Chapter 1124 Magic

It was only in the summer that it got dark late. He was very familiar with the road from the city to the village. He didn't know how many times he had run there. He wanted to go back early before dark. Except for the bends and mountain roads, he sped up on other roads.

When he arrived at the entrance of the village, it was just dark, and there was only a little dim light.

"It's here, little uncle, the sound of this motorcycle sounds really majestic, um~"

"You drive fast, so cool, the wind blows directly past my ears..."

"It's so bumpy, several times my butt bounced up, fortunately I held on tightly, otherwise I would have been thrown out..."

"The wind is also strong, there is a lot of sand, and I can't even open my mouth..."

"Little uncle, Ah Hai and the others will probably be shocked when they see me, right? Haha, if they knew that I could learn to ride a motorcycle from you, they would probably be envious to death, haha..."

Lin Guangyuan was very excited all the way. He had been holding it back all the way, and now he felt that he had a lot to say.

Ye Yaodong ignored him and turned into the village entrance and drove back home. When he arrived at the door of his house, it was dark. It was just a short distance. There was still some light when he arrived at the village entrance.

Really, the light and dark are only a moment.

As soon as the motorcycle stopped, the dogs at home ran out and barked and circled around the motorcycle. Even the puppy was rubbing against the motorcycle.

Before Lin Guangyuan got out of the sidecar, the dogs jumped in one after another. Surprised, he hurriedly got down with the torn quilt.

"Uncle, your dogs are so lucky, right? They can even ride on the motorcycle."

"Not only that, they still sleep in it at night, and they have to fight each other before they can sleep."

"People are not as good as dogs."

"Cousin Ayuan..."

The children behind him shouted in surprise.

"Ayuan, why are you here? Don't you have to help with housework?"

"Cousin Ayuan, is it fun in the city?"

In the blink of an eye, everyone surrounded them, calling Lin Guangyuan affectionately, forgetting about a living person like him. Only Ye Xiaoxi hugged his legs and called him daddy sweetly.

Ye Yaodong smiled and picked up the child, "You are the one with a conscience, while the others have no conscience. No one sees a living person like me standing here. Call me."

As soon as he reminded them, the others turned around and called him.

"Go away, don't worry, open the quilt and get an ice pack first."

Lin Guangyuan then remembered the pack of popsicles in his hand.

"It's melting fast, isn't it?"

"It's OK, it's just melted a little, it's still edible, you can lick it..."

"Ah... there are popsicles... That's great, Dad, did you bring them back specially for us?"

"Popsicles... Popsicles... So many..."

"One for each person."

"Great, what are these bags of stuff? Is it water?"

"It's ice water, now it's melted a little bit, just right for drinking."

Ye Yaodong explained, then picked up an orange flavored one at random, bit a small hole in it, and handed it to Ye Xiaoxi who kept shouting "I want it, I want it" and was about to pounce to get it.

"What are you in a hurry for? Others don't have it, but you're afraid that you don't have it."

She widened her eyes, held it with both hands and sucked it hard, took a sip and took it away, "Ha~ It's so cold~"

"Is it delicious?"

She nodded heavily.

Lin Xiuqing came out of the house and said with a smile: "Why are you back so late? I thought you were just going to collect some bills and deliver something today, so you should be back soon. Why did Ayuan come back too?"

"Auntie!" Lin Guangyuan shouted loudly.

"Something happened and delayed me. You guys get out of the way."

Ye Yaodong put Ye Xiaoxi on the motorcycle and asked her to hold on to it. Don't just focus on eating, and push the motorcycle into the yard first.

Lin Xiuqing was afraid that she would fall if she was busy eating, so she stood by and supported her, "Just put her down."

"It's okay."

"Let's go into the house and eat first. You shouldn't have eaten yet so late. I didn't know Ayuan came back with me and didn't leave much food. I'll go cook another bowl of noodles."

"Cook instant noodles for him."

Lin Guangyuan responded excitedly, "Okay, I want to eat instant noodles. It's great. My uncle's house is still the best. It's so cool."

"Mom, I want to eat too..."

Ye Yaodong said, "Then buy a few more packs and cook more."

"You just finished your meal, and you want to eat instant noodles again. Is your stomach bottomless? You're still eating popsicles in your mouth, and holding another pack in your hand, and you're thinking about instant noodles again. Can you eat more?"

"I can eat!"

Ye Chenghu and Ye Chengyang said in unison.

Ye Yaodong smiled and said, "Go buy it. I'll eat first."

"Mom, instant noodles are more refreshing with soda!" Ye Chenghu said with a smile.

