Chapter 523: Is the money approved by the God of Wealth almost ready this year?
Lin Xiuqing lay there and rubbed her sore waist. The dog man kept pinching her waist from behind, which made her blush.
"Look at you, your milk is squirting all over the mat, bit by bit. You can wipe it off later."
Ye Yaodong lay there motionless.
"Who knew that I just pinched it a few times and it would spurt out like this? Didn't my daughter eat enough in the afternoon? No wonder her arms are like lotus joints. She eats so well. No wonder she grows so well. And are you sure it's just milk?
"
"If it's not milk, what else is there?" After Lin Xiuqing finished speaking, her hand that was wearing clothes paused for a moment, and then she got angry and rushed to hit him.
"Oh, you just finished having fun and you're going to murder your husband?"
"Shut up!"
Lin Xiuqing pinched his arm twice more, then got up and continued to put on her clothes. During this period, her eyes were like knives, and she kept throwing them at him.
Ye Yaodong put his hands behind his head and smiled like a sneaky cat, "I didn't say anything, why are you so excited? We are already an old couple..."
"If you don't speak, no one will think you are mute. Watch your daughter and don't let her fall out of bed. I will cook."
She glared at him, picked up all the banknotes scattered on the bed, then put them in the drawer and locked them.
It was already very late now. She was in a hurry to cook and had no time to sort out the banknotes. She made them all into one ball and stuffed them in.
As a result, she came in with a rag shortly after she went out, threw it on the bed, and said, "Wipe the mat clean!"
"You bitch are getting more and more upset. It's a rare day when the wind blows and I can't go out to sea. I've been out for most of the day and I'm almost dead from exhaustion. When I come back, I'm working to death again. Now you still have to order me to work."
Lin Xiuqing put her hands on her hips and glared angrily, "You're such a bastard, who's delaying my cooking? I'm not free right now, so who can you call me if I don't call you?"
"You are so good at talking. The mat has been wiped clean. Aren't you just dissatisfied and I pushed you on the bed and wanted to make me work and enslave me? If you have the ability, you can ride me!"
"Bah, shameless." Lin Xiuqing felt that she could no longer talk to this guy. The more she talked, the more shameless she became. She turned her face away and walked out.
Ye Yaodong shouted again: "How about just boiling some taro and eating it? It will save you the trouble of cooking rice and stir-frying. It's already very late."
"You also know it's late?"
"Ang? This fighting power is too strong. I can't do anything about it. Let's make it simple. Just cook the taro, peel it and dip it in fish sauce. You still have half the basket of taro that your father brought some time ago.
"
Lin Xiuqing only gave him a big look. His parents are eating here now, and they have brought a sack of rice. She just feeds them taro dipped in fish sauce?
At this time, a voice came from outside the house, which made Lin Xiuqing feel guilty.
"The porridge isn't ready yet? Get some dried fish, steam it, and eat whatever you want."
"Okay, I overslept in the afternoon and forgot to cook." She quickly explained in a loud voice and walked out.
"Well, I overslept too." Ye Yaodong's voice sounded from behind, causing her to stagger and almost fall to the threshold.
"Hey, you are such a big man, why are you walking so carelessly? You almost fell. You can watch the child while I steam a bowl of dried fish and fry some water spinach later." Ye Mu said quickly.
Ye Yaodong sat up and glanced at the door, then lay down again and snickered.
"Has A Dong come back? Are all those tapes sold out?"
"I just came back and was playing with my kids at home. The tapes are all sold out."
"It's good to sell them out. It saves space at home and worries about when he will come back to build another tape recorder..."
Listening to what was said outside, he just wanted to say that he was tired of watching TV and watching videos to the point of losing his temper, so what was the point of a tape recorder? If he wasn't thinking about his family, why would he have the desire to buy these?
He doesn't even want a TV. The black and white ones don't look good at all. Color TVs will be popular in a few years.
He whispered to Ye Xiaoxi who was lying in front of him chewing his fist: "Your father, I just want to buy a big refrigerator so that we can eat iced watermelon and iced grapes in the summer. Do you want to eat it? This is better than your pig's trotters."
tasty……"
As Ye Yaodong spoke, he poked the flesh on her arm with his hand, and it sank in with a slight press. It was super soft, pink and tender, and he just wanted to take a bite.
"Are you tired from lying down? Let's lie down and sleep together for a while? It will be a while before we have dinner."
Unexpectedly, as soon as he laid her down, she grabbed her own feet and stuffed them into her mouth and continued to chew on her toes, making a squeaking sound. Ye Yaodong's mouth twitched and he ignored her, just let her go.
How to chew.
Originally I just wanted to close my eyes and take a nap before getting up to eat, but unexpectedly I just lay down and fell asleep.
It was the drizzle of rain outside that woke him up. He half stood up and looked outside the house. It was already getting dark. He raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was only early six o'clock. He probably only
Slept for half an hour.
Maybe it was raining, which made the sky look dark, and even the light inside the house seemed a bit dim.
