Sister-in-law Ye also frowned, "It's simply not a human being, and now it's not allowed to have more children. It's so distressing that this child is gone."
"That is to say, the previous generation gave birth to eight or nine dozen children, and those who could not support one or two would feel distressed, so it didn't matter if they were cruel. Fortunately, no children were lost in our village."
"I almost lost it. Fortunately, during the Chinese New Year, everyone in our village paid close attention to it. When the peddler came into the village, everyone stared at it from beginning to end..."
"I heard that our village was commended for its meritorious service in catching traffickers. They said that there will be rewards..."
The topic changed immediately, and they didn't bother about asking Mother Ye for help.
Lin Xiuqing had heard about it a long time ago at home, and instead of expressing her opinion, she patted the heads of her two sons and told them not to make trouble, but to work hard if they wanted to.
Ye's mother also stood for a while, and then called the two sisters to go back and continue to kill fish. The two daughter-in-laws were reluctant to spend money to hire someone, so they had to do it by themselves. no way.
She looked at Father Ye who was squatting, "Have you finished moving these shells? Why don't you go in and eat first?"
Father Ye nodded.
However, as soon as he entered, he poured the food on top of the rice, put it in a big bowl and brought it over, squatting beside the pile of shells, watching the children work and eat.
Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua were the same, the father and son each held a big bowl, either sitting on the steps, or squatting there watching everyone work and eat.
By the way, let’s discuss a few words, how much can these be sold for? Can it be sold?
"We have as many of these things as rice here. Everyone doesn't like to eat them, and they don't even bother to dig them. People outside will like them?"
"After being able to buy and sell in the past few years, there are more things to eat. Will people outside like to eat things from the seaside in our countryside? There is not much meat in these shells, and no one wants to give them away."
As soon as the two brothers said this, Sister Ye and Sister Ye stopped working.
"Is there no one who wants it? Then Adong wants more, there are a lot of them today..."
"Hey? Where's A Dong? I saw him standing here just now."
"Riding away on a bicycle, he said he was going to the old house to get a big pot. Don't worry, Dongzi will definitely not play tricks. If you say yes, then you will definitely not let you smash it in your hands. You can just post it with peace of mind. .”
"Dried fish, don't we have as much as rice here? People want it too. If you are busy, you can continue to go out to sea at night, and dig as much as you can. Maybe there will be no weather at any time."
Father Ye swallowed the food in his mouth and comforted them, so as not to worry and think too much.
"It's a pity that we can't find anyone who can go to the city to look at the store, otherwise we will try to sell it ourselves. The store is empty, and we can't rent it out."
"Isn't it? I don't know why I bought it. I spent thousands of dollars and it just sits there. I don't even want to earn rent."
"We don't have time to go to the city to take a look, we don't know what it looks like..."
"How many shops are open in the city now?"
"God knows..."
Ye Yaodong happened to come back by bicycle. When he heard it, he didn't say a word, didn't come over, and went home directly.
What is there to say, it is not his responsibility, his fault, I am moved, and if I let it go, how will I lose money in the future?
Alas, it's hard to be a good man!
"I bought everything, and still talk about this? I don't want to order good ones."
Father Ye didn't bother to listen, so he went back to the next door with an empty job bowl after he finished speaking.
Ye Yaodong put the black-backed ray into the big basin, sprinkled it with finely crushed ice cubes, and covered it with two layers of torn clothes. After settling down, he went to look for the stonefish he caught today.
Who knows that I searched for several buckets but didn't see it, and ran away with long legs?
"Mom, have you seen my stonefish?"
"What kind of stonefish? Where is there any other stonefish? Didn't I tell you to throw it away when you were on the boat?" Father Ye stood aside wondering, watching him turn around, it turned out that he was looking for stonefish .
"That thing is ugly and poisonous. What are you using it for? I put it together with the guts of these fishes and threw it into the bucket. I will take it to the seaside and dump it back into the sea later."
"What? You are a prodigal, and you still call me a prodigal every day. I kept it back on purpose, and you threw it away for me."
Ye Yaodong took the bucket next to her. It was full of fish scales, gills, and belly. The stonefish was covered with only a little bit of body exposed. He didn't look carefully, thinking it was the garbage.
When he reached out and wanted to take it out, his mother slapped it on the back of a knife, "What are you doing? Just throw it away, why do you still take it out? Dare to reach out, accidentally killing you. "
"I kept it back on purpose, as long as it doesn't get pricked by the thorns on my back, it's fine." Ye Yaodong snatched the kitchen knife from his mother's hand, reached into the bucket and fiddled with it, and then picked out the stonefish from inside.
"Why do you want fish? Do you want to eat it?"
"Damn, you don't even know how tender this fish is..."
"Die, for your size, this fish is poisonous..."
"Only the spines on the back are poisonous. The fish meat is not poisonous. It is a bit like a devil fish. Only the spines are poisonous and have nothing to do with the meat."
"What are you fussing about? What if? It's not like you haven't eaten anything. There are so many fish in the house. Why do you still eat this? It's ugly, like a stone, what's delicious?"