"Do you want to eat the whip?"

"Hehe~"

When Lin Guangyuan came over, it was like adding a handful of firewood to the water in the pot. The children became more lively, chattering non-stop. Ye Yaodong could hear the noisy noise outside while sitting in the house eating.

After not seeing each other for a while, the sudden arrival made him feel more intimate. The children were originally of similar ages.

Lin Xiuqing went to the store to buy instant noodles and came back. The howling at the door became louder.

Ye Chenghu was so excited that he turned over twice on the ground, "It's good that Dad is back..."

"You still have to count on me to cook for you!"

"Hehe, Mom is good too."

Lin Xiuqing glanced at him sideways before going into the house.

Ye Xiaoxi followed her into the house in a hurry, then moved to the stove, squatted next to the old lady, supported her chin with both hands, and looked at the blazing fire in the stove.

The old lady has boiled the water in advance, so the instant noodles can be cooked as soon as they are brought into the house, and can be eaten immediately after being boiled.

She shrugged her nose and smacked her mouth a few times, "It smells so good~"

After saying that, he immediately stood up and moved to Lin Xiuqing's feet. He stood on tiptoes, but he couldn't see the stove. He scratched his head and felt uncomfortable. He kept circling around Lin Xiuqing's feet, and from time to time he tried to reach the stove with both hands. Taiwan, busy.

Ye Yaodong sat at the table and watched her spinning back and forth. He was so anxious that he walked over with a smile and picked her up, "I can see it now."

"Hmm, it smells so good, it smells so good~ The instant noodles smell so good~"

These were the words she kept turning over and over in her mouth, and as soon as she heard them, she knew that she was also greedy.

Ye Yaodong touched her bulging belly and said, "Can you still eat it?"

"I'm so hungry~I haven't eaten enough~"

Lin Xiuqing turned around and looked at her funny, "We have just finished eating. You have to speak with your conscience. How can you be so greedy?"

The old lady smiled and said, "What child is not greedy? Give her a small bowl to taste."

The smell of the instant noodles was fragrant and strong. As soon as I put it in the pot and added the seasonings, the aroma immediately spread for thousands of miles. All the children screamed and ran in.

"The instant noodles are ready..."

"Go and wash your hands. You have all eaten. Each of you only has a small bowl. Ayuan hasn't eaten yet."

Ye Chenghu stretched his neck happily and looked into the pot, "We can just drink the soup."

Ye Chengyang also said: "The soup tastes better."

The other children ran in and took a look. They were envious and then ran out to play, pushing and shoving.

Lin Guangyuan sat at the table happily, "I'm so smart. It's so wise to come to my sister-in-law's house. You still have TV at home to watch!"

Ye Chenghu eagerly ran to turn on the TV to show off, "You can watch it at our house as long as you like. We'll watch it while we eat."

Ye Yaodong ignored the noise among them. After eating, he took the cloth bag on the table and called Lin Xiuqing to come into the room and count the money.

"It's time to count money again..."

"Huh? Why do I think you sound unhappy when you say this? There are actually people who don't like counting money, and it's their own money."

Lin Xiuqing laughed, "No way, I just feel that we count money so frequently now. We have to count money every two days. This month, I have been sitting in the room counting money every three to five days."

"Isn't this bad? This means that our family has been making a lot of money. Only when we have enough money can we count the money every day."

"Well, it's a good thing. Let's count them together. I haven't gone to the city to collect the bill for a month. This trip will probably cost seven to eight thousand or more."

Ye Yaodong thought about it, hesitated, and then told her about the filling machine.

Although there is no sign of it yet, it is still necessary to order more large fermentation barrels and prepare them. Now there are more fishing boats, including 17 trawlers alone. Let these boats deliver daily groceries to the workshop. The number is quite a lot.

When several large boats are gradually acquired next year, and the fresh harvest boats are available, the amount of catch sent back and forth will be even more amazing.

We must make preparations early and reserve containers early so that we can keep up with production. The introduction of filling and plastic sealing equipment is also inevitable.

Tell her in advance that it is necessary to prepare early.

Lin Xiuqing was sorting the money and was about to start counting when she heard him talk about this and had to stop and talk first.

"I asked you why you came back late today. What does the bag of ice water look like? I didn't look carefully just now."

"I'll go out and pick one up for you."

He immediately went out, picked up an empty bag of water from the ground at the door, ate it one by one and threw it on the floor.

There were only a dozen or twenty children brought back originally. There were so many children in the house, and one or two children would be given to each person, and the three or two children would be gone.

