"Huh?"

"What's going on?"

……

"Looks like I've been cleaning the house all day."

……

"Who knows?"

"A baby without a father and a mother. Poor thing! ”

……

"Humph!"

"The Prodigal Son? In a few days, I had to steal chickens and dogs again! ”

……

There are people around, all day busy cleaning up the house, all of them are a village, it is impossible not to attract attention, especially when the fire is burning, the movement is big, it is the time for dinner, they all come out and point and point.

Zhao Dahai ignored it, turned around and walked back to the courtyard, closed the door, far away, couldn't hear clearly, but there was definitely nothing good to say, in the past two years, I had heard too much.

Who calls themselves bastards?

Bastards have no human rights!

It's normal to point and say a few ugly words.

Zhao Dahai walked into the kitchen, lit a handful of hay and stuffed it into the stove, put small chopped firewood on the shelf, added water to the pot, and began to cook.

"The sea."

"Come on."

"You have the money!"

"Tomorrow I'll go to town and buy something to eat!"

Zhao Dahai saw Zhong Cuihua walk in with a smile on his face, dragged five yuan in his hand, and handed it over, just now someone outside the yard shouted to collect the fishing nets, this must be the wages for the fishing nets that have been completed.

"Hey!"

"Grandma!"

"What are you doing here?"

"I'm eighteen."

"I want to spend it and earn it myself."

"You have the money!"

Zhao Dahai shook his head, put a low stool beside him, and pulled Zhong Cuihua to sit down.

"Good, good!"

"Grandma has it for you. When you give up, you have to tell your grandmother, if you don't need it, I'll save it for you, marry your daughter-in-law, or buy candy for my eldest great-grandson to eat. ”

Zhong Cuihua smiled, sat down slowly with her hands on her knees, and added firewood to the stove casually.

Zhao Dahai was a little crying and laughing. It is barely reasonable to save money to marry a daughter-in-law, but this great-grandson buys candy and eats it very far.

"Okay!"

"Grandma."

"Then you have it. After two years, I married a daughter-in-law and gave birth to three or five, and I will take you to play. ”

Zhao Dahai said with a smile that this is Zhong Cuihua's greatest hope.

Zhong Cuihua smiled so much that she couldn't even see.

Zhao Dahai cooked a good meal, there was no vegetables at home, mixed some salt, filled his stomach, thought about it, and told Zhong Cuihua that he would go out in a while, and the tide would ebb at nine o'clock tonight, and get something to eat.

Zhong Cuihua nodded, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and the sea to eat the sea, catching the sea is a common thing, the dishes that the people in the fishing village don't eat on the table are all pulled in the sea, they are too old to do this, Zhao Dahai turns around and gets something to eat.

Zhao Dahai finished washing the dishes, cleaned up the kitchen, and returned to the hall, Zhong Cuihua had already prepared a net bag, bucket and flashlight, and a pair of liberation shoes were placed on the ground.

"Grandma!"

"The tide is almost over!"

"I'm out!"

Zhao Dahai said as he changed his shoes. Zhong Cuihua is weaving a new fishing net, the people of the fishing village, there is no retirement talk, as long as you can do it, you have to keep doing it, when you are not idle, you don't stop it, it's useless to stop it, look at it yourself, don't be too tired.

"Hey!"

"Good!"

"Be careful."

Zhong Cuihua nodded, took the net shuttle and smoothed it in her hair, and continued to weave fishing nets.

Zhao Dahai picked up the bucket, put the net bag inside, took the flashlight, walked out of the yard, and strode towards the small wharf in front of the village.

The moon hung in the sky so bright that there was no need for a flashlight.

Zhao Dahai looked left and right while walking, and saw a small pit with a few small stones that had accumulated a little water, and walked over quickly, the low tide was gone, and the small fish, shrimp, and crabs who didn't have time to run chose to hide in such a place and wait for the next high tide.

