Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982

  Chapter 334 Raise a few chickens and ducks

   Several people happily carried all the goods onto the boat, and Ye Yaodong piled the goods dug and picked up by his father-in-law and mother-in-law to a corner alone.

   "These you pick up by yourself, you can take them back, or what you want to sell them for, you can see for yourself."

   "We'll take the shelled ones back. You can take the squids and sell them together. They're all from your own family..." Father Lin said with a smile.

   "No, we've already caught so many baskets, and you guys keep them by yourself. That bag should weigh more than a hundred catties, and it can be sold for about 30 yuan, which is a lot."

  Mother Lin couldn't close her mouth with a smile, "So much? You can earn so much after just working for a day."

   "It's not possible to go to sea every day. From the beginning of the year to now, we can count the number of times we have gone to sea with our fingers, and it also depends on luck."

Ye Yaodong started the boat while talking, but he felt that the tide was a bit shallow. He propped the long bamboo pole against the rocks on the shore, stretched it slightly, and then drove the boat to the other side of the small island, preparing to take Ah Zheng Xiaoxiao with him. Call, let's go back together.

   I don’t know how many squid they caught in the middle of the afternoon? Up to this time, I have not come to find them, and I am still working.

   When he just steered the boat away from the shore, they also drove over.

   "Are you willing to come here? I thought I had to call you in the past, so you were willing to go back."

  After the two boats approached, Xiao Xiao stretched his head to look at their harvest, and asked: "Isn't it because I wasted some time in the afternoon and wanted to cast two more nets, how much did you catch?"

   "I picked up two baskets in the early morning, divided up one and a half baskets, and caught 6 baskets by myself. It was a big loss. Those who were delayed by the father and son missed several nets, otherwise they could add a few more baskets."

  A Zheng also said: "Isn't it? We didn't dare to rest all afternoon, we all wanted to hurry up and catch a few more nets. Now our arms are so sore that we can hardly lift them up. We are exhausted."

   "Fortunately, there is compensation, let's go back first, it's too late, let's talk about it when we go back."

   "Yes, go back first, go back first..."

  The two boats moved forward at the same time, and from time to time they moved forward and backward.

   There were quite a few fishing boats eager to catch a few more nets. When they approached the shore, the surrounding sky had already darkened. Many boats on the sea had just returned, and all of them had their headlights on.

  Lin's father and Lin's mother didn't keep the bag of squid, they sold all of them, how could they be willing to carry it back to eat? It's worth dozens of dollars.

  After the whole family sold the goods, they all went home beaming. They were exhausted, but they disappeared without a trace after the goods were sold and the money was collected.

  Mother Ye has been waiting at home, and when she sees them coming back, she goes up to meet them.

   "How is the harvest today? How many loads have you collected? Are your in-laws okay?"

   "The harvest was very good. We picked up a sack of squid on the island, and the price was reduced and we could sell it for more than 35 yuan. It's just that going to sea is really tiring. Go out in the dark and come back in the dark."

   "It's like this. It's not bad to sell it for 30 yuan. In the past, people trawl nets for 30, 40, 40, 50 yuan a day. Go and wash your hands quickly, eat first, and talk while eating."

   "Hey, okay..."

  Mother Ye saw Ye Yaodong brought two sacks of goods off the cart, went over to look at it again, and said in surprise, "Do you still have time to dig this?"

   "My mother-in-law dug it by the way. A Yuan also went to the mountain to pick up a bucket of seabird eggs. You take them in and boil them for nothing..."

   "Huh? Ah Yuan, you even picked up seabird eggs!"

   "Wow, there are seabird eggs!"

   "Show me, show me..."

   "How much did you pick up?"

"so many!"

   "Ah, why did you pick up so many seabird eggs?"

  Before Ye Yaodong finished speaking, the group of children surrounding Lin Guangyuan who was talking next to him rushed over excitedly, wanting to see seabird eggs, and they were all very envious.

   "Third Uncle, when will you take us there?"

