Li Xiaoyang's two brothers also caught up. "Mom, we saw a mine. It was bigger than a bucket and full of rust." Sister-in-law Li glanced at the brothers and said, "You are everywhere, you are the only one with quick legs."

.......

Li Xiaoqing nodded, "That's right, you won't call us just to watch the fun."

Li Xiaozhou stretched out his hand to pull her, "Sister, I'm fine! I'll call you when I come back."

Li Xiaoqing rubbed his fluffy curly hair, "Yeah! Our Xiaozhou is the most well-behaved, just like a doll." Li Xiaozhou hurriedly hid behind Li Changle, "A woman can't touch a man's head, it will be bad luck."

"Xiaozhou, your grandma is also a girl, will it be bad luck if she touches her?" "My grandma is a grandma, not a girl."

"Hahaha!" Everyone laughed.

Sister-in-law Li asked Li Changle with envy, "Ale, we are standing far away and can't hear clearly. We can only hear everyone talking about whether you can get anything and hand it over to the police station for any reward. Will they really give it to you? "Really, hand it over?

You can give it to the Coast Guard."

"Oh! Your elder brother and the others are helping others. Even if they get some bugs, it will only be a benefit to the big ones." Accountant Chen laughed and said, "It's not that easy to get. If that happens, we will become a sieve here."

"That's right, I've been promoting it for two or three years, but this is the first time I've heard of something being fished out of the sea."

"It's still Ah Le, Ah Wei has good luck..."

Everyone walked back talking. Some said that they must be more careful in the future. If they catch something and hand it over, they can win a prize. Some said that Li Changle and the two are very lucky, and they can also find certificates and bonuses by searching the sea.

.

After Li Changle and his party arrived home, he told Zhou Ruonan and Sister-in-law Li that Li's father would be discharged from the hospital and go home in the afternoon. Sister-in-law Li happily said: "We will pick them up together in the afternoon."

Li Changle: "No, Awei and I will go together."

"Then we'll wait at home." Sister-in-law Li happily pulled Zhou Ruonan, "Let's go tell A-Zhen about dad's return." The two went out and saw that the door next door was ajar, "Second sister-in-law also went to see

Is the excitement gone?"

"I went to wash the spicy snails."

Before she finished speaking, Sister-in-law Li came back with a porcelain basin, "Sister-in-law, Nan, I picked up a lot of spicy snails today, you can take some to eat too."

Sister-in-law Li nodded cheerfully, "I just happened to be feeling a little angry these past two days. I'll go back and get the rice basket, pour some back and cook it with dipping sauce and vinegar to eat it up."

"Xiaohai and Xiaozhou are also a little angry. I'm still thinking of grabbing some and bringing them back!" Zhou Ruonan took out the rice basket, poured half of it into it, and told her about Father Li's return in the afternoon. Laluo

In some places, it is also called bitter snail, because in addition to the spiciness at its tail, it also has a bitter taste. The bitterness mainly comes from the subbranchial glands, digestive glands and rectal glands in the abdomen.

Spicy snails have the effects of clearing away heat, detoxifying, reducing inflammation and stopping swelling. The snail shells can also be used as medicine to treat lymphocytosis, tuberculosis, goiter and other diseases.

March is the time when the spicy snails are most abundant. Some people will collect spicy snails and take them home, break the shells into pieces, take out the snail meat and marinate it with salt in spicy snail sauce.

Marinate the snail meat for a day or two, drain the marinated soup, add some rice wine and a little salt, mix well, put it in a clay pot, seal it, marinate it into snail sauce and store it.

After about ten days, the spicy snail sauce was marinated, and the spicy snail meat after it came out of the can tasted refreshing and crispy, spicy and bitter, bitter and sweet, and had a long aftertaste. When Li Changle saw her carrying the spicy snail into the house, "Did your second sister-in-law give it to you?"

Zhou Ruonan nodded, "The children have eaten too much ginger candies in the past two days and have gotten a little angry. Don't buy so much next time." "Buy less next time." Li Changle said with a smile, "That will happen later. When the children are ready to eat, you can cook it for them to eat."

"Hmm, you take a rest for a while, I'll be fine in a minute."

Li Changle remembered that he had not told her about buying a tricycle, so he went to the house to get the receipt and order, and handed it to Zhou Ruonan proudly, "Honey, I bought something big." "What big thing?" Zhou Ruonan was curious. Taking the order, "Tricycle, why is it so cheap?"

