After entering the twelfth lunar month, Mother Ye had already watched all the good days of this month in advance, wrote them down, and told them that the country people like to watch the good days before doing anything.
There are days on the sixth and ninth day of the first month, so I decided to send the New Year to the sixth day tomorrow.
Even during the New Year’s Eve cleaning, they have to watch a good day to clean the house and yard.
When Ah Qing went to the market yesterday, he had already prepared everything in advance, and he also ordered a pig's trotter from Fatty's father-in-law, but the plan couldn't keep up with the change.
In the morning, they found that the sea was calm and there was a faint red light in the sky.
Obviously it has been windy for ten days, but I didn’t expect it to clear up today.
The neighbors next door also said there, if there is no storm at night, they should go out to sea and release the net.
Ye Yaodong was also pondering over there, it's a cold day, and he doesn't know when the wind will blow up.
He would trawl the net first at night to see if there is any goods, he would continue to trawl the net.
This is the sticky net. If you put it down today, you will have to let it go for a day. It will take a while to collect it tomorrow morning. I don’t know if there will be weather tomorrow? Trawling is a little more convenient.
As for the fact that tomorrow is too late to send off the new year, it is not a big problem. There are still three days to go, and the ninth day of the lunar new year is also a good day to go out.
It’s not the first year anyway, so it’s okay to be late, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law will definitely say that making money is important.
Lin Xiuqing also thinks so, "If the weather is good in the future, I can go back to see the New Year by myself. Go early and come back late, and the child will let the elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law take a look."
"Let's take a look first, don't be in a hurry, I will return the pig's feet later, and I will buy it in two days. I will go to haul a net at night. If there are good products, I can keep some fresh ones and bring them over."
She nodded with a smile.
"I'm going out for a walk."
At this time, several brothers from Zhou Jialan's family next door also came over and asked him if they still want to collect dried fish.
Of course Ye Yaodong wants it, the dried fish he has now is only enough for another trip, and if he doesn’t go out to sea, he plans to go to the city to buy a few thousand catties after giving it to the old man’s house, and transport it back to dry, otherwise he will have to I broke my promise.
They also had no idea. After all, they hadn’t gone to sea for ten days recently, and they didn’t know if he wanted to, so they had to ask in advance.
After having an affirmative answer, they were relieved.
Ye Yaodong also told Lin Xiuqing that if someone came to ask, he would give an affirmative reply, and he planned to go outside the pier and check the boat by the way.
I haven’t gone to sea for many days. If I go to sea at night, I must make preparations in advance. It’s easy to get into trouble when I’m cramming.
There was no one outside the pier at this time, only when the ship was out to sea, the pier would be crowded with people.
However, not long after he came out, some scattered people also came out to watch the ebb and flow of the tide, so make sure what time it is suitable to go out at night.
After Ye Yaodong checked that the boat was fine, he planned to go ashore and go back, but he saw several women coming out with baskets.
They chatted while walking, and after listening to them, he realized that they were going to dig a little moss on the stone rock wall outside the corner to cook soup while the tide was low.
It is the green hair growing on the stone wall. They are also called Haiqing in the local area. The sea water is still very clean these days, without pollution. The moss growing is still green and clean, and it is edible seaweed.
Sea vegetables grow for a long time, from winter to early summer, but they usually grow in the sea in winter, and there are fewer stones on the shore.
This is not a rare thing. Few people are willing to wade into the cold sea to pick it up. At most, when they see it on the shore, they can grab a few and go back to cook egg soup, pimple soup, or cold salad.
It is still tender in winter and spring, but after May Day, it grows older, and no one in their locality wants to eat it.
Looking at the woman who went to the rocks on the shore to pick up Haiqing, he thought for a while, and it was almost noon, so he simply went to grab a couple of them and went back to make an egg Haiqing soup.
Relying on the sea to eat the sea, he can eat whatever he has. Recently, he is getting tired of eating radish soup and potato pickle soup every day.
