59 years after its opening, people are still in Nanluoguxiang.

It was the first time for Chen Hao and Chen Li to eat red stingray as seafood, and they both enjoyed the meal very much.

Because there are enough!

The entire stingray was cooked in the pot.

"Eat slowly, no one is going to snatch it from you."

Zhou Qing patted his second son, who habitually grabbed the delicious food first and then joined in the liquidation operation last.

"Brother, pot-lid fish is delicious. Let's continue fishing for it tomorrow."

Chen Hao chewed the brittle fish bones and enjoyed this delicacy very much.

Chen Feng brought a spoonful of fish soup to his grandfather.

"Red stingrays are rare in the Bohai Sea. It's pure luck to catch one."

"Yes, there are a lot of this kind of fish in Shanghai, but less in the north," said Mr. Zhou.

"Grandpa, you forgot that our village caught it last year."

Zhou Fubo interrupted, "Cousin, last year our village caught a pot-lid fish, but I heard it was sold to the city and exchanged for several kilograms of grain, right?"

"Yes, I saw it!"

Zhou Dinghai was also very happy. They used to eat prawns and seafood often, especially when the commune was just established.

I eat rice and seafood every day.

At that time, every family lived a happy life.

But since last year, everyone has been living a hard life.

Chen Feng sighed inwardly.

Zhou Jing only now felt that something was wrong. He knew about the fishing rod at home.

"Xiao Feng, how did you catch such a big fish?"

Chen Feng made the action of hooking, swinging the rod, and retracting the rod.

“Just like that, the fish came up.”

"Yes, that's right!" Chen Hao said loudly, afraid that everyone didn't know that he also contributed. "I also helped pull the fishing line."

"Cousin, what did you catch?" Zhou Dinghai asked while biting a prawn.

Chen Hao hesitated and said, "I caught several fish that looked like knives. My brother said that this kind of fish is not delicious, so he fed them to Lai Fu."

"Knife fish is still delicious." Zhou Fubo said.

"It just has a lot of thorns." Zhou Dinghai added.

"The fish with too many bones is not tasty." Chen Hao said, "Sister, you can't eat fish with bones, right?"

He looked at the little girl.

The little girl was eating happily. When she heard his words, she looked up into his eyes, full of confusion.

'? ? ? '

Then he lowered his head and continued eating.

I basically didn't eat any of the porridge and only ate the fish meat.

Several of them were happily eating and talking.

A few adults were also chatting on the side.

Chen Feng mainly listened with his ears to understand the customs and practices of the times.

Compared with many places in the inland, Zhoujiagou is still very good.

Although all the rice was handed over and most of the fish caught were taken away by the commune, the villagers often went to the sea to hunt, and the fishermen secretly poached at night, but they pretended not to see anything.

The commune knows about these things, but doesn’t care. Otherwise, you’d better be careful when walking at night.

Fishermen are not farmers, and beating them with sticks at night is the lightest punishment.

Of course, working overtime fishing at night does have certain risks, and secondly it will seriously affect the next day's operations.

"Uncle, I'll go pick up seafood when the tide goes out at night." Chen Feng interrupted after listening.

"No, you stay at home and watch over them." Zhou Jing immediately objected.

Chen Feng held the chopsticks and pointed at the fish soup.

"Uncle, you see, I can easily catch any fish that you can't catch."

"Like picking up good stuff at low tide, it all depends on luck."

"I'm so lucky, wouldn't it be a shame if I don't pick it up?"

"The tide recedes very late." Zhou Jing still disagreed.

Chen Feng smiled and said, "I went to Beihai Park at midnight last night and picked up a dozen wild duck eggs."

Make a circle with your fingers.

"I saw such small duck eggs at a glance. In just half an hour, I picked up fifteen."

"Brother, it turns out that you picked up the duck eggs. I thought they were laid by a green duck." Chen Hao said with sudden enlightenment.

He has a deep memory of tea eggs because he rarely eats them.

In the past, when we had eggs, we made egg custard and shared a little with my older brother and younger sister. It was impossible for each of them to have two.

Zhou Jing looked at Chen Jianjun.

Chen Jianjun nodded and said, "Let him go. They won't go. You, Xiaofeng and I will go together."

After dinner, Chen Feng went to Zhou Fubo’s bed to sleep.

The Zhou family still keeps Zhou Qing's room, so Chen Jianjun went there to rest first.

Several children are playing games together.

At about 11: in the evening, Chen Feng heard a noise outside and quickly opened his eyes.

Chen Hao, Zhou Fubo and Zhou Dinghai were sleeping on the bed.

Without waking them up, I got up quietly.

After opening the door and waiting for a while, Zhou Jing and Chen Jinjun came out.

"You didn't sleep?" Zhou Jing asked.

"I fell asleep and woke up again." Chen Feng replied.

Chen Jianjun lit the small kerosene lamp, which contained kerosene he had brought specially.

Chen Feng didn't know, but he knew that fishermen often went to the beach in the middle of the night to pick up seafood at low tide.

There was a bright kerosene lamp, which was completely different from a lantern.

"You take it."

Chen Feng did not take it, but picked up a fish bucket, a shovel and Zhou Fubo's fishing net, and said, "Dad, my eyesight is very good. I can see more than ten meters away. You guys take it."

Chen Jianjun had no choice but to hold the lamp himself.

Zhou Jing distributed three water hyacinths to them.

Zhou Jing walked in front, leading the way and telling them what to pay attention to when picking up things.

"Remember, don't enter the water. Even though the tide is out, a big wave may come in the next moment. A disobedient teenager in the village was swept away by the wave in June this year and his whereabouts are still unknown."

"Ah."

Chen Feng listened to Zhou Jing's teachings very carefully.

"If you see a group of people squatting in one place, go over and join them. Don't be shy. That must be a treasure land with abundant harvests. At this time, whoever is quick with hands and eyes will get a bigger harvest."

Zhou Jing was talking about the unwritten experience of going to the sea.

The beach is public, not private, so if there are treasures, everyone can pick them up.

Of course, you can pick up things, but you can’t steal them.

Otherwise, if you offend the public, you may be easily beaten up.

Going to the beach is never an easy task.

Especially when going to the beach after the tide goes out at midnight, accidents are very likely to happen due to the lack of lighting.

If you are not careful, your eyes are attracted by the catch, you don't notice that you have walked into a puddle, and you don't notice the sound of the surging tide, you may get into trouble and fall into a deep puddle and be swept away by the waves.

In addition, some marine organisms are highly poisonous.

"Hey, Zhou Jing, what a great thing, a kerosene lamp."

Seeing the bright glass light ahead, several fishermen from Zhoujiagou quickly caught up and nodded after seeing Chen Jianjun and his son.

An old fisherman said enviously: "It looks like you're going to have a good catch today."

The light of a kerosene lamp can be adjusted. If you are willing to spend more oil, it can be several times brighter than a lantern.

Chen Feng and his group came out quite late, and there were already many people on the beach holding lanterns searching.

The best time to go fishing is during the three days after the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, when there are usually high tides.

The sea water receded far and fast, leaving the largest area of ​​the beach. At this time, the slower-running snails and shells appeared one after another.

Coincidentally, today is September 9th, which is August 28th in the lunar calendar.

In a few days, it will be the first day of the ninth lunar month.
