Chapter 142 Born
The three of them were talking as they rowed side by side and rowed the boat towards the pier.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines onto the sea level, reflecting a faint brilliance, which makes the smiles on the faces of the three people shine with golden light, and the satisfaction in their eyes almost overflows.
At this time, there were not many fishing boats on the sea level, and most of them were docked.
By the time they docked, the glow had already turned half the sky red, and large swathes of burning clouds had formed in the west, ranging from orange to orange, to purple to purple...
Ye Yaodong couldn't help but say: "The sunset today is quite beautiful!"
"really!"
"What a beautiful yarn. It's not like I haven't seen it before. Come on, sell your things and go home for dinner."
As Xiaoxiao talked, he carried two buckets and walked to the dock first. Ye Yaodong also followed with two buckets of fish.
Ah Zheng also quickly picked up the remaining fish, "Oh, wait for me..."
Ah Cai was surprised when he saw several barrels of fish they had, "We only went there one afternoon and there is so much stock? So many red fish, have you encountered a school of fish? You are very lucky, this fish is rare here."
He looked at Ye Yaodong's bucket again, "Didn't you go put the cage in the ground? Where did you get the fish? And the big mullet?"
Ah Cai was pleasantly surprised, but also a little regretful, "It's a pity, it's not as big as the previous one."
"Okay, we're all fishing. I happened to encounter two whales. They ran away when they saw the boats approaching. The fish that were driven away were all concentrated in that area. Unfortunately, I didn't bring a net, so I had to fish."
"Is it any wonder that the group of people who came back before you also caught a lot of fish? They poured them out and picked them out to see what they had?"
"There are quite a lot of red friend fish. Don't say I don't take care of you. I'll charge you 50 cents for this fish. As for the price of this water grain fish, it has dropped recently. The big one is 13 cents, the small one is 5 cents..."
Ah Cai muttered as he picked. The three of them looked at each other and realized that the price was reasonable. They were familiar with the prices of common fish purchases and sales. The red friend fish had exceeded their expectations, so they planned to just go with it.
Bar.
"Okay, that's it."
After their work was done, Ye Yaodong also sorted out his own goods, leaving behind a dozen red-headed fish and two black eagles that he wanted to take back to eat. He planned to sell the rest, which would be worth some money.
His father is going to sea at night, so he is not afraid that there will be no seafood to eat tomorrow.
"How much do you plan to get for this big mullet?"
"Go on the scale first and see the weight."
The scale turned out to be 27 kilograms and six taels. Ah Cai thought for a while and said, "The bigger the anchovy is, the more valuable it is. Yours is not as good as the previous ones. It can only produce more than 2 taels of isinglass, so let's calculate it as three yuan per kilogram."
"
Ye Yaodong frowned, it was a little lower than he expected, "Give it a little higher!"
"It's the best. We are all so familiar with each other. Can I deceive you? The last one you weighed more than 50 kilograms was sold for 500 yuan because it was big and rare. A piece of fish maw cost nearly six taels. Hong Wenle is also generous. This one weighs more than 20 yuan.
Although the weight is small, it is not on the market or unavailable.”
"Brother, I'm a real person. Don't say it's false. The price of fish will fluctuate. Three yuan is really not low. The wages of workers are only one and a half yuan a day. A pound of your fish is worth two days.
You have to earn a few cents for me, right? As fellow villagers, we are all talking about the real price..."
Xiaoxiao poked Ye Yaodong in the chest with his elbow, "Do you want to take it to Hongsheng or another restaurant yourself?"
"The price you sent me is basically the same. It can't fluctuate too much. I also earn a lot of hard money, or maybe others will lower the price. It's impossible for good things to happen every time."
Ah Zheng looked up and down at his fat body and said, "How hard are you working here to receive goods? You sit at the door with your legs crossed every day. When the ship comes back, all you have to do is use your mouth and make connections."
"Then you come?"
"Forget it, I can't do it... Bah... I don't want to do it! I'm very good at it."
Ah Cai ignored him and continued to say to Ye Yaodong: "Anyway, this is the price, you see, I will weigh the other goods first."
"Forget it, forget it, I'll trust you once." It was almost dark, and he didn't want to bother. Originally, the goods were always collected by him, and he was the middleman who introduced the buyers. Suddenly, something like this happened.
It doesn't look good.
Ah Cai smiled happily and said, "It will save you trouble if I buy you."
