Chapter 808: Drunk
The original half-barrel of sea water contained various goods, plus seven or eight pounds of mud snails, but the water rose to seventy percent full, and it felt like a full harvest.
Ye Yaodong turned around with the bucket in hand, wanting to see where the dogs had gone. Who knew that one of them was digging a hole not far behind him.
No wonder he said that the ones he brought over in the previous batch were either clams, clams, or cat's-eye snails. It was clear that the ones he brought over the first time included fish and shrimps, so he was just lazy here.
He walked towards the nearest little black dog, and saw that its two front paws were pawing skillfully without stopping.
After a while, he saw the shell of a cat's-eye snail lying in the pit. The huge piece of snail meat had absorbed the sea water. Before it could shrink back, it was bitten by the dog and sent directly to him. in front of.
This time, the service was very attentive. He put the dog's head into the bucket and let go without his hand. Other dogs also lined up one after another to put the dog's head in the bucket and let go.
He should be able to just sit back and enjoy his success, right?
"You go find some stranded fish and shrimps and come back, don't just dig holes?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a little black dog also grabbed his trousers and pulled them.
Ye Yaodong had experience and knew that this was trying to tell him to follow it. He kicked it twice and said, "Where do you want to take me? Lead the way!"
The little black dog ran in front, he followed behind, and four other dogs also trotted behind him.
After running a few steps, he saw a small pile of sea urchins on the beach in front of him. Ye Yaodong was satisfied and wasn't stupid. He felt that the prickly ones were not easy to hold, so he pulled them into a pile. There were seven or eight in this small pile. , enough to eat three stewed eggs at home.
The little black dog ran to the sea urchin and stopped, turned around and barked at him. He also squatted down and picked it up in the bucket.
"Okay, today's harvest is pretty good. You can either keep looking around, I'll wait for you here."
"Woof woof~"
Ye Yaodong looked at the watch on his wrist. He could play for another half hour and go back. Ah Qing probably didn't want to cook at the moment. She would probably be willing to stand up and cook when the children came back.
He simply sat down on the beach and waited to enjoy the benefits. With these dogs working for him, he could sit and smoke two cigarettes leisurely.
These dogs are very efficient after becoming proficient. One of them will come back after a while, holding a variety of things in its mouth, some large and some small, with various varieties. Except for fish, everything else is suitable for steaming in one pot.
When he saw that the time was almost up, he shouted to them to go back together.
One person and five dogs started running on the beach~
It's a pity that there is no sun, otherwise the picture would be quite beautiful under the setting sun.
He sprinkled the seawater in the bucket as he ran. He didn't stop running until the fish in the bucket had just been sprinkled out.
The dogs immediately rushed forward and wanted to pick them up, but they refused to give in. A few of them barked wildly, and the aggressive ones almost started fighting. Ye Yaodong had no choice but to kick the two who fought the hardest.
"What are you doing? What are you doing? There's going to be a fight here, so be honest and go home."
After saying that, he bent down to pick it up and put it back into the bucket. Then he stopped running and walked slowly.
When he walked to the door of his house, he saw a gust of wind blowing beside him, and then the courtyard door was pushed open with a bang. One after another children ran past him and rushed into the yard, shouting, "Mom, I I’m back and the TV is installed.”
"Uncle Third, has the TV been installed?"
"Third uncle..."
"Third uncle..."
Ye Yaodong: Third uncle is behind you...
They were all running by him, so why were they all so blind at such a young age?
He shook his head helplessly and walked inside. As soon as he entered the yard, he heard them screaming.
Lin Xiuqing was so mesmerized that she forgot to cook. Now that they came back, she was reminded that it was time to cook.
She stood up still unfinished and saw Ye Yaodong who had just returned from the door.
"You're back? Why don't you watch TV? Just run out after pretending."
What a beautiful TV it is. I bought it all, and I bought it first and then later, but after installing it, I ran away without even looking at it?
I was just watching TV before, my attention was diverted and I didn’t think much about it, but now I still feel it’s quite strange.
"Is there anything good to see? I don't like to see it."
"Then you still buy it?"
"Isn't this all for you? You stay at home all day long. I'm afraid that you will be bored. I bought a TV for you to pass the time. Otherwise, why would I buy it? How much can I watch when I am at sea all day long? Eyes? Plus it’s only 300 yuan, so it’s really a bargain.”
So I took one back without hesitation.
Lin Xiuqing also had a smile on her face after being coaxed by him, "It's really pretty. No wonder people in the village gather around the doors of those houses at night, waiting to watch TV."
She actually wanted to watch TV, but it was quite a distance away and there was a lot of work at home. At night, when they came back from the sea, there were endless fish to kill. Only last year, when they were free, did they go over and take a look.
