Chapter 292: First Time Going to Sea After the New Year

Listening to the exclamations in his ears, Ye Yaodong also accelerated his digging movements, not to be compared by his son.

The sand clams dug out were thrown aside by him, piled up in the open space.

Starfish ravaged a few months ago, and there were no clams on the beach for a long time. After a few months, the clams in the outer sea were constantly washed in and buried under the sand.

Before a while, a small pile piled up beside him, like a small mountain, digging without any effort.

Just at this time, Ye Chengyang suddenly screamed, "Crab... crab ran away... Dad... crab ran away..."

Ye Yaodong turned his head and saw that there were crabs crawling everywhere around, and two were still hanging on the edge of the water bucket, two big pincers clamping each other, one hanging in mid-air, and instantly both fell down.

"Ah? Ran away in the blink of an eye?"

Maybe it was because the water bucket was too full, and they stacked high and broke out.

It was just picking up some seafood, the bucket he brought was not as big as the one he brought when he went to sea in the past, just the red plastic bucket common in the family.

He caught the crabs crawling everywhere back into the bucket, and by the way, put the dug clams in, full, already 80% full.

Just came out for a stroll, and there was a bucket, which was very good.

Seeing the crabs in the bucket stacking high again, he shouted to the two cubs: "Go, don't dig, go home."

"So fast, just came out, play for a while, Dad, I haven't dug much."

"It's already a full bucket, if you don't take it back to the pot, the crabs will run again, and you won't have anything to eat at noon. Hurry up, I told you to dig before, you didn't dig, now you are energetic..."

Ye Chenghu dug two more unwillingly, and was picked up by Ye Yaodong. "Wait a minute... my gaga (sand clam)..."

Local children are called sand clams as gaga...

After putting the few he dug into the bucket, he followed behind unwillingly to go back.

"Went back so fast... Dad, when will we come to dig gaga again?"

"Next time."

"When is next time?"

"See if I have time, have a mood?"

Ye Chenghu whispered: "Then I will come secretly..."

Ye Yaodong didn't care about him, just urged them to walk faster.

Although adults don't let children go to the beach, they can't watch them. The door is the sea, especially in summer, there are no children who don't play with water, and the children nowadays are also stocking.

Just walked to the shore, and saw his old mother chatting hotly with people in the open space in the distance, her mouth smiling and unable to close, and I don't know what is so worth being happy about.

He shouted at her directly, a full bucket of seafood, half of which was crab, he couldn't finish it, let her take some back.

Ye Mother looked at the bucket of crabs that was almost full, and said in surprise: "So many crabs on the beach today?"

"There are other messy things underneath."

"It's convenient to live here. When the tide recedes, you can go to the beach. Look, you can pick up a full bucket whenever you want, not on the first or fifteenth day of the lunar month. It's just that you have to go early." The one who spoke was his new neighbor's mother.

Ye Yaodong smiled. "Just idle is idle, just when the tide recedes, take the two children down for a walk. They are all worthless things, does Aunt Lan want to take some back?"

"No, there is a pile of shrimp and crabs every day when returning from sea at home, no time to peel, eating this is troublesome, where do I have this leisure..."

Don't want it, he carried it to the back door, took a washbasin from the back door to pour, gave a few to his Big Brother and Second Brother's house, his old mother didn't want it either, his dad and Second Brother went to sea, and there were only her and the old lady at home.

Lin Xiuqing heard the movement at home and knew he was back. She peeked at it, and only felt relieved after confirming it before coming out of the room.

Ye Mother saw her, and reached out to touch her belly, and said in a low voice: "Can't see it?"

"Wrapped in a cotton-padded jacket, it's fine if you don't look carefully."

"Then don't go out, Dongzi should go to sea if he should go to sea. There are still two months, so he can't stay at home and play all the time. Tomorrow and the day after are good days, both can go..." Ye Mother nagged.

Ye Yaodong responded casually, picked out the blue crabs separately, kept them for stewing for the two in the evening, and there were sea urchins and fish, clams were also picked out, and other goods were directly washed with seawater, and steamed in a pot later, which was easy.

"You don't have to cook at noon, just eat here, bring the old lady down, what to cook for two people, waste firewood."

"Okay, then I'll cook, Aqing go back to the room, people come and go at the door..."

"I have already cooked rice, and plan to stir-fry mustard greens rice, meat and mustard greens are cut..."

"Then I'll stir-fry..."

Eating mustard greens rice on the third day of the third lunar month is a local custom. It is not yet time, but the mustard greens planted by their own family have grown very large, and they can cut one in advance to stir-fry mustard greens rice.

This is also very popular, the whole family likes to eat it very much, the two children ate a full bowl of mustard greens rice with steamed sea urchin eggs, shouting that they want to eat it in the evening.

In the evening, Ye Yaodong had to go to the vegetable plot next to it to cut one, but when he entered the house, he saw his Big Brother back, followed by Ye Chenghai with his shoulders slumped and life-less.

