.” Xiao Qi was held by her elder brother, swallowing hard.
Qing Xing picked up a roasted clam, put it on the plate and handed it to her. The little girl didn’t care about burning it. She pinched the edge of the shell, blew on it, poured juice into her mouth, sucked the juice, and picked out the meat to eat.
It smells so good that my feet jump.
“It’s delicious, Xiaoqi wants more.”
It was also the first time for the children in Leshan Village to see a distinguished person come to play at the beach and even sleep on the beach. They refused to go home and watched from a distance.
Seeing that they usually threw the clams in the water and boiled them, but they set fire to roast the worthless clams that were full of sand in their mouths. Several children kept sniffing and swallowed hard.
“Put so much oil and minced garlic, it must be delicious. I will make it the same way next time.”
“How dare you use so much oil? I’m afraid your mother is going to break your legs.”
“It smells delicious. I really want to eat it.” He licked it again and again.
Su Qingyu saw a circle of children gathered around. Their eyes were staring and they felt a little sour. It was not a valuable thing, so she called a few children over to eat.
“Thank you, sir.”
“Thank you, sir. It’s so delicious.”
“We don’t bring much garlic. Do you have any in your village? If so, we can buy some from you.”
“Yes, yes, I will help you go back to the village to collect it!” Siwa volunteered after eating two clams, feeling satisfied.
“Okay, then help me go back to the village to collect some. When you come, I will treat you to something else.”
“Okay!” Siwa just spoke, feeling a little regretful. Even if he couldn’t eat it, he could just inhale the aroma. Unexpectedly, the noble man said that he would be invited to eat something else.
I was so happy that I immediately ran to the village.
“Hey, I haven’t given you any money yet!”
“Wait until I get back and get it!”
Without looking back, the figure disappeared in a flash.
The nobles are not those who collect fishing taxes. I just bought most of their boatloads of fish without blinking an eye. The nobles will not rely on their money. The fourth baby ran very fast.
After Lu Bocheng and the others finished eating the clams, fish, squid, shrimps and crabs were put on the grill to grill.
The freshly caught seafood is already very fresh and has a salty taste. Just brush it with a layer of oil, and the sweat will come out, and the fragrance will make everyone gather around.
Several guards and entourage helped to bake while eating. Xiaobao, Dabao, Xiaoqi and other children also didn’t move a step, staring straight at it, eating around the grill.
too delicious.
“Sister, let’s stay a few more days.”
“Auntie, this is the first time Yi Teng has eaten these seafood.”
“Is it tasty?”
“too delicious.”
“Tengteng said it’s delicious, so let’s stay a few more days.”
“Okay, Mom, I’ll eat it tomorrow.” Xiao Qi jumped up and down happily.
