Chapter 237 Shake It Off
After weighing the fish, he and Ah Cai bought 100 kilograms of cheap miscellaneous fish and 20 kilograms of shrimps, all of which were intended to be used as bait. There were still more than a dozen kilograms of today's caged goods in his bucket.
If you go out to trawl at night, you can probably drag a little more, which should be barely enough. These goods will be directly recorded in the account. Anyway, they can be deducted when the time comes.
After Ah Cai finished writing down the accounts, he pulled out two cigarettes for him and chatted for a few words, "Brother, I haven't seen you for a few days. It's been quiet these two days. Why didn't you go? Why did you just have a doctor?" This bit of stuff?"
"My father-in-law broke his foot. I went back with my wife for a visit. I helped him with his work for two days. I just came back this morning. The ground cage had been left in the sea for a few days and was confiscated. The fish stinked and was thrown away, so I was shocked to see it. Not much goods.”
"Oh, that's it. It's time to go back and take a look. Recently, there have been a lot more people doing longline fishing in the village. My small fish and shrimps are very easy to sell. So if you come here early today, then a little later. It’s gone. If you want it next time, tell me in advance and I’ll save it for you, otherwise it won’t be easy for you to get the bait.”
"Okay, thank you very much."
This thank you was quite sincere and not as casual as usual.
It’s hard to have no bait. His 1,000 hooks require a lot of bait. It would be best to say hello and leave it for him in advance.
Otherwise, if he buys it elsewhere, the price may be higher and it is not easy to buy. Most people keep the small fish and shrimps and dry them themselves, and few people sell them.
I heard that some people in the village couldn't get enough bait, so most of them cut up sardines and bluefish and used them as bait. This is considered the cheapest fish, but if you have small fish and shrimp to make up for it, you can save more.
This guy works like a girl, and he looks quite bold right now!
Ye Yaodong chatted with him for a while. After smoking a cigarette, he saw another fishing boat coming in. It was time for him to be busy collecting the goods, so he said hello and left first.
The sea cicada in the bucket looked to be a little over ten kilograms, and his family would definitely not be able to eat it all. After returning home, he poured a bowl for each of his sister-in-law and sister-in-law next door, and it looked like they weighed a kilogram each.
I also sent two kilograms to the old house, and two kilograms to Lin Jishang. Aguang had a small family, so he only poured one bowl.
He kept about one kilogram at home, and seeing that there was still more than two kilograms left, he sent it to Uncle Lin Jingye's house, saying by the way that he would come over to move the rolling wheel after dinner.
Lin Xiuqing didn't feel bad when she saw him giving out all the food. She would feel bad if he stayed at home to eat it all.
If you want to make this thing delicious, it will consume a lot of fuel, so you might as well give it away.
"Honey, would you like to fry up a bowl of cicadas tonight? That's all. It's good to fry up and drink with it."
"Well, where are these prawns, boiled?"
Ye Yaodong smiled flatteringly, "Cut it in half and use some scallion oil? I boil the shrimp every day. It's rare that this shrimp girl has such a big head. How about some scallion oil?"
Lin Xiuqing gave him a blank look and said, "You are the only one who knows how to eat. You can save all the good things and eat them without feeling any distress."
"Food is the most important thing for the people. Aren't I thinking about improving the food at home?"
"What's wrong with the food at home?"
"Just tell me whether you want to do it or not!"
Lin Xiuqing glanced at him without saying a word. She directly took the shrimp head and sea cicadas in and washed them. Following his instructions, she cut the shrimp head from top to bottom and cut it into two halves. He left 4 They all look like this when they come back.
There happened to be rice cooking in the pot, so I put a few kiwis on top to steam.
Ye Yaodong stretched his head proudly and glanced behind her for a few times, then took away his youngest son who was holding her thigh, "Go play with your bastard, or I'll stew him tonight."
The eldest son was playing with some of his cousins at the door. When he suddenly heard these words, he rushed in immediately, took the basin with the bastard in his arms, looked at him warily, and said with a pinched neck: "You You said you wouldn’t eat it and raised it for me.”
Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes, only half-listening to what he was told, and was too lazy to pay attention to this idiot. He carried the bucket and headed for the back door.
In addition to small fish and shrimps, there are also two big squids inside. You can kill the salted fish for rice, and take some by the way to make hot and sour fish fillet soup at night.
He felt that he was becoming more and more like a good family man. He would help kill fish when he came back from the sea. When other men came back from work, they would be waiting to be served.
For example, although his eldest brother and second brother did not wait for him as soon as they came back, they rarely helped kill fish when they came back. They always took a quick shower, then sat at the table and drank two glasses of wine, and then went back to the house to lie down after they were full. rest.