"It's not new, it was assembled by someone else using used tricycle parts." Li Changle said with a smile, "With the tricycle, when I go to town to sell my catch, I don't have to go to Ah Qing to borrow it." Zhou Ruonan thought of yesterday afternoon. When she went to A-Qing to borrow a bicycle, A-Ping got angry and said, "It's better to buy one. It's more convenient to use."

Li Changle knew from the look on her face that it was probably Chen Liping who gave her a look, "What's wrong? Ah Qing's wife showed you a look?" "That's not true. The main thing is that the bicycle is not a pole or a basket. We go there every two days. I’m embarrassed to borrow it!”

"I thought that was the case, so I gritted my teeth and made the decision." Li Changle pointed at the plastic can, "Tie the can in the afternoon and take it down tonight. If you are lucky, you can earn back the money for the tricycle in a week. "

"Yeah!" Zhou Ruonan asked him to look at the fire in the stove. Seeing that his second sister-in-law had washed the spicy snails, he scooped two scoops of water from the water tank, rinsed it, scooped two scoops of water into the pot, and put it in Add some salt and pour the spicy snails in. People in their family like to boil the spicy snails in water and then dip them in sauce and vinegar to eat.

The meat of the boiled spicy snails is delicate. Dip it in soy sauce and vinegar and put it in your mouth. The sweet and sour taste of the soy sauce and vinegar and the bitter and spicy taste of the snail meat are mixed together. When it touches the tip of the tongue, the taste buds will feel it. It is fresh for a while. Bitter, spicy, sour, and sweet are mixed together, and the taste is a bit like Schisandra chinensis from the mountains.

After the spicy snails were cooked, Li Changle went to the alley to call some children back for dinner. When he saw Li Xiaoyang hunched over, Li Xiaohai jumped over with his hands on his back. "Brother is so powerful, he was over in a flash." Little Li Xiaozhou stood by the wall and clapped his hands to cheer.

"Stop playing, go home and eat." Li Changle shouted and turned around to go back to the house.

"Oh, let's eat! Let's eat big ribs!" Li Xiaozhou cheered and turned around, chasing Li Changle.

Li Changle went back and helped put the dishes on the table. Braised pork ribs with dried bamboo shoots, stir-fried green vegetables, boiled spicy snails, and sauce-vinegar dishes exuding a strong sour and sweet taste.

"Wow! Big ribs!" Li Xiaozhou climbed onto the bench excitedly. Zhou Ruonan smiled and patted him, "Greedy cat! Your hands look like cat paws. Go down and wash your hands with your brother before you come back." "Oh! "The little guy quickly got off the bench and washed his hands following Li Xiaohai who had just entered the room.

Zhou Ruonan picked up a few pieces of ribs and put them in the bowls of his two sons. After they washed their hands and came over, they ate just right.

Li Changle looked at the two little ones jumping to wash their hands. He picked up the chopsticks and picked up a spicy snail. He took off the lid and inserted the chopsticks into the spicy snail. A complete piece of snail meat was picked out. He painted the snail meat black. Remove the lump and then pull out the liver. You will feel dizzy after eating this.

Dip it in the soy sauce vinegar and put it in your mouth. The sweet and juicy snail meat, the sweet and sourness of the soy sauce vinegar and the hint of bitterness of the spicy snails make you feel wonderful.

Li Xiaozhou climbed on the stool to cook, picked up a piece of ribs and gnawed on it. His cheeks were bulging, and he didn't forget to ask Li Changle, "Abba, why don't you eat the ribs? It's delicious." Li Xiaohai also nodded, "Abba , the spareribs are delicious, so fragrant!”

"That's because your mother-in-law is good at cooking. Even cooking vegetables is delicious!"

"I'm talking like a chef." Zhou Ruonan glared at him angrily and put a piece of ribs in his bowl. "You should eat too. Eat more meat and fat so that you have the strength to work." Li Changle squeezed at her. Winking, "You still don't know whether I am strong or not when I work!"

Stinky man! Zhou Ruonan gave him a look and stepped on his instep, "If you don't talk nicely, stop eating."

Li Xiaohai looked at her puzzled and helped: "Mom, dad is right, he is really strong, he can even carry such a heavy fish home." "." Zhou Ruonan's eyes flew out. Xiang Li Changle, "Xiaohai is right, you guys also eat it, and after you eat it, you help my mother tie the jar."

"Good son!" Li Changle smiled sullenly, picked out a few pieces of snail meat, put them on the sauce and vinegar plates, and said to the two little guys, "Your mother-in-law said that you are getting angry, so eat some spicy snails to relieve the heat." Li Xiaozhou nodded and said, "The poop I pooped today was full of sheep poop. My mother-in-law said that my brother and I would get angry if we ate too much ginger candies every day."

