Chapter 14 Hairtail Chu Xuan brainwashed Chu Feng, "Xiao Feng, what good things are you thinking? He is a swan in the sky, and I am a toad on the ground. To be a man, you must have self-knowledge. Look at my fat body, and look at this fat picture. Face, how can I be worthy of him? I still feel guilty because of designing him. Besides, I will not consider marriage until you are mature. "
Chu Feng was puzzled, "Why do you have to wait for me to become a useful person? When will I be considered successful?"
"When you become a sensible and responsible man, you will be successful. As for why I have to wait for you to become successful, it's because I am your sister! A sister is like a mother! Eat fish quickly and don't mention this matter again!"
Chu Xuan actually wanted to say, if I consider marriage before you become a successful person, it will bring harm to your husband's family.
Mu Chenze outside the courtyard wall stopped listening.
I feel a little irritated. After the swan was tricked and kissed by the toad, the toad didn't intend to take responsibility. Shouldn't the swan be happy?
Why do swans feel rejected by toads?
After returning home, I hurriedly ate a few mouthfuls of food and returned to the bedroom.
Qin Mahua and her husband Mu Qinlao murmured in a low voice, "Head of the family, have you noticed that our second child has been acting strange these past two days?"
Mu Qinlao was a carefree man, waving his hands repeatedly, "I didn't notice it. This guy got on the fishing boat and is as capable as before."
Qin Mahua felt that she was playing the piano to Niu just now, "I won't tell you anymore!"
He ran to chat with his eldest daughter-in-law, Pay Qing.
"Xiaoqing! I feel that something is wrong with the second child these two days. Could it be that he was a little bit overwhelmed after being rejected by Chu Xuan? How about we find a matchmaker to introduce him to someone?"
Fu Qing also noticed that my uncle's appetite has not been very good these two days, "Maybe I really can't think about it. Mother, why don't you find a matchmaker tomorrow..."
"Why are you waiting for tomorrow? I'll go tonight!"
A few minutes later, Qin Mahua carried a bag of presents and a flashlight, and headed towards Wang Matchmaker's house in a hurry...
At around six o'clock the next morning, Chu Xuan took two buckets and other tools and prepared to go to sea.
Chu Feng walked out of the bedroom with a bowl of malted milk, "Sister, drink a bowl first to relieve your stomach. When you come back, I will prepare breakfast."
He lost track of time while reading last night. He got up late this morning and failed to make breakfast for his sister in advance.
Chu Qing happily took it and drank it.
In her previous life, she was always thinking about her little brother, but in this life she feels his warmth.
More than 20 minutes later, Chu Xuan arrived at the beach. The tide had receded quite a bit.
There are quite a lot of people rushing to the sea, and they are basically picking up clams.
Even though clams can't be sold at a good price now, they can't stop the enthusiasm of people traveling to the sea.
However, Chu Xuan did not rush to pick it up, but first tried his luck in a place with many rocks.
After a while, I picked up a one-meter-long hairtail that weighed seven or eight catties.
The hairtail has lost its breath, but fortunately it is still relatively fresh, with bright red gills.
This kind of fish is a deep-sea fish. As long as it goes ashore, its internal organs will explode due to the pressure difference.
Usually people see mostly hairtails that have lost their breath.
This is a sea fish that Chu Xuan never tires of eating.
After putting the hairtail into the bucket, Chu Xuan couldn't help but think about the deliciousness of braised and dry-fried hairtail.
After turning over a few rocks, I found a palm-sized swimming crab.
The swimming crabs in this season are not fat, and because of the loss of a pincer, they can't be sold at a good price, so they are kept for Xiaofeng's tooth shop, and that guy has been greedy for swimming crabs for a long time.
Must be accepted.
Put in another bucket.
After all, the swimming crab still has a pincer, and she doesn't want the hairtail she cares about to be destroyed by it.
After searching among the rocks, I found two octopuses weighing about two to three kilograms and put them into the bucket.
The reef here is relatively large, and the sea water has not completely receded. This does not prevent Chu Xuan from stepping on the rocks to find seafood.
His eyes fell on the sea water.
She saw many hairtail fish.
happy!
She had never picked up so many hairtails in her previous life, and neither had anyone else.
Could this group of hairtails be a gift from God to her?
This is really good luck.
Pick it up! There will be no one else here.
Ten minutes later, I picked up two buckets full of hairtail fish.
As for the swimming crab, surrounded by dead hairtails, Chu Xuan didn't really care if it would cause damage.
When she walked towards the pier carrying two buckets, she received many envious eyes.
She picked up all the hairtails, and this was the only one.
Many sea hunters regret not going to the reef to find seafood. Hairtails are much more valuable than clams.
When we arrived at the dock, the hairtail was of good quality. Li Tong, who was collecting the fish, recognized Chu Xuan at a glance. He stepped forward to help carry the bucket and weighed it. It was 65 kilograms or three taels in total.
Li Tong was very surprised, this was the first time he saw so many hairtails picked up by the sea hunters. In the past, ocean-going fishing boats sold large quantities of hairtails...
Surprise is a surprise, and we have to settle the bill when it is due.
"Usually I collect hairtails of more than [-] taels at one yuan and three catties. Your hairtails are very big, and almost all of them are more than one catty. I will buy you at one yuan and five catties. How about it?"
Chu Xuan picked out the one-meter-long hairtail, "I won't sell this one. There are also swimming crabs and eight claws. I'll keep them for myself. The remaining hairtails are priced at 100 yuan each. How about that?"
Li Tong silently calculated the accounts. According to the purchase price of 65 yuan, 98 kilograms in three taels was [-] yuan. Chu Xuan took out the longest one, which would save [-] kilograms. This one cost more than [-] yuan.
"I can't make any money like this, so let's do this! The price is 90 yuan, how about it?"
Chu Xuan is not easy to fool, "No. The price is 95 yuan, and I won't sell it for less."
Li Tong glanced at the other fish vendors not far away who were eager to try, and could only nod heartily, "Okay. If you have good products in the future, you must sell them to me!"
"no problem."
In business, there must be room for bargaining.
The price satisfied Chu Xuan, so Chu Xuan didn't bother to switch to other fishmongers.
Li Tong counted out 95 yuan and handed it to Chu Xuan.
Villagers with gossips saw this scene and went back to the village to spread the word.
When Chu Xuan returned to the village, he heard the discussions of the villagers.
"Since the separation, Chu Xuan has been lucky."
"Yes! I had debts before the separation, and I am able to repay the debts after the separation. My mother also remits money to help build a new house. My life will definitely become more prosperous in the future."
"That Feng Chunhua just doesn't have a long-term vision..."
Chu Xuan didn't listen to the rest of the words.
More than 20 minutes later, I walked to the door of my house, stopped, and my eyes fell on the hairtail fish in the bucket.
Can't help but think, if Mu Chenze dislikes two or three catties of Spanish mackerel, he shouldn't dislike seven or eight catties of hairtail, right? Should I give him a fish to repay some of the favor?
I owed him so much in my previous life, and I owe him a lot in this life...
But she is also greedy for this hairtail, and she has never eaten such a long hairtail in her two lifetimes.
At this moment, she saw a familiar figure passing by, it was Mu Chenze.
Didn't he go out to sea with the boat today? The moment he saw him, Chu Xuan put his hand on the hairtail, lifted it up, and said unconsciously, "Mu Chenze, I'm sending you a big hairtail, which weighs seven or eight catties!"
I feel a little regretful that I can't enjoy the deliciousness of the big hairtail.
