Chapter 689 Octopus in a Crock Pot

Taking advantage of the beautiful wind and sunny weather, and the calm sea, they went to sea for two more days before taking a break, because Ye Xiaoxi was one year old.

Ye Yaodong and the others simply collected all the sticky nets that were about to be scrapped. The number of toad fish has dropped sharply in the past two days, only three to four hundred kilograms per day, but they had to waste a day to collect them. They couldn't take care of the trawling, so they could still earn Just enough money for gas.

Therefore, the father and son discussed it and decided that they had to take a two-day break anyway, so they took the opportunity to take it back and abandon it, and in a few days they would specifically trawl or release long lines.

Although abandoned fishing nets are useless and take up space when taken back, they are not unethical enough to throw them into the sea.

The lethality of abandoned fishing nets in the sea is not ordinary for some marine creatures. The whale shark they encountered before was a victim.

Ocean pollution also harms their interests.

When the fishing net was taken back today, there were also two small green dragons stuck on it. He kept them both and planned to add some extra food the next day. He also kept some good seafood and put them at Ah Cai's place to keep them fresh. He asked him to buy some more.

As for the city, he asked Uncle Zhou to transport all the dried fish left at home. It happened that the army called yesterday and asked for 2,000 kilograms, so he called his father-in-law and asked him to send it to the army with Uncle Zhou. , after sending them off, let Uncle Zhou pick up the two old people.

After several deliveries, plus not many goods received recently, his family has now completely delivered all the goods to the city, and there is nothing left.

The stores in the city have about five or six thousand in stock, which can last for a while, and the rest will be collected gradually. The main thing is to see what Azheng sells.

Because there were not many fishing nets for the father and son, it was difficult to retrieve them early. When they docked, the sun had not yet set, and it was only after 3 o'clock.

When Father Ye sent the fishing net back first, Father Lin and Mother Lin were already at home. They were all smiles. After a long chat, they helped unload the fishing nets and piled them in the corner.

Then he pushed it to the dock and continued to transport the toad fish back.

Mother Lin also volunteered to help kill the fish with a kitchen knife, but he couldn't stop her even if he wanted to.

Ye Yaodong really felt that his father-in-law and his mother-in-law were really bad people, much better than his parents who scolded him at every turn, disliked him at every turn, and disliked him at every turn...

However, things are getting better, and now there are less objections...

"A Dong, come here." Lin's father waved to him and pulled him into the house, "You don't have time to go to the city during this period, and the money you earn cannot be handed over to you, and it keeps accumulating more and more. I hide everywhere in fear every day."

"It's just a few days of rest. I'll bring them all back when I come back. Come and count them. These days, I have so much money in my hand, and my heart is always there. I have to keep one eye open when I sleep, and I don't dare to close it. I’ll give it to you quickly so that I can have a good sleep in peace of mind.”

Ye Yaodong wiped his hands on his body before following him into the house, "Just give it to Ah Qing..."

"How does she, a woman, know about the store? Of course I have to leave it to you. Let me tell you in detail. I hid the money in the child's room. I just came back at noon and slept in the child's room."

"It's all the same, it's all the same, give her the same thing as me..."

"That won't work, I still have to give it to you. How can she understand what I told you..."

Father Lin has reached this age, and he feels like a mirror. Giving this money to his daughter is different from giving it to his son-in-law. If it is given to his daughter, it will be a little different.

As soon as he entered the children's room, he went to the cabinet in the corner and took out a large bag of cloth and handed it to Ye Yaodong. It was so heavy that Ye Yaodong had to hold it with both hands.

"It's quite a lot, and it's quite heavy. You can take it back to the house and count it. I also put a piece of paper inside to record how much I sold every day. I can't read either, so I just write down a few numbers on it. You can make do with it. Look, otherwise I’m afraid I’ll have a bad memory after spending too many days.”

"Hey, okay, thank you for your hard work, mom. The shops in the city are all supported by you."

Father Lin waved his hand and said with a smile: "Why are the family talking about this? If you can help, you should help. You take it back to the house and count it slowly. I will go out and take a look."

Seeing that he was dirty and wet, Ye Yaodong went back to the house first, and handed the money to Ah Qing to count first. He had to take a shower first.

Lin Xiuqing took the heavy bag of money, which felt soft and full of banknotes. She said with a smile: "There should be two or three thousand in here, right?"

"That's about it. Didn't you send 2,000 kilograms to the army today? It's worth 800 yuan here. Add in the money from selling it in more than a week, it's more than 2,000 yuan."

"You will come out and give it to them when dozens of Zhang Datong will be together. It will be regarded as this month's salary. It is paid in advance. I will bring it back to them when I send them home after lunch tomorrow."

"Okay."

Ah Qing happily fell on the bed holding a bag of money and started counting.

Ye Yaodong glanced at the pile of banknotes and coins that looked like a small mountain, and felt that the amount was quite a lot. Although the cost accounted for more than half of it, the profit was still considerable, so he couldn't go into detail.

He brought a basin of hot water into the house, sat on a chair and took a shower while watching Lin Xiuqing's money-obsessed grinning and counting money without ever closing her mouth.

"Wipe your saliva."

"ah?"

Lin Xiuqing was counting happily. When he heard what he said, she wiped her chin. It was really a little bit. When she opened her mouth to speak, a small drop came out, which instantly made her embarrassed.

"I kept drooling and counting the money, and my saliva dripped down hahaha..."

"I thought he was a money addict."

