Chapter 59: Seven in and seven out?
Chapter 59 Seven in and seven out?
Li Duoyu just said casually.
Unexpectedly, my mother-in-law made five dishes and one soup, and the dinner was quite sumptuous.
Fortunately, the second sister-in-law has been weaving nets very late recently, otherwise she might have made some weird comments if she saw such a heartwarming scene.
Li Duoyu ate the fragrant white rice and put a piece of fried egg in his mouth.
He found that the eggs at this time were really fragrant. He couldn't describe it. There wasn't much seasoning, but it was fragrant.
While Li Duoyu was eating, he didn't forget to put a piece into the bowl of Zhou Xiaoying, who didn't like to use chopsticks.
“Eat more eggs so that you can keep up with the nutrition.”
“I’ve eaten enough, and now I’m as fat as a pig.”
Li Duoyu looked Zhou Xiaoying up and down:
"Except for the belly, he looks like a pig everywhere. He is very skinny and has very little meat on his body."
Chen Huiying also agreed and handed her a bowl of tofu and fish soup:
"Xiaoying, what Duoyu said is right. I also think you are too thin. Your second sister-in-law knew how to eat when she was pregnant. If I hadn't been so tight, she would have eaten the whole chicken pen."
Zhou Xiaoying: “.”
Lao Li picked up a bowl of rice and asked:
“I heard someone say that you pulled back those bamboos from the pier?”
Li Duoyu nodded.
“Well, I pulled it.”
“What are you doing with so much bamboo?”
“I plan to build a fishing raft so that it will be easier to manage the kelp in the future. When I am tired, I will have a place to hide when it rains heavily.”
Lao Li also thought it made sense. A few days ago, when he was helping to deal with the barnacles on the kelp rope, it rained heavily and he got wet.
But what he was more worried about was that the fourth child had been spending too much money recently.
The kelp has not been raised well.
started all kinds of messing around.
“If you do this at sea, will it be blown away by a typhoon?”
Lao Li thought about these issues, and Li Duoyu also considered them, but there are some things that you don’t just stop doing because you are afraid.
So when others make money, you are probably only jealous. You are in a city not far from Dandan Island.
I like to shout a slogan:
You will win only if you love to fight.
“Don’t be afraid of small winds. There is really nothing we can do about strong winds, but typhoons in winter are not that big either.”
Old Li said:
“Who said there are no big typhoons in winter? When I was young, I had several big ones.”
When Old Li said this, Li Duoyu frowned. At this time in his previous life, he was imprisoned in the next province, and he didn't know whether there would be a winter typhoon this year.
As long as they are not particularly destructive, these kelp piles can barely hold up.
Li Duoyu had eaten and drank enough. He was about to deal with the large yellow croakers when he found that his mother-in-law was already helping him.
Since there is no preservation technology, if the fish caught that day is not sold, it will be dried or made into salted fish.
I saw that my mother-in-law had already killed all the large yellow croakers.
Li Duoyu suddenly remembered something very important.
He looked at the large yellow croaker a few times, and sure enough, the fish's belly had been hollowed out, but the fish bubbles were gone.
“Mom, where’s my fish pie?”
Chen Huiying looked at the fourth child in confusion, not knowing what he was fussing over.
“That thing was fed to chickens by me.”
Li Duoyu’s mouth twitched.
“You haven’t fed it yet.”
“Just threw it in.”
Li Duoyu rushed to the chicken pen and found the chickens pecking at something. When he took a closer look, he saw that it was the fish bubble of the large yellow croaker.
Li Duoyu opened the chicken coop, drove the chickens away, picked up the fish bubbles and observed them. Fortunately, the fish bubbles were elastic and had not been pecked. They were indeed the prototype of family planning products.
Chen Huiying looked at Li Duoyu in confusion.
“This thing is fishy and smelly, what do you want it to do?”
It was difficult for Li Duoyu to explain to her that there was no such thing as isinglass and fish maw here, and it was indeed fishy. Fishermen generally did not eat it, but fed it to chickens and pigs. Li Duoyu sighed with emotion. He found that the more fishermen looked down on things in the past, the more expensive they would be sold in later generations.
Ever since the isinglass of the yellow-lipped fish was sold at a sky-high price, no one calls it fish maw or fish maw anymore. Most of them call it fish maw.
