The Dragon Clan's most beloved little princess transmigrated. As soon as she was born, her scumbag father looked at her once and declared his intention to divorce her mother. It turned out that...
"You're so shameless, aren't you afraid your sister-in-law will beat you to death?"
Su Chenggong couldn't help but laugh. Su Chengguo was better at charming women than he was; he couldn't learn Su Chengguo's tricks.
Su Dahai watched his two sons banter, rolled a pipe, took a puff, and said, "Today's scene is truly rare."
His hands are still shaking, and he feels like it's all a dream, so he smokes a cigarette in one hand and holds the gills of a sea wolf fish in the other.
Everything is real; none of it is a dream.
"Everyone get up, get up, let's go home."
After resting for a while, Su Dahai began to call his two sons to return home.
He was afraid that if he didn't call out, his two sons would fall asleep.
This will be tiring, and with wet clothes, the sea breeze will easily make you sick.
I'll wait until I get home, wash up, and get a good night's sleep.
Su Chengguo and Su Chenggong both got up, excitedly looking at the coastline, which was getting closer and closer.
More and more fishing boats are passing by.
"Dahai, your family has struck it rich! You caught a huge yellow croaker in the net a while ago, and now you've caught sea wolf fish. You guys are incredibly lucky."
They ran into acquaintances on the way, and everyone looked at the fish on the Su family's fishing boat with envy.
Many people had a pretty good harvest, but looking at Su Dahai's family and then at themselves, they suddenly felt that their harvest was less impressive.
The saying "comparing yourself to others will only make you miserable" perfectly illustrates this point.
"It's just good luck today. I still remember last year when your family caught a school of pomfret, netting several thousand kilograms."
Su Dahai kept smiling and talked about other people's success.
Every family that goes out to sea has its moments of incredible luck.
When you encounter a school of fish, you're like a pig standing in the wind; no matter how heavy you are, you'll take off.
"Oh well, that's all in the past. Congratulations anyway!"
They exchanged a few jokes, offered their congratulations, and then went their separate ways.
After reaching the shore, Su Chengguo picked up a bucket of fish and carried it home. Su Chenggong went to Liu, the fish collector, and asked him to call people to carry it.
The father and son couldn't possibly handle over a thousand kilograms of such high-quality goods; even fishmonger Liu would be happy to come and buy them.
Fish Collector Liu, wearing flip-flops and sporting a large belly, ran over, and immediately broke into a wide smile.
"Wow, you father and sons are incredibly lucky! You've got top-quality stuff all around you."
Liu, the fish collector, picked up a fish and praised it, saying that he could tell whether a fish was good or not just by handling it.
Such plump fish are definitely top-quality. Unexpectedly, the three Su family members had incredible luck again, encountering a school of sea wolf fish.
He quickly instructed the workers he had brought to start collecting the fish.
Su Dahai was watching the scale being weighed.
The rest of the fish were weighed, and some of the less desirable ones were kept as bait or taken home to eat.
The most expensive fish was the barracuda, weighing a full 1,070 jin (approximately 650 catties). At a purchase price of 6 mao (0.6 yuan), that's 642 yuan.
There were also 430 jin of other fish, and the prices were all about the same. This size was purchased at two mao per jin, which is 86 yuan.
That's a total of 728 yuan.
"Wow, you guys made a fortune! A total of 728 yuan. Congratulations on your good fortune, Lao Su."
Liu, the fish buyer, handed the receipt to Su Dahai with a smile and congratulated him. Just ten days ago, the Su family father and son had made over a thousand yuan from selling large yellow croakers, and today they had caught a jack mackerel in the net, earning another seven hundred yuan.
This is equivalent to two years' income for other people.
This is the benefit of good fortune; you encounter fish in groups, which means God is about to make you rich.
"It's just luck. Everyone has their lucky days. Yesterday it was the Zhang family, the day before it was the Li family, and today it's my Su family's turn. It's normal."
