Chapter 7: Selling Seafood and Encountering the Principal

The two hurried back to the village, and A-Ying's sister-in-law helped Lu Chaoyi carry the bucket to her door.

"Hurry up and pack up, I'll call you when I get back and bring my things." ”

"Got it, thank you, sister-in-law. ”

"No thanks. Sister-in-law Ah Ying carried her bucket and hurried home.

When Lu Chaoyi got home, Grandma Lu had already gotten up and was making breakfast. Hearing the movement of opening the door, Grandma Lu came out and saw Lu Chaoyi.

"Ayi, why did you come back so early today?"

"Grandma, I caught a big fish, and it's still alive. I'll have to take it to the market, or the money won't be worth much. ”

Lu Chaoyi changed the fish and snails into the water tank, launched the car and carried the water tank to the car, and Grandma Lu also came to help.

"Yo, how did you catch such a big perch? You didn't go to the sea, did you? You didn't get hurt, did you?"

Seeing a large perch with eight or nine catties in the water tank, Grandma Lu was worried about Lu Chaoyi for the first time.

"Grandma, I didn't go to the sea. When the waves hit the shore, I saw it and threw myself down and held it down. I'm not hurt either, you don't have to worry. Lu Chaoyi said while adding seawater to the water tank.

"It was Sister-in-law Aying who brought it back for me. Grandma, don't talk about it, Sister-in-law Aying is still waiting for me. I'll go first. ”

Lu Chaoyi pushed himself and walked out, and Grandma Lu chased after him.

"Ayi, your clothes are wet, take your clothes first. ”

"No, grandma, it's hot and it dries out quickly. ”

It's important to sell fish, and when you come back, you can take a shower and change your clothes.

"Otherwise, I'll get the fish and sell it at home. ”

Grandma Lu was not at ease.

"No, grandma, I'll go, you stay at home and make breakfast, I want to eat stuffed salted fish with porridge, grandma, you can make it for me." ”

Grandma Lu's health is not completely well, so Lu Chaoyi can rest assured that she will ride a bicycle to sell fish.

"Ayi, okay. ”

It happened that A-Ying's sister-in-law called her at this time.

"Come on, sister-in-law Aying, I'll come right away. ”

"Grandma, I'll go first. ”

Lu Chaoyi stepped on the bicycle and rode away, and Grandma Lu kept shouting to be careful in the back.

"Sister-in-law A-Ying, what are you bringing so much?" Lu Chaoyi asked when he saw A-Ying's bicycle carrying two water tanks.

"Last night, your brother Hai and his father went to catch some crabs at night, and I happened to sell them together. ”

Sister-in-law A Ying was in a good mood with a smile on her face. Last night, Lu Chaohai and Lu Chaohai's father, Lu Jianguo, went to catch crabs at night, and the harvest was good. Crabs are valuable and can be sold for a lot of money, so Ah Ying's sister-in-law is happy.

The sea is rich in products, and as long as the fishermen are diligent, there will always be a harvest no matter how much they have.

The market is by the sea, not far from the village, ten minutes by bike, and the sister-in-law is there quickly.

A Ying's sister-in-law came to sell seafood almost every day, and Lu Chaoyi also followed A Ying's sister-in-law these days after she came. The sister-in-law and sister-in-law walked with the cart and greeted the people around them. The seafood sold at the market is carried out by fishermen from the village and nearby villages. The fishing villages by the sea intermarry each other, and most of them know each other.

"A-Ying, did you come early today, did you get any good goods?"

On the side, a woman about the same age as A Ying's sister-in-law asked Ah Ying's sister-in-law.

"No matter how early you are, Sister-in-law Aqiu, you must have gained good goods. ”

Sister-in-law A Ying said with a smile, and was about to walk over to see, but Sister-in-law A Qiu hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No, no, just a few catties of conch, how can there be any good goods." ”

Sister-in-law A Ying didn't go over to see it, Lu Chaoyi followed Sister-in-law A Ying to watch her greet others, and Lu Chaoyi silently wrote people down in his heart.

After finding a vacant lot, the aunt and sister-in-law untied the water tank and moved it on, just then they heard a roaring sound, and a three-legged cat cart drove to the outside of the market and stopped, it was the owner who came to collect seafood.

The sound stopped, and after a while, three young men got out of the car and walked over.

The owners who come to collect the seafood are also regular customers, and almost all the fishermen who come to sell seafood know them, and they have beckoned the three young men to see their seafood. The three of them approached Lu Chaoyi and recognized one of the young men.

"Brother Yang. ”

When the three approached, Lu Chaoyi hurriedly called someone.

Hearing Lu Chaoyi call someone, A-Ying's sister-in-law touched her elbow and Lu Chaoyi asked.

"Ayi, do you know them?"

"My family used to sell seafood to them before. Lu Chaoyi explained, half-truth, didn't mention Lu Jianmin, and A-Ying's sister-in-law thought that Lu's father had sold seafood when he was there.

The young man Lu Chaoyi knew was Yang Qihua, the eldest son of the owner of the trial building.

"Ah Hua, did someone call you?" the tall young man among the three touched Yang Qihua and asked.

