Chapter 168: Go home and take the children
"What luck I was to come across so many sea intestines today!" Jin Sanbao happily put the sea intestines he picked up into the seawater and washed some of the sand indicated.
"Look for it again, I feel that I should be able to find a lot more if I continue to move forward, and I will be able to sell it for more money when the time comes." Jin Fan patted him and said.
"It's all small bulges over there, I'll dig up some clams and make a soup at night." Zhang Ze was not very interested in these small money, and the sea intestines in the back basket were enough to eat, so he was going to dig up some sand clams and white clams or something.
There are sea intestines, and the rest of the people are not so interested in clams, which have weight but are not valuable.
He had barely taken two steps when he noticed that something seemed to be moving in the water at his feet.
When I crouched down, it was a translucent strange species.
It resembles a fish, not a fish, resembling a willow leaf, and its head is not visible at the tips of the two ends, and it looks a lot like a bug with a slight reddish tinge.
This thing. Zhang Ze inexplicably felt very familiar.
', isn't this Wenchang fish?' ’
One of the specialties of Fu Province, Zhang Ze had eaten it once in his previous life, but it has been a long time since now.
And this original appearance made him not recognize it for a while, after all, it was cooked at that time.
He directly put this Wenchang fish into the space, because several other people had gone to look for the sea intestine, which was a little far away from him, so he was naturally not afraid of being seen.
[Successfully captured a Wenchang fish, weighing 10 grams, experience +1.] 】
Small is really small, only 10 grams, it is estimated that it is relatively large.
It's like a little whitebait, and if you don't have enough of it, you won't be able to make a dish.
Zhang Ze continued to search, digging clams and collecting a few Wenchang fish, obviously there are not many Wenchang fish on the beach here, so he didn't call Jin Sanbao and a few people over.
At this moment, he passed by the floating moss that was washed up by the seawater next to him, and suddenly a black-brown grouper rushed out, and in an instant, it ran five or six meters.
Zhang Ze was stunned for a moment, then reacted and hurriedly chased after him.
The grouper came to a halt after a distance, as if waiting for him to pass.
When Zhang Ze got closer, he slowed down and leaned over cautiously.
If you encounter a grouper in the reef area, it is easy to catch as long as it is not a particularly large pit, but in this vast sandy beach, it is very difficult to catch such a fish.
But it was impossible for Zhang Ze to see the fish and not catch it, so after getting close to the fish this time, he pounced directly, not caring whether the clothes on his body would be soaked by the seawater.
Perhaps the grouper itself consumed a lot of physical strength because of fighting the waves, so he hid under the floating moss to rest, so this time Zhang Ze easily pressed it on the beach with both hands.
But this grouper is not small, estimated to be about two or three catties.
Its open dorsal fin was likely to hurt Zhang Ze's hand because of the strength of the struggle, so the moment he held down the grouper, it was retracted into space.
[Successfully captured a Malaba grouper, weighing 2.74 catties, experience +12.] 】
"It turned out to be a flower ghost." Seeing the scientific name, Zhang Ze recognized the origin of this grouper.
There are so many species of grouper in the South China Sea that even if he is a fisherman, he can't recognize it at a glance.
The main reason is that he basically operates in the East China Sea, and he has not come to the South China Sea to fish more than ten times.
A lot of groupers have been seen on the Internet, and the memory is not very deep.
But this space is great, as long as he puts it in, he can immediately know where the fish came from.
"Aze, what are you grabbing, why did you go into the water?" Jin Sambo's voice sounded in the distance, and he was walking this way, obviously curious about what he was caught.
Zhang Ze's heart moved, and the grouper suddenly appeared in the back basket.
"Luckily, I caught a ghost."
"Wow! Flower ghost? Where, where! ”
"This looks not small, there are two or three catties, Aze, you are really lucky (luck)!"
Hearing the flower ghost spots, the other two also came over, and then several heads stretched out, looking at the grouper in the bamboo basket with envy on their faces.
"Aze, I brought a bucket here, you put the fish in it and raise it, it won't be so valuable if you die!"
Jin Fan said and took out the bucket he brought, Zhang Ze took it, and said thank you.
"Mother, it's time (no thanks)." Jin Fan waved his hand, "Everyone is from the same village now, and they are still friends, so they should help each other." ”
"Okay, I'll buy some meat later, and come to my house for dinner in the evening!" After a short contact, Zhang Ze felt that these three people were quite good.
Since he felt that he could make friends, he naturally didn't mind inviting guests to dinner and continued to get closer.
