　　————

 After the northeasterly wind.

 The sky on Dandan Island is clear, but the temperature has not gone up, but has dropped even lower.

 At night, the sea breeze blew.

 A person who is freezing has cold hands and feet.

But for Li Duoyu, who raises kelp, he naturally hopes that this winter will be as cold as possible, so that his kelp will grow as long as possible.

 Take advantage of the bright sun.

Everyone took out their winter beddings to dry them, and others also took the opportunity to dry them.

 Lao Li was lying on a rocking chair and basking in the sun.

 Chen Huiying is drying oysters.

Little Fatty held the clothes drying rack and kept patting the quilt.

Li Duoyu is sitting on the stone bar, holding a small notebook with a plastic cover and calculating the accounts of the past few days.

There are 13 people in total working with kelp seedlings.

  An average of 21 yuan per person;

 Give 70 yuan to my brother-in-law;

  Old dog Chen Wenchao 25 ​​yuan;

 Smoking money and drink money for the masters and workers of the kelp seedling transport ship, 15 yuan;

 The fuel fee for a diesel sampan is 17 yuan;

  Tractor freight is 15 yuan;

 The cost of lunch in this thirteen-day package: 55 yuan;

There is also a chubby little guy named Li Haoran who also made 6 yuan by picking up kelp seedlings on Saturdays and Sundays;

 Total: 476 yuan.

 Actually, there were two more sums of money that Li Duoyu didn't include in the statistics, namely his parents' wages and the money spent on paying respects.

 Li Duoyu had never given them this money.

 But my parents won’t accept anything they say.

In turn, he gave him a lesson, saying that he was too far-sighted and calculated too clearly, leaving Li Duoyu speechless.

 It was originally after the separation of the family.

Mom and dad don’t have much money left.

In recent years, we have been subsidizing them in various places, and there is no way there is any money left.

In addition, some time ago, in order to help him take care of the kelp rope, Lao Li spent money to buy a small sampan with an oar.

 Li Duoyu guessed.

His parents will most likely not be able to afford thirty yuan now.

Li Duoyu has also been a parent, and understands that this kind of dedication from parents is often subconscious and unconditional.

 They would rather eat pickles themselves, but also want to feed their children well, wear them well, and use them well so that they can live a prosperous life.

 But now that Li Duoyu has resumed his life, he naturally hopes that his parents will treat him better and lead a better life.

And Li Duoyu always felt that the reason why his father passed away so early in his previous life was most likely related to his eating habits.

They are so frugal that they often eat one dish for several meals. They always eat pickled vegetables, pickles, pickled bamboo shoots, and various salted fish and crabs.

These are foods with high nitrate and nitrite content. Long-term consumption will damage the esophagus and gastrointestinal mucosa.

Li Duoyu was thinking about how to get the money to his parents. Conventional methods were not possible, but there was a way he could try.

 Seeing everyone there, Li Duoyu shouted:

 “Is anyone here to play some mahjong?”

 After hearing this, everyone looked at Li Duoyu, and Lao Li sat up directly from the rocking chair.

 “You can play mahjong.”

Even Zhou Xiaoying turned her head with an expectant look on her face, but then she frowned and said, "But we don't have mahjong at home."

 “Wait a minute, I’ll buy it right away.”

 In this era when entertainment activities are extremely scarce, how can a home be without something like mahjong?

　　I didn’t wait for these people to refuse.

Li Duoyu had already mounted his Erba Dangang and ran towards the cooperative.

Mahjong is considered a luxury item in this era. A pair of mahjong with an ox bone surface and a bamboo back can be sold for almost 50 yuan in a cooperative.

 Li Duoyu happened to meet Wang Jinjun, the president of the cooperative, when he was buying mahjong at the cooperative.

 Because he was the most active in reporting, he was scolded a lot, but after getting rid of the illegal goods, the cooperative's business improved significantly.

During the settlement, Wang Jinjun took the initiative to greet him: "Duoyu, I want to ask you something. Do you know the leader who came to our village to seize goods some time ago?"

Li Duoyu frowned and replied.

"do not know."

Wang Jinjun didn't believe it and laughed twice: "Stop pretending, the captain secretly told me that your name was on the report list, but it was crossed out by the leaders."

Li Duoyu frowned, almost forgetting that Wang Jinjun's brother was the captain of Dandan Island, and he also had a younger brother who worked in an agency in Rongcheng.

His family is relatively powerful on Dandan Island. They often take advantage of many things on the island.

Li Duoyu hates Wang Jinjun very much. It should be said that the entire fishermen on Dandan Island hate him very much.

