Chapter 48 What’s going on between you and her?
"Mother, shouldn't you first ask me if I paid back my capital today and how much money I made? Why are you suddenly meddling with Chu Xuan's family?"
When Mu Chenze spoke, he stared at Qin Mahua's face, afraid of missing her facial expressions.
Qin Mahua didn't even look at Mu Chenze, "Aren't I working at Chu Xuan's house to earn money? I'm only as good as she is!"
Mu Chenze continued to test, "She rejected my marriage proposal. Shouldn't you be angry with her? Didn't you go to work at her house to cause trouble? Are you really doing it to make money?"
Qin Mahua slapped him on the back, "Don't think I don't know. Chu Xuan refused to marry because he didn't want Feng Chunhua to suck our family's blood through her in disguise."
"How did you know that?"
Mu Chenze never explained this to her at all, he only told Ji Ping.
That was something I had no choice but to say. Ji Ping refused to take on the job of delivering skinned fish without a clear explanation at the time.
Could it be that Mother learned about it from Ji Ping?
Qin Mahua walked into the main room, poured herself a cup of tea, and took a few sips leisurely, "I went to find Ji Ping."
Mu Chenze, who followed the main room, almost tripped over the threshold and tried to steady his figure.
What did Ji Ping tell his mother? When Ji Ping's boat docked, he had to ask.
"Mother, you went to find Ji Ping, why didn't Ji Ping mention it to me? When did you find it?"
Add water to your mother's teacup.
Qin Mahua grabbed the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp. "I found him after he returned home from delivering fish to Chu Xuan yesterday afternoon. I asked him about some things."
Mu Chenze pretended to be calm, "What did you ask?"
"I asked him why he supplied Chu Xuan. Didn't he know that Chu Xuan rejected my second child? After he explained it to me, I realized that Chu Xuan was wrong. I don't think that Chu Xuan is a girl with a hard life, and she can't be me. Daughter-in-law, you can also be a relative. After all, Feng Chunhua forced you to have her first kiss, so it will be difficult to find a partner in the future. I found a reason to inquire about Gao Meijuan and went to Chu Xuan's house. Gao Meijuan is at her house Killing fish to make money, I will sit down and help out naturally, and you will know what happened later."
When she finished speaking and looked up, her son was nowhere to be seen.
However, when she mentioned the word first kiss, Mu Chenze blushed, not wanting to be seen, and hid in the bedroom as quickly as possible.
Qin Mahua glanced at her son's bedroom and sighed, "This child! I can't stop worrying about him!"
Get up, walk to Mu Chenze's door and knock on the door, "Why are you running out of the house? Can you charter a car with Chu Xuan? Charge her less fare..."
Mu Chenze had already adjusted his mood, opened the door, and with a carefree smile on his face, he handed over a thick wad of money, "Yes! You can charge her as much as you want for the fare! I'm not going back to the room to take the money and pay you ?"
It's good if we chartered a car together and passed Minglu.
If your mother takes the initiative to bring this up, you can avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.
"Then charge ten yuan for the fare!" Qin Mahua took the money and counted it up for a while, "Seven thousand and eight hundred yuan, Ozawa, you earned two thousand and eight dollars a night! Good job! How much money do you plan to buy tonight? I'll count the money."
"3000 yuan!"
"it is good."
Mu Chenze didn't mention to her that there was no danger in the early morning.
If she knew about it, she would inevitably be frightened.
He took 3000 yuan and put it in his pocket, "Mom, I won't be at home for dinner tonight. I will talk to Ji Ping and eat at his house."
I don’t want to mention Chu Xuan going to cook.
Qin Mahua didn't doubt that he was there, "Got it! There's lunch left in the stove, hurry up and eat it!"
"it is good."
After eating, Mu Chenze had nothing to do, pulled the cart, went to the pier and waited to pick up his father and elder brother.
By chance, he met Ji Ping who was returning from the sea.
Ji Ping's boat is a mechanized wooden boat about ten meters long, and he usually goes fishing alone.
