Chapter 218
“Mengmeng, how do you know?” Mrs. Feng heard her granddaughter’s words so accurately, and couldn’t help but be a little suspicious.
Mengmeng almost revealed her stuff. She stuck out her tongue and didn’t know how to answer. She told her and grandma to lie. She was unwilling and couldn’t tell the truth. She froze for a while.
It was Brother Rui who helped her out of the siege: “Grandma Feng, when did our village return from the sea without harvest? Mengmeng was thinking of picking some big fish and eating it with the whole family.”
Madam Feng looked at Mengmeng, who quickly nodded and said, “Yes, that’s what I thought.”
Madam Feng smiled with relief. She squeezed Mengmeng’s chubby hand and said, “You baby, if you want to eat big fish, you are too embarrassed to tell grandma, let’s go, grandma will take you to pick.”
She took Mengmeng to the head, and Brother Rui followed by her side. The three of them walked on the alley in the village. After passing by the beach, the afterglow of the setting sun slanted on them, dragging their shadows to the elders.
Old lady Feng squinted and looked at the sea. On the distant horizon, the sun had turned the color of duck yolk. It hung between the sunset and the sea, dyeing the shimmering water into countless pieces of gold.
In this beautiful sunshine, there is the shadow of a ship, which is gradually driving from the horizon. It is so small, as small as a sesame grain. If you don’t look carefully, it will be easily overlooked in the vast sea. it.
But when Madam Feng saw the ship, she laughed.
“It’s really been said by Mengmeng. The fishing team from our village is back. Let’s go faster and pick some big fish back later.”
The wharf is a little far from the village. When Mrs. Feng and her two babies arrived, the fishing boat had not yet docked, but many fishermen from the village had gathered on the wharf, including Mr. Feng and his daughter-in-law.
“Mom, why are you here?” The two of them came here to buy fresh seafood as soon as possible. After all, his family runs a seafood processing factory, and the seafood they need is not a small amount.
“Like you, I’m buying seafood.” Madam Feng replied casually, then stopped talking, and concentratedly waiting for the approach of the fishing boat.
Closer, closer, the ship is getting closer and closer to the dock, and the people on the dock are as small as ants compared to it.
The sailor standing on the deck dropped the anchor, and the people in the village saw it clearly, and the faces of those on board were smiling.
“What’s wrong?” The person on the pier asked expectantly, “Did you catch a lot of fish?”
“No, no, there are only nine fish.” The people on the boat jumped down from the top without waiting for the boat to stop, and said to the disappointed villagers: “Nine tuna! All big fish! Complete! Hahaha . . . sent it.”
The villagers were silent for a moment, and then they all burst into surprises: “What did you say? Is there really tuna? Was it caught by you?”
The crewman was very upset that others suspected him. He curled his lips and said proudly: “What am I lying to you for? You can see for yourself, there are nine, and they are all bluefin tuna.”
While talking, the captain of the boat also came out. He said with a loud voice, “We’re lucky this time. Lord Dragon sent us a trip of tuna. We caught eight fish in total. We will sell them for the money, everyone. have a share.”
The people in the village immediately noticed something was wrong. They pointed to the crew member and hurriedly asked, “Why are there eight, he just said it was nine?”
The captain of the boat glared at the quick-talking crew member and explained to the villagers, “We didn’t catch one, but it was the Turtle Prime Minister. Yes, that big turtle was specially given to the village chief’s daughter.”
He spotted Mengmeng in the crowd with sharp eyes, and pointed at her with a smile: “Oh, Mengmeng is here too, you wait, uncle asks someone to bring your fish out.”
The fish was very big, and the four crew members exerted great efforts to move it from the deck to the pier. Everyone looked at it, good guy, this fish has blue-black fins and a silver-white belly. Isn’t it the legendary bluefin tuna?
Wow, everyone was in a commotion and crowded to the front to see it.
“It’s really bluefin, oh hey, this kind of fish is precious, we’ve made a fortune this time.”
The fishing boats are bought by the cooperatives, and the fishes they catch also have a share of the cooperatives. One of the villagers counts as one, and everyone can get a bonus. Can they be unhappy with them?
Of course, some people began to doubt sourly: “Is such a big fish really sent by Prime Minister Turtle? His sixth uncle, you can’t help the family.”
The person who spoke was a chubby middle-aged woman. She was wearing a polyester printed dress, the folds around her waist were bulging, and she was pointing at the orchid finger, pointing at the fish at one time, and Mengmeng at the same time, and her eyes were also looking at the boat boss. , the meaning is obvious, that is, he suspects that he is hiding.
“Fuck your mother’s egg!” The boss of the boat ranks sixth in the clan, and the sixth uncle is talking about him. He can be the boss of the boat, and his temper is quite hot, and he exploded on the spot.
“Monkey’s family, keep your mouth shut. If I lie, my whole family will die. If you spread rumors, your whole family will die. Do you dare to do it?”
He was aggressive, and his nostrils that were tanned into charcoal gasped out, making the monkey daughter-in-law back several steps in fright.
The crew on the side also shouted angrily: “Boss really didn’t lie, this fish was sent by the Prime Minister Turtle, without the Prime Minister Turtle, we couldn’t even catch the fish, everyone saw it at the time, you said is not it?”
