Chapter 14

Zhao Dahai opened his eyes, turned his head to look at the window, it was already bright, got up immediately, got dressed, and just walked out of the yard when he saw grandma Zhong Cuihua walking in with a bucket.

"Hey!"

"grandmother!"

"Wait until I wake up to do this!"

"About two hours"

Zhao Dahai knew at a glance that Zhong Cuihua had gone to water the vegetable field.

"Hehehe!"

"How can everything be waiting for you to do it?! It's not impossible to pour some water."

Zhong Cuihua shook her head.In the past few days, Zhao Dahai has been very busy.The seeds that have just been planted need to be watered every day. This is not a heavy job. If you can do it yourself, help out.

Zhao Dahai took the bucket, went to the corner to put it down, lifted the lid of a large bucket on the ground, and looked at the mud crabs dug yesterday. There was no problem. He originally planned to sell it today, but the distance between the village and the town Not far away, I sell more than a dozen big blue crabs at once, and people in my village or other villages must know what's going on. The blue crabs have strong vitality. If you pour some sea water on them, they won't die for half a month or even a month. In a few days, I will go into the mangrove forest a few more times, and I can dig the blue crabs I can find and sweep them together before selling them.

Zhao Dahai picked up the dustpan where the mud snails and sea melon seeds were drying, walked out of the yard, put them on the stone pile at the door, and pulled the mud snails and sea melon seeds. One night, the flesh of the mud snails was big and thick, [-]% to [-]% dry, and the flesh of sea melon seeds was small, [-]% to [-]% dry. Now during the day, the wind has not seen the wind and the sun is still there. After a day, it is dry and harvested. Get up and dry it from time to time, it can last for a long time.

"The sea."

"Where did you get these mud snails and sea melon seeds?"

"This meat is quite big!"

Zhao Dahai looked back and saw that it was Ma Hongyu.

"Aunt Ma."

"Where are you going?"

"Where do you work at the dock?"

"This thing is worthless, no one wants it, can it not grow up? I'll get some back and dry it, and eat it when there is no food."

"Where did you get it?"

"On the edge of the mangrove forest! Few people go there, this thing is bigger."

Zhao Dahai greeted with a smile.Mud snails and sea melon seeds, especially sea melon seeds, sell for five or six yuan a catty in the city, but in the villages by the sea, there are not many people who care about this stuff. If you want to eat it, you can dig anywhere in the sea for more than ten, twenty or even hundreds of catties. , Eat till you vomit.

"Yo!"

"There are such big mud snails and sea melon seeds on the edge of the forest in Hongcun?"

"That's a good idea. Dry it and save it. One day when you don't want to buy vegetables, grab a handful, chop a radish or stir-fry a few garlic sprouts, wouldn't it be a dish? One day you really have to get some return."

Ma Hongyu has been in the village for 30 years, but she really doesn't know where there are such big mud snails and sea melon seeds nearby.

"Who said no?"

"Where do you get the money to buy meat every day!?"

Zhao Dahai nodded.

Ma Hongyu chatted for a while before turning and leaving.

Zhao Dahai smiled. The aunts, aunts, aunts, and six wives in the village each have their own little plans. Ma Hongyu had been looking at the mud snails and sea melon seeds in her dustpan just now. Big, immediately inquired, maybe one day there will be a place to dig if you want to eat.In these places near the village, people like Ma Hongyu are more familiar than me, so I can't help it. If you don't mention the mangroves, it will cause suspicion. Dig more and catch more blue crabs before you find them, so as to avoid long nights and dreams.

Zhao Dahai continued to carefully pull the mud snails and sea melon seeds in the dustpan, making sure to turn them all over, so that they could be dried thoroughly. After finishing this work, after breakfast, he took a bag of mud snails and sea melon seeds left on purpose last night and grandma After saying that, he went out and walked towards Zhao Shi's house. When he was standing at the gate of the yard, he yelled "Second Grandpa", and he heard someone push the door and walk in.

"Second grandpa."

"Second grandma."

Zhao Dahai saw Zhao Shi and Huang Jintao having breakfast.

"Ouch!"

"How did you get here, Dahai?!"

"Come on! Sit down."

