Chapter 199: Cool and crooked

Lin Xiuqing squatted on the ground and twisted the towel, and glanced up from the bottom, the majestic appearance made her ears red.

Although they have been married for several years, there was no electricity in the village a few years ago, they all worked in the dark, and the candles were not lit.

"Come on, don't ink, the water will be cold later, I'm going to catch a cold......

"Don't be shy, old husband and wife......

"Don't wash the back, rub the front......

"Don't be perfunctory, be careful......

"Wipe the cracks, too......

"And the following two ......."

"Yes...... That's it......

Ye Yaodong's mouth was almost to the back of his head, today's treatment is good, his arm can make it hurt for ten days and a half a month!

"Wife, why don't you do another favor?"

"You don't want to make an inch!"

"Isn't that a matter of course?"

Lin Xiuqing ignored him, and asked him to put his feet in the basin after the most troublesome cleaning part was completed, but ......

"Can you bring your feet together?"

"No, what man have you ever seen sit with his legs together? It's not a woman, it's a man's way to sit with her legs crossed."

"But you're washing your feet!"

"Then my feet are in the basin! There's nothing wrong with it~ You wash yours, don't peek at me."

"You think I love it?"

"That's not for sure."

Lin Xiu was angry, too shameless.

He turned his head directly to the cupboard, took out his shorts, and gestured to put them on him.

"What's the hurry, my feet are still wet, and I haven't finished washing yet."

Lin Xiuqing slapped his calf a few times, this shameless dog man, "Wear it, quickly put it on for me."

Ye Yaodong looked regretful and unsatisfied, and raised his feet to put them on.

Lin Xiuqing was satisfied with washing his feet and drying them and putting on his clothes, but she had a headache again during the meal.

I even have to feed him like a son!

Ye Yaodong finally enjoyed a handful of clothes to reach out for food to open his mouth, and his heart was happy~

"Mother, why does Dad still need to be fed?"

"Shame~"

"Your father's hand is injured and he can't eat on his own."

"Ah, that dad is so pitiful~ Where is my dad injured, I'll take a look......

As soon as the two children heard that he was injured, they hurriedly ran to his side to lift his sleeves, but Ye Chengyang still gave him a mouth to snort?

Then he said in a milky voice, "Whirring doesn't hurt~"

Ye Yaodong was immediately moved, his son was quite filial......

"Okay, let's go play by myself, your dad is fine, let your dad finish the meal first."

"Okay."

The two children were not willing to leave, and obediently stood aside and watched.

Ye Yaodong was extremely relieved that he had not hurt them in vain during this time.

Lin Xiuqing also breathed a sigh of relief after feeding him, and asked him to go to the room to watch the two children, and then she would help him with tea oil before going to bed, and then she would go to kill fish.

Mother Ye and Ye Huimei had already come early, killed fish at the door, and called the eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law out to help, she had to hurry up.

Otherwise, I ask others to do my own work, but I am not doing it, which is not good.

Ye Yaodong was comfortably served by her, and he was also satisfied with taking the two children back to the house, watching the children willingly, and by the way, they fell asleep before coming out.

….

"Big brother and second brother, take me with you when you go to sea at night, my father and I have worked too hard during the day, and I can't collect the hook when I throw it in the sea, and I want to trouble you to help me take it back at night, and I haven't had time to collect the goods in the cage today."

Father Ye also helped Ye Yaodong on the side and said, "The sardine storm has just passed, there should be a lot of goods in the sea area over there, let the third child take you to the sea area during the day to trawl, it must be better than others."

The place is strong, you can help him take back all the hooks by the way."

"Okay, okay."

It is also appropriate for brothers to do a favor with each other, without Father Ye's words, they will also help to receive the goods.

Lin Xiuqing glanced at Ye Yaodong and didn't say anything, and came back to rest for a few days.

Sister-in-law Ye and Sister-in-law Ye only learned after they came back that the third family had made a fortune again this time, and their hearts began to taste sour.

Since he got better, making money is much easier than others, and in just a few months, the family has become richer than any of them.

The words of envy were also brought out in the chat while working......

Lin Xiuqing listened to their sour words, only smiled on her face and didn't answer, or skipped it lightly.

Mother Ye also pretended not to hear, anyway, they were all separated, and she didn't need to balance, each family lived its own life, and they even contributed the boat to the eldest and second, and the luck of making money was not as good as the third child, so there was no way.

300 pounds of sardines, five people to help dry, deal with it quickly, while killing and drying, all of them are done in two hours, there are rows of long bamboo flats neatly standing on the side of the corner of the door wall, and everyone also packs up and goes home to sleep.

After Lin Xiuqing returned to the house, he took the tea oil, helped him take off his clothes, and wiped him, for fear that the light would be too bright to wake up the child, so the two of them were in the hall.

"Hiss~Tap~Oh~"

"Can you please stop screaming, don't wake up the child."

"But it hurts......

