"Lobster? Do you still eat lobster at home? ”

Seeing the red lobster on the table, they let out the same shocked expression as Su Yuqing.

"Haha, you guys try it!" Lu Tao took a lobster for one of them.

Su Yuqing also helped on the side: "I also thought it was not delicious at that time, but I couldn't stop eating it." ”

Zhang Jianjun and several people were suspicious and stuffed the lobster into their mouths.

Then, there was a wave of exclamation.

"It's so delicious, I should have eaten it a long time ago if I knew the lobster was so delicious."

"I didn't expect this lobster to be a delicacy, I didn't even know it."

This night, Zhang Hu and Zhang Jianjun's family did not go home after dinner, but helped catch lobsters outside, so that Lu Tao and Su Yuqing could sort out gynostemma at home.

By ten o'clock in the evening, Zhang Hu and the others had already brought three buckets of lobsters, all of which were oversized lobsters.

At a glance, it is estimated that it is dozens of pounds large.

Lu Tao wanted to pay them, but they must have refused.

"Lu Tao, you let our family Zhang Hu have such a job, we can't thank it, you don't see it."

"Besides, you are really good to our family Zhang Hu, you think about him if you have anything delicious, how can I still collect money!"

Jiang Xiuzhu stuffed back the money given by Lu Tao.

Today, she saw that Zhang Hu was not only not excluded and disliked by Lu Tao, but was also taken care of in various ways, and she was moved.

Naturally, he won't ask for Lu Tao's money anymore.

So the two staged an extreme push at Lu Tao's house.

Wait until Jiang Xiuzhu and they leave.

Su Yuqing gave Tian Tian a boiled water to bathe, and Lu Tao was dealing with lobsters, because these lobsters are very delicate, if one is not handled properly, the lobsters will die quickly, and then they can really only feed the ducks.

Lu Tao first raised all the lobsters into several large basins he bought.

Rinse repeatedly with clean water to remove dirt from the surface of the lobster.

Then put some lobsters in several basins, each basin did not put too much, for fear of crushing each other, and then put a shallow layer of water in the basin so that the lobsters would not dry out.

After doing this, it was already more than twelve o'clock in the evening, Lu Tao hurriedly scrubbed his body with hot water, and then went to bed.

Because there is only one bed at home, and the family sleeps together, Lu Tao felt that Su Yuqing and Lu Sitian had already slept, especially Lu Sitian had already played softly.

Lu Tao tried his best to make his movements lighter, for fear of arguing with them.

"Lu Tao."

Who knows, just when Lu Tao was lying down, in the dark, he heard Su Yuqing beside him call him.

"Huh?" Lu Tao replied softly.

"Is this all true?" Su Yuqing said in a trance.

When she lay down and thought back on the day, she felt like she was in a dream.

Everything during the day, like a movie shot, played out in her mind, scene by scene.

It was difficult for her to accept that Lu Tao, who was originally so bad to herself, suddenly became a man who cared for his family and was good to him.

This change is really too big, as if it is a big change of life.

Is it really like Lu Tao said, he had a dream and then got better?

"Of course it's true!" Lu Tao stretched out his hand and squeezed Su Yuqing's hand: "Not only is it true today, but every day in the future, we will have a good life!" ”

When Lu Tao's hand touched Su Yuqing's hand, Su Yuqing suddenly retracted his hand as if it were a conditioned reflex.

It's just that there is still a large section of the finger in Lu Tao's hand.

Of course, Lu Tao could still clearly feel that Su Yuqing's hands were stiff.

After listening to Lu Tao's words, Su Yuqing was silent for a long time, and finally said one word firmly: "Okay." ”

Where Lu Tao couldn't see, in Su Yuqing's eyes, tears flowed down.

There are touches, grievances, sadness, and relief.

......

On this day, they finally had a good night's sleep.

It's rare that Lu Sitian didn't get up at night to go to the toilet, or sleep directly on his parents.

Maybe it was because we were too tired yesterday, or maybe everyone was in a bit of a good mood, so everyone slept until nine o'clock today.

Considering that he was going to set up a stall today, the time to come back was uncertain, so Lu Tao deliberately looked for Jiang Xiuzhu.

"Aunt Xiuzhu, I want to ask you something."

"What's the matter, you say." Jiang Xiuzhu was drying clothes at home, and when she heard Lu Tao coming to find her, she said politely that even her clothes were dry.

"It's like this, Aunt Xiuzhu, we may come back late today, so I want to ask you to help collect the herbs, anyway, you can recognize it, I will give you 15 a day, okay?"

Lu Tao felt that he didn't have time to collect gynostemma, so he wanted to give this task to Aunt Xiuzhu, and she could figure it out anyway.

Moreover, there is another advantage in this, that is, people in the village go to Jiang Xiuzhu's house to sell gynostemma, which will invisibly improve the image of Zhang Jianjun and his wife in the village, and there is no doubt that they have an advantage for the next village head election.

Jiang Xiuzhu is also a smart woman, and she quickly understood the benefits contained in it, and nodded excitedly: "Okay!" That auntie will help you! But I don't need to be paid! ”

"Hey, no, if you don't want to be paid, I'll ask someone else to help you." Lu Tao said without giving an inch.

