Chapter 58 Drenched and Going Home
Lin Xiuqing covered his face with five fingers, and pushed him away. This shameless person, who was serious for a while, lost his shape again.
Ye Yaodong grabbed her wrist, frowned and said, "You broke your hand too?"
She withdrew her hand, "Well, it's okay, it's just a little bit of skin."
"Then go back and wash it, don't look for it, it will hurt even more when you touch the sea water."
"It's okay, I don't hurt, it's still early, the tide has just receded, there must be something to pick up, I just don't touch the sea water, if I find anything, I'll call you, isn't that what I did before?"
"Don't be brave..."
"Oh, what's the matter, it's just a fall, keep searching," she continued to search seriously without paying attention, and stopped after walking a few steps, "Move this stone, I saw a blue stone The legs of the crab should be orchid crabs."
She was in high spirits, Ye Yaodong had no choice but to let her go.
The two started wandering around the reef area again. At this time, a few drops of bean-big rain fell. Just as they were about to go back, they suddenly disappeared again. The two had no choice but to continue searching.
It wasn't until another two hours later that Ye Yaodong said: Ye Yaodong "Okay, it's almost noon, let's go back."
"Stop looking for a while longer?" Lin Xiuqing said reluctantly.
Ye Yaodong chuckled, "Why, are you addicted to Taohaitao?"
"Yeah, a little bit, I feel that today's shopping is too easy, and I have gained so much in just one morning. In the past, there were so many things to pick up during the tide of the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year."
"The first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year is actually very good. It's just that people in our beach village have visited too many times every day, so it seems that there are fewer seafood, and there are many on the isolated island. Okay, let's go home. I'm getting hungry, and the sky is getting cloudy again."
"Okay, then let's wait until the tide is low tomorrow."
"Hehe~" He was really addicted, he shook his head with a smile, "Look at how our sea area will be affected by the typhoon tomorrow, if the typhoon is strong, the tide will definitely not recede tomorrow, and it will rise sharply, and it will be very Heavy rainfall is possible."
"That's right, forget it, let's come again when the tide ebbs and there is no rain."
"Um."
They also harvested quite a lot this morning. They harvested eight blue crabs alone, big and small, and even more stone crabs. There were also three blue flower crabs, which were also quite hard and worth a little money. More than a dozen Shijiugongs, conger eels, golden pomfrets, plum boy fish, spring fish, other small fish and shrimps, the most are clams...
It is estimated that it can be poured out of a sack and can hold a large bucket!
Of course, the most special thing is the merlot bead, but this needs to be covered first. The perch talc grouper in the bucket is very good.
Ye Yaodong held a bucket in one hand and a sack in the other, while Lin Xiuqing followed him with a happy face, and the two walked home briskly.
Unexpectedly, they had finished their work, and just halfway there, the pouring rain began to pour down, and the two had no choice but to rush home quickly despite the rain.
When they got home, the two of them were already drowned, but they didn't care to take a bath and change clothes first, but took a super large basin and poured out the contents of the sack first.
When Ye Mu saw that the couple were like drowned chickens, she couldn't help saying a few words: "Where are you two coming back? You are still running around during the typhoon..."
Sister-in-law Ye said pleasantly: "Ah~ you have gone to the sea? You dare to go even in a typhoon, how brave you are!"
Second Aunt Ye also put down her hands and came back to life, "It's quite a lot... huh? A lot of blue crabs..."
A bunch of children in the family also gathered around, and the couple's eldest son, Ye Chenghu, yelled at the side: "You go to the beach to play, and don't take us!"
"You can all go, why can't I? Hmph!"
"Because the sea monster only accepts boys and girls! Are you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid!"
"Brat!"
After Ye Yaodong laughed and cursed, he ignored him and asked his mother, "Where's my father? We caught a perch talc grouper, let him look at it and see how much it's worth!"
"Huh?" Mother Ye noticed that there was a bucket at her feet. It was really a grouper, but Mother Ye didn't recognize the species.
For this kind of fish, the men in the family are more knowledgeable and understand.
"He's lying in the house, I'll call him."
Sister-in-law Ye and second-sister-in-law Ye have already started to help sort. They said enviously, "You have harvested a lot. I didn't expect that there would be so many things to pick up in typhoon days."
"Yes, some of these blue crabs are very big and hard, and these few crabs alone can sell for several dollars."
"That grouper must be more expensive!"
"I saw you rushing back to get a bucket and ran away, but you didn't respond to the question later. It turned out that you wanted to get the grouper in the bucket. You are too mean, and you didn't even call us..."
Lin Xiuqing was a little embarrassed by what Ye Ersao said. She didn't mean it, but she was impatient, so she took it and ran away.
"I was just in a hurry. I was afraid that the fish would die, so I didn't think too much about it for a while." Then he slapped a few little hands, "Don't be naughty, you will be bitten by a crab soon, don't cry!"
Suddenly, the moray eel in the bucket swung its tail and hit the washbasin, scaring the children back quickly!
"Ah~ that fish is so fierce!"
Ye Yaodong waved his hand and hurriedly drove them away, "Go, go, go to the side and play, don't get in the way here!"
"Slightly slightly slightly~" A few kids grimaced, and when the rain stopped, they ran outside to play again.
Ye’s father was also called out by Ye’s mother to look at the squid in the bucket, and opened his mouth in surprise, “Where did you find it? We also have this kind of grouper here?”
The third son has been lucky recently? He also found such a rare fish, which is much more expensive than tiger spot, which is just a common species among groupers.
"I found it in the rocky area near Dongqiao Village. I just went to the beach to see how big the waves were, but I saw that the tide was receding, so I went down for a walk. The waves on the beach were higher and higher. , It is estimated that it was swept in by the waves."
"possible."
This perch talc grouper usually lives in the waters of the bay. Considering that they are very close to the islands on the other side of the bay, it makes sense for this fish to be swept in by waves.
"This one is more expensive than the tiger spot, how much it can sell for, I have to ask Yi Cai." Father Ye looked at the big washbasin on the ground again, "Pick up these too, and pick out the ones that can sell for money and take them together. Ah Cai’s family, keep the worthless ones for yourself.”
"I don't know if the typhoon will accept the goods?"
"Accepted, his family can use oxygen, and it won't die if he raises it. It's the same when he resells it after the typhoon passes."
"Um."
If it weren’t for the typhoon, there are no passing cars, it’s inconvenient to travel, and his family can’t get oxygen to support him. He would like to go to the hotel in the town with a bucket to ask if they accept it, so as not to get paid.
