Chapter 27 Whoever marries whomever will be lucky
Jiang Xia is dividing the fish and doesn’t care what everyone says.
Mother Zhou came to Jiang Xia and said with a smile: "Xiao Xia, don't separate. You have a rest, I'll come, I'll share."
"I'll pick out some shrimps and take them back. Eat." Jiang Xia was just picking out fish and shrimps to take home. After a busy day, she had to treat herself well.
"I have cooked the food, but you are tired today, so pick more. Pick what you like, and I will cook it when I get back."
Father Zhou is still bragging, and Zhou Chenglei is also bragging. Come help divide the fish.
The three of them picked out some valuable fish from the pile on the boat and sold them for another ten yuan. The rest were taken home and dried in the sun for daily consumption.
Jin Ye from the purchasing office took a look at the bucket of goods that Zhou Chenglei had kept.
In the bucket were two large yellow croakers, about a pound of monodon shrimp, a few small red squids, a few flower crabs, and a dozen mud fish.
There are also baskets of small fish and shrimps.
He smiled and said: "Don't you want to sell these? Sell them together and give you twelve yuan in total."
Zhou Chenglei: "No."
Tian Caihua asked: "No? Are you taking these large yellow croakers and shrimps back to eat?”
“Yes.”
Jiang Xia said that she would keep one large yellow croaker to make pickled fish, but he simply kept two large yellow croakers. Nutrition, she is weak, nourish her body.
Tian Caihua looked at the two large yellow croakers in the bucket and thought, could one of them be for their family?
Seeing that Zhou Chenglei had two large yellow croakers left, Zhou’s mother thought he was going to give one to his eldest son.
Although I thought it would be better to sell it for money, I didn’t say anything.
If she caught a large yellow croaker on weekdays, she would definitely be reluctant to eat it. She would sell it for money. What she usually eats at home are some worthless small fish, shrimps and crabs.
If there are no guests coming, even if it is not a Chinese New Year or a holiday, I will not be willing to eat a fish bigger than a palm.
But I made a lot of money today and misunderstood Jiang Xia, so I deserved a good meal.
After selling the remaining goods, the family happily returned home carrying a bucket of fish and a basket of small miscellaneous fish.
After walking to the door of the old house, Zhou Chenglei asked Tian Caihua: "Sister-in-law, do you want to take some mud fish back to eat?"
Mud fish? Not a big yellow croaker?
Tian Caihua's face dropped: "No, I have food at home."
It's not like there's nothing to eat, but he's still missing a few worthless mud fish?
She left with a dark face.
Jiang Xia was very satisfied that Zhou Chenglei did not give the large yellow croaker to the field to pick flowers.
Mother Zhou looked at the two large yellow croakers weighing about a pound each in the bucket and hesitated to speak.
Don’t even give one of the two fish to the eldest son’s family? Is it a bit extravagant for only a few of them to eat two large yellow croakers?
She looked at Jiang Xia.
Father Zhou saw what Mother Zhou was thinking and said: "Xiaoxia went to sea for the first time today. She has been busy with Chenglei for a day, so she must be tired. You quickly killed the fish and cooked it. Let's eat!"< br>
Jiang Xia pretended not to understand what Zhou’s mother meant, and just said: “It’s okay, I’m not tired, I’ll do the fish!”
No one mentioned it, and Zhou’s mother didn’t say anything either. .
Forget it, the world of Zai Dazai has been divided, and everyone is living their own lives.
Mother Zhou was not the kind of person who asked her daughter-in-law to do housework when she came back from a busy day, so she said: "No, you go take a shower and rest, I will do it."
She has already steamed the rice, dried the fish, and washed the vegetables before going out. She plans to eat them as soon as she comes back and fry them. Now she just needs to steam two more large yellow croakers and shrimps.
Jiang Xia: "It's okay, I'll make the pickled fish. That one is more appetizing, so I'll do it."
Zhou's mother couldn't make the pickled fish, so Jiang Xia had to do it, and she took the initiative. Originally, Zhou's mother planned for her to kill fish, but she didn't expect that Jiang Xia would also kill fish.
