Chapter 97 Going to the Sea to Put a Ground Cage
The old father-in-law and uncle's arrival made his wife very happy. Although she didn't say anything, he also knew that this time he finally let her make a move, and he had something good to say to her family. up.
Ye Yaodong also felt a little guilty, but fortunately, the node of rebirth was okay, and he could still make up for her.
In the early morning of the next day, he will be arrogant, get up high-spirited and take the dozen or so ground cages that he has made to the sea. Although the number is a little small, it is better than nothing. more!
Doing the sea is originally based on luck and the sky.
After stacking the ground cages on the boat, Ye Yaodong looked around and saw the boat of A Guang and the others. It was very recognizable and conspicuous, and they hadn't untied the big red flower hydrangea on it.
It's agreed, let's go to sea together this morning, and he will wait on the boat.
Didn't make him wait long, and the three of them walked over talking and laughing.
"Dongzi, why are you so early? We went to your house to call you, but grandma said you have come out."
"It's just that you are too late."
A Guang asked: "Didn't I tell you yesterday morning, I went to my house for dinner last night, why didn't you come? We specially kept a lot of fish we caught yesterday morning, and we haven't seen you come after waiting for a long time. I still miss you." It's better to come later, just in time for you to wash the dishes."
"It's a good thing I didn't go, otherwise I wouldn't eat anything, and I still have to wash the dishes. My father-in-law and uncle came yesterday, and I also had dinner at home last night. I can't go away."
"What are you doing here?"
"Send a cart full of watermelons."
"Your father-in-law is very nice, and even sent you watermelons all the way."
"Well, it's okay, hurry up and get on the boat."
The two boats were sailing side by side, and they chatted while paddling. The sun was shining a little, but they couldn't stop their enthusiasm for life.
With the boat, their whole mental outlook looks much more positive.
"It seems that the tide is about to ebb now. Do you want to go to the sea later? I don't know if I don't. There are a lot of things on the isolated islands around us." Ah Zheng looked at Ye Yaodong with a smile, "Anyway, you have come out, put it on the ground. The cage net is not much more, and it is better to go to the sea after going back to work."
"Yeah, there is no wind today, and the waves are not too big. After we cast a few nets yesterday, we wanted to go to an isolated island, but who knew it was windy yesterday afternoon."
"There is no big low tide today, it's very dangerous. You guys are going to look around in a while. I'll put the cage down first." Ye Yaodong was also very moved, he hadn't been swimming in the sea for a while.
The two boats moved side by side, and there were various buoys floating in the middle of the sea, all of which were ground cages or crab cages placed by their village or the neighboring village in this sea area.
After rowing the boat to the middle of the sea that he thought was suitable, he straightened and stretched the prepared ground cage until it was fully unfolded.
He tidied up the ground cage again. After checking that there were no knots, he tied it with a rope and made a knot. At the same time, he put the prepared small miscellaneous fish as bait into the ground cage. One hand throws out the small anchor first and then the ground cage.
After one ground cage is finished, the second ground cage is tied to the rope of the first ground cage, and placed in a row.
Pay attention, don’t put the cage too tightly, if you put it too tight, you won’t be able to catch a single fish or shrimp.
He only has 16 ground cages, and he put them in two rows. After setting them up, he rowed the boat to the place where the three of them were working in the distance.
"I have thrown a few nets, is there any good goods?"
"I netted a bunch of worthless small water valley fish, the biggest ones are those two blue crabs and that big bass."
Ye Yaodong moved the boat a little closer, and also saw the big bass in the bucket, "That's right, there will be two hard goods in a while, and the bass weighs five or six catties, and it doesn't matter whether the small bucket is plum boy or small yellow croaker." Quite a few."
Ah Guang looked at the buckets at his feet, "It's Mei Tong, it's okay, I'll change this net after throwing this net."
"Then you throw it away first, I will go around to see if there is any small island with a beach exposed."
"The water level is not that high, so it doesn't look that steep. After all, it's not the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year. The tide hasn't dropped so low."
"I'll go and have a look first."
He rowed the boat to the nearest small island, but found that it was difficult to even get on the island, surrounded by reefs on all sides, and it was very steep. The waves beat on it, and it was easy to be beaten into it. nautical mile.
But there must be a lot of goods on the reefs of this small island, and there may be sea chicken feet on the reefs that have been beaten by waves all year round.
After turning around in a circle, he secretly remembered the small island in his heart and rowed away again, planning to wait for a few days to visit again on the first day of the lunar new year.
As a result, he searched for three small islands in a row, but there was no suitable one, and it was meaningless to search any further. He could only return without success.
But he didn’t think about it, he paddled back, but a stupid fish jumped onto the fishing boat and jumped on the boat, "Damn it, stupid!"
Ye Yaodong kicked the big fish speechlessly, "It was delivered to the door automatically, if only two more."
As soon as the words fell, another one popped up. He couldn't laugh or cry, he was just talking casually, so clever?
Going over to take a look, he saw another bigger one jumping up on the sea level. With quick eyes and quick hands, he fished it out with both hands, hugged it in his arms, and threw it on the boat again.
"Grass, one is bigger than one, and one is stupider than one!"
Things that can be obtained without much effort, don’t want them in vain. He parked the boat here for a while, wondering if there were any more, but after waiting for a long time, there was no movement. Just when he wanted to leave, he saw A gray-white floating object came floating.
He took a closer look, and it seemed to be a big fish.
Out of curiosity, he rowed the boat over, only to see clearly that it was a dead sea pig.
It was about one meter long, and it didn’t look too small, but it was a pity that it was dead. It took him a long time to pick it up with the bucket and throw it on the boat.
Checked and found that it was still fresh, and I don’t know how it died, whether it was bitten by a big fish.
This sea pig is also worth a lot of money, earned it!
He put it back into the bucket happily, and rowed back to find Ah Guang, Ah Zheng, and Xiao Xiao.
The three of them have already changed jobs.
"Hey, I just picked up a good thing in the sea."
"What?" The three turned their heads curiously.
After he rowed the boat closer, he handed them the bucket, "It's a sea pig that just died, and it looks fresh."
The three of them took a look, "It's lucky, I didn't do anything, and I still picked up a sea pig."
"There are three silly ones who jumped into the boat by themselves. The big one weighs five or six catties, and the small one looks like it weighs more than two catties."
"This fish isn't worth much, but it's delicious if you cut it into small pieces and pickle it."
"It can also be used to cook fish fillet hot and sour soup!"
