Chapter 4 rubbing a seafood pot

"Young man knows how to fish?" Chen Mingen seemed to be really concerned.

"You can try tomorrow!" In fact, Hong Tao could not guarantee that the South China Sea in this era was the same as the South China Sea in his previous life, but now that things have come to this point, let's talk about it for a night. As for tomorrow's affairs, let's talk about it tomorrow. Anyway, it's easy to make lies at any time, and it's not difficult to make excuses. It's not too late to figure out which dynasty he was in and that place he was in. Maybe there are things that are more suitable for him to do, and he begged to fish and stop serving him.

"Haha, then... try it, Azhu, go and tell you Grandpa, come to our boat for dinner tonight, and you can drink wine! Brother, come with me, and find you a dress of dry clothes to change into it first." Chen Mingen was very happy to see Hong Tao so confident, and also said in Hong Tao's tone and tried it. It felt good, so he asked Hong Tao to walk towards his boat.

The life of the Du family is really simple. A wooden boat about ten meters is the living room of their family. The bow is the living room, living room, shrine, and the stern is the kitchen and bathroom. There is a small shed built with straw mats, curtains, wooden sticks, wooden boards, restaurants, and bedrooms in the middle of the ship. No matter men, women, old and young, they all sleep here. Moreover, the ship also serves as a family warehouse. The front half of the cabin is usually a place for fish farming. If the fish and shrimp caught cannot be sold, they will be kept inside. The rear half is filled with some daily necessities such as bedding and clothing, which is the entire property of the Du family.

Chen Mingen lost his wife in middle age and had only one son named Chen Qihong. He only came back in a small boat while cooking dinner. He was a big guy, looking 25 or 6 years old. But when he introduced him, he was only 19 years old, and the years of wind and sunlight and work made him look particularly mature. He also came back with him with a middle-aged man, a young man who looked very similar to the middle-aged man. Chen Mingen introduced that they were the younger brother and son of the middle-aged man, named Ban Xiaosan and Ban Jiao.

As the men returned from sea, the three boats immediately became lively. Two middle-aged women emerged from the tent with the curtains, as well as two little boys around 6 or 7 years old. The adults called the children to make trouble, and it seemed that they suddenly became alive on the dark sea.

Everyone was surprised or curious about the extra person like Hong Tao on the boat, especially the two children, who always squatted beside Hong Tao, blinking his eyes and staring at Hong Tao, but no matter what they asked them, they were always smirking and not talking. Although Hong Tao had already changed into black clothes for the sacred family, he was too tall, his pants just exceeded his knees, his clothes were exposed, and his sleeves were just as big as the elbow. In addition, his skin was whiter than others, and he had a buzz cut, so he didn't need to look carefully, and he was like a duck in a flock of chickens, and he couldn't hide it. It was obviously not a group of people.

Not only are they dressed and looked very different, but they even spoke incompatible. Hong Tao couldn't understand what they were saying, unless they deliberately slowed down their speech, they could barely understand a few words. But they could understand Hong Tao's words, but they often laughed. They probably thought Hong Tao's accent was also very special and fun. Especially the girl named Banzhu, who smiled unscrupulously and could spread far from the sea.

Fortunately, there is another Chen Mingen, otherwise Hong Tao would be suffocated. After his brief introduction, Hong Tao finally figured out that these three boats were not a family, but two families. The old man who saved himself was called Bo Fu, and the word Bo did not pronounce (bo) but pronounced (ban), which was homophoned with half. The middle-aged man who rowed the stern was his second son, Bo Xiaoer; the one with a crisp laugh was not the moderator or Bai Zhu, but Bo Xiaoer's youngest daughter, Bo Zhu. The middle-aged man who came back tonight was Bo Fu's third son, Bo Xiaosan, and Bo Xiaosan's eldest son, Bo Jiao. The two women came out of the cabin were Bo Xiaoer and Bo Xiaosan's wife, one Bu Shi and the other was Bo Yu. The two children were Bo Xiaoer's second son, and the other was Bo Xia, and Bo Xiaosan's son.

They lived on two ships on the east side, while Chen Mingen, Chen Qihong and his son lived on the ship on the west side. To say that the Bo family and the Chen family did not have too close kinship, but they did not have any relationship at all. Chen Qihong's fiancée was the youngest daughter of Bo Fu's wife's brother-in-law, but the boat of Bo Fu's wife's brother-in-law had not come yet. The Dan family did not have a fixed village, and they usually lived together with each other by boat in this kind of kinship relationship. Moreover, the Dan family basically did not marry the natives, and the living environment was relatively closed. The family often could not handle everything, so it would be easier to get a few more families.

Hong Tao only realized the word "Native" until now that Bozhu called him "Native" does not mean that he was a barbarian, but a title for everyone living on the shore. Generally speaking, this title is not a good word. People on the shore look down on the shore and the shore also do not like them, so they made the word "Native" name for a collective term.

The Dan family is not only poor, but also unable to receive education. Neither in private schools or public schools, they will accept the Dan family going to school. Therefore, the Dan family has no writing and only one word of mouth. Chen Mingen is an exception. Only his grandfather's generation escaped and became a Dan family, and he has studied. Therefore, his family's ancestors can read and recognize words. Not only him, but people who have been in contact with him for a long time have also learned some Chinese language. It may not be good to say it, but it is no problem to listen.

This supper is very good for Hong Tao's taste, rice + seafood hotpot. Although there is no seasoning and only coarse salt, the taste of a pot of sea fish, shellfish, shrimps, crabs, and sea dishes is still very good. The main thing is that the ingredients are fresh, and even boiled in the white water will taste great. Hong Tao was dragged by a boat for more than ten kilometers in the sea. After hungry for an afternoon, he was already hungry. At first, he was not too relaxed, for fear of eating too much and snatching other people's meals. But after seeing that Bozhu brought the wooden basin, he was not polite immediately. There were most of the basins of sea fish, shellfish and crabs, add as much as you eat. It was enough. Slide your cheeks and eat it!
