Rebirth of Fishing Village: Starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Chapter 53

sunset.

The sky is full of rays of light.

Zhao Dahai went to the corner, took off the lid of a large bucket, and fished out several three-spot crabs and stone crabs.Yesterday, before pulling mussels, I took advantage of the ebb tide to step on the waterline and caught nearly 27 catties of crabs. The orchid crabs were sold to Liu Gang’s restaurant in the town as soon as I came back yesterday. The total weight is 60 catties, regardless of currency. The price is 630 yuan per catty, and it sold for [-] yuan. I got up two hours early and made a fortune and left a delicious meal. I am really happy.

Zhao Dahai walked into the kitchen with the three-spot crab and the stone crab. The three-spot crab is a kind of crab with three black spots on its shell. Needless to say, the stone crab is a common crab in reef areas. The common feature is that the price is not high. , I can't sell it for a few dollars, so I just leave it at home to eat.

Zhao Dahai washed the rice and put it in the pot to cook.There are many ways to cook crabs. They can be steamed or fried. One is to put a little oil in the pot without water, which means half-steamed and half-fried. Three-point crabs and stone crabs are washed and put into the pot, and the lid is covered. In a few minutes, a puff of water steamed up, and the fragrance was overwhelming. Immediately opened the lid, took the plate, picked up the crab and put it on top.

Zhao Dahai set up the table in the yard, packed the rice and served the dishes, and called his grandma Zhong Cuihua to sit down and eat together.

"grandmother!"

"The three o'clock crab is not bad."

"It's fat!"

Zhao Dahai took the largest three-pointed crab, which weighed half a catty, weighed it a bit, pressed his hand, it was definitely fat, broke off the pliers, grabbed the four claws of one end with one hand, and pressed the sharp corners with the other hand, and opened it. Remove the crab cover, clean the crab gills, and put it into Zhong Cuihua's bowl.

"Isn't it good to sell it?"

"When are we guarding the beach and don't have anything to eat?"

Zhong Cuihua shook her head.

"grandmother!"

"All the valuable orchid crabs are sold!"

"Keep these few for yourself to eat!"

Zhao Dahai picked up a stone crab, opened the crab cover, it was really fat, despite its small size, it was not as good as the three-spot crab, let alone the orchid crab, the shell was hard and not flattering, but the taste was absolutely Not bad, in the middle is a thumb-sized piece of salted egg yolk-like paste. It is amazing that a crab as big as three fingers has such a paste. I took the chopsticks, picked the paste and put it in Zhong Cuihua's bowl. This is a good thing.

Zhao Dahai finished his dinner, rested for a few minutes, and started walking to the back of the house with buckets of water. He has been busy with mussels for the past two days. His grandma helped him, but he also ignored the vegetable field. Time, it must be watered well, the sea wind is strong and dry, and the vegetable field must be watered well.

Midday on the moon.

Zhao Dahai sat on the edge of the ground, sweating profusely. The vegetable seedlings that had been removed from the ground all survived. Once watered, the water was fresh and green, and the beans and loofahs grew very fast. In a few days, they were more than ten centimeters high. It was [-] centimeters long. After thinking about it for a while, I didn't have too many things to do tomorrow, so I decided to chop bamboo to build a shelf.

Zhao Dahai rested for a while, and checked the fence that he had built a few days ago. It was not loose or falling down. Come in, definitely wiped out, very depressed.

Zhao Dahai took the bucket home and put all the mussel meat drying on the cement floor in front of the yard back home. Sometimes the dew was heavy on the beach at night, and the quality was affected by the wetness, so it was not easy to sell at a good price.

the next day.

Zhao Dahai got up early in the morning, cooked breakfast after five o'clock, and took out the leftover porridge to dry and leave the vegetables in the pot to heat up. After a while, grandma Zhong Cuihua woke up and could eat. I rushed to the town when I was young, bought some meat and vegetables, and then went to a hardware store to buy water pipes, glue, iron wire, nails, etc. When I got home, the sun had just risen and was less than a bamboo pole high.

