Chapter 92: Being Disgusted by Someone Visiting

As Zhou's father expected, the Zhou family's fishing boat caused a sensation again when it docked.

The boat was filled with red and gold things, it was impossible not to attract attention.

Before the boat even reached the shore, everyone started discussing: "Could the red fish be another kingfish? Could the yellow one be another yellow croaker?"

"No way?" He asked uncertainly.

"Recently, Zhou Yongfu has encountered shoals of fish every day when he goes out to sea. He has almost caught all the fish in the sea!"

“Which sea area are they fishing in? Why do they always encounter schools of fish?”

…

Zhou's mother, Zhou Chengxin, and Tian Caihua were standing on the dock, seeing the red and gold from afar, and listening to the villagers' sour words, two of them had smiles on their faces, while one's face turned as sour as lemon yellow.

Tian Caihua also wanted to know why Zhou Chenglei encountered schools of fish every time he went out to sea. It was not a deep sea fishing trip. The chance of encountering schools of fish every day when fishing near the coast was very small! When the boat docked, everyone saw that it was not croaker or yellow croaker, but red fish and small yellow croaker. Although they were not as valuable as croaker and yellow croaker, there were so many of them that it was definitely no problem to buy more than a hundred or even two hundred yuan.

Father Zhou jumped off the boat in high spirits. It was time for him to show his prowess again!

Sure enough, as soon as the villagers saw him get off the boat, they immediately chased after him and asked questions.

"Zhou Yongfu, tell me quickly, which god of wealth have you worshipped recently? Why do you encounter schools of fish every day?"

Father Zhou laughed and said, "Didn't I tell you that there is no need to worship the God of Wealth? I am just taking my daughter-in-law out to sea. I can't help it, she brings good luck to her husband and the family! Every time I take her out to sea, the fish just bump into us!"

Everyone: “…”

Well, the conversation is completely dead as soon as you open your mouth!

However, why does Zhou Chenglei always return with a full load every time he takes Jiang Xia out to sea?

What happened to the agreement that taking a woman out to sea would bring bad luck? Should I really take my wife out to sea? After appreciating everyone's expressions, Father Zhou said, "I think everyone has had a good harvest today, right?"

"What's so good about it? There aren't many fish, and they only sold for a few dozen yuan. You have more fish in this basket than we do!"

"Not today, it's only over thirty bucks. Looks like I'll have to go out to sea with you tomorrow! You eat the meat and I'll have a bowl of soup."

…

Father Zhou laughed and said, "Haha, if you want to follow me, just follow me. Who knows, tomorrow the fish may swim to the sea area where you usually fish. I'll go over there and fish!"

Zhou's father looked around and didn't see Zhou Bingqiang, but his two fishing boats had already returned. It seemed that they had returned a long time ago. What a pity!

After showing off his prowess, Father Zhou said, "I won't talk to you anymore. I have to move the fish down to sell, or I won't be able to finish moving them before dark."

Everyone: “…”

After Zhou's father successfully made everyone speechless with his Versailles words, he happily returned to the boat.

Zhou Chengxin and Zhou Chenglei each carried a load of fish off the boat.

The fish on the deck had not been divided yet, and Zhou's mother and Tian Caihua also joined in dividing the fish.

Father Zhou also picked up a load of fish on a pole, and then he said to Jiang Xia, "Xiao Xia, keep an eye on the goods in the snakeskin bag."

Be careful not to let the villagers take it when they get on the boat.

Jiang Xia responded: "Okay."

Tian Caihua was stunned for a moment and looked at the several snakeskin bags in the corner.

There were several snakeskin bags placed in the corner, with the openings not tied. One could see at a glance that they were filled with oysters. Oysters were so cheap, so what was there to look at?

Could there be something good under the oysters? Tian Caihua wanted to ask, but there were people everywhere, so she didn't ask. She would find out eventually.

Although she didn't ask, Tian Caihua couldn't hide her thoughts. When she was dividing the fish, she couldn't help but look at the snakeskin bags.

Jiang Xia saw it but ignored her.

Half an hour later, all the goods were sold out, leaving only a few bags of oysters and a basket of miscellaneous fish.

Zhou Chenglei directly handed a stack of money to Jiang Xia.

Tian Caihua looked at the big stack of treasury notes and couldn't help asking, "Fourth brother, how much did you sell it for?"

Today's sales were 206.60 yuan, but Zhou Chenglei only said, "Not as much as before."

After saying that, he picked up two bags of oysters and got off the boat.

Zhou Chengxin also carried two bags of oysters off the boat.

Father Zhou picked up the basket of miscellaneous fish and the bag of pearl shells and went off the boat.

The family pushed several bags of oysters home on a cart.

Wen Wan came to the pier to buy seafood. Her stepbrother wanted to eat it, so her father asked her to buy it.

She looked at the oysters Zhou Chenglei was pushing and then she remembered that she had forgotten the pearls!

After returning to the old house, Zhou Chenglei gave Zhou Chengxin a bag of oysters and a bucket of miscellaneous fish.

Zhou Chengxin didn't ask for that many oysters, just half a bag.

He pushed the cart home. Tian Caihua was reluctant to leave and asked Zhou's father, "Dad, what are you carrying?"

Father Zhou casually said, "Oysters!"

Tian Caihua: “…”

Who would believe that? He had been carrying it all the way and was reluctant to put it on the cart.

Tian Caihua was a little unhappy.

Is this to prevent thieves? Or are we not a family anymore? This is really biased.

She walked away with a dark face.