Lin Xiuqing looked at the plastic bag he had picked up, holding it in his hand and looking back and forth, "It looks like it won't leak, and it's quite thick to the touch. The popsicles are still covered with paper, which is better than Those bags of instant noodles are thick.”

"Yes, it can be filled with ice water, and it can definitely be filled with fish sauce. They are all liquids. If we can get this kind of machine to produce, then it will be easier for us to transport and distribute in the future. We don't need to rely on those big companies." The tanks are prone to damage if they are transported back and forth.”

"And this kind of bagging is also convenient for transporting to distant places. Otherwise, our large-tank transportation can only be done in surrounding towns, and the amount of transportation at one time is limited."

"With this kind of small bag, just pick up a wooden box and it can hold a hundred kilograms. You can keep stacking it up for easy access. Even if there are a few broken ones, you are not afraid. Anyway, we will make a small bag of one kilogram by then. If you install it, it will be much less than if a large tank ruptures and the loss is more than 100 kilograms. "

"And when people come to buy it, they don't have to take a bottle to beat it. They can just take a small bag home, cut it with scissors, and then pour it into the bottle. It's a lot more convenient."

Lin Xiuqing nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and felt that what he said made sense, "It's really convenient to use this kind of small bag to pack one pound per pound. You don't have to go out with the bottle. You can just go to the store and bring 100 pounds." It’s convenient to sell, and vendors can carry it with them on their shoulders. Before, we sold the whole jar in a small shop.”

"That's right."

"How much does this machine cost? Does this kind of bag also cost money?"

"Definitely. I don't know how much it is. I went to ask today and didn't find out. I was even kicked out."

"Ah, we don't sell ice water. We just asked where we bought the machine, and we didn't even tell you?"

"Isn't that right? I went straight to the door and asked the machine and they kicked me out. I told them that I was not a fellow traveler and they ignored me. People probably wouldn't believe me if I said anything in vain. Anyway, it didn't matter for a while. We’re not in such a hurry, let’s ask people first, and we’ll prepare more containers in advance. Anyway, when there are more ships next year, the amount of fermentation will definitely increase, so there’s nothing wrong with preparing in advance.”

"Okay, I'll take a look tomorrow and order more large wooden barrels. The capacity of the wooden barrels is larger. The large water tank only weighs a few hundred kilograms, which is not as good as the large wooden barrels. However, I have to order more large water tanks. Anyway, over there The open space is also large. All the fishing boats are fishing for jellyfish this month, and the remaining tanks are enough, so I didn’t place any more orders.”

"You can order more as you see fit. You can use them anyway. I'll let you know after I ask someone to find out. Anyway, the money we have on hand is more than enough for anything."

Lin Xiuqing gave him a blank look, "You just feel like you have a lot of money and you always want to spend it."

"I just want to spend it in useful places, so that it can be used rationally and become more and more."

Lin Xiuqing looked at him expectantly, "I think we are pretty good as we are now, and we have enough money. You don't have to worry too much. It's quite troublesome to deal with the old man and the stall is too big. "

Ye Yaodong touched her head, with a warm expression on his face, "I only have less than 200,000 yuan on hand. You think it's a lot now, but you won't think it's a lot later. Although we can make money from other things, in our country It is also developing at a rapid pace. It will really not matter in the future, and everything on hand will have to be eliminated.”

"All right."

"Don't worry, I must be messing with something I know. In the past few years, have you seen when I have been unreliable and when have I made you lose money?"

"Okay, then you can figure it out. If you need anything, let me know in advance."

"Well, let's count the money and see if it adds up to 200,000."

"Maybe it's close. I don't count these fragmentary coins now. They are all picked up separately and thrown into the jar. I only count the ones above a few cents. There is no way to count each one so clearly. Anyway, in the ledger Just remember it."

"Um."

Ye Yaodong also sat beside her bed and counted silently, and there were constant laughter and laughter outside the house.

After they counted the money and went out, the old lady had already cleaned up the dishes and washed the dishes, leaving the main room in order.

There were sounds of children shouting and shouting at the door.

"Ayuan, let's go to the workshop to play basketball tomorrow. Uncle San said that playing basketball can help you grow taller. The workshop over there has been empty for the whole month. It's so cool..."

"Yes, yes, I will go to the workshop tomorrow to play. The ground there is flat and there are not so many sand and stones. It is very convenient to play with anything, and you can also make beads."

"It would be nice if it was always empty..."

"No, we can't make any money if our house is empty."

"Then we can go to school to play and bring our skates..."

"Yeah……"

Lin Guangyuan's arrival was welcomed by all the children in the family, and even the neighboring children were especially welcomed. Because they knew that he was coming from the city, they all gathered in front of their homes and made noise.

