Chapter 28 durian
Although he was full of confidence when he released the words, after more than an hour, he still hadn’t found a big crab.
On the other hand, Rarity came out on top and found three crawfish in a row, one more than the one who found the crawfish first. However, his showing off was not so obvious. He just glanced at the iron bucket from time to time, and then pretended to be casual and said, “Mom, the three lobsters I found are crawling very fast.”
Lin Wei: “…”
Okay, I know you found “three” lobsters.
Although they didn’t find any crabs, they could say they had a lot of harvest today. There were several layers of shellfish on the bottom, most of which were sixties and many clams and conchs, enough for at least two dishes to fry. Climbing shrimp also caught eight or nine, barely enough for a dish.
Thinking about it in her heart, Lin Wei saw Liu Dan and the others approaching from a distance, and the three of them were beaming with joy.
When the people walked up to them, they saw that they all had half a bucket of seafood. Yang Yi found a sea cucumber with a thickness of three fingers, a dozen or so crawling shrimp, and even the sixtieth conch was bigger than what Lin Wei and the others found.
Zhao Li found an elephant snail, two swimming crabs, and the others were similar to Yang Yi. Liu Dan didn’t find any special seafood, but he caught a lot of crabs, seven or eight, enough for a big meal.
Although they separated when they got there, Liu Dan still remembered what he said before he came, and he was very old and gave the biggest crab to Mingming.
Mingming was very surprised: “Really? Is this crab really for me?”
Lin Wei was a little embarrassed, you know, this crab has eight or nine taels, so she quickly rejected it.
Liu Dan first gave Mingming an affirmative answer, and then said to Lin Wei, “This is what I promised Mingming, and it has nothing to do with you.”
She said so, and she looked expectant, so Lin Wei stopped fiddling and said, “Have steamed crabs at noon.”
“There are crabs to eat!” Mingming cheered.
At this time, the sun had climbed high in the sky, and the temperature continued to rise. The few people did not delay much at the seaside and went back to the family area.
On the way, Zhao Li also asked where Lin Wei bought her hat. She also wore a hat when she came, but it was an ordinary straw hat and looked a little dirty, so she didn’t wear it very often, but she wore it once when she was rushing to the sea and went to the family area. will be taken off.
As the face of a supply and marketing agency, Zhao Li still cares about her image.
As soon as Zhao Li asked, Liu Dan also remembered: “By the way, you haven’t told me where you bought the hat?” She asked Lin Wei this question in the morning, but she got lost in the chat.
Yang Yi also looked over, obviously interested in the hat on Lin Wei’s head.
Lin Wei didn’t hide it and said, “Sister Deng made the hat and gave it to me.”
“Didn’t you buy it from outside?” Liu Dan was a little disappointed.
Yang Yi didn’t know Lin Wei very well, so she asked in confusion, “Who is Sister Deng?”
Liu Dan introduced: “Just Deng Xiangyun, the daughter-in-law of Deputy Instructor Zhou.”
“She!” Yang Yi suddenly realized, “Then she is quite skillful, so it takes a little effort to make this hat.”
Zhao Li really liked the hat on Lin Wei’s head, and asked, “Xiao Lin, can you help me and ask if she can make one for me too, and I’ll charge a little more for the craftsmanship.”
Liu Dan got to know Deng Xiangyun a little more, and before Lin Wei could answer, he said, “I don’t think it will happen. It’s a speculative fight.”
Zhao Li thought that just charging for the craftsmanship is nothing but speculation. Those people who are reluctant to buy ready-to-wear and can’t make clothes, don’t they all pay for the craftsmanship to make clothes? I haven’t seen anything wrong with people making clothes.
But as soon as the words came to her lips, Zhao Li remembered that Deng Xiangyun had always acted carefully because of her poor composition, and sighed and said, “If that’s the case, then forget it.” Let’s not cause trouble.
…
Because the harvest was full, Lin Wei was not stingy at noon, steamed the crabs, fried the crawfish and shellfish together, and peeled off some egg pancakes.
After lunch, Lin Wei took a shower for the two children and herself.
Although the sun was not shining in the morning, the mother and son were all sweaty after standing under the sun for so long.
Not only sweaty, but also very tired, the brothers are better, they are short in stature, just bend slightly when looking for seafood. But Lin Wei is an adult, no matter how tall she is, she is 1.63 meters tall. Not only does she have to bend over, she also has to bend her legs.
When I was busy, I didn’t realize that when I got home and rested, Lin Wei suffered from backache and leg cramps. She just wanted to go back upstairs and lie down. She insisted on cooking lunch with tenacious perseverance.
