Going back to the old days of hunting at sea

Chapter 749 It’s better to work in the village
"Don't ever call me dad. This is too high a generation. It will shorten your life!"

Chen Hui said quickly.

Wrap yourself in a bath towel, take dry pants and clothes and go to the side to change.

"What you think is beautiful!"

Chen Xiaoqiao cursed loudly and poured the contents of the net bag into his bucket.

Considering these "harvests from the sea", he decided not to argue with Chen Hui.

"Uncle Xiaoqiao, Uncle Guo Biao has several chickens at home."

"When you go back later, go by and ask Aunt Hongxia to pick a good one and kill it tomorrow morning."

"I'm going to make some chicken soup tomorrow morning. I'll go over and tell her how to make it."

Chen Hui put on his clothes and came out with wet pants and a bath towel.

Chen Xiaoqiao heard from Chen Kaiming that he knew what kind of guests were coming to Chen Hui's house.

He nodded and said, "I understand."

"Go over there as soon as you get home and drop off your stuff. Don't forget!"

Chen Hui emphasized it again.

Put all the seafood in one bucket.

Take another empty bucket and fill it with sea water to take back.

Wait for the sea water to settle for a while.

Pour the top layer of seawater without the sand into the tank.

Plug in the oxygenator and raise crabs and shrimps.

"Brother Chen Hui, this shrimp is so big! It looks so pretty too."

"It looks familiar. Have you caught it before?"

An Wenjing was working on the washing machine.

He asked while looking at the shrimps in the tank.

"I caught a female when I went out to sea before, and gave it to Uncle Shuqing."

As Chen Hui spoke, he threw the bath towel and towel into the washing machine.

I took another dry towel and went to take a shower.

When I came out of the shower, the washing machine had already finished one cycle.

An Wenjing is transferring clothes from the washing tub to the spinner.

As he was doing it, he said with emotion: "It's great to have a washing machine. We now wash clothes at night. We haven't been to the river for a long time!"

When she first bought the washing machine, she was often reluctant to use it.

Later, after I got used to it, I became more and more dependent on it.

"It's a pity that the electricity in the village can't be used, otherwise I would like to buy a lot of things."

"What about refrigerators, rice cookers, hair dryers, and televisions?"

As Chen Hui spoke, he hung the towel he used to dry his hair aside.

Let An Wenjing take a bath.

He is responsible for adding water to the washing tub and then transferring clothes from the spin tub.

After rinsing with clean water, put it in the dehydration tank to spin dry again.

By the time An Wenjing finished washing up, Chen Hui had already hung the clothes outside the small door and returned to the house with an empty wash basin.

"Brother Chen Hui, you're so quick! I was just thinking about coming out to dry the clothes!"

An Wenjing didn't find any clothes in the washing machine and was about to go find Chen Hui.

"The clothes are hung up, go to bed!"

Chen Hui put the basin away, took An Wenjing's hand with one hand, and touched her belly with the other hand.

Feeling a little confused, I touched it again, "Why is there still no difference?!"

"Got it! My pants are noticeably tighter than before recently."

"I feel like my belly hasn't gotten bigger, it's my waist that's gotten thicker."

An Wenjing said this, reaching out and touching both sides of her waist.

I didn't feel any extra meat.

"Let me make you a few new pairs of pants, the kind with looser rubber bands and more space left," Chen Hui suggested.

"Let's wait two months. The pants I have now are still fine."

"I think it's fine to do winter."

The two returned to the room chatting about the child.

They imagined together what they would do after having a child. An Wenjing didn't respond, so Chen Hui looked closer and found that she had fallen asleep.

He pulled up the quilt to cover her, then turned to the other side and soon fell into a deep sleep.

When he woke up, there was an empty seat next to him.

Looking at the time on the watch, An Wenjing had already arrived at Dasha Village Primary School.

"It's better to work in the village. I'll have enough time to go out later."

Chen Hui talked to himself and put the watch on his wrist.

I just sat up and stretched when I heard someone shouting downstairs.

"Who is it? It's so early."

Chen Hui walked outside and opened the window in confusion.

Wang Zijian saw the window was open, smiled and waved, "Comrade Chen Hui, good morning!"

"Comrade Zijian, why are you here?"

Chen Hui was a little confused. He closed the window and went downstairs to open the door.

"I'm going to town to do some work today, and I came by to see if there's anything I can do for you."

Wang Zijian said with a smile and walked in without any hesitation.

After taking a look at Chen Hui's house, he said blankly, "It looks like nothing has been prepared?"

"Don't worry, I have everything ready."

"There is one very important point. Do you know how many people are coming today?"

Chen Hui didn't expect him to come today.

I was wondering how many people I should prepare.

Wang Zijian looked at Chen Hui in surprise, then showed annoyance and slapped his head twice.

"Oops! Sorry, sorry! Five! Five people!"

"The last time I called your village, they said you were not there."

"I thought I'd call you later, and then I forgot about it. Luckily I came here today."

Wang Zijian said repeatedly with a smile on his face.

"It's okay. Everyone is careless sometimes."

"Fortunately, there was no delay in the end, so it wasn't a big problem."

Seeing how embarrassed he was, Chen Hui didn't know what to say.

I picked up the kettle and shook it, only to find that there was no hot water in it.

"No need to make tea, I'm here to help, not a guest." Wang Zijian hurriedly stepped forward and said.

"Don't worry, I've already made arrangements."

"That's right. I have to go to the county town to get something first, and then I have to go to Dasha Village. I won't entertain you."

Chen Hui put down the thermos and took the motorcycle key in his hand.

"Okay, then you go ahead and do your work. I'll be leaving first!"

"Comrade Chen Hui, goodbye!"

Wang Zijian felt that not only did he fail to help, but he also seemed to be delaying things.

After a few polite words, he left quickly.

Chen Hui swung the car keys and went to Chen Guogang's house first.

Guo Hongxia was slaughtering a chicken at the doorstep. She saw Chen Hui coming from a distance and shouted, "Chen Hui, the chicken is almost killed."

"It seems that the message has been delivered. I was afraid that Uncle Xiaoqiao was unreliable, so I came here to take a look."

Chen Hui strode over and said with a smile.

"How do you stew this chicken? Are there any particular requirements?" Guo Hongxia asked.

"Don't want the chicken head, chicken neck, chicken butt, chicken feet, or chicken wing tips."

“Chop the remaining parts into small pieces, blanch them in red wine, and stew them in three or four bowls of water.”

Guo Hongxia is famous for her love of stewing chicken with homemade red wine.

After Chen Hui finished speaking, he was still a little worried that Guo Hongxia would follow her own habits.

He also emphasized:
"When blanching, use red wine to get rid of the fishy smell. When stewing, only add water and never add wine."

Guo Hongxia also knew what Chen Hui meant, so she smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll remember it well."

"Okay, then I'll go to the county town."

"You cook the chicken soup and bring it to my house."
