Chapter 138 The Impoverished Mother-in-Law in the Period Literature 18
Although people say that the Lin family favors boys over girls, they have never given up on any girl. There are no children from their family on the Nuyingpo slope on the north mountain. They raise all of them well and send them to school, which is better than many families in the village. You can also say that they do not favor boys over girls. They have already given birth to seven children and still want to have another son.
I couldn’t afford the fine for having more children than allowed, so I had to hide every time my belly got a little bigger.
"You're welcome. The child is important, and so is your health."
Nan Yi's eyes were red. No one had ever cared about her so much, but she had to give birth to this baby. Not for anything else, but just to save face. It was because others always laughed at her for not being able to give birth to a son.
Don't fight for steamed buns but for breath.
Besides, with this job, I can earn an extra 300 yuan a month, which is enough to support another child.
Yun Xi turned back to the house and told the second child, "Remember to go to the clinic to get condoms. Don't have any more children. It costs several thousand yuan for each extra child."
Zhou Guanxue blushed, "Mom, what are you talking about? Lili and I will not have any more children."
"That's good, that's good. Three kids are enough. Good eugenics and good upbringing."
Yun Xi reacted and left awkwardly.
Two days later, Zhou Lingling's tofu shop opened. Yun Xi had told Zhou Guanxue yesterday to go to the next village and tell them that they didn't want his goods today.
Therefore, as soon as Zhou Lingling’s tofu shop opened, the first order was to deliver goods to her family.
Dried tofu, bean curd skin, bean curd sheets, bean sprouts, all served in large quantities.
Yun Xi wrote a note to Zhou Lingling, asking her family to come and settle the money at the end of the month.
"Auntie, I passed by the village yesterday and heard that Brother Guanxue was deceived by a man named Datou from another village?"
"Yes, he cheated two groups of people, all of whom were fellow villagers from all over the place. He actually cheated them like this." Yun Xi said hatefully.
Zhou Lingling brought a piece of news.
"I met him in the capital. I thought he looked familiar then, but I only recently remembered it was him."
Yun Xi quickly asked, "Where did you see him in the capital? Are you sure it was him?"
Zhou Lingling nodded heavily. "It's him. He has a big mole next to his nose, right? I remember it very clearly. I saw him at the Huimin Stir-fry Restaurant near our school."
"That's definitely him. I'll ask Guanxue to go to the police station."
Yun Xi asked her second son to go to the police station to report the clue. Regardless of whether the criminal could be caught or not, at least they had a direction.
At the beginning, the big boss said that he would introduce me to a job in the south, with a monthly salary of 900 yuan, including food, accommodation, and travel expenses, and an introduction fee of 100 yuan. He was taking money from both ends, which was really shameless.
"Mom, I'll go right away."
Zhou Guanxue's eyes flashed with ferocity.
"Go ahead. You can go to the braised meat shop to help out later. Mom won't go today."
Wang Lili ran over with a bowl of millet porridge in her hand. "Guanxue, have breakfast first. There's no rush. Breakfast is good for your health."
Zhou Guanxue reluctantly took the porridge and gulped it down, then put the empty bowl in the kitchen. "If you want to go together, then go together. I really can't do anything about you."
Yun Xi stared blankly at the two of them leaving, thinking that these two were really clingy.
Zhou Fu said, "Old lady, do you want to go out to sea with me?"
Yun Xi didn't want to go, "Are three people too busy?"
Zhou Fu looked at her and said, "I've had bad luck recently. There aren't many seafood catches. I don't even want to go out to sea. I'm just hoping you'll be lucky and see if you can change your luck."
Yun Xi thought about it and agreed. She had a system. She could scan and find out where the good seafood was. It would be bad if she never got the good stuff.
"System, I'm going to trouble you later."
Yun Xi ordered a lot of gifts for the system, and the system was her good helper.
"Wow! Thank you, host. Leave it to me."
After locking the door, Yun Xi went out to sea.
Standing at the bow, looking at the turbulent sea below, Yun Xi asked the system: "Is there anything good?"
“There’s not a lot of good stuff.”
"Ok."
"Host, host, there are a lot of octopuses and blue crabs in the area ahead, so you can put a ground trap there."
"Zhou Fu, put the trap here."
Zhou Fu nodded, "Okay, let's give it a try. We didn't get much before."
At this time they were quite far away from the coast. Because they were on a large boat, they could go farther and did not have to gather with other fishermen to fish.
"Host, move forward. I think I see a black sea bream."
"Okay, Daddy, have you put the fish cages away? Let's go."
"All right."
Not long after the fishing boat moved forward, Yun Xirang slowed down. "I feel there should be fish here, so let's cast our nets here."
"Loose the net, drop the net, big dog, come and drop the net."
"Uncle, I'll be right there."
Yun Xi and the other two stared at the fishing net nervously. In the cockpit, Er Gouzi controlled the speed of the fishing boat, which slowly moved forward.
Zhou Fu felt that the time was almost up, "Big Dog, close the net!"
"it is good."
Big Dog was the first to spot it. "Black snapper! Oh my god, it's a black snapper."
"Really? That's great."
Zhou Fu thought that the old woman was quite good at sea transportation. Black sea bream was a little more expensive than prawns, at 17 yuan per catty. This net contained more than 1,000 catties. My God, one net was equivalent to other people's monthly income.
Yun Xi was thinking that once the Japanese devils discharged nuclear waste water, fishermen would no longer make money, so it would be a good idea to catch more fish now.
"Uncle, I'm rich!" Da Gouzi operated the net-lifting machine, his eyes fixed on the fishing net. "I think it weighs more than a thousand pounds."
"Haha! I finally made some money. I'll give you guys some red envelopes later."
Zhou Fule couldn't stop grinning. When he completely forgot about it, he quickly asked him to continue fishing.
There were so many sea fish on the deck that there was no place to step. Yun Xi took a wooden bucket, put on gloves, and squatted on the deck to sort the fish quickly. Zhou Fu watched the fishing net go down and called Da Gouzi to help.
"Old lady, you should go out to sea with me from now on, and let the second son and his wife take care of the business at home." Zhou Fu smiled with wrinkles on his face. This was the best harvest since he went out to sea this year.
"Okay, but four people can't handle it. We need to hire two more."
Because our own fishing boat goes far out to sea, the salary is relatively high, twenty-five yuan a day, including lunch, so it is easy to recruit people.
"If we can always harvest so much, we should hire more people." Zhou Fu agreed. "Let's count Lin Xiaobei as one. He told me before, how about asking Yingfeng for the other one?"
"You go negotiate with my sister-in-law. I don't get along with them."
"Row."
Yun Xi didn't consider her son-in-law because the distance was far and it was inconvenient to travel there.
"The next net will do."
Zhou Fu stood up and took Da Gouzi to collect the net. Er Gouzi parked the boat and came out to help.
"This net didn't catch much, not a thousand pounds."
"That's normal. There are quite a lot of these. Come and clean them up. After that, we can go back directly. The fish cages will be cleaned up tomorrow morning."
Big Dog felt he had to ask, "Are we taking a break this afternoon?"
Zhou Fu waved his hand and said, "Take a rest. Your salary remains the same."
The four people worked for more than half an hour and started sailing for the return journey. They arrived at the dock at noon.
"Zhou Laosi's boat came back quite early today."
The purchasing office owners guarding the beach were very curious.
