Chapter 47

Xu Haibao, who once again borrowed a boat to go out to sea with four live lobsters and trophies caught under the reef of Shrimp Island, also embarked on a journey back to the village.Xu Qingya, who went out to sea with her these days, has already admired her brother's diving skills from the bottom of her heart.

From the very beginning, he was worried that something might happen to Xu Haibao, who had been submerged in the sea for a long time and hadn't shown his head.Up to now, Xu Qingya has been able to calmly sit on the boat or the island, waiting for Xu Haibao to suddenly emerge from the sea.

During the period of returning to the village, Xu Qingya also truly witnessed and recognized Xu Haibao's diving skills.Previously, she had only seen on the Internet that someone could dive into the bottom of the sea to catch live lobsters. This time, she finally witnessed with her own eyes that Xu Haibao also has this skill.

Most importantly, most of those who dive and catch live lobsters online have to carry oxygen cylinders to stay underwater for a long time.But every time Xu Haibao free dives, sometimes he doesn't need to come out of the water for half an hour to take a breath.

Xu Qingya was deeply shocked by this heaven-defying breath-holding skill, and finally believed that with this diving skill, Xu Haibao could indeed dive into the bottom of the sea and salvage the sunken ship that sank in this sea area in the early years.

Looking at today's harvest, Xu Qingya also smiled and said, "Brother, can we have a big meal tonight?"

"Of course you can! Don't you want to eat those big groupers at home? When we get home, let's steam the big ones in the evening, and invite the third uncle and the third aunt. We also steam two lobsters. Let you eat enough, okay?"

"Huh! You said it nicely, so why didn't you steam it a few days ago? You have to wait for your parents to come before steaming. You're obviously biased!"

When the brothers and sisters returned to the village, they naturally went fishing at Huiyinyan.However, the villagers still don't know much about what the two brothers and sisters have gained.All I know is that the two brothers and sisters seem to like fishing and going out to sea.

Xu Qingya has undoubtedly been greedy for a long time for the grouper that is kept in the fish box behind her house.Even if Xu Haibao steamed a small toothbrush from time to time, Xu Qingya still felt dissatisfied, and kept clamoring to steam a big one to eat as much as she could.

But in Xu Haibao's view, no matter how delicious something is, if you eat it too often, you will get tired of it one day.What's more, the big groupers kept in the fish box were actually what Xu Haibao planned to send into the city and hand them over to Donghua Restaurant for sale.

But in fact, Xu Haibao took out the fish that he used to eat every time from the Wumingzhu space.When killing the fish, Xu Haibao just changed the fish.Otherwise, the smell of steamed fish probably wouldn't make Xu Qingya so obsessed with it.

When the two brothers and sisters returned to the fishing village wharf, Xu Liyan, who had just returned home but was not idle, also came to help.Seeing that the two brothers and sisters actually went to Xiadao to play, they looked somewhat unhappy.

Xu Qingya, who could see this from her father's face, immediately took the spoils of the brothers and sisters and said fawningly: "Dad, look, this is the lobster that my brother and I caught on Xiadao. There are four of them! Today We can eat enough tonight!"

Facing his daughter's coquettish and flattering expression, Xu Liyan could only say helplessly: "You! You are so big and so greedy! Okay, you go home first, and I will come back after finishing the work in hand .”

Seeing that his father didn't lose his temper on the spot, Xu Haibao also breathed a sigh of relief.Even if he came back from rebirth, Xu Haibao still felt a little guilty when facing his father when he was angry.And the purchase of the homestead this time seems to have really annoyed my father.

After all, when my father went to the city to buy a house, he begged his father to borrow money from his grandma, and even with his own savings for many years, he managed to settle down in the city.But just after Xu Haibao was discharged from the army, he actually spent 20 yuan to buy that kind of abandoned homestead.

This kind of behavior is undoubtedly a very prodigal behavior for Xu Liyan, who has been frugal all his life!
In order for my father to understand and not be angry, I think I need to do more work.With this idea in mind, Xu Haibao deliberately found Xu Mingcheng who was working as a supervisor on the construction site, and said with a smile, "Uncle Cheng, come to my house for a drink tonight!"

The sudden invitation made Xu Mingcheng somewhat guess that Xu Haibao wanted him to be a peacemaker.To be honest, the village really did not do this properly.After all, in the eyes of many people, no one would want to give away the abandoned homestead for free.

But Xu Haibao paid 20 yuan to buy it from the village committee at a sky-high price.Without Xu Haibao's 20 yuan, it is estimated that the pier in the village may not be able to be rebuilt in a few years.