Su Dahai smiled modestly, but inwardly he was overjoyed.
At this moment, Zhou Chunmei and Li Xue arrived with Su Chengguo, both of them wearing smiles.
Watching Liu direct the workers to move the fish away, the two men stepped aside.
After Liu and the others left, Li Xue and Zhou Chunmei went down to the fishing boat to help pack up.
Some broken fish are put together to be used as bait.
I cleaned up some small, miscellaneous fish and filled about half a bucket. I'll dry these fish later.
The fishing net is broken again; I need to go back and mend it properly.
"Dad, let's get it."
Li Xue noticed Su Dahai's exhaustion and offered to carry the bucket.
"Dad, our family had a lucky day. My sister-in-law and I had a blast going beachcombing. We even found a big stone eel on the way home. My sister-in-law didn't sell it; we took it home and cooked it. You guys were incredibly lucky today. Our family is really going to be rich."
Zhou Chunmei chattered away to Su Dahai about her and Li Xue's experiences that day.
I had already told Su Chengguo about it on the way here, but she still felt that I hadn't said enough.
She's still excited about the thought of finding a whole nest of them when she digs them up.
"That's really great. We should do it this way from now on. Whenever we have something good, we should keep it for ourselves."
Su Dahai couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. He looked at Li Xue and couldn't help but sigh, realizing that he was still too slow to understand.
Li Xue was a little embarrassed: "I'll listen to Dad."
"Chunmei, what you've all done is nothing. What really surprised me, Dad, and me today was... We started from..."
Su Chengguo, unable to keep her mouth shut, also started showing off.
From the moment they set out to sea in the morning, the wind was so favorable, the sea so gentle, the nets so heavy, and they were so excited, speaking in great detail and clarity.
Zhou Chunmei listened with a mixture of delight and envy.
"I want to go out to sea, I want to cast my net, I want to catch fish!"
Zhou Chunmei was filled with longing upon hearing this; she also wanted to experience what it was like to be a cyberbully.
"I can't take you. You still have to stay home to take care of the kids. Besides, the sea isn't that great. The sun is very strong, and you'll get sunburned in a day. There are also risks. You can't swim, and what if you fall into the water because of the swaying of the sea?"
Su Chengguo realized she had gone too far, so she quickly and seriously analyzed the situation for Zhou Chunmei.
Zhou Chunmei snorted: "I'm not stupid. I know how to wear a hat. Besides, it's not that I can't swim, it's just that I'm not good at it!"
If you don't want to take her, just say so. Don't make excuses.
"Chunmei, it's not that I disagree, it's just that Dad's word is final..."
Su Chengguo touched her head sheepishly, regretting that she hadn't been so ruthless in showing off.
Li Xue and Su Chenggong listened to the couple bickering, silently chuckling to themselves.
"Stop arguing, I'll take you to the island to experience beachcombing when the weather is nice."
Su Dahai spoke up. He had never done this before, always believing that it was best for women not to go to sea.
But now that I think about it, my previous ideas weren't necessarily the best.
Both daughters-in-law actually wanted to go, so it wouldn't hurt to take them out to sea for a day to experience it.
"Dad, is it true?"
Su asked uncertainly.
Zhou Chunmei pinched him: "Of course what Dad said is true, how dare you not listen?"
Su Chengguo shook his head repeatedly; he dared not.
"Mom, A-Luo, we're back."
Zhou Chunmei was in a great mood and started calling out as soon as she arrived at her door.
Liu Xiaohua was cleaning a fish when she heard the sound and replied, "Good to see you back. Hurry up and get the fish to cook."
Su Luo carried Su Tiantian out; she really wanted to help, but everyone avoided her.
"A-Luo, stand aside. We're all dirty. Don't let the smell bother Tian Tian," Su Chengguo waved his hand and said. No matter how tired he was, he didn't want his sister's help.
