Chapter 372 Find another place to fish

"How do you know?"
"I know a lot more. Eat it quickly. It tastes good when dipped in soup. It tastes no worse than Xiaoqinglong."
Ye Yaodong peeled off one, handed it directly to her mouth, and said: "Have the three coconut snails in the bucket been opened? There is also a wolf-tooth eel, kill it for me later, and make wine for you at night."
Lin Xiuqing looked at the meat close at hand and directly opened her mouth to take it in.
"I said, why does the eel in the bucket look so fierce? I almost got bitten when I was getting the shrimp steaks. Just sell them to make money. I have a lot of milk and my milk is increasing every day. What else do I need to produce?"
"
"I plan to store those three coconut snails and wait for them to be cooked tomorrow. Today's dishes are enough. The weather is hot now. If the snail meat is left to be fried tomorrow, it won't be fresh. Should I just store it and cook it tomorrow?"
Ye Yaodong nodded. It was impossible for all coconut snails to be able to produce Merlot. One of them was already lucky, so he was not in a hurry.
"Eat more milk. The child is still young and eats less. As he gets older, he will eat more. How about this meat and scallion oil? Is it delicious?"
"Yeah, just like lobster."
Ye Chenghu looked at his father and then at his mother. He bit his chopsticks and said eagerly: "I want to eat too. Dad, peel one off for me."
"What are you peeling? You are six years old, and you have to peel something to eat? This one has been cut in half and opened. You can just dig it out and it will come out. Don't you know how to do it? You have to be taught how to eat it, so why should you eat it?"
?”
Ye Chenghu's eyes widened, "My mother stripped me off and put it in her mouth."
"Your mother is your mother. Hurry up and eat. It's been a long time and a bowl of rice is still good. What are you still looking at? Who are you counting on? Do you want me to help you eat the rice too?"
Ye Chenghu pursed his lips, resigned himself to his fate, took one and peeled it off, dug it out from the opening with chopsticks, bit it with his mouth, and the whole meat came out.
"Isn't this possible?"
After Lin Xiuqing took out the crabs from the pot, she took off her apron and sat down. She also peeled one for her youngest son and said with a smile: "This meat is quite delicious. Eat it quickly."
Ye Chenghu's mouth was so full that he could have eaten pork, "Skin it for Yangyang, but not for me."
"How old are you and how old is he? I can't even stop your mouth from eating. You're so long-winded. Eat quickly."
Ye Chenghu hummed and continued to eat.
Ye Yaodong took a crab and peeled it open. When he saw the red paste inside, he handed it to Lin Xiuqing and said casually, "Didn't I tell you to use it to fry spicy crabs..."
"Don't be nagging, it's good to eat some. My cooking skills are limited. If you want to eat, you can cook it yourself next time. It will be troublesome to eat the shell."
Seafood is easy to cook, just fish it out in water, or steam it and dip it in soy sauce and vinegar. But it is troublesome to eat. It takes a long time to peel the shelled ones, and the meat doesn't have much meat.
"It's good to have something to eat, but is it too troublesome? How many people used to have no food and would run to the beach just to get a bite to eat. I heard that my grandfather still came here begging for food."
"Yeah... I know, I know that your ancestors have been poor farmers for eight lifetimes and you are glorious. You can eat it quickly."
Ye Yaodong felt that her attitude was a bit perfunctory and raised his eyebrows, "Huh? Comrade Lin Xiuqing, your attitude is not good...my grandfather is also your grandfather...well..."
Lin Xiuqing had just peeled off a shrimp steak. She was originally going to give it to her eldest son, which saved him from groaning. When she heard Ye Yaodong's nagging, she stuffed it directly into his mouth.
"Eat yours! Aren't you tired from going to sea? Why are you talking so much nonsense? You're still blabbering. Hurry up and go to bed."
"It's rare that I'm in a good mood today. I wanted to say a few more words, but you treated me like this."
"Did you find the money?"
"That's pretty much it. I also played tricks on the troublemaker."
The abalone and sea cucumbers Xiaoxiao and Azheng dug out of the water were sold for nearly 80 yuan, and he got more than 20 yuan for one-third of them.
"Are there so many things going on at sea during this time?"
"It's nothing, it's not a big deal." He briefly told what happened at sea when he came back.
"Why is it still lingering? Then change your location tomorrow and don't go there."
"I know it well..."
Suddenly, a baby cried, and Lin Xiu put down her chopsticks as soon as she finished half of her meal.
"I'll hug you, I'll hug you, you eat your food." Ye Yaodong reacted faster than her.
He hadn't seen the child for a day, and he was still thinking strangely.
He stopped crying as soon as he hugged her, and he felt a little happy.
Lin Xiuqing followed in, "Are you tired or hungry?"
"No, my butt is not wet...ah..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he said that his buttocks were not wet, and then his big palms became wet.
"Let me do it, you go wash your hands and eat!" Lin Xiuqing took the child from his hand.
"This guy really doesn't go out. He gave me a big gift as soon as he came back."
"It's good that I didn't give you gold."
"yue~"
At around two o'clock in the morning, as soon as Ye Yaodong sailed away from the shore, his father started burning talismans again.
He said helplessly: "Why did you start burning this again?"
