Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982 Chapter 256

  Chapter 256 The eyes are bulging

  There are not many hooks left, Ye Huimei practice makes perfect, fishing along the line, except for the occasional empty hooks, most of the remaining hooks are toad fish, she despises and removes the hooks.

   "Why are there so many toadfish? Most of them are them, and we can't catch them all."

   "It's winter, isn't it because there are a lot of toads? Don't you also eat delicious?"

   "You can eat it, but it doesn't stop me from thinking it's ugly!"

   "Let's save a little more at night and go back to dry the dried toad fish. Make a little more of the current year's products. I won't go to sea in the first month, and have a good New Year at home."

   There are no hard bones on the body of toad fish. After being dried in the sun, the fish bones are very crispy, and the ugliness does not affect its delicious taste.

In fact, he still wants to dry some dried mackerel, but considering that mackerel is worth two to three cents now, it is better to sell it. This kind of clam fish that costs a few cents is used to dry and keep it for eating. don't feel bad.

  Ye Mu nodded, "Okay, life is better this year, you can save more, don't be so tight, the 200 catties that were dried last time, only more than 30 catties after drying, not much for a cent."

   "Then I won't sell this fish today, let's use it to dry, there are not many, and sell the few baskets of valuable fish."

Today I received 5 baskets of clam fish, 2 baskets of mackerel, half a basket of flounder, and a basket of mixed fish, such as sole fish, flat fish, black snapper, devil fish, etc., and a few other good fish, The most gratifying thing is the giant cobia.

  The big yellow croaker died when it came ashore, but the two groupers were still swimming well in the bucket, and today's longline fishing harvest was not bad, but there was no time to put in a few more hooks or trawl the net.

   I don't know if all the boats trawling the net today have exploded.

  After receiving all the fishing lines in the basket, he and Mother Ye carried the baskets to the corner to stack them, saving space.

  Father Ye also went to sail back. It was already past two o'clock this time. If he returned to the dock, it would probably be past three o'clock.

  Ye Yaodong's bare legs were freezing cold, the hairs on his legs were standing on end, covered with goose bumps, it was too much of a pain, but it also made him remember, and he will have to bring an extra set of clothes when he goes out to sea.

  With his father driving the boat, he sat by the stove again, lifting his legs up to warm himself by the fire.

  There are no boats on the way back. The weather is good today, and the sun is just setting to the west. It will be a while before we go down the mountain, and we can catch another net. It is estimated that the fishing boats are not so fast.

  Ye Huimei looked at this basket, looked at that basket, and then ran to the corner to look through the sacks, with a smile on her face, so excited that she came over after a while.

   "Third Brother, shall we come out to explore the sea again on the next first day?"

   "Too full? The home is too comfortable, or is there no sea breeze? It's cold, don't stay at home, and want to run to an isolated island, the cold wind will blow you to death." Ye Yaodong said angrily.

   "Only once in a while, and I don't go every other day or two. I play occasionally, it's fine."

   "It's okay to blow it up occasionally...Look at my face, it's only been a few months, and it's changed from a white face to an authentic fisherman's face."

  Ye Huimei looked at her third brother's appearance that had changed drastically in just a few months. His face, which had been blown black and red by the sea breeze, suddenly felt a little distressed compared to the white tenderness before.

  Her third brother has been used to it since he was a child. At most, he would be naughty and tan himself in summer, but he soon returned to nothing. He really hasn't been sunburned like he is now, and he looks old.

  He has really worked hard in the past few months.

But she didn't say anything provocative, but hit him mischievously, "Ahaha...It's okay, it's not as good as Dad, he is a real fisherman's face, you are almost there, you need to continue to work hard, so take me to chant."

  Ye Yaodong gave her a blank look, "If you go to sea a few more times, you will be like me."

   "Humph..."

  She shrugged her nose and snorted a few times, then turned her head and shouted at her mother unwillingly: "Mother..."

   "What are you doing?"

   "Hey... We didn't dig too many shelled ones today, and the rocks are densely packed. At the beginning of next month, let's ask the third brother to bring us there again, otherwise the New Year's goods will not be dried."

  Mother Ye nodded in agreement, "I have to do it again, I didn't pry much today, half a sack, and I can't dig much meat."

  Ye Yaodong stares blankly at the side, the stinky girl will call for help.

   "Dongzi, bring us here again in a while, let's take advantage of the year before and let's get some more exposure..."

"It's almost enough. Why do you have so many? Didn't you have leftovers before? There are still so many dried fish. After the first month is over and the weather is warmer, I can take you out to sea in time. Why do you have to go in the cold weather now? Then The island is so windy..."

  Mother Ye interrupted him, "Just come again next month, and it won't delay your business. You can pick us up and put us on the island. We can dig it ourselves. There is no need for you to do anything."

   "It's true that this year will be more exposed. Ah Guang has no mother, and there is no woman in the family. When the time comes, I will send more exposure. Your sister will marry his family a few years ago..."

  Speaking of this, Ye Yaodong had nothing to say, "Okay, okay, if there is no wind and waves on the first day of next month, and if there is good weather, I will bring you here."

"Um."