Haven't thought about categorizing yet.
Mu Chenze helped him unload the goods, and borrowed a few large pots from Li Tong to sort them.
More than 400 kilograms of skinned fish were left behind, and the rest was sold.
A dozen relatively large bass, more than 100 kilograms of octopus, more than 60 kilograms of Spanish mackerel, and a few kilograms of small miscellaneous fish...
I sold it for more than 220 yuan, and after deducting the cost of sailing the boat out to sea, I had more than 180 yuan left.
Ji Ping looked happy, and he had a good harvest today.
I can usually earn dozens of yuan, up to 100 yuan.
Mu Chenze waited for him to finish settling the bill with Li Tong, and just when he was about to ask him something, his eldest brother's voice came.
"Ozawa, come here and help unload the goods."
The Mu family's boat docked.
Mu Chenze and Ji Ping went over to help.
The fish have been sorted into categories.
After unloading, just go directly to the scale.
More than 100 kilograms of hairtail, more than 200 kilograms of Spanish mackerel, more than 200 kilograms of octopus, two sea cucumbers and two abalones each, not big, more than 300 kilograms of blue-scaled fish, more than 600 kilograms of skinned fish...
On the pier, many people envied the Mu family and lamented that the Mu family's shipping volume was booming.
The Mu family's fishing products, excluding skinned fish, were sold for nearly 700 yuan, which was the most they earned this year.
The skinned fish were taken away by Ji Ping and settled every month.
The other fishing boats that came back didn't have so much cargo, even worse than Ji Ping's harvest.
Some fishermen only sold it for three or forty yuan, and of course, some fishermen only sold it for five or six yuan.
Such as Chu Zhi.
Chu Zhi couldn't help but curl his lips towards the Mu family's fishing boat and murmured in a low voice, "That bitch Chu Xuan is really unlucky. If she successfully marries into the Mu family, will she not be able to enjoy the blessings? If she doesn't listen to my mother, she will have to refuse the marriage, and she won't be able to do so again in the future. Working so hard to survive? It seems like I have to listen to my mother! If I listen to my mother, I will have food to eat and money to spend."
Not at all discouraged by the lack of fishing.
For a while, the news that Mu's fishing boat earned 700 yuan for a trip spread throughout the small fishing village.
Mu Chenze reserved two big hairtails, said hello to his father and elder brother, and prepared to go to Ji Ping's house.
Mu Chenfu suddenly stopped him, "Second brother, I want to go too. Let's have a drink at night? At home, your sister-in-law is strict and only allows you to drink..."
If it were before, Mu Chenze would definitely say it was okay, but not today.
"Brother, Ji Ping and I have something private to discuss. Let's go to his house for a drink together another day!"
Mu Chenfu was thin-skinned and did not continue to insist, "Okay, then another day."
Follow Mu Qinlao home.
Ji Ping borrowed Li Tong's scale and weighed all the skinned fish, a total of one thousand two hundred and one kilograms.
Get on the cart and deliver fish to Chu Xuan's family in a while.
Li Tong had already heard that Ji Ping also helped Chu Xuan harvest fish, "Ji Ping, how much do you sell Chu Xuan for a catty of skinned fish?"
Ji Ping scratched his head, "I haven't settled the bill yet! She said it will be charged at the market price every month."
"Once a month? Then you have to keep track of your accounts. The price of skinned fish is different every day."
"thanks for reminding."
Ji Ping did keep accounts every day, but he would not tell Li Tong that the skinned fish he caught were priced at the market price, but the fish he collected from the Mu family was charged at three cents per catty.
This is what Chen Ze told him in advance.
Mu Chenze shouted to Ji Ping to leave, and if he continued to follow Li Tong, it would delay the progress of Chu Xuan's fish killing.
Ji Ping pulled the cart and left the pier, Mu Chenze whispered, "Chu Xuan will go to your house to cook later."
Ji Ping almost rolled over, but Mu Chenze helped to hold him on.
"Chenze, what's going on between you and her? Is this a love affair and has it come to my house?"
