Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 1429: Chapter 1228 Seafood_1 Chapter 1429: Chapter 1228 Seafood_1 Bei Lingsu was leaving, and naturally, Qiao Xiaomai, Yang Ye, and Tong Sanlang went to see her off. A group of people arrived at the seaside.

The Bei family’s boat was pretty big. According to Yang Ye, it was the best boat in Daqi; it seemed the Bei family was indeed quite capable.

“I will probably be back in about a month, see you then!” said Bei Lingsu.

“We’ll be waiting for you here,” Qiao Xiaomai said, hugging her with a bit of reluctance.

During this time, she had enjoyed Bei Lingsu’s company immensely, and the two were developing a close friendship.

“I will be back,” Bei Lingsu patted her back, “When I return, I’ll bring you some specialties from our island.”

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai smiled, “Alright.”

She had made many snacks and was chilling them on ice, but the weather was quite hot, and she wondered if the snacks could be transported to the island without spoilage.

Bei Lingsu was only taking medicinal herbs and the snacks she had made with her this time.

Well, that was rather prideful.

She used to compare herself to Bei Lingsu and always felt like an ugly duckling, but as time passed, this feeling gradually disappeared.

Everyone has their specialty; she might not have the duality of medicine and poison mastery, graceful like a fairy as Bei Lingsu, but the delicacies she created could make Bei Lingsu eat without any concern for her image.

Though she benefited from the waters of Spiritual Spring, facing someone like Bei Lingsu, who seemed to have cheats, she also needed to have her own cheats.

It was not until Bei Lingsu’s boat disappeared from view that the three, along with their company, turned to head back. Yang Ye wanted to go directly back to Prefecture City, but Qiao Xiaomai wanted to stay in this little village by the sea for a few days.

The people of this era did not eat kelp and nori, and she had long been contemplating these two sea products, especially kelp, which not only adds umami flavor to dishes but also helps prevent goiter, with numerous benefits.

“Why don’t we get some seafood? It’s rare for us to come to the seaside,” she suggested.

Upon hearing this, Yang Ye immediately changed his mind, “Okay.”

He had already arranged for the tens of thousands of Tianlong Gang members afflicted with brain rot, and there was nothing urgent waiting for him in Prefecture City. It was not often he got to try fresh seafood with Qiao Xiaomai.

No need to leave.

Once Qiao Xiaomai and Yang Ye made up their minds, everyone else naturally had no objections.

Tong Sanlang immediately said, “I’ll go fishing.”

“Forget it, you better stay and tend to the fire,” Qiao Xiaomai stopped him.

Tong Sanlang’s injury had not fully healed, and there was lingering pain where she had kicked him. Since it was not possible to undergo surgery or X-rays at this time, they could only rely on medicines and the waters of Spiritual Spring for his recovery.

Moreover, having grown up on dry land, Tong Sanlang could swim but he was not adept at it. Fishing should be left to the local fishermen.

The fishermen took their boat out to sea and returned with a bounty of fish and various shellfish after half a day.

Qiao Xiaomai picked out two brown croakers, each over a foot long, and had someone scale and gut them. Then, she sliced them thinly, lightly marinated the pieces, dipped them in egg batter, and deep-fried them.

The thin fillets, fried until they were golden brown and crispy, made Yang Ye’s mouth water, and he didn’t bother with chopsticks, simply eating them with his hands.

As he savored the fish fillets, a look of satisfaction appeared on his handsome face. Qiao Xiaomai casually frying fish fillets could make them taste so good; her culinary skills were improving.

After swallowing the fish in his mouth, he generously offered high praise.

Qiao Xiaomai smiled, “The freshness of the fish is key.”

One couldn’t get such fresh brown croakers in Capital City.

“Hey, now that you mention it, I really want to build a residence here to stay for a while each year,” said Yang Ye.

The Capital City was too far from the ocean, and all the delicious seafood there came in the form of dried goods.

His eyes swept over the freshly caught abalone, sea cucumber, and clams, and he quickened his chewing, intending to indulge in a feast today!
