Approaching 12 o'clock, the two cars finally drove to the fishing village where the fishing ground was located. Passing through the fishing grounds, a large row of buildings of considerable size is close to the main road, and there are several trucks parked at the entrance.

Zhang Guoqing slowed down, and after taking a look, he turned his head and continued to move slowly, before he entered the village, he could already smell the smell of fish in the air.

According to the arrangement discussed with Zhao Dashan in advance, Zhang Guoqing first asked someone for directions, and found the old Wang family who sold crabs as his father-in-law Zhou Xiaozheng said.

As soon as they arrived at the other party's house, it happened that their family was about to finish eating. Lao Wang was overjoyed to learn that they were the family members of Liu Sanyuan and Zhou Xiaozheng, who came last time. This is a big customer, and he hurriedly pulled them into their seats.

Zhang Guoqing went back to the car and took down ten catties of rice and a piece of vermicelli and put them in the house.

He smiled at Lao Wang, who repeatedly refused, and said, "Uncle Wang, don't be busy stopping me. For lunch today, you have to ask your aunt to prepare a seafood feast. We came here to try my aunt's handiwork. ”

As soon as Lao Wang heard this, he understood. This is the same as Liu Sanyuan's daughter-in-law and her group coming to catch the sea in the summer, and the people in the city want to be fresh, and they can bring seafood home after having fun.

He hurriedly asked his daughter-in-law to start preparing and said, "Drink hot water to warm up first." When the tide is low when you finish eating, then my eldest son will take you there. ”

Zhao Dashan couldn't eat for a while, and saw that his daughter-in-law and daughter were ready to move. He discussed it with Zhang Guoqing and decided that the two of them would let Lao Wang help buy the sea goods first, and Cheng Hongli would take Zhao Yuanyuan and Zhou Jiao to see the sea first. After eating, the two families went to catch the sea.

Lao Wang heard it on the side and asked his youngest son to take the three of them to the beach and pay attention to safety.

Cheng Hongli and the three of them were happily anxious to run out.

Zhang Guoqing grabbed Zhou Jiao with sharp eyes and hands, and when he saw that she was dressed warmly, he was relieved to see her being pulled away by Zhao Yuanyuan, and couldn't help shouting for her not to take off her coat and let them come back for dinner early.

Zhao Dashan and Lao Wang laughed when they saw it.

Lao Wang stopped laughing and comforted him, "It's okay. Don't look at the sea breeze, it's not cold to run. When the meal is ready, let my daughter-in-law call them back for dinner. ”

Zhao Dashan said straight to the point on the side: "His little daughter-in-law has just come out of the moon. Wang, you still have to help us collect some seafood. ”

"Okay. Anyway, we won't have to wait until the meeting. I'll take you to the next door first. You see for yourselves, and let them send it over and give money together. After speaking, Lao Wang saw that they had already stood up and led them out.

Zhang Guoqing planned to go to the fishing ground that his father-in-law had said. Since the warehouse keeper can collect money privately, then he has a way to convince the other party. He is different from others, he is not short of money, he is not afraid of hot weather, and he puts it in the space and uses it slowly. On the way, he asked Lao Wang about the news of the fishing ground, intentionally or unintentionally.

Lao Wang led them to a courtyard. According to him, every time the family comes back from fishing, they return with a full load, and there is still a surplus in addition to the amount that should be given to the fishing grounds. The wife of the family took her daughter-in-law to dry a lot of dried fish, and brought them over to sell them at the fair. The whole village has the most seafood in their family.

The women in the courtyard are mending the nets. They saw Lao Wang with two strangers, and knew that this was bringing customers to the door.

The eldest lady hurriedly instructed her daughter-in-law to say a few words, and she put down her work to meet her.

Lao Wang said loudly: "Old sister-in-law, what other seafood do you have at home?" ”

When the old lady heard this, she happily took them to the warehouse and opened the door, "The smell is a little big." Look at it, I'll move it out for you if you like it. ”

As soon as Zhang Guoqing and Zhao Dashan entered, the fishy smell of the room rushed straight to their noses. No wonder the other party said that the taste was a bit big. I saw that there was a lot of dried kelp inside, and several bamboo baskets hanging were sun-dried dried shrimp and dried shrimp, each shell meat, and there were a lot of big dried fish hanging on the wooden shelf, and a few broken bamboo baskets on the ground were full of dried miscellaneous fish.