He raised his eyebrows. "Yo? Finished the big event, earned big money and came back? Did you buy anything to be filial to Third Uncle?"

Ye Chenghai had a crying face, showing a smiling face uglier than crying, "Third Uncle, don't mock me..."

"Didn't you say that, you can do big things without studying?"

"I was wrong, I almost crawled back..." He saw the recliner at the door and sat down directly, his limbs hanging naturally.

"How much money did you earn today?"

"1 yuan..."

"Not bad, go again tomorrow, work for a month and you will have 30 yuan, work for a year 365 yuan, work for ten years 3650 yuan, work for a lifetime and you can earn 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, awesome, work a few more years than others for nothing..."

When Ye Chenghai heard him say work a few more years than others, his face turned pale, and he almost slipped to the ground. "Ah!! No no no... I love studying..."

Ye Yaodong almost laughed to death, pretending to be surprised: "What's wrong, earning money is not good."

"I almost lost my life... my dad still told me to finish it... own dad... woo woo woo... I also walked a long way back... I love studying, I want to go to school..."

Others playing in the house also ran out one after another and asked: "Did Brother Ahai earn a lot of money?"

"Brother Ahai, is the pier fun?"

"Big Brother is too amazing, can earn money like Dad..."

"Is Big Brother going to treat us, ask us to buy things to eat..."

Ye Chenghai said with tears in his eyes, "Get out!"

Ye Yaodong patted his head. "Studying is the most comfortable, cherish it, teenager, Third Aunt will stir-fry mustard greens rice in the evening, I'll give you a bowl later."

"Thank you, Third Uncle." He said weakly.

After Ye Yaopeng had time to go to sea at night, he didn't need Ye Father's help.

Ye Yaodong thought about it and went to tell his dad after the meal, let him prepare, they also go to sea at night, let his mother look at his place more during the day.

Originally wanted to stay at home for two months, but now he couldn't bear the urging, and it was easy to be asked if he stayed at home without going to sea.

Without preparing fish bait in advance, you can also drag the net.

When sleeping at night, Ye Yaodong kept stroking her belly, not at ease.

I don't know if it was thinking about it during the day and dreaming about it at night. At night, he actually had a dream, dreaming that Lin Xiuqing had a miscarriage in his previous life and was carried back, her face pale. After he woke up, he sat up directly, and his heart ached when he thought about it.

"Is it time?" Lin Xiuqing was also woken up by the movement beside her.

He looked at his watch, it was exactly 2 o'clock. "Mm, you sleep yours."

Just a dream, it should be fine if you don't go to the mountains in this life.

Already agreed with his dad, and couldn't just not go because of a dream.

Before going to bed, he moved the fishing net and tools to the cart, just bring some food and clean water.

Going to sea on the first day of the New Year, Ye Yaodong also attached great importance to it. On the way to the pier, he would pass by the Mazu Temple first, and he specially stopped to go in and light three pillars of incense first.

Some more superstitious people will go in and light three pillars of incense every time they go to sea, and then light three pillars of incense when they return.

After arriving on the boat, Ye Father also took out yellow paper and lit it, circling his head three times, circling three times on the left and right hands, muttering words in his mouth, which was a prayer.

Ye Yaodong himself is fine, young people pay less attention, old people are particularly superstitious.

After the ritual was completed, he went to drive the boat, and Ye Father also went to organize the fishing net.

The fishing boats at the pier were also driving out one after another.

The sea breeze in early spring was still biting cold, but fortunately he had experience and didn't take it lightly, wearing a needle-and-thread hat and a scarf, and also wearing a mask sewn by Aqing, blocking the wind. It made Ye Father look at him a few more times.

He touched his pocket and took one for his dad. "Try it, it's good to block the wind, so the wind doesn't hurt your face."

Ye Father nodded.

Going to sea for the first time in the New Year, he planned to go to the sea area he went to most often, but when he arrived, he found that there were already fishing boats working there, so he had to change direction temporarily, shift to the side, and let his dad prepare to cast the net.

Drag the net while avoiding, to avoid unnecessary trouble, and also afraid of few goods.

But who would have thought that when the fishing boat was working, he unknowingly drove the boat to the isolated island of the oarfish.

He uncertainly shone with a flashlight back and forth, only to confirm that it was the isolated island, and when he shone, he also found that the reef that sank before actually popped out a sharp head again, about one meter or so.

Underwater reefs are hard to guard against, especially at night, it is pitch black everywhere, fortunately found in advance, otherwise it might hit it later, that would be finished.

"Dongzi, that is a reef..."

"I saw it, it is the reef where the abalone went ashore collectively before. I didn't expect that the reef that sank would pop out again in a short time. Let's drive over to see after finishing the net."

Otherwise, the fishing net is easy to be hooked by the reef and damaged.

"Is it the abalone reef? Did it rise again?" Ye Father's heart suddenly became hot.

"Right, wait a while and then go over, drag the net nearby first."

It was dark and couldn't see the situation clearly. ===== CHAPTER 293 =====
