Chapter 99
After returning to school, Shirley and Miko had finished their meal, and they were shopping at the night market.

Lu Xiaolu told Xueli about going to Xiaobei's brother and sister's house for dinner tomorrow.

Shirley also accompanied him to deliver the net, and she liked the two brothers and sisters very much, so she readily agreed.

"Brother Captain, you took Sister Shirley away and left me behind. You have to make it up to me today."

"Okay, what do you want to eat?" Lu Xiaolu didn't know her yet, and it didn't affect the supper after dinner.

"Snail Noodles!"

"Uh, you guys go eat, I'll pay the bill." Lu Xiaolu had a headache, the food smelled like ink, and he didn't know what it was delicious for.

The next day was a basketball match, and the classes were adjusted, so there was no need for classes. Lu Xiaolu and Xueli rode tricycles to Xiaonan Xiaobei's village.

I passed by the supermarket and bought a carton of milk, and the last time Lu Xiaolu was hospitalized, the two boxes of nutritional supplements sent by Kenjiro Sekiguan were unopened, so I brought them with me.

In Shitou Village, the ancestors have been fishermen who depended on the sea for food. Now most of the younger generation go out to study and work.

Being a fisherman is actually a very hard job, and you don't earn much.

Xiaobei has no choice but to take care of his younger sister and is underage, so he can only go fishing to catch the sea.

The siblings obviously didn't expect Lu Xiaolu and the others to come so early, and after calling them to sit down, Xiao Bei went to clean up the house in a panic.

As a fisherman, no matter how clean he is, he can't avoid clutter.

"Sister Shirley, brother donkey, come here as soon as you come, why buy so many things!"

Shirley didn't answer the topic, but asked about the condition of her legs, and then chatted about the whispers between girls.

Lu Xiaolu was a little embarrassed, so he could only hide out the door.

Xiaobei's house is not big, just three stone houses connected together. There are ground cages and fishing nets at the door, some of which are Xiaobei's own, and others put them here to mend.

Seeing him visiting his own house, Xiaobei was a little embarrassed, blushing and said: "Brother Donkey, the house is a bit messy, I'm really sorry."

Lu Xiaolu waved his hand, it was the same when he was catching eels at home, the ground cage could cover the yard.

At the beginning, I can clean it up. If I need to use it every day, I don’t bother to do it. It’s normal.

"Brother Donkey, you play at home first, I'll go out and buy some vegetables."

"Well, buy less, your sister Shirley and I don't have a lot of food, so don't spoil it if you can't finish it."

Lu Xiaolu nodded, just now he saw vegetables covered in cages on the table, his house probably doesn't have a refrigerator either.

About an hour later, Xiaobei came back on a tricycle, cut a catty of pork, a chicken, potatoes, celery, tomatoes and other vegetables, and a large bottle of Coke.

"Brother Donkey, I saw that you came by bicycle, so you didn't buy wine." Xiaobei said apologetically while holding down the vegetables.

"It's okay, go to my place to drink someday when you are free, no, you are not yet of age, so you can't drink."

Maybe because Xiaobei is more mature, Lu Xiaolu has always regarded him as his peers.

Shirley and Xiao Nan took the vegetarian dishes over, and Xiao Bei brought out a basin from the house, in which was a sea bass weighing two catties, which was still alive and kicking.

Lu Xiaolu frowned: "Why are you buying this, it's so expensive."

That catty of pork was 26, and the sea bass cost more than 70. Adding in other things, it was quite a burden for Xiaobei.

Instead of this, he might as well not come to eat this meal.

"I didn't buy it, brother donkey. I went to the sea to pick it up this morning. Fortunately, I have sharp eyes, otherwise it would have been picked up by someone else." Xiaobei showed a simple and honest smile.

"Then you keep it and sell it for money."

"Hell, when you can't make money, you can't miss this fish. Stay away, donkey brother, don't splash your blood." Xiaobei said and hit the perch on the head with a kitchen knife.

Well, it's all like this, and Lu Xiaolu no longer told him to keep it for sale.

After the dishes were cleaned up, Xiaobei put on his apron and started cooking. There was a gas stove in his house, so he didn't need to burn firewood.

Lu Xiaolu and Xueli wanted to help, but Xiaobei drove them out, saying that there was no reason to let the guests do it.

Well, people are small and big, and there are many rules.

Since they couldn't help with the kitchen, the two had no choice but to move the table out, and helped Xiao Nan out as well, so that it would be cooler outside.

Xiaobei has long taken on the important task of supporting his family, and has practiced a good cooking skill, and the guests and hosts enjoy the meal.

It's not good to go directly after eating, so Lu Xiaolu proposed to go to sea with Xiaobei.

Shirley chats with Xiao Nan at home.

"Okay." Xiaobei brought out a bucket of diesel oil from the house, and loaded the fishing nets and cages into the car.

"Later, little donkey brother, put this on." Xiao Nan waved to Lu Xiaolu with a smock with Zhengda food printed on it.

Xiaobei originally went to sea every morning, but he didn't go today because he was entertaining Lu Xiaolu. He just went to the beach for a while, and came back with a bass.

It's a little late to go now, but it's a little bit to be able to catch a little bit.

And Brother Xiaolu is a good fisherman, maybe he can learn a few tricks from him, did he know that Lu Xiaolu owns two boats.

It's just that I haven't seen him fishing with my own eyes, so I think he's just like those adults.

The two rode Xiaobei's tricycle to the beach where he parked his boat. His boat was a small sampan, much smaller than the Meili.

There were two people on the shore sorting the fishing nets, and when they saw them coming, they greeted them: "Xiaobei, why are you going out to sea now? Who is this?"

"Second uncle and second aunt, this is brother donkey."

"Brother donkey, this is my second uncle and aunt."

A middle-aged man greeted him and was about to take out a cigarette.

"Hello, hello, you are the boss who has been taking care of the Xiaobei brothers and sisters, thank you, it's not easy for them, and we can't help much."

Lu Xiaolu first took out Liqun and handed it over: "It's nothing, Xiao Nan works carefully, it should be."

"Xiaobei, why are you going to sea now? I'm afraid it's a waste of fuel." The middle-aged man hesitated for a while, but reminded Xiaobei.

"It's okay, Second Uncle, we didn't go far, and we just got the cage down." Xiaobei said while fueling the boat.

"OK then."

Lu Xiaolu was also helping with the net.

Xiaobei only had two gillnets, the 50-meter-long ones, and the quality was much worse than Lu Xiaolu's gillnets.

There are three ground cages, which are usually placed in the mangrove forest to catch blue crabs.

Xiaobei's sailing skills were even better than Lu Xiaolu's, and the boat was very stable.

Through chatting, I found out that Xiaobei's second uncle and aunt were very kind to the siblings, bringing over some food from time to time, and looking around for work for Xiaonan to mend fishing nets.

"When I'm rich, I'll be filial and filial to them." Xiaobei's immature face showed determination.

"There will be such a day." Lu Xiaolu squatted in front, looking at the phone from time to time. He had already thrown the crayfish into the water and was detecting it.

"stop!"

"What's the matter, brother donkey?" Xiao Bei was puzzled, but stopped the boat.