Therefore, after taking a shower, Lin Wei didn’t wash her clothes, and she took the two children upstairs to sleep as soon as the door was locked.
After sleeping until four or five in the afternoon, Lin Wei was awake, but her eyelids were still a little bit hard to open, and her body was too lazy to move, so she continued to lie on the bed until Mingming called her and said she wanted to go out to play.
I have to say that Lin Wei felt a little envious when she looked at Mingming’s spirited appearance.
Although she didn’t want to get up very much, it was almost dinner time. After struggling, she got up with difficulty, then placed a pot of noodles and lay down three eggs.
After eating and drinking, Lin Wei simply took a shower and went back to sleep.
Before going to bed, Lin Wei thought that although she was a little tired today, she should take a break and it should be fine tomorrow. As a result, the delay lasted for five or six days, and until Zong Shao returned from the sea, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
Looking at Lin Wei’s laziness and a tired look, Zong Shao just thought she was doing heavy work during her absence.
As a result, I found out after asking, it turned out that she just rushed to the sea a week ago, and the process did not exceed two hours.
After being silent for a while, Zong Shao didn’t directly say that Lin Wei was physically weak, but only suggested: “Why don’t you get up earlier in the future, and I’ll take you out for a run for two laps.”
Lin Wei’s eyes widened, she couldn’t believe it: “That’s how you comforted your overworked and unhappy wife? Do you want to sleep in the second bed tonight?”
Zong Shao: “…I was wrong.”
…
As Zong Shao returned from the sea, the durian from the supply and marketing cooperative also arrived.
Because she said she wanted to give Lin Wei a taste, after get off work at night, Zhao Li came directly with durian.
It was almost eight o’clock at that time, and Lin Wei had already taken a bath and went back upstairs to lie down, so she heard Zong Shao calling her, saying that she was still a little puzzled when someone was looking for her, and she hurried downstairs when she saw Zhao Li from the window.
When asked why Zhao Li came here, Lin Wei said, “You are too polite. Just tell me tomorrow, and you made a special trip here.”
Zhao Li said with a smile: “Other people in our supply and marketing agency can’t stand the smell of durian. I didn’t dare to open it in my office, so I was going to take the durian back. On the way, I remembered that I wanted to give you a taste, so I came over to save you time. Take a run.”
“Then I’ll go to the kitchen to find a knife, you go in the room and sit down.” After welcoming the person into the living room, Lin Wei took the key and went to the kitchen, found the kitchen knife from the top of the cabinet, and took it out after running through clean water.
It’s just that she just went in with a kitchen knife, and Zhao Li said, “Let’s drive it outside, otherwise it won’t smell good if we drive it in the house.”
Lin Wei knew that durian stinks, but she didn’t know what kind of odor it was, so she didn’t dare to take the risk when she thought about it, so she moved out on a bench and handed the knife to Zhao Li.
The durian is thorny and she won’t open it.
Zhao Li’s movements were very agile. After a while, she opened the durian. There were four petals in total, and there were quite a lot of pulp.
As the durian was opened, Lin Wei finally smelled the smell, but she didn’t think it was very smelly… As soon as the thought flashed, she heard a clear voice behind her: “Mom, what are you doing? It smells so bad!”
Lin Wei turned her head and saw that Mingming Ruirui had also come down.
Mingming covered his nose and mouth and stepped back as he spoke, while Rarity sniffed hard and asked in confusion, “Doesn’t it stink?”
Zhao Li was accustomed to the two brothers’ disparate attitudes, and explained with a smile, “Durian is like this. People who like it feel fragrant, and people who don’t like it feel stinky. Do you want to try it, Rarity?”
Rarity realizes that this is the smelly durian that Aunt Zhao had mentioned earlier, and looks up at her mother.
Lin Wei found golden durian flesh from Zhao Li’s hands and asked, “Do you want to eat it directly?”
“Yes, eat it directly.” Zhao Li said, took another piece of pulp and demonstrated to eat two bites.
Lin Wei picked up the pulp and bit it hard.
Soon, Lin Wei found that she didn’t need to exert too much force. The pulp of the durian was very soft. After biting it, it turned soft and blue with a slight pressure with her tongue. Moreover, the pulp did not have the odor she imagined, but it was sweeter than jackfruit and mango.
Seeing the expression on Lin Wei’s face, Zhao Li asked with a smile, “Is it delicious?”
“Well, it’s delicious,” Lin Wei nodded and turned to ask the two children, “Mingming Ruirui, do you want to eat?”
Clearly clutching her nose and shaking her head like a rattle, Rarity stepped out and said, “I want to take a bite.”