"What do you know?"
Life is alive, eat and drink Lazard, eating is the number one!
As for men, apart from b, there is nothing left to say.
Can you eat the things in the sea? He knows more than them, and it is worthwhile to taste all the delicious food in this life.
Ye Yaodong neatly used scissors to remove the entire row of poisonous spines on its back, and then used a knife to peel off all the fish skin.
Yemu Knife was taken away by him, so he could only sit and watch, while thinking about it, "Eat everything, you will be greedy to death, and you will not be greedy for a few small ones."
Don’t listen, don’t listen, chant the scriptures!
"You used to take us to catch grasshoppers to eat, are you embarrassed to say me?"
"That one is delicious when grilled."
"When I show you a hand, you will know, go and help me get a bowl and fill it."
Lin Xiuqing has been changing the clothes of several children in the house. After a month or two, the weather will warm up. Their clothes are longer and shorter, and they have to be changed before they can continue to wear them.
After she finished changing one thing, she wanted to go out and make a cup of malted milk for her two sons, and called them back to drink and sleep, but saw Ye Yaodong fishing for something with a spatula by the stove?
"Didn't you have enough for dinner?"
"No, I caught a stone fish today, and I want to bring it back to cook fish soup to replenish your milk. This fish is very tender and super delicious."
Lin Xiuqing looked up at him, and said in surprise, "Are you trying to poison me to death and change your wife?"
"What nonsense?"
"Aren't stonefish poisonous?"
"That thorn is poisonous, what does it have to do with meat?"
"you sure?"
"Not sure I dare to tell you to eat it? I poisoned myself, but I can't poison you."
Lin Xiuqing rolled her eyes, she didn't believe it, she turned her head and went into the house.
"Hey, don't worry, the fish meat is not poisonous, just like the devil fish, but the sting is poisonous, but this fish is ugly and hard to catch, no one eats it."
Ye Yaodong couldn't call her, so he planned to eat it himself, but she rushed out immediately and refused to let him eat.
"Wait a minute..."
"Why? I'll give you a test drug first, and see how much I love you."
Lin Xiuqing glared at him, took out a small silver bracelet from Ye Xiaoxi, and put fish soup in the spoon in his hand.
Ye Yaodong said amusedly: "You are still testing poison"
"I'm afraid of death, and I'm also afraid of becoming a widow."
"Look, I told you that you can eat it, but I don't know if it can be eaten?"
The fish soup in the spoon was stuffy in one mouthful, and then he took another spoonful and fed it to her mouth.
Lin Xiuqing was relieved when she saw that the bracelet hadn't changed color.
"I don't eat, the milk will swell up every day, you can eat it by yourself, I will call the two children back to sleep, so that I can't get up every day."
Just then, they heard exclamations and joy at the door.
The couple looked at each other.
"What's wrong?"
"Are there pearls?" Ye Yaodong guessed, otherwise, why would he be so happy?
"I'm going to have a look, I just plan to go there."
Ye Yaodong also put down his soup bowl and followed him out.
As soon as I went outside, the voice became clearer, and a pearl really came out.
Luck is really good!
This also shows that there are really not many people visiting the surrounding islands, and the shellfish on it do not know how long they have grown.
"This one is quite round, and it's as big as a bean. It's sure to be worth the price."
"This is enough money. If no one wants these things, we will not lose money."
"What's your loss? Dongzi agreed, posted it to him, and still say it's a loss?" Father Ye couldn't help but said, he was the one who opened the bead.
Two women were killing fish there, unable to spare their hands. Father Ye thought that his wife was helping the third child kill fish, and he had nothing to do for a while, so he came to help them with some work.
"Ah, yes yes yes..."
Ye Yaodong looked at them holding a bead, holding it up high, shining it there with the light, and said: "Father's luck is pretty good today..."
Father Ye was proud, and all of them were excited to look at the pearls. It was rare for Dongzi to know what to say.
"I think so too. Today, my mouth feels like it has been opened, and what I said is so clever. Just now I was talking about digging so many bags. I wonder if I can open one or two beads? I didn't expect it to be true."
Lin Xiuqing also smiled and said: "We mentioned it earlier. There are still so many bags, maybe we can open them again!"
"Yes, yes, continue to dig..."
"Hey, there are so many baskets of dried fish here, and I don't know how long it will take?"
They also don’t want to kill fish anymore, thinking whether to invite two family members to come over to help kill, so that the fat and water don’t flow to outsiders’ fields, otherwise they have to go to sea with them at night, which is too much for them.
However, when they kept driving on the second, third, and fourth nights in a row, they never drove again.
The neighbors heard about it again, and they were also motivated. They wanted to go out to sea to dig out these shells. They followed suit the year before last, but they died down after they had nothing to gain. They started again in the past two days. Resurrected.
However, Ye Yaodong did not promise his neighbors that he would accept their shell meat, mussel meat and so on.
His second brother didn't show it here, he didn't sell it in the market, and he didn't know if anyone wanted it. How could he dare to promise others?
How can you have to try it? He doesn't have that much money to lose, so he can try a little bit.
