Chapter 316: Pickup

The farce of the early morning gradually came to an end under the scolding and scolding of Sister-in-law Ye.

After a group of children finished eating, they watched them sort crabs and tie crab legs at the door with their schoolbags on their backs, and they were a little reluctant to go to school.

Sister-in-law Ye came out after washing the dishes and saw that they were still talking there, and they didn't go out to school, so she suddenly became angry again, went back to the house, picked up the whip and threw it at them again.

Of course, it was Ye Chenghai who suffered.

He bounced instantly, crying with a sad face, "Why did you hit me again?"

"It's you who beat you, and you're still reluctant to leave when you get to the point, haven't you eaten enough for breakfast and are waiting for the whip?"

"I'm not the only one...... Ay...... Don't run...... Wait for me......

walked slowly, and ended up being whipped again......

Alas, it's really hard to be the boss......

Ye Yaodong and Ye's father and mother sorted the two baskets of crabs while bundling, and the old lady was also helping slowly.

It only took a little time for the four of them to pick out all the crabs and tie their feet.

The thinner ones, the ones with broken feet, and the dead ones were left to eat, and the intact ones were picked out for more than 40 catties, and the vitality of the crabs was still quite tenacious.

He kept more than ten catties for himself, and he asked his mother to watch it and distribute it to relatives and friends, anyway, he couldn't finish it at home, and then carried the sorted baskets into the car.

Although the number of each basket is not much, but the sorting out also has to be loaded in baskets, and by the way, the big yellow croaker caught last night is also carried on the board truck.

Sent to the dock, the crab was sold for more than 12 yuan, the large yellow croaker was sold for more than 16 yuan, and the two together sold for less than 29 yuan.

It's a windfall.

He happily received the bill of goods, and asked Ah Cai to help him leave a 50-pound trash fish and shrimp as bait today.

There are a lot of sandworms at home, which can also be used as bait, so the fish and shrimp can be appropriately less, if it is not for the abundance of bait varieties, and he also wants to dry a little more sandworms, otherwise he doesn't have to buy it at all, and it is enough to use sandworms as bait.

He went home happily, and he didn't know when the two big baskets of sandworms would have to be cleaned up, but fortunately, there were many people at home who could help with the work.

When I went back, Sister-in-law Ye and Sister-in-law Ye were also helping to clean up with a fast child, and they were talking about waiting for the tide to go and catch a little more and come back to dry, sandworms are indeed delicious, and they can also nourish yin and kidneys.

Don't look at the two baskets here and the leftovers from yesterday, there are a lot of them, but in fact, there are not many of them, a pound of sandworms can probably be more than one or two, and about eight pounds can produce a pound of dry.

He left a few catties as bait, and yesterday he brought a bucket back to his father-in-law's mother-in-law, and the rest is estimated to be about six or seven catties, and when they come to pick up Lin Guangyuan, they have to bring a little bit of dry back, which is really not much, and the family is only enough to share one or two catties......

No, I have to send Lin Guangyuan to catch a little more in the afternoon!

Ye Mu was also there and said, "I'll go with you when the tide goes out in the afternoon, grab a little more, this is delicious no matter how you cook it." After the beginning of spring, there was a lot of rain, and I didn't go to sea much, and I didn't have any stock at home.

….

"That's what we think too......

Today, on the sixteenth day of the lunar calendar, the tide is full at more than 1 o'clock in the afternoon, lasts for more than an hour, and then gradually begins to recede, and recedes to the end at more than 7 o'clock.

It just so happens that a few small ones are out of school at that time in the afternoon, so they can be sent out!

He is not afraid that there will be no sandworms to catch today, and generally it will last for a few days to mate and reproduce, and if there is no beach on the surface, you can dig under the sand.

It's just that when they were busy with their work, Aunt Lan and her three daughters-in-law next door came to clean the house, saw it, and came over to say hello.

"Young ~ so many sandworms? Caught on the beach, you went to the beach so early?"

Sister-in-law Lan also said:

"This has to be dozens of pounds, it can be a lot of sun, how long have you been pretending? In the afternoon, the tide is low, and there should be a lot, right? We're going to grab some of them then, it's very fresh."

Mother Ye smiled: "It's been a few days since the house was built, when will you move?"

"It's going to be half a month before we have a day, so let's take the time to clean it up in advance, and we have to tidy up around the door, and get a small piece of land out to grow some vegetables."

"I have to grow some vegetables, we don't have much land around here, so we can only see some of the needles planted and eaten at home."

"Yes, so I came here in advance, the man was not at home, and he went to sea, so we women could only do it."

……

After they had spoken a few words, they went to the new house next to them to get busy.

Second sister-in-law Ye was a little unhappy and said, "There are a few more families next to it, fortunately, the king squid in the first month was discovered early, otherwise they might have discovered it first."

Ye Yaodong glanced at his second sister-in-law unexpectedly, his mind was quite strange, he could actually think of it so far? It's been a few months......

may have been cheated of money, and suddenly earned a large amount of money, which made her firmly engraved in her heart, you must know that she thought that the new house was a little biased before.

