Chu Xuan brainwashed Chu Feng, "Xiao Feng, what are you thinking about? He is a swan in the sky, and I am a toad on the ground. You have to be self-aware. Look at my fat body, and look at this fat one." How is your face worthy of him? Just because I set him up, I still feel guilty. Besides, I will not consider marriage until you become a man."
Chu Feng was puzzled, "Why do you have to wait for me to become a useful person? When will I be considered successful?"
"When you become a sensible and responsible man, you will be successful. As for why I have to wait for you to become successful, it's because I am your sister! A sister is like a mother! Eat fish quickly and don't mention this matter again!"
Chu Xuan actually wanted to say, if I consider marriage before you become a successful person, it will bring harm to your husband's family.
Mu Chenze, who was outside the courtyard wall, stopped listening.
I felt a little irritated. After the swan was tricked into kissing by the toad, the toad didn't intend to take responsibility. Shouldn't the swan be happy?
Why do swans feel rejected by toads?
After returning home, I ate a few bites of food and returned to the bedroom.
Qin Mahua and her husband Mu Qinlao murmured in a low voice, "Head of the family, have you noticed that our second child has been acting strange these past two days?"
Mu Qinlao was a carefree man, waving his hands repeatedly, "I didn't notice it. This guy got on the fishing boat and is as capable as before."
Qin Mahua felt like she was playing the piano to a cow just now, "I won't tell you anymore!"
He ran to chat with his eldest daughter-in-law, Pay Qing.
"Xiao Qing! I feel that something has been wrong with my second brother these past two days. Could it be that he is a little confused after being rejected by Chu Xuan? How about we find a matchmaker to introduce him to a partner?"
Fu Qing also noticed that his brother-in-law had not had a good appetite in the past two days, "Maybe I'm a little confused. Mom, why don't you find a matchmaker tomorrow..."
"Why are you waiting for tomorrow? I'll go tonight!"
A few minutes later, Qin Mahua carried a bag of gifts and a flashlight, and headed toward Matchmaker Wang's house in a hurry...
At around six o'clock the next morning, Chu Xuan took two buckets and other tools and prepared to go to sea.
Chu Feng walked out of the bedroom with a bowl of malted milk, "Sister, drink a bowl first to relieve your stomach. When you come back, I will prepare breakfast."
He lost track of time while reading last night. He got up late this morning and failed to make breakfast for his sister in advance.
Chu Qing happily took it and drank it.
In her previous life, she was always thinking about her little brother, but in this life she feels his warmth.
More than twenty minutes later, Chu Xuan arrived at the beach. The tide had receded quite a bit.
There are a lot of people going to the sea, and most of them are picking up clams.
Even though clams can't be sold at a good price now, they can't stop the enthusiasm of people traveling to the sea.
However, Chu Xuan did not rush to pick it up, but first tried his luck in a place with many rocks.
After a while, I picked up a one-meter-long hairtail that weighed seven or eight kilograms.
The hairtail has lost its breath, but fortunately it is still relatively fresh, with bright red gills.
This kind of fish is a deep-sea fish. As long as it comes ashore, its internal organs will explode due to the pressure difference.
Usually what people see are hairtail fish that have lost their breath.
This is a kind of sea fish that Chu Xuan never gets tired of eating.
After putting the hairtail into the bucket, Chu Xuan couldn't help but think about the deliciousness of braised and dry-fried hairtail.
After turning over a few rocks, I found a palm-sized swimming crab.
The swimming crabs this season are not fat, and one of their pincers is missing, so they cannot be sold at a good price, so they are reserved for Xiaofeng's dental shop, who has long been hungry for swimming crabs.
Must be accepted.
Put in another bucket.
After all, the swimming crab still has a pincer, and she doesn't want the hairtail she cares about to be destroyed by it.
After searching among the rocks, I found two octopuses weighing about two to three kilograms and put them into the bucket.
The reef pile here is relatively large, and the sea water has not completely receded. This does not prevent Chu Xuan from stepping on the rocks to find seafood.
His eyes fell on the sea water.
She saw many hairtail fish.
happy!
She had never picked up so many hairtails in her previous life, and neither had anyone else.
Could these hairtail fish be a gift from God to her?
This is really good luck.
Pick it up for free!
There will be no one else here.
Ten minutes later, I picked up two buckets full of hairtail fish.
As for the swimming crab, surrounded by dead hairtails, Chu Xuan didn't care at all whether it would cause damage.
As she walked towards the dock carrying the two buckets, she received many envious looks.
She picked up all the hairtails, which was her only one.
Many people who go to sea regret not going to the rocks to look for seafood. Hairtail is much more valuable than clams.
When we arrived at the dock, the hairtail fish was of good quality. Li Tong, who was collecting the fish, recognized Chu Xuan at a glance. He stepped forward to help carry the bucket and weighed it. It was sixty-five kilograms and three taels in total.
Li Tong was surprised. This was the first time he saw so many hairtails picked up by sailors. In the past, ocean fishing boats sold large quantities of hairtails...
Surprise is a surprise, and we have to settle the bill when it is due.
"Usually, I charge one dollar and thirty-one catty for hairtails that weigh more than eighty taels. Your hairtail is very big, almost one pound or more. I'll give you a purchase price of one dollar and five per catty. How about it?"
Chu Xuan picked out the one-meter-long hairtail, "I won't sell this one. There are also swimming crabs and eight claws. I'll keep them for myself. The remaining hairtails are priced at 100 yuan each. How about that?"
Li Tong silently calculated the accounts. According to the purchase price of one yuan and a half, sixty-five kilograms and three taels were ninety-eight yuan. Chu Xuan took out the longest one, which would save seven or eight kilograms. This one cost more than ten yuan.
"I can't make any money like this, so let's do this! The price is 90 yuan, how about it?"
Chu Xuan was not easy to fool, "No. The price is 95 yuan. I won't sell it for even one cent less."
Li Tong glanced at the other fish vendors not far away who were eager to try, and could only nod heartily, "Okay. If you have good products in the future, you must sell them to me!"
"no problem."
When doing business, there must be room for bargaining.
The price satisfied Chu Xuan, so Chu Xuan was too lazy to switch to other fishmongers.
Li Tong counted out ninety-five yuan and handed it to Chu Xuan.
Villagers with gossips saw this scene and went back to the village to spread the word.
When Chu Xuan returned to the village, he heard the villagers talking.
"Chu Xuan has been very lucky since the family separation."
"Yes! I had debts before the separation, and I am able to repay the debts after the separation. My mother also remits money to help build a new house. My life will definitely become more prosperous in the future."
"That Feng Chunhua just doesn't have a long-term vision..."
Chu Xuan didn't listen to the rest of the words.
More than twenty minutes later, I walked to the door of my house, stopped, and my eyes fell on the hairtail fish in the bucket.
I can't help but think that if Mu Chenze dislikes the two or three kilograms of Spanish mackerel, he shouldn't dislike the seven or eight kilograms of hairtail, right?
Should I give him a fish to repay some of the favor?
I owed him so much in my previous life, and I owe him a lot in this life too...
But she was also greedy for this hairtail. She had never eaten such a long hairtail in her entire life.
At this moment, she saw a familiar figure passing by, it was Mu Chenze.
He didn't go out with the ship today?
The moment she saw him, Chu Xuan put her hand on the hairtail, lifted it up, and said unconsciously, "Mu Chenze, I'll give you a big hairtail, weighing seven or eight pounds!"
I feel a little regretful that I can no longer enjoy the delicious taste of big hairtail.
