happy fisherman

Chapter 85

85
"Yuzhu!" Chen Shi followed and asked: "I know you've been helping their family weave fishing nets these days, but what are they doing with such a big fishing net?"

After Yuzhu finished weaving the fishing net, she secretly looked at it, and it was more than twice the size of the fishing net at home. I don't know if that stinky girl, Bai Beibei, thought of some way to make money again?

"do not know!"

Chen choked, and asked persistently: "Didn't Beibei just say that she wanted to find someone to help her weave the fishing net, or count me in?"

Bai Yuzhu turned her head and smiled at Mrs. Chen: "Don't you still want to do business? Where do you get the time to weave fishing nets?"

In the past, the fishing net at home was broken and asked her to mend it, but she said she couldn't mend it. Now, when she hears that there is money to be made, she will come forward eagerly. It's really ridiculous!
"The tea shed doesn't have customers every day. I can help when I'm free." Chen said hastily.

"No need!" Bai Yuzhu stepped into the room with both feet, and slammed the door shut with a bang, startling Chen.

Mrs. Chen patted her chest and shouted in: "Yuzhu, Bo Beibei is always looking for help, whoever earns this money is not earning it, we are a family, do you want to see this fat water flow into other people's fields? ?”

After a while, Bai Yuzhu didn't respond. Chen was a little discouraged, and was about to go back to the house, but when she turned around, she saw a few dark shadows.

"what--"

Chen Shi screamed, and when she looked closely, she realized that these black shadows seemed to be her mother-in-law and You Shi's couple.

"Mother, brother, sister-in-law, people are so scary that they scare people to death!" Chen, still in shock, touched the edge of the table and lit the oil lamp before calling out to them.

"If you don't do anything wrong, you won't be afraid of ghosts calling your door. If you haven't done anything wrong, what are you afraid of?" You Shi said sarcastically, supporting his waist with one hand and his stomach with the other.

Mrs. Chen almost couldn't bring it up in one breath. Just as she was about to start cursing, she heard her mother-in-law ask: "Mr. Chen, everyone is going to bed, why are you still yelling?"

The whole family heard what Mrs. Chen yelled at the door of Yuzhu House just now, and Mrs. You and Bai Daluo also came out for the word "money" in Mrs. Chen's mouth.

Thinking of Yuzhu's attitude just now, Mrs. Chen rolled her eyes, and told a few people about Beibei finding someone to weave a fishing net.

"Bai Beibei is willing to pay someone to weave fishing nets?" You Shi looked at Chen Shi suspiciously.

"Mr. Chen, did you hear me wrong? Boman Boat, Bai Dinghai, and Bai Dinglang have long since left the sea to fish. What are they weaving so many fishing nets for?" Bai Daluo didn't quite believe Chen's words either. , because Mrs. Chen has too many thoughts, who knows if she is cheating on them again.

"Yuzhu is helping their family weave fishing nets. It's not like you don't know. You have to ask Yuzhu what they want so many fishing nets for." Chen looked at her mother-in-law and said.

Chen's meaning is obvious, and Yuzhu will only say it when Yuzhuniang asks.

Yuzhu Niang thought for a while, and said: "I'll ask Yuzhu tomorrow, if Beibei really finds someone to weave fishing nets, we will help her weave them, so that we can earn more money to help the family."

Chen's eyes widened. She helped Bo Beibei weave fishing nets because she didn't want to confiscate the money.

But Mrs. Chen also knew that now was not the time to talk about this, and she had to wait for Yuzhu to agree to it before talking about it.

After Bai Beibei returned from Yuzhu's house, she went into the kitchen. Seeing that there were not many ingredients in the kitchen, and she couldn't make the sauce of Master Rong and the seasoning of Qianzhangjie, she had to go back to sleep.

Of course, things like flavored fruit that cannot be bought with money were automatically ignored by her.

In the middle of the night, Bai Beibei brought the essence fruit stones into the space, and planted four essence fruit stones in the ground.

She didn't know how to plant the essence fruit, so she just dug a small hole, put the fruit core in, and then covered it with soil. Whether it survived or not depends on luck.

After planting the seeds, Bo Beibei went into the bedroom again, which was the cave with the bed.

Bo Beibei added a locker and a wardrobe to the bedroom, and the cave didn't look as empty as before.

It's just that there is almost nothing to put in the two cabinets. In the locker, there is only the 5000 taels of silver bills that Bo Beibei stored in the space at the beginning, and nothing else. The wardrobe is even more empty, without a single piece of clothing.

However, she will slowly add these things in the future.

Sitting at the stone table, Bo Beibei flipped through one of the medical books on the table, opened the cornered page, memorized the medicines on it, and then left the space.

Early the next morning, Yuzhuniang saw that her daughter had gone to the beach to weave nets again, so she went to tell her about the fishing nets.

Yuzhu only replied indifferently: "Can the nets woven by the two of them catch fish?"

When asked by her daughter, Yuzhu's mother couldn't answer immediately. She really didn't dare to compliment the net-weaving skills of the two daughters-in-law. I thought that when Yuzhu's father saw the fishing nets they wove, his face turned black, and then they didn't. Touched the shuttle again.

You Shi and Chen Shi never imagined that they would shoot their own feet with stones. In fact, it's not that they can't weave fishing nets.

Yuzhu Niang's lips twitched, and she said again: "You two sister-in-laws can't weave, but mother can weave. Let's take this job and earn some money to help the family."

Bai Yuzhu paused with the shuttle, looked at her mother standing beside her with a complicated expression, and asked, "Mother, how many years have you been weaving a fishing net?"

Her mother is getting old, and Yuzhu doesn't want her to be tired, but now that her mother says she wants to make money to help the family, Yuzhu has mixed feelings in her heart.

"Mother hasn't weaved a net for many years, but Mother's skills are not unfamiliar. Your sister-in-law will give birth next year, and your third brother is not married yet. Earn a little more."

"Mother, the dowry gift of 30 taels was used up so quickly when the boat was full? Do you still need to weave a lot of fishing nets to help the family?" Yuzhu couldn't help asking in the end.

Although she knew for a long time that her mother would spend her heart and soul for the sake of the three elder brothers, and obeyed the two sister-in-laws, she would not care about her feelings at all. She also told herself not to expect her mother to treat her and her elder brothers equally, but every time she saw She still couldn't help being sad when her mother forced her to do things she didn't want to do for the sake of her brother and sister-in-law.

"Yuzhu, 30 taels is not 300 taels. There will always be a day when you run out, and you can earn a little bit." Yuzhu's mother didn't see the difference in her daughter, and continued.

"Mother, do you dislike the lack of betrothal gifts given by Manchurian?" Yuzhu asked in a very bad tone.

"Mother didn't mean that." Yuzhuniang didn't know when her daughter became so disobedient, and she always choked her with words.

Yuzhu knew that her mother didn't mean that, but she just had nowhere to vent her anger: "Mother, father will go to sea when he is old, so it's fine if the eldest brother and the second brother don't help, and the money they earned from opening the tea shed goes into their own pockets." Yes, but why do they have the nerve to ask you to weave fishing nets to help the family?"
