MTL - Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982-Chapter 49 share the money

  Chapter 49 The money is divided

   "These are not mine. I brought sacks. These two bags belong to me. There is also a small pile here. Others didn't bring sacks, so they piled them on the boat. Now they all ran back to get the bags."

   After explaining, Ye Yaodong handed the bamboo basket and the bucket to his mother, "I caught this, you can take it to Ah Cai and ask, if the sea centipede will be taken away, there are seven blue crabs in the bamboo basket..."

  Mother Ye was stunned by his harvest, "So many blue crabs! There are so many things to catch on the isolated island, and there are sea centipedes? This bucket is not light!"

  Looking at the sea centipede wriggling in the bucket, she didn't feel disgusted, but was very happy, her eyes were shining. This sea centipede is a good thing, and there is no such thing on the tidal flat at their door.

"No one is involved in the isolated island, and everything is densely packed on the reef. Look at these mussels, sea melon seeds are huge, and other people have also caught a few blue crabs, which are quite good. If it weren't for the fear that these shells are too big. There are too many, I can’t finish eating, and I can dig some more.”

"It's ok, it's ok, it's too wasteful if you can't finish eating it, and I'll sell it for you. Is there anything else?" Ye Mu happily held the bucket in one hand and the bamboo basket in the other. The third son is so reliable, she is happier than making money by herself.

Ye Yaodong kicked the small pile next to his feet, "There are still some that need to be sorted out. Some snails are quite big and can be sold, and there are bergamot. Let's forget about the cheap mussels? Save them for Workers who build houses eat."

   "Okay, then I'll sell these first, and those shells will be picked later."

  When other people brought sacks to load, Father Ye's fishing boat also came in.

I heard Ye's mother said that the third child's harvest was very good today. He also caught half a bucket of sea centipedes and seven blue crabs, and sold them for more than ten yuan. He also picked up two sacks of shellfish. , The goods on the Internet today are not as much as yesterday, and they only sold about 20 yuan in total.

  The third child went in the morning and came back in the afternoon to gain so much, which is already very good.

After the family helped to transport the shellfish home, Mother Ye first picked out some mussels, which happened to be used to cook a pot of noodle soup for the workers to serve as snacks. Delayed.

   Ye Yaodong poured half a pot of tea as soon as he got home, and then sat in the main room to rest, waiting for a while to eat.

  Father Ye was shirtless, and after taking a few puffs from his precious hookah, he asked Ye Yaodong, "Did the others gain a lot?"

   "Not as much as me."

   After a day of exhaustion, he actually doesn't really want to talk, he just wants to eat quickly and then take a good rest.

   "There will be no tide tomorrow. Let's see if we can rent another boat when the tide comes back on the 15th."

   "The old lady raised the price for sitting on the floor, it's not easy to rent, it's too expensive, let's talk about it later."

  If you can’t get all the money back, isn’t that a day for nothing?

  Father Ye nodded, "Then let's see when the time comes. After dinner, I will go to A Cai's house with my daughter-in-law, and get back the more than 1,000 yuan sold yesterday. We will share as much as we should."

"Um."

  Lin Xiuqing also knew that Ye Yaodong was back after Mother Ye delivered the snacks, and took the money that Mother Ye secretly gave her for selling the goods, and rushed home without thinking about eating the snacks first.

  When she ran home, Ye Yaodong had just finished eating and put down the bowl and chopsticks, "Have you had any dim sum? There is still some in the mother's pot."

"good."

  Father Ye and Ye Yaohua went to the homestead after they were full, leaving only the couple at home to talk.

  Lin Xiuqing asked while eating: "There were a lot of people around just now, Mother didn't say much, she just secretly stuffed me with a pile of ten-cent bills, and whispered that you just sold the goods."

   "Well..." Ye Yaodong told her about today's harvest, and pointed to the back door, indicating that there was still a pile of shellfish at the back door.

   "After you finish eating, pick it up and see if there is anything you can sell, and send it to A Cai in a while, and pay yesterday's bill by the way."

  Lin Xiuqing nodded with a smile on her face. Nothing makes her happier than her husband earning money.

  Looking at the obvious change in his wife's attitude in the past few days, Ye Yaodong felt that it was worth being a little tired.

   "Mother seems to have sold three little white chapters, otherwise I can cook wine for you."

"What do you eat? If you can sell it for money, you must sell it for money. Recently, when Dad trawled the net, there are a lot of small fish and shrimps left. There is no shortage of food at home now, and you have dug so many shellfish. You can't even eat them." It's over."

  How can it be the same?

  In her previous life, she got bowel cancer and died. It must have something to do with her diet. He has always felt very guilty. When he came back, he wanted to make her eat better as much as possible.

   "Well, let's talk about it after the separation."

  The whole family lived together, and they didn't like to eat alone, and he was a waste of life before. If he started a small stove, the two sisters-in-law would have something to say again.

  Lin Xiuqing quickly ate the meal, washed the dishes, and went to the backyard to pick out everything she thought was worth a little money.

  Big snails, pen holders, wild abalones, etc. were all picked out by her and packed in separate buckets, leaving only the small ones that couldn’t be sold to eat.

  To tell the truth, when he digs, he always picks the big ones. Given her such a selection, there is not much left.

   Fortunately, she doesn't like mussels and sea melon seeds, so she can keep two bags.

   "Should the sea oysters be sold?"

   "Forget it? It's such a big bag, I'm sure you'll have to help open it. You won't be able to finish it all by yourself tonight. Let's keep it at home and eat it together."

   "Okay then!" Lin Xiuqing felt a little regretful, such a big bag of spat can open several catties of sea oysters.

  Ye Yaodong looked at her as a money fan, and smiled, "Okay, bring yesterday's receipt, I'll call Ah Guang and the others, and we'll go to Ah Cai to count the money together."

"good."

  Come out of Ah Cai’s house with a large sum of money in his arms, Ye Yaodong looks at the sea not far away, this is the treasure house of the whole village.

  I heard that his grandfather was not originally from the village, but was begging all the way from Zhejiang Province because of the famine, and then settled in the village, relying on the sea to eat.

  This sea has raised too many people.

  After looking away, he said cheerfully: "Let's go, go to A Guang's house to share the spoils!"

  1601 yuan, 8 cents and 8 cents is a lot of money for today’s people. One worker’s salary for two years, and four people share it. After deducting the boat rent and diesel expenses, one person also has 397.

   "My wife did the math, and it's about 397 per person. Everyone counts their own money, counts it all, and then sees how much change is left. Check if it's right!"

  Ye Yaodong put a pile of dimes on the table and asked everyone to count them by themselves.

   Lin Xiuqing had already collected the money from their additional sales, and didn't mix it up.

  Everyone happily counted all the money. After receiving it, there was 1.80 cents left on the table. Ye Yaodong smiled and asked: "There is more than 1. Are you going to divide it or..."

   "You don't need to share it? It doesn't make sense to share a few cents per person, so use it to buy wine."

   "That's right, I used it to buy a bar. I was tired all day. Let's celebrate in the evening. It happened that I dragged a few nets during the day, and there were shellfish. The appetizers are all ready-made."

   "Okay, okay."

   "Call everyone else!"

   "They will be envious again..."
