The big cod that Lu Ao caught was too big, and they might not be able to eat it in this small county.
Others realized it too, and looked at the big cod he caught, worrying, "I don't know if there is any fishmonger in the county who can eat this small cod."
Lu Ao didn't raise his head, "It's fine if we can't eat it, we consume it ourselves."
The most valuable part of this cod is the maw. Fresh fish cannot be sold, and the same is true for taking off the maw to make isinglass.
After a long time of collection, it can also appreciate in value.
The leftover fish meat is not too expensive. It is also good to take the fish meat and make it into fish balls as a coming-of-age gift for relatives and friends.
After thinking about it, everyone felt that what he said made sense.
Lin Gongshang was playing with his mobile phone and asked, "What are you going to do now? Aren't you planning to go back?"
"Send it to Moments first, and see if anyone in Moments wants it."
Lu Ao sells a lot of fish through Moments and auction groups. Now that he catches expensive fish, he will post them on Moments.
It's not too early or too late, no one replied for a while, Lu Ao was not in a hurry, put away his mobile phone in his pocket, went to the stern to start the engine, and went home with everyone.
They moved faster today, and it was less than six o'clock when they got back to shore.
Lu Ao was planning to sell fish with them, and turned on his phone to talk to Song Zhou, who would have thought that dozens of messages would "swipe" out when he turned on the phone, causing his phone to vibrate for a while.
Lin Qiyan turned his head curiously, "Is this someone asking you about codfish?"
"Yeah." Lu Ao brushed over the information with his fingers.
The person who sent him the most messages was Weng Qian. He was still sending messages to Lu Ao 2 minutes ago, and asked Lu Ao to reply to him when he saw the message.
Others were also asking Lu Ao about the cod he caught.
Lu Ao gave a brief reply to Weng Qian, and then briefly introduced the situation of the cod fish caught in the bidding group and the boat boss group.
The cod he caught died as soon as it was caught. Judging from the traces, it should have fought to death with other fish or something. The wound was very fresh and clean.
The people in the group were discussing how much this fish was worth. Lu Ao told them that the fish had not been sold. According to the usual price, the meat of this fish was about 100 catties, and the swim bladder was [-] to [-].
- the price is very kind
-Xiao Lu, you can sell the fish to me, I have some money, how about we make up a round number of [-] for a whole fish?Your fish is a dead fish when you catch it, it cannot be compared with a live fish, and the price is somewhat lower
- Brother Lu, don't listen to him, I want [-]
- Seventy-five thousand. I'm relatively close. It should be fresh when you ship it over.
- Xiaolu can sell for [-] to [-] locally. If it is shipped out, the price will be even higher. Do you still want to send it away for [-]?I pay [-]!
-Hey, how can you raise the price so much?Isn't it endless to lift like this?
The auction group was very lively for a while, and everyone had their own opinions.
Lu Ao didn't stop him either.
These people seem to be impulsive, but they are actually the most shrewd. As long as they can negotiate, they will not pay more than a penny.
On the contrary, the group that Lu Ao joined was more heroic.
- The cod that Xiaolu caught today is not bad!
- It's really good, and the omen is good. It's almost the Chinese New Year, and there will be a bumper harvest
- I want this cod, 18, I will send it to you, how about it?
- This price is usually okay, but it’s a bit low in the Chinese New Year. Why don’t you sell it to me?I offer 20
-Lao Luo, save face, otherwise, I will increase it to 25.The market price should be that much, if you are not in a hurry to use isinglass, please give me face
- What's the use of us giving you face? It depends on Lu Ao.Lu Ao, what do you think?
Lu Ao appeared in the group: I have friends who also want to buy this fish, let me see the price they offer
- well, that's it too.Then I will increase the price to 28, and I will not be able to pay more than this amount.
This price is not particularly expensive, but there is no room for leakage. Everyone is very face-saving and did not argue with him.
The highest price offered by the boat boss was 28.
The auction group was dawdling, but the [-] didn't come out.
There are also several people chatting with Lu Ao in private, wanting to play the emotional card, including Weng Qian.
Lu Ao didn't answer any of them. After replying respectively, he turned off his mobile phone and said to the Lingong merchants, "Go and sell the fish. I won't sell the fish for the time being."
"Looking at your appearance, I know that your fish will not worry about selling, so let's go. We must hurry up and sell the fish while the weather is still bright."
The Lingong merchants waved their hands, transferred the fish to the tricycle, and planned to go to the town to try their luck first.