"What do you know? You were lucky yesterday. What if you run into it again? Go around three times to remove the bad luck to keep yourself safe and increase your luck. You will gain a lot today."
Ye Yaodong stood there obediently, letting his father do what he wanted, "It's hard to talk about luck."
"It's hard to say, but it will be better if you burn two. Like your Uncle Lin, I heard that the oars were broken as soon as I went to sea a few days ago, and the fishing nets were broken again the next day, and the fishing nets were broken again on the third day.
It broke again and everything went wrong. On the fourth day, I burned a few talismans and everything went smoothly."
"Ah? Then he was delayed for three days and lost a lot."
"Isn't that right? I only heard about it in the evening. Sometimes luck is hard to say. You have to believe it."
He nodded. The old man knew better. He lost this inheritance in his previous life. No one taught him or told him this.
Although I have heard some mysterious things from others, who knows whether they are true or false? Or are they just made up and exaggerated?
After burning the talisman in his hand into ashes and floating to the sea, Father Ye walked towards Ye Yaodong and said, "I'll open it, you go hang the bait."
When Ye Yaodong saw the three big baskets full of fish, he sighed inwardly and rolled up his sleeves resignedly. Longline fishing is quite troublesome. You have to organize the fishing lines and hang so many baits.
Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua always stayed in the same place to fish, which was the sea area where their father often went when he took them out to sea. After all, they were familiar with the surrounding area.
In addition, offshore fishing areas are gradually formed. Wherever everyone often fishes, that place is almost their "responsibility field", and a tacit understanding is gradually formed.
It was still dark when Ye Yaodong arrived, and there were two small round lights flashing in the surrounding sea. He didn't know whose boat it was, and whether his eldest and second brothers were among them.
When he set out before, he had already seen that his eldest and second brother's carts were gone at the door.
They make money much more diligently than he does.
After his father drove the boat around for a full circle in the surrounding waters, checking to see if anyone was setting a net nearby, he slowed down the speed and began to release the hook.
When the sun hung in the sky, it was almost noon, and after they had hauled two nets, they saw the boats of Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua. They were also setting up nets, and the two boats were not far away.
Ye Yaodong picked up the simple red flag on the boat and waved it towards them before sailing towards them.
Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua also just discovered them.
"Dad? Uh... Dongzi?"
Ye Yaopeng called out uncertainly, and then looked at the logo on the boat, and his father was also nearby, and then he was sure that it was his brother.
Ye Yaodong's head is really wrapped up tightly. How can he recognize it? I don't know why it is wrapped up like this. Can it be seen?
"Why are you here today?"
Ye Yaodong said casually, "Try your luck at a different point. Did you drag two nets?"
"Yes, once this net is picked up, we are going to collect the squid. So if you come here today, aren't you going to collect the squid from the sea?"
"No more fishing. Yesterday there wasn't much. I only caught a hundred catties in one afternoon. There will definitely be less today. I plan to trawl the net."
"It's okay, we just hauled two nets, and they were quite good, including a lot of mackerel and black mullet."
"Then you go about your business."
Father Ye also warned, "If there are less squid today, go trawl the net and don't waste time."
"We know it, and that's what we planned."
"Then it's up to you."
After saying hello, they went about their business, since they were all in the same sea area anyway.
After Ye Yaodong put down the fishing net, he went to pick out the goods he had dragged up earlier. In addition to mackerel and black mullet, which contained the most, there were also about ten kilograms of squid, and other miscellaneous fish, shrimps and crabs.
There were actually quite a lot of fish caught in the spring. After a whole winter of repairs, the fish became more active, but the rain delayed things.
He picked out all the squid individually. During this period, he ate squid every two days. They had eaten enough. He planned to save some small ones for drying squid. The first net had also dragged seven or eight kilograms.
, put them all together first.
Anyway, we caught a lot during this period, so it doesn’t matter if we leave a little to dry out.
After drying the cuttlefish, it is easy to store. The rainy season and typhoon season will come soon, and I haven’t been out to sea for a few days, so I don’t have to worry about not having seafood to eat.
After he finished picking, he was free again, holding his chin and looking at the sea, feeling a little bored.
At this time, there happened to be a fish jumping out of the water in the distance. He just glanced at it and didn't care. The fishing boat also kept moving forward slowly, leaving it directly behind him.
But after a while, he saw fish jumping out of the water one after another on the sea. They looked quite big, and he suddenly couldn't sit still. Wasn't this obviously tempting him?
To him, big fish are much more attractive than women.
But the trawling operation was still going on at this moment. After thinking about it for a while, he went to search in the cabin again, but he only found a fishing line with a fishhook.
He casually took a small wooden stick and rolled the fishing line around the small wooden stick. "I can barely fish with such a primitive hand line."
It's all his father's fault. He broke his fishing rod while fishing. He asked to make a new one for him, but he didn't do it. The old man didn't keep his word.
He muttered and walked out with the coiled fishing line and hook. He saw fish jumping out of the water from time to time. Fortunately, he had dragged some small miscellaneous fish in the trawl before. The shrimps can be used as bait, so he can bring them with him at night.
All the fishing bait out to sea has been used up.
But when he took a small fish as long as his middle finger and hung it as bait, the sea suddenly boiled.
He opened his mouth in surprise, and Father Ye's boat also stopped.
