Rebirth of a fishing village: starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Chapter 9 Zhao Dahai strives to achieve vegetable freedom

"grandmother!"

"Drink of water!"

"calm down."

Zhao Dahai poured a bowl of water.

"The sea."

"Why do Sun Minghua and Dong Li dare to occupy our family's land? It's just that something happened to your father and mother and they left, and our family lost its backbone."

Zhong Cuihua sat on a low stool, holding her knees with her hands.

Zhao Dahai felt a pain in his heart.

Grandma doesn’t know that Sun Minghua and Dong Li have taken over their land?

How can this be?

The land is right behind the house!

Why not say a word?

My parents are gone, and I am a bastard, idle and stealing every day, unable to support my family. Sun Minghua and Dong Li were able to do such a thing, and they were prepared to quarrel or even fight, so they could only pretend not to know. If nothing happened, who would make money to support her grandson? Grandma Zhong Cuihua considered the matter carefully before swallowing her anger.

"grandmother."

"From now on, no one can bully us."

"In a few years, I will marry you a good granddaughter-in-law and give you some promising great-grandchildren. She will be very popular."

"The days will get better and better, and it will be prosperous."

Zhao Dahai reached out and wiped away the muddy tears welling up from the corners of Zhong Cuihua's eyes. The past two years must have been very difficult, and things like bullshit were unavoidable. However, everything is in the past. return.

The sun sets over the western mountains.

Zhao Dahai put down his hoe and turned over all the less than an acre of land. When he walked into the yard, he smelled the smell of rice, and his saliva almost flowed out. Grandma Zhong Cuihua had already cooked the rice. Put it on the small table in the yard, wash your hands, sit down and eat big mouthfuls. I started to work early in the morning, and I just ate some food at noon. Take a bite.

"grandmother!"

"you eat!"

Zhao Dahai picked up a piece of meat and put it into grandma Zhong Cuihua's bowl.

"hehe!"

"I sit at home and weave nets. It doesn't take any effort. I don't need to eat meat. As I get older, eating this stuff will make it greasy."

Zhong Cuihua shook her head and put the meat back on the plate.

Zhao Dahai knew that in the final analysis, he earned less. The family didn't have much money. If he earned more, there would be no such thing as saving food.

After Zhao Dahai had a meal, he took a rest. The moon rose, big and round. He had nothing to do. It was still early, so he simply turned around and went to the house. He dug the ground during the day, and it was not over, with clods of grass , you have to smash them all, and pull out all the grass, leaves, roots and so on. Otherwise, when planting vegetables, the grass will grow taller and faster than the vegetables.

"What the hell!"

"What the hell!"

"This kid has changed his gender?"

"Where's the one who started playing around with the ground?"

Sun Minghua stood by the window where Zhong Cuihua smashed the glass during the day, and looked at Zhao Dahai who was busy in the moonlight not far away. When I was young, I was so cowardly that I lost face and became a laughing stock.

"What's the use of talking about it now?"

"You can't retreat during the day."

"Let's fight. This land belongs to our family!"

Dong Li was holding a big bowl and eating while talking.

"snort!"

"Eat! I know how to eat all day long! Like a pig!"

"The land in the village. Which piece of land belongs to which family? I have seen it for several lifetimes. Who doesn't know it? If not, the village chief won't know?"

"Just a field ridge?"

"That's also the ridge of Zhao Dahai's family!"

"The path between his property and ours does not belong to Zhao Dahai, but it also does not belong to ours."

"We occupied the land, but others didn't know? Zhao Dahai didn't say anything. Others just pretended not to know."

"Once a commotion breaks out and Zhao Dahai opens his mouth, who dares to say anything?"

"fight?"

"Zhao Dahai has wolf-like eyes."

"The bastard is lawless. He can be ruthless. Even if you can beat him, do you dare to hit him? If you really hurt him, can you still kill him if he lives directly in our house?"

Sun Minghua shook his head. He really didn't dare to fight.

"Then what should we do?"

Dong Li shuddered when she thought of the hoe that was less than half a meter away from her during the day. Zhao Dahai wasn't trying to scare her, she was really ruthless. If she rushed faster, she would definitely fall on her forehead.

"This kid is not a good boy."

"If you can't afford to offend, you can only hide. Walk around."

Sun Minghua gritted his teeth.

what to do?

What else can I do?

Can only hide.

The moon is in the middle of the sky.

Hanging like a silver platter.

Zhao Dahai took advantage of the bright moonlight to smash the soil dug out during the day, and pulled out all the grass roots. Beads of sweat, the size of soybeans, kept falling from his forehead. He was tired, but he was very solid. .

Zhao Dahai was busy working until almost twelve o'clock at night, and went home to take a shower and sleep. However, at a little after five o'clock in the morning, the rooster woke up after a few times of crowing.

"grandmother!"

"What are you doing up so early?"

Zhao Dahai walked into the kitchen, where Zhong Cuihua was cooking porridge.

"hehe!"

"You're getting older. How much sleep can you get?"

"Get up and cook some porridge. It will save you some trouble."

"Grandma is not too old to move."

Zhong Cuihua smiled, Zhao Dahai seemed to have changed in the past few days, his life was comfortable, he had hope, he was in a good mood, he didn't sleep for three days and three nights without getting tired.

"OK!"

"Then I'll go work for a while first."

Zhao Dahai carried a hoe to the back of the house. The ground was plowed yesterday, and the grass roots and other things were pulled out in pieces last night. He dug ditches and raised ridges. He divided the whole piece of land into six small pieces. He kneaded them carefully with his hands again. I picked out all the grass roots and everything. After finishing this work, I went home to have breakfast. After eating, I took the seeds I bought when I went to town to sell crab tiger fish two days ago, cabbage, radish, cucumber, beans and other common items. We have everything to eat, so start sowing seeds. Sprinkle green vegetables densely in a small area of ​​the ground. Seedlings will sprout before transplanting. Dig small holes half a finger deep for melons and beans. Throw two or three seeds into each hole and then fill it. Cover with soil.

3pm.

The sun began to set in the west.

Zhao Dahai walked to the edge of the ground and sat down. He was so tired that he wanted to lie down directly. After a while, he regained some strength. He picked up the kettle and poured a bowl of cold water. He drank heavily while looking at the ground that had been busy for two days. , a little proud, this is the fruit of my own labor, which is really good, but more importantly, I am looking forward to it. In another month, I will be able to start eating the vegetables and fruits I grew.

Zhao Dahai didn't rest for too long. He couldn't eat rice with bacon every day. It was still early. He went home and said hello to his grandma Zhong Cuihua. He carried a basket, placed a big bowl, took a knife, and walked to the beach. , I found a few rocks that were half a person's height. This place was full of oysters, but they were not very big, usually only as big as two fingers, but they were absolutely delicious, but they took time and effort.

Zhao Dahai found a raw oyster, pierced it with a knife through the tightly closed oyster mouth, twisted it a little bit hard, opened the shell, scraped with the tip of the knife, a piece of oyster meat the size of a thumb fell into the bowl, and immediately looked for the next one Oysters.

Night falls.

It suddenly became dark at the beach, and the sea breeze blew over with a hint of coolness.

Zhao Dahai shook his head, it was already getting dark, he couldn't see clearly, he couldn't continue prying, he looked at the basket, it was almost half a bowl, enough for himself and grandma Zhong Cuihua to eat tonight, and we'll get something else tomorrow.