Zhou's mother has been killing fish all her life, and her knife skills are superb. But when she saw Jiang Xia slice the fish into thin slices, each slice was the same size and thickness, she was still shocked!
The wife here is hiding her secrets!
It is better to marry an educated wife!
Educated, capable, and blessed!
Whoever marries will be blessed!
Zhou's father and Zhou Chenglei killed the baskets of fish and dried them.
Jiang Xia was in charge of cooking, Zhou’s mother was washing vegetables, and Zhou Zhou was lighting the fire. The three of them worked together to make a pickled fish, a steamed shrimp with minced garlic, a clay fish stew, and a plate of boiled red squid. There is a dish of green vegetables.
Mother Zhou looked at such a large plate of pickled fish and said, "We can't finish all the dishes today. How about I give Wenguang and his brothers a plate?"
Jiang Xiazheng washed a clean plate: "Next time, this time it's not enough. I put a plate on it and gave it to my great-grandmother. Yesterday she gave us a piece of three kilograms of meat and a big watermelon."
After hearing this, Zhou’s mother hurriedly said: “You are still thoughtful, it’s time to send it, put more fish on it, do you want me to send it over?”
The village is very strict about coming and going. Yesterday, my great-grandmother sent three kilograms of meat. Today, they sent over a plate of new dishes for them to try.
"No, I'll just go. Mom, please serve the food!"
Mother Zhou didn't insist, it would be the same no matter who delivered it, so she started to carry the food.
Jiang Xia walked out of the courtyard holding a plate of pickled fish and saw Zhou Junjie walking out holding a rice bowl.
Zhou Junjie saw Jiang Xia's eyes light up, and shook her hair from her forehead. He thought he was handsome and said, "This is the dish cooked by my sister-in-law? It's so delicious! Can I try it?"
Then his eyes fell on the pickled fish in Jiang Xia's hand.
He was attracted by the smell of food, and it was the same thing last night. The food coming from the yard next door was so fragrant that he had no appetite for the simple meals at home.
Zhou Junjie's eyes first fell on the pickled fish, then on the small white hands holding the pickled fish, and finally on Jiang Xia's bulging chest, unable to move away.
Jiang Xia hated his gaze, ignored him, turned around and walked to the yard on the left.
When going to sea today, Jiang Xia did not wear good-quality clothes for fear that they would be soaked if wet. Instead, she wore a sweat-absorbent and stain-resistant sea soul shirt and a pair of military green trousers.
The sea soul shirt is knitted and has a bit of stretch. The original owner likes to wear slim-fitting clothes. When this sea soul shirt is worn on her body, it looks like her waist is particularly thin, with the front and back curved, and the exposed half of her arms and neck are shining white.
Zhou Junjie felt hot in his stomach, the wife Zhou Chenglei married is so damn exciting!
No wonder he is reluctant to divorce even if he is cheated on.
What a vixen!
But since she can run away with other men, can she also run with herself...
Suddenly a plate of fish-killing blood splashed out, splashing all over him. Covered in fish scales and internal organs.
Zhou Junjie was almost vomited by the smell of fish, "Who the hell..."
He turned around and looked at Zhou Chenglei's gloomy eyes, which frightened him Ji Ling: "It turns out to be Chenglei! Why don't you look at people when you splash water?"
After saying that, he quickly hid in his yard with a bowl of "fish soup" in his hands.
Jiang Xia was delivering food to her great-grandma. They were having dinner at home. She put it down and said a few words before coming out. She happened to see Zhou Junjie, who was in a state of embarrassment, hiding back in the house, and she felt instantly refreshed.
Find another day when no one is around and let him see why the flowers are so red.
Zhou's mother's voice sounded in the yard: "Lei, why did you throw out the fish-killing water and stink up the doorway."
Zhou Chenglei: "It's easy, it will take a while. I'll rinse it off."
Jiang Xia walked in and glanced at him with a smile. Zhou Chenglei met her gaze nonchalantly and said softly, "It's time to eat."
Jiang Xia smiled: "Okay. .”
