Chapter 78 Ground cage net
After the meal, Lin Xiuqing handed the fifteen cards to Ye Mu in front of the two sister-in-laws, and Ye Mu accepted them with a smile without saying anything.
But after dark at night, Mother Ye secretly went to Ye Yaodong's room again. Fortunately, both of them were still awake.
"Mom?"
"Shh, go in and talk."
Lin Xiuqing gently closed the door in doubt, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
Mother Ye took out a square handkerchief from her pocket, and then opened the four corners of the handkerchief, which contained the fifteen sheets of Great Unity that Lin Xiuqing gave her in the afternoon.
Both the couple looked at Mother Ye in surprise, "Mother, what are you doing?"
"I've discussed it with your father. It's rare for Dongzi to want to work seriously. Let's treat the small wooden boat as a self-made household item for you, and you don't need to pay for it. The two of us are old and young, so we can do it. "
Lin Xiuqing and Ye Yaodong looked at each other and said, "That's not good, the small wooden boat belongs to the public, so I gave it to us. My sister-in-law and second sister-in-law will definitely make trouble when they find out."
"It's fine if you don't say no? And they are not losing money. We know what kind of small calculations they are making. We are not thinking about going to sea with your father, so that there will be no cost, and there will be money to share. You guys The little wooden boat has to be self-reliant, and the two of them will follow your father to fish and share the money, which is also fair."
"If you spend money to buy small wooden boats and do it alone, but they follow your father without profit, you will suffer. Take it, your father and I are like mirrors, and neither of you will lose."
Originally, the family background of the third child is weaker than that of the eldest and the second child. Ye’s father and Ye’s mother don’t want money from their sons. Anyway, they pay for the house, so the difference is only 150 yuan.
Having reached this point, Lin Xiuqing had no choice but to accept the money, and said gratefully, "Thank you, mother."
"Okay, put away the money and go to bed early." Mother Ye went out again lightly.
Her parents-in-law really have nothing to say about how they behave, and they may be a little partial. She is really lucky to have such parents-in-law. It would be even better if men are sensible and motivated.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Ye Yaodong looked at her little Xiyi eyes, feeling a little awkward.
"Your parents are so considerate of you, you can only be worthy of them by working hard and making money."
He changed his posture uncomfortably, and said weakly: "I see, what are you talking about at night, go to bed early, and I have to work again tomorrow."
Lin Xiuqing glanced at him, then went to put the money back in the drawer and locked it, and then went to bed to coax the two children who were fighting, and explained to them that grandma gave money to parents, no one was allowed to speak out. Can't talk about it, so as not to add unnecessary right and wrong.
Early the next morning, when they went to the new homestead by the beach, they passed by and saw Lin Jishang’s family gesturing on how to build a house on the old site, saying that it should be smaller or something.
They greeted each other with a smile and left, no matter how others built it, they thought about their own house.
Last night, Ye’s father came to each house and told the workers that work would start again today. The foundation has already been laid once, and it will save a lot of trouble if it is done again. Just follow the previous regulations.
Ye Yaodong waited until lunch break after lunch, and then took some time to go to the pier to look at his small wooden boat. Yesterday when his father was testing the water, he asked how to scull, and now he tried it out, and rowed out.
After paddling around the shore for a while, he felt that it was not difficult, and it was easy to get started. Maybe the seaside people are more talented in boats.
In the evening, he discussed with Lin Xiuqing that it would be more expensive to buy a ready-made ground cage net, and buy the thread to make it by himself, and ask his mother to help, his mother should be very happy.
Lin Xiuqing nodded, no objection.
When the neighbors knew that their family got a small wooden boat for nothing because of changing the foundation, they were all envious.
"Lixiang, your family has been really lucky recently. If you sit at home, your money will come from heaven!"
"Yes, that small wooden boat is also worth a lot of money. Why didn't we encounter such a good thing."
"Is the person who bought the foundation stupid? There are so many open spaces in the village, why did you just look at your house?"
"Haven't you heard? It's because of the good geomantic omen of the land that they asked someone to look at it, so they were willing to take a boat as compensation. Otherwise, there is no benefit. Whoever is willing to change it, the foundation has been laid."
"That's true, you really know how to choose a place, and we country people can sell our strength. It's nothing to work for a few days, that boat is the big one."
Mother Ye said with a smile: "We haven't worked in vain these days. Just like workers, we have wages."
"Ah, that's really profitable..."
"Put it on me, I'm willing to..."
Mother Ye was chatting vigorously with her neighbors when Lin Xiuqing called her into the house. After knowing the plan of the third child and the others, she was absolutely willing.
As long as the son can grow up, she can help a little more, and it's nothing to do some work.
"Then you go to buy materials tomorrow, I will teach your wife how to make it, the two of you should be faster."
"good."
The ground cage net is made of No. 8 iron wire as the skeleton, and is surrounded by a mesh of 15mm to form a square, foldable cage net. The whole ground cage net is 2m long and is separated by 11 square iron wire skeletons. Form 10 small mesh cages of 20cm×20cm×20cm connected internally.
Both sides of the small net cage are equipped with spaced fish luring holes. The fish luring holes are trumpet-shaped inverted whisker net openings, and fish and shrimp can only enter but not exit.
The two ends of the ground cage net are conical fish-collecting net bags. When the freshwater shrimp enters the ground cage net from the fish-lure hole, they are misled and crawl into the fish-collecting bags at both ends and are caught.
Making ground cage nets is more laborious than weaving nets. They all do it after dinner, and Ye Yaodong also joins in to help. He didn't even go to play when some of his friends asked him to play.
The family members were much more pleased to see him so caring.
Until the fifteenth day was approaching, Xiao Xiao and the others had tasted the sweetness last time, and this time they came to ask Ye Yaodong if he wanted to go to the isolated island, and Ye Yaodong readily agreed.
"I have a small wooden boat, but there is no fishing net, but it is still no problem to row to an isolated island to explore the sea, and we can also avoid renting a boat and being slaughtered. It is not always such good luck."
"Is it the boat that your family bought in vain some time ago? Is your father willing to let you go out?" Ah Guang asked curiously.
"Well, those of you who are going to go tomorrow, come to my house and let's go together."
Ah Zheng thought for a while and said: "I seem to have a frisbee net lying around at home, I'll take it with me tomorrow, in case I encounter a big one, if there is no net, I should slap my thigh in frustration!"
"Okay, it doesn't matter what kind of fishing net, as long as it can be used."
He originally wanted his wife to weave a Frisbee net, but then he thought that this net is a hand-cast net and must be continuously operated at sea, unlike the ground cage, which can be pulled every two or three days.
Don't care about the homestead, just go to sea to earn money by yourself, when his two sisters-in-law have something to say again, it will be easier to use the ground cage net.
