Chapter 199 Is Xiaoxia feeling better?
Jiang Xia opened the cloth bag, and found another big bag of big unity, neatly placed in the cloth bag.
She counted them and there were fifty-six stacks, or fifty-six thousand.
"Why are there so many?" Jiang Xia asked in surprise.
"We went farther away, had better luck, and had a fish finder, so we made more than five thousand every day. We made almost five thousand on the first night. The next day..."
"There was probably a storm on the day before we came back. The waves were huge and there were a lot of good fish. We pulled that shipload of fish to the dock and sold it. It was more expensive than selling it to the fish transport ship. We made more than 10,000 yuan. That's all we made."
Of course Zhou Chenglei offered a high salary, 100 yuan per person per day, and Zhou Yongguo hired six people in total, plus bonuses and red envelopes, which added up to 10,000 yuan. Everyone got more than 1,500 yuan, which was considered high enough.
They earn more than those people in the village who have small wooden boats in a month by going out to sea.
Jiang Xia had seen what it was like to sail a ship in a storm, and it felt like it was about to be submerged and overturned by the waves at any time. The thought of it made him nervous: "If you receive news of a typhoon in the future, come back as soon as possible."
Their ship is fully equipped and can receive notifications from the maritime radio station and send out distress calls.
"Yes, I will." Zhou Chenglei hugged her tightly and kissed her.
How could he bear to take the risk when she was waiting at home?
My teammates all said that we should fish for another day while the waves are strong, there are many fish, and the typhoon has not yet arrived, and then come back.
He actually wanted to, but thinking that she might be frightened at home, he decided to return home.
They were all very surprised; this was not his style.
But he said he would give her stable happiness.
Jiang Xia asked again: "Can all the boats that go fishing in the open sea earn so much?"
"Not really. There are not many fish when the sea is calm, and it is not easy to encounter a school of fish. Some boats have been out at sea for 20 days, but they don't make as much as our boat. But there are some bigger boats that have returned from the waters near the island country and made more than 200,000 in less than a month."
Zhou Chenglei held Jiang Xia in his arms and took the photos on the table. While flipping through the photos, he told her in detail about the harvest of the ten days of deep sea fishing and some news he had heard.
Jiang Xia is not a talkative person, so most of the time it was Zhou Chenglei who did the talking and she was listening.
Zhou Chenglei was also coaxing her to talk more, coaxing her to tell him what she had done at home these days. He liked to listen to her voice and wanted to know her daily life even more.
The evening breeze blowing in from the window was very gentle, and Jiang Xia's voice was even gentler. Before he knew it, he had been holding her and talking to her for more than an hour.
This was also the night Zhou Chenglei spoke the most in his life. It felt like he had spoken more than he had tonight in the past 29 years combined.
But every day when he was drifting on the sea, he would lie on the deck of the ship and look at the starry sky, and he would especially want to talk to her, to tell her what fish he had caught that day, and he also wanted to hear her voice and know what she was doing.
That night, he told her everything he wanted to say every night during the ten nights they were apart, and he also expressed to her with his own actions all his thoughts about her.
Gentle, surging...
Day and night.
I don't have to go out to sea tomorrow, so I can be more unrestrained and do whatever I want.
The next day Jiang Xia woke up very late.
She had only slept for three hours last night, and he wanted it again when it was almost dawn. It was already past eight o'clock when they were done. She should have gotten up, but she was too tired to get up, so she fell asleep again in a daze.
Zhou Chenglei did get up, but she didn't know when he brought in a bowl of porridge and fed her. Then she fell asleep again.
I slept for another four hours and when I woke up it was already afternoon.
Zhou Chenglei was no longer in the room. Jiang Xia reached under the pillow and took out his watch to check the time. It was one minute to five!
Missed lunch time!
Jiang Xia's face turned red. Sleeping to this point broke the record of her two lifetimes!
Jiang Xia heard faint voices coming from outside.