If the fish shop in the town can't eat so much fish, they will go to the county to sell it.
But it shouldn't be a problem, they didn't catch any particularly expensive fish today, and now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, the sales of both meat and fish are particularly good.
Several people parted ways, and Lin Qiyan helped Lu Ao load the fish he caught today onto his tricycle, "This cod is so big, if you don't sell it quickly, will it break easily?"
"It's okay, it won't break. The large freezer that freezes goose feed at home can just be empty to freeze this fish."
Seeing that he knew it well, Lin Qiyan stopped mentioning it after mentioning it.
The two of them moved the large pile of fish back to Lu Ao's house. Song Zhou had already returned. Seeing that they caught so many fish today, he was a little surprised, "The harvest is so good today?"
"Luck." Lu Ao said seriously, "Maybe God wants to give us some money for the New Year."
Song Zhou laughed when he heard this.
Lin Qiyan helped move the fish in and then went home.
Song Zhou asked him to eat, and he quickly waved his hand and said that his grandma had already made it, and hurried back.
Lu Ao looked at his back, then at Song Zhou, "Why do I think he's a little afraid of you?"
"I don't know that. Hey, the bidding in your group has already reached 25."
Lu Ao also took a look, and the bidding of the local tyrants was slowly climbing.
"Don't worry about them, the highest bid of the boat boss next door is 28, see which one is higher."
Song Zhou smiled, "I guess with their way of slowly raising the price, it should be higher on their side."
"It probably won't be too high, let's see." Lu Ao said, "I caught a lot of fish today, see what you want to eat tonight, let's have some seafood tonight."
"A fried prawn in oil."
"Well, the prawns caught today are of good quality, quite a few of them are as long as the palm of your hand. How about another fried orchid crab, and then a steamed sea bass?"
"Okay, I'll help you."
The two of them worked hard to cook, and the bidding price in the auction still didn't stop, and it had been slowly climbing.
Lu Ao thought that the result would not come out until before going to bed.
Unexpectedly, when they finished eating and went to the group to watch, the dust had already settled.
The highest bidder was Weng Qian, who offered 36 yuan.
As soon as his price came out, everyone stopped robbing him. The main thing was that the fish Lu Ao was already dead when it was caught.
Everyone is rich, and they can buy any fish they want. Lu Ao's fish is not very competitive, and everyone is mainly greedy for the swim bladder in this fish's stomach.
There are quite a lot of fish maws on the market, and you can buy good-quality yellow-lipped fish maws for 36 yuan. Buying such a cod is not worth it.
When Lu Ao saw the result, he went to the group of the boss of the boat and said, everyone heard that a local tycoon directly spent 36 yuan to buy this fish, and felt a little regretful, but also happy for Lu Ao.
- This result is really good. It was very lucky to make such a fortune a year ago.
-Xiao Lu, when are you free during Chinese New Year? Come out for a drink?
- That's right, aren't you going to engage in some kind of ocean ranch?Come out and talk, and share your experience.
Everyone was very enthusiastic. Lu Ao thought about it and replied to them: If you want to drink with your family during the Chinese New Year, you will not be free until the third and fourth day of the new year.
- Hahahaha, it’s all the same, I’m only free after the third day of the Lunar New Year
- I am free on the fourth and fifth day of the Lunar New Year
- I am also on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year
- Otherwise, the group owner should make a statistic, then we will see which day the most people are free, and we will choose which day to come out for a drink
The group leader effervescently agreed.
Lu Ao saw that they were already discussing the matter of drinking during the Chinese New Year, so he quit the group and asked Weng Qian to confirm the matter of buying fish.
When Weng Qian saw that this fish was really photographed by himself, he was both happy and regretful: Lu Ao, your business is getting bigger and bigger, and I don’t have any special discounts from you anymore, please accept JPG
Seeing this sentence, Lu Ao thought for a while: I went out today and caught a lot of fish, what discount do you want, I will give you some more fish
Weng Qian immediately became happy: what fish did you catch?Let me see
Lu Ao: Black sea bream, white wax, sea bass...too many, miscellaneous.You tell me what kind of fish you want first, I'll see if I have it here
Weng Qian: Are there any eastern star spots?It’s Chinese New Year, I’ll make Dong Xingban to eat at home
Lu Ao: No, if you want, I can try to make a mouse spot for you
Weng Qian: Do you want to fight now?
