Chapter 20 You are an embroidered pillow

Chapter 20 You are an embroidered pillow
Li Changle returned to his sons with a scoop net and pliers. The two little guys pointed at the white crabs in the basket and shouted, "Dad, Uncle Wei, look, we caught these big white crabs!"

"My son is so capable!" Li Changle praised with a smile.

Chen Yongwei also took it and said, "Amazing! You caught such a big white crab when it's so small!"

The two children smiled happily and said excitedly, "Dad, we want to look for it over there."

"We're not going." Li Changle pinched their sunburned faces and picked up the backpack. "Let's go, let's go and call your mother to go home and see your grandfather!"

"Oh oh!" The youngest son stretched out his hand and held his hand, "Dad, I want to tell Grandpa that you are really good at fishing, and you are not just an embroidered pillow that looks good but is useless."

Chen Yongwei laughed, "Brother, the embroidered pillow is also good, at least it looks good!"

"Go to hell!" Li Changle glared at him. He had never expected that he was so unbearable in his father's eyes. He blinked and thought to himself, "Your father is a late bloomer!"

"Hmm!" the child continued to ask, "Have you seen Lao Wai's father?"

"I didn't see it, what's wrong?"

"Laowai always brags to my brother that his father found big blue crabs. I want to compare ours with his!"

Li Xiaozhou still remembers that Lao Wai often boasted to his brother about his father's diligence and how his father made money by fishing every day.

Now that his father has become diligent and has bought so many great items, it's time to let Lao Wai know that their father is also very capable and better looking than his father.

"Don't worry, it must be the big one that Dad found." Li Changle said confidently.

……

Zhou Ruonan had been prying oysters for a long time and felt a little tired. Seeing that the bucket was almost full, he stood up and stretched his sore lower back a few times, and by the way, he looked at where his two sons and Li Changle were.
After looking around and not seeing anyone, he worriedly climbed up a large rock. When he stood on it, he saw the father and his two sons and Chen Yongwei walking across the rock and heading towards this side.

Seeing the two children's happy expressions, today's catch should be good. She remembered that in the past, her mother-in-law forced A Le to go fishing, but he was always cunning and perfunctory, which always made her mother-in-law very angry.

He has been here for more than two hours today and he hasn't complained of being tired. It seems like he really wants to change?
Zhou Ruonan felt relieved as she thought about this, and said to Sister Li in front of her: "Sister, do you want to go back?"

Mrs. Li turned her head and asked, "Have you dug it all?"

Zhou Ruonan walked under the rock, "It's almost full! How about you?"

"Mine is almost full too." Mrs. Li turned her head and looked around. "Has Ah Le left?"

Zhou Ruonan walked down the rock carrying a bucket and tools, "No, I brought Xiao Hai and the others here."
"Really? You used to work for a while and then leave, but this time you were so obedient that you worked for two or three hours?"

Mrs. Lai next to her also agreed, "Yes, every time before, I would hear your mother scolding me halfway through. This time, your mother was not here, and I thought Ah Le had already run away!"

"It's time to wake up. Uncle Tang's hospitalization will cost money, and Xiaohai will also go to elementary school. He is a grown man with hands and feet, and he can't rely on his wife and parents to support him for the rest of his life!"

"A Le saw that his father was injured, so he came to the market this morning to earn money to pay for the hospital fees. He is a bit lazy, but he can still take care of things at home." Zhou Ruonan said protectively.

She felt that no matter how bad Li Changle was, he was still the father of her child and her man. If there was something wrong with him, his family would say it was okay, but outsiders would say it was just to ruin his reputation.

Several women secretly curled their lips, thinking that Li Changle's laziness was also related to her. If their men were so lazy, they would have packed their bags and returned to their parents' home long ago. Even if they didn't return to their parents' home, they would have quarreled with him long ago. Unlike her, no matter how Li Changle made trouble, she had never heard her quarrel. She was always calm, as if she was so virtuous and deserved to be exhausted to death!

Zhou Ruonan said without even looking at them and packed her things. When she stood up, she saw her youngest son running towards her, calling her and gesturing happily with his arms open as he ran.

"Mother, my brother and I caught two small blue crabs and a large white crab, and my father found a large sea eel. The blue crab was this big, and its two claws were as thick as my wrists."

Seeing her happy younger son and her older son holding hands with Li Changle, Zhou Ruonan was also very happy. She took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his face. "Are you thirsty? Mother will give you some water."

The child nodded repeatedly, "I'm thirsty. My throat is about to smoke."

Zhou Ruonan looked at his wrists that were like bamboo poles, feeling a little sour in her heart. She smiled and unscrewed the army green kettle she brought with her, "You don't come back to drink water when you're thirsty. What if you get a heat stroke?"

"Mother!" Li Xiaohai let go of Li Changle and ran towards her, looking at her with sparkling eyes. "Dad is so awesome. The bucket is full, and he even caught a few big blue crabs and white crabs."

Zhou Ruonan looked at him with a smile, "Yeah! Drink some water quickly."

"Anan! (Sister-in-law)"

Zhou Ruonan nodded, "Awei is here too!"

"Hey!" Chen Yongwei put down the bucket with a silly smile and stood aside with a red face.

Li Changle put down the backpack, picked up the crabs from the basket and put them in the bucket. Mrs. Li came over and saw his catch. She picked one up in surprise and said, "Ah Le Shipping is really good. I haven't found such a big blue crab in a long time."

Then he looked at the bucket in front of Chen Yongwei and said, "Oh my! What a big conger eel! Ah Wei, you are so lucky!"

Chen Yongwei scratched his head and smiled innocently, "It's not me, it was my brother Ale who found it."

Mrs. Lai said to Zhou Ruonan with envy, "Teacher Zhou, your son A-Le is so lucky. That big crab can be sold for two or three yuan. We worked hard for half a day and only found some oysters and mussels. If we sell them all, we can only get a few dimes at most."

When several women saw the catch in the buckets and baskets, they felt jealous. They came to fish in the sea every day, but they were not as good as a second-rate guy. The cheapest seafood in his bucket could only be sold for a few dimes.

Mrs. Li looked at them and was secretly happy. "My parents-in-law and grandma said that Ah Le's hands have been red since he was a child, and he can always find great bargains every time he comes to Taohai. Ah Le, don't be too lazy in the future, and let Ah Nan relax a little."

"Meifang, it's because you're a novice. You can find better shipping routes when you go fishing. You won't get such a good catch next time." A woman said sourly.

Mrs. A Lai curled her lips, "Ah Le has been growing up by the sea since he was a child. He even has two children now, and he is still a novice. He is almost an old hand!"

"Whether Ah Le is a veteran or a novice, you need to ask Teacher Zhou to know!"

"Xiao Hai is already six years old, do you think he is a veteran or a novice?"

"Hahaha!" A group of women laughed at Zhou Ruonan whose ears turned red.

Sister Li suppressed her laughter and patted Sister Lai, "Dear sisters-in-law, there are children here, please pay attention to the impact!"