   "Yes, Dad, we also want to dig out seabird nests..."

   "Yes, yes, third uncle..."

   "Go, go, don't get in the way here, I'm exhausted, I'm going to eat." Ye Yaodong looked at the children in front of him, their heads growing big.

   "Third Uncle, you can't be biased..."

   "Eccentricity of your head, eccentricity, why don't you ask your father to take you there? Go away, and if you keep arguing with me, you won't have a share in cooking seabird eggs later."

   "You didn't pick this egg!" Ye Chenghu muttered.

  The others also nodded, their little eyes peeking at him.

  Ye Yaodong knocked Ye Chenghu on the head, "What if I didn't pick it up? Lin Guangyuan took my boat, and I didn't charge him the boat fare. This bucket of eggs is just right for honoring my sister-in-law and uncle."

  Lin Guangyuan rolled his eyes, "Then take me there at night, and I'll pick up some more."

"are not you tired?"

   "I'm not tired, I'm a dragon again when I wake up!"

  Mother Ye smiled and said, "Go in and have dinner first, you guys don't make noise, I'll cook a seabird egg for each of you."

   "Yes, yes~"

  Everyone cheered.

  When Ye Yaodong was about to enter the house, he saw a small nest in the corner of the door, and there were a few fluffy chicks in it. He was a little surprised, "When did they hatch?"

   No wonder when I just came back, I saw a group of children gathered around and thought they were playing something new.

"It hatched a few days ago. Your grandma took care of it at home and let the hen take care of it for a few days. Later, I thought about bringing the hen and chicks over to raise it. It happened that 15 hatched and came out. There are five chickens in the family. Tomorrow, we will mark the chicks’ feet and put them together to raise them. I will send your aunt 10 more eggs, and 7 hatched, and I will keep it for myself.”

  Ye Yaodong nodded, "Is there anyone who can catch ducks? Help me catch a few more ducks. It's right by the beach, and it's convenient to stock them."

   There are a few chickens and ducks in front of and behind the house, which is not bad. It is better to marinate sea duck eggs. The oily egg yolk is full of salty fragrance, and it is better to serve with porridge.

  Thinking about it makes him feel very beautiful, and he can kill one whenever he wants to eat it!

   "Then I have to ask."

  Mother Lin interrupted after hearing this: "I want to raise ducks. The ducks at home are about to hatch, and it has been about 20 days. I will send you a few by then."

   "That's too troublesome, it's so far away, let's ask in the village first."

   "No trouble, no trouble."

  After they all entered the house for dinner, a group of children began to gather around the corner to look at the little chicken, and touched it with their hands from time to time.

  As soon as Ye Mu put the seabird eggs into the pot, she went to the door and shouted: "Don't catch it, don't crush it to death, and don't touch it, if you touch it, it won't grow big."

   Seeing that none of them had ears, Mother Ye drove them away, "You all go to play, don't get in the way here, the chicks and hens are going back to their cages."

   If you touch it again, you will really die a few.

   "Are the seabird eggs ready?"

   "What's the hurry, I'm either thinking about playing or eating all day long!"

   "Why not?"

   "Have you done your homework?"

  In an instant, a group of people fell silent.

   "You said that you are one by one. After coming back for such a long time, you didn't do your homework. You just played there. It was getting dark. Your mother also went to sea recently. No one cares about you, and you don't do your homework..."

  Mother Ye started a new round of nagging.

  The children were not afraid of her, they were thick-skinned, and started laughing and joking again.

   Anyway, grandma doesn't hit people.

  Mother Lin also laughed and said: "The grandchildren of our family are also like this. They are either thinking about eating or playing all day long. Ask them to go up the mountain to pick a fruit and run more actively than anyone else. Ask them to work and they will disappear."

  Father Lin also said: "Children are playful, it's normal, how can we expect them to go to college and know a few words, just don't be like us who don't know a few big characters."

"That is…"

   No update at night, don't wait. The new year is updated irregularly in the past few days