Lu Ao: Yes
Weng Qian ate lemon: Fuck!Is that all right?Is the sea your farm?What kind of fish do you want to catch?
Lu Ao didn't bother to pay attention to his words: If you want, I will go out in the morning to try it out, and I will give it to you before the Chinese New Year.
Weng Qian: Yes, yes!It is best to type two more, we have a lot of family members, even if you give ten or eight, I will not dislike it
Lu Ao: You are beautiful!Just one, no more.Except for the table where you eat by yourself, you should go out and buy the fish to be used on other tables.
Weng Qian: Hee hee hee, I can buy it from you
Lu Ao: I don't fight too much.Not much to say, what do you do with the cod you bought?I express to you?
Weng Qian: I just took a look. The logistics is relatively slow now. It may take a day or two for you to deliver by express.It costs [-] to [-] yuan to send it directly by helicopter, which is not cost-effective.
Lu Ao: Then?
Weng Qian: How about this? You can help take out the fish maw and dry it, and the fish meat can be directly punched into fish balls, is that okay?Can you dry isinglass?
Lu Ao: Yes, it should be fine.I have never tried fish balls
Weng Qian: That’s okay, we also use a machine to make fish balls, you can find a machine to make fish balls, and it’s better to send them when they are frozen
Lu Ao: Then I will try first
The two communicated well, and Lu Ao went to the freezer to take out the big cod.
Song Zhou went to help along with him, and asked, "Let's do it now."
"Let's deal with it while it's still fresh."
Their fish is really too big, even after being frozen for several hours, it has not frozen hard, and now the fish is still elastic when taken out.
Lu Ao put the fish on the scale and weighed it. The fish weighed 93 catties.
He took a photo of the weight of the fish and sent it to Weng Qian.
During the previous transaction, neither of them thought of weighing it.
Lu Ao only estimated that it was about a hundred catties.
Weng Qian only saw that the fish was big enough. He probably had a judgment on the weight of the fish, and now the weight was just within his estimated range.
Seeing that Lu Ao was ready to handle the fish, Weng Qian exclaimed: Do you want to do it now?If there is no sunlight at night, can the swim bladder still be exposed to the sun?
Lu Ao: The north wind is strong, let it dry first, no problem
Lu Ao: I won’t tell you anymore, I’m going to start handling fish
After typing this sentence, Lu Ao stood in front of the fish and looked at the big fish, quite helpless.
In theory, he does know how to dry isinglass. In fact, he has never operated it once, and it is indeed a little difficult to do it now.
Seeing him holding a knife, Songzhou stood in front of the fish and gestured back and forth, and smiled, "I'll do it."
Lu Ao breathed a sigh of relief, and hastily passed the knife in his hand to Song Zhou.
Lu Ao didn't leave after handing over the knife, but squatted beside him, muttering, "The most important thing they value when buying this fish is the swim bladder in the belly of this fish, let's be careful."
Song Zhou glanced at him, "Worried about my ability with a knife?"
"Don't worry." Lu Ao quickly flattered, "I don't worry about anyone else in this world except you."
Song Zhou smiled, and slashed down with the knife, easily revealing the viscera in the fish's stomach.
Lu Ao hurried to get several clean basins to hold the fish viscera.
Except for roe and swim bladder, other internal organs are not needed, and they only filled two pots in total.
When the internal organs of the fish are taken out, the fishy smell is extremely strong.
Fat Dun smelled it, Shitou licked his nose, and sat obediently by the side to watch, looking at Lu Ao and Songzhou eagerly, hoping that the masters would give him something to eat.
Seeing it salivating, Lu Ao quickly pushed it, "You ate shrimp at night, you can't touch this one, stay away."
Chubby: "Wow"
Not only did its furry body not move away, but it got closer.
Lu Ao wanted to hug it.
"It's okay." Song Zhou looked up and said, "It doesn't dare to move around."
"Forget it." Lu Ao squatted next to the fat pier, "I'll ask him what to do with the fish roe later. Let's deal with the swim bladder first?"
"You or I?"
"Come here," Lu Ao was a little embarrassed, "I don't know this well."
Song Zhou smiled, and his slender fingers tore off the fascia on the surface of the swim bladder.
To dry fish maw, the raw materials are very particular. It is best to pick a large and thick swim bladder, then tear off the fascia and blood vessels on the surface, remove all sundries, and leave only the swim bladder to wash before drying.