  After Ye Hui's beautiful goal was achieved, she raised her eyebrows at him proudly. Ye Yaodong gave her a big roll of his eyes, and continued to warm up.

   When the fishing boat was approaching the pier, he put on his pants that were not so wet, and made a living.

  At this moment, the tide is high, and the fishing boat is directly docked. Ye Yaodong and Ye's father first carried the toad fish to be kept on the cart, and let Ye Huimei watch.

   Ah Cai sat at the door and watched the father and son carry it. He was a little surprised. He looked at the sky and his watch. Isn't it only early three o'clock?

   "Is it windy? Why did you come back so early? There are so many people going today?"

   "There is no wind, and the trawling boat has not docked yet?"

   "Yes, you are the first to land, what goods do you have today? Are these toad fish to be kept for drying?"

   "Yes, the weather is good recently and I plan to save some more for the New Year. There are other things on board, wait a while."

After Ye Yaodong and Father Ye moved all the goods they were going to save onto the cart, they then went to carry other fish goods. Baskets and baskets of fish goods were carried to Ah Cai's purchase point, and then they carried cobia and ashes. The bamboo basket of the mako shark immediately caught Ah Cai's eyes.

   "Such a big cobia? This is a giant cobia. It's ok. Sure enough, there are big fish in strong winds and waves. Are there any big ones behind?"

   "There are no more big fish."

   "Huh?" Ah Cai was a little puzzled, "No more? That's all? The waves on the sea have been rolling for two days, and this is all you have gained? Then you came back so early?"

   "What's the hurry, there are no big fish, there are others, wait."

   After Ye Yaodong finished speaking, he went out with his father. A Cai was also curious about what else was there, and followed him to the shore. Seeing that they carried another basket from the boat, he stretched his neck to have a look.

   "Damn it, little Qinglong!"

  He was pleasantly surprised and surprised, "There are not many! How did you catch it, this thing is on the coral reef under the sea, so it's not easy to catch."

   "Good luck today, you help us get it in, this is not heavy, there are other goods on board, etc..."

  A Cai took the basket in his hand, and cursed, "Made, you told me you didn't have it before, and now you still have it. Are you kidding me?"

   "Ask if there are any big fish? Didn't I tell you there are no big fish?"

  Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes, and then continued to carry on the boat.

In fact, Ah Cai just underestimated a few words and complained. He moved the bamboo basket containing the little green dragons to the purchase point. Extra big bags come in.

   Put down the crayfish in his hand quickly, and asked curiously: "What is this? Shells? You have scoured the sea today, and there is no trawl net? No wonder so many people went, and the fish stock has shrunk severely."

   While talking, he stretched out his hand to untie the straw rope tied on the sack, and stretched out his head to look, but his eyes widened in shock, "Ah? Damn, abalone? This sack is all abalone?"

  Ye Yaodong ignored his noise, and walked further outside with Father Ye.

   "Damn it, do you have any more on board?" A Cai stared at their backs, a little unbelievable that they dug so many abalones back?

  When was abalone so easy to catch? So flooded?

  Aren't these all reefs living on the bottom of the sea? Where did it come from, so powerful? There is more than one sack, no wonder it landed early today, and the front is still wondering.

  Damn it!

  He quickly followed, and when the father and son had just lifted the goods ashore from the boat, he hurried to help take over.

  After carrying three and a half bags of abalone ashore, Ah Cai couldn't close his mouth with joy, and quickly asked, "Is there any more? Is there any more?"

   "No more, it's all here. This bag contains large conch and abalone. I have to pour it out and pick it out. The other two and a half bags are all ready."

   "Did you poke abalone's nest? Why are there so many?"

   "It's a hidden reef. A hidden reef suddenly appeared in the sea, covered with abalones..." Before he could say anything, Mother Ye crackled excitedly.

  Ah Cai's eyes were almost popping out, "Damn it, can you meet such a good thing as Tamad?"

  Ye Yaodong looked at his mother's beaming face, talking and gesticulating excitedly. He kept describing how big the abalone was, and the reef was covered with it. They only dug half of it, what a pity...

   It's quite an exaggeration... Obviously, almost 2/3 of them have been dug...

  He couldn't help but touch his forehead...Middle-aged woman...Finally saw what it means to spread rumors...

   Actually, he was not afraid to tell Ah Cai that the hidden reef had sunk back into the sea anyway. If he didn't say anything, the villagers might discuss and speculate even more after they knew about it.

He interrupted his mother's words and added: "We accidentally encountered a submerged reef in the sea this morning. It is probably the cause of the earthquake a few days ago. The submerged reef is covered with dense abalones and conchs. It is a pity. It didn't surface for long, and we didn't dig much before it sank again..."

   "Little Qinglong was also caught near the hidden reef, but unfortunately it ran too fast. I just used a hand-made net to catch a net, and the rest ran away."

   "Grass, all good things have happened to you, no wonder you came back so early."

   "It's not that easy to dig, and my feet are swollen. Well, quickly pick out the goods in the sack and weigh them, or you won't be too busy when all the fishing boats come in."

   I went to dinner in the evening, and I came back late, and I still have a chapter to write
