397. Chapter 392 Daughters Are Better
Listening to Zhang Defa's description.
Li Duoyu knew that "blue tears" were coming.
In this era, there is no such thing as "blue tears". It seems that the term "blue tears" was deliberately beautified for tourism in the previous life.
Because blue tears often erupt on the eve of the Ghost Festival, many old fishermen call them "ghost fires on the sea".
They think that the "good brothers" have returned.
In addition, when blue tears erupt, they will cause the death of fish and shellfish, and the catch will also be significantly reduced.
Old fishermen believe that the "good brothers" have eaten the souls of those fish and shellfish.
So if blue tears erupt.
Fishermen will not go out to sea at night.
And when it gets dark, parents will call all their children back and not let them play outside.
Li Duoyu, who has lived two lives, naturally knows what "blue tears" are.
Speaking of which, Li Duoyu really has to thank short videos. If there were no short videos, he might not know what blue tears are.
In fact, blue tears are mainly caused by two luminous marine plankton, "Historical Firefly" and "Noctilucent Algae".
"His bent-throated sea firefly" is a kind of ostracod, which is very small and cannot be seen by the naked eye. They mainly live in shallow sea areas.
If there is blue light only near the beach and not in other places, it is likely that it is the "blue tears" caused by sea fireflies.
The blue tears caused by sea fireflies are generally harmless, and farmers generally don't have to worry about it.
What really scares farmers is the blue tears that are very bright when the boat passes by.
This kind of blue tears is often caused by "Noctiluca", a marine dinoflagellate that emits blue light once stimulated.
But the real harm is not Noctiluca, it is just a signal before the outbreak of red tide.
The appearance of Noctiluca often means that there is a problem with the water body and the algae have begun to reproduce in large numbers.
If the algae reproduce in large numbers, it will cause red tide, which will harm fish and shellfish.
For farmers like Li Duoyu.
It is not terrible when the red tide just breaks out.
What is really terrible is when the algae die in large numbers after the red tide breaks out.
Because after the algae die, during the decomposition process, a large amount of dissolved oxygen in the water will be consumed, directly leading to the death of fish and other marine life due to lack of oxygen.
It will also release a large amount of toxins, polluting the marine environment. In serious cases, the seawater feels sticky to the touch and smells very fishy.
Just now, when I heard that someone had diarrhea after eating shellfish, Li Duoyu already knew that there were already a lot of harmful algae in the seawater.
However, Li Duoyu was not panicked.
Even if the red tide caused a large number of his oysters to die, he could accept it.
Going out to sea to fish is a gift from God.
And people like them who engage in aquaculture are snatching food from God, so the risks are naturally great.
It is normal to have losses and wins.
There is no business that makes a lot of money, and there is no aquaculture without problems.
Li Duoyu asked Zhang Defa: "How did you do in the exam? It's August now, the results should be out."
Zhang Defa sighed:
"Other subjects are fine, but I didn't do well in foreign language."
Li Duoyu frowned and said: "Didn't you pass?"
Zhang Defa sighed: "It's not that I didn't pass, but the score I got is not very ideal."
Li Duoyu frowned and said: "Why are you so hesitant? Just tell me how many points you got and which school you went to."
Zhang Defa sighed: "More than 500. You couldn't get into your sister's medical school, so you only applied for Rongcheng Medical College."
Li Duoyu was surprised and said: "More than 500 is quite high. Besides, our Rongcheng Medical College is also a very good school. I thought you only got more than 200."
Zhang Defa said disdainfully:
"Don't compare yourself with me."
Those who study medicine know very well that only the best schools can provide good doctors and high-end equipment.
Rongcheng Medical College is good, but compared with the school Xiaorong attends, there is still a big gap.
Zhang Defa said: "By the way, I have been away for so long, haven't other doctors come to our island?" "Now there is a shortage of doctors. There are not enough doctors in the health center. Where can doctors come to our island?"
Zhang Defa frowned and thought for a while: "If I am really admitted to Rongcheng Medical College, I will come back to help during the holidays."