Yang Qihua followed the sound and quickly recognized the little girl who Uncle Jianmin had taken to the Xian Xian Building to sell seafood. Because Boss Yang mentioned in person that day that he would ask Lu Chaoyi to sell seafood and look for Yang Qihua, Yang Qihua made a special note of people, so he recognized Lu Chaoyi when he saw him.

Yang Qihua walked over.

"Is that you?"

"It's me. Brother Yang, are you here to collect seafood?"

Lu Chaoyi asked with a smile. Brother Xiao Yang is also a person with a good personality and amiable words.

"yes. Haven't you caught any good goods lately? My dad asked about you two days ago. ”

"It's still a closed season, you can't go out to sea to fish, and you don't have any good catches. But I caught a big sea bass this morning, and my sister-in-law also caught some crabs, Brother Yang, take a look, see if it's enough for your standards. ”

Lu Chaoyi specially learned about it, and knew that the tasting building was already a very high-end seafood restaurant in their Zhou market, and the tasting building was a little standard for accepting seafood, not everything.

"Okay, then look at your bass and crabs. ”

The thinner of the other two lads who spoke. Lu Chaoyi hurriedly opened the lid of the water tank that had not been opened, and Ah Ying's sister-in-law was not slow, and hurriedly opened both of her water tanks. In addition to crabs, there are also many snails with wrong heads in Ah Ying's water tank.

The three of them squatted and looked at them one by one, Lu Chaoyi's only the perch was up to standard, and they didn't want the rest of the conch. Sister-in-law Aying's crabs and conch sizes were all picked up, leaving only the small ones.

"These are all qualified, and we all have them. ”

"Okay, okay, thank you, Boss Xiaoyang. Sister-in-law Ah Ying smiled from ear to ear.

Lu Chaoyi's perch has nine catties and six taels, and he counted nine catties and five taels. Sold for nearly two hundred dollars. Lu Chaoyi took the money and hurriedly thanked him.

"Thank you, Brother Yang. ”

"We come almost every day to harvest seafood, and if you have good food to leave for us, the price will not be disadvantaged to you. ”

"Eh, okay, there are good things left for you in the future. Thank you, Boss Xiaoyang. ”

Sister-in-law A Ying hurriedly responded. If you catch the owner of the seafood restaurant, you won't have to worry about selling good goods in the future. The three of them bought fish and crabs from their sisters-in-law, and they continued to look for goods. Seeing them leave, the sister-in-law and sister-in-law looked at each other, and their eyes were happy.

The sister-in-law's seafood was fresh and good, and they were very happy when it was sold at a good price.

"Today is really thanks to Ayifu, and my sister-in-law's crabs are sold for a good price. Sister-in-law A Ying had a bright smile on her face, the joy and happiness of the harvest. Lu Chaoyi looked at A-Ying's sister-in-law, and she also smiled.

"It's also thanks to my sister-in-law, if it weren't for my sister-in-law, you would not have met them. ”

If it weren't for Ah Ying's sister-in-law, she might still be digging conch at the beach.

"It's our Ayi who are blessed. Sister-in-law A Ying stubbornly thought that it was because of Lu Chaoyi, and Lu Chaoyi couldn't fight with her, so she didn't fight anymore.

Nowadays, the people are not rich, and ordinary people will not buy crabs with no meat when they buy seafood. If this crab is not sold to a restaurant, it will not be sold at a good price. There were a lot of crabs in the market, and some of them didn't sell them.

Because of this, Ah Ying's sister-in-law thinks that it is the blessing of Tuolu Chaoyi.

This large amount of good goods has been sold, and Lu Chaoyi still has two catties of conch left in the water tank. Ah Ying's sister-in-law has more conch left, and there are some smaller crabs.

"That's all there is left, let's wait a little longer, if we can't sell it, then take it home and we'll eat it ourselves." Sister-in-law A Ying was in a good mood and decided happily.

There are many fishermen who come to the market to sell seafood, and there are many ordinary people who come to buy seafood. The bazaar is close to Shigang Village and close to the nearby county seat. Riding a bicycle from the county seat is about half an hour's road car. Many residents in the county come here to buy seafood.

The seafood in the vegetable market in the county is also purchased from here, but it is much more expensive than this, so many residents of the county prefer to ride here to buy better seafood for less money.

"Yo, it's the headmaster. ”

"Headmaster, you're here to buy seafood. ”

"Principal, my family's seafood is good, you can come and take a look, take some conch and go back to cook soup......"

Apparently the headmaster was a regular visitor to the bazaar, and many fishermen greeted her.

"Headmaster, which school is this?"

Lu Chaoyi took a look, it was an old man with gray hair, but she didn't know it. She asked Ah Ying's sister-in-law on the side.

"He is Principal Fu of our county No. 1 Middle School. When I was in middle school, Principal Fu taught me. Many of the people here are students of Principal Fu. Principal Fu is a good person, a good teacher, and a good principal. It's a pity that you have to go to the city No. 1 middle school to study, if you go to the county No. 1 middle school, you will also be a student of Principal Fu. ”

Principal Fu responded very kindly to everyone's greetings, Lu Chaoyi looked at the kind Principal Fu, what was she thinking in her heart.