He knew the situation of Zhang Jianjun's family, and this also meant that he was repaying them for taking care of his family, especially Jiang Xiuzhu, how many times he comforted Su Yuqing intimately and fought for some village benefits for her.

Now that I have been reborn, I have to take care of others a little, after all, it is too easy to make money by myself.

"Okay, thank you, girl!" Jiang Xiuzhu saw Lu Tao's resolute tone, so she could only respond.

In his heart, he sighed: his family has received too many favors from Lu Tao, and at that time, he and others were still hot Lu Tao earned 2,000 a day, he is really not a person, and he must take Lu Tao's family affairs more seriously in the future.

After doing this explanation work, Lu Tao went home to prepare, carried a three-core coal stove into the car, crossed the basin with lobster in front and back, brought the rest of the stall tools, and the gynostemma to be sold, and simply ate lunch at home, and they set off.

The front and rear add up, there is a car full of cars,

When I arrived in the county, I sold the gynostemma first, but recently the amount of gynostemma has decreased, only more than 300 catties, and I exchanged it for more than 1,500 yuan.

So they galloped to the place where the stall was set up.

The place where Lu Tao chose to set up the stall was opposite the Xintai textile factory where Tang Baimei's husband was located.

Xintai Textile Factory is an industrial area in the county, which has many factories, state-owned units, and some small private factories.

Not only do workers usually pass by on their way to and from work, but there are also some migrant workers in these factories, who usually live in the dormitories here, and when they get off work, they will come out to stroll.

When Lu Tao arrived here, it was already more than two o'clock in the afternoon.

They set up their stalls, and because there was no gas stove, they still used a large three-core briquette stove.

Honeycomb coal is burned, the kind that burns three at a time.

As soon as they set it up, someone immediately came over: "What are you selling here?" ”

Everyone is curious about new things.

Lu Tao said very politely, these days, everyone likes to call the boss, just like later, everyone likes to call others what is always the same:

"Boss, we sell fried lobster, whether it is eaten with wine, as a dish, or as a small snack, it is very good!"

"Today, we set up a stall on the first day, I'll fry a portion first, everyone can try it!"

As Lu Tao spoke, he opened the tuyere of the briquette stove and let the wind in, so that the honeycomb coal that was already lit inside could quickly ignite.

Three pieces of honeycomb coal, with the blessing of the wind, quickly burned the big iron pot to a boiling hot.

Lu Tao quickly started the pot and boiled the oil.

With his skillful operation, a plate of fragrant garlic crayfish was soon out of the pot.

The people watching from the side were already secreting saliva frantically just by smelling the smell.

When Lu Tao put it out on a plate, the red lobster instantly captured everyone's hearts.

Because this is the county seat, everyone does not have the prejudice in the countryside.

As long as it is delicious, they will dig into their wallets and buy it.

Anyway, it's a free tasting, one of you, one of mine, and this plate of lobsters will be divided up at once.

After everyone tasted it, they all felt that the aftertaste was endless, and immediately some people couldn't wait to buy it.

"Boss, how many are these? I'll buy twenty and go back to drink! Finally, I don't have to eat ham sausage and beer. ”

"Boss, I want some too, I can't cook well tonight, this lobster." My family must like it. ”

Su Yuqing, who heard that they were all talking about the price, was constantly taking care of the lobsters and removing the black tendons from the lobsters.

She looked at the lobsters that were everywhere in the village in her hand, and couldn't believe it.

Lu Tao didn't expect that people at this time were so simple, and they only bought crayfish.

He smiled and said: "My lobster is sold by the catty, not by the catty, two yuan a catty, but today is the first day, I will give everyone a discount, just one piece of five pounds to sell." ”

Hearing Lu Tao's price, everyone hesitated slightly, but soon, the money was handed over.

"Boss. I want a pound! ”

"I want a pound too!"

"I'm different, I want two pounds!"

Although compared with gynostemma, this price is not good, but it is good that the lobster does not need money, and all it needs is some spices and honeycomb coal.

Moreover, the fried lobster is all juicy.

There must be at least one or two taels of juice in a pound.

In this way, if you sell a piece of five pounds, Lu Tao will also earn one piece of five pounds.

That's right, it's how much you receive, how much you earn.

However, because it was just the beginning, Lu Tao didn't bring many lobsters, only a few dozen catties.

Before the factories were finished, he sold out.

Among the people who bought Lu Tao's crayfish, there was Tang Baimei's husband.

......

On the way home.

Su Yuqing was holding a bulging plastic bag, which was counted and counted.

"One piece, two pieces...... One hundred and three dollars and five cents! ”

Lu Tao could feel Su Yuqing beside him, and his eyes were shining.

"How long will it be before we get home?" Su Yuqing asked.

"Half an hour, what's wrong?" Lu Tao was puzzled.

"I want to catch lobsters in a while, catch more and sell them tomorrow!"

"Mom, I'm going to catch crayfish too!"

Lu Tao was speechless, Yuqing, is this a drop in the eyes of money?
