"Also, the day after tomorrow is Mazu's procession, and I was arranged to carry the sedan chair."
"Good, good, good. It wasn't for nothing that you put in so much effort to promote the expansion of the Mazu Temple."
Ye Qingling was even happier, her face beaming with joy.
These are all things that make her look good.
Holding the invitation, she happily went inside and put it away.
Ye Qingyu, watching from the side, was also delighted: "Brother-in-law, you're amazing! By the way, do you know if you've arranged anything for A-Can to do?"
Feng Ye joked, "Oh, you're not even married yet, and you're already expecting him to make you look good?"
Ye Qingyu blushed and muttered, "Brother-in-law, don't talk nonsense, I was just asking casually."
"You should ask Ah-Can yourself tomorrow, I'm not sure."
Feng Ye stopped teasing her and changed the subject, asking, "Do you know how many people your sister paid?"
Are you attending a banquet?
"Um."
The banquet for Mazu's birthday is not free; you have to pay to eat.
And there are quite a few, 5 yuan per person.
Of course, children are not included, and their admission is free.
However, there are also restrictions: each family can only bring one child, and they cannot occupy a seat.
This is to prevent some shameless people from paying only one or two fees and then bringing their entire family to eat there.
With the restrictions in place, each family can only bring one child, and only the younger child can be brought.
If you're too old, it doesn't look good to eat standing up, and it's easy for people to gossip.
It doesn't matter if they are younger; you can hold them and let them sit on your lap.
Ultimately, it all comes down to the fact that the standard of living is too low and people are too poor these days.
No matter whose family it is, they all lack food and drink, and it's rare to have any oil or fat throughout the year.
Otherwise, who would be willing to be so shameless?
"My sister mentioned that she only paid attention to one person, right?"
"What was your sister thinking? Why only invite one person? It would be better if everyone went together."
Feng Ye frowned slightly.
He's not short of that little bit of money.
Ye Qingling returned just in time to hear the conversation, and quickly explained, "I paid for Ayu's share; Anan and I don't need to pay anything."
"Huh? What's going on?"
"They said that if you donated more than 500 yuan last year, you don't need to pay extra; you can just go and eat there."
"Oh, I see. So that means only Mom has to pay extra in our family."
Feng Ye remembers that his father donated 500 yuan, while his mother only donated 100 yuan.
His elder brother's family, like his own, donated 1,000 yuan themselves, and 500 yuan each in the name of his wife and children.
"Yes, Mother handed in the money herself, even before I did, so I only handed in Ayu's. We've all gone, and it wouldn't be good to leave Ayu alone at home."
Ye Qingyu said, "Actually, it's not necessary. I can just cook for myself at home."
"The money has already been paid, and there's no way to get it back. We'll just go together when the time comes."
"Then I'll pay for it myself. I can't let you spend money."
"It's just a few dollars, why are you being so polite with your sister?"
"this……"
“Even if it's about money, it's not your turn. I'll go ask Ah-chan for it.”
Feng Ye couldn't help but make another joke.
Ye Qingyu's face flushed again, and she stamped her foot: "Brother-in-law..."
"Haha, just kidding."
Feng Ye turned and left the kitchen. Seeing the shark fin still placed at the door, he thought for a moment and decided to move it into the workshop.
It's a bit too fishy if you keep it at home.
This was just cut off from a great white shark and hasn't been processed yet.
The great white shark, weighing over 3,000 kilograms, has quite large fins.
The combined weight of the dorsal fin, pectoral fin, caudal fin, and anal fin is not light.
Of these, only the anal fin and the second dorsal fin were slightly smaller, so they were easily moved to the workshop.
The first dorsal fin, the two pectoral fins, and the caudal fin were all enormous, and it took a lot of effort to push them into the workshop on a cart.
He doesn't plan to sell these fish fins; he'll process them tomorrow, make them into shark fin soup, and keep them for himself.
Needless to say, even though I fished for decades in my previous life, I never tasted shark fin, one of the eight delicacies of the sea.
I absolutely have to try it this time.
Shark fin is said to have the effect of strengthening the spleen and replenishing qi.
It can nourish yin and strengthen yang, invigorate qi and stimulate appetite, and has a very good conditioning effect on people with spleen and stomach deficiency and cold, and indigestion.
It also has beauty and skin-nourishing effects.
It contains abundant collagen, which nourishes and softens the skin, beautifies the complexion, and makes the skin more moisturized.
Of course, some argue that shark fin has no medicinal or health benefits.
Because the Compendium of Materia Medica does not record its efficacy, it only states: "(The shark) has a crest on its back and fins on its belly. It is delicious and fat, and is treasured by people in the south."
Feng Ye didn't care.
Even better, it's perfect for Ye Qingling, to nourish her.
If not, then let's satisfy our cravings.
...
After dinner, Feng Ye took a shower and lay half-reclined on the bed, staring at the ceiling, waiting for Ye Qingling to finish her work.
Suddenly, he remembered the Harvest and a whole host of questions popped into his head.
For example, where is the Harvest now?
Are they on their way back?
Will I be able to make it back tomorrow?
What he really wanted to know was how much the Harvest ship had caught and how much money he would get.
The Rising Sun earned over 90,000 yuan on this trip, while the Harvest went even earlier.
Moreover, it's a large ship, so the catch from hauling it in will only be greater.
Without going into too much detail, Feng Ye estimates that it could be as high as 100,000 to 200,000.