Song Zhou cleaned up the swim bladder slowly, and under his treatment, the swim bladder soon became pure white without any debris on it.
Such a swim bladder can be dealt with.
Lu Ao found a round dustpan, carefully put the fish maw on the dustpan, and sent it to the roof to dry.
Their small building is not high, and some small animals usually visit it.
Lu Ao looked at the isinglass on the top of the building, and was a little worried, "Why don't I bring a cover over here, so as not to be harmed by birds or cats."
"No. Just warn them."
With that said, Song Zhou breathed out.
Lu Ao was standing next to Song Zhou, not hearing anything, but he could clearly feel that all the nearby creatures had been warned.
Even he himself didn't want to destroy the isinglass in front of him from the bottom of his heart.
Lu Ao's eyes lit up, "Isn't this skill too easy to use?"
"I teach you."
As soon as Song Zhou said this, Lu Ao recalled the time when he was learning how to make rain. At that time, he didn't touch the edge at all, and it was very difficult to learn this.
It was so difficult that when he heard that he was going to learn something from Song Zhou, he felt a little weak in his legs.
He coughed lightly, and talked about him from left to right, "It's fine with you, I don't want to learn this."
Song Zhou pinched the back of his neck, but didn't speak.
In the next few days, Lu Ao will be very busy.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and his New Year gifts haven't been sent out yet. If he doesn't send out all the New Year gifts before the 28th of the year, after the latest courier service stops, if he wants to send them again, he will have to wait until next year.
Because he promised to give Weng Qian the mouse banner, he had to go fishing in the sea area where he had seen the mouse banner before preparing for the annual gift. The fish balls were taken back, packed together, and sent to Weng Qian in a frozen package.
After all this work is over, it is already 27 years old.
Lu Ao's family has not yet prepared the new year's goods, and the hygiene at home has not been done. There are a lot of things inside and outside.
Song Zhou has shortened his working hours now, and only works about six hours a day, and spends the rest of the time with Lu Ao dealing with New Year's matters.
Seeing that Lu Ao was nervous, Song Zhou laughed at him, "It's just the two of us at home, we can do whatever we want, and there is no specific standard, so we don't have to hurry."
"That won't work! Anyway, it's our first year, so we should pay attention to it." Lu Ao took his hand and showed him the pictures on his phone, "Look at what kind of couplets we want to use, I think This pure brush calligraphy is good, and this bronzing one is also good, both of them are very grand."
Song Zhou compared them carefully, and said, "Choose the bronzing one. The pure brush calligraphy is not very good."
"I feel quite stylish, you look at the pen and snake—" Lu Ao was halfway through speaking, and suddenly reacted, staring at Song Zhou with a pair of eyes, and asked brightly: "I forgot to ask, you Can you write with a brush?"
Songzhou has lived for so many years, so a few brush characters are naturally not a problem. He can not only write brush characters, but also Chinese painting, and musical instruments. It's just that he was busy with work and didn't play often, and Lu Ao didn't know about it.
Song Zhou smiled and nodded.
Lu Ao immediately said: "Since you can write brush characters, then we don't need other people's characters, can you write?"
"What's wrong with that?"
"Then I'll go buy red paper and brushes tomorrow, do you have any special requirements?"
"No special requirements, don't be too busy. I still have a lot of writing brushes. Tomorrow, we will go to Xinluzhou and buy some new year's goods when we come back."
Lu Ao has been so busy the past few days that he forgot that they can still go to Xinluzhou for a stroll, his thoughts are almost limited to the town. Hearing what Songzhou said, he sighed lightly, "It's okay, then Let's go on a date."
"I see there is a ballet tour tomorrow, do you want to go?"
"go with!"
Putting aside the shortcomings of the parents, the feeling of simply shopping is particularly good.
In particular, Lu Ao and Song Zhou are not short of money. What they see depends on whether they like it or not, and they don't need to consider money factors, which leads Lu Ao to buy and buy all morning.
Songzhou will teleport, they have bought a lot of things and are too lazy to mention them, Songzhou will teleport back, put the things away first, and then teleport back to continue shopping.
For food, drink, play, and use, there are countless novel and exquisite things in Xinluzhou. After shopping for a day, Lu Ao changed all the things at home, such as lamps, stools, cabinets, and even It also includes TV, washing machine and so on.
The hard decoration of the home cannot be changed for the time being, but after the soft decoration is cleaned up, the atmosphere of the whole home will be different.
