Although Mr. Fu vowed to board a fishing boat and go fishing again, it was impossible to go there again today.
Even if he desperately wanted to go, Boss Lu would definitely knock him out and carry him away.
After lunch, these guys took turns teasing Little Baozi, and seeing that it was getting late, they said goodbye and left.
Before leaving, I asked the Lin family to buy some kelp, dried clams, snail meat sauce, etc.
Originally they wanted to buy some fresh seafood, but they still had to go to the county town. They were worried that the journey would be too long and they would die before they got home, so they had to comfort themselves: there would always be a chance to come back next time.
After sending away the guests, Xu Xiuyuan began to clean up the main room and found five large unity cards under the round table.
"This..." She looked at her niece helplessly, "Did they fall behind?"
Xu Suizhu understood at a glance: "It must be enough to pay for lunch."
Xu Xiuyuan couldn't help but sigh: "People in the city are too polite to give you money for a simple meal..."
"By the way, Sui Sui, I haven't given you the money for selling lobsters yet." Xu Xiuyuan saw the money, thought of it, and took out the money together, "Everything you have for lunch today is what you caught, and I can't accept this money."
, a total of two hundred, you have collected them all. Then buy building materials. When the fishing ground is free, ask your uncle to find some people to help you repair the house."
"Auntie, you should help me collect them. When the time comes to buy the materials, you and my uncle will have to help you. I don't know much about these things." Xu Suizhu said. She didn't understand at all.
Xu Xiuyuan thought about it and said, "I'll keep it for you. I'll give you the rest after the house is repaired."
"Is two hundred dollars enough to repair the house?"
In the morning, she went around the old house.
The key was rusty after not being used for a long time, so it took a lot of effort to open the courtyard door.
The yard was not much better. The thatch in the vegetable garden in front of and behind the house was above the knees.
She picked up the bluestone bricks that were not submerged in the thatch, and almost slipped on the moss on them.
The short walk of about ten meters made her nose sweat.
According to her aunt, the original owner has never returned to this home since her irresponsible mother ran away with another man.
The key has always been left at her aunt's house, probably because she was afraid of touching the scene.
A good family, because of Xu's father's accident, the family was gone in a blink of an eye.
The seaside is already humid, and coupled with the lack of ventilation for many years, the house has a musty smell.
When the door was opened, the door frame vibrated, causing dust to fall all over the ceiling.
Don’t sigh again: the foundation is sagging, the roof is tilted, and dust falls off at the slightest noise. It may require extensive repairs before it can be inhabited.
I'm thinking about taking a team to the provincial capital next month and checking out the information from Lingling Publishing House to see if there's any extra pleasure like translation, so I can get back to you.
Sooner or later, this area will be developed, and the dilapidated houses now will definitely become the golden ones that everyone is grabbing in ten years.
Not only would she not leave it alone, she would also transform it into an illustration for later generations of books and periodicals - blue bricks and black tiles, wisteria courtyard walls, an ancient well, and a swing.
The more Xu Suizhu thought about it, the more beautiful it became, and she had a lot more hopes for her future life.
"Girl, I think that house is in such a state of decay that it needs to be demolished and rebuilt if it can't be saved."
"Let's take a look first." Xu Xiuyuan said, "Your uncle has an acquaintance who can buy these building materials at the purchase price."
If you ask an acquaintance to buy it, you must give it a small gift, otherwise they will be happy?
Xu Suizhu looked forward to catching more valuable fish during the festival, so that her uncle would be proud to take them as gifts.
…
In that compartment, Li Youguo returned home humming a little tune while carrying the fish balls he bought while visiting the grassroots level.
His daughter-in-law Lu Yun was so surprised when she saw the fish balls in the small ocean pot that were white and fat like ping pong balls: "Yes, yes! That's it. Where did you buy it? That fish ball stall at the entrance of the market, the fish balls are so ugly.
Yes, the taste is just so-so.”
"I went on a field trip today and saw a fisherman eating homemade fish balls, so I bought the rest. Wait, I'll heat them up. Did you vomit today?"
His wife's fetus was too unstable to sit upright. She was still vomiting after eating for four months. Her round body before pregnancy was lost in weight.
If he had known earlier, he would not have wanted this child. But every time he went back to his hometown to celebrate the New Year, his parents would chase his wife and ask her why she was not pregnant yet.
Why do other families have to have another son even at the risk of being fined and losing their jobs? Three years ago, my eldest son went to the ditch with a group of relatives and drowned. It was natural that he could have another child, but he didn't...
I have been urging him for three years. This year, his job was transferred and he came to this southern city with a pleasant climate and beautiful scenery.
Away from the turmoil of her hometown, my daughter-in-law's depressed mood was relieved. After half a year of Chinese medicine treatment, she finally became pregnant again.
But it was already three months since she was pregnant, and she was still so uncomfortable, which made him feel heartbroken.
No, he should try his best to satisfy his wife. Not to mention that the fish balls are not expensive, even if they are extremely expensive, as long as his wife wants to eat them, he will be happy to buy them.
Within a few minutes, a tempting aroma wafted from the kitchen.
The snow-white rice fish balls are rolling up and down with the boiling soup.
Chop some green onions and sprinkle them on the soup
Lu Yun smelled the smell and couldn't help but urge: "Old Li, are you okay?"
"Okay, okay!"
Li Youguo responded, and then came out with two bowls of soup, and scooped four large fish balls into the soup bowl for his wife.
Lu Yun was really greedy. She took the chopsticks handed over by the man, picked up a fish ball and put it into her mouth.
“It’s so hot, so hot.”
Who told you to be in such a hurry that you can't blow on it before eating it?" Li Youguo was funny and distressed, "How is it? Doesn't it taste good? It is said to be made from freshly caught rice fish. I squeezed in ginger juice to remove the smell, and it doesn't smell at all.
Fishy smell."
Lu Yun was so hot that she burst into tears, but she couldn't bear to spit it out. It was so fresh! There was no fishy smell in her mouth, which whetted her appetite.
She had a complete meal for the first time since she was pregnant.
In the past, I would run out to vomit after eating half of the food. After vomiting, I would still have the appetite to eat.
"Lao Li, these fish balls are good. They are fresh and chewy, and they are elastic when chewed. All in all, they make you appetite." Lu Yun sighed with satisfaction after finishing the meal, wiping her mouth.
"It's good to have an appetite!" Li Youguo was so happy that he almost burst into tears. "If you want to eat it, I'll buy it from the fisherman next time."
"Hmm. By the way, let's see if there are any scallops for sale. I suddenly want to eat scallop vermicelli."
"..."
Isn’t it a great effect to whet your appetite?
However, Li Youguo was eager for his wife to have something special to eat, so how could he refuse to agree: "Scallops shouldn't be hard to come by. I'll pick out some big ones for you later."
The next day, Li Youguo went to the unit to submit a preliminary inspection report on the fjord fishery, and discussed with the leader the shortcomings of the current operating model of the fjord fishery. After completing the application, he went to the fishery again for in-depth investigation.
The leader patted him on the shoulder happily: "Xiao Li, if our province's coastal development project gets strong support from the central government this time, you will have done a lot of credit!"
Li Youguo felt a little guilty.
The reason why he was so proactive was to solve his wife's morning sickness.
But never slack off at work.
Of course, it would be even better if he could find some fresh seafood that would whet his wife's appetite after he was done with the business!
The Lin family didn't know that their unintentional fish ball business had brought them a long-term customer...