Zhao Dahai saw that some of the mussels had been moved out to dry on the concrete floor in front of the yard, and knew that grandma was already up and busy with this matter, so he quickly set up the motorcycle, put down his things to help, and the two of them moved out in a while.

"You go about your business!"

"I can do it myself!"

Zhong Cuihua took a straw hat and put it on her head, and began to rummage through the dustpan and the mussel meat on the straw mat one by one.

Zhao Dahai walked to the motorcycle, took the meat and vegetables back to the kitchen, took the water pipes and glue into the yard, and started to work. The vegetable field needed more and more water, and it was time-consuming and laborious to carry water all day long. The faucet is very convenient. This is not a difficult thing, but the water pipe in the yard is cut off, and the one-way head and the two-way head are replaced with a three-way head, and then the water pipe is reconnected with glue.Those who can do these small things by themselves do it themselves. Hiring others, no matter how big or small the job is, costs at least 200 yuan a day. Doing it yourself saves money.

After Zhao Dahai connected the water pipe, the glue had to wait for a while before he could test the water. He didn't idle, picked up the machete and went up to the back hill of the village, chopped a bunch of finger-sized bamboo, cut off the branches and leaves, pulled the vines and tied them up. , carried the vegetable field back to the house, and began to build a shelf for the bean and loofah. I chose a suitable place in the middle of two or three beans or loofah. Three bamboos were gently inserted into the soil, leaving a third of the top to rest Tie them together with the thin wire you just bought. This kind of tripod is very stable, and the general sea breeze can't blow it at all.After setting up all the shelves, the loofahs and beans that grew about ten centimeters long were all tied to the bamboo with small wires.

"The sea."

"Take a break."

Zhao Dahai looked up and saw grandma Zhong Cuihua walking over with a kettle and a bowl, only to realize that the sun had risen to the very center of the sky before he knew it, and it was almost twelve o'clock.

Zhao Dahai poured a bowl of water, drank it in one gulp, pointed to the faucet of the water pipe that had just been pulled, remembering that he hadn’t tested the water yet, so he ran back to the yard and turned on the faucet, and checked along the water pipe. The soft water pipe bought together in the morning went back to the vegetable field and connected to the faucet, leading it into the vegetable field.

"grandmother!"

"When watering the ground, just pull the water pipe!"

"No more buckets to carry it."

"Convenient!"

Zhao Dahai pulled the hose and watered the ground again.I am young and strong, and it is no problem to carry water in the yard, but it is impossible to stay at home every day, and I always go fishing to make money or something. Grandma Zhong Cuihua, who is sure to water the vegetable field, helps, which is convenient and labor-saving.

"This is good!"

"Watering is convenient and labor-saving!"

Zhong Cui walked around the cauliflower field, touched the triangular frame and the lush green vegetables, and pulled out a few young grasses that had grown.

"The sea!"

"There is land here. Another day, you can get some fruit trees that we can grow here and plant them."

After Zhong Cuihua finished watching the vegetable field, she walked back to Zhao Dahai, and gestured at the field behind the house. There were still many empty fields.

"Row!"

"Buy some seedlings and plant bananas. This thing is very wild. After planting it for a year or two, there will be something to eat."

Zhao Dahai nodded with a smile. The vegetable field is big enough and there is no need to open it. It is empty and wasteful, so we have to plant something.

"What kind of banana?"

"How much of this stuff can I, an old lady, eat?"

"Get something else that grows fruit."

Zhong Cuihua shook her head.

"Row!"

"no problem!"

"In a few days, when I go to the town, I will buy some long fruits and plant them. I will prepare them for my great-grandchildren to eat!"

Zhao Dahai immediately reacted.

When Zhong Cuihua heard this, she kept nodding her head, smiling even on the wrinkles on her face.