People who have never seen seaweed may not be able to imagine what it looks like. It is closer to seaweed, finer than seaweed, like hair strands, but green.
Ye Yaodong looked at the rocks, which seemed to be quite long. No wonder someone came to pick them. These women really know what to eat on the beach.
Otherwise, it was too short in the past, and it was very cold, but no one came out to blow the sea breeze to pick this.
He tugged hard several times, and only stopped after he felt a ball in his palm.
People who have never eaten it may not like it very much. This sea green has a fishy smell, not a fishy smell, but a grassy smell. They are used to eating it locally.
When I had nothing to eat before, where could I choose? It's good to eat something.
Ye Yaodong hasn’t eaten it for many years, and he misses the taste a little bit.
Many things are often not very delicious, but I miss them very much when I see them occasionally, because what I eat is a memory and feeling, such as maltose.
The woman next to him saw him picking sea greens, so she whispered there, talking about his recent big move in collecting dried fish in the village, as well as shops and so on.
Ye Yaodong pretended he didn’t hear anything, automatically ignored it, and went ashore directly to go home. Anyway, he knew that he was already a celebrity in the village.
Lin Xiuqing was cooking. Seeing him go to a pier, she brought back a handful of Haiqing, and hurriedly said, "You fished it? I've already made carrot soup. What are you going to do with this Haiqing?"
"It's radish soup again, let's cook it at night, and make sea green egg soup."
"Eat radish in winter and **** in summer, all the radishes are grown in the field, if you don't eat radish soup, what kind of soup do you eat?"
"Okay, let's change the taste at night. When I just came back, I saw a few old aunts picking this, so I grabbed a handful and brought it back. Do you want to grab a basket and take it back to your parents in two days? ah?"
Lin Xiuqing said amusedly: "Why do you take it back? It's not that you haven't eaten, and you have to move everything to your mother's house. It's going to be a joke."
"What a joke, I'm not thinking that they shouldn't have eaten this sea vegetable by our seaside."
"I'm not used to it, and I wasn't used to it at first. It smells like grass."
"Fine."
"Is the boat fully fueled?"
"No, I just checked it and bought another barrel to take with me when I boarded the boat at night."
"oh."
She stir-fried the dried dragon head fish in the pot a few more times before putting it out, "Or take a handful of fried eggs? You can boil it twice for such a ball."
"Alright, you can figure it out yourself."
Ye Yaodong took the plate in her hand, not afraid of being hot, he reached out and ate a piece of dried dragon head fish.
"I just came back from work and ate without washing my hands. Is it dirty?"
"It's enough to be cleaner than the two sons. The sleeves are either hard snot or dirt."
"You are an adult, and they are children, so I am ashamed to compare with them."
"Well, sorry."
"Ahhhhh..." Ye Xiaoxi stood in the cage beside him, watching his father stealing food, he also grabbed the bamboo piece on top, staggered to his feet, and yelled ahhh, drooling .
Ye Yaodong looked funny, "Why are you so greedy?"
The old lady held a bowl of steamed eggs in her hand and blew there, and said with a smile: "It's too late to eat, and she started barking as soon as it came out of the pot."
"Put some cold water in a large bowl, put the custard on it, and let it cool down faster."
"I'm afraid that it will be cold after eating, just blow on it."
"Ahhh~"
"Daddy, your name is Daddy~"
"Ah~ ah ah ah ah ah ~ ah ah ~"
Standing for too long, maybe his legs and feet have no strength, Ye Xiaoxi just sat down and sat down again, and made an oops sound, which sounds cute.
Ye Yaodong's old father's heart was about to melt, and his face was full of smiles.
"My daughter is still cute!"
"Well, it doesn't matter if the son fights casually, but the daughter is cute no matter how she looks at it." Lin Xiuqing turned her head and joked.
"Well, that's the way it is, boys don't need to worry about it."