Not to mention, there are still sidewalks in the village that are still being repaired, and there are street lights that have already been installed.Although Xu Liyan didn't say anything before, how could Xu Mingcheng, as the village head and someone who came here, fail to guess Xu Haibao's intentions!
He laughed and joked, "Why? Afraid that your father will beat you? I told you earlier that you must consider the consequences clearly. When I signed the agreement with you, I reminded you that it is best to discuss this matter with your father. But you said it’s okay, now you know how powerful it is?”

"Uncle Cheng, you have to be conscientious in life! Without my money to buy the land, you can't do what you are doing now, right? I have two bottles of good wine in my house. Why don't you come to my house for dinner with Uncle Yu in the evening. You and I Dad, haven't we been together for a long time?"

With Xu Haibao's words, Xu Mingcheng finally smiled and said: "Okay, since your kid sincerely invites me to drink with A Yu, then after work is over, we will go to your house to ask for a drink. To be honest, the lobster I also want to drink." I have been hungry for a long time!"

After getting Xu Mingcheng's promise, Xu Haibao didn't stay at the pier too much.It stands to reason that Xu Haibao should also come to help with these projects in the village.But the problem is that helpers need to be paid.

If Xu Haibao didn't take the money, what would the other villagers think?If Xu Haibao takes wages, what will the villagers think?It is obviously contradictory to even pay 20 yuan, and still earn this kind of wages of tens of yuan a day!
Thinking of the end, Xu Haibao finally gave up his job as a helper, and instead spent more time on going to sea with his younger sister.Taking advantage of this period of time, the villagers didn't go fishing very much, so Xu Haibao also visited the islands.

Even the situation of each uninhabited island, he can feel it very clearly.Sometimes, in order to take some shots at dusk on a certain island, he and Xu Qingya would stay there until dusk before returning.

Sometimes in order to take pictures of the sunrise, the two brothers and sisters would get up early and go out to sea before dawn like fishing.This kind of experience also felt very exciting to Xu Qingya, and at the same time felt very motivated.

Through the hard work during this period, Xu Qingya has taken beautiful pictures about the island style, which is undoubtedly a lot more than before.Every time I post some new pictures, it will attract the envy and amazement of those travel enthusiasts.

Attracted by these beautiful island landscapes, there seems to be a lot of interest in the Internet about Fulin Island and surrounding islands.There are more tourists and donkey friends who come here to travel than before.

This also means that the number of tourists arriving at Fulin Island for the first time after the year may be more than the two siblings expected.Fortunately, the number of tourists who came here together should not be many, and those who came here in the early stage should be those senior island fans.

After all, based on the pictures taken by Xu Qingya alone, many tourists feel dubious.Only the first tourists came here to witness the real existence of these pictures.Then Xu Haibao shouldn't have to wait too long for the arrival of the next batch of tourists.

As long as word of mouth is opened, Xu Haibao believes that as the climate continues to rise and the weather continues to get warmer, tourists who come to Fulin Island to see the island style here will continue to come from all over the country.

When the two brothers and sisters came home and saw that there was no one in the house, Xu Qingya was also very surprised and said: "Our door is open, why didn't I see my mother? She packed up her things, where did she go?"

"You're stupid! It's been a long time since Mom and Third Aunt, she must have been a guest at Third Aunt's house. Go find Mom, and I'll tidy up dinner for tonight. Uncle Cheng and Uncle Yu will come over for dinner tonight, by the way Call Third Aunt as well."

"Okay! Brother, remember, you must steam a large grouper tonight. Otherwise, I won't be able to eat a few pieces when there are too many people. If you work hard, you will be the chef for the dinner tonight." , give you a chance to please mom?"

"Damn girl, you're too embarrassed! After being home for so long, how many times have you been in the kitchen? Open your mouth every day for dinner. If you're so lazy, be careful that you won't get married in the future. With your little cooking skills, you won't be afraid of starving your husband and children in the future." ?"

"Cut! What era is it? Who said that marrying a husband must be a good cook? Didn't you read it online? Now it's popular for men to lead the inside and women to lead the outside. Your sister and I will be the big bosses in the future." , I don’t want to cook and wash clothes every day!”

Ignoring Xu Haibao's digging, even Xu Qingya pulled out such fallacies in a high-sounding manner.But if you think about it carefully, the situation Xu Qingya mentioned is also very common in families formed by young people in today's society.

In the final analysis, the way of thinking of modern people has changed a lot from that of Xu Haibao's parents.For many girls, it doesn't matter whether she can cook or not, what matters is whether she can support herself.

Thinking of this, Xu Haibao suddenly felt that if he wanted to find a girlfriend in the future, he really had to think carefully.After all, it's okay to cook a meal once in a while, but if he really wants to stay at home and be a housewife every day, he might go crazy too!
