Follow the army to the island, the rebellious male protagonist was led by me to counterattack

Chapter 81 Li Da's Visit
"Who?"

*
The coast after the storm is sunny and the breeze is blowing.

Hai Sandao, the Xia family at that time.

"Dabai, are you hatching eggs?"

Under the pavilion in the yard, Shi Xia was cutting the salmon skillfully, and tilted his head to look at the big white lying in the square nest incubating eggs.

The aunt who came to help was very surprised.

"Has Big White found a gander? Goslings can't be hatched without a gander."

“I don’t think so…”

Shi Xia looked away with a complicated feeling as if his own goose had grown up.

"Just hatch it first. If there are no goslings after a while, you'll know not to do it."

"That's right, Dabai is very smart."

Aunt helped to process the salmon while Shi Xia continued to cut it.

Shi Xia, who was cutting salmon, heard footsteps and looked up. Grandpa Shi came back carrying a bucket of water.

"grandfather--"

Shi Xia shouted, and Grandpa Shi tilted his head.

"Wear a hat and get some sun!"

Shi Xia gestured on his head, and Grandpa Shi said unwillingly: "It's hot."

"It's not good even if it's hot. You'll get sunburned."

Shi Xia put the straw hat on Grandpa Shi's head without saying a word and looked at him seriously.

“Don’t pick them!”

Grandpa Shi hummed in dissatisfaction and went in to fetch some water.

Auntie smiled secretly and said to Shi Xia, "Uncle Shi is like an old child."

"He's so stubborn. It was raining heavily yesterday, and he insisted on going out to shelter the vegetable garden from the rain. If I hadn't stopped him, he would have caught a cold by now."

The aunt took the piece of salmon that Shi Xia had cut, sorted it and put it aside, saying, "It's okay as long as you watch over it."

"When you and Cheng'an get married, Uncle Shi will follow you, and he can live wherever he wants."

marry?

Shi Xia felt a little guilty.

She chuckled twice and changed the subject.

"Aunt, please take some of this fish back. We can't eat it all."

"Okay, I'll grill it a little and add a little salt. It'll be delicious. By the way, can you bring some food to Cheng'an?"

"Yes! He will come out when he rests. If he doesn't rest, he will be left at the gate. Someone will give it to him after he is checked."

Auntie was delighted to hear this. She looked at the salmon and said, "I'll make some more and send some to Cheng'an. This stuff is very greasy and he's tired from training, so he needs some nourishment."

"Make more. There are many comrades here. He can't eat it all by himself."

"You're right, I'll do more."

The two chatted as the salmon were all processed. The aunt took the basin back and Shi Xia was ready to have lunch.

Thin slab of slate, seared salmon.

Shi Xia also found some "grass", crushed it and sprinkled it on the salmon pieces, then added a little bit of salt, making it fat and sticky.

Of course, she also reserved some for raw consumption and marinated it before eating.

Shi Xia and Grandpa Shi were enjoying a salmon dinner and had no staple food for the time being.

The main reason is that there is too much fish meat, and if I don’t eat it, it will become smelly.

I brought back a lot of seafood from the beach this morning, and I couldn’t eat it all.

Shi Xia thought, it would be nice if there was a refrigerator.

Her ability can only control it to be infinitely close to zero, but it is not zero after all. It can barely keep it fresh for one or two days, but it won't work for a long time.

"eat."

Grandpa Shi put the grilled fish on Shi Xia's plate, and Shi Xia smiled with his eyes narrowed.

"Thank you."

Grandpa Shi grinned.

"Is Shi Xia at home?"

Captain Cheng started shouting from several meters away to remind Shi Xia.

Shi Xia didn't move, she knew why Captain Cheng came.

"Shi Xia—I'm eating."

Captain Cheng arrived at the door, and ten meters behind him followed Li Da, who was covered in bird shit. Yes, covered in bird shit.

Li Da knew that the person who could go into the sea to salvage was a fisherwoman, and she was the fisherwoman he had offended.

After some ideological struggle, he decided to come.

But as soon as he went out, seagulls came after him and shit on his head.

Captain Cheng and the other young soldiers who followed him stayed away from Li Da, keeping a "safe" distance, and arrived at Shi Xia's house, injured from trying to hold back their laughter.

"Captain Cheng? Why are you here? It's a rare guest, please come in."

Shi Xia warmly entertained them and served water to Captain Cheng and others.

Captain Cheng took the water with a smile and pretended to be ignorant, because he was not in a hurry anyway.

Li Da, who was behind him, arrived at the door when Captain Cheng was drinking water, but was kicked out by Grandpa Shi with a broom.

Are you kidding me? You want to enter the yard he cleaned with bird poop all over you?

Shi Xia held the thermos and said politely, "I'm sorry, my grandfather likes cleanliness. I stepped on the mud outside and was not allowed to come in."

"Your...special condition means you can't come in."

Shi Xia spoke innocently, but his eyes showed gloating.

Li Da was very angry, but at the same time he found that the seagull above his head flew away.

The ones I had been chasing all the way here flew away.

"You—you made the bird shit on my head!"

Li Da pointed at Shi Xia angrily.

With a "snap", Li Da's fingers were slapped down by Grandpa Shi.

"Point at me girl, and I'll break your hand!"

Li Da's numb hands trembled and he looked at Captain Cheng angrily.

Battalion Commander Cheng is even more innocent.

"Comrade Li Da, I'm just showing you the way. We don't have any right to force anyone to do work for you. This is also against our discipline."

In other words: there's nothing I can do to help.

Li Da closed his eyes and then opened them again.

A fisherwoman, just fool her first! As long as he gets this research... none of these people will think about it.

"Comrade Shi Xia, I heard you're a good swimmer. I'd like to ask you—"

"No help."

"I haven't said anything yet?"

Shi Xia put down the kettle nonchalantly and said, "Even if you invite me to a funeral, I won't go."

Li Da: The desire to kill someone has never reached such a peak!

Battalion Commander Cheng suppressed the saliva that was choking him and praised in his heart: This mouth... is very precise.

"Comrade Shi Xia, I'm a scientific researcher. My research can strengthen the navy and help soldiers complete their missions. It's crucial. Your refusal will prevent any of this from happening. Can you really bear it?"

Li Da put the blame on others.

Shi Xia looked at Li Da with disdain.

"You? You have such a low character, how can you possibly create any technology that could help the military? I think you're the one who needs to show off your achievements."

"Stop talking nonsense here. It stinks. It's even making my grandfather feel sick."

"If you publicly apologize to Li Daniu, I will help the army, not you, Li Da."

Li Da's nails dug into his palm.

Public apology?

Wouldn't that mean he admitted to lying and abandoned the matter of saving his soldiers?

If this is true, he will definitely be punished and his reputation will be damaged.

"Comrade Shi Xia, I am willing to provide funding as long as you are willing to go to the sea to salvage the fish."

"No."

Shi Xia brought the pot to see the guest off. Captain Cheng drank the water in the cup in one gulp, then stood up and left.

"Comrade Shi Xia, we're leaving first."

Captain Cheng was about to leave, and Shi Xia saw him off. After he walked out of the door, he closed it with a bang, blocking Li Da's sight.

Li Da was in a dilemma.

He didn't expect that a little fisher girl would be so difficult to deal with?

But does he really want to apologize?

Li Da stared at the door, maybe there was another way.
