Chapter 158
Seeing this, Shi Lin, Shi Yujun and the second aunt hurried to help Shi Zhenye.
Shi Lin was a half-baked Chinese medicine practitioner in his previous life. He didn’t learn much medical skills, but he did learn some massage techniques.
He stretched out his hand to help Shi Zhenye massage and knead a few times, and Shi Zhenye’s face finally looked much better.
“Okay, Linzi, I don’t feel so much pain anymore.”
Shi Zhenye waved his hands, supported his lower back with one hand, and sighed,
“I’m old. When I was young, I could lift a sack in one hand. Now I twist my body when I pull a sack. I’m really useless. You two young people should pull it. I’ll be fine after sitting for a while.”
Shi Lin told him not to do any physical work recently, and go back to find Lao Shi or Yu Leshan to get some medicinal wine to apply.
After giving the instructions, he and Shi Yujun went to pull the fish and load it together.
Shi Yujun grabbed a sack with both hands and pulled it up. It took a lot of effort to drag the sack ashore.
He couldn’t help but complain in a low voice:
“Fuck, this sack is full of water, it must be almost 200 kilograms.”
“My father also said that when he was young, he held a sack in each hand. The old man has started to brag when he is old!”
However, just after he finished complaining, he turned around and saw Shi Lin lifting two sacks from the river, one in each hand.
“……This is fucking, the old man is not bragging? Am I too weak?!”
Shi Yujun doubted himself a little.
He tried again, but it really didn’t work.
It took a lot of effort for him to pull up a sack in the river from the shore.
If he pulled one sack in each hand, he couldn’t pull it at all.
In just a few strokes, the two of them pulled all seven sacks in the river ashore and loaded them onto the truck.
After loading, Shi Lin looked at the fishing nets still in the river and said to his second uncle:
“Second uncle, you’d better not go down to the river again. Wait for Jun to come back and collect the remaining nets.”
Shi Zhenye nodded, “Okay, I won’t go down to the river. We’ll just watch here. Many people were watching here just now. I’m afraid that the fish will be caught by someone.”
“Okay.”
Shi Lin nodded and drove the tricycle to take Shi Yujun and the fish to Liu Baoquan in Shanghe Village.
It took less than ten minutes for the tricycle to arrive at the gate of Liu Baoquan’s house.
Having come here many times, Shi Lin didn’t need Liu Baoquan to greet him and drove the tricycle directly into his yard.
At this moment, Liu Baoquan also heard the sound of the tricycle and walked out of the house.
Seeing that it was Shi Lin coming, Liu Baoquan was stunned.
He came over and asked:
“Brother, you just left, did you forget to take anything?”
Shi Lin laughed and pointed to the back compartment,
“Nothing was left behind, Brother Quan, didn’t you just tell me that you wanted fish? I’ll get it for you as soon as I get back! Look, the fish is here!”
“Huh?! So fast?!” Liu Baoquan was stunned when he heard this.
Calculating the time, it has been less than half an hour since Shi Lin drove the ox cart back from here.
This half an hour also includes the time he spent on the road, how is this possible?
Could it be that the fish gathered in advance and waited for him to go to the river to catch them? !
Liu Baoquan walked to the back, looked at the seven sacks in the compartment, and then opened the sacks to see,
Wow, all fresh live fish!
There are many kinds of grass carp, carp, crucian carp, mandarin fish, etc., and the sizes are also different.
Liu Baoquan gave Shi Lin a thumbs up and said:
“Brother, you are really awesome! Awesome! I just told you to catch fish and you delivered it to me right after! With your efficiency, even airplanes can’t catch up with you!”
“Haha, Brother Quan, I was joking. These fish were caught by my brother Jun and his friends, and I just helped deliver the goods.”
Shi Lin laughed and briefly explained the situation, asking his brother Jun to calculate the money with Liu Baoquan.
Hearing this, Liu Baoquan still thanked Shi Lin a few words,
Then he talked to Shi Yujun very familiarly about the price of fish, and asked people to come over to sort the catch and prepare to weigh and calculate the money.
This time, Shi Yujun and his friends caught a lot of fish, and the types were also very diverse, mainly small fish, most of which were about half a catty.
In the end, the total was 387 catties, and the settlement price was 430 yuan, with an average price of less than one and a half yuan.
But this has made Shi Yujun very happy. He and his father worked hard all morning and earned this income. What else is there to be dissatisfied about?
His younger brother works more than 20 days a month in the forest farm, but he can’t get so much money!
After they settled the accounts, Shi Lin drove Shi Yujun back on a tricycle.
First sent Shi Yujun to the river, and then he went home by himself.
It is worth mentioning that the older generation did not listen to the advice at all. His second uncle had promised not to go down to the river.
But when they returned to the river, they saw his second uncle wearing only a pair of shorts, soaking in the river.She was happily catching fish in the house…
Back home.
Ye Meihui had packed her things.
Let Shilin have a meal first, and then they were ready to go to Shilin’s grandmother’s house.
This time, there were only three people going to his grandmother’s house, Ye Meihui, Shilin, and Xiao Pan’er who wanted to take a car.
At the same time, Xiao Pan’er also brought the bear cub, and Zidane also got on the car.
Three people and two small animals, took their things and set off.
Ye Meihui’s mother’s home is also in Liaoping County, but it is quite far away from Xigou Village.
One is almost in the east and the other is in the west. The straight-line distance is about 80 kilometers, and it takes more than two hours to drive a tricycle.
In this era when transportation is not very convenient, Ye Meihui often goes back once a year or even once every two years.
Shilin, Shi Yuye and others go even less often.
When he was young, Shilin would often go back to his grandmother’s house with his mother, but since he was a teenager, he didn’t often follow her.
Thinking about it, the last time he went to his grandmother’s house with his mother was probably three years ago.
More than two hours later.
The tricycle arrived at Hekou Village.
“Go over there, that’s the main road in the village. Go all the way to the end and you’ll reach your grandmother’s house.”
Entering the village, Ye Meihui pointed the way to Shi Lin happily.
Little Pan’er looked outside through the glass and asked her grandmother, “Grandma, did you live here before?”
The little guy was here for the first time and felt very curious about everything around him.
Ye Meihui nodded and smiled:
“Yes, your great-grandmother’s house is here, and your four uncles are all here. When we get to your great-grandmother’s house later, let them make flower rolls and pot-fried pork for you!”
“Great!” Little Pan’er said happily, and then she added, “Grandma, Little Bear and Marten also need to eat!”
“Haha, don’t worry. They will definitely not be hungry.” Ye Meihui laughed.
She was in a very good mood after returning to the familiar village.
“Yes, yes, that’s it. The one who is killing chickens in front is your aunt!”
Ye Meihui pointed to an independent yard in front and laughed,
“Haha, it seems that we came at the right time. There is chicken to eat! I brought some hazel mushrooms, which are perfect for stewing chicken!”
