Chapter 101: Ground Cage Net Harvest

~8 min read 1,441 words

Ye Mu didn't let Ye Fu go to sea, letting him rest for a few days, but the work at home couldn't be left behind. Choosing wood for the carpenter to make beams and so on must be handled by Ye Fu.

Fortunately, it was just a small cold, and it would be fine after the fever subsided. Ye Yaodong also took advantage of the break after lunch to row his small boat out to sea.

It had been a day since the ground cage was put down, and he wanted to see what was inside.

As soon as he arrived at the pier, he looked around and didn't see the new boat of the three. Thinking they should have gone to sea early in the morning, he rowed his small boat to the middle of the sea, the area where he put the ground cage. The surrounding sea area was only so big, so it was impossible to row wrong.

After finding the buoy of the ground cage, he stopped the boat and started pulling the ground cage. At first, he pulled the rope upward, and after the net grid was exposed to the sea surface, he grabbed the iron wire skeleton above the net grid and pulled them up one by one.

There were 16 nets in total, and he put two rows, 8 nets in each row.

The first net came up with nothing, only stone crabs, small sword shrimp, and small fish. He untied the fish collection net, poured the goods into the bucket, and continued to pull.

He pulled six nets in a row, and there were no big goods. They were all stone crabs, sword shrimp, eels, etc. He was not disappointed. These were all expected.

It was just that the seventh net actually exploded. Several large flower crabs actually entered. Ye Yaodong happily poured them onto the deck first, grabbed each one in his hand and went through it, finding that they were all hard, and each one was at least five liang.

These flower crabs added up to 8, and he estimated they were about 5 jin. Even if there were no goods behind, this trip was worth it.

But who would have thought that the eighth net also exploded, and there were actually two red paste crabs weighing more than a jin!

Thinking of prying open the shell, full of red paste, Ye Yaodong drooled. It was almost autumn, and the next season was the season to eat red paste crabs. At this time, red paste crabs were also the most delicious.

When pulling the second row, several nets in a row had no good things. Fortunately, the second to last net also exploded, with a large bass weighing more than 4 jin inside, and a green crab with a broken foot.

In their sea area, bass and green crabs were too common, and the size was not small.

It happened that he planned to leave a green crab for his father to nourish. This one with a broken big foot was just right. Originally, he thought about leaving a smaller red paste crab to take back, and his heart was already prepared to be scolded. Now there was this one with a broken big foot, which saved a scolding.

Sometimes you want to feel sorry for your family and leave them some good things. They are not ungrateful, just heartbroken, feeling that good things are wasted if they eat them themselves. The older generation has such thoughts.

He poured all the goods into a bucket. Originally, there were only two rows of ground cages, and there were not many goods. Excluding that 4-jin-plus bass, more than a dozen flower crabs, and 3 green crabs, the other goods added up to less than ten jin.

But collecting these big goods was already considered a big explosion. Ye Yaodong was very satisfied. These were already worth 5-6 yuan. After putting the ground cage back into the sea, he drove the boat back.

Because there were few ground cages, this trip only delayed more than an hour.

After selling all the valuable goods that could be sold, he carried the bucket and planned to take the remaining worthless small fish and shrimp home, and then go to the house. Who knew that as soon as he walked to the door, the children at home surrounded him, chattering.

"Dad, why are you back?"

"Third uncle, your friend sent a lot of seafood."

"Yes, yes, he is chatting with little aunt in the room."

"He is picking sand for little aunt."

Ye Yaodong asked suspiciously while walking, "Picking what sand? Who sent seafood? Didn't your little aunt help at the house? Why is she back?"

"Little aunt fell, and was carried back by your friend!"

"Ah? Carried back by my friend?"

He put down the water bucket with a confused face, ready to go to his mother's room, but the eldest nephew said, "They are at the back door."

He immediately stopped his feet and walked to the back door, only to see A Guang squatting in front of his little sister, holding a needle to pick sand grains for her.

Damn, why is this thing so familiar?

Didn't he just pick it for his wife last month?

Is it Pei Guang's turn to pick for Ye Huimei?

"Pei Guang, what are you doing!"

Ye Yaodong's eyebrows were so wrinkled that they could pinch a fly to death.

"Ah?"

A Guang's heart skipped a beat, actually calling him by his full name!

He pretended to be calm and said, "Your sister pushed the ash cart and fell. Her knees, elbows, and palms were all broken. I'm picking for her. Why are you so fierce?"

"Can't she pick it herself? Need you to be nosy!"

"How is this nosy? Is it easy to pick it yourself? Can she see her hand joints herself?"

"Go, go, go, don't need you." Ye Yaodong only felt that his actions were too dazzling, not as good as himself, and snatched the needle from his hand.

A Guang could only move to the side with regret.

After Ye Huimei looked at him, she said to Ye Yaodong, "Third brother, why are you back?"

"I took advantage of the break to go to the sea to collect the goods from the ground cage."

"Only a dozen ground cages, are there any goods?"

"It's okay, worth a few yuan. Why did you fall? Heard it was carried back by A Guang, this dick hair?"

A Guang glared, "Damn, how do you talk? Can you be more civilized?"

"You are there damn, damn, carried my sister, and told me to be civilized. Are you sick?"

Ye Huimei said awkwardly, "Third brother, what nonsense are you talking about? I fell again when I came back, and happened to see Brother Guangzi."

"So he carried you back?" Ye Yaodong glared at A Guang, "Can't you just help?"

A Guang touched his nose, "Just saw it at that time? In a hurry, it was not far from the door, and no one saw it."

"Why didn't you go to sea today, but instead near my house?" Ye Yaodong's eyes scanned him up and down like a searchlight.

Plus he came to his house to work so diligently some time ago, and sent melons and fruits every three days. Ye Yaodong suddenly suspected his motive!

A Guang glared and argued, "Don't be ungrateful. My father is back and brought some seafood. I specially sent some to you. After sending it, I was planning to go to your new house to see, so I happened to meet your sister."

"Your father is back?"

"Yes. Arrived home in the morning, so I came back from the sea."

"Oh, then you can leave after sending it!"

"Grass, crossing the river and tearing down the bridge, not even letting me drink a sip of tea?"

"Tea is in the hall, go drink it yourself, drink it and get out."

"You xxx, throw it away after using it, I'll go."

A Guang cursed twice, also felt guilty, and slipped away in a hurry.

After he left, Ye Yaodong handed the needle to Ye Huimei, "Pick it yourself, men and women should not touch, don't be silly and let a man pick it for you, and the trouser legs are rolled so high." ===== CHAPTER 102 =====