He saw the meat dumpling huddled up in the corner, and he didn't know when he fell asleep. There was an autumn rain and a cold. It was already a little cold after nightfall. He took the sheet he was wearing and covered the little guy, and then
Get up and get out of bed.
There were soft voices outside the house and the sound of clinking bowls and chopsticks. It must be that they were eating.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, everyone turned to look over. Lin Xiuqing stood up quickly, "I'm awake. I've warmed the food for you in the pot. I'll bring it to you."
"I can just do it myself. Why didn't you wake me up?"
"I've been very tired these past few days, and I just want you to sleep a little longer."
Ye Mu also said: "It just happened to rain again, so I can rest for two more days."
Ye Yaodong looked at the two of them strangely, "You seem to be looking forward to my rest? You used to wish that I would not be idle all day, otherwise I would rest at home for an extra week?"
Things are changing so fast now.
Mother Ye said angrily: "Your body is your capital. It's not worth it if you suffer it. Before, you were idle at home all day long. Of course I wish you could work all day long and half to death."
"Heh~"
His mother really told the truth...
The continuous light rain fell for four days before it stopped again. It started raining again within two days of the stop, and it continued intermittently for half a month before it completely cleared up again.
During this period, they also changed the mats and slept on sheets. When the weather cleared up, they took out the quilts to dry them. Ye Yaodong also wore thin cotton-padded jackets when he went to sea.
It's already late autumn in November, and it's getting cooler day by day, especially in the morning and evening. The sea temperature is even lower and colder, and the sea breeze is also cool. The weather is cold even if the sun comes out during the day.
Ye Yaodong felt that the midday sun was a little hot, so he took off his cotton-padded jacket and threw it into the corner. He only wore thin autumn clothes, which made it easier to work and more flexible.
"Dongzi, it should be almost ready to set up the net."
"Okay, I feel like there aren't a lot of goods recently. I dragged the three nets in front of me and there isn't much."
"With the cold weather, some have migrated, and some have begun to swim to the deep sea, so the number has gradually decreased."
"It's not easy, it's not easy..." Ye Yaodong shook his head and walked towards the stern of the ship.
"You have to do it even if it's not easy, and you can earn some money. Although we can't make as much money this year, we still have to keep doing what we should do, and we can earn some hard money, otherwise staying at home will only cost money."
Spending some money is equivalent to making money.”
Ye Yaodong did not refute. Although it was difficult to deal with and the goods were dwindling, you could still make some money by selling them, and you would still have something to eat.
Unlike in the future, when the price of diesel has skyrocketed, and the offshore resources have become less due to overfishing, the profit from a trip is not enough to make a loss. The bigger the ship, the more fuel it consumes, and at the same time, more boatmen are needed.
, of course, the losses are getting worse, and the local government subsidies are not enough to make losses.
They had already hauled three nets today, and they were all miscellaneous fish and crabs, nothing particularly valuable. He had no hope for this net either.
After pulling it up, I found that there was really nothing.
After dragging it to the deck, there were only about twenty kilograms of scattered goods inside. After deducting the useless small fish and shrimps, the rest was probably only for a dozen kilograms, and they were basically all worthless dragonhead fish.
There are only two large prawns and sea bass that are valuable. When combined with the previous ones, the prawns are not enough for a bowl, and the total is less than two kilograms. The other fish products are not very valuable either.
In the past, if the quality was not good, you could still rely on quantity, but now you can't even make up the quantity.
"It looks like our revenue today will hit a new low, dad. There are three or two kittens, and they can't even fit into two baskets of goods. I estimate they are only worth a few dollars. It's so fucked up. Should I let it go?"
The posture of the net is wrong? Let’s wait and see if the longline can collect more?”
Ye Yaodong picked through the goods inside and pulled out most of the useless small fish and shrimps.
Father Ye frowned when he saw it, "What does it have to do with the way you put the net? It's just that you were not very lucky today and there was too little cargo."
"Perhaps I have basically received all the money approved by the God of Wealth this year, and there will be less in the future."
While he was talking, he saw a seabird flying in the air, rushing down to grab the fish next to him without fear of death. He cursed and waved his hand to drive it away.
"You idiot, I won't be able to feed you even if I take it back to feed the ducks."
Father Ye was also amused by him now, "It's possible, then you can go back and pay more respects, beg more, and offer more sticks of incense."
"I don't know where there is a God of Wealth Temple, otherwise I would worship every day! It's a pity that the Mazu Temple has not been built yet, otherwise I would go and burn three sticks of incense every day."
"It's not that fast. The typhoon stopped the work again, and the rain stopped the work again. The area has expanded seven to eight times, and a high platform has to be built inside. It can't be built so fast."
"Well, it will definitely be built for Mazu's birthday next year, and it will be lively with hundreds of tables open by then."
"When the time comes, it will definitely be in the newspapers again, and our village will become famous again."
While they were talking, Ye Yaodong had already put all the fish into the basket. He held the useless fish and shrimps with both hands and threw them into the bucket, ready to take them back to feed the ducks.
"There's not much cargo today, let's go collect the longline fishing and then go back early, right?"
"Okay, come out tomorrow and try your luck."