If you have a good relationship with your neighbors in the village, you can definitely save a lot of trouble in daily life, especially if you are a newcomer like them.
Hearing Zhang Ze's treat, Jin Sanbao and the others were stunned, and then they all smiled and agreed.
They also think that Zhang Ze has a good personality, although he is quite rich, he has no sense of distance, he is very comfortable to get along with, and he is naturally willing to make friends.
Jin Fan handed the bucket to Zhang Ze and asked, "Aze, do you want to eat this fish yourself or sell it?" ”
"That's it, of course, eat it yourself. This fish can only be sold for two or three yuan, and my family is not short of this. Zhang Ze took the bucket and smiled.
In terms of what he catches every time he goes to sea, a grouper is really nothing.
I just had a treat today, and this grouper can be used as a meal.
But this invisible Versailles made the Jin Sanbao and several people show a look of envy and strangeness.
Sometimes they don't go to sea or catch the sea, so they will weave nets to make some money, but a family can't earn a dollar by weaving nets for a day, or even so much, so others don't take these two or three dollars in their eyes at all.
"Aze is worthy of buying a big boat, he is heroic!" Chen Xudong, who had the least words, gave a thumbs up.
Zhang Ze said with a smile: "Luckily, I got a big ship in Wenshui City at that time, and then I made a lot of money every time I went to sea." ”
After chatting for a while, several people continued to catch up with the sea.
But there was a big harvest in the front, and basically all of them were almost scraped, so the next harvest was actually not much.
"Let's go, let's go back first when the sun is big!" Jin Fan walked around and found a cat's eye snail, and suddenly lost the mind to continue to catch the sea.
If you go back early, you can help weave nets at home in the afternoon and mend nets, and be ready to go to sea tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
Jin Sanbao put the basket on the beach: "Since Aze has a treat at night, let's put together our things and see what is suitable for snacks." ”
Zhang Ze looked at it and said with a smile: "I have everything you caught here, and I'll go buy some meat and come back later, and that's all about the seafood." ”
Although he said so, Jin Sanbao and the others still put things together.
For example, Jin Fan, there are two octopuses in the back basket, and two orchid crabs, forget about the sea intestines, Zhang Ze has a lot here.
There are a few shrimps, orchid crabs, and even a few stone crabs here.
Chen Xudong also has a lot of things, and when the three of them got together, they actually got together a plate of clams, a plate of crabs, a plate of shrimp and three octopus that are not very small.
There are quite a lot of things, plus the sea intestines and grouper on Zhang Ze's side, even if you don't buy meat at night, it's enough to eat.
But you still have to have a snack to drink, fried peanuts are very suitable, and he has to buy alcohol.
Afterwards, they re-boarded the boat and followed the river back to the fishing village.
Zhang Ze looked at his watch, it was just after ten o'clock in the morning.
Walking towards the village, you can still see some women returning with freshly washed clothes by the river in the village.
Several women seemed to be very curious about the newly moved Zhang Ze, and they didn't know what to say.
Several older women flushed a young man's face teasingly.
However, the other party's voice was too quiet, and none of them heard it.
Back at home, Zhang's mother was already preparing lunch, and three young women were helping out on the side.
Although Tong Shuyao is pregnant, women in this era are not so squeamish.
She's okay, Zhang Ze feels sorry for her, there are many women in the family, and she doesn't need to farm for many things.
In fact, many women are pregnant and have to work in the fields and do housework when they get home.
When I was pregnant, I didn't rest well, I didn't eat any nutritious things, and I didn't go to the hospital for prenatal checkups.
"Coming back so early?" When Tong Shuyao saw him, he hurriedly went inside to get a clean towel, moistened it with water and came over to dry him.
"Today's harvest is okay." Zhang Ze took down the back basket and put it aside, including the bucket that Jin Fan gave him.
After letting the daughter-in-law wipe her sweat, she said: "We will eat these at night, and I called Ah Bao and them to come over and drink in the evening, and I will go to the market to buy some things later." ”
The family had no objection to him inviting guests to dinner, and it was a big deal to cook some of their own women to eat at night, and they also knew the benefits of Zhang Ze's good relationship with the people in the village.
"Brother, can you take me with you next time you go to catch the sea?" Zhang Wu came over at this time, with a little resentment on his face.
Coming to an unfamiliar environment made him bored, and there were no children of the same age around, but it was difficult for him to integrate now if he couldn't speak Cantonese, so I wanted to hang out with him.
"Come fish with me tomorrow, and I'll get you a rod in the afternoon." Zhang Ze touched his head and said.