"Zhou Yongsheng's house is also going to be built next to it, I heard that they will wait until after May Day to start construction", Ye Mu said casually while busy, "It would be good for a few more families to build houses here, and it would be lively."

"I don't cover it together, I knock and beat it all day and night, it's so noisy......

"Isn't it all like building a house......

There are many people with great strength, everyone chats, and the movements in their hands are not slow, and the two baskets of sandworms are gradually bottoming out.

Ye Mu saw that there was only a little left at the bottom and handed it over to them to do, and she went to carry water to clean.

After washing the sandworms, she took advantage of the good weather to dry them in the past two days, and then she had to work on the baskets of anchovies.

The fish sauce is made by fermenting small fish with salt, and it is as good as the infamous canned herring.

Ye Yaodong watched his mother pour the small fish into the large tank, mix it with sea salt in a ratio of 3:2 and start salting, as for how much fish sauce can be produced from a bag of anchovies, he doesn't know, he hasn't calculated.

After it is done, it can be sold, and the big vat of them can't be eaten until the Year of the Monkey, and they can't eat it as a meal, just a condiment to improve freshness, but it is indeed indispensable for every household in their local area.

With Ye's father helping Ye's mother, he went to the house to play with the child.

When the tide was low in the afternoon, the family went to the beach with their tools to catch more sandworms.

….

I don't know if Aunt Lan's family next door leaked the wind, at low tide in the afternoon, there were quite a lot of people on the beach, and the sandworms in the shallow water beach were swept away as soon as they emerged, so that they could only dig slowly on the beach, and the efficiency was greatly reduced.

The sandworms are not directly shoveled out of the hole, but around the hole, and then they can be quickly turned out with a shovel with their feet, which will be a little more efficient.

At this time, Ye's father and Ye mother each took a shovel and turned it over, and Ye's sister-in-law and Ye's second sister-in-law picked it up.

When the children came from school and saw that the beach was full of people, they were all stunned.

"How long does this have to be dug up?"

"Dig slowly, and it's just fun."

After a group of helpers came, Ye Yaodong didn't work seriously anymore, and began to wander around again, taking a look at the harvest of other people's homes by the way.

Well...... Not as much as they catch with a shovel......

I went around and picked up only a few cat's eye snails that could spray water, and a few jumping fish.

There are so many people on the beach that they are probably almost picked up.

His hands were full, and he could only walk back, but he saw Ye Chenghu reaching out towards a conch on the beach, so frightened that he immediately ran forward and kicked it away.

"Daddy?"

"Don't reach out and pick up anything you don't know," he said, walking over to the snail again, "Come over to me."

Ye Chenghu looked puzzled, "Huh?"

"Let me tell you to recognize it, this is called a chicken snail, the shell is sharp and thin in the front, and the back is thick

It is shaped like a chicken's heart or like a taro. This poisonous, that tiny opening has fangs in it, and it can shoot venom, and a touch of it can make you die."

There are a lot of small seafood to pick up on the beach, but there are also deadly things, so you need to be careful, especially in this era, when the sea is abundant, and there are often unknown things on the beach.

Ye Chenghu was instantly stunned and motionless.

"Don't touch things you don't know in the future," he looked at the children around him, "You are the same, you should be careful when you come to the beach to play, and don't pick up things you don't know."

"Oh, I know the third uncle."

"Let's play!"

After letting them recognize it carefully, he kicked the chicken heart snail back into the sea far away, and this snail is actually very easy to identify.

Seeing that Ye Chenghu was still in place, he patted his head again, "Go dig the sandworms, and I'll go back and give you pocket money later!"

"Really?" Ye Chenghu's eyes lit up with surprise.

Children are forgetful.

"Really, work hard, go ahead."

He ran away again, leaving the episode behind.

A large family came out as soon as the tide receded, worked for two or three hours, and when they went back for dinner, they dug up about 20 catties, which was disgusted by the children.

"It's not as much as we caught yesterday!"

"Not as much as we caught at night!"

"There are too many people!"

Ye Yaodong also felt that today's efficiency was too low, and he still had to put it in the back door to deal with these things in the future.

"Auntie, let's ...... at night."

Ye Yaodong knocked him on the head unceremoniously, "Stay at home for me to sleep at night, if I find out that you secretly went to the beach, I will send you home directly tomorrow, and I will never let you come over to play again."

Lin Guangyuan immediately shut his mouth, "I mean, what time do you go to sea at night?"

"It's past two o'clock."

"And when will you be back?"

"I don't know what time it is in the afternoon, depending on the situation, the tide, the weather, and the harvest."

"Okay."

"I want to go to sea to play, wait until you're older."

"Okay."

Because he had to go to sea at night, Ye Yaodong went to sleep when he came back from the literacy class.

He went to the literacy class for some three days of fishing and two days of drying nets, and he would only go when he was free, so he had not yet graduated, and he also continued to go with the mentality of knowing a few more words if he could.