She couldn't help but complain to Zhou Chengxin, thinking that Zhou's father was guarding against her like a thief! Zhou Chengxin was annoyed and couldn't help but retort: ​​"Do you want to tell Dad how much savings my family has, and how much private money you have hidden?"

Tian Caihua: “…”

Zhou Chengxin said nothing more.

Didn't she know that her mouth was leaking? She always told others about the family's affairs! How much trouble did she cause for A-lei and his wife? * Zhou's mother had already prepared dinner. She picked some fish, crabs and oysters on the boat and came back early. She also made a fish stew, steamed crabs and steamed oysters.

Today's fish had a lot of bones. Zhou Chenglei knew that Jiang Xia was not picky about food, but he could see that she didn't like dried fish, so he carefully selected a bowl of fish meat and put it in front of her.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Jiang Xia was eating crabs. Today's crabs were full of roe, so she was very satisfied. When she saw the bowl of fish meat, she smiled at him with a very gentle look, "You eat too, don't worry about me."

Zhou Chenglei liked to see her smile, and his eyes softened unconsciously. He raised his hand to wipe the crab paste from the corner of her mouth, "Don't eat so much crab."

Crabs are cold, but the family eats crabs every day when they go out to sea. She had a stomachache during her period, and he was afraid that she would not be able to bear it if she ate too much.

Father Zhou, who was originally very hungry and was eating voraciously: "..."

I’m full!

Zhou's mother smiled and said, "Yes, don't eat too much, especially when you have children. Eat more oysters, this is good!"

It seems that I should not steam crabs every day in the future.

Zhou's mother opened two large oysters and placed them in front of Jiang Xia and Zhou Chenglei.

Oysters are a gas station for men and a beauty salon for women. It is right for young people to eat more oysters, as eating more is good for fertility.

Jiang Xia: “…”

During one meal, Zhou Chenglei was fed more than a dozen oysters by his mother, and his father was glared at by his mother every time he ate one.

After dinner, Jiang Xia couldn't wait to close the gate and prepare to open the pearl shells.

Father Zhou has also prepared the tools to open the pearls.

Zhou Chenglei poured water for Jiang Xia to wash his hair and even moved the reclining chair. He said to Jiang Xia, "Wash your hair and take a shower first."

Jiang Xia: "Why rush? Open the pearl first!"

Father Zhou: "Yes! Why rush to take a shower and wash your hair? Of course, open the pearls first."

The father-in-law and daughter-in-law excitedly moved a small stool to prepare to open the pearls.

Zhou Chenglei: “…”

Did she forget that she said she would go to bed early tonight? After opening the pearls, she would go to the shower and wash her hair. It would take her at least an hour and a half to wash her hair and take a shower.

Zhou Chenglei silently glanced at Jiang Xia, then silently moved a small stool to sit next to her, and took the tools and pearl shells from her hands: "It's easy to cut your hands when you open this, let me do it."

Forget it, I don’t have to go out to sea tomorrow, I’ll just go to the shipyard and I can sleep in a little later.

"Okay." Jiang Xia was unfamiliar with the place and was afraid of scratching the pearls, so he gave everything to him.

The father and son were each holding a pearl shell and were about to pry it open when the gate of the courtyard was banged on all the time.

"Is Zhou Yongfu at home? Zhou Yongfu..."

Father Zhou's face darkened when he heard Zhou Bingqiang's voice. He said to Jiang Xia and Zhou Chenglei, "Don't open the door yet. I'll go get rid of him!"

It's bound to be bad news when this person comes!

Father Zhou put the pearl shells back into the snakeskin bag, then went to open the door. He looked at Zhou Bingqiang and yawned, "What are you doing? I went out to sea early this morning and caught thousands of kilograms of fish. I made more than two hundred yuan. I'm so tired. I'm just about to take a shower and go to bed!"

Zhou Bingqiang didn't take his father's words seriously at all. He smiled and pulled his father to his side: "Why are you going to bed so early? Let's go to the dock and sit on my son's new boat to enjoy the good times. A Lei has been making money these days, so he will definitely be able to buy a new boat soon. My new boat is not expensive, just over 7,000 yuan. But I ordered this boat last year and only got it this year. The people at the shipyard said that it will cost more than 8,000 yuan this year! You should buy a boat as soon as possible. The people at the shipyard said that the price of ships will increase again at the end of the year! They said that my new boat may cost more than 9,000 yuan or even tens of thousands by the end of the year!"

Father Zhou was jealous when he heard this. He bought another boat? His family now has three fishing boats! He shook Zhou Bingqiang's hand away and said, "Congratulations! But I'm really tired today, so I won't go. I'll go and see tomorrow to get some good luck."

After saying this, Zhou's father slammed the gate shut.

Zhou Bingqiang didn't really want Zhou's father to go and see it, he just came to show off and annoy Zhou's father.

He often earns more than me these days, so what? Can't he still afford a new boat? Now his family has three boats, and all three boats go out to sea together. In the future, he will definitely earn more than his family every day!

Zhou Yongfu wants to compete with him? Zhou Chenglei wants to compete with his son? He will never be able to compete with him in his lifetime! Zhou Bingqiang shouted outside: "Okay, then you go to bed early, and remember to go with A Lei tomorrow. When A Lei has money to buy a new boat in the future, you will have a reference, right!"

After saying this, Zhou Bingqiang walked away whistling!

Zhou Chenglei still lives in a shabby house. He has to build a house when he makes money. Once the house is built, he has to save money to buy a boat. Maybe his family will have a fourth boat by then. This chapter has more words, so the subscription will have more book coins.