Because it was just a taste, Lin Wei brought the durian flesh she had bitten to Rarity’s mouth and let him take a bite. The next second, the little guy nodded his head: “Delicious!” He looked at the pulp in Lin Wei’s hand eagerly.
Lin Wei handed him the pulp and asked Mingming again, “Mingming, are you really not going to give it a try?”
Mingming shook his head firmly: “I don’t want it!” It was too stinky.
“Okay.” Lin Wei was a little disappointed, but she didn’t force it. She turned to Zhao Li and said, “How much is the durian in total? I’ll give you the money.”
“No.” Zhao Li waved, “I just brought you a taste.”
“That won’t work, there are only four petals in total,” Lin Wei said, remembering, and asking, “Does your family like to eat durian?”
Zhao Li asked suspiciously, “My daughter eats it, but no one else eats it. What’s wrong?”
“Is one piece of each of you enough? If it’s enough, we will share two. I will go to your supply and marketing cooperative to buy a durian tomorrow, or how about half?”
Although Zhao Li could eat two pieces of durian in one night, but too much is easy to get bored, so she agreed in one bite: “Yes.” Another piece of durian flesh was distributed to Lin Wei.
After dividing the durians, Zhao Li didn’t stay at Lin Wei’s house much, and went back with the durians in their shells.
Not long after Zhao Li left, Zong Shao also came out of the shower and stopped at the gate, frowning and asking, “She came to deliver durians?”
“Yes, do you want to eat it?” Lin Wei brought the durian to Zong Shao.
Zong Shao took two steps back and shook his head: “Don’t eat.”
It was the first time that Lin Wei saw him look like an enemy, so she wanted to tease him, took two steps forward and asked, “You really don’t want it? Durian is very delicious, especially sweet, Rarity, do you think so? ?”
Rarity, who was eating durian meat, took time out of her busy schedule and nodded, “Mmmm!”
But Mingming shouted loudly: “Dad, don’t believe what your mother and brother said, durian smells so bad!”
Zong Shao took two steps back and said, “Just eat.”
“Then you don’t have any good luck.” Lin Wei said with a smile, she finished eating the durian meat in her hands.
After eating the pulp, Lin Wei left a brown pit on her hand, which is said to be the seeds of durian, and so did Rarity.
In line with the idea that the seeds should not be wasted, Lin Wei threw the core of the durian tree directly to the side of the bride price, regardless of how the durian tree was planted.
Whether or not a fruit tree can grow is up to fate.
Rarity threw the pit into the ground like her mother, brushed her teeth, washed her face, and followed her mother upstairs to get ready to sleep.
But after going upstairs, the problem came. Obviously, the nose is pointed, and I always feel that my brother is also smelly after eating the smelly durian, and I don’t really want to sleep with him.
He didn’t really want to share a room with his mother, because his mother and brother also stink.
So the old mother who was disgusted by the old shígG Dujia asked: “Then who do you want to sleep with at night?”
Mingming didn’t hesitate: “Dad! I want to sleep with Daddy.”
Lin Wei turned to look at Zong Shao: “Then you bring Mingming to bed with you?”
Zong Shao: “…Okay.”
Although it was Zong Shao who Lin Wei took the initiative to ask, he also expressed hesitation appropriately, but Lin Wei made a small gesture and hummed inwardly: Oh, man!
She decided not only to eat durian tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow… For the next week, durian will be her bedtime fruit!
However, the ideal is very full, and the reality is very skinny. By the third day, the durians of the supply and marketing cooperatives were sold out, and the next purchase time is uncertain.
After two days of vegetarianism, Zong Shao, who made up his mind to eat meat tonight, was relieved to hear the news.
The past two days, if it wasn’t for Lin Wei who really likes to eat, he would want to write a letter to the supply and marketing agency and make a suggestion that they should not buy durian in the future.
It was hard to eat meat, and the next day was Sunday, so Zong Shao was a bit arrogant at night, and Lin Wei could not close his eyes until the middle of the night.
After sleeping until the next day, Lin Wei yawned and went downstairs, and saw that there were two more low cabinets in the living room.
When he was stunned, Zong Shao and Zhou Jianhai came in with the bookshelf. Seeing Lin Wei standing dumbfounded in the center of the living and dining room, Zong Shao asked, “Are you up?”
Lin Wei snorted softly, and slowly reacted: “The furniture has been laid so quickly? It’s only been more than half a month, right?”
Zong Shao said: “It has been done a long time ago. It has been painted and dried for several days.”
Suddenly, Lin Wei walked over to touch the smooth low cabinet and said, “As expected of a professional carpenter, work is fast.”
Zong Shao, an amateur carpenter: “…the daughter-in-law is right.”
