Chapter 280 This fish is enough for the construction site to eat for several days
"I'll go down and see if I can get some fish back."

As Chen Hui spoke, he hung his clothes on An Wenjing's shoulders and walked out on the relatively flat rocks.

Chen Huihong saw this and was about to stop him, but Wu Shuisheng pulled her back, "He can even go to the open sea, so what's this little bit of water?"

Chen Huihong had no rebuttal and called An Wenjing to come over.

Chen Hui entered the water and swam forward following his instincts. He guessed what it was from quite a distance away.

Chase over and take a look.

A huge manta ray weighing about 50 kilograms was lying in the sand on the seabed and eating a large squid.

"Oh!" Chen Hui sighed in his heart, feeling mixed emotions of sadness and joy.

This fish is so big that it’s enough for the construction site to eat for three or four days.

But if such a big fish is a valuable species, the money earned from it can be used to buy meat until the house is built.

He encountered manta rays twice, but he didn't catch them each time because the price was not high.

This time, I wasn't so lucky.

Chen Hui opened the largest net bag he brought with him.

While the stingray is still foraging, approach it cautiously.

This stingray looked dull, but its reactions were quite alert.

From just one or two meters away, he could feel someone was plotting against him, flapping the sides of his body to stir up the fine sand on the seabed.

At the same time, it swam deeper into the sand and hid itself under the sea sand.

Only a long tail is left, blending in with the surroundings, and you may not be able to see it even if you look carefully.

"Why are you running? You can't get away!"

Chen Hui followed slowly behind with the net bag in his hand.

He waited very gentlemanly until the manta ray hid, then closed the opening of the net bag and pulled the manta ray's tail hard.

The startled stingray catapulted forward and ran straight into the center of the net bag.

Chen Hui pulled the net tight and brought the still struggling stingray ashore.

He threw the net bag to the ground and shouted into the distance, "Aunt, daughter-in-law, have you brought a knife?"

"Brother Chen Hui! Are you coming up?" An Wenjing trotted over carrying a bucket.

He wiped Chen Hui's hair with the towel he brought, and then handed him the clothes.

"Who would bring a knife when fishing? Even if you catch fish, you have to go back and deal with them."

Chen Huihong heard the noise and walked towards Chen Hui while talking. She saw the net bag on the ground and exclaimed, "Wow! What did you catch that's so big?"

It is a rare thing to catch big fish on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month.

Chen Huihong's words attracted the attention of other villagers.

Five or six people gathered around to join in the fun.

"A ray, I estimate it to be 40 to 50 kilograms."

"We have to cook lunch and snacks for the chef every day, and this fish won't last for a few days."

Chen Hui spoke loudly, taking the clothes from An Wenjing and putting them on.

The fellow villagers who were watching had some ulterior motives in their minds, but after hearing what Chen Hui said, they were too embarrassed to say anything.

They all said, "Building a house is not easy. It requires money, manpower, and food and drink."

"Chen Hui even invited a construction team from the county town. I wonder what it will look like."

Li Zhaodi, a fellow villager, said this.

Looking at An Wenjing, and then at his own daughter, he joked with envy:

"Wen Jing is so lucky. Look at me, a silly girl."

"I told her before that Chen Hui is about the same age as her and is a good candidate. I asked her to try to get him, but she refused."

"Hey!"

Chen Hui looked at Li Zhaodi's daughter Chen Xiaomei and thought that there was no need to fight for her.

Chen Xiaomei felt a little embarrassed.

He curled his lips and said mercilessly:
"Mom, you clearly told me before that I should be more cautious when looking for a partner and never look for someone like Chen Hui from Shangpinlu, who is idle and lazy." Li Zhaodi's face darkened.

He turned around, slapped Chen Xiaomei hard and scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I say that about Chen Hui?"

Chen Hui and An Wenjing looked at each other and couldn't help laughing out loud.

Chen Huihong wanted to laugh but was too embarrassed, so she held back her laughter and comforted Chen Xiaomei to prevent her from getting angry and saying something else to slap Li Zhaodi in the face.

Until the mother and daughter left noisily, I suddenly felt a little unhappy.

He cursed at the air: "You don't know what you are talking about!"

"Brother Chen Hui, you are such a nuisance!" An Wenjing joked.

"Thank you, Miss An, for taking away this trouble from me. Otherwise, I don't know how many mothers and daughters in the village would have quarreled because of me." Chen Hui replied with a smile.

Chen Huihong couldn't help laughing and decided not to argue with Li Zhaodi.

Wu Shuisheng, who came over later, also laughed when he heard it.

Chen Hui caught such a big fish, and the three of them also caught a lot of oyster snails.

The group finished their sea-hunting early and returned to Wu Jinhua's home chatting and laughing.

Lin Jiao has already taken An Wenyi back.

Wu Jinhua was stunned when he saw the fish. After coming to his senses, he looked around the stingray curiously.

"Big! Really big! Wow, this fish."

"I feel like I've never seen such a big fish in my life."

Chen Hui put the big fish under the patio and prepared it. He smiled and said, "I'll roast a piece for you to try tomorrow. This fish tastes good."

"Oh, no, no! Your family has to take care of so many people's meals every day!"

Wu Jinhua was still as polite as ever.

Chen Hui was still not polite at all. After chatting for a while, he started discussing with Wu Jinhua that he wanted to have lunch and afternoon snacks cooked at her house.

Chen Hui arranged all the daily necessities himself and just wanted to borrow the kitchen. Wu Jinhua agreed without thinking.

"Aunt, cook some for grandma when you cook lunch tomorrow."

"Cook some more snacks and save them for her dinner when she comes back."

Chen Hui gave instructions casually, turned the big fish over, and began to deal with its devilish face.

"This kid, Huihong still needs your instructions for doing things! She gave it to me this afternoon."

As Wu Jinhua spoke, he gave Chen Huihong a reproachful look.

It was obvious that he had tried to refuse, but Chen Huihong managed to handle it.

It is very troublesome to handle a big fish weighing more than 50 kilograms.

Wu Jinhua watched the excitement for a while and then went to sleep.

After all, Wu Shuisheng and Chen Huihong were staying at Wang Hongmei's house, and going back too late would disturb her rest.

Chen Hui also persuaded Chen Huihong to leave.

An Wenjing and I worked on it until late at night. When I lay down on the bed, I felt for the first time that a young body could also get tired.

"Brother Chen Hui!"

An Wenjing's fragrant head leaned over, and her long, smooth hair spread out in front of Chen Hui's chest.

The slightly more delicate hands have boldly passed through the T-shirt.

Imitating Chen Hui's usual behavior, she drew circles on the other side of his chest.

Why are young people tired?

Young people don’t know what tiredness means!
Chen Hui complained to himself in his heart.

He suddenly turned over and switched places with An Wenjing.

He reached out and pulled the light cord at the head of the bed.

Looking at An Wenjing who was smiling shyly under him, he asked, "Wife, where is the list of materials delivered today? Let me see it!"

"what?!"