“That’s right, without the Sea Dragon King, I can’t even come back.” Among so many crew members, Feng Dazhuang was the loudest and the most angry.
He took a step forward and approached the monkey’s daughter-in-law, and said sarcastically, “Some people just don’t have enough energy, they just know that they are talking slander here, and there are so many fish behind, can’t you see it? Or just grab the doll and bully them? ?”
The villagers on the side also shouted: “Yeah, monkey daughter-in-law, it’s not ashamed of you to say that. What are the conditions of the village head’s family to deceive you for a fish? You look down on yourself too much.”
They shouted at the monkeys standing outside the crowd: “Monkey Monkey, come and take care of your daughter-in-law, don’t let her come out and be ashamed.”
The monkey is the fat woman’s man. Their two in-laws are interesting. One is fat and the other is thin. The monkey’s daughter-in-law is almost the size of two monkeys. They stand together like potatoes and bean sprouts.
Although the monkey is thin, the head of the family still has the momentum, and immediately taught his daughter-in-law: “It’s not ashamed, you, if you can’t speak, just say a few words less, everyone will make you offend.”
He succeeded in getting his daughter-in-law to shut his mouth, and quickly apologized to Mrs. Feng, saying, “My auntie, don’t have the same knowledge as this prodigal woman, her broken mouth doesn’t have any good words, you just treat her as a fart. .”
So many people helped to speak just now, which took away the opportunity for Mrs. Feng to speak. She glanced at the thin monkey lightly, and said lukewarmly, “Some words can’t be taken back, who knows what’s in her heart. Thought.”
Regarding her family’s reputation, Mrs. Feng couldn’t help but say something more: “Everyone heard it just now, this fish was given to my family by the sea turtle, and it can’t escape if it belongs to my family. It will become someone else’s home.”
Humph, no one is allowed to rob her cute things, and whoever robs her will stab her.
“I didn’t say anything…” The monkey’s daughter-in-law wanted to make a quibble, but was stopped by her man.
“Shut up, you still think people don’t lose enough, go home to me.” Monkey used to be poor, and he married this woman from outside. Both families are poor, and no one dislikes anyone. The conditions are better, this girl is still the same as before, and some of them can’t be on the table.
He is a native of the village. He doesn’t talk about work or getting dividends. Even when he does things at ordinary times, he is in the hands of Feng Yimin. When he is crazy, he dares to offend the village head. Don’t think that the village head is not the head. When it comes to things, keep people obedient.
Mengmeng’s attention was no longer on him. She squatted down and stroked the fish, pretending not to know, and said, “Is it for me?”
“It’s for you,” the captain of the boat laughed at her, “you don’t know, Mengmeng, that sea turtle pushed this fish and named it to give it to you. If we didn’t pick it up, it wouldn’t leave. Oh, and wow, those fish in the back were also brought by the sea turtle with the help of the Sea God.”
Everyone just heard that there was such a thing, and they were all surprised and asked: “What the **** is going on? Why did I hear Da Zhuang say that he is also in danger?”
“That’s right, what happened at that time was too thrilling.” The boss of the boat told the story, and it was vivid, and there was Feng Dazhuang beside him to help, and the villagers were startled for a while. The Shanghai **** appeared, and only recovered a small life.
Everyone was even more surprised about the turtles, and they all gathered around Mengmeng and said, “Oh, you are so kind to Mengmeng, Guicheng, such a precious fish, when people say it’s a gift, they will send it to you directly, why don’t we have it? Encountered such a good thing?”
They are so envious. People are really mad at people. Although they sell fish, they can also get dividends, but there is no complete fish that is comfortable. Even the taste of this fish, they have never tried it.
Sixi’s mother said, “Look at you, you always play with Mengmeng, and people know that you need to have a good relationship with Prime Minister Turtle. What’s the use of you?”
She scolded Si Xi on the forehead viciously, “You useless loser, I’m really mad at me, why should I give birth to you?”
Sixi hugged her head, avoided her mother, and replied in dissatisfaction: “I am a loser, so you are a loser, grandpa and grandmother gave birth to you, and you lost everything, what are they doing? To give birth to you?”
“You, you, you’re going to be mad at me, you.” Her mother was so choked by her words that she couldn’t speak.
Even the villagers around were laughing at her: “Hahaha, Sixi’s mother, don’t say that your family is Sixi, now in the new society, a girl is not a loser, she married a good family, and can help you post. To subsidize her mother’s family, why are you so cruel to her, be careful that she will marry off in the future, and will ignore you again.”
With the old Feng family as a role model, the villagers are also very fond of their daughters. In addition, Taoyuan Village has a better life, and even the daughters of their village have a high status. They can’t ask outsiders. , the villagers are more willing to marry their daughters to their villages and continue to live a good life.
Mengmeng watched the whole process beside her, and felt that Si Xixi was pitiful. Her mother said that to her, and Sixi complained to her before, but she didn’t quite believe it. Now she believes it, and Sixi must have a bad life in her home.
She walked over and grabbed Sixi, and whispered to her, “Come to my house later, we will eat tuna, regardless of whether it will be given to your brother or mother, we will eat it by ourselves, and they will die.”