He cried tears of sympathy to himself in his heart. It was not easy to make some money. To be honest, no one believed him.
After all the goods were weighed one by one, Ye Yaodong took the goods list, looked at the weight and amount, and put it in his arms after checking that it was OK.
Today's harvest was good. It was just a last-minute idea to bring a fishing rod to catch a few fish for dinner at night. I didn't expect that I could make an unexpected fortune.
I just worked hard for a while in the afternoon and earned a few dozen yuan, which made up for the gap during the week and made my family richer.
Both of them looked at Ye Yaodong with envy, "I said you must be selling more than us. The sum of the products from our two websites is not worth your fish."
"lucky."
Maybe he still had twenty or thirty years of good life in his previous life, and the King of Hell had hooked up with the wrong person and returned him to the underworld to make up for it?
He kept thinking like this for three days, convincing himself.
"Your harvest is also very good. Let's go. It's time to go home for dinner."
The three of them walked briskly each carrying a bucket and walked home. By now, smoke was rising from the chimneys of every house.
When Ye Yaodong returned home with the bucket, the whole family was waiting for him to start eating.
Mother Ye just came back when she saw him, and couldn't help but mutter: "Why did you come back? You can put a cage on the ground and put it there now. The whole family is waiting for you to eat."
"I caught a few fish by the way. Do you have any tofu at home? How about a bowl of red-headed fish soup?"
"Where did you get the tofu you ordered? There will be a cart selling vegetables only tomorrow morning. I'll save it for tomorrow."
"While it's fresh now, let's cook a few fish first and cook them directly. I haven't eaten fresh fish for many days. By the way, I'll kill the two black eagles and steam them too!"
"There are so many things to do. We have already cooked the dishes and still need to cook them." Mother Ye muttered, but she still lifted the bucket to the back door to kill the fish. Indeed, no one had eaten fresh fish for several days.
People on the seaside can live without vegetables on their dinner tables, but they cannot live without fish.
Taking advantage of this time, he went back to the house and handed the order to his wife.
"What is it?" Lin Xiuqing took the order without knowing why, and she was pleasantly surprised after just one glance.
"Why is there an order? Didn't you go to put the net in?"
"I went fishing again by the way, thinking of catching a few fish for dinner in the evening, but I didn't expect to be lucky."
She happily looked at it twice more before putting away the list, "Your broken fishing rod, my mother always said that she was going to burn it because she ran out of firewood, but luckily she didn't burn it."
He raised his eyebrows and said, "My things are all treasures. You can't be like my mother and want to throw away everything."
"knew."
Seeing the bright smile on her face, he couldn't help but ask, "What are you talking about? Haven't you come yet?"
After avoiding the topic for a week, he still couldn't help but ask, this child is not something else. He can't always pretend that nothing happened, right?
What needs to be decided must be decided.
"Ah? Oh...he's not here," she lowered her voice, "she must be pregnant."
"Then...give birth?"
She said hesitantly: "Let's give birth. You can't be so cruel as to say no and just don't want it?"
"Okay, then let's be more careful. In a few months, you should go out less often and don't go anywhere. It just so happens that our new home is over there on the beach and there aren't many people around."
He has been thinking about it these days. It would be the best if she could be born safely. At worst, he would accompany her to the mountains to hide for a few days. With him watching by his side, she would definitely not die after a fall like he did in his previous life.
.
When he is born, he will be punished as much as he deserves. He just has to work hard to earn money.
"Well, I can't tell if it's fine now. When the weather gets colder in July, wearing a looser cotton-padded jacket should be able to cover it up. As for next spring, we can only wait and see what happens next year."
Ye Yaodong touched her flat belly, "It's so good to be pregnant~ I'm so good at riding horses..."
Lin Xiuqing slapped his hand away and said angrily: "You have the nerve to say what you are so proud of."
"Why are you so embarrassed to say it? What couple doesn't do anything?"
Ye Yaodong took her into his arms, buried his head in the crook of her neck, and took a deep breath of her body fragrance mixed with the faint scent of soap.
I hope this life will be different.
"It's so itchy. Stop making trouble. We're going to eat soon. Don't let your son see you again."
Ye Yaodong raised his head and saw that the skin on her neck had goosebumps and was a little pink.
Every time he turned off the lights and went about his business, he never looked carefully.
Lin Xiuqing saw him staring at her neck eagerly, so she slapped him in embarrassment, "Why are you looking like this? You went out to eat."
"Um."