After Zhao Dashan inquired about the price, he asked Zhang Guoqing, "How about we pick our own favorites?" ”

"Uncle, you pick first, and I'll come back after you've picked one." After Zhang Guoqing finished speaking, he walked outside.

The taste is very big, some are only one or two cents a catty, what is there to pick, and it doesn't cost much to wrap all the rounds. He didn't go in if he was killed, and when Zhao Dashan picked it up, he wanted it all, and if he didn't eat it, he would keep it and give it away.

After ordering things and walking out of the small courtyard not far away, Zhao Dashan laughed, pointed at Zhang Guoqing and said, "You are worthy of Lin Lishan's son-in-law, and you like to buy things." ”

Zhang Guoqing thought of his mother-in-law's pie, and he was also amused, "I have a lot of relatives, so I don't have much to share casually." Uncle Dashan, you also buy more. It is okay to give gifts for the current year and the New Year. After saying that, he secretly counted the money with his finger towards him. There is Lao Wang in him, embarrassed to say that it is cheap here.

Zhao Dashan suddenly came back to his senses, and it can indeed be used as a gift. Don't look at the cheapness of this place, the local price in their county is not low. In particular, it is difficult to see seafood in his hometown.

After everyone left the two houses one after another, Lao Wang stopped and pulled them home, "Let's go." You don't pick anything. So why do we come to the door at home? I asked my daughter-in-law to inform them to send all the inventory to my house. You can calculate how much you need, and I think it's right to find a few. ”

As soon as Zhang Guoqing and the others came back, they saw that the hall was full of seafood, with fish, crabs and shells, and the old Wang's daughter-in-law in the kitchen was still serving outside.

Zhao Dashan hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, don't do it anymore, it's enough." ”

The old Wang's daughter-in-law smiled and said, "It won't be much." The shell looks like it has no meat, and there are two more dishes. You men drink first. When the meal was ready, the younger siblings were almost back. ”

Zhang Guoqing saw that Lao Wang pulled Zhao Dashan to the table to pour wine, and hurriedly said: "Uncle, I'll go find them, you drink first." "Slip away. Now he can stop drinking without drinking, just to see if his daughter-in-law is freezing.

Zhang Guoqing listened to the sound of the waves and walked quickly to the beach, and saw from a distance that those people were still shouting after playing crazy for so long, followed by a group of children. There were several fishing boats parked on the beach, and people were pointing at them and laughing.

As soon as Zhou Jiao saw Zhang Guoqing coming, she hurriedly ran over and pulled him, "Come with me to the reef, we don't dare to go over." I heard from the children that there are the most things there, and you can't go until the tide is all low. ”

Zhang Guoqing hurriedly grabbed her, and even his strength was not small in this excitement. He touched/touched her hands, "Don't you see your hands are frozen red?" Let's go back to dinner first. We'll come back when the tide goes out in the afternoon. ”

Zhou Jiao dragged him vigorously to the beach. Seeing this, Zhang Guoqing had no choice but to follow her, wrapping her hands tightly, hoping to warm her up.

"Aunt Cheng, the meal is ready. Let's go back first, and we'll come back later. ”

Cheng Hongli didn't raise her head when she heard this, and said, "Wait for me for another five minutes." Leave right away. ”

Zhang Guoqing watched her two mothers and daughters persistently chasing and catching the little crabs, crying and laughing. It's so small that you can't eat it even if you catch it. Look at the group of children around, it really looks like the child king.

Zhou Jiao dragged him towards the sea, pointing to the reef that had not yet completely receded, "That's the stone!" It would be nice to wait a minute, the sea has receded more than halfway. ”

Zhang Guoqing raised his foot to let her see, and said softly: "When the tide just recedes after eating, we will come back then." I'll take you to a less crowded place over there. See what's there? ”

Zhou Jiao saw that if the military boots he was wearing were to take a few steps forward, it would indeed be difficult to move an inch. She could only nod helplessly.

Zhang Guoqing pulled her to the left slowly, and the more she left the crowd, the more things on the beach were pushed by the waves. This will be the time when the tide will be low, and when the tide will recede, the children of the village will drag the bamboo baskets to the sea.

Listening to the news that Zhou Jiao inquired about, Zhang Guoqing nodded. He saw that Zhou Jiao was in high spirits, and did not remind her that one dollar could buy a lot of seafood for children to catch the sea.

Watching Zhou Jiao squatting down and sneaking into the space, Zhang Guoqing happily cooperated with her and covered her in front of her. If your own woman hurts, she can be happy.