He has done a lot of trouble, and even harassed Zhou Xiaoying's parents.

“Maybe they made a mistake.” Li Duoyu chuckled, too lazy to have much interaction with Wang Jinjun.

After buying the mahjong, Lao Li wanted to call him a prodigal, but when the sound of mahjong started to sound, he was already sitting on the chair, and Zhou Xiaoying, who was pregnant, also occupied the spot.     “Ahem.”

Lao Li coughed twice and said to Chen Huiying, who was still drying the dried oysters: "Why don't you have any eyesight? One of the three is missing."

 “But I’m not very good at fighting.” Chen Huiying replied.

 “Serve it on the table first.”

 After the four people sat down, Li Duoyu suddenly said: "Today, let's play big, or play small."

After hearing this, Zhou Xiaoying said awkwardly: "Can you please stop paying me? I might be better than my mother."

“That won’t work. Playing mahjong without making money is no fun.”

Lao Li also thinks it makes sense. If you don't pay, everyone will just do it blindly, which is really meaningless. Besides, there are only people at the table, so the books are not all from the family's money.

Chen Huiying then said: "Otherwise, let's hit the smaller one and get one point."

 “Okay.” Zhou Xiaoying nodded.

Perhaps because of the novice halo, Zhou Xiaoying is very lucky and keeps touching herself.

 “As if he had touched himself.”

 “Touch oneself again.”

 “Grab gold.”

Zhou Xiaoying's novice aura seriously disrupted Li Duoyu's money-losing plan, forcing Li Duoyu to resort to ruthless moves. After reading the cards, he hit a big pie on the spot.

 “Just listening to the big cake is nonsense.” Lao Li shouted.

 Next.

Li Duoyu kept firing off cannons all the way.

 “Lost again.”

Zhou Xiaoying was very depressed: "Why do you keep firing? I haven't won in several rounds. You don't even feed me. I can't get any cards. You've heard so much, but you just don't give me any cards."

Li Duoyu pretended to be innocent over there.

 “My cards are bad.”

 “What can I do.”

Not long after, Li Yaoguo and Zhu Xiuhua came back from outside and saw that Li Duoyu and Zhang Xiaoying were so bad at poker and lost so much money.

 Second sister-in-law Zhu Xiuhua is also eager to try.

“Mom and dad, let me play with Yao Guo.”

 Lao Li looked at the change in his hand and realized that it was a bit exaggerated. In less than two hours, he actually won more than 20 yuan. Adding in Chen Huiying's money, it was almost 50 yuan.

 “Forget it, there’s no point in winning any more, I’ll leave it to you.”

 Lao Li reluctantly left the mahjong table.

But after Li Yaoguo and Zhu Xiuhua sat down, Li Duoyu's entire painting style suddenly changed and he instantly became a master.

After hearing the seven cards, the second sister-in-law thought she was sure of success, but as soon as she played a card, she heard Li Duoyu shout: "Sorry, Jinque."

 “Dephan, 60 times.”

 The second sister-in-law's eyes widened and she quickly checked Li Duoyu's cards, only to find that he had not cheated. He was really a golden bird.

The second sister-in-law, who did not believe in evil, thought that he was just lucky, but she didn't expect that Li Duoyu had touched himself again before he played a few games.

And Zhou Xiaoying was even more ruthless and went straight to Tianhu.

 Not even an hour after sitting down, Zhu Xiuhua lost more than 20 yuan.

　　When I was defeated, I didn’t dare to fight anymore, so I ran back to the room dejectedly.

　　She lost all the money she had earned from collecting kelp seedlings these days, and she was so angry that she shed tears.

After seeing Li Haoran return to the house, Zhu Xiuhua quickly asked: "Haoran, you just sat behind your uncle, did your uncle cheat?"

 Li Haoran shook his head: "No, my uncle is just very good at playing cards. He deliberately broke the pairs before so that my grandpa and grandma could win."

 “Little bastard, why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

“Mom, I didn’t expect your poker skills to be so bad.”

 Zhu Xiuhua: “.”

Li Yaoguo, who had not lost much money, returned to the house and sighed: "With your little skills, you still want to win a lot of fish. It is obvious that you deliberately lost money to your parents."

Zhu Xiuhua’s eyes turned red:

“It’s more than twenty yuan. I worked hard for more than ten days to earn it from my brother-in-law, and I haven’t even finished it yet.”

I posted two chapters in the early morning, asking for reading. During the new book recommendation period, I looked at the reading data on Tuesday. Please let me meet the reading standards, please.