Zhao Dahai borrowed the moonlight, and saw some horizontal and vertical paw prints around the stone, lightly moved the stone, the water mixed for a while, and soon became clear, a stone crab lay motionless, a common crab in places with stones on the seaside, not big, generally two or three fingers big, the fist in front of him, is already quite large, is an old crab.

Zhao Dahai pressed the back of the crab with his index finger and middle finger together, quickly pressed into the mud and sand, touched the hard bottom, thumb down, pinched the crab belly, grabbed it, washed off the mud with the seawater in the puddle, tore open the mouth of the net bag, and threw it in, this was the first harvest of tonight. No one buys such a thing in the vegetable market in the fishing village, but it tastes good when you grab some and eat it yourself.

Zhao Dahai continued to walk forward, specifically looking for the same small pit with stones, in about two hours, caught more than 20 stone crabs of all sizes, picked up a small half catty snail, good luck, a larger puddle trapped five or six small aconitum fish with two fingers, it took a lot of effort, all caught, watched the tide almost rise, turned around and walked to the shore.

Zhao Dahai walked to the shore, found a place at the bottom of the sand, dug a small pit, seeped into the sea water for a while, washed his legs and liberation shoes that were full of mud, looked at the reef area not far away, shook his head, climbed up when he was just reborn last night, and almost jumped down.

Zhao Dahai went ashore, sat on the beach, rested, watched the sea water slowly rise, and his brows slowly twisted.

It's not difficult to eat at the beach, just took advantage of the low tide, turned around, and the miscellaneous seafood is enough for me and my grandmother to eat two meals, but I can't eat these every day, not to mention, I have to have money to buy rice, flour, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar - these things I caught can't be sold for money.

How can I make some money?

Weaving fishing nets?

You can make some money. However, I can't hold up my home.

The small tide did not recede far, and the sea rose very fast, and it didn't take long for the waves to hit the beach.

Zhao Dahai looked at the small wharf in the village, in the dark, the stars were lit with lights, and there was a faint sound of talking, these were fishing boats preparing to go out to sea to fish.

Living in a seaside fishing village, if you are diligent and fast, if you are not picky, it is really not difficult to get some food to fill your stomach, but it is not easy to make money. There is not much land, so I can only grow some vegetables, and I have to buy rice. Only do odd jobs or go out to sea to fish.

Odd job?

In the past two years, I have been too lazy to steal chickens and touch dogs, and I have a bad reputation, and it is unlikely that anyone will be willing to invite.

Catch fish?

At the age of ten, he began to go to sea with his own Lao Tzu, and he had no shortage of fishing skills, but he had to go to sea with a fishing boat.

Fishing vessel?

Buying one?

That's not a small amount.

It took generations of hard work to save money and tighten their belts to make it possible.

I'm poor now.

Don't even think about it.

However, they have their own fishing boats.

Lao Tzu Zhao Datie, a famous fisherman in more than a dozen villages within a radius, more than ten years of hard work, the first to build a tile house in the village, and the first to buy a fishing boat, don't look at just seven or eight meters of wooden fishing boats, this is the most important asset of the fishing village fishermen, a tool to make money, no worse than buying a Santana at this time. When fishing villages go to sea, they are generally husband and wife boats. Since her wife got married, she has gone out to sea with Lao Tzu to fish, and her husband sings and follows her wife, coming and going in the wind and rain. I got on the fishing boat when I was five or six years old, and I always wanted to grow up a little more, the father and son fished together, and the old lady could rest at home, who knew that the sky did not follow people's wishes, and on the birthday of the sixteenth year, the father and mother went to sea and never came back. After half a year, the people in the village took advantage of the great ebb tide and dragged it back with great effort.

After the fishing boat had an accident, it sank into the sea for half a year, and then the wind and sun on the beach for two years, there must be many places that are broken, and now it is definitely not possible to go to sea, but it can be repaired, and it takes a lot of money to buy a boat, and it will save a lot of money to repair the boat. With a fishing boat, you can go out to sea and make money by fishing.

Zhao Dahai became excited.
