Early in the morning, Lin Gang woke up Zheng Gan who was still sleeping and told him that Lao Hong from the construction team had come to see him and said that the old house could be cleaned up today and work could start tomorrow.
However, the start date of construction cannot be neglected. An auspicious day must be chosen to bless the homeowner. This is a custom passed down from the older generation.
In other words, times have changed. In the past, starting construction of a house was a big event. Not only were there many ceremonies, but the villagers would even be invited to a big banquet.
Moreover, not only the start of construction, but also the raising of beams and completion of construction all have corresponding rules.
At that time, we basically built the house by ourselves, and called on people from the village to help. With everyone working together, the house was completed quickly.
Nowadays, people don’t care about these things. When building a house, they just hire a construction team and invite relatives over for a meal when the house is finished.
Zheng Gan respects customs, but he doesn't understand them, so he can only ask Lin Gang for help.
"I've already picked a date for you. It's the day after tomorrow, May 2nd, at 9:36 AM. It's the auspicious day for the groundbreaking ceremony," Lin Gang said. "I've also prepared everything you need. Just get to the site early."
Zheng Gan thanked him repeatedly. He didn't have any elders, so it didn't matter to him living outside. There were many customs in the village that he really knew nothing about. Fortunately, Lin Gang helped him.
The smaller the place, the more rules there are. Besides the house, weddings and funerals, everything has its own rules. (Small places don't look down on customs; they are a tradition that we should understand and inherit.)
Not to mention building a house, Zheng Gan will be confused when they get engaged and married.
......
Zheng Gan was still lying on the recliner today, doing nothing. The warm sunshine shining on his body was so comfortable that Zheng Gan was about to fall asleep.
Lin Hao took a small stool and sat aside, continuing to play King of Glory. The scene was very harmonious.
However, there is no such thing as a peaceful life for adults. Only by being constantly busy can we understand what life is.
"I now think you went back to the village just to be lazy." Qiao Xin walked in from the door carrying equipment.
When Zheng Gan heard the sound, he jumped up from the recliner in an instant and gave his seat to the head of the family.
"Hurry up and sit down, Sister Xin, little mouse, why don't you pour tea for your sister-in-law?"
Seeing this, Lin Hao immediately scoffed, "Why do I remember you telling me that a man should be upright and not live under someone else's command for long?"
"You know shit! Go pour some tea. Children shouldn't interfere in adults' affairs." Zheng Gan hurriedly drove Lin Hao away. This bastard never said a good word.
"It seems that my brother has great ambitions." Qiao Xin said with a smile.
Zheng Gan immediately shook his head like a rattle, "Serving you well, sir, is my greatest ambition!"
"Okay, I won't argue with you anymore." Qiao Xin interrupted Zheng Gan who was about to flatter her, "Let's go fishing. It's daytime and the light is good, so we can explain it more clearly during the live broadcast."
"Now." Zheng Gan looked at the time and said with some embarrassment, "But the tides are not very good during the day, so we can't catch anything. We can only dig for clams or something on the nearby mudflats."
"There are a lot of people at night, and it's easy for people to gather around, which is not good." Qiao Xin was also a little embarrassed.
When she was live streaming last night, there were quite a few people watching.
"If you ask me, let's go sea fishing. I know a treasure fishing spot, but not many people know it exists." Lin Hao walked out of the house holding a teapot.
"No!" Zheng Gan refused without any hesitation.
"Sea fishing is fine too. There's nothing to do during the day anyway." Qiao Xin agreed.
"I don't want to go." Zheng Gan once again clarified his point of view.
"Then I'll go back and get my dad's fishing tools. You guys pack up at home and then we'll set off." Qiao Xin didn't care about Zheng Gan's opinion at all and left directly.
Lin Hao looked at the bewildered Zheng Gan, patted his shoulder with some sympathy and said, "Man, since you can't resist your master, then just obey his orders."
Zheng Gan immediately covered his face and cried.
The three of them soon arrived at the sea fishing spot. This stretch of coastline was indeed a bit remote, and there was no one nearby.
"Brother, look, I'm going to take you fishing for a big fish today."
Lin Hao was holding a hollow rock fishing rod, which is usually made of fiberglass or carbon material. It is mainly used for fishing for snappers on islands and reefs. A 4.5-meter-long fishing line passes through the inside of the fishing rod, and there is no wire ring on the outside of the rod.
"Wow, you are so professional in your preparation!" Zheng Gan was so angry when he looked at the 3.9-meter beach fishing casting rod in his hand.
"Of course, I will go out fishing when I have nothing to do at home. These equipment are all the rewards for my help with housework." Lin Hao said as he took a small shrimp, put it on the hook, threw it hard, and hit it directly more than 20 meters away.
The baits were all small fish and shrimps that Lin Hao bought from the purchasing point in the village on his way here. There were plenty of these that couldn't be sold.
At this time, Qiao Xin also turned on the device and started today's live broadcast.
"Everyone, the tide is not good today, so we can't go fishing. Let's go sea fishing."
Last night’s live broadcast was very good. As soon as Qiao Xin started the live broadcast, more than 20 people came in, most of whom were active users in yesterday’s live broadcast.
"The anchor lady is so dedicated. She started the broadcast this morning. I happened to be slacking off in the company bathroom right then."
"Wow, handsome little brother, this casting rod is really cool. Brother Hei can actually fish too. Isn't he a bodyguard?"
"I wish the two fishermen good luck, hahaha."
It's not very popular, but the atmosphere is good.
When Zheng Gan saw the word "Air Force", he gritted his teeth and swore that he would not be a fisherman who only fished for Shi Jiugong today. But he had the help of the map, and he cast his rod in the place with the most red dots.
Lin Hao was once again struck by the word "Brother Black".
"We've got a fish!"
In less than three minutes, Zheng Gan's float moved. He quickly raised the rod, but before the fish came up, he looked at Lin Hao provocatively.
"Fuck, we caught a fish already?"
“That’s too fast!”
"The one upstairs, can't you say hurry up to a man?"
"Haha, you're bringing yourself into this."
Lin Hao was not panicked at all. Sea fishing? Zheng Gan was not one of them.
Sure enough, after the fish came up, it was still a stable little stone croaker!
"Oh, steady!" Lin Hao sneered disdainfully.
"Damn it." Zheng Gan cursed angrily, feeling a little bad. After throwing the small fish back into the sea, he continued to cast his rod.
"I just caught a small stonefish. This fish is delicious and can be used in soup or braised. It is not expensive, but it is too small, so it is better to release it." Qiao Xin explained in the live broadcast room.
"Tsk, I thought it was a big fish."
"Come on, as long as it's not a big deal, it doesn't matter how big it is."