It wasn't until the parents of each family had finished enjoying the cool weather and went home to go to bed that they called their children back to take a bath and go to bed.

Several members of their family were also called back to take a shower. However, since Lin Guangyuan just came over tonight, Lin Xiuqing did not urge them to go to bed early. Instead, she let them watch TV for a while, and then sent them upstairs after 10 o'clock. sleep.

Ye Yaodong was playing with the fragrant Ye Xiaoxi in his room. After watching her lock the door and window and come in, he said: "Isn't the other room downstairs always empty? There is no dried fish or the smell of salted fish now. Why do we have to do it with three people?" Sleeping together? There is no other bed upstairs, Ayuan is so high. "

"If they want to squeeze together, let them squeeze in. Anyway, there is a bunk on the ground. Whoever falls down at night will sleep on the bunk."

"oh."

Ye Yaodong patted Ye Xiaoxi's butt and said, "Get in."

Ye Xiaoxi laughed and really rolled, rolled twice, put his feet up on the wall, "It's done."

Lin Xiuqing finished taking off her clothes and pants, turned off the light, and crawled to the middle with a smile. She immediately came over and said, "I want to drink neeei..."

"Didn't you just drink malted milk?"

"I still want to eat neeei..."

She went to tease Lin Xiuqing's clothes herself.

Ye Yaodong raised his upper body and looked over, "It's time to stop breastfeeding. She's already so big, and it's not like there's nothing for her to eat."

"I wanted to do it too, but I haven't quit for two days. In the middle of the night, she asked me to pick up my clothes and eat her, several times."

"This way, I'll protect you so she can't bite you."

He said as he put his hand in and took hold of the other one.

Ye Xiaoxi's eyes widened, and he couldn't speak while eating the rations in his mouth, so he reached out to pat his hand.

It just didn't come off after a few pats, so she tried to break it off.

Ye Yaodong raised his head and leaned over to take a look, just in time to meet her round eyes, "One for each person, it's fair."

Ye Xiaoxi continued to slap his hand angrily.

Lin Xiuqing reluctantly pulled his hand down, "Why are you teasing her? Let her sleep."

"Just quit tomorrow."

"No." She bit out vaguely.

Lin Xiuqing patted Ye Yaodong behind her twice and said, "Stop arguing and let her sleep."

Ye Yaodong held her waist, moved down, patted her butt twice and said nothing.

After a long time, Lin Xiuqing lay down straight and pulled down her clothes before asking him, "Is everything going to be okay tomorrow?"

"There's nothing wrong for the time being. There's no need to run out. I can rest at home for two days."

After coaxing the child, it’s time to coax him.

Yuanyuan also belongs to him.

"When will the six newly purchased boats be brought back?"

"I don't know. I've been busy with work in the past two days, so I don't have time to pay attention to this. I just came back and put it in the factory. It must not be that fast. I'll ask Ah Hai to ask me about it when I go to the factory tomorrow. ”

"Today, a lot of people asked me when the new fishing boat I bought will be back, and they all want to rent it."

"Don't agree to it yet, wait until the boat comes back. Anyway, seeing that the fishing boats that followed this trip have made thousands, there is no need to worry about no one wanting it."

Lin Xiuqing watched as her vest was pulled higher and higher, and she slapped his hand away, "Oh, I'm going to sleep."

"I've been absent for a month, and I just came back and you're like this, and I don't even know how distressed you are."

"You're not tired, either?"

"A young man in his 20s, why should I be tired? I can be a groom every night."

Ye Yaodong continued to round and flatten it.

"I counted the money at night and it's over 10,000 yuan, and I gave it all to you. Why don't you show off and be worthy of me working so hard?"

"Fuck you, don't put too much money on your face, this belongs to the shop."

"Okay, fuck your head off!"

Lin Xiuqing bit her lower lip, her face turned red.

…

After finishing all the things, Ye Yaodong rarely had a leisurely time. When he woke up naturally, there were no other children in the house except Ye Xiaoxi.

He also sat leisurely at the door, listening to the radio and enjoying the coolness with the old lady.

The old lady was peeling corn husks in her hands. Some of the unpeeled corns were still crawling with a lot of ants. They all looked like black sesame seeds. Ye Xiaoxi squatted at her feet and fiddled with the ants with a branch. Ants play.

"Where are the brothers?"

"You have to play with me!" Ye Xiaoxi complained aggrievedly.

The old lady smiled and said, "We were all playing over there in the workshop. We ran with them. I just fell down and were picked up by them."

"No wonder."