As a village director, Li Duoyu naturally hopes that Zhang Defa will come back often to help see patients.
But this is not good. After Zhang Defa graduates in the future, he will definitely stay in Rongcheng as a doctor. Dandan Island still needs to find a doctor who lives on the island.
Li Duoyu snorted:
"Don't think you are so important. When our village's economy develops, maybe all the doctors will rush to come to our village. By then, if you want to come back, I'm afraid there will be no place for you."
Zhang Defa was stunned for a moment, and then smiled awkwardly. He felt that what Li Duoyu said was really possible.
"Our village has changed a lot this year."
Li Duoyu said: "You just realized it. When you graduate from college, our village may be full of millionaires, and every household will build a luxury house. By then, you will know that you are on the wrong track."
Zhang Defa pursed his lips: "No matter how rich you are, what's the use? If you are sick, you have to see a doctor like us."
"That makes sense." Li Duoyu nodded and said: "By the way, Defa, I am really sick recently, please help me."
Zhang Defa asked doubtfully: "You look good, you don't look sick."
Li Duoyu said seriously: "These days, my blood is surging and my lower abdomen is restless. I wake up every day like the sun is shining. I feel like I have a powerful force. I have sex for two or three hours and I don't feel tired at all."
After hearing what Li Duoyu said, Zhang De, who was still single, had a dark face and took out a large syringe on the spot:
"Director Li, you are really sick. Come and take off your pants, and I will give you an anti-sex injection."
After seeing the big needle, Li Duoyu ran away: "Damn it, that needle of yours was used to kill pigs."
Zhang Defa squinted his eyes.
"It's just right to hit you pig."
Li Duoyu waved his hand.
"Let's go. Come to the village committee to make tea with me when you have time. It's a pity that you studied medicine. If you studied breeding, maybe I would be your teacher."
Zhang Defa frowned, not understanding what Li Duoyu was talking about.
…
When Li Duoyu returned home, Aniang had already prepared the meal.
Since summer is relatively hot and there are a few more mouths, Aniang directly set up an Eight Immortals table and ate in the courtyard.
Xiaoying took Tutu to play in the courtyard, and her sister Li Shuihua, who had just given birth, came out to enjoy the cool air with her third child in her arms.
The eldest Zhang Lin and the second eldest Zhang Yun helped serve the dishes. When the two girls saw Li Duoyu, they said sweetly: "Third uncle, okay."
Li Duoyu touched their heads: "Are the people living on the island still used to it?"
The two little girls nodded and said, "It's much better than our village. No one dares to bully us here."
Li Haoran on the side sighed and murmured: "Your uncle is the village director, and your aunt is the school head teacher. Who dares to bully you, thank God if you don't bully others."
When the food was put on the table, Lao Li and his brother-in-law just came back carrying dustpans.
After seeing the two people coming back, the eldest and the second immediately stepped forward to help pack their things.
"Grandpa, are you thirsty? Do you want some tea?"
"Are your shoulders sore? Do you want me to give you a rub on your back?"
"no, I'm fine."
"These dustpans are full of dirt and very dirty. Don't touch them. Wash your hands and go eat."
Lao Li is very happy when he sees these granddaughters these days. He always had a straight face in the past, but since the arrival of these two granddaughters, his face has obviously become more smiley.
Li Haoran, who had fallen out of favor a little bit, said flatly: "Two sycophants."
Li Duoyu, who had been paying attention to Little Fatty for a long time, walked over and touched his head.
"Haoran, you are the oldest of the new generation. You have to take good care of these younger brothers and sisters, you know?"
Seeing his uncle talking to him, Li Haoran nodded happily: "Uncle, that's for sure. As long as I'm here, no one in our village will dare to bully them."
Li Duoyu looked at these nieces and liked them very much, and couldn't help but sigh: "It would be better to have a daughter."
Li Haoran on the side heard it.
He stood there for several seconds. (End of chapter)
