Chapter 10: I Really Want to Repair the Ship!
Zhao Dahai came home in the dark, grandma Zhong Cuihua sat in the hall and weaving nets, as long as the people in the village are not lazy, they are busy every day.
Zhao Dahai walked into the kitchen and began to cook, the oyster meat that had just been pried off the reef had to be washed, or when he didn't eat it, a mouth was full of small gravel or the scum of the oyster shell, he fetched the water, washed it carefully several times, washed the oyster meat, put the water on the basket and drained it for a while, boiled the oil in the pot, poured it down, under the dim light, the sticky and slippery dark gray oyster meat suddenly turned white and bulged all of a sudden, a fresh smell rushed up, I couldn't help but swallow the saliva violently, the fire burned violently, it was cooked in less than five minutes, no salt was sprinkled, and some soy sauce wine was poured, smoked firewood, extinguished the fire, packed two large bowls of rice, and even the oyster meat with juice directly on the rice, and walked to the hall with grandma Zhong Cuihua for one bowl.
Delicious!
It's so delicious.
Fragrant!
It's so fragrant!
Zhao Dahai was full and hiccuped, people are iron rice and steel, and he is hungry and panicked if he doesn't eat a meal, and it is really beautiful to eat and drink.
Eight o'clock in the evening.
The sun rises and the sun sets.
The fishing village slowly quieted down.
Zhao Dahai walked out of the yard and looked up at the sky, the clouds were very thick tonight, the moon didn't know where to hide, there was no light, the surroundings were pitch black, the wind was a little strong, and the treetops made a whining sound.
Zhao Dahai took a flashlight, walked along the village path, and unconsciously walked to the small pier by the sea. There was no moonlight, the sea was as black as ink, and the small fishing boats that were parked swayed and undulated with the waves.
Zhao Dahai patted his head, a few days ago, he had been thinking about repairing the fishing boat left by his father and mother to go out to sea to fish and make money, turned around and walked behind the beach, through a small forest, there were seven or eight fishing boats parked in the clearing, this is the place where some old fishing boats are parked in the village, swept it with a flashlight, found it immediately, strode over, reached out and touched the board, tears welled up, and it took a while to calm down the good mood, the facts cannot be changed, live a good life, This is what Daddy and Lady want to see most in the Heavenly Spirit.
Zhao Dahai flashlight, carefully looked at the fishing boat, as he thought before, when the accident occurred, he sank in the sea for half a year and then the beach was exposed to the wind and sun for two years, and the boat board was damaged a lot, but the main beam of the fishing boat and most of the boat board were fine, relieved, it was not complicated to repair.
"The sea baby."
"What are you doing here?"
Zhao Dahai looked back, someone walked towards him with a flashlight in his hand, carefully thought about the familiar voice he heard, and thought of a person.
"Second grandfather?"
Zhao Dahai shouted.
"Hey!"
"It's me!"
Zhao Dahai waited for a while, and an old man with white hair and hunched waist walked in front of him, it was his grandfather's younger brother Zhao Shi, but he had already divided the family, and his grandfather was seriously ill and left before he was sixty.
"Third grandfather!"
"You're here?"
Zhao Dahai stretched out his hand to help Zhao Shi.
"Huh!"
"After eating, nothing happened, I walked to the dock, I just saw you, come and have a look."
Zhao Shi looked at the upside-down fishing boat and sighed.
"Second grandfather."
"I'm going to fix the ship."
Zhao Dahai knew that Zhao Shi saw him walking behind the forest, he was not at ease, worried that he had done something stupid, and came with him, but he didn't say it, pretending not to understand Zhao Shi's thoughts, and the flashlight shone on the fishing boat and said his plan.
"Did you go out to fish?"
"That's a boat."
"Your father and mother left this boat, but it was broken and some boards were broken, and it can be repaired."
"However, no matter what it is, it will take eight thousand to do."
Zhao Shi was silent for a moment and nodded.
"Earn slowly."
"Sooner or later, we'll be able to make it up."
Zhao Dahai knows that it costs a lot of money to repair the fishing boat, it is difficult to make money in a place like a fishing village, there is no pillar of home, whether you can eat enough is a problem, not to mention saving money, the past two years have been tight, Zhong Cuihua must not have a lot of money in his hands, the money for repairing the ship has to find a way by himself, eight thousand is not a small amount, he only has a few hundred yuan in his hand to sell crab goby fish last time, but he is not in a hurry, as long as he works hard, he can save enough money sooner or later.
Zhao Shishen nodded and did not speak.
Zhao Dahai and Zhao Shi walked back together, arrived at the entrance of the village, and went home.
Five o'clock in the morning.
In the summer of the fishing village, the sky dawns early, and a trace of fish belly is already showing a trace of fish belly white on the horizon.
The chickens are out looking for food, and the dogs are scurrying around the village.
Zhao Dahai carried a bucket full of water to the back of the house, the sea is windy, the water is dissipated quickly, and the land planted yesterday has to be watered before the sun rises.
After Zhao Dahai finished watering, he carried an empty bucket, and when he entered the yard, he saw Zhao Shi and his grandmother Zhong Cuihua talking.
"Second grandfather."
"You're here so early?"
"We'll have breakfast later."
Zhao Dahai was a little strange, and he didn't know what Zhao Shi was doing here. In the village, the family is divided, and the days are passed by their own, although it is said that the blood relationship between the broken bones and the tendons, but the days are hard haha, every day is busy, generally speaking, there is nothing that will not come to the door.
Zhao Shi shook his head and said that he had already eaten it.
"The sea."
"Second grandfather said you want to fix that ship?"
Zhong Cuihua waved at Zhao Dahai.
Zhao Dahai nodded, put down the bucket in his hand, walked to Zhong Cuihua and sat directly on the ground, and told Zhao Shi last night that he wanted to repair the boat and go to sea to fish.
"Old sister-in-law."
"What do you think?"
"Life in this sea is not pleasant!"
Zhao Shi patted his knees with both hands and sighed.
"The sea."
"What did you think about at first glance?"
Zhong Cuihua didn't reply to Zhao Shi's words immediately, but turned her head to look at Zhao Shi.
"Grandma."
"Life in this sea is really unpleasant."
"It's hard work."
"Maybe something happens like my dad and my mother."
"Second grandfather."
"Who told our ancestors to choose such a place?"
"Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, we can only eat the sea by relying on the sea."
"Fishing is the best way to make money."
"I'm afraid it's useless."
"You have to eat, right? You can't go hungry, can you? This can also kill people. ”
Zhao Dahai sighed in his heart, Zhao Shi did not agree to go out to sea to fish by himself, worried that the matter of his father and mother would happen again, and his grandmother Zhong Cuihua was also worried.
Going out to work?
Here's the way.
However, grandma Zhong Cuihua is over seventy years old, and she is not worried that she will stay alone in the village.
Not to mention, you can earn a lot of money by working part-time.
In the past few years, no one has gone out to work in the village, and there are still a lot of people.
There is no knowledge and no culture, and those who go out to do heavy physical work such as moving bricks or entering electronics factories and the like.
Which one of them came back with a lot of money?
I have seen the village 20 years later, and I can see clearly the fate of going out to work, the old people in the family can't provide for it, and the children born have lost discipline, and when they are old, they return to the village, and find that they have fallen into a problem, in order to build a small western-style building?
Is it really worth it?
What's so bad about nesting in the village?
Fishing and making money in a down-to-earth manner, adding up a lot, the small western-style building is only a few years late, serving grandma, cutting off Hu Ding Xiaoxiang to marry a good wife and give birth to a group of babies, isn't this kind of day fragrant? Do you have to leave your homeland?
