Going back to the old days of hunting at sea

Chapter 838: Should I really erect a monument for you?
Chen Hui and Wu Shuisheng got off the boat first and protected several female comrades off the fishing boat.

Then all the seafood on the fishing boat is taken off.

"Sister Yanhong, can I take this parrotfish back home for you first?" Chen Hui asked.

"I can send it back, but it's too big for me to handle."

"Can it be dealt with first?" Li Yanhong asked.

"Okay! I'll find someone to take care of it."

"Sister Xiu Lian, are you going to deal with the fish you caught together?" Chen Hui looked at everyone and asked.

"Mine!" Huang Xiu Lian nodded.

He Juanjuan picked up the bucket of fish and put it next to the water tank with a smile.

"Chen Hui, take mine and deal with it as well."

"Let's go do something else first."

Wang Xianyong pointed to the frame where he kept the fish and gave instructions.

He waved to Wang Xianzhi and Wu Shuisheng.

The three of them followed Wu Dahua together.

Chen Huihe and a few others took all the fish to be processed to Li Jianshe's stall.

"Uncle, you're not busy now, are you?" Chen Hui asked as he put down the water tank.

"Not busy, the fishing boats haven't come back yet."

"Why did you come back so early today? I saw you left late in the morning."

"Are you going to kill this fish?!"

Li Jianshe was huddled in a sheltered spot to bask in the sun.

He rubbed his hands, came over and asked with a smile.

"I took it because you are not busy. Please help me kill it and send it to the county town." Chen Hui said.

"Delivering goods to the county town is no problem. I have time in the afternoon."

“But your fish is so big, and it only costs two dollars, including the killing and giving it away as a gift,” said Li Jiankang.

Chen Hui nodded, took out three dollars and fifty cents and handed them to Li Jiankang, "Please give the rest to your uncle for a cigarette."

"No, let's keep this matter separate."

Li Jiankang felt a little embarrassed by him.

He held the money and tried to refuse it from Chen Hui for a long time, but finally accepted it when he could no longer refuse.

Chen Hui wrote down the addresses of Huang Xiulian, He Juanjuan and Wang Xianzhi's homes to him.

He took Li Jiankang to look at the sea fish to be processed one by one, and put them into the fish baskets on his stall.

It is also clearly arranged which basket corresponds to which address.

After the work of killing and delivering the fish was arranged, Chen Hui went back to Wu Shuisheng's house again.

Take the spare ribs and pork belly that I asked Chen Huihong to buy in the morning.

With a large barrel of seafood.

When they rode the motorcycle with An Wenjing back to the village, their car had already been parked in the open space at the entrance of the village.

"Wow!"

An Wenjing looked forward and couldn't help but exclaim.

After two days in Dasa Village, the rough cement surface of the village road has been completed.

"Brother Chen Hui, Master He has shown you the procedure, right?"

"Should we add a finer layer of cement? Then the road will be considered repaired."

Although it is still a semi-finished product, it looks much more advanced.

The winter sunshine shone on the flat village road, making An Wenjing very happy.

"There should be two more, if I remember correctly."

As Chen Hui responded, his attention was drawn to something else.

At the entrance to the village, a large stone slab base was erected at some point.

This base also looked like a semi-finished product. Chen Hui felt it looked familiar, but couldn't remember what it was.

"Brother Chen Hui, the monument! The monument!"

"Didn't the village chief say that he would erect a monument for you after the village road was repaired?"

An Wenjing immediately thought of it and said, pointing at the stone slab.

"'Erect a monument to leave a good reputation'! My dear daughter-in-law, the key words cannot be omitted!"

"You will be at a disadvantage in the exam if you do this!" Chen Hui didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Brother Chen Hui, the village chief once said that he would put your name first. Is that true?"

Seeing that the base was already there, An Wenjing couldn't help but get excited.

"No, just put it in the last corner." Chen Hui didn't expect that Chen Kaiming was really going to do this.

We are all from the same village, it’s a bit embarrassing to think about it.

"Don't even think about asking the village chief. Someone must have already made this."

An Wenjing patted Chen Hui on the shoulder.

Signaling him to move on.

"How did you know I wanted to ask the village chief?"

Chen Hui muttered unconvinced.

I parked the car in front of Lin Jiao's house and let An Wenjing go back to her parents' home to read.

"Brother Chen Hui, I'll go back and work with you. You can read the book at night." An Wenjing said.

"There are so many people here today, why do we need you to work?"

"The civil servant recruitment exam will be held in a few days. Whether our baby can become a second-generation official depends entirely on you."

"Time is tight and the task is heavy, just prepare well for the exam."

"Sister Xiulian and the others will also help. If we call Aunt Hongxia to join us, there will be enough people to do the work."

As Chen Hui spoke, he got out of the car and went into the store to buy some melon seeds and peanut candies.

I grabbed two big handfuls and gave them to An Wenyi.

"Brother-in-law, give me all this!?"

An Wenyi swallowed.

This amount made her afraid to take it for the time being.

"I'm not giving it to you for free. My brother-in-law has a mission."

"Two tasks, complete one for this pile." Chen Hui said.

This sounds reliable.

An Wenyi became happy and asked excitedly, "What's the mission?"

"Go to Aunt Hongxia's house and tell her that I have guests at home tonight and ask her to kill a chicken and send it over."

"Then you come back and read with your sister."

"These two tasks shouldn't be difficult to accomplish, right?" Chen Hui asked.

"It's a small matter. Leave it to me." An Wenyi said, put down his pen and ran out.

"Chen Hui, don't you have dozens of chickens at home?" Lin Jiao asked.

"Those are for Wenjing to eat during her confinement. Leave them all to her."

Chen Hui talked and laughed, then rode away on his bike with a few bags of tea and snacks.

The motorcycle turns right from the bridge.

An Wenyi ran out from Chen Guobiao's house on the left.

He ran a few steps, waved his hands and shouted loudly: "Brother-in-law! The first mission is completed!"

Then he happily ran back to the store, peeled a candy and put it in his mouth.

Ji Zhutang said, "Sister, go read a book. My brother-in-law asked me to supervise you."

"Go ahead, go ahead, don't chat with me here." Lin Jiao also waved her hand to let her go quickly.

"Now, everyone listens to Brother Chen Hui."

An Wenjing said this with a smile.

She touched her slightly bulging belly and took An Wenyi back to the house to read.

Riding a bike is still much slower than driving a car.

Chen Hui handed the key to Huang Xiulian and asked them to open the door and go in when they arrived.

When she returned home, Huang Xiu Lian even helped to boil water.

Seeing someone coming back, he quickly waved and called out, "Chen Hui, where is your teacup?"

"I know. I'll make some tea."

Chen Hui strode in, took out teacups from the kitchen and made tea for everyone.

"Here, the key."

He Juanjuan handed him the key.

Seeing Huang Wenqian craning her neck to look around since she entered the room, I followed her and looked around.

Puzzled, he asked, "Qianqian, are you looking for a swallow's nest?!"

"No, I just wanted to see if there were any spider webs." Huang Wenqian lied.

"Silly girl, Chen Hui's house was only built a few months ago, how could there be spider webs?"
