Chapter 16 Elf Princess Xixi
With the familiar "beep" sound, the tiny figure of Zhuzhu appeared through the door, dragging a large wooden barrel.

Wang Yue ran over to help him carry the bucket, and saw a lot of shrimps, a group of small shrimps and one big shrimp.

I quickly asked Mr. Jiang: "Mr. Jiang, what kind of shrimp is this? Xiao Zhuzi, where did you get these shrimps? They are still alive."

Wang Yue called everyone over with a shout. Xiao Zhuzi was frightened to see so many people surrounding him and shrank in front of Wang Yue.

Xiao Zhuzi then looked around the supermarket and saw that it had changed drastically: "Sister, why has your supermarket changed? It's much bigger than before."

Wang Yue said: "Yes! After renovating it, does it look better?"

Zhuzi said: "How beautiful!"

Wang Yue said, "You haven't told me where you got the shrimps?"

Zhuzi said, "The teacher gave us a day off today because of something. I went to the back mountain to see if there was anything delicious. I saw this big shrimp in the stream. This kind of shrimp is delicious and can be sold in the city. My father said it can be sold for dozens of dollars. I caught one for you to try. I wonder if you have eaten it before?"

Wang Yue said: "I have never seen it, let alone eaten it. What do you call this shrimp?"

Zhuzi said, "It's called a prawn." Isn't it a prawn? This one must weigh a pound! But it's a freshwater prawn.

"Then let's call it the big shrimp! What about this small one?"

Zhuzi was a little shy: "I thought this shrimp was not enough for all of you, so I scooped up two baskets of shrimp from the ditch next to my house and brought them here in buckets, so they wouldn't die."

"Wow! How can there be so many shrimps? Just two baskets?"

Zhuzi said: "We usually scoop it up to feed the chickens, and we don't need to feed them anything else. Sometimes we scoop it up to eat ourselves, but there is not much meat and it is difficult to prepare."

"Oh my god! We can't even eat them, but you're feeding them to the chickens. Mr. Jiang, have you ever seen this shrimp? Why don't we have it here?"

Mr. Jiang said, "This small one is a river shrimp. When we were young, we could find them in every ditch. People your dad's age should have seen them too."

"Then why haven't I seen it?"

Mr. Jiang said: "In the past, when the environment was good, these small shrimps were everywhere. Later, pesticides and fertilizers were used everywhere in rural areas. Although it looks very common, it has very high requirements for water quality. Now it can only be found in the remote mountains in southern my country."

"What about this big one?"

Mr. Jiang said, "I have never seen such a big freshwater shrimp. Have you seen it?" Then he looked at the other people.

Song Jiyang took a look and said, "It looks like a Mekong River shrimp. The locals call it a Mekong River shrimp because it grows in the Mekong River. I don't know what it is called specifically."

Liu Xuehua immediately took out her phone to check, and then compared it with the pictures on her phone: "This shrimp is called Macrobrachium rosenbergii, and it has very high requirements for water quality. They like the Mekong River very much and make their home there, so they are also called Mekong River shrimp."

Wang Yue asked expectantly, "Captain Song, have you eaten it before?"

Song Jiyang was a little amused: "I have eaten it. The locals cook it in a simple way, just boil it in water and then eat it with water. It tastes very fresh."

"Then let's try Chef Zhang's cooking today." Wang Yue pulled Zhu towards the food area: "You brought me a gift, so I should give you a gift in return. Let's see, what do you want to eat?"

"Sister, why is there so much meat?" Actually, there was not much, just two chickens and two ducks, which were killed, plucked, and the internal organs removed, as well as half a pig and about 10 to 20 kilograms of beef.

Everything Chef Zhang uses comes from here. The meat here is replaced every morning, and the replaced meat goes into the garrison canteen outside.

Seeing that Zhuzi hadn't said anything for a long time, he picked up the knife and started cutting. He cut three or four pounds of pork, cut a piece of beef, and then took a white-striped chicken, put it in his bag, and handed it to Zhuzi: "The dark-colored one is beef. Take it back to nourish your mother."

Zhuzi: "There's beef? I've never eaten it before!" Wang Yue replaced Zhuzi's bucket, filled it with meat and sent Zhuzi back.

Lunch was eaten in the dining area on the first floor. Wang Yue got to eat large and small shrimps as she wished. They were delicious, worthy of being wild shrimps with very high survival requirements.

After lunch, several people sat on the sofa and were drowsy. The "beeping" sound coming from the computer was particularly clear in the quiet supermarket.

Wang Yue suddenly came to her senses: "Guess who this is? Tang Qiao and Xiao Zhuzi were here today, so they probably won't be here again. Guess who this is?"

Li Xiaofei: “Witch”

Liu Xuehua: “Pastor”

Mr. Jiang: "Emperor"

Wen Hao: “Beggar”

Song Jiyang: “Soldier”

Wang Yue: “Fish seller”

Joking aside, everyone was staring at the portal intently to prevent any accidents from happening.

At this time, a little girl of five or six years old appeared through the door. She was an extremely cute girl who looked like a Barbie doll.

The naturally curly brown short hair is adorned with two bows, snow-white skin, big cute eyes, a slightly upturned mouth, and a green princess dress, everything is so cute.

A little girl who was so cute that she could make all female animals fall in love with her appeared in the supermarket, and several women immediately surrounded the little girl.

"Little sister, you are so cute!"

"Little sister, how old are you this year?"

"Little sister, why are you alone? Why don't you come with your parents?"

Although she was surrounded by three women, the little girl was not at all shy. She pretended to be profound and said seriously with a straight face: "I am not a little sister, I am Princess Xixi!"

"Oh! Little sister, your name is Xixi! Your name is so nice."

"Oh! I've already told you, I'm not a little sister. I'm fifty years old. You should call me Princess Xixi. I really am a princess."

"Did you say you were five instead of fifty?"

"I'm not wrong. I am fifty years old. I just forgot to introduce myself. I am from the elf tribe."

Several women immediately showed envious eyes. Wang Yue asked: "Then how did you regain your youth?"

Princess Xixi said: "What do you mean by rejuvenation? I haven't grown up yet. We elves have to be 180 years old to reach adulthood."

Wang Yue asked: "You said you are an elf, but I found that you look exactly like us humans. What is the difference between you elves and humans?"

Princess Xixi tilted her head and thought seriously: "I heard from my mother that you humans were conceived in your mother's belly, while we elves were conceived by the World Tree. I was conceived on the World Tree for a hundred years, and when the time came, I became a child."

Wang Yue was really envious this time: "You elves are so lucky. You don't have to suffer the pain of pregnancy for ten months. You just need to hang the baby on the World Tree to grow, and you will get a baby when you pick it. How embarrassing for those pregnant women who think giving birth is like going through the gates of hell."
