After entering the courtyard and not seeing Xu Ling, Qi Yingxue asked around and only found out then that the former was going to town for a meeting.
Hence, she smiled. “That’s good. Anyway, all this seafood have to be kept away. When she comes back, we’ll cook them for dinner. The timing will be just right too!”
When Yang Guang heard that, he quickly asked, “Sis, are you guys not leaving today?”
“Not just today. Xiaowan and I are planning to stay in the village for a few more days!” Qi Yingxue laughed.
“Oh, that’s great!”
When Yang Guang heard that, he was so happy that he was almost jumping for joy!
It was also because of this that his entire body was suddenly filled with strength, and he even walked with the speed of the wind!
After a simple lunch, everyone sat down under the shade of the trees and prepared to clean up the seafood they had bought.
Yang Guang fetched two buckets of water while Wu Xiaolian found two large metal basins.
While brushing the shells of the scallops and abalones, Yang Guang could not help but sneak glances at Mu Xiaowan from time to time. In the end, he was soon discovered by Wu Xiaolian and Qi Yingxue. The two of them exchanged glances and could not help but laugh.
However, only the two of them knew the feelings in their hearts.
Mu Xiaowan did not say anything. She sat on the stool and cleaned the scallop shells. When Yang Guang brought another bucket of well water, she suddenly thought of something. “Oh right, using your well water to soak seafood, will it taste different?”
“Surely not?”
Yang Guang was stunned. Then he thought about it. “Aren’t these things grown in the sea? They don’t drink well water.”
“That’s true!”
Mu Xiaowan nodded. Then, she lowered her head and continued to work. She didn’t speak again.
Qi Yingxue had brought too much seafood. Just the crustaceans alone were enough to fill a large basin. The remaining prawns and crabs could only be placed in a bucket.
Yaya had just learned how to walk, but she was already filled with curiosity. She staggered over to catch the crabs. Fortunately, Qi Yingxue saw it and quickly picked her up, so the child did not get caught by the crab pincers.
However, Guang was not so lucky. This fellow had grown a little. Although it ran like a meatball, it was very agile.
Taking advantage of the fact that people were not paying attention, it also ran to the side of the barrel to look. In the end, its nose got pinched. Guang was in so much pain that it cried out. Yang Guang picked it up along with the crab, and it took a lot of effort to break them apart.
After that, Guang became obedient. It ran to its own nest and hid with a bitter expression. No matter how much Mu Xiaowan teased it, it refused to come out.
After cleaning the seafood and soaking it in the water to get rid of the sand, Xu Ling came back on an electric bike.
Along the way, the sun had made her face red. From afar, she could see Qi Yingxue’s car at the entrance of her house. When she entered the courtyard and saw that she and Mu Xiaowan were both there, Xu Ling immediately cheered. She was extremely happy!
Looking at the house becoming lively again, Yang Guang could not help but sigh in his heart. If he could live like this in the future, how wonderful would that be!
Unfortunately, good things could not be taken up by one person. Such a happy time could only be short-lived.
However, on second thought, Yang Guang became happy again. He thought to himself, “Who cares about the future? As long as I’m happy now, it’s fine!”
Hence, he quickly carried some firewood and prepared for tonight’s seafood feast!
Wu Xiaolian had never seen so many varieties of seafood before and did not know how to cook it. Therefore, she simply followed Qi Yingxue’s instructions and boiled it in one pot and steamed it in the other pot. She used the simplest method to handle it.
After the pot was opened, the fresh and sweet aroma immediately filled the entire courtyard. The indignant Guang also wagged its tail and came out.
At this time, the sun was about to set, and it was the most comfortable time of the day. The visibility was high enough, and the temperature had dropped a lot. With a gentle breeze, everyone sat in the courtyard and began to taste the seafood feast.
Among the crowd, only Wu Xiaolian had not eaten these things much. After tasting a scallop, she revealed a surprised expression. “No wonder everyone said that this thing is good. It’s actually so delicious?”
Everyone laughed. Of course, those were kind smiles.
Yang Guang smiled and looked at her. “Sister-in-law, if you like it, I’ll buy seafood for you every day from now on!”
“It’s better not to. It’s too expensive!” Wu Xiaolian laughed.
At this moment, Qi Yingxue and Mu Xiaowan also ate a scallop each. Then, they were both stunned!
Seeing them like this, Yang Guang asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”
“This taste is different from the previous ones. Yang Guang, quickly try one!” Qi Yingxue said.
Yang Guang was puzzled. He picked a scallop and put it into his mouth. Immediately, he felt a fresh and sweet taste. That scallop was very juicy. It simply melted when it entered his mouth!
Then, his eyes widened. Ignoring the presence of the four ladies, he directly cursed, “F*ck, could it be that what I ate last time was a fake scallop?”
“Of course not!”
Qi Yingxue glared at him and continued, “If you ask me, it must be because of the well water. It was used in washing and soaking the seafood!”
“Then this well water of mine is not well water. It has become divine water!”
Yang Guang clicked his tongue. He felt that this was a little too magical.
When everyone tried the other seafood, the results were all exceptionally delicious. The taste was much better than what they had eaten before!
“Your well water is really amazing. Even the quality of seafood can be improved. If people keep drinking it, won’t it be able to prolong their lives?” Mu Xiaowan said as she chewed on the prawns.
The speaker didn’t mean it, but the listener was interested. Xu Ling was immediately energized when she heard it!
She turned to look at Yang Guang and immediately asked, “How deep is your well?”
“Uh, my grandfather dug the well. It’s about seven or eight meters deep, right?” Yang Guang asked.
“If you can use it to water the greenhouse, it means that the well has plenty of water, right?” Xu Ling asked.
“That’s right. It won’t dry even after pumping for a few hours. The amount of water is indeed not small. Perhaps the underground water level in our village is on this line of water!” Yang Guang said.
Xu Ling nodded and continued, “I suddenly have an idea. Should we dig a bigger well?”
“Do you want to produce mineral water?” Qi Yingxue immediately understood and asked.
Xu Ling nodded and looked at her and Mu Xiaowan. “Wan’er’s words just now reminded me that it’s impossible for everyone to stay in the village and drink such good water. The best way is to package it so that everyone can drink it!”
“Sister Ling, you really have a business mind. But producing mineral water isn’t that simple, right? Moreover, if you pump underground water all day long, I don’t know if that stone will be powerful enough for that!” Yang Guang said.
“That is indeed a problem!”
Xu Ling nodded and then smiled, “I also had a sudden idea. Forget it, let’s not talk about it. Let’s eat!”
Yang Guang nodded and then said, “I don’t care about others. Anyway, if you guys want to drink this well water every day, it’s easy. I’ll just send it to the county regularly!”
He paused at this point and added, “Of course, it’s best if everyone lives with me!”
The girls looked at each other strangely.. They didn’t say anything!
