Ye Yaodong smacked the small glass of wine left in the cup into his mouth, drank it slowly before putting it down, glanced at Lin Xiuqing, smiled and waved his hand twice in front of her eyes.

"I'm telling you, it's worth keeping such good things for your own consumption. Otherwise, if you sell them, it will be cheaper for others. Who am I doing all this hard work for? Isn't it just for the whole family to eat well?"

"You can't work so hard to let others eat good things, while you still have to eat braised vegetables in a miserable way? Right? It makes sense, right? So you have to keep the good things for yourself."

"You think you are so reasonable, why didn't you tell me earlier? Why did you hide it secretly?"

She actually said it so confidently. She was convinced by this person. It was obviously something he was wrong about, but he always said it so confidently and with some sense. It was very similar to that.

.

It was as if they were making a fuss and scratching their heads.

"No, when did I hide it secretly? I killed it openly. You said it yourself two hours ago. Fish that can be struck by lightning are quite rare. We don't need that little money now.

It’s just right to keep it at home and take it as a tonic.”

Lin Xiuqing shot herself in the foot and stared with anger.

"I'm talking about keeping the fish worth tens of yuan for myself. That's okay. How do I know that this fish is worth a thousand yuan? If I knew it was worth a thousand yuan, would I still be able to say this? You also did it on purpose. At that time, I

When he said this, he deliberately did not mention the value of the fish, nor did he tell me what kind of fish it was."

Ye Yaodong pretended to be innocent, "I think it's rare too, and I think the same as you. What's more, the most expensive thing is really isinglass. The value of this fish is really not much different from what you said. I have saved all the isinglass."

, what else do you want?”

"Let me tell you, we are absolutely right to keep this fish maw. Don't look at me killing this fish. I killed it right. The isinglass made from this kind of fish maw becomes more expensive as it ages, and the longer it ages, the moister it becomes.

The longer the better.”

"It doesn't make much sense if you just sell the fish with fish maw for a thousand yuan in one go, and you will still suffer heavy losses. You can only make money by keeping it in your hands. The more you keep it, the more valuable it is, do you understand?"

"Putting good things in your hands will make them more valuable in the future. Besides, wouldn't it be better to keep the fish that jumped over the dragon gate and was struck by lightning to eat for yourself? Do you want to sell the fish for tens of dollars? Eat it in your own stomach

What’s in it belongs to you. Isn’t it better to keep fit than to have dozens of dollars more?”

"You can't buy a good body with any amount of money. I saw you drink a bowl of fish soup and your whole face will turn red and your face will shine."

"Stop talking nonsense, do you think this matter will be over with just a few words of coaxing from you?"

Lin Xiuqing was really angry after what she told him, but it wasn't that easy for him to get away with it.

At this time, the old lady said: "What Dongzi said makes sense. This isinglass will not go bad if it is stored. The older it is, the better it is, and the older it is, the more valuable it is. If it was stored more than ten or twenty years ago, it would have been small in size."

It’s worth just a few dozen yuan, and the one in better condition costs more than a hundred yuan.”

"I didn't expect that when I heard you say that now, it would be worth a thousand dollars. Then it wouldn't be worth more in the future? I just saw it, and the isinglass is quite big. I'm sure it will show off its appearance.

It’s the best.”

"The origin of this fish is so famous. It will definitely be more valuable after you put it in your hands. It's okay that Dongzi didn't sell the fish directly. He just put it in his hands and exchanged it for money when needed. Such a big fish is rare. If he sells it, it will be worthless.

Already."

Father Ye was petrified when he heard this. He stopped arguing with Mother Ye and stared straight at his mother.

What is double standard?

Damn it, is there such a big difference in attitude towards my son and my grandson?

He couldn't tell that she was an old lady in her eighties or nineties with the force she just hit him with. She wished she could break his legs without holding back at all. Fortunately, he wore thick clothes and pants.

He cursed at him, saying that he was living in a dog's belly for a long time, and he only knew how to eat when he didn't have enough. He didn't know how to stop Dongzi, and scolded him like a bloody old guy.

, what a bad old man, he scolded me without mercy at all.

Does it turn around so quickly now?

What Huan Dongzi said makes sense!!!

It’s okay if you didn’t sell the fish!!!

Once sold, it’s gone!!!

She doesn't change her face so quickly.

It's not over yet, and the old lady doesn't think there's anything wrong with what she said.

"After all, this was struck by lightning. It would be a pity to sell it. It only costs a few dozen yuan. It's better to keep it for your family to recuperate. You all work so hard and are so busy every day that your feet never touch the ground.

The little ones are also growing, and reading is a waste of their brains, so it’s time to eat more.”

Father Ye's face turned even darker. He just scolded him for knowing how to eat, and now he was urging him to eat more.

"Just keep the expensive isinglass. There's no loss after all. That's all for today. Don't argue anymore. If you eat everything, you can eat a big fish for many days. You'll be covered in all kinds of fish."

It’s good meat.”

"That's not what you said just now. You scolded me so much just now that you even beat me with a cane without hesitation."