"Second Grandma will get you a bowl of porridge."

Jintao stood up while talking.

Zhao Dahai stopped Huang Jintao, he had already had breakfast.

"Second grandpa."

"I went into the mangroves yesterday."

"I touched some mud snails and sea melon seeds."

"Bring you some."

Zhao Dahai put down the mud snails and sea melon seeds he was carrying while talking.The blue crab didn't bring it here, it wasn't because he was reluctant, Zhao Shi definitely didn't want to bring it over, it was something that could be sold for money, taking it was equivalent to taking his own money, so he had to let him take it back.Mud snails and sea melon seeds are not rare things. Bring them to Zhao Shi for a taste, so he won't shirk.

"Oh?!"

"What are you doing digging this thing in the mangrove?! You can't sell it for money."

Zhao Shi frowned, mud snails and sea melon seeds can't be sold for money, the effort is not worth it.

"Not going to sell."

"The meat was boiled, picked and dried in the sun."

"Eat a variety of food in the bowl."

Zhao Dahai really didn't intend to sell these sea melon seeds and mud snails.

Zhao Shi looked a little better.

After sitting for a while, Zhao Dahai got up and left, busying himself with the affairs in the field. In addition, he planned to enter the mangrove forest for the past two days and had to prepare.

"Da Hai seems to have changed his gender. He's starting to live a life."

"Pack up the house and everything."

"The vegetable fields have already been dug and planted, and I almost got into a fight with Sun Minghua."

Huang Jintao sent Zhao Dahai out of the yard, turned around and came back, pulling a chair and sitting beside Zhao Shi.

"Humph!"

"Sun Minghua took over Zhao Dahai's house. He won't have anything to say if he is beaten to death."

Zhao Shi pursed his lips.Zhao Dahai did a good job in this matter.Life in the village is not that simple. You must fight for what you have to fight for. If you can't keep your own things, the whole village looks down on you.

"Catching crabs and selling fish a few days ago."

"I made some money. I didn't waste it randomly, I just bought rice oil or something. The old sister-in-law said, buy her red date cake. Really sensible!"

"Hey!"

"My old sister-in-law can feel at ease now, and she will rest in peace when she dies."

Jintao wiped the corner of her eyes.The grandfathers of Zhao Shi and Zhao Dahai are brothers and they separated, but their blood is thicker than water.Two years ago, something happened to Zhao Dahai's father and mother who went fishing, leaving only Zhao Dahai and Zhong Cuihua in the family. Life was very difficult, and what was even more difficult was that Zhao Dahai was ignorant and lazy.Now it seems that everything is in the past.In the past few days, Zhao Dahai has cleaned up the house, planted the land, caught crab goby and sold it for money.Now I know how to go into the mangrove forest, dig mud snails and snails, and dry sea melon seeds to eat as vegetables.This is living a solid life.

Zhao Shi picked up the hookah placed on the wall, took out the shredded tobacco in the bag, rubbed a small ball into the cigarette holder, lit it, and took a few puffs of "Gu Gu Gu Gu", his face tensed.

At first glance, Jintao knew that something must be wrong.

"The sea wants to fix that ship."

Zhao Shi exhaled thick smoke.

"what?"

"How about this at first?"

"I have to talk to my sister-in-law!"

Huang Jintao screamed and stood up immediately.

"What are you doing?"

"I said this. The old sister-in-law nodded in agreement."

Zhao Shi shook his head.

"Going to sea is dangerous."

……

"Why does Da Hai have to go fishing? Can you find something else to do?"

……

"Didn't Dadong and Xiaodong do a good job in Electronic Stone? It's 4000 yuan a month! It's hard work, but it's safe to stay in the factory!"

"Why don't you let Dahai go to work with Dadong and Xiaodong?"

……

Huang Jintao sat down slowly, her mouth was trembling, and she kept nagging.

Zhao Shi's complexion became even uglier, he thought this way, but Zhao Dahai was not happy, Zhong Cuihua nodded again, the key is that Zhao Dahai was right, Zhong Cuihua was getting old, he couldn't have no one by his side, and life had to be lived, so besides going out to sea to catch What else can fish do to make money?
