Ye Yaodong was very satisfied with what he heard, he was sure that it sank, it would definitely hurt his muscles and bones if he lost a boat, that should have been jointly bought by all the families, and now seeing how they robbed, he could only carry sandbags.
He happily chopped up two large pieces of gai choi and gave it to Aunt Lan.
The weight of this vegetable is not light, a big one can weigh seven or eight catties, he planted two ridges on the side of the house, he can't finish it every day, and in two days it is estimated that he will cut it down and let him dry it. The old lady helped to pickle the pickles.
Now all housewives have skills and can do everything.
Just as he was cleaning the vegetables at the back door, he heard a call from the house, and he responded, thinking it was his wife urging him to hurry up and put the washed vegetables into the washbasin, so he quickly brought them into the house .
"Ah Zheng, Xiao Xiao? What brought you here? I will stay for dinner later..."
"Hey... No... You're hiding it too well, right?" Xiao Xiao glanced at Lin Xiuqing's stomach secretly, and said in surprise.
He smiled wryly, "I can't help it, who made my seed too strong, and there is another one here... hey..."
"It's quite useful, better than Ah Zheng, and Ah Zheng is also very hardworking, and his wife is just pregnant."
"Huh? Damn it, if you say Dongzi, you can say Dongzi. It's none of my business. You know I'm hardworking when you're at home? You go to my house every day to listen to the corner?" Ah Zheng stared at Xiaoxiao dissatisfied.
"Who hasn't come here, this is just married, so several times a day is not too much, look at your wife's belly and Dongzi's wife's belly, there is such a gap! It's so powerful..."
"Nima Gobi, believe it or not, I put my fist in your mouth..."
Ye Yaodong looked at them speechlessly, "Are you here on purpose to talk nasty things? Do you want to go out and have a fight first, and then come in and talk after the fight?"
"Just a few nonsense words. Take it easy. Every month, someone will go to the countryside to check every house. I heard that two people were arrested in Wudun Village, more than ten kilometers away, and one was fined. The pigs and sheep were all taken away."
"Well, I will pay attention, I live far from here. What are you doing here, sit down and talk."
Xiao Xiao and Ah Zheng looked at each other, and then said: "Didn't I tell you in November and February last year that I wanted to change the boat, the small wooden boat is too small, and can only work along the coast , and the carrying capacity is also limited, so you can only pull the ground cage and pull the hand to throw the net."
"Then do you have a clue?"
Ah Zheng nodded, "Yes, I heard from my uncle that the fishing team in the next town wants to release some boats. He has friends who can help me get one."
"It's a good thing, then you have calculated whether you have done it, and how much money is left. If you don't make a sound, you can still get it out of a thousand or eight hundred yuan."
The two smiled happily when they heard the words, "I knew you were righteous."
"It's still up to you! Good brother!"
Ye Yaodong smiled, "What's the matter? Buying a boat is a serious matter. We are all good brothers, and it is only right to help out when there are difficulties."
It’s not about borrowing money to eat, drink, **** and gamble.
"We have inquired. Because the fishing team was disbanded over there, the boats are very cheap. It is about 2,000 yuan like yours, which is a few hundred cheaper than usual."
"We summed it up, and the difference is only 500 yuan. My brothers and sisters have a large family to support, and there is not much money to borrow. I came to ask you after thinking about it. I wanted to collect the money from the meeting, but The time hasn't come yet, and we can't wait for the bidding meeting."
Ye Yaodong nodded, "It's okay, let me know if you have any difficulties, I can still get 500 yuan, when will I want it?"
"Make an appointment to see the boat the day after tomorrow. If it goes well, we can sail back on the same day."
He turned his head to look at Lin Xiuqing who was sitting in front of the stove and lighting a fire, "Ah Qing..."
Lin Xiuqing stood up immediately, "I'll go into the house and get it."
The two received the money, and after counting it correctly, they expressed their thanks again and again.
It is true that these days, every family is not well-off, and five hundred yuan is not a lot. It is not so easy to borrow, not to mention money from brothers, let alone others.
"I'll have someone write an IOU and send it over later."
"It's okay, how can I not trust you?" Ye Yaodong waved his hands and said indifferently, Wubai said that it was not too much, and he was not afraid of them letting them go. We grew up together, so there is still some trust.
"One thing is another thing, believe it or not, you have to type an IOU."
Ah Zheng nodded, "Yes, when the boat comes back, I'll ask you to drink."
"This can be."
The two talked for a while to remind them before leaving.
Lin Xiuqing and others said after they left: "You are being righteous to your friends. Five hundred yuan is so much, so you can borrow it if you say so."
Ye Yaodong closed the door first, and then said: "They have been working hard these past few months. It's rare that they are so motivated, so I can't help? Everyone makes progress together, isn't it good?"
"It's a big change. A group of people used to know how to eat, drink, drink and have fun every day, but suddenly they all turned around together. It's strange."
In fact, that's all she said, and she didn't object to it just now. After all, buying a ship is indeed a serious matter.
"Are you enlightened? Haha, I have a good head."