"You cook first, and I'll kill the fish in the bucket. I just went for a walk on the beach and picked up a lot of goods..."
"Stop picking up crabs. They are all shells, so peeling them is too troublesome."
"There are no crabs. Xiaojiu played to death with the few I picked up today. They were all snails and fish. There was a grouper, 10 sea urchins, and seven or eight pounds of mud snails. Don't cook the mud snails at night. Put it in a bucket and let it vomit sand overnight, and I'll tidy up the contents later."
Lin Xiuqing stretched her head and took a look into his bucket, but she couldn't see the mud snails underneath. She only saw a lot of miscellaneous goods on it, including everything.
"Then you kill the fish first. I'll cook the rice and pick out the rest. I'll wash it and steam it later."
"Um."
The couple worked together to prepare dinner, but the main room was noisy because of a group of children.
When Ye's mother came back, the atmosphere in the room was pushed to the top. She rushed back as soon as possible after work. But what surprised him was that his mother didn't bring anyone back to show off the TV?
This is an unprecedented first time!
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that his mother came back alone. He had already prepared that when his mother came back from get off work, she would bring a bunch of women or relatives over to touch and look at it.
When his mother entered the house, he stretched his neck and looked behind her unexpectedly, "Mom, are you coming back alone?"
"Otherwise? I'm bringing my family with me? Isn't your father here with you all afternoon?"
"Huh? Ah, yes."
"Oh, this TV is placed at home, it looks very impressive. My darling, show me what news is being talked about now. Please step aside and show me..."
"Mom, didn't you show off this afternoon?"
As long as it was left in the past, she would have wanted to tell the world, bring people back, see the strength of his family, and get a lot of envious looks and compliments.
Abnormal, abnormal, a little unusual in the afternoon!
Mother Ye glanced at him angrily, "The whole village knows you bought a TV, do you still want me to show off? Everyone praised me so much that my ears almost became calluses, and they even said they would come to your house to watch TV."
"I was humble and said that Lin Laoliu also bought it. They all said that they should go to Lin Laoliu's house and have a look. They said that it is not easy to talk here, and there are too many dogs at home. It seems that someone said that they were killed in the afternoon. Your goose chattered a bit."
Ye Yaodong's mouth twitched.
It turns out it's not his mother's problem, it's his problem.
Very good!
Lin Xiuqing took a break from her busy schedule and took a look at the TV. She stood next to them and smiled, "Haha, the geese raised by the back door are only about two months old. It seems to be less than one o'clock. This is not a big deal. Wait until it gets older." A little, if it grows to ten or twenty pounds, it will be great."
"When it gets that big, it can be killed by tonic."
"Don't just think about eating. This big goose is a good caregiver. Chickens and ducks are quite easy to buy. But this little goose is not easy to buy. Don't worry about it." Mother Ye took the time to return. One sentence.
It suddenly occurred to him that he could move the geese to a small workshop to raise them. He would be a good caregiver and the safety factor would be high.
"Have you seen the date when the small workshop will start working?"
I went directly to town this morning and brought back a TV. I worked all afternoon and forgot to ask my mother if there was a day when construction would start.
"I saw it. I just took the time to see someone in the morning. I told Ah Qing when I got back. It happened to be the day after tomorrow, Mazu's last day of travel. She started work early in the morning. I asked your father to call someone in the morning."
Lin Xiuqing also said: "I also forgot about it. I was so fascinated by watching TV that I forgot to tell you about it."
"Okay, let's settle it down. We'll circle the outer wall as soon as possible. When the time comes, we can move two or three geese over there and build a nest for them while the wall is being built."
"Isn't this not good? We happened to be on the roadside, and those geese were chattering..."
"Then move some dogs over."
"I'm afraid they'll come back again."
"Just tie them up, or wait until they have another litter of puppies and move them there."
Lin Xiuqing was confused, so they had too many dogs...
Forget it, don’t worry about it anymore, let’s wait until the exterior wall is finished.
The people in the room watched mesmerized. Even a few children went to the back and fell silent. They all stared at the news broadcast on the TV quietly.
Sometimes if the signal is not good, Ye's father will go outside to shake the bamboo pole. No one is willing to take pictures of the TV like Ye Yaodong did.
Some children outside ran to the next door and shouted to ask Ye Chenghai to play. They didn't go out. At most, they ran out and shouted proudly in the yard.
"I'm watching TV at my third uncle's house. I won't go."
The children outside were itching to hear them watching TV, but when they saw the high courtyard walls, the dogs in the yard, and the pile of geese at the back door, they were put off.
Through a wall, I could only hear the intermittent sound of the TV inside. After listening for a while with their ears against the wall, they gave up and ran away with their hoops rolling.
