846: Building a Sea Kingdom
Xu Ying left home and went directly to Peking University and Tsinghua University to find Yu Xiaoye.
The mother and daughter met, and Yu Xiaoye sent Xu Ying into the space.
Xu Ying stood on the deck of the yacht, looking at the endless sea, the rafts and small boats built on the sea in recent years, and a piece of wood floating on the sea. She decided to build a sea kingdom here!
After Yu Xiaoye brought Xu Ying in, he left the space, leaving Xu Ying alone here.
Before leaving, Yu Xiaoye instructed:
"Mom, you can do some odd jobs first. If there are any heavy tasks, leave them for later. Wait for your uncle and I to come in and help. If my dad is resting in a few days, let him come and help you."
"Okay, don't worry about me. I've been in space for so many years, I know what to do. Just go and do your thing."
"Well, be careful and don't go into the sea alone."
"Um."
After Yu Xiaoye left, Xu Ying stayed alone in the space, ready to make a big move.
All things are difficult at the beginning, so let's start with the simple ones. She should make shrimp paste, dried shrimp and dried fish first. She has made these many times before and is very skilled at them.
It just so happened that the bucket on the deck was full of fish and shrimp that had been caught earlier but not eaten. I made these first.
The first step is to dry the shrimp.
Carry the two large buckets of shrimps on the deck to the kitchen, cook them first, and then put the cooked shrimps on the boat to dry. The sun is good on the ocean, and the shrimps can be dried in a few days.
This job is simple and does not require any technical skills. Xu Ying cooked two buckets of shrimps in a short time and put them in a bamboo basket to dry.
After preparing the shrimp, go on to make dried fish.
Cut the big fish and hang them directly to dry in the sun. Split the smaller fish into two halves and hang them to dry in the sun.
In the past, they would throw the fish bones back into the sea. Now that they know that fish bones can be dried and ground into powder for use as feed, Xu Ying puts the fish bones on the boat to dry.
The dried fish and shrimp were all put up to dry, and she had almost used up all the fish on the yacht deck.
She didn't sit idle, but simply cast the net and caught fish herself.
In the past, this job was done by Yu Jiahui, Zhou Ziheng, and Yu Xiaoye. They loved doing it and it was never Xu Ying's turn. Now that he wants to make this his main business, he has to do it himself.
So Xu Ying followed their method and cast the fishing net into the sea.
The fishing rods on the side of the yacht were not left idle either, as they were all baited and thrown into the sea.
After finishing all this, I estimated that it was getting dark.
Xu Ying was also hungry and was about to go to the kitchen to find something to eat when Yu Xiaoye and Zhou Ziheng came in.
After the two came in, they saw a lot of dried fish and dried shrimps drying on the boat. It was full with almost no gaps. The fishing net was also put into the sea. It seemed that Xu Ying had done a lot of work in the past half day.
Yu Xiaoye quickly pinched his mother's arm:
"Mom, you've done so much, are you tired?"
"Not tired, not tired. We've only just started. To be honest, doing this kind of work is much easier than taking care of children. Look, I've used up all the fish and shrimp on the yacht, so I'm going to catch some more."
Seeing Xu Ying busy and happy, Zhou Ziheng said with envy:
"Mom, Xiaoye and I will help you catch fish later. We will have a few extra nets ready for you tonight."
Xu Ying knew that the two of them also wanted to play, so she happily agreed:
"Okay, after you go back home and have dinner tonight, come and help me with the work. Now go back quickly."
Yu Xiaoye asked again:
"Mom, did you tell my dad about coming to the space?"
"I came in a hurry and didn't have time to tell him, but I told him about it last night and he knows where I went."
"You didn't tell my dad, so he'll definitely be worried. So, let's go home and tell my dad so he can see you, okay?"
"Alright, then you guys go home first."
Yu Xiaoye and Zhou Ziheng left the space and returned to the car. Zhou Ziheng drove to Yu's house.
At this time, Yu Jiahui and his son Yu Erye had already returned home from get off work.
After arriving home, Cuihua came up to her father-in-law very nervously and told him that her mother-in-law had gone out with a bag in the afternoon, saying that she was going to buy goods from other places and had been gone for half a day.
When Yu Jiahui heard this, he said: Oh my god, this old woman is so skillful!
We just agreed on it last night, and we’re starting today?
Yu Erye was shocked when he heard that his mother had passed away. He asked doubtfully:
"Dad, did you quarrel with my mom and make her angry and leave?"
Yu Jiahui glared at Yu Erye:
"Do you think it's possible?"
Yu Erye: It seems impossible——
Everyone has seen who keeps their word in the family over the years. Yu Jiahui probably doesn't have the courage to drive Xu Ying away for the time being.
Xu Ying wouldn't be so upset about this. If she was really dissatisfied with someone, she would never be so angry with herself.
Then why did Xu Ying suddenly leave home?
Seeing his son and daughter-in-law looking confused, Yu Jiahui pretended to be indifferent and said:
"Okay, stop imagining it. Your mom did go out of town to buy some supplies. She told me last night that she'll be back in a few days. Don't worry."
Hearing him say this, the young couple breathed a sigh of relief. That was good.
It wasn't a big deal when Xu Ying was not at home, but now that she is suddenly gone, the whole family is very uncomfortable. Even the children are looking for their grandmother everywhere, asking when she will come back.
Although Yu Jiahui knew where the old woman was, he was always worried about her because he had never seen Xu Ying in person.
I have no appetite for food.
Coincidentally, Zhou Ziheng and Yu Xiaoye came.
As soon as Yu Jiahui saw them, he knew that they might have come to inform him, so he immediately put down his bowl and chopsticks, took them to the inner room, and lied that he had bought a good treasure today and wanted them to come in and take a look.
As soon as he entered the inner room and closed the door, Yu Jiahui asked in a low voice:
"Is your mother staying in the space?"
"Yes, I knew you must be worried, so I came here to tell you."
"Your mother is really fast
We just talked about doing seafood business last night, and she just packed up and left today."
Yu Xiaoye asked with a smile:
"Shall I take you in to see my mother now?"
Yu Jiahui thought for a moment:
"No."
"ah?"
"I'm on night duty tonight."
“——”
Before Yu Xiaoye could react to what the night shift meant, Yu Jiahui opened the door and said to Yu Erye who was eating outside:
"Second brother, I'm going back to the factory to work the night shift tonight. I won't be back. You guys take care of the house. Xiao Zhou, you take me back to the factory."
Yu Xiaoye: “——” Oh, it turns out that he was working the night shift in the space.
Yu Jiahui followed Zhou Ziheng and Yu Xiaoye. While walking on the road, Yu Jiahui couldn't wait to ask Yu Xiaoye to send him back to the space.
When I returned to the space, I saw Xu Ying eating in the cabin dining room.
Xu Ying was surprised to see that it was an old man:
"Why are you here?"
"I was just saying that, but you just left without even saying hello to me."
"Didn't I tell you last night?"
"Last night was last night. Didn't you say that today?"
“——”
When Yu Jiahui saw Xu Ying, his appetite, which had just disappeared, returned. He sat down at the table and asked:
"Is there any food left? I haven't eaten at home."