There are also various kinds of glues divided according to their grades, and there are at least thirty kinds of them.
Later, the word "collagen" came into use in the beauty industry, and isinglass transformed into a beauty product.
The value has risen again.
As for whether the fish bubbles are so magical, Li Duoyu really doesn’t know. Anyway, there are people buying and selling them, and it is a good thing if it can increase the income of fishermen.
Li Duoyu soaked the fish he picked up, washed it with clean water, and then put it together with the large yellow croaker made by his mother to dry.
“Has anyone bought this?” Chen Huiying asked.
Li Duoyu nodded:
“People in Hong Kong Island and overseas provinces especially like to eat this. I plan to sell more of it and sell it to them in the future.”
“Where can I find delicious pork and chicken?”
“Perhaps people are tired of eating pork and chicken and want to eat something different.”
Chen Huiying still looked at the fish bubbles in Li Duoyu's hand with disgust. She really couldn't understand how this fishy and smelly thing was so delicious.
Li Duoyu can also understand Grandma’s disdain. In this era of lack of seasonings, fish soaks like this are indeed unpalatable no matter how you make them.
But the fish soaking he is drying is not for current use. He plans to start stocking a batch of fish soaking from now on, and wait until the price increases in the future.
Li Duoyu planned to let them see what a real hoarding rat is.
After handling the fish bubbles, Li Duoyu glanced at the little yellow dog in the chicken coop. He was still afraid of people and only dared to hide in the corner.
See it looking listless.
Li Duoyu gave it some leftovers to eat.
It’s impossible to eat leftovers.
In this day and age, dogs have the lowest status among the six domestic animals, and being able to eat leftovers is considered a good treatment.
Most native dogs in the village can only eat rice fields.
After feeding the little yellow dog, Li Duoyu returned to his house and found Zhou Xiaoying wiping herself and taking a shower in the bedroom.
She pinched the flesh on her body and looked at the mirror, frowning and asked:
“Duoyu, am I really skinny?”
Li Duoyu, who was lying on the bed, looked at Zhou Xiaoying and said, "It's not bad. You have a small frame, but you still have some flesh on your body."
“Then you just said that I am too skinny.”
"It depends on who you compare with. If you compare with the second sister-in-law, you are not only thin, but also have no meat."
Zhou Xiaoying gritted her teeth:
"Then you mean, I'm too thin and not as good-looking as my second sister-in-law, right?"
Li Duoyu was startled for a moment, what kind of logic is this? He just said it casually, but he didn't expect Zhou Xiaoying to care so much and backhandedly gave him a proposition.
“Actually, I like you who have a small frame and look thin, but your whole body feels like flesh.”
“Hmph, it must be a lie.”
Li Duoyu said seriously: "If you really think I'm lying to you, you'll know whether I lied to you after you finish your confinement period."
Zhou Xiaoying's face flushed on the spot, and then she said slowly: "You are very good at talking. When the time comes, don't turn into a soft-footed shrimp in a day or two."
Li Duoyu opened his mouth wide, feeling that his dignity as a man was being questioned.
"Then after you finish confinement, I will eat oysters every day to see if you are afraid."
Zhou Xiaoying asked curiously: "What are oysters?"
“Oysters, those big sea oysters.”
“Oh, what’s the use of that.”
"You will know its use after you experience it. When I, Changshan Zhao Zilong, take out the spear, you will know whether it is powerful or not."
After hearing this sentence, Zhou Xiaoying couldn't help laughing: "Do you know how many times Zhao Zilong came in and out when he was in Changbanpo?"
“Seven in and seven out.”
Zhou Xiaoying said seriously: "Actually, there are no seven in and seven out. At most, there are only two in and two out."
Li Duoyu thought for a while and seemed to feel that something was wrong. After seeing Zhou Xiaoying's playful expression, he suddenly realized.
Thanks to the leader of Santa Eusta for the reward, thanks to Cheng Shen Dian, I Wish to Be Like the Wind, An Old Biaozi Dies Fatty Wants to Be Thin, QFH, The Bigger the Storm, the More Expensive the Fish, Details Monster, and everyone’s rewards and support, the author I am writing a book very seriously, and I hope everyone will like this book.
