Chapter 1024 Rare (Monthly Ticket Plus More Updates)

Having many sons is something to be proud of.

Preferring sons over daughters is not just talk. Although there is no succession to the throne, the idea of ​​raising children to provide for old age is deeply ingrained in the minds of the previous generation.

In those days, sons were the labor force. If you didn't have a son, you would be looked down upon. If you really wanted to go to sea, if something happened to you, all your wealth would be taken advantage of by others and your family would be ruined. That's why you were so determined to have a son.

After the two old men complimented each other for a while, Ah Cai came back.

He said that he had to take him to the boat to see how much ice there was. They definitely didn't consume it as fast as the fish boat, and the amount they could collect every day was limited.

"It's not much. We originally only added about two days' worth of ice. We also thought that the weather might not be very good next time, so we didn't dare to add more. Who knew that we would have to come back after only one day of walking, and there would be ice cubes left. It’s just over half, and the storage space is originally limited.”

"It's not a lot, that's okay."

"Let my dad take you on two boats to take a look? Then you can probably give me some."

Ah Cai nodded.

Ye Yaodong then turned to his father and said, "I want to go back to kill that hairy fish and tinker with that fish maw. Can you take him to the boat to have a look?"

Father Pei also handed the key to Father Ye, "Please help me open the cabin. I haven't slept all day and night. I'm getting old and my body can't bear it anymore. I have to go back first."

"Okay, I'll take the boat and take a look." Father Ye responded as he took the key.

No matter how small a mosquito leg is, it's still meat, and it's just a few pieces. It's a shameful waste.

After handing over the work to his father, Ye Yaodong slowly walked home with his father.

The groceries in the open space had just been collected by the tractor in two trips. Lin Xiuqing had arranged for these goods. When his mother got off work later, his mother would also arrange them, so he didn't need to worry.

As for the baskets that had just been emptied out, they were also brought to the workshop, along with Father Pei's empty baskets. The two of them walked slowly to the workshop first.

Ye Yaodong also told his younger brother to send the basket marked with the word "Pei" to Father Pei later.

"This saves me a lot of trouble. I don't have to borrow a cart to push it back."

"People are invited here just to do work. They just bring a basket. It's not a big deal."

"You're looking more and more presentable now, but the place looks a little too small, and the goods can't be exposed, so they can only be exposed in the open space on the side. I'm afraid it's not safe at night."

"There is no way. Our seaside is already sparse. It is not easy to carve out such a large piece of open space. It is because it is too close to the seaside and no one wants it. In the past two years, more and more people have come here to build houses. Look at that Next to our house, there used to be a large open space, but now there are houses built on it."

"The feng shui is good. Everyone says the feng shui here is good. If my house wasn't big enough to live in and didn't even need to be built, I would have wanted to build a new house here."

"Feng shui is good. These are all rumors spread by everyone. As long as you make money, it means feng shui is good..."

"Then please send this basket to your two young boys here, and I will go back first."

"Okay, okay."

After Ye Yaodong left, he asked them, "Where's the fish that you just asked to carry back?"

"At home, I put it on the stove. The old lady was thinking about how to cook it at night. She said that she was old and might not be able to kill such a big fish, so she was gesticulating with a knife."

Ye Yaodong's eyes widened when he heard this. He didn't even bother to talk to Lin Xiuqing who was walking over, and hurried home.

Wang Guangliang watched him run away in a flash. Monk Zhang Er was confused as to why he ran so fast.

Lin Xiuqing ran away when she saw it, and wondered what happened? He also ran over.

"Why are A Dong running?"

"I do not know."

"Then you go and divide the goods that were just delivered first..."

"Brother Dong asked us to deliver the basket to Uncle Pei first."

"Oh, then you send him there first, leaving one person to watch over here. I'll go back and see why he's in such a hurry."

Isn't it in a hurry? That was a hairy fish. If the old lady killed the fish with one knife, how could he take pictures?

However, his worries were unnecessary. The old lady thought about it for a long time with a knife. She felt that the fish was too big to kill. She suddenly thought that Dongzi specially kept such a big fish back and did not sell it. She didn't know what use it was. I gave up first and planned to wait until he came back to ask.

Ye Yaodong came back out of breath and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw an intact fish.

"It scared me to death. I thought you had killed me."

"Why are you running so fast? Are you tired? Take a breath first and don't sit down. It's not good to sit down before you can catch your breath." The old lady said as she smoothed his chest, treating him as a child.

"I didn't kill the fish. I felt like I couldn't kill it because it was so big. You haven't come back yet. I didn't know what you were going to do with such a big fish or give it away, so I put down the knife again."

"I'm going to kill them and dry them with isinglass."

"Oh, isinglass. For such a big fish, the isinglass is quite big. One tael of gelatin for ten kilograms of fish. It may shrink a bit for such a big fish, but this one should weigh about one kilogram when exposed. This isinglass is worth a lot of money. Yes, it’s a good thing.”

"It's good that you know. I was worried that you would kill the fish, take out the belly and throw it away."

The old lady smiled and said: "How is it possible? The whole body of such a big fish is edible, how can it be possible to take out the belly and throw it away? Not only the isinglass, but also the fish liver is also a good thing and can be left for frying."

As long as he didn't kill him, he could still use it to take pictures!

"What kind of fish is this? It's half black and half white. With my old eyesight, I can't even tell what kind of fish it is."

"It's a hairy fish."

He told him again how the fish was struck by lightning.

"Ouch, it was struck by lightning? Then this fish must have grown too well. God couldn't stand it, so he stopped it from growing any more, so he sent down a lightning strike to strike it. Oh dear, this fish will definitely grow after eating it. I’ll make it up.”

Ye Yaodong couldn't help but laugh. The old man's thoughts were also very direct.

"What fish has a long body and can replenish its body?" Lin Xiuqing came in quickly when she heard this.

The old lady added what Ye Yaodong said just now and repeated it to her. Lin Xiuqing also widened her eyes and looked at the fish with curiosity.

She had never seen or heard of a fish that could be struck by lightning.

"I asked you why you came back early. The weather outside is so abnormal. Fortunately, you are back. It's so dangerous to be so close. This fish is so big, it should be sold for a lot of money, right? But it's rare to get a fish struck by lightning. You It’s okay to keep it back for a treat, we don’t lack the dozens of dollars now.”

Ye Yaodong grinned with his teeth bared and did not tell her how much the fish could be sold for, otherwise she would have to strangle him to death and wait until he killed the fish first.