It's really easy to be suffocated at home every day, and childhood should have the appearance of childhood.
"Okay, good, brother, what do you want to make a fishing rod?" When Zhang Wu heard him say that he was going to take him fishing, he was immediately overjoyed.
He is the most naughty at this age, he used to dig for loaches in the trees and birds' nests in the fields in the village all day long, and he also played with children of the same age.
Later, I went to Wenshui City and was not bored, I came into contact with football, and I could burn off the excess energy by playing for an hour every day.
"Mom, how long is noon?" Zhang Ze turned around and asked.
Zhang Huihong: "It's almost time, you have to go out to eat first." ”
Hearing her say this, Zhang Ze immediately went out to find bamboo.
There are some fine bamboos on the side of Lotus Mountain, it stands to reason that making fishing rods has high requirements for bamboo, and you have to dry it for three months, dry the water in the bamboo, and then roast it and break it straight.
However, he took Zhang Wu to catch some small fish at most, just come to the roots, and at most fold and redo it.
It's still possible to make a fishing rod simply, but it's hard for him to make a solid fishing rod.
After lunch, Zhang Wu couldn't wait to pull him forward to cut bamboo.
Zhang Ze got on the tricycle, and he sat in the back.
The means of transportation were naturally ready, and within two days of coming here, Zhang Ze went to buy a bicycle and a tricycle.
It is convenient to have a tricycle to transport things, and as for the motorcycle, he is going to buy it, but he will have to talk about it after he returns from Hong Kong Island and gets the fishing boat.
Motorcycles are bought to make it easier to go to the city, and sometimes if you catch some high-value fish, you can use the motorcycle to send it to the city and sell it at a high price.
Riding a tricycle, I went to the foot of Lotus Mountain in the envious eyes of some people in the village.
Zhang Ze will say hello when he meets someone, and after coming here, his behavior has changed a lot, relatively speaking, he will not be as indifferent as when he was in Qinghe Village, and he will not care about the surrounding neighbors like in Wenshui City.
Here, he is very polite to everyone on the surface, speaks well, and will pick up good things about people and things, which reflects a high emotional intelligence.
Because of this, he was able to integrate into the village in a short period of time.
Passing by the third child, Tong Guoqi is here, and now they all live together, and after the men go to sea, Tong Yuanhang and Tong Junqiang's wife and children will go to the third place to eat.
Because Tong Guoqi has few children and many spare rooms at home, his father-in-law and mother-in-law live here.
Today, my father-in-law also went to sea with him, and he also went to sea on Lumen Island before, but he used his own small boat to catch something casually in the offshore waters.
Now that there is no boat here, I simply go with my three sons.
"Mom, I'm having lunch!" Seeing the three sisters-in-law feeding the children, Zhang Ze stopped the car and walked in with Zhang Wu, first said hello to a few sisters-in-law in the yard, and then entered the house.
Lu Man was busy in the kitchen, and seemed to be making sweet potato flour, when he saw him and smiled: "Have you two eaten, I'm making sweet potato flour, do you want to eat some?" ”
"We've eaten." Zhang Ze glanced at the older children sitting at the table and waiting to be fed, and said with a smile, "Mom, it's not easy for you to cook a big family's meal, let's not cause you trouble when we come over to eat again!" ”
"Hey, so many mouths have been fed, what's the trouble with two more mouths!" Lu Man actually enjoyed it.
When people get older, they like this feeling of having children and grandchildren full.
Before the children went to Wenshui City, she and her husband lived in Lumen Island was actually quite boring, and she also missed the lively and lively scene of the house before.
That's why she proposes that after a man goes to sea, his daughter-in-law and grandchildren will come to her for dinner.
"By the way, where are you two going?" The kitchen side can see the door at a glance, and Lu Man also saw the tricycle in the yard at this time, so he asked.
"Ah Wu is idle at home, and now he can't speak Cantonese, so I'll take him to get a fishing rod and go fishing with me tomorrow." Zhang Ze explained.
Hearing him say this, Tong Yuanhang's eldest son and Tong Junqiang's eldest son immediately became energetic, and hurriedly came over: "Sister-in-law, can you take us with you, we also want to go fishing." ”
These two children, one fourteen and one twelve, are older than Zhang Wu, and they have long been bored at home, and Zhang Wu usually comes here to play when he is bored.
"Okay, then I'll get two more bamboos and make you a fishing rod too." Zhang Ze nodded and agreed, one is a belt, and it doesn't matter if there are two more.
As for the girls, they are not very interested in fishing, and they also have their own entertainment.