She glanced at him angrily, "It's not like I haven't seen money before. My family's savings are more than this. Stop arguing. Look, I forgot to count how much you interrupted me."

Ye Yaodong also liked to see her happy. He twisted a hot towel, grabbed the head and tail ends, put them on the back and rubbed them back and forth. He thought to himself that this was the meaning of making money. His wife would be happy, his children would be rich, and his parents would be happy. Friends move forward together.

Just as he was rubbing it, there was a distant voice outside the house.

"Mom, I'm back."

"Mom, I'm leaving."

Didn't even stop for a second.

Lin Xiuqing just stopped counting money, turned to look at the door, and muttered, "Like a gust of wind, my feet didn't even touch the ground, and I ran away again."

"Going to the beach to collect bottles and cans?"

"Definitely, it's been like this for the past few days. As soon as I came back, I threw my schoolbag and ran away immediately. My feet didn't stay in one place for two seconds."

Ye Yaodong tossed the towel into the basin, took the folded clothes and pants on the table and put them on, "I'll go and take a look. I haven't seen how they collected the bottles and cans. By the way, I'll take their white goods today." Zhang Du is staying here, and we will have a meal at noon tomorrow. There is no trawl today, so there are quite few things."

"Whether you can add food or not depends on your ability."

Two days ago, she secretly cooked Bai Zhang while they were at school, and lied to her two sons that he was dead. Since they also caught new ones, they didn't care so much.

Now, if he wants to take over the belongings of the children next door right under his nose, it will only depend on his ability.

"Why are you so incompetent? How can you have any objections to honoring your third uncle?"

He said it harshly, but before going out, he grabbed a handful of coins from the bed and put them in his pocket.

It's not that he doesn't have confidence in himself, but that these children are definitely not that high in consciousness!

It's easy to deal with if you have money. There's nothing that money can't buy. If one point doesn't work, just two points. If two points doesn't work, just five points. Selling it to him is better than having it confiscated by their mother.

Lin Xiuqing looked at his back, chuckled, and shook her head, "You are tough! You don't want to buy it with the children."

Ye Yaodong also heard it and didn't care about her joke.

In the yard, Father Lin and Mother Lin were helping to kill fish, and Father Ye was also helping. He had changed his clothes and must have just come here after taking a shower.

He walked around them and trotted out, chasing the group of kids toward the beach.

In the time it took him to put on his clothes, they were all reduced to little black dots, and they almost couldn't catch up. Only Yangyang, with his short legs, was at the back and was still shouting, "Wait a minute."

At this time, the tide had not yet receded to the bottom. Ye Yaodong ran for a short distance and then slowed down. At the same time, he picked up Ye Chengyang, who had fallen on the beach halfway through the run, and held him in his arms, patting his clothes and pants.

"You are not as big as a bucket, but you are running with such a big bucket. I can't kill you."

If the bucket hadn't been used to hold seafood, so it smelled fishy, ​​was dirty, and had some water, he would have wanted to put the bucket over his head to make sure it was completely covered.

Fortunately, it didn't hurt if he fell on the sand, and he wore thick pants in spring. After Ye Chengyang was picked up, he just patted his hands and hugged Ye Yaodong's neck again.

"Dad, why are you back? Come on, come on, they have all run away..."

"What's the rush? The tide hasn't receded yet, so we can walk slowly."

"There are crabs there, dad, there are crabs..."

Ye Yaodong looked to the right where his finger pointed. Don't want the stone crab.

"No, it's more important to chase your brothers."

"Oh, Dad, walk faster, walk faster, walk faster..."

Ye Chengyang saw everyone else running away, feeling anxious and could only keep urging him.

Ye Yaodong was urged to walk quickly and catch up with the children.

At this time, because the tide was out, there were more children running on the beach, and many of them followed them to join in the fun.

The tide was also slowly receding as they trotted, but it was still not far enough.

"Pull up your trousers and walk over? Just a little water, up to your knees at most, it'll be fine..."

"Okay, okay, mom can't see it anyway, so I don't know..."

Ye Yaodong trotted forward and knocked Ye Chenghai on the forehead, "I saw it."

"Ah, third uncle, how did you come here?"

"How would I know you were brave enough to go into the water if you didn't come?"

"It's not deep, I'm sure nothing will happen..."

"No, if there's one, there's two. Go around and pick up some good stuff for me and come back. Walk around and come back, and the water will recede."

"All right."

Adults are so annoying!

After Ye Chenghai cursed in his heart, he had no choice but to walk around honestly carrying the bucket.

Other people's children were fearless. They just rolled up their trousers and went into the water. They wanted to take the opportunity to see if there was any octopus in the bottles and jars they put there? But they were stopped by a few of them.

"Don't move. If you dare to touch my things, I'll beat you to death!"

"Yes, don't touch our things!"

"Let's just see..."

"You can't even look at it, we haven't seen it yet, no one is allowed to look at it!"

Just so domineering!

"What's so great? Tomorrow we'll also make a bunch of bottles and jars to put in and catch octopus."

"Tsk, learn from us~"

"Who said that only you can let go, and we can too..."

…

A group of little kids were chattering there, but they didn't start fighting, probably because they usually play better.

Ye Yaodong watched them running back and forth on the beach, and as the tide receded, they also walked little by little toward the low tide point.

After the tide almost receded, they also ran to the bottles and cans.

"Wow, the tide has finally gone out, we can catch octopus..."

"Catch octopus~"

"Wow, we can catch octopus again~"

"Hurry up~ hurry up~"