I only help out with some work at home when I'm not at sea, which is pretty good.
Generally speaking, no matter whether a man in the village can make money or not, he is the boss in the family, and he has to be given foot-washing water.
After Ye Yaodong finished processing the fish, he handed it to Lin Xiuqing to cook, and then he went to take a bath in the house.
While taking a shower, he heard another commotion in the room next door. All he heard was the loud voice of his second sister-in-law. He didn't hear the voice of his second brother. He didn't know what was going on. Although his second sister-in-law used to be careless. A little bit, but on the whole he was passable, and he wouldn't yell at his second brother.
When he came out from the shower, there were still sounds of beatings and beatings next door, and he looked at his wife with questioning eyes.
Lin Xiuqing pretended to have the freshly fried sea cicadas out of the pot, and then said in a low voice: "The second sister-in-law went back to her parents' house in the afternoon and seemed to have heard that her cousin Meiying's family owed a lot of money, and then she went to her house to ask for the money. It seemed that she didn't want it. When I arrived, she kept looking unhappy. As soon as the second brother came back, she started scolding him. "
"Oh, why did I only hear her cursing? I didn't hear the second brother's voice."
As Ye Yaodong spoke, he took the big bowl from her hand, grabbed one and stuffed it into his mouth. As a result, the hot sea cicadas rolled around in his mouth. It stopped being hot for a while before he chewed and swallowed it.
"It's very hot when it comes out of the pot. Be careful to burn your lips. The food next door should calm down in a while. Let's eat first."
"Well, don't worry about them. I will definitely not get the money back."
Ye Yaodong pressed the tip of his tongue against the roof of his mouth. He felt a little uncomfortable, as if the skin had been burned. "Blow on it, it seems like the skin has been burned."
As he spoke, he squatted down and opened his mouth...
Lin Xiuqing gave him a blank look, ignored him, took the bowl in his hand, walked to the table, and then called her two sons who were playing tortoise to eat.
"My son's mouth was burned by rice, and you could help him blow it."
He followed her, but when she ignored her, he continued: "Then let's blow it after the child goes to bed tonight?"
"Dad, can I help you blow it?"
Ye Yaodong gave him a disgusted look, "What's the matter with you? Sit down and eat!"
"Yangyang, give your dad a blowjob. His mouth is burned." Lin Xiuqing directly stuffed her little son into his arms.
Ye Yaodong was forced to take it, and when he saw his son coming towards him with his mouth open, blowing air in and out, spitting on his face, he felt disgusted and quickly took him away.
"Ah, stop blowing, stop blowing~ That's enough, that's all~ You sit back next to your mother..."
As soon as he put his little son down, he quickly wiped the saliva from his face.
Lin Xiuqing glanced at him with a smile in her eyes, and pretended that nothing happened as she greeted the two children to eat.
She marinated the sea cicadas for a while, then wrapped them in sweet potato starch. After the oil was hot in the pan, she put them in the pan and fried them. The fried sea cicadas were light yellow and crispy, with an aroma of oil. The two children sat down When he got off, he immediately reached out his hand to grab Hai Zhizhi.
The crispy and crispy ones immediately attracted their liking. They both grabbed several in front of them, for fear that they would be gone if it was too late. This was a bad habit left over from eating in the old house. As long as there is delicious food, the children They all rushed to grab some first and put them in front of themselves.
"Slow down, it will get hot. No one will compete with you. There is a big bowl over there."
After saying this, the two children felt that it was right. Now they were the only family eating, and no one was grabbing the food.
Ye Yaodong only felt that the skin on his upper jaw was really burned. He reached out and touched it and tore it off. A small piece of white skin was torn off by him.
"Look, I didn't lie to you, my skin was really burned."
"Who makes you so anxious? It will be fine in two days."
"Then blow?"
Lin Xiuqing glanced at him and gave him a look to experience for yourself!
Ye Yaodong thought it was interesting.
You can't blame him for being so shameless, as he has been eating well at his mother-in-law's house these past few days!
After the two children went to bed at night, he skillfully moved a nest for them...
Lin Xiuqing looked at someone approaching, pushed his shoulder, and whispered, "Can't you just calm down a little bit?"
"It's that turtle that's a bit tonic..."
"Don't touch..."
"Blow it and it hurts, it hurts, wipe it and it's 100,000,..."
Lin Xiuqing blushed instantly, "What are you talking about..."
"It's nothing, it's just what you think, and there's one more thing..."
"What?"
"Take a shake and live to be ninety-nine..."
"??"
She came to her senses instantly and blushed, "You want to go to sea at night..."
"It doesn't matter, I'll be there soon..."
