Back to 80s, pretend to be in debt and get out of the misery

I went to the city and sold razor clams twice today, and the quality was both good.

After a rough calculation of the payment, it would cost more than a thousand yuan.

"Mom, have you sold enough for 1000 yuan?"

Qin Mahua took out the account book and was about to pay it off when she suddenly took it back and said, "Xiaoxuan, you should also take a guess."

Chu Xuan guessed happily, "1050 yuan."

Qin Mahua then handed over the account book and said, "Look carefully."

Fu Qing and Chu Xuan reached for the account book almost at the same time.

Chu Xuan quickly retracted her hand, "Sister-in-law, look first."

Pay Qing took the account book and put it in front of Chu Xuan, "Let's take a look together."

The account book clearly stated: The first trip to the King Razor Clam cost 460 yuan, and the second trip cost 795 yuan, totaling 1255 yuan. After deducting the 95 yuan cost of collecting the king razor clam, there was still 1165 yuan left.

Qin Mahua took out a wad of money from her pocket and put it in her hand.

"This is 1165 yuan, you two can divide it!"

Huaqing hurriedly said, "Mom, the difference in price from the razor clams collected should belong to the family."

Chu Xuan also expressed her attitude, "Sister-in-law is right."

Qin Mahua said with a kind smile, "Your father and I have discussed it. We only need the cost and don't make the difference. I'm sleepy, go back to the house and sleep, and you two will slowly divide the money."

Fu Qing and Chu Xuan thanked their mother-in-law and watched her go back to the bedroom before starting to divide the money.

582.5 yuan per person.

After dividing the money and paying it off, he couldn't help but sigh, "Xiaoxuan, I feel like I've benefited from you these past two days! You're really prosperous in catching shipping."

More than a month ago, she went to sea alone, and her accumulated income was not as much as what she earns today.

Chu Xuan covered her mouth and smiled, "It's just a coincidence. I go on a day with high tides and floods, so there will naturally be more fish than usual. Sister-in-law, I will go back to the house first to help Chenze pour water for washing feet."

Turn around and walk to the main room.

"Is that so?" Fu Qing murmured in a low voice, "I've been to spring floods before, and they were all clams, not king razor clams!"

Turn off the lights in the main room, go back to the room and get the footbath, go to the kitchen to get hot water and soak your feet...

At [-]:[-] the next morning, Mu Chenfu ate breakfast in a hurry and went to the dock to meet Lin Yong.

Mu Chenze can take a nap today and then go to the dock to wait for the offshore fishing boat in the afternoon.

After Chu Xuan got up, he didn't wake him up.

After washing up and having breakfast, I took out the pork tenderloin from the refrigerator and took it with me.

Go to my parents’ yard to try out new bread products.

Around nine o'clock in the morning, Mu Chenze came over to help.

"Daughter-in-law, what kind of bread are you going to bake today?"

Chu Xuan responded softly, "Pork floss bread, three flavors: spicy, sweet, salty and sweet."

I prepared tenderloin, ginger, cooking wine, oil, dark soy sauce, salt, sugar, etc. in advance and planned to make pork floss myself.

At this point the tenderloin pieces are cooked and entering the pounding stage.

Mu Chenze came just in time to do this job.

Chu Xuan taught him how to beat, and he chatted while beating the cooked meat with a thick rolling pin.

"Daughter-in-law, did our mother teach you this method of making meat floss?"

"Yes."

"We have to break open the cement floor in the middle of the yard if we have time, Chu Dashan said..."

There was no time to discuss this matter yesterday, and since there was no one else here today, Chu Xuan explained in detail what Chu Dashan mentioned.

After hearing this, Mu Chenze decided to break open the cement floor and dig out gold bars tonight.

However, the sound of hitting the ground can easily attract patrols.

I plan to contact Min Yi after digging up gold bars.

Before they could discuss it, there was a knock on the door.

Mu Chenze continued to pound the cooked meat.

Chu Xuan went to open the door.

It was Aunt Li who was laying the foundation next door.