If it was said that this family was more inclined to the family of three where Lu Ao and his parents lived, then the decoration of this home is now more inclined to the family of two of Lu Ao and Songzhou.
Traces of Lu Ao's parents have always been there. Lu Ao kept their room very well. The facilities and furniture inside have basically remained the same, even the clothes worn by his parents are still there.
There are traces of two generations in one family at the same time, which looks particularly harmonious and has an atmosphere of inheritance.
Lu Ao didn't feel tired after walking around for a whole day, and he even dragged Song Zhou around in the evening.
Song Zhou didn't feel tired.
The next day, Song Zhou got up early to make breakfast, and wrote Spring Festival couplets in the yard after breakfast.
Lu Ao hadn't woken up yet. He was basking in the sun in the yard, his eyes narrowed, and his head dozed off bit by bit.
Fatty also didn't wake up, so he nestled at his feet.
There are two people and a dog in the yard, which is very warm.
After Song Zhou finished writing the Spring Festival couplets, he took them outside and posted them outside.
His handwriting is much more beautiful than those that Lu Ao saw on the Internet before. He is handsome without losing his character, majestic and coquettish.
Not to mention Lu Ao, even the Lin Gong merchant who came to give them rice cakes couldn't move when he saw this writing.
"This character was written by Song Zhou? He wrote it really well. He is worthy of being a cultural person."
Lu Ao was a little proud, "That is."
Lin Gongshang hit the snake with a stick, "Are you free in Songzhou? Write a few pictures for my family if you are free."
"I said, why are you so attentive, is your relationship a lie?"
Lin Gongshang grinned, "How can this be called falsehood? I want to feel the atmosphere of traditional culture and be influenced by it. Bless my unborn child to be a gentle and handsome cultural person in the future."
When he said that, Songzhou smiled and said, "It's okay, I still have paper and pen here, I'll write for you, how many pieces do you want?"
"Songzhou, you are so kind. It's probably the one outside the gate, the one outside the living room, and the other window grilles and blessing characters. Just look at it and write."
"What about the content?"
"I haven't read much, and I don't know what to write at this time. Anyway, you just read it, it's auspicious."
Song Zhou thought about it, then bowed his head and wrote him a picture.
It only took a few minutes to write the Spring Festival couplets. A few minutes later, Lin Gongshang returned home happily with Lu Ao's return gift and Spring Festival couplets.
Lu Ao's popularity in the village is actually very good, especially the old people who have been taken care of by him for so long, and they always miss him in their hearts.
Now that the children of the old people are back, the family bought a lot of goods for the New Year, and made a lot of food for the New Year's Eve. Remembering that Lu Ao and Songzhou are both men, the villagers often send them ready-made dishes and cakes .
In fact, the dishes and cakes that everyone made were similar, but every piece of food was a gift, and Lu Ao didn't refuse, and returned the gift with a smile.
After receiving the gift in return, the villagers looked at the Spring Festival couplets written by Songzhou, knowing that other people had asked for Spring Festival couplets from them, so they also tried to ask for it.
Song Zhou agreed with a good temper.
In the afternoon, all the people in Luwu Village used the Spring Festival couplets written by Song Zhou.
Red Spring Festival couplets and firecrackers can be seen everywhere in the village, and the joy of the New Year permeates the whole village.
Others realized it too, and looked at the big cod he caught, worrying, "I don't know if there is any fishmonger in the county who can eat this small cod."
Lu Ao didn't raise his head, "It's fine if we can't eat it, we consume it ourselves."
The most valuable part of this cod is the maw. Fresh fish cannot be sold, and the same is true for taking off the maw to make isinglass.
After a long time of collection, it can also appreciate in value.

Several people parted ways, and Lin Qiyan helped Lu Ao load the fish he caught today onto his tricycle, "This cod is so big, if you don't sell it quickly, will it break easily?"
"It's okay, it won't break. The large freezer that freezes goose feed at home can just be empty to freeze this fish."
Seeing that he knew it well, Lin Qiyan stopped mentioning it after mentioning it.

-Xiao Lu, when are you free during Chinese New Year? Come out for a drink?
- That's right, aren't you going to engage in some kind of ocean ranch?Come out and talk, and share your experience.
Everyone was very enthusiastic. Lu Ao thought about it and replied to them: If you want to drink with your family during the Chinese New Year, you will not be free until the third and fourth day of the new year.