There was Li Xiuxian's voice. It should be Zhou Chengsen and Li Xiuxian who came back to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Tomorrow is Mid-Autumn Festival.
She quickly got out of bed.
At this time, the door of the room was gently pushed open, and Zhou Chenglei walked in. Seeing that she was awake, he closed the door, walked up to her, hugged her in his arms, and kissed her: "Are you hungry?"
Jiang Xia glared at him: "What do you think?"
Zhou Chenglei couldn't stand her look the most.
Her eyes are so beautiful that a glare from her has no killing power at all, but is instead very alluring and captivating.
Zhou Chenglei couldn't help it, nor did he want to.
After being apart for so many days, he was afraid that she couldn't bear it last night, so he kept it to himself.
He held her waist and gave her a deep goodnight kiss.
He stopped only when Jiang Xia couldn't breathe after being kissed by him.
The breathing of both of them was a little unstable.
"Change your clothes first and go out to eat something." His voice was hoarse, but he didn't let her go.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
"Yeah." Her voice was soft and she lay there without moving.
Mainly because I have no strength.
Zhou Chenglei naturally wouldn't push her away. He hugged her, let her lean on him, and waited for her.
Neither of them moved. They hugged each other quietly for a while before Jiang Xia pushed him away: "Are there many people in the yard?"
Zhou Chenglei nodded: "Yes, my second brother and second sister-in-law came back early in the morning, and my great grandmother and the others came over too. They all killed chickens and ducks together and will have dinner together tonight."
Jiang Xia thought of the scene when he went out, and couldn't help but close his eyes: "You go out first."
Zhou Chenglei smiled and pecked her lightly: "Well, I'll go heat up some food for you. There's porridge and rice, or would you like some seafood fried rice? I've peeled the crab meat and shrimp."
Jiang Xia was really hungry: "Okay, no need to fry too much, I also want to eat a bowl of porridge."
"Okay." So Zhou Chenglei went out to make seafood fried rice for her.
Jiang Xia went to get some clothes to change.
There were marks all over his body from what he had done, so Jiang Xia wore a collared shirt to cover them up.
When combing my hair, I couldn't help but look at my neck carefully in the mirror, for fear that any marks would be exposed and seen by others.
Jiang Xia walked out only after he had dressed neatly and made sure that nothing was wrong.
In the yard, great-grandmother, He Xinghua, Li Xiuxian, Tian Caihua and Zhou's mother were killing chickens, geese, ducks and fish.
Jiang Xia also saw a few blue crabs and snails in the bucket, stone snails in the wooden basin, many seafood in the baskets, and several baskets of vegetables, fruits and melons placed in the corner.
These are all the dishes for tonight.
Tomorrow is Mid-Autumn Festival. Everyone knows that Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia plan to go to the city tomorrow night to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with Jiang's father and mother, so the families simply have a Mid-Autumn Festival reunion dinner the night before and enjoy the moon together.
He Xinghuan saw Jiang Xia coming out and said with a smile: "Xiao Xia, are you feeling better? If you feel uncomfortable, just sleep a little longer."
The great-grandmother looked at the rosy-faced Jiang Xia with a smile, as if she knew everything.
Jiang Xia: “…”
Jiang Xia avoided the grandmother's X-ray gaze, guessed that Zhou Chenglei must have said something to everyone, and smiled and said, "Much better."
Zhou's mother was plucking goose feathers and said with a smile, "There's food in the pot, go and eat it."
"Okay." Jiang Xia quickly walked away!
Li Xiuxian's mouth twitched. Her mother-in-law was such a nice person! She slept so late without saying a word to Jiang Xia! What's wrong with her? Lazy is lazy. She seldom went back to the village, and she knew that Jiang Xia would sleep until noon every day as long as he didn't go out to sea.
Li Xiuxian is a teacher. She can't stand other people being so lazy. No wonder she failed the college entrance examination three times.
Jiang Xia is so lazy that he doesn't get up until noon every day. He still wants to take the college entrance examination next year? He will be embarrassed if he passes the exam!
