1983Fishing and Farming between Mountains and Seas

Chapter 183 More than
Liang Ziqiang's family was very adaptable in preparing meals. This time he had a large amount of hairtail fish, so he naturally kept dozens of them to take home.

It is enough to eat one fish on the same day, and the rest are all dried and made into dried hairtail. If there is no fresh fish to eat in a while, dried hairtail, dragon head fish and other dried fish are essential ingredients for fishermen to survive the winter.

Hairtail is good for the growth and development of the fetus and the brain, but it also has its disadvantages. You can't eat too much. Hairtail is high in calories, and eating too much may cause weight gain.

Chen Xiangbei was slim all her life in her previous life. Liang Ziqiang had never thought about what Chen Xiangbei would look like if she got fat now and lay in front of him.
Forget it, the style of painting is a bit inconsistent with the real Chen Xiangbei, so I don’t want to think about it anymore.

If she was just a little fatter than she is now, and her skin was fair, then it would not be bad. Who knows, she would feel a different kind of beauty after tasting it...

I originally wanted to give two cutlassfish to my mother and sister-in-law, but after a while, my father and eldest brother Liang Tiancheng also came back from the sea and brought back a few cutlassfish.

Although they did not encounter a large hairtail season, they did find sporadic small seasons on the sea and caught some hairtail.

At dinner time, the entire Liang family was filled with the smell of hairtail.

The difference is that the cooking methods are different. Steamed hairtail, braised hairtail...

What Chen Xiangbei made was hairtail fish stewed with cabbage.

In the evening, it was time for Chen Xiangbei to review her math lesson again, counting her savings...

Originally, they had saved up 2,800 yuan in the bottom of their box. Then that morning they went to the town to buy pork, pork liver, cooking oil, a large number of coal briquettes, diesel and the like, and spent more than 100 yuan, leaving them with more than 2,600 yuan.

During this period, I occasionally spent some money. After all, I had to buy everything from rice to vegetables. There were only two or three kinds of vegetables newly planted in the fields. Eating only those two would be monotonous and not nutritious enough.

Two thousand six hundred, plus the one thousand eleven I brought home these days, the money at the bottom of the box has reached three thousand seven hundred.

Of course, part of the 3,700 yuan will have to be spent soon. The two of them still haven't found thick winter clothes, and the fishing in the winter has been delayed until now. This will definitely cost a lot of money.

After counting the money, I crawled into the quilt. Fortunately, the quilt was new and thick enough.

Not only was Liang Ziqiang not feeling cold sleeping inside, he was actually getting hotter and hotter. Suddenly he realized that he had been careless again.

It is widely acknowledged that hairtail fish has a positive effect on men. It seems that there are many things in seafood that can stimulate men.

However, hairtail is different from abalone. Hairtail is similar to conger eel, which makes men feel the increase of calories.

According to Jiang Wenang's description, abalone has a therapeutic effect. Jiang Wenang himself is not strong enough, but he has been drinking abalone soup and gradually he has been nourished.

"What's wrong with you today?" Chen Xiangbei touched Liang Ziqiang and subconsciously retracted her hand.

"Don't you understand? It's been a long time since you helped me."

"No, it wasn't long ago last time..."

"You can't say it with your mouth, just feel it again, that's the most honest way!"

"Why are you so troublesome?"

"What's the trouble? It's just a matter of effort!"

"I weave webs during the day and knit sweaters for the little ones, so my hands get tired..."

"It's only a few bucks to weave a net. You can buy clothes for the children next time you go out. Just give your hands a good rest tomorrow. Don't weave a net or knit wool."

"Nothing else matters, only you are so urgent?"

Chen Xiangbei looked at him with a reproachful look, but still took action...

After Chen Xiangbei had done that to him, he really fell into a deep sleep. He slept so long that he didn't even notice the wind starting to blow in the middle of the night.

When he got up in the morning, the wind outside was still blowing, but it was not raining. He even went to the beach to take a look, and there were still some waves. Although he wanted to seize the precious opportunity of every day of the winter flood, it was obviously not suitable to go out to sea today, especially to the relatively remote place of Longjuling.

It's windy but not raining, so it doesn't prevent people from going out.

He immediately discussed with Chen Xiangbei and decided to go to the town to buy winter clothes since they couldn't go out to sea today.

If they delay day after day, they will both become cuckoos.

After breakfast, we set out together and arrived in town in the morning. There were still many things to do, but the first thing was definitely to go to the tailor's shop.

"You two, huh? Are you here to make clothes for the cold weather?"

The couple from the tailor shop recognized them at a glance and greeted them with a smile.

"Yes, make her two coats for cold weather, thicker and looser."

"I know. It's roomy so you can wear a sweater or something inside. That way you won't have to worry if the weather gets colder." The shop owner's wife responded immediately.

"Oh, and we also need to make some thin summer clothes. We can't make them in the same size as the last three sets. The summer clothes must be roomy this time so they can be worn until the baby is born."

Considering that the pregnancy period will last from this year's cold weather to tomorrow's hot weather, he thought it would be better to do both thick and thin ones.

"You're pregnant? Congratulations!" the shop owner's wife said happily, "I made wedding clothes for you a while ago, and now you're going to be parents!"

The last time I made three sets of clothes for Chen Xiangbei, each set cost twenty yuan including the workmanship and fabric.

This time the maternity clothes are made with a little more special workmanship, and I charged 22 yuan per set. This is thin.

Winter clothes are different. The fabric is thick, with two layers of lining and outer cloth, and a little cotton in the middle, so it costs fifty yuan for a complete set, including clothes and pants.

After thinking about it, it seemed not enough, so I bought two more sets of autumn clothes, to be worn in seasons that are neither too cold nor too hot, and also to be worn under thick clothes in winter.

Autumn and maternity clothes are the same as summer clothes, also twenty-two.

Two sets of winter clothes and winter pants together cost one hundred yuan, plus three sets of summer maternity clothes cost sixty-six yuan, and two sets of spring and autumn maternity clothes cost forty-four yuan.

All of Chen Xiangbei's clothes cost two hundred and ten yuan.

This time, Chen Xiangbei directly pulled Liang Ziqiang and asked him to measure the size and make winter clothes on the spot.

She had made three sets of thin clothes for him in this shop last time, so he only needed to make winter clothes.

Liang Ziqiang originally thought that he only needed one new set of winter clothes to wear out during the Chinese New Year, but Chen Xiangbei insisted that he make an extra set for him to change into.

So, it’s fifty yuan per set, and two sets are also one hundred yuan.

Clothes are a big expense these days, especially winter clothes made by a tailor. In a blink of an eye, three hundred and ten dollars was spent.

It will take longer to make the winter clothes this time, so they will have to pick them up next time they come to town.

After leaving the tailor shop, the two went to the health center located behind the town street.

I haven't been to the hospital since I became pregnant. Now that I'm in town, I'll go to the health center to check on the situation.

Liang Ziqiang planned to inquire at the town health center first, but if he wanted to give birth, he would have to find a way to go to the county hospital. It would be best to go to the county hospital for the next few rounds of prenatal checkups.