- Hahahaha, it’s all the same, I’m only free after the third day of the Lunar New Year
- I am free on the fourth and fifth day of the Lunar New Year
- I am also on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year
- Otherwise, the group owner should make a statistic, then we will see which day the most people are free, and we will choose which day to come out for a drink
The group leader effervescently agreed.
Lu Ao saw that they were already discussing the matter of drinking during the Chinese New Year, so he quit the group and asked Weng Qian to confirm the matter of buying fish.
When Weng Qian saw that this fish was really photographed by himself, he was both happy and regretful: Lu Ao, your business is getting bigger and bigger, and I don’t have any special discounts from you anymore, please accept JPG
Seeing this sentence, Lu Ao thought for a while: I went out today and caught a lot of fish, what discount do you want, I will give you some more fish
Weng Qian immediately became happy: what fish did you catch?Let me see
Lu Ao: Black sea bream, white wax, sea bass...too many, miscellaneous.You tell me what kind of fish you want first, I'll see if I have it here
Weng Qian: Are there any eastern star spots?It’s Chinese New Year, I’ll make Dong Xingban to eat at home
Lu Ao: No, if you want, I can try to make a mouse spot for you
Weng Qian: Do you want to fight now?
Lu Ao: Yes
Weng Qian ate lemon: Fuck!Is that all right?Is the sea your farm?What kind of fish do you want to catch?
Lu Ao didn't bother to pay attention to his words: If you want, I will go out in the morning to try it out, and I will give it to you before the Chinese New Year.
Weng Qian: Yes, yes!It is best to type two more, we have a lot of family members, even if you give ten or eight, I will not dislike it
Lu Ao: You are beautiful!Just one, no more.Except for the table where you eat by yourself, you should go out and buy the fish to be used on other tables.
Weng Qian: Hee hee hee, I can buy it from you
Lu Ao: I don't fight too much.Not much to say, what do you do with the cod you bought?I express to you?
Weng Qian: I just took a look. The logistics is relatively slow now. It may take a day or two for you to deliver by express.It costs [-] to [-] yuan to send it directly by helicopter, which is not cost-effective.
Lu Ao: Then?
Weng Qian: How about this? You can help take out the fish maw and dry it, and the fish meat can be directly punched into fish balls, is that okay?Can you dry isinglass?
Lu Ao: Yes, it should be fine.I have never tried fish balls
Weng Qian: That’s okay, we also use a machine to make fish balls, you can find a machine to make fish balls, and it’s better to send them when they are frozen
Lu Ao: Then I will try first
The two communicated well, and Lu Ao went to the freezer to take out the big cod.
Song Zhou went to help along with him, and asked, "Let's do it now."
"Let's deal with it while it's still fresh."
Their fish is really too big, even after being frozen for several hours, it has not frozen hard, and now the fish is still elastic when taken out.
Lu Ao put the fish on the scale and weighed it. The fish weighed 93 catties.
He took a photo of the weight of the fish and sent it to Weng Qian.
During the previous transaction, neither of them thought of weighing it.
Lu Ao only estimated that it was about a hundred catties.
Weng Qian only saw that the fish was big enough. He probably had a judgment on the weight of the fish, and now the weight was just within his estimated range.
Seeing that Lu Ao was ready to handle the fish, Weng Qian exclaimed: Do you want to do it now?If there is no sunlight at night, can the swim bladder still be exposed to the sun?
Lu Ao: The north wind is strong, let it dry first, no problem
Lu Ao: I won’t tell you anymore, I’m going to start handling fish
After typing this sentence, Lu Ao stood in front of the fish and looked at the big fish, quite helpless.
In theory, he does know how to dry isinglass. In fact, he has never operated it once, and it is indeed a little difficult to do it now.
Seeing him holding a knife, Songzhou stood in front of the fish and gestured back and forth, and smiled, "I'll do it."
Lu Ao breathed a sigh of relief, and hastily passed the knife in his hand to Song Zhou.
Lu Ao didn't leave after handing over the knife, but squatted beside him, muttering, "The most important thing they value when buying this fish is the swim bladder in the belly of this fish, let's be careful."
Song Zhou glanced at him, "Worried about my ability with a knife?"
"Don't worry." Lu Ao quickly flattered, "I don't worry about anyone else in this world except you."
Song Zhou smiled, and slashed down with the knife, easily revealing the viscera in the fish's stomach.
Lu Ao hurried to get several clean basins to hold the fish viscera.
Except for roe and swim bladder, other internal organs are not needed, and they only filled two pots in total.
