Golden Fishing Village

The doctor arrived soon and got anxious when he saw him using mineral water to clean the boy's wound.

Before he could speak, Ao Muyang explained: "This is alum water."

The doctor was relieved after hearing this: "I thought you knew so much that you wouldn't be ignorant of the pretreatment method of jellyfish wounds."

After boarding the boat, he first checked the child's eyes and blood pressure, asked the child to sit upright at the bow with his feet hanging down, then took out antihistamines for him to take, and changed to 1% concentration of ammonia water to cool the wound.

After quickly handling it, the doctor said: "The problem is not serious. Send him to our hospital for a calcium gluconate first, and follow up observation. Everyone dispersed."

When the child was taken away by the doctor, the crowd naturally dispersed.

Ao Muyang shouted to the crowd: "Stay away from jellyfish when you see them, don't touch them!"

A fisherman in the village said with a bitter face: "Damn, my fishing home has specially prepared a lot of jellyfish skins and jellyfish heads, intending to sell them hot. Once this incident happened, I guess they can't be sold."

Old Ao didn't care about this matter. He had to organize people to go out to sea to clean up the jellyfish, and at the same time let all the sightseeing boats out to sea prepare alum water. Once someone was bitten by a jellyfish, they had to clean the wound quickly.

He reported this matter to the Fisheries Association and the Fisheries Bureau. Dai Zongxi was very distressed when he heard the news. In recent years, large jellyfish have been visiting Hongyang Bay, and the explosive growth of large jellyfish has become a global problem.

Dai Zongxi told Ao Muyang that there are roughly three points of consensus in the academic community on this issue: First, climate warming leads to higher sea temperature, which may stimulate the germination of jellyfish polyps. Second, human overfishing has reduced the number of fish that feed on jellyfish larvae and compete with them in the ocean. Third, the increased pollution in coastal waters has led to eutrophication of seawater, and the rich nutrients provide sufficient food for jellyfish. In addition, coastal engineering can provide a place for the attachment of jellyfish polyps.

The National Institute of Oceanography has also come to Hongyang Bay to study the reasons for the increase in large offshore jellyfish. One is that the weather has been dry this year, and the change in salinity in coastal waters has stimulated the germination of jellyfish polyps.

Second, jellyfish follow the current to the coastal waters where the water is relatively calm, and they gather here and are reluctant to leave. When they encounter the tide towards the shore, they will follow the waves into the bathing beach and rush onto the beach.

These are factors that cannot be changed by human power. To deal with jellyfish, we can only send ships frequently to salvage them.

Fortunately, it is not the season for jellyfish outbreaks yet. There are not many jellyfish in the sea outside the village. Ao Muyang arranged a special fishing boat to go out for patrol, and nothing happened during the three-day holiday.

After the short holiday, Ao Muyang had even less time to go out to sea. It was only ten days before his wedding, so he had to decorate the banquet site.

In addition, he had to be responsible for decorating the wedding site. After discussing with Lu Zhizi, he chose the old house for the wedding ceremony, so he had to clean up the old house.

Marriage is like the New Year, and you need to prepare sufficient tributes. The difference is that the tributes for the New Year are rice cakes, while for marriage, you need to prepare rice cakes.

Other things can be bought, but there is nowhere to sell rice cakes, so Ao Muyang has to do it himself.

You need tools to push rice cakes, one is a stone mortar, and the other is a wooden hammer. There are both in this village. He went to borrow them and steamed glutinous rice to push.

The wooden hammer has granite inlaid on the capital, and it depends entirely on the gravity of this stone to push the rice cakes. It is a hard job, and Lao Ao is not short of strength. He stuffed the glutinous rice into the stone mortar and raised the wooden hammer to hit it.

The weather got hot in May, and he was sweating all over in a short while, so he took off his shirt to beat the glutinous rice.

Ao Mudong also took off his clothes to help after seeing this. He tightened his belt, deliberately showing off his bulging chest and abdominal muscles, and swung the wooden handle of the hammer.

Pushing rice cakes is the same as pushing rice cakes. There are two people in the specific operation, one is the hand pusher, who is used to beat the glutinous rice, and the other is the hand rubbing sitting next to the mortar. Every time the hand pusher pushes the rice cake, the hand rubbing must quickly use his hands to push the sticky glutinous rice to the middle.

This job is not easy to do. Originally, Ao Fugui was busy, and Ao Muyang wanted to replace him.

You have to know that the glutinous rice and rice flour used for pushing rice cakes are just steamed out of the oven. If they are cold, they can't be made into rice cakes, so they are very hot. In this way, every time you rub your hands to push the glutinous rice to the middle, you will get burned.

Ao Fugui put a basin of ice water next to him. He had to put his hands in the ice water to soak every time he pushed Nuomi. In order to match Ao Mudong's frequency, he had to complete this push and soak in a very short time, which was very difficult.

Seeing that Ao Muyang was coming to replace him, Ao Fugui shook his head and said, "No need, I'll do it for you!"

When Ao Muyang was free, he squatted under the shade of the tree to shave the general and the wolf brothers. It was spring, the season for them to change their fur, and the house was full of fur, which was very annoying.

He hadn't scraped for a while when Ao Mudong panted and shouted, "Stop cleaning their hair, the dog hair has all flown into the mortar."

Ao Wenchang, who was also watching the fun, laughed and said, "Brother Dong, can you do it? You've only scraped a few times, why are you panting so hard?"

"You're weak." Ao Mupeng said, "It's like this now that you have a wife, Brother Dong, I understand you."

Ao Mudong laughed and scolded, "Get lost, this wooden hammer weighs ten kilograms, come and try to see how many times you can scrape it?"

"The dragon head has been knocking for a long time, and it hasn't breathed..."

"Wait, what do you mean by not breathing?" Ao Muyang replied, "I just didn't breathe heavily."

A group of good guys gathered together and took turns pushing the rice cakes, and they were cleaned up in a short while, which was neat and tidy.

After making the rice cake, Ao Muyang cut a few pieces and distributed them to everyone. This thing can be made into a dessert by sprinkling some white sugar when going back, and he used milk when steaming glutinous rice, which tasted better.

He gave the remaining rice cake to Grandma Qianlai, who used the rice cake mold to help him make various shapes of offerings.

There are so many things to prepare for the wedding, and it becomes busier and busier as time goes by. Tu Yishao is responsible for vegetables and meat, but some are provided by the village vegetable garden. He has to take people to the vegetable garden to collect vegetables, and he has to kill chickens and geese.

There is also a dish called pounding fish at the local wedding. This dish is very popular. Tu Yishao has limited physical strength and cannot make this fish, so Lao Ao has to take care of it himself.

It is simple to beat fish. Choose some fish, shave off the fish meat, spread sweet potato powder on the panel, and then beat the fish meat with a wooden mallet, and then sprinkle bean powder on it until it is beaten into thin slices.

You have to choose fresh fish, and you can use grass carp among freshwater fish. Grass carp meat is firm, and the pounded fish meat is the most chewy when fried in boiling oil.

Another reason is that there are many grass carps in Longxian Lake, so Ao Muyang wanted to cast a net to catch some.

In order to ensure that the pounded fish meat is delicious, this cannot be done in advance. It was not until mid-May, when there were only three or four days before the wedding, that Ao Muyang started to prepare.