Li Changle knocked on the table with his finger, "Comrade Li Xiaozhou, it's not civilized at all for you to talk about shit when people are eating!" Li Xiaohai: "My brother also said that all he pooped was sheep shit."

"Hee hee!" Li Xiaozhou pointed at him, "Brother is still learning from me!" The meal was spent in a cheerful atmosphere of laughter and laughter.

Li Changle sat on the chair, crossed his legs, and smoked while looking at his two sons who were playing wildly outside with his cousin after dinner. He felt like they were children.

I sat there and watched for a while, and saw several children holding one leg, standing on one foot, jumping and playing with crutches. Suddenly I remembered that the crutches had not been chopped back, so I ran to the woods with the machete and chopped down two crooked sticks. I dragged the small tree back home. I dried the branches and leaves to make firewood. I peeled off the bark and cleaned the burrs on the tree. I clapped my hands and looked at the packed walking sticks. I thought they were pretty good.

When Chen Yongwei came over, it took the three people three hours to tie the cans with fishing ropes. After tying the four fishing ropes they bought, there were still about ten left. Li Changle planned to pick out dozens more when he had time. Come back together and tie another fishing rope.

Looking at the jars that almost took up half of the room, he said, "Awei, my house is too narrow. From now on, these jars will be placed in your house."

"Okay, I'll take it back right now." Chen Yongwei took the sack from Zhou Ruonan and filled the cans with Li Changle, "Brother, it's almost four o'clock, are we going to the hospital right now?" "You put the cans. Take it back and I'll wash your face."

Half an hour later, the two of them got on the minibus going to Tuxiaqiao. When they arrived at the hospital, Mother Li had already packed her things and was waiting.

The weather was hot, and the eggs and ducks given by relatives and friends went bad before she could finish them. She gave most of them to sell on the street, and she kept all the dry goods and candies that she would need when visiting relatives later. Li Changle watched. The second elder couldn't wait to go home. He took the order issued by Dr. Lin and went to the window to complete the discharge procedures. To his surprise, he still had six yuan left in the prepaid hospitalization fee. He took the money and medicine and returned to the ward. My mother and Chen Yongwei had already put all their things in their backpacks and were waiting for him to arrive and set off home.

Li's father said happily: "I can finally go home. I have been lying in the hospital for the past two days, and my bones have hurt from sleeping."

Li's mother glared at him angrily and mentioned the toiletries, "Didn't you often say before that if you could do nothing one day and just sleep peacefully for a few days, it would be fine. Now that you are asked to sleep, you can't lie down. "Is it the same to stay in the hospital as to stay at home?" Father Li felt distressed when he thought about the money he spent in the past few days. "It doesn't cost anything to stay at home, but it costs money faster to stay in the hospital. It only took a few days." More than two hundred and ninety"

"Abba, it's nothing more than two hundred. As long as it can be cured, it's worth spending no matter how much money you spend."

"If that's the case, it's better not to be treated and die cleanly than to go away with a huge debt." "Bah, bah, bah!" Mrs. Li spat three times in succession, "His father, he just left the hospital and didn't die. It's unlucky to die!" "Okay, I won't say anything." Li's father said to Li Changle, "Let's go home quickly. If you're late, you'll be caught in the rain."

Chen Yongwei asked curiously: "Tang Bo, how did you know it was going to rain?"

Father Li patted his knees, "My bones are not up to par, and they will start to hurt whenever the weather changes."

Li Changle knew that he was suffering from rheumatism. "I went back and fried salt and applied hot compresses to relieve the pain. It's best to go and have a look."

"Doctor Lin prescribed some ointment, and I'll put it on him when we get back." Li's mother picked up her luggage, "Now that we're gone, dark clouds are coming, and it's going to rain if we keep talking." Li Changle hurriedly knelt down in front of Li's father, "Abba, let me carry you downstairs."

Chen Yongwei said hurriedly: "Brother, I am strong, I will carry it."

"Awei, take the basket and let this kid carry me." Father Li said and lay on his son's generous back.

Li Changle carried Father Li, who was not as heavy as expected, and walked out step by step with steady steps. He hugged his father, who didn't even have much flesh on his thighs, and felt sour in his heart. Mother Li followed behind. Read, "Ale, please watch the stairs and walk slowly, don't knock your father down..."

Father Li saw his son walking away silently without saying a word, so he hurriedly said, "Stop nagging behind me. He's such a big man and can't carry an old man like me, so what's the use of him?"
