Chapter 273 Chestnuts and Sea Urchins

On the horizon in the distance, a sun is about to set. The sunset in the western sky is waving a gorgeous veil, and the surrounding clouds and sea are coated with a golden color.

Zhang Zhong and his family were sitting by the platform in front of the villa, and Peng Peng was sitting among them, with his two little feet hanging in the air. As they swayed, the gravel between their feet spilled onto the ground, splattering a little golden color.

The sunset at the seaside is different from that at the lakeside. The water surface in front of them is more unobstructed. In front of Zhang Zhong and the others, it is like a screen that has been wiped clean, playing the gorgeous scenery.

The evening wind blows with a slight chill, and the setting of the sun signifies the coming of night. The nights in Luzhou are cold, because the cool breeze blowing from the sea can quickly take away the heat accumulated during the day.

Zhang Zhong closed the blanket on Pengpeng again. The girl seemed to have only now remembered that she came to see the sea. At the last moment of the sun setting, she stared closely at the western sky.

"dad."

When the sun was about to completely set and the figures on the beach became increasingly shallow, Pengpeng suddenly spoke.

"Um?"

"Where will the sun hide after it sets?"

The sun is not hidden, we are just blocked from seeing it by the planet below.

Zhang Zhong did not explain this to Pengpeng, but said with a smile, "Maybe he went home, and he also came out to play for a day."

"That's it." Pengpeng thought thoughtfully, then said with a smile, "Then when the sun doesn't come out, is it because its father doesn't let it out to play? Does it want to go to kindergarten just like me?"

"That may be the case, but I don't know it, so I don't know."

"But why does it come out from the east in the morning?"

"Maybe it sneaked to the east." At this time, the night had fallen, and the street lights behind them became brighter and brighter. Zhang Zhong stood up and pulled Pengpeng and said, "The sun has gone home, and we will go back too."

Go home."

"Uh-huh."

His parents also stood up. Zhang Xingjun hammered his sore thighs and said with a smile, "The sunset at the seaside is indeed different from the sunset at the lakeshore. It is unblocked."

Hu Huifang said, "As soon as the sun goes down, the sky cools down so quickly. It was still a bit hot at first, but now it's a bit freezing. Let's go in quickly, so as not to catch a cold soon."

"Well, let's go back and take a shower first, and then we'll go have dinner."

They haven't eaten yet, and Zhang Zhong plans to take them out to eat seafood in the evening. Luzhou is close to the sea, and most of the food is seafood.

Originally, Zhang Zhong planned to take them to the Outlet Seafood Plaza because the environment there was pretty good and much quieter.

But my parents said they wanted to go to the first market.

The reason why I wanted to go to the First Market was because a colleague of Hu Huifang’s family had been to Luzhou before. When he came back, he told her how the First Market had a history, had a comprehensive range of products, was cost-effective, and was very famous.

The First Market is indeed quite old, and the largest number of tourists go to the First Market every year, because it is the most down-to-earth market.

However, the disadvantage is that there are too many people. It is a holiday, and when there are more people in the market at night, it will look chaotic.

After the family arrived at the First Market, looking at the bustling customers, they felt a little confused as to what to do.

The so-called first market was originally the first farmer's market, which mainly sells seafood. Tourists can choose to buy seafood here and then find a seafood processing shop to process it on their own.

As soon as Zhang Zhong and others entered the market, someone came over with a business card and asked them to eat seafood.

This is actually one of the reasons why Zhang Zhong doesn't want to go to the first market. There are too many people soliciting customers, and it's very annoying.

After sending away several people who came to solicit customers, Zhang Zhong and the others began to select seafood in the market.

After just picking for a while, two girls walked towards me. They saw Zhang Zhong and said with a smile, "Hey, handsome guy, we meet again."

Zhang Zhong looked up and saw that they were the two girls who had chatted with him during the day. When they were at the beach, their makeup was not light, but now that they were wearing clothes, their makeup was even thicker. If Zhang Zhong's eyesight and memory hadn't been so poor,

Yes, you may not even be able to recognize them.

When Hu Huifang saw the two of them, she was like Monkey King seeing the goblin, and immediately made a defensive posture, "Son, are these two your friends?"

Zhang Zhong shook his head, "No, I just met him once."

"Oh." It turned out that she didn't recognize him, so Hu Huifang relaxed her vigilance.

Zhang Zhong didn't speak to them, and walked forward with the Le Crab he just bought in one hand and Peng Peng in the other. He also wanted to buy a grouper.

Being ignored again, the two girls, although there was anger in their eyes, did not continue to entangle.

After they were far away, Hu Huifang suddenly said from the side, "Son, don't make mistakes."

"Yes, I understand." Zhang Zhong nodded without further explanation.

After a while, Hu Huifang said again, "Don't be sorry for that child Yuhan."



"Dad, I want to eat this claw."

Pengpeng was wearing a small scarf and pointed at the crab legs on the table.

When she was selling seafood just now, this girl showed a lack of interest. After the seafood was processed into delicacies, she became active.

In just a short while, she had eaten a crab until only two big claws were left.

When it comes to food, Pengpeng is still a fan of appearance. At first, she saw sea urchins with thorns all over their bodies and looked inaccessible, so she was not interested in them at all. However, after sea urchins were processed into sea urchin eggs, she became interested in sea urchins.

That changed.

It's just that she always thought sea urchins were chestnuts.

She had seen chestnuts growing on trees, and at first glance they looked similar to sea urchins.

"Dad, this chestnut tastes like eggs."

Hu Huifang touched Pengpeng's head and said, "Fool, this is a sea urchin."

“What is a sea urchin?”

"What is chestnut?"

The former sentence was asked by Pengpeng, and the latter sentence was asked by a little girl at the table next to me.

The little girl may look younger than Pengpeng, and the boy and girl at the same table should be her parents.

The little girl had been listening to Pengpeng's conversation just now. After hearing chestnut, she was a little curious and asked her parents what chestnut was.

Zhang Zhong and the others glanced at the table. The little girl's father smiled at Zhang Zhong, and then said to his daughter, "Chestnuts are chestnuts. Didn't you eat them during the Chinese New Year?"

The little girl frowned: "But aren't those chestnuts smooth? They're nothing like this."

Judging by their accent, they should be from the north.

"No, chestnuts have thorns when they grow on trees. When they are ripe, the thorns fall off."

Pengpeng heard the father's explanation and quickly said, "No, uncle, the chestnut thorns grow on the shell. When the chestnut is ripe, the shell will have a small opening, and you have to use something to pry it open."

When the chestnut is green, there are no small holes and you have to cut it with a knife."
