Chapter 25: Big Chunks of Ginger Stuffy Fish! It's cool!
"It's a bit of a cult thing to say that."
"Didn't Zhao Dahai go into the mangrove forest a few days ago?!"
"The mud snails and sea melon seeds that I picked up are the big ones."
"Now I've picked up so many more fish."
"Could it be said that Zhao Dahai is going to make a fortune?!"
Ma Hongyu remembered that when she passed by Zhao Dahai's yard a few days ago, she saw those mud snails and sea melon seeds drying on the dustpan. Zhao Dahai's father and mother had an accident, and the people in the village thought that a sixteen or seventeen-year-old hairy young man and a seventy-year-old woman would live well. That doesn't seem to be the case now.
"Who can say for sure?"
"But there is one thing to pay attention to, you must not offend Zhao Dahai."
"I've heard about Sun Minghua, right?!"
"In addition, I went up the mountain yesterday and saw that all the trees on the ground where Liu Bin planted Zhao Dahai's house had moved."
Lei Dayou reminded Ma Hongyu. It is impossible to say whether Zhao Dahai made a fortune, but there are signs. Such a person cannot be offended.
"Do you think I have to find time to come and talk to Zhong Cuihua or something?"
Ma Hongyu looked at Lei Dayou.
"Hmm."
"Gotta do this."
"It's better for you to do this."
Lei Dayou pondered for a while, nodded, Ma Hongyu found more opportunities to talk to Zhong Cuihua It is not a bad thing, maybe it will be easier to speak when she asks Zhao Dahai for help one day.
Zhao Dahai was busy cooking in the kitchen.
Mackerel is big, half a fish head is not small, wash it, drain the water, fry it in a large pot, fry it, add water to boil and roll for a while, the soup is thick and white, sprinkle a little salt, and put it in a large bowl. When marinating salted fish, each type of fish is left behind, and fresh fish is always the best. More than a dozen large and small fish add together to have four or five catties, before the pot, each fish knife back lightly smashed ten times, so that the fish meat is firmer, and it is more delicious when cooked. The pot is hot, put some oil, fry the fish, wash three or four pieces of egg-sized ginger and pat it into half pieces and put water together, cover the lid, simmer on low heat for about 20 minutes, add a little more and pour soy sauce, cook for a few minutes, do not collect all the juice, the remaining half, half soup and half fish, put it in a big bowl, steaming.
"Grandma!"
"Hungry!?"
"The meal is ready!"
"Let's eat now!"
Zhao Dahai looked at Zhong Cuihua who walked in, and immediately said to eat.
"Huh!"
"What are you cooking?"
"It smells so good!"
Zhong Cuihua saw that it was fish boiled, but it was really fragrant.
"Hee-hee-hee!"
"Grandma."
"Didn't you say that? Let's have a good meal today. ”
Zhao Dahai said as he set up the table, set up two low stools, two dishes of mackerel head soup and stewed miscellaneous fish, and two dinners.
Zhao Dahai filled the soup, put it in front of Zhong Cuihua, picked up another bowl and took a sip, his eyebrows raised, the fresh fish soup was very milky and thick, fresh and sweet, and the fish head was very gelatinous, and he took a sip of his mouth, and his upper and lower lips seemed to be stained with glue.
Zhong Cuihua looked at Zhao Dahai and wiped the corners of her eyes, these days are like a dream, the eldest grandson who has been a bastard for two years has grown up overnight, and people with diligent hands and feet can't be hungry, and no matter how difficult life is, they can go on.
"Grandma!"
"What's wrong?!"
After soaking in the sea and drinking a bowl of soup in one go, Zhong Cuihua looked at herself.
"Hehehe!"
"Nothing."
"Let's eat!"
"Eat more food in a busy day to have strength."
Zhong Cuihua picked up chopsticks and put a fish in Zhao Dahai's bowl.
"Okay."
"Let's eat together."
Zhao Dahai picked up the fish and put it in his mouth.
The large pieces of ginger can not only remove the fishy, but also have a fresh and spicy taste, the taste of soy sauce and salt, the water is boiled together, the thick soup, the fried fish is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the skin is burnt and the meat inside is smooth and tender, absorbing the soup, the taste is simply too good.
Zhao Dahai couldn't stop eating, put a fish in his mouth, pulled it out, and only one fish bone remained, holding a few large mouthfuls of rice, and sandwiched another fish.
Zhong Cuihua was thirsty for soup, and looked at Zhao Dahai from time to time, the wrinkles on her face were all smiles.
Zhao Dahai finished eating, cleaned up the table and chopsticks, slept for an afternoon, woke up at four o'clock in the afternoon, and saw Zhong Cuihua sitting in the hall weaving fishing nets again, and persuaded him to pay attention to rest, not to listen at all, so he could only give up.
Zhao Dahai walked out of the yard and went to the vegetable field behind the house, it was moist, it must have been when he went to the beach to pick up fish, grandma Zhong Cuihua watered the water, turned around, checked the fence, there was no problem, sprinkled the vegetable seeds and seedlings of the ground, a piece of tender yellow and tender yellow, three or five days or a week can be transplanted. I looked at the vegetable patches where beans and cucumbers were planted, and in some places there was a nail-sized piece of soil, and the seeds had already germinated, and it would not be long before I could see the sprouts emerging from the ground.
Zhao Dahai left the vegetable field, returned to the courtyard, and looked at the sea from a distance.
Hey?!
The waves are fewer and smaller!
Zhao Dahai immediately found that the white-headed waves on the sea were very scarce, and the wind blowing over became much smaller, and he looked at the small wharf in front of the village, and faintly saw a lot of people standing on the fishing boats from a distance.
Zhao Dahai turned over the salted fish drying on the dustpan, turned around and returned to the yard, took out the blue crabs in the big bucket, checked them, each one was alive, counted it, there were a total of fifteen pickled crabs, one butter crab, and the rest were ordinary cream crabs.
Zhao Dahai held the butter crab up and looked at the sky again, his whole body was clear yellow, and it was as good as gold.
"Hey!"
"Good stuff! Good stuff indeed! ”
Zhao Dahai carefully put it down. This butter crab is very valuable, not to mention those cream crabs, fifteen dying crabs may not be as good as this one.
Zhao Dahai was drenched with a little seawater, in the past two days, there were no fishing boats out to sea, and the price of fish, shrimp and crabs was the highest, so he would take it to the town early tomorrow morning and sell it.
I don't know how much it can be sold?
Zhao Dahai looked at the blue crabs in the big bucket and looked forward to how much money he could make.
Four o'clock in the morning.
Zhao Dahai got up early in the morning, cooked the porridge, ate two bowls, did not wake up Zhong Cuihua, packed the blue crab in the net bag, and walked lightly. Out of the door, strode along the village road.
"Yo!"
"The sea!"
"Why do you wake up so early?"
Lei Dayou picked up the fishing net, saw Zhao Dahai head-on, and greeted him.
"Let's go up town."
"Sell something!"
Zhao Dahai strode up to Lei Dayou, had to hurry up to the town, said hello, said a few words and turned to leave.