She rolled her eyes, "The next time you borrow money, don't be so straightforward, otherwise people will think we are rich, so we will borrow five hundred."
"Let's eat, go to the next door and call the two back."
"good."
The family was having a lively meal. Unexpectedly, there was another knock on the door outside the house. The couple became alert, and they felt a little bit like they were in trouble now.
"Dongzi, the old lady is sick and is hanging water."
Ye Yaodong immediately put down the bowl and chopsticks in shock, and hurriedly opened the door to go out, "What's the matter, why are you sick? Have a cold?"
Ye Yaopeng walked and said: "When I went to buy angelica just now, my father went to the health center to call for someone, so I hurried back and told you. It is said that this morning, my uncle came to the door with snot and tears and said that the big brother was sentenced to 6 years. , the second cousin was sentenced to a year and a half, and the old lady was in a bad mood on the spot."
"I don't know if the old lady is old and can't stand stimulation? If I say it, I don't know how to avoid her..."
It has been almost three months since I was arrested, and now during the crackdown period, it is almost time to be sentenced, and it is time to kill chickens and monkeys.
"Who knows, the uncle has always been unreliable. Both sons have accidents, so he lost his backbone?"
"The upper beam is not upright and the lower beam is crooked. He himself is not in the right mind. He taught both sons to want to take shortcuts..."
"I don't know how the old lady is, she is already old, and when she gets old, she still has to worry about her children and grandchildren..."
The three brothers talked as they walked, and they were all very dissatisfied with Uncle Ye.
After arriving at the old house, they saw the village doctor coming out of the house, and the three of them immediately gathered around to inquire.
"It doesn't look like a serious problem. It should be mentally stimulated and fell ill. Hang up two bottles of glucose."
Ye Yaodong gave him a distrustful look, "Only glucose?"
"The old lady used to be in good health. It shouldn't be a big problem if she recovers from this. Hang on for a couple of days and see."
Barefoot doctor!
He muttered something in his heart and went straight into the house, asking the barefoot doctor, why not see it with his own eyes.
Only Ye's father and Ye's mother were in the room. The old lady was lying there with her eyes closed, her face was pale and bloodless, there was a floor-to-ceiling clothes hanger beside the bed, a glass bottle was hanging on it, and a needle was inserted in her hand. Her face looked more beautiful than before. A little older, and it hurts to watch.
"How is the old lady? What's going on?" He looked at Father Ye and asked in a low voice.
"Wake up, feel bad."
Mother Ye added: "In the morning when your uncle told about your two cousins, they shed tears together. After being persuaded, they went back to the house and didn't come out. They asked her to eat at noon and couldn't get up. You Dad was worried, so he called the doctor to come and take a look."
"Okay, why tell the old lady that her spirit has only looked better during this time..."
"Dongzi is here?" At this time, the old lady heard a familiar voice and turned her head to look for it.
Ye Yaodong immediately sat down by the bed, "Hey, it's me, I'm here, how are you doing, is there any discomfort? The doctors in the village are not good at medical skills, if you have any discomfort, you have to tell me, otherwise we will go to the county look."
"Don't worry about it, I'm fine, I just feel chest tightness, and I don't have much strength in my body, don't bother me so much, I'll just lie down for two days and I'll be fine..."
The old lady's opened eyes were still bloodshot, and there were some tears in her eyes, which made people feel distressed.
Ye Yaodong scolded Uncle Ye's family again in his heart, it really hurt others and himself.
"You need to take care of your health quickly. The two children in the family run wild all day long. Ah Qing can't see it now. You have to get up and help me look after the children. In more than a month, you still have to hug your great-grandson, otherwise I will be scared." too busy."
The old lady immediately became more energetic when she heard the words, and said with a smile: "Let your mother go over to help watch more, or you can bring the two over and let them live in the old house for a while, and I will be fine in two days. Boys just know Mischievous..."
"Yes, so you have to watch the children for me. A bunch of your great-grandchildren are all educated, but my family is still young. You can't ignore it."
"No, no, I can get out of bed tomorrow."
"Lie down and take care of them for two days first, otherwise you won't be able to watch the two. Do you want to eat, I'll go buy you some fruit later?"
"Don't, don't, don't waste money, I don't eat it, what's delicious if it's cold, don't waste money." The old lady became a little anxious when she heard that he was going to buy fruit for her.
"Then hurry up, I won't buy it."
"Hey okay... I'll be fine soon..."
Seeing that she was feeling better again, he felt relieved.
Go to the ground cage later to collect it and see if there are any good fish and shrimps to bring back. It rained at night and did not go to sea, but it cleared up in the morning.
"Is there any porridge, mother, please cook some porridge? Porridge is easy to digest."
"Hey, okay, I'm going to cook porridge."
"Hey, let you all follow along, I'm fine, children and grandchildren have their own blessings..."
Ye Yaodong helped her raise the pillow so that she could lean on it more comfortably, "You know, then don't worry about it, anyway, it will be released in a few years, take good care of your body, and you can still see it in a few years They come back."
"I know, I'm better now..."