When the internal organs of the fish are taken out, the fishy smell is extremely strong.
Fat Dun smelled it, Shitou licked his nose, and sat obediently by the side to watch, looking at Lu Ao and Songzhou eagerly, hoping that the masters would give him something to eat.
Seeing it salivating, Lu Ao quickly pushed it, "You ate shrimp at night, you can't touch this one, stay away."
Chubby: "Wow"
Not only did its furry body not move away, but it got closer.
Lu Ao wanted to hug it.
"It's okay." Song Zhou looked up and said, "It doesn't dare to move around."
"Forget it." Lu Ao squatted next to the fat pier, "I'll ask him what to do with the fish roe later. Let's deal with the swim bladder first?"
"You or I?"
"Come here," Lu Ao was a little embarrassed, "I don't know this well."
Song Zhou smiled, and his slender fingers tore off the fascia on the surface of the swim bladder.
To dry fish maw, the raw materials are very particular. It is best to pick a large and thick swim bladder, then tear off the fascia and blood vessels on the surface, remove all sundries, and leave only the swim bladder to wash before drying.
Song Zhou cleaned up the swim bladder slowly, and under his treatment, the swim bladder soon became pure white without any debris on it.
Such a swim bladder can be dealt with.
Lu Ao found a round dustpan, carefully put the fish maw on the dustpan, and sent it to the roof to dry.
Their small building is not high, and some small animals usually visit it.
Lu Ao looked at the isinglass on the top of the building, and was a little worried, "Why don't I bring a cover over here, so as not to be harmed by birds or cats."
"No. Just warn them."
With that said, Song Zhou breathed out.
Lu Ao was standing next to Song Zhou, not hearing anything, but he could clearly feel that all the nearby creatures had been warned.
Even he himself didn't want to destroy the isinglass in front of him from the bottom of his heart.
Lu Ao's eyes lit up, "Isn't this skill too easy to use?"
"I teach you."
As soon as Song Zhou said this, Lu Ao recalled the time when he was learning how to make rain. At that time, he didn't touch the edge at all, and it was very difficult to learn this.
It was so difficult that when he heard that he was going to learn something from Song Zhou, he felt a little weak in his legs.
He coughed lightly, and talked about him from left to right, "It's fine with you, I don't want to learn this."
Song Zhou pinched the back of his neck, but didn't speak.
In the next few days, Lu Ao will be very busy.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and his New Year gifts haven't been sent out yet. If he doesn't send out all the New Year gifts before the 28th of the year, after the latest courier service stops, if he wants to send them again, he will have to wait until next year.
Because he promised to give Weng Qian the mouse banner, he had to go fishing in the sea area where he had seen the mouse banner before preparing for the annual gift. The fish balls were taken back, packed together, and sent to Weng Qian in a frozen package.
After all this work is over, it is already 27 years old.
Lu Ao's family has not yet prepared the new year's goods, and the hygiene at home has not been done. There are a lot of things inside and outside.
Song Zhou has shortened his working hours now, and only works about six hours a day, and spends the rest of the time with Lu Ao dealing with New Year's matters.
Seeing that Lu Ao was nervous, Song Zhou laughed at him, "It's just the two of us at home, we can do whatever we want, and there is no specific standard, so we don't have to hurry."
"That won't work! Anyway, it's our first year, so we should pay attention to it." Lu Ao took his hand and showed him the pictures on his phone, "Look at what kind of couplets we want to use, I think This pure brush calligraphy is good, and this bronzing one is also good, both of them are very grand."
Song Zhou compared them carefully, and said, "Choose the bronzing one. The pure brush calligraphy is not very good."
"I feel quite stylish, you look at the pen and snake—" Lu Ao was halfway through speaking, and suddenly reacted, staring at Song Zhou with a pair of eyes, and asked brightly: "I forgot to ask, you Can you write with a brush?"
Songzhou has lived for so many years, so a few brush characters are naturally not a problem. He can not only write brush characters, but also Chinese painting, and musical instruments. It's just that he was busy with work and didn't play often, and Lu Ao didn't know about it.
Song Zhou smiled and nodded.
Lu Ao immediately said: "Since you can write brush characters, then we don't need other people's characters, can you write?"
"What's wrong with that?"
"Then I'll go buy red paper and brushes tomorrow, do you have any special requirements?"