Ye Yaodong sat at the door for a while, and then went to the workshop to have a look. He heard them shouting and yelling a few dozen meters away.

"You also have a bicycle at home...it's my turn..."

"Stingy guy..."

"Push yours out..."

As soon as he walked in, he saw Laker Ye Cheng hiding under the front bumper, riding his bicycle diagonally, crookedly, and the pedals were only moving back and forth at a 90-degree angle.

However, he did not fall down.

"If I break your bike, I'll beat you to death."

"No dad, you see I can ride it."

Lin Guangyuan ran over immediately, "Sister-in-law, are you awake? Can you teach me how to ride a motorcycle?"

"Dad, I want it too, I also want to learn..."

"Third uncle, can you teach us a lesson?"

No one was staring at the bicycle anymore, they all ran over to look at him eagerly.

"You are too young, too short, and your legs are not long enough to learn. I will teach you when your feet are long enough in a few years."

The reasons are sufficient and sufficient, and everyone can only regret that they are too young.

Lin Guangyuan happily pulled him back home immediately. Ye Yaodong let him play by himself first, "I got up late today. It's too hot. I'll teach you when the sun goes down in the evening."

"Okay, then when will my brother-in-law take me to the town to find Captain Chen?"

"Let's go later. It's working time now. Going there will only disturb others' work."

Neither goal was achieved, and he could only regretfully continue to play with others.

Ye Yaodong sat at the gate when he had nothing to do, chatted with Wang Guangliang and others, and watched these people play by the way.

By the way, I also asked them if anyone at home wants to rent a boat. If so, give them priority. There are quite a lot of boats coming back from this trip. Including boat No. 002, there are 7 boats for rent. It seems that the factory can’t rent any boats. How long will it take to hand in another 003?

If we really get together, we can rent out eight boats together. Renting out all of them will be another income at the end of the month.

No one else was here either. Anyway, they were all mixed together and knew what each of them had in mind. It would not be wrong for him to ask Wang Guangliang directly.

Wang Guangliang directly said that the twins wanted to rent one to their brothers at home, but the others did not have this need. The family farmed and could not go to sea. It would be best if they had other jobs.

Apart from those who go to sea, he doesn't need any manpower here, so he can only say that he will pay attention when the time comes and ask them first if there is any work.

"Ye Yaodong...Ye Yaodong...I have your phone number..."

Ye Yaodong was chatting with them when he heard someone running over and saying they had his phone number, and he immediately stood up.

"Where did you call?"

"The call came from the city. He left his number and asked you to come back. He said he would wait for you in five minutes."

"immediately!"

He quickly ran to the workshop to chase away the children, then rode his bicycle to the village committee.

Called from the city, his first reaction was to ask the vendor yesterday to inquire about the filling equipment, without thinking about other possibilities.

When he went over and looked at the unfamiliar phone number, he didn't expect it to be Ye Yaohai when he called it.

When he heard the voice, he was confused for a moment, and then the other party announced his home address, which surprised him.

"Ah? Big brother? What's the matter?"

"Some time ago, several overseas Chinese returned to my hometown. I also went back and mentioned you to my father. I found that your grandfather was my grandfather's cousin. Then I checked the family tree and confirmed it when I was offering sacrifices to the ancestors."

Ye Yaodong thought about it in a fuzzy way, and then he understood that these were relatives within the fifth degree of mourning. They had the same great grandfather, so they were relatives within the fourth degree of mourning?

"Ah? Like that? What a coincidence?"

"Yes, and then several overseas Chinese donated money to repair the ancestral hall. There may be an ancestral worship activity for the completion of the ancestral hall in two months. My father knew about it and wanted to invite you back. Then those whose names are not on your family tree must also be recorded. Other branch relatives from other places will also come back."

"Oh, okay, I'll convey it to my father later."

The clan ancestral hall activities are a big deal, and it is also a big deal to record names on the family tree. Although his branch is considered to be separated from his grandfather, his father is probably very happy to be able to recognize his ancestors.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Yaodong came out of the village committee with a confused look on his face.

This matter has exceeded his cognition. How could such things happen in his previous life? He didn't know Ye Yaohai in his previous life.

They just stayed in this fishing village honestly, didn't go anywhere, and didn't have the family tree.

Everything has changed in this life. They even have an ancestral hall?

After he came out of the village committee, he went all the way to his hometown, digesting this matter while walking. When he told his father about it, his father was still confused.

"Ah? So we have to recognize our ancestors and return to our roots?"

"It seems to mean so."

"Then we have to talk to your uncles... It's amazing... There are a lot of relatives from the provincial capital?"
