Before the heavy rain arrived, Feng Ye and Feng Xuan jogged back home.
By this time, the meal was ready, and the house was filled with the aroma of food. The whole family was waiting for the two of them in the main room.
Feng Ye didn't cook today; we ate at Feng Xuan's house.
Aside from holidays and festivals, this is a rare opportunity for a get-together.
Feng Jiaqing had just lit a cigarette and was puffing out smoke when he saw them return. He quickly asked, "How much did you sell that giant manta ray for?"
"Four hundred, exactly four hundred."
Feng Xuan grinned widely and eagerly spoke first.
"so much?"
"It weighs 160 jin (80 catties)."
Feng Ye shook his head and said, "Uncle Fa doesn't know his stuff, otherwise he could have sold even more."
As he spoke, he pointed to the gills of the swollen fish in the basket that had been brought into the main room.
"What is this? It looks like the gills of some kind of fish?"
Feng Jiaqing walked up to the basket and looked at it with a puzzled expression.
"The gills of the manta ray, also called the gills of the manta ray, can clear heat..."
Feng Ye had no choice but to explain again in front of everyone.
"Since it's a good thing, have your mother wash it and hang it to dry after dinner. We'll figure out what to do with it after it's dried. Sit down and eat first."
Xiao Chunxiu picked up her chopsticks, just about to take a bite, but finally couldn't resist asking out of curiosity, "How much did all the goods sell for in total?"
Du Guilan, who cared most about money, perked up her ears upon hearing this.
"I sold a total of 632 pieces."
After Feng Ye finished speaking, Feng Xuan followed up, saying, "I have a little less than A-Ye, but..."
There are also 585 pieces.
"Good, good, you've earned so much in just one morning. That's almost equivalent to your dad's salary for four months."
Feng Jiaqing couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard him being compared to someone else.
Du Guilan couldn't help but say, "Ever since Aye started doing something serious, he's been really lucky. Every time he goes out, he makes a fortune, and Axuan has also made quite a bit of money these past few days."
Feng Ye thought about it carefully. Since his rebirth, from the first day with the big yellow croaker to today's harvest at the seaside, it seems that his luck has been really good.
He muttered to himself: Could luck be my golden touch?
As soon as I sat down at the table, I spotted the steamed grouper with its head smashed. I picked up my chopsticks and took a bite.
Um……
The meat is firm and chewy, and exceptionally delicious.
No wonder it's so expensive, not only in later generations but even now.
If this grouper hadn't looked so unappetizing, his brother really wouldn't have kept it to eat.
"We've never had grouper before. It's a rare opportunity to find one with a broken head, so let's eat as much as we can."
Feng Xuan greeted them cheerfully.
"Try them all, they're delicious."
As Feng Ye spoke, he placed another piece of food on Ye Qingling's plate.
Everyone was very satisfied with the meal, and they all said the grouper was delicious.
After dinner, Feng Ye sat for a while and then went back to his room. Not long after, Ye Qingling also came in carrying the child.
Feng Ye took out some money from his pocket: "This is the money from the sales this morning, keep it."
After Ye Qingling took it, even though she knew how much it cost, she still counted it carefully before putting it away and locking it in the cabinet.
Are you going again after the tide goes out tomorrow?
"Let's see how the wind and waves are tomorrow. If the typhoon is severe, it's questionable whether the tide will recede tomorrow; it might even rise instead."
"That's right, we should go when the tide goes out. Safety is the most important thing."
"Hmm." Feng Ye then revealed a lewd expression. "I'm going to take a nap. Do you want to come with me?"
I don't know when it will rain again, so it's inconvenient to go out. Anyway, I'm bored, so I might as well take a nap.
"Dad, I want to sleep, I want to sleep..."
Feng Xinan opened her small hands, wanting to pounce on Feng Ye.
"Sleep, sleep, all you ever do is sleep."
Ye Qingling gently slapped Feng Xinan's little bottom.
Feng Xiaonan's little mouth twitched, and she immediately started crying.
"Why did you hit him? What does a little brat know?"
"He can't wake up during the day and can't sleep at night. You'll have to put him to sleep tonight!" Ye Qinglin glared at Feng Ye. "You go to sleep by yourself. I'll go to the main room to take care of the child so he won't disturb you."
After saying that, he ignored Feng Xinan's fuss and carried her out, closing the door behind him.
When I woke up, I found the room to be dark.
Feng Ye was quite surprised: "Is it almost dark? Have I been sleeping for that long?"
He didn't feel like he had slept for very long!
When I got up and went outside, it was a little brighter, but not by much. The clouds in the sky were very low and as black as ink, as if they were right above my head, and the wind was howling.
It has a sense of impending doom and impending doom.
"What time is it now?"
Upon seeing this, Feng Ye knew it wasn't just getting dark, but that the typhoon was getting closer.
It's 2:30.
Ye Qingling, who was doing longline fishing, answered without looking up.
"Oh." Feng Ye glanced at the dimly lit main room. "It's so dark, why aren't the lights on?"
"The power is out."
Feng Ye frowned, speechless.
That's really how it is these days; power outages happen whenever there's a typhoon, and everyone's gotten used to it.
It wasn't until more than 20 years later, when the power grid on Baishi Island was upgraded, that the history of power outages during typhoons came to an end.
Since then, unless there is a line fault, even if there is a power outage, it will be restored in just a few minutes.
More than an hour later, the clouds in the sky finally couldn't hold back the increasing amount of moisture, and it started to rain.
Suddenly, the dimly lit main room was illuminated, then darkened again.
