Chapter 36 Not enough success, more than failure.
After confirming that he had borrowed the boat, Ye Yaodong felt relieved and walked leisurely towards the house, but halfway he thought that the house would start construction tomorrow, so he turned around and walked towards the homestead.
Today it was his second brother’s turn to go to sea with his father. His elder brother stayed at home. After dinner early in the morning, he said that he was going to pick loess from the mountains.
There is a reason why people live better and better. They work hard to get rich, but today's first day of the lunar new year is a rare ebb tide, and they have already borrowed a boat, so they can only make his elder brother work harder.
Thinking of this, he couldn't get up leisurely anymore, and quickened his pace.
When we arrived at the homestead, there was already half a person's height of loess piled up around, but there was no sign of his elder brother, only a large pot of tea was placed under a shady tree beside him, and he probably went to pick up soil again, so he leaned against the tree , I thought about going to help me for a while.
When he was reborn, his mentality had already been set right.
After only waiting for a few minutes, he saw his elder brother pushing a two-wheeled gray bucket cart over.
"Brother!"
Ye Yaopeng looked up and smiled, "Why are you here?"
"Come and have a look, work will start tomorrow, why are you making loess so early?"
He wiped the sweat from his forehead, took another big gulp of tea and said, "I didn't go out to sea today, and I don't have anything to do at home, so I just want to get some more loess back, and I'll use it when the time comes anyway." Yes, starting work on this homestead tomorrow doesn’t count as starting work in advance.”
"Anyway, you have to hire someone to do the work, so just do something lighter yourself."
"This is an easy job. After the start of work tomorrow, the workers who do rough work have to dig holes and go to the mountain to dig stones, and carry the stones down the mountain for the master to chisel them down. Picking loess is already considered light."
Ye Yaodong frowned and nodded, "Okay, I'll go to the mountain with you and give you a hand."
Ye Yaopeng looked at him unexpectedly, "Do you want to help?"
"You don't want my help?"
Depressed, I wanted to help with something, everyone was so surprised.
"Hehe, okay, I will go up the mountain with me to help with the hoe, and today we can push a few more carts." It is rare for the third child to ask for help with work, how could he push it out.
"I'll just work for a while, and I'll be back at ten o'clock. I have something to do in the afternoon."
Ye Yaopeng smiled awkwardly. It turned out that he was thinking too much. The third child just came here to take a look. It is already 8 o'clock. He wants to work hard, so he just said, why did he change his sex.
But it’s good to be able to come around and help a little bit, which shows that he is relieved of building the house. It’s better than not being seen all day before. At night, I heard from his wife that the third child has been helping these few days. We went shopping together, which is considered a bit of progress.
"Okay, then you can help me, and you don't want to run around when the house starts tomorrow. Tomorrow it's my turn to go to sea with Dad. Only the second child, an adult man, is at home. Mother and the others have to pay for the workers again." Cooking must be too busy."
"I know."
Ye Yaodong didn't know what his elder brother was thinking. Even if he knew, he wouldn't worry about it, because this was the effect he wanted, and a person's change should not be too big or too sudden.
After Ye Yaopeng poured out all the loess in the gray bucket truck, he took the initiative to take the handlebar, "Let me push it, you lead the way."
"good."
Although the gravel and dirt roads are not easy to push, the gray bucket truck is empty, and it is quite easy to push. In the past few years, when building houses, everyone used their shoulders to pick up loess and stones from up the mountain.
These materials do not need to cost money, as long as manpower goes to the mountain to pick them.
In the case of a building, only bricks are used on the second floor, because the stones are too heavy and too high to be stacked, and there are no bricks to save trouble.
In fact, comparing the two, there is no difference in price. Although bricks cost money to buy, stones also need to be transported, and the labor of the diggers is more expensive.
Although it was the morning sun, it was still vicious. After walking for a while, Ye Yaodong was already sweating profusely.
Ye Yaopeng picked up the **** as soon as he reached the destination, "I happened to have two dustpans with me, I'll **** them, and when they're full, dump them into the dustpan."
"good!"
Two dustpans, one is full, Ye Yaodong lifts it up and dumps it, the other Ye Yaopeng continues to use it, the two work together, the speed will indeed be faster than the previous one.
After a while, a gray bucket truck was full.
"I'll push it back, why don't you **** a little more loess and prepare it? To save time wasting walking around, you can just push it by yourself."
Ye Yaopeng nodded, "Okay, let's take turns, I will push next time."
"Um."
Let him push it, but he doesn't mind it, anyway, he went back after working for an hour or two, and couldn't push it a few times, but what he didn't expect was that he overturned the car...
After pushing out for a short distance, a stone tripped the tire at the turn, and he lost his balance and rolled over...
Ye Yaopeng came over when he saw it, looked at him who was frowning, and patted him on the shoulder, "It's okay, let's put it back on.
Ye Yaodong was really depressed, and he had never pushed this car, so he could only comfort himself like this.
"It's a good thing that you saw it. Dad saw it. I guess I will hate iron and scold you again."
"How diligent you are to help with the work, Dad will stop scolding, let's put the soil back first."
He curled his lips, but let's put it down, how diligent is his elder brother and second brother? If you don't do a good job, you will also be scolded!
After loading it, Ye Yaopeng didn’t let him push it anymore, so as not to dump it again, “Let me push it, you go and dig more loess.”
"Fine."
Not enough success but more failure, he is better at going to sea!
After helping up the mountain for a while, he saw that the time should be about the same, so he took a step back.
After wielding a **** for so long, his stomach was already flattened by hunger, so he hurried back to eat something to fill his stomach, and prepared tools for washing the sea.
Lin Xiuqing saw him coming back with a flushed face, sweating profusely, and asked curiously, "Didn't you go to borrow a boat? Why does it look like you've gone to work? You look like you've been fished out of the water."
"I just went to work. I came out of Ah Guang's house and saw that it was still early, so I went to help my elder brother."
Everyone looked at him in amazement, and actually offered to help transport the loess?
real or fake?
Seeing everyone's questioning expressions, Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes, "I have a share in the house? If I don't help with some work, will Daddy break my leg?"
This is true!
Father Ye has been out to sea for the past few days, otherwise the voice of Father Ye scolding Ye Yaodong would be heard every day at home.
