Fisherwoman: After my divorce, I became rich by fishing at sea
Chapter 99 Going to town to save money
Boss Fu and Fu San also went to watch the fun. When they came back, Boss Fu remembered that there was so much money at home, so he discussed it with Fu San.
"No one is going out to sea tomorrow, can you lend me your tricycle?"
In the afternoon, Boss Fu tried the tricycle in front of Fu San's house. Isn't it easier than driving a tractor?
I learned it in no time.
Fu San really admired Fu Lao Da's courage. He just learned to ride a bike today and asked to borrow it to drive tomorrow.
"I have something to do tomorrow, and the tricycle would be useful."
It's not that he doesn't want to lend it. He wants to take Lin Qiuju to the town hospital for a check-up tomorrow. When he was delivering the goods before, he heard from others that prenatal check-ups are very important.
What a coincidence! Boss Fu was going to town.
"We're going to town tomorrow too. If your car can accommodate me, I won't have to squeeze into the shuttle bus."
Only then did Fu San understand why Boss Fu wanted the tricycle, and he asked him to come to him early tomorrow morning.
The tricycle is so big that it can easily carry so many baskets of fish, let alone a few people.
The two of them discussed it, and when Boss Fu returned home, he announced that the family would go to town tomorrow.
Ye Xiaocui was a little confused. Why didn't they just send the children to the town for a run? She and Fu Lao Da were so old, why did they have to go to the town?
Little did they know that Boss Fu had been a ghost for so many years in his previous life, and seeing how rapid modern discoveries were, he had already become a fashionable ghost.
Besides, although they are already grandparents, they are actually only in their forties.
"Dad, what are we going to town for?"
Although Fu Ming also wanted to go for a walk in the town, he always felt that his father was a little different from before.
Boss Fu coughed softly and lied uncomfortably, "I heard someone say a few days ago that you can take photos in town. It's just right for our family to go and take a family photo."
Taking a family photo? Fu Wan instantly understood Boss Fu's purpose. If time leaves no trace, memories will gradually fade away.
The best way to record the traces of time is through photos.
In the 1980s, photos had to be taken with bulky cameras, and the price of taking photos was very expensive.
It’s not as advanced as modern technology where you can just pick up a cell phone, take videos, and take photos and shoot whatever you want.
Ye Xiaocui was hesitant at first, thinking it was a waste of money. But when Boss Fu pulled her into the room and opened the iron box containing the money, the neatly stacked large-scale unity notes inside instantly put her concerns to rest.
Take a picture! It’s just a few cents a picture!
The whole family took eight or ten photos of him!
Since Ye Xiaocui agreed to go, the other members of the Fu family had no objection either.
Around five in the afternoon, when the sun was not so scorching, Lin Qiuju arrived at Fu's house carrying a few bags of fish.
Fu Wan and Ye Xiaocui were in the yard, one picking vegetables and the other washing them. Seeing Lin Qiuju approaching cautiously, Fu Wan hurried to meet her.
"Auntie, why are you carrying something?"
Lin Qiuju smiled and said, "Fu San told me that I don't have to cook tonight. I'm happy to have some free time. I still have some fish at home that I haven't sold yet, so I'll bring it over to add to the dishes."
Having said that, the fish in the bag are all grouper weighing two or three pounds, and it is obvious that they are not unsalable.
Ye Xiaocui treats Fu San as Fu Lao Da's biological brother, and likes Lin Qiuju, his younger sister-in-law, even more.
"Qiuju, how are you feeling lately?"
Counting the time, it has been almost three months since Lin Qiuju was born.
Lin Qiuju was thin to begin with, and now she was wearing loose clothes, so others couldn't tell that she was a pregnant woman unless they looked closely.
Lin Qiuju knew that Ye Xiaocui was concerned about her, so she told the truth.
"This child was quite fussy. He vomited everything he ate for the first two months, but he's been much better these past few days."
Otherwise, she couldn't even lift the fish and would feel like vomiting at the smell.
Fu Wan made a cup of malted milk for Lin Qiuju and brought over the octopus balls she had made in the afternoon.
There were also dried mangoes that Ye Xiaocui had dried a few days ago. Lin Qiuju sat on a bamboo chair beside them and looked at the things on the table.
"I'm here to deliver something. I'd like to trouble Awan to entertain me."
Fu Wan smiled and said, "Aunt, try the new food I made and see if it suits your taste."
The octopus balls are so delicious, and with the red tomato sauce on the side, they look particularly delicious.
Lin Qiuju picked up one with chopsticks and took a light bite. The aroma of green onion and octopus exploded in her mouth. It was sour and sweet because of the ketchup.
It was a taste she had never tasted before.
“This thing is quite fresh.”
Lin Qiuju ate two or three in a row, then ate two or three dried mangoes, and drank half a bowl of malted milk, feeling half full.
Seeing that Fu Wan and Ye Xiaocui were busy, she felt a little embarrassed.
"Sister-in-law, is there anything you want me to do?"
Ye Xiaocui was cleaning the fish and said without looking up, "Just sit and wait for dinner."
Okay, but Lin Qiuju was not someone who could sit still. Seeing that there was no place for her to help, she strolled back.
The table was full again for dinner that night. Fu Ming heard that Boss Fu had called Fu Liang and his mother and son, and the three families had a great time eating.
Fu Liang's mother, Aunt Jiang, looked at the people in the room and thought about the stack of money that Fu Liang should bring back today.
"Aliang, give the money to Aming later and ask him to save it for you."
Aunt Jiang also felt that it was not appropriate to keep so much money at home. As a woman, she was usually busy with farm work. If a thief broke into the house, it would be terrible.
Fu Liang nodded in agreement, and Fu Ming did not refuse. After all, it would save money for one family or two families.
Easy thing to do!
Fu San, on the other hand, thought that saving money made sense, and he planned to go back and save all the money he had earned recently, leaving some as a reserve for the family.
The next day, Ye Xiaocui got up early, prepared breakfast and urged the whole family to get up quickly.
Fu Ling knew last night that she was going to the town to play today, and she spent a long time before going to bed choosing what clothes to wear the next day.
In the end, she chose a floral dress made for her by Ye Xiaocui.
After a simple breakfast, the family reunited with Fu San and his wife.
Fu Liang gave the money and passbook to Fu Ming early in the morning, telling him not to forget to deposit it for him.
The sound of the tricycle starting attracted the attention of the villagers who were chatting under the big tree at the entrance of the village.
"Hey, what are the Fu family and Fu San and his wife doing?"
"Looks like they're going to town. The Fu family is dressed so neatly, just like city folk!"
"That's true, don't you see how much they've earned recently?"
Several villagers gossiped about the matter, and then marveled at Mr. Fu's luck.
Fu Sanlaizi was originally planning to go to someone else's dry toilet to poop, but he heard something when he passed by.
These days, the family has been eating steamed buns made of wild vegetables, without any oil or water. He even grimaces when he goes to the toilet.
Damn, it hurts so much.
If he was as lucky as Mr. Fu and caught so many fish, he wouldn't be unable to pay off his gambling debts.
Thinking of this, his eyes rolled again. If Boss Fu's family were gone, wouldn't there be no one at home? Wouldn't there be no one to look after their money?
