Chapter 11 Sea Cucumber
On this day in his previous life, Chu Feng went out to sea with the ship and did not rob the Liu family's seafood, but he did in this life.
Chu Xuan must handle this matter well and must not let the Liu family hold a grudge against him.
"Zhao Di, this mullet is a gift of apology to your family. It didn't cost any money; I picked it up at the beach. I'm truly sorry for what happened today! I will definitely discipline Chu Feng from now on. If he dares to snatch it again, I will personally send him to the public security team for punishment."
After saying that, she walked straight into the Liu family's courtyard and put the fish into the empty wooden barrel inside the gate. Chu Feng followed her with the wooden barrel and poured the seafood into the empty basin beside her.
Liu Zhaodi did not say the words of refusal again. She always felt that Chu Xuan was different now. She decided to accept the blackfish and end the matter today.
Watched Chu Xuan and his sister leave.
After leaving the house, Chu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. Today's grudge should have been resolved.
Chu Feng took the bucket from her hand attentively, with a flattering smile on his face, "Sister, there's a mullet and some clams in here. Should I sell them at the dock for money or keep them for myself?"
Seeing his younger brother being so shameless, Chu Xuan said directly, "Go home and write a letter of apology until I am satisfied!"
The smile on Chu Feng's face froze. How could he write a letter of apology when he couldn't even recognize all the characters?
"Sister, please forgive me for a moment! Don't write a letter of apology. Just beat me up when we get home! You know I haven't been to school for a few days."
"You must write a self-criticism. If you can't write, use pinyin!"
Chu Xuan's tone was unyielding.
Chu Feng didn't dare to bargain anymore.
After returning home, Chu Feng put the iron bucket in the kitchen, and then went back to the bedroom to read his self-reflection letter.
Chu Xuan stood in the yard, looking towards his younger brother's bedroom. He really didn't know what kind of trouble his younger brother would cause in the days to come.
After a while, Aunt Hua knocked on the door and came in with a basket on her shoulder, looking happy, "Xiao Xuan, I came over to change my mullet."
Chu Xuan jokingly asked, "Aunt Hua, is there something good going on? She looked so distressed just now on the beach, but now she's so happy to be exchanging fish?"
Aunt Hua didn't hide it, "Because during the quarrel today, Feng Chunhua admitted defeat."
Feng Chunhua is famous for not wanting to suffer any loss, so it is very difficult to make her admit defeat.
"Aunt Hua, how did you win by scolding her?"
When the question came out, Aunt Hua's eyes became a little unnatural. "We can't talk about this. Please pour out the dried scallops first."
Chu Xuan took the bamboo basket, walked into the kitchen, poured the dried scallops into his own bamboo basket, and checked it by the way. The quality was good.
I caught the mullet and put it into Aunt Hua's bamboo basket and walked out of the kitchen.
Handing it to Aunt Hua, "Do you know any secrets about Feng Chunhua?"
It was just a casual question, but Aunt Hua quickly waved her hands and said, "No, no, it's nothing secret. I have to go back to my parents' house. I'm leaving!"
He took the bamboo basket and ran away.
This behavior made Chu Xuan even more certain that she knew something.
Don't be in a hurry, you can slowly ask questions later.
Chu Xuan smelled himself and smelled a fishy smell, so he immediately boiled water to take a bath.
The big wooden basin I just bought came in handy.
There is limited space at home, so I locked the kitchen door and took a shower in the kitchen.
After taking a shower, I washed my clothes casually, and when I hung them up, I realized that I hadn't pulled up the clothesline.
He walked into the bedroom, found an old piece of clothing, tore it into strips, connected them together, and hung a clothesline in the yard.
After hanging up the clothes, she laid out a new mat, wiped it with a clean rag, carried another new mat, and walked into her younger brother's room.
The younger brother was scratching his head and thinking hard, and there was only the pinyin of "review" and a word "book" on the paper.
He threw the mat onto the kang and stuffed the rag into his younger brother's hand. "Lay out the mat yourself, wipe it, and wash the rag. Also, if you don't write a self-criticism tonight, you won't be allowed to sleep!"
Chu Feng sighed and nodded resignedly.
Chu Xuan added, "The tide will go out around six in the morning tomorrow. I'll get up early and go to the beach. You'll be responsible for making breakfast at home."
Chu Feng really wanted to go fishing, but he had just made a mistake and hadn't finished writing his self-criticism, so he didn't dare say much except nodding in agreement.
Chu Xuan felt a little tired and went back to the bedroom to rest.
Chu Xuan woke up around 5:30 the next morning.
I touched my pocket and found the more than 400 yuan in it was still there.
You can't be careless. The wall is low, and an adult can climb over it. The door and windows of the bedroom are not strong...
After a quick wash and a change of old clothes, he woke up his younger brother to look after the house before going out with his fishing tools.
When we arrived at the beach, it was low tide.
There are quite a few clams.
Of course, there are also many people going to the sea.
Whoever picks it up first gets it.
Because Chu Xuan was fat, he couldn't hold on for long after bending over to pick up the things.
I felt a little regretful for not asking my younger brother to go fishing with me, but considering that the family had just bought a lot of things and someone had to stay at home to look after the house, I thought it over.
Just stop picking them up.
Follow the receding tide and you might find some good stuff.
After searching for a while, she actually saw something good.
I picked up a sea cucumber about 15 centimeters long.
Ten minutes later, three more about ten centimeters long were seen.
Pick them up one by one and put them into the bucket.
Half an hour later, we came to a reef where an octopus was coiled.
It looks like it weighs more than ten pounds.
Chu Xuan quickly grabbed it and put it into the bucket.
Cover the sea cucumber.
After lifting a few more rocks, they found two more octopuses weighing five or six kilograms.
The tide was still receding, and she was reluctant to leave now.
Half an hour later, he picked up three more sea cucumbers about 15 centimeters long and hid them under the octopus's claws.
Sea cucumbers are valuable, so she wants to make a fortune quietly.
This time, she didn't go any further.
Otherwise, the tide will rise and she won't be able to run away quickly.
On the way back, she picked up some clams, which made her very tired.
This body really needs to be taken care of and exercised well.
The old Chinese doctor from the county hospital who had helped her regulate her body in her previous life had gone back to his hometown to visit relatives and had not returned yet. She had to wait a few more days.
Chu Xuan carried the iron bucket and walked towards the dock. There were many shops selling seafood there, but there were only two or three shops that bought seafood.
When they arrived at the dock, Li Tong, a seafood vendor, took a liking to the giant octopus and sea cucumber in Chu Xuan's bucket.
He made a bid quietly, "I'll buy all your seafood for one hundred and sixty yuan."
Chu Xuan interrupted quietly, "I'm keeping the clams for myself. These sea cucumbers and octopus are both of good quality. There are a lot of people selling seafood at the dock lately, but none of them have sea cucumbers. Since it's a fixed price, give me two hundred yuan in total! I'll sell you better stuff later."
Li Tong hesitated for a moment, then smiled and took out the money. "Okay! Then you must sell me good stuff in the future!"
If a relative had not specifically asked him to collect sea cucumbers to entertain guests in the past two days, he would not have given the money so readily.
He counted out twenty ten-yuan bills and handed them to Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan counted it again, confirmed that it was correct, and delivered the goods.
After more than twenty minutes, I walked to the door of my house, pushed it, and found it was bolted from the inside.
Knock on the door.
"Xiao Feng, open the door."
She was answered with a whimper.
Chu Xuan climbed over the wall and entered the house.
Seeing Chu Feng's hands tied to the bedroom window, with a rag in his mouth...
