242: hope
Open the door again and hand over the basket, "You are here to celebrate, and it's time for you to leave."
Xu Yaozong felt bitter in his heart. He really liked Cui'e, but the old mother in the family did not like her because the other party was unable to give birth.
Over the past year, Xu Yaozong and his mother have always been very cold because of his affairs with Cui'e. Maybe his mother knew that he was resentful, but instead restrained his previous temper.
But his marriage has ended and no matter how restrained he is, he cannot turn back.
"Then you should be careful when you are alone at home." Xu Yaozong said reluctantly.
Yu Cui'e nodded coldly, "There is a defense center across the street, I won't be able to do anything."
After saying that, he closed the door in front of Xu Yaozong.
The two have divorced, and Yu Cui'e is really hurt by the mother and son. Although things happen to be in her husband's house occasionally, she is not as sad as before.
Now she has a job, and the money she earns every month is enough for her living expenses and the remaining ones.
She had gone back to my parents' home before, but my mother loved her a little, but her father refused to let him in.
In addition, there is a younger brother and sister in the family, and my sister-in-law who is separated from each other can't even catch the other's eyes.
I couldn't help but go back to find someone to dislike him. During the Chinese New Year, Yu Cui'e was alone.
On the stone platform, wash the meat you want to make at noon and prepare to stir-fry two dishes. Anyway, I will go back to the express station to work on the sixth day of the day, and drink hot rice wine in the evening.
"Sister Cui'e." Just as he was about to go to the kitchen to put the pot, he heard a cheerful voice outside.
Hearing this familiar voice, Yu Cui'e walked out to open the door with a smile, and then invited someone in.
"Why did Shan Xing come here?"
Liu Shanxing is her neighbor, and lives behind her. Sometimes she would stand in the back window and chat with her. Both of them worked at the express station, but they were not in the same store.
"I went out and bought two packs of cold skin and brought you a bowl." Liu Shanxing handed a big sea bowl she brought with her, "I have to rush back to cook."
"Why do you want to go there? Let Xiaohu run errands for you." Yu Cui'e quickly poured out the cold skin, grabbed a handful of chestnut candy in the bowl and counted it as a gift for her.
"I think that boy is like a skinny monkey. He didn't deliver anything else and threw the bowl to me." Liu Shanxing picked up a piece of chestnut candy and threw it into her mouth, "Okay, I should go back too."
"Oh, slow down on the road." Yu Cui'e sent the person away, closed the door again, and returned to the kitchen to cook.
At noon, there is a pork and cabbage, a spinach and egg flower soup, and now there is a plate of cold skin. There is a set of chopped dried chili peppers in the cold skin. After you come back, you can add garlic, soy sauce, vinegar and so on to make it yourself. This one sells very well in Beijing.
It is not expensive and tastes refreshing and enjoyable. Adults and children like it.
Some people can make it themselves, but it is troublesome to make it, so it is really better to buy it and eat it.
A fat white steamed bun, three dishes, and a lunch is full of heart.
As for the chicken and soy sauce sent by Xu Yaozong, you can cook it at night. Potatoes are placed in the chicken, and the potatoes are soaked in the flavor of chicken soup. It is absolutely unwilling to let go. It tastes delicious and can swallow your tongue.
When I think of my mother-in-law's family, I have to ask my mother-in-law for any meals I cook every day.
Unless Xu Yaozong wants to eat some kind of dish, her mother-in-law will ask her to make it. If she cooks too much in private, she will definitely be told by her mother-in-law for several days and said that she will not live.
Compared to making a living under the other party, the current life is what she wants most.
Yu Cui'e is not opposed to getting married. If she meets someone who is honest and able to live a life, she will naturally remarry, but now she has not met a suitable one.
After dinner, she cleaned the kitchen cleanly, then brought a small basket of fried melon seeds to the next door, and sat together to chat with her sister-in-law next door.
There is a widow living next door to her. Her son is now twelve years old. Her husband died of illness many years ago. Her parents-in-law lost her only son and had no idea of living. Her mother-in-law hit her head and her father-in-law hanged her with a belt.
In Yu Cui'e's opinion, the two old men had a grandson under their knees, so why did they seek death?
At least there is hope.
But she was not the two old men who had lost their sons and could not understand each other's thoughts.
Although Qianhe County, which is near the sea in Shengjing, is still in full swing on the docks.
At this time, several large fishing boats were coming from far to near, and hundreds of people around the dock were staring at each other.
"The county had a notice from the government office that it was not allowed to go into the sea to fish in the four months from May to the end of August."
"Why is this?"
"It is said that it is a fish in the sea. You must take advantage of this period of time and you are not allowed to go into the sea."
"This is pretty good, otherwise I won't be able to live this life in the future."
"It's good, but what can I do in those four months?"
"Find some other work to do, and fishing at sea all year round is not a good thing. It's good to spend a few months at home with the elderly and children."
The crowd was chatting, and several fishing boats also approached the dock. After the stop, many people went to several fishing boats and began to unload the goods.
Seeing the fish and shrimps jumping in the wooden box, everyone had an indelible smile on their faces.
The fish caught are currently sent to the capital. Although it takes a lot of time on the road, the price after sending it is also high, so they make money no matter what.
Of course, local people can also eat seafood, and there are a lot of fish and shrimp left behind, which can still satisfy the local people's cravings.
The number of fishing boats is limited now, and the official shipyard is stepping up the construction of fishing boats. If there are more fishing boats, they will rush to other sea areas. In a few years, the people of Dazhou will not have to worry about eating fish and shrimps.
Furthermore, some people have conducted experiments on the breeding of freshwater fish, and the taste of fish of different water species is naturally different.
Just like spicy fish made from freshwater fish, many people are very happy about it.
Some women pushed several wooden boxes to the other side and began sorting them inside.
When the good ones are put together, the ones that are slightly worse are another box, and the worst is to stay in the local area.
The best ones should be delivered to the imperial city, the second ones should be delivered to Chang'an City, and the worst ones can be sold to local fishmongers.
All the income here belongs to Qianhe County. Of course, they also have their own rewards. The salary for working here is not low. Even if it is harder, many people want to come here to find work.
The county magistrate said that there are too few fishing boats nowadays. When there are too many fishing boats in the future, they will sell the fishing boats to the people and let them catch fish by themselves. At that time, the government will only collect taxes and silver, and the rest will be theirs.
Of course, most ordinary people don’t have this idea. After all, they can’t afford to spend money on the price of a fishing boat, so they still have to hire a ship owner.