"No special requirements, don't be too busy. I still have a lot of writing brushes. Tomorrow, we will go to Xinluzhou and buy some new year's goods when we come back."
Lu Ao has been so busy the past few days that he forgot that they can still go to Xinluzhou for a stroll, his thoughts are almost limited to the town. Hearing what Songzhou said, he sighed lightly, "It's okay, then Let's go on a date."
"I see there is a ballet tour tomorrow, do you want to go?"
"go with!"
Putting aside the shortcomings of the parents, the feeling of simply shopping is particularly good.
In particular, Lu Ao and Song Zhou are not short of money. What they see depends on whether they like it or not, and they don't need to consider money factors, which leads Lu Ao to buy and buy all morning.
Songzhou will teleport, they have bought a lot of things and are too lazy to mention them, Songzhou will teleport back, put the things away first, and then teleport back to continue shopping.
For food, drink, play, and use, there are countless novel and exquisite things in Xinluzhou. After shopping for a day, Lu Ao changed all the things at home, such as lamps, stools, cabinets, and even It also includes TV, washing machine and so on.
The hard decoration of the home cannot be changed for the time being, but after the soft decoration is cleaned up, the atmosphere of the whole home will be different.
If it was said that this family was more inclined to the family of three where Lu Ao and his parents lived, then the decoration of this home is now more inclined to the family of two of Lu Ao and Songzhou.
Traces of Lu Ao's parents have always been there. Lu Ao kept their room very well. The facilities and furniture inside have basically remained the same, even the clothes worn by his parents are still there.
There are traces of two generations in one family at the same time, which looks particularly harmonious and has an atmosphere of inheritance.
Lu Ao didn't feel tired after walking around for a whole day, and he even dragged Song Zhou around in the evening.
Song Zhou didn't feel tired.
The next day, Song Zhou got up early to make breakfast, and wrote Spring Festival couplets in the yard after breakfast.
Lu Ao hadn't woken up yet. He was basking in the sun in the yard, his eyes narrowed, and his head dozed off bit by bit.
Fatty also didn't wake up, so he nestled at his feet.
There are two people and a dog in the yard, which is very warm.
After Song Zhou finished writing the Spring Festival couplets, he took them outside and posted them outside.
His handwriting is much more beautiful than those that Lu Ao saw on the Internet before. He is handsome without losing his character, majestic and coquettish.
Not to mention Lu Ao, even the Lin Gong merchant who came to give them rice cakes couldn't move when he saw this writing.
"This character was written by Song Zhou? He wrote it really well. He is worthy of being a cultural person."
Lu Ao was a little proud, "That is."
Lin Gongshang hit the snake with a stick, "Are you free in Songzhou? Write a few pictures for my family if you are free."
"I said, why are you so attentive, is your relationship a lie?"
Lin Gongshang grinned, "How can this be called falsehood? I want to feel the atmosphere of traditional culture and be influenced by it. Bless my unborn child to be a gentle and handsome cultural person in the future."
When he said that, Songzhou smiled and said, "It's okay, I still have paper and pen here, I'll write for you, how many pieces do you want?"
"Songzhou, you are so kind. It's probably the one outside the gate, the one outside the living room, and the other window grilles and blessing characters. Just look at it and write."
"What about the content?"
"I haven't read much, and I don't know what to write at this time. Anyway, you just read it, it's auspicious."
Song Zhou thought about it, then bowed his head and wrote him a picture.
It only took a few minutes to write the Spring Festival couplets. A few minutes later, Lin Gongshang returned home happily with Lu Ao's return gift and Spring Festival couplets.
Lu Ao's popularity in the village is actually very good, especially the old people who have been taken care of by him for so long, and they always miss him in their hearts.
Now that the children of the old people are back, the family bought a lot of goods for the New Year, and made a lot of food for the New Year's Eve. Remembering that Lu Ao and Songzhou are both men, the villagers often send them ready-made dishes and cakes .
In fact, the dishes and cakes that everyone made were similar, but every piece of food was a gift, and Lu Ao didn't refuse, and returned the gift with a smile.
After receiving the gift in return, the villagers looked at the Spring Festival couplets written by Songzhou, knowing that other people had asked for Spring Festival couplets from them, so they also tried to ask for it.
Song Zhou agreed with a good temper.
In the afternoon, all the people in Luwu Village used the Spring Festival couplets written by Song Zhou.
Red Spring Festival couplets and firecrackers can be seen everywhere in the village, and the joy of the New Year permeates the whole village.