"Is that an exaggeration?"

"It just hurts! You don't know how much physical exertion it takes, how much strength is lost, how much waist strength is overdrawn by me and my father from early morning to dark, and we can't lift our hands before we return, otherwise we won't be delayed until dark, just thinking about casting more nets and making more money......

originally thought that he was deliberately exaggerating and teasing her, but now it sounds distressing, and his hands are a lot gentler.

"You also have to wipe your back and arms, and your waist, your waist is so sore, you're working hard today, and tomorrow morning you remember to buy a pork kidney and come back to make it up for me."

Lin Xiu glanced at his back innocently, and his backache was still so flowery when he had just taken a bath.

"Got it."

"Buy one every day from now on."

"Hmm."

Ye Yaodong was very satisfied, and he really needed to sell miserably occasionally.

"Those two gannets, you will also look at the stew tomorrow, decorate the old house more, that one has more than 20 catties, enough for the two of us to eat, and one will be given to the sister-in-law and sister-in-law tomorrow for them to share by themselves, I forgot to say it before."

"Okay, it doesn't matter, it's the same for them tomorrow."

The couple chatted for a while before going back to the house to sleep.

Ye Yaodong deliberately slept in the small bed at night, he was afraid that the two little cubs would sleep too badly and roll down him.

I don't know if it's because he's too tired during the day, as soon as he lies down, he immediately falls asleep, and he doesn't know if he wakes up at night, or Lin Xiuqing finished cooking and woke him up when the time was almost up.

….

Even when he woke up, he still felt tired and couldn't open his eyes, and his arm hurt even more, he felt that his muscles must have been strained, and after the hooks were all withdrawn, he really had to take care of it for a while.

"Are you too tired to go or don't go?" Tomorrow during the day, I will ask your friends to accompany you to collect it?"

"No, it's okay, I'll get up now, they also have their own work to do, and it's also because I can rest on the boat anyway."

He slowed down to get up and sneezed twice.

After Lin Xiuqing helped him get dressed and pants, he got him an old cotton jacket, although it was only October, but the temperature at sea was low, the wind was strong, and the temperature difference between day and night was also large.

"Wear a thicker one, so as not to catch a cold, you still wore so many wet clothes yesterday."

Ye Yaodong rubbed his nose, which was a little itchy, "Hmm..."

After eating, he asked his eldest brother and second brother to help push the cart with the bamboo basket, and the three brothers went to the dock.

This time it's the three of them

The first time we went to sea together.

Ye Yaopeng also said with a smile.

"yes, rare, hehe." Ye Yaohua pushed the cart and agreed.

"It's rare, I'm going to sea today to see you get rich."

"Hehe, it's hard to say whether you will get rich or not, it was a pity yesterday, and I don't know what goods we can drag today, can you give us a little left."

"It should be, but unfortunately I don't know where the sardines have swam after half a day, otherwise I might be able to chase after them."

Ye Yaodong didn't know where the sardines had gone after half the night, this kind of luck was not available every day.

After the three of them got on the boat, he looked at the compass and pointed out the direction of sailing.

After waiting for more than an hour, he felt that he was almost there, so he asked his eldest brother to slow down and carefully use a flashlight to look for it.

It wasn't until he wandered around the nearby sea for half an hour that he found the buoy, which was fortunately still there, and fortunately there were no big waves at night, otherwise he would have nowhere to find it.

Ye Yaopeng also saw his buoy in the distance, adjusted the direction of the fishing boat, and headed towards that position.

"That's it, right?"

"Yes, that's it, I'm going to trouble the eldest brother and the second brother."

"It's okay, we're also curious about what you can catch today, I heard that longline fishing only catches big fish, not small fish, let's try to see how efficient you are." Dad told us yesterday that longline fishing is good for us to try."

"Longline fishing is very good, but our village is dominated by trawling. My hook is not big, and the fishing boat is not good, I can catch a fish weighing a few pounds, and if it is bigger, it depends on luck, and some longlines can be used to catch tuna in the deep sea, which is amazing, but unfortunately our boat can't go."

The one that needed a medium-sized or large fishing boat to sail quickly across the ocean to track schools of tuna and equipment on board was not something that could be done by a simple tin boat like theirs.

And the general outline rope of the longline also has great requirements.

Generally, multi-strand nylon rope is used, with a diameter of 4-5 mm, and the tensile value is kept at 100-150 kg.

The diameter of the tie hook branch is 3-4 mm, the tensile value is maintained at 60-80 kg, and each branch is 50 meters long.

The fishing hook is 2.2.3.5, the upper end of the hook handle is with a ring ring, and the sea fishing barb hook made of high-quality steel should not be less than the branch line tension, and each branch line is tied to one.

There are also many auxiliary tools, such as large buoys, telecommunication markers, direction finders, longline winches, winches, cranes, hooks, lases, etc.

He doesn't have the skills to do that now, so he can only try his luck offshore.