"Xiao Xuan, can I borrow your shovel? Will it be back before five o'clock in the afternoon?"

"No problem, Aunt Li, I'll get it for you."

"Thank you! When you cook food at your house, my shoes are covered with mud, so I won't go in and wait at the door." Upon hearing this, Chu Xuan knew that Aunt Li was a polite person.

Soon, Chu Xuan brought a shovel and handed it to Aunt Li.

Aunt Li thanked her again, took the shovel, and then asked, "What are you smashing at your house? Are you demolishing the stove?"

After hearing this, Mu Chenze deliberately ran to the door of the kitchen and raised his thick rolling pin, "I have been pounding the meat floss for several hours. My wife plans to make a new type of meat floss bread. After the production is successful, I will treat you to it." "

Aunt Li waved her hands repeatedly, "No need to treat me to food, I will buy it when the time comes."

"Okay, you are welcome to buy!"

After Mu Chenze finished speaking, he returned to the kitchen to continue smashing the cooked meat, and the clanging sound sounded again.

Aunt Li said to Chu Xuan, "With this kind of beating method, why don't you destroy the stove? Hit the cement floor, lay a layer of something on the cement floor and then beat it."

"Thank you for your suggestion. I will ask Chenze to move to the yard and beat the meat floss."

"Why are you so polite? Let's go!"

Aunt Li took the shovel and left.

Chu Xuan spread a layer of blankets on the cement floor and several layers of clean paper. "Ze, if the stove is really cracked, you should go to the yard and beat the meat floss!"

Mu Chenze instantly had an idea and informed Grandpa Wang in advance not to let the village patrol team come here tonight.

When someone heard the sound of banging on the ground, if anyone asked, they would say that Xiaoxuan and he had been making meat floss bread all night, and the meat floss had to be smashed for a long time.

Anyway, the villagers live far away from here, so the sound of hitting the ground is not that harsh to their ears.

At around [-] o'clock at noon, Mu Chenze went to see Wang Depin.

Chu Xuan took the tools to catch the sea and met up with Fu Qing and Qin Mahua, and together they rushed to the secret place to catch the sea.

When we got there, the tide had begun to ebb.

Some razor clam caves were exposed, but obviously fewer than the previous two days.

It is estimated that there will be less or even none tomorrow.

The three of them are contented people, and they can catch whatever they can.

An hour later, each of them had half of their baskets loaded.

It is difficult to find Razor King Cave on the beach.

The three of them walked in the direction of a dozen tide pools.

There was a one-meter-long giant mackerel in one of the tide pools.

Fu Qing exclaimed, "This is the biggest Spanish mackerel I have ever encountered since I went to sea."

Qin Mahua's face beamed with joy, "Our fishing boats rarely catch such a big Spanish mackerel!"

Chu Xuan had met it before, but it was sent by the blue whale with the help of the waves.

Blue whales generally do not appear here during this month.

However, she still looked towards the sea.

No blue whale was seen.

It seems that this time it was not sent by Blue Whale.

He looked back and said with a smile, "It seems that the three of us are lucky."

The three of them worked together to get the big mackerel out of the tide pool and put it on the beach.

There are some octopus, clams, oysters and the like in other tide pools, so take them all as ordered.

The big mackerel must be about fifty kilograms, so pay off and volunteer to carry it.

Chu Xuan wanted to pour all the seafood in his sister-in-law's basket into his own basket, but Qin Mahua snatched it away.

"half each."

Qin Mahua said this, but she poured more than half of it into her own basket and half of it into Chu Xuan's basket.

Chu Xuan felt warm in her heart. Her sister-in-law and mother-in-law rushed to do the heavy work, leaving the lightest basket to her.

"On the way back later, my sister-in-law and I will take turns carrying the big mackerel. Let's go ashore! Try our luck in the bushes. Maybe we can catch a few sea ducks."

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of sea ducks flew to the beach to look for food.

The three of them put down their backpacks and approached quietly.

This group of sea ducks was very alert today and ran away before the three of them could reach out to catch them.

The three of them had no choice but to carry their backpacks back to the shore and try their luck in the woods...