The old lady was confident and did not feel guilty at all, "That was just now, and now is now. Just now, I was just patronizing and feeling distressed, and didn't think about it. Now that Dongzi said this, I feel that what he did is right."

"Anyway, I have saved the valuable isinglass so it doesn't get lost. If you eat the fish, you can eat it. You can eat it for a long time. If we say it, won't we be proud of it? You can still brag about it even when you are old.

than a fish struck by lightning.”

"You can brag about it when you get out later. There are so many people in the workshop and it will spread throughout the village in no time."

Father Ye almost made his mother angry, and her unreasonable behavior got to him.

Ye's mother had just been scolding Ye's father. After arguing for a while, she was no longer so angry. Now, listening to the two aunts and grandsons' arguments, she felt that it was not unacceptable.

Anyway, I ate them all and saved the good isinglass. After deducting the isinglass, the fish was only worth a few dozen yuan. She would definitely feel bad if she sold the fish for a few tens of yuan.

If she hadn't killed them, she would have had to sell them whole. Now, she could only reluctantly accept them, after all, she also ate them.

"Forget it, forget it, I've eaten all of it. I hope it can really strengthen my body. Otherwise, I'll skin you and keep the isinglass. Ah Qing, keep an eye on it and don't let him get mad anymore."

"If this happens to Huo Huo again, your grandfather will have to get up from the ground and strangle you to death. I don't know how you gave birth to such a prodigal thing."

Ye's father also glared at Ye's mother. He had also scolded him so harshly just now, but now he was so easy to talk to. He turned around and was scolded by an old man and a young man in a few words.

"What are you looking at? Are you going to spit it out?"

"If you can, spit it out first?"

"Oh, don't make any noise. You still have to make noise after eating good food. Be content. I think the food is quite good. The old lady's face is rosy. She feels several years younger all of a sudden. My mother

Yes, it looks like my complexion has improved, which is an effect that no amount of facial cream can bring out."

"Are you angry?" Father Ye said the truth bluntly.

The smiles that had originally appeared on the faces of the old lady and Ye's mother froze in an instant, and they both turned to stare at Ye's father.

"Don't let anyone tell you the truth anymore? It's obvious that the fish soup contains wine, that's why you drank it and your face turned red. You were bragging as if you had taken some magical medicine. You can brag nonsense when you open your mouth."

Father Ye glanced at them a few times with a depressed face, then simply put his hands behind his back and walked outside without seeing them.

He is not human inside and out.

He obviously didn't do anything, but it felt like it was all his fault.

"Dad, remember to take off the quilt on the boat to dry it, as you just said."

"Why should I bask in the sun? It's going to rain. How can I get it without a boat?" After saying this, the man had already stepped out.

Ye Mu was still thinking about the fish she had just eaten, "How many kilograms of fish did you stew at noon? How much is 100? How much is left? Has it been put away? In the past few days, the weather has cooled down again, and it has become a little colder.

, otherwise the one that is too big will not be able to finish eating and will not be able to be put away."

"There are four buckets in the corner, all covered with ice. You should be able to eat them for four or five days. The ones in the basin are fish heads, fish tails and livers. Put the fish heads to make tofu soup tomorrow, and fish tails and livers.

Leave it to braise at night.”

"It's so much that we can't finish it at home. I only gave a little to my friends. There is no ice cubes for the eldest and second brothers, so it's not easy to store them. I won't give them more today. I'll give them a few slices tomorrow. You

Let’s see if you want to give some to relatives and friends?”

"What to give? Keep this good stuff for yourself. Even if you have money, you can't buy it. Once you eat it, it will be gone. Others don't have any good stuff for us. Why do you keep giving it away? What goes around comes around. Keep it.

Eat it slowly. If you really can't finish it, just marinate it with salt. It can be kept for a long time and it won't go bad."

If you don’t go door-to-door and it’s already settled, why should you give it back? What should you give?

They say it can strengthen the body, why are they giving it away? I can’t even eat it at home.

Ye Yaodong pursed his lips, it didn't matter, it would be better not to give it away.

If it weren't for the fact that his mother often sent some fish and groceries to his aunts, he wouldn't have asked in vain.

However, none of the relatives would give it away. Director Chen had to give some away anyway. It wasn't raining yet and he had nothing to do in the afternoon. He didn't need to be busy in the workshop at all. He just happened to make a trip and take advantage of the fresh slaughter in the morning.

Yes, the freshest.

Father Ye and Mother Ye left one after another. Lin Xiuqing had nothing to say to him. She just glanced at him angrily, then cleared the table and urged the children to eat quickly and not to waste time.

"I picked up all the rice grains on the table and ate them. I ate for a long time, and after a long time, everyone had finished eating, except you."

Among the children, those with chopsticks took their chopsticks and those with spoons immediately got down to work.

Ye Xiaoxi stood up while digging with a spoon. He put his hands on the table and buried his face in the rice bowl to lick it.

Pei Yu looked at her and put her hands on the table, standing up and burying her head in the table to eat.
