Return to the Small Fishing Village of 1982

Chapter 1127 Go Again

Lin Xiuqing stood at the stairs panting.

"You have nothing to do all day long. You go and take the three of them down to take a bath. I will cook the remaining vegetables and then we will eat."

Ye Yaodong quickly agreed and went upstairs to bring the three down to the old lady.

As soon as the three little ones came down, they quickly hid in the old lady's room, waiting for the old lady to fetch water for them to take a bath. They had just been beaten and did not dare to carry the washbasin to the stove to fetch water.

He went out directly, went to Linji's house to leave a message for his wife, and then went to his hometown to ask his parents to come for dinner.

It has been four days since the typhoon passed. The waves have gradually calmed down. The tide has returned to two high tides and two low tides every day, and the weather has returned to sunny.

On the fifth day, the fishing boats at the dock began to go out to sea to fish normally, and everything seemed to have returned to its original calm.

On this day, the news that other people would return from Zhejiang Province tomorrow spread throughout the village. Everyone said that a golden nest or a silver nest is not as good as one's own doghouse, and it is better to have a safe family than to make more or less money.

At this time, some people couldn't help asking about the people in the town.

It was inevitable to ask about this topic after discussing everyone's return.

"I heard that the family members can visit, but they will not be transferred back. They said that the prison is in other cities. After being sentenced, they will be transferred. They will also be transferred if they are brought back."

"It's so miserable..."

"But I heard that the laborers can be sentenced lightly. They are not the main responsible. It is said that the 10-year and 8-year sentences can be reduced by half."

"That's also miserable..."

"Then those who were originally invited to work will be implicated, and it will probably be a big deal to the boat owners."

"Then there is no way. Boat workers are also high-risk. I heard that after the report was submitted, the higher-ups were furious and wanted to punish them severely. They also wanted to strengthen the management of the coastal waters. I heard that even our side said that some policies on fishing boat management would be issued."

"It's better to come back early. I don't feel at ease outside."

"It's better not to go next year. It's better to earn a living at home."

The whole day, the village returned to this topic from the typhoon topic.

When all the fishing boats came back to the shore, most of the villagers went to the dock to watch the excitement.

It was evening, and they were idle. The fishing boats that went out to sea at the dock also came back, and the villagers were all there.

Ye Yaodong didn't go anywhere. He could see the crowds of people on the dock while sitting at the door of his house. This was not the first time he had seen such a scene, and there was nothing to see. Anyway, his family was not there.

After a while, a large group of people moved to the village again. Their neighbors Zhou Da and his brothers also came back together this time.

He curiously walked to the door to greet people, and they stopped when they saw him.

"Adong, it's better if you come back early."

"We stayed for so many days, but didn't make much more money. We were anxious every day, and we were trapped for 10 days during the typhoon."

"Yeah, I would have come back earlier if I had known..."

Ye Yaodong also smiled and said, "How could I have known so much earlier? Who knew that typhoons would come one after another, and there were only a few days of clear weather in between? I went out to take a chance. If I could predict it, it wouldn't be called a chance."

"Fortunately, I came back safely."

"Let's go home and settle down first, and then talk after dinner."

He nodded, and it was time for dinner at home.

Father Ye was standing by, waiting for the people to leave before speaking, "They stayed for half a month longer than us, and we have to pay half a month's wages more, and it was a typhoon day, it's really not worth it."

"It should be profitable, working four or five days to earn a thousand yuan, how much do workers make a day?"

"That's right, compared to what I earn, wages are really nothing."

4.5 yuan per person, 15 days is only 67.5 yuan, three people only about 200 yuan, how can it be profitable.

"Eat, and then come out and talk to them after dinner."

"They are all back, when are you going to go?"

Ye Yaodong looked at his father as he walked and said, "Do you want to go with me?"

Father Ye was stunned for a moment, "If you go, do I have to go?"

"I'm afraid you have a psychological shadow."

"Nonsense, if there is a psychological shadow, it's your mother who brought it. I didn't do anything, I just went in for a walk, nothing, but she kept talking and asking me to do this and that, not only to worship Mazu, but also to take a bath with mugwort leaves to get rid of bad luck, eat vegetarian food to fulfill my vows, and said that I can come back only because of Mazu's blessing. What she said is not wrong, but why do I have to eat vegetarian food?"

Ye Yaodong looked around, "Where is my mother? Didn't you two go to the dock to watch the excitement together? Why didn't you come back together?"

"Who knows who she followed behind? She will be back soon, don't worry about her, we will eat our own food."

The corners of his mouth twitched, his mother was probably walking with someone and gossiping, and she just followed the other person all the way.

During this time when I came back, the wave of people in the town provided some relief. Soon after, another typhoon came. The villagers had not discussed who was arrested. At most, each family asked about it and knew the situation.

Perhaps because many people were arrested, no one gossiped, and no one was singled out for ridicule. Ye's father walked in the village with his back straight.

Perhaps it was really as he said. If there was any shadow, it should have come from Ye's mother. If there was any ridicule, it would probably be Ye's mother who would say a few words in private. She used to have a sharp tongue.

No wonder his father didn't talk to his mother during this period...

The family had finished most of the meal, and Mother Ye arrived belatedly.

"Ouch? Why do you eat so quickly?"

Father Ye picked up a chopstick of food and said without even looking at her, "You have followed those people home. You feel full after hearing this. What else do you want to eat?"

"While talking, I went up, and I happened to listen to what happened there."

Mother Ye went to load the rice nonchalantly, then sat down and continued: "Do you know? A Guo and the others lost two of their five boats, and the brothers-in-law and cousins ​​they brought over all started making trouble, so the people next door were affected. Zhou Da and his brothers also broke up early together, and it was because they were noisy to come back that other people thought of coming back too. "

"Huh? What did they do?" Ye Yaodong was surprised, thinking it was an agreement.

Mother Ye didn't even eat a morsel of food, so she just sat there and started talking.

"Yes, the two missing ones were their brother-in-law and a cousin. They were just asked to take them with them on this trip. Then four of them were also arrested at that time, and the money for ransom was paid by Asheng. Yes, it’s just that they all put a guarantee on the IOU, which can’t be denied, but they want the public to pay.”

"But other people refused, because no one made any money at that time, so they had to give money. Some were not happy, and if they were caught, they would bear the responsibility themselves. If they were not careful, then they would When there was no work to settle accounts during the typhoon, the commotion started.”

Ye Yaodong asked in confusion: "They didn't say okay when we first released it?"

"I felt embarrassed when I first came out, so no one mentioned it, and they didn't have any accounts to settle, so they didn't mention it. When the weather became sunny in the next few days and I made money for a few days, we happened to encounter a typhoon. They settled the accounts on the day of the typhoon, and then Asheng took advantage of them to pay for the redemption. "

Father Ye said: "It's just pushing and blocking. No one is willing to pay for it..."

Mother Ye patted the table, "Isn't it? When I wanted to come out, I begged grandpa to sue grandma. The words were nicer than anyone else, so I just had to kneel down. Okay, when you come out and you have to pay, you won't I am happy, no one has to pay, and there is push and pull.”

Ye Yaodong was curious, "Did you take it later or not?"

"I didn't take it, because they didn't know clearly whether it was a public expense or an individual expense. Asheng watched them arguing, so he couldn't take it."

Lin Xiuqing suddenly whispered: "Are you going to quarrel on purpose and blame each other, thinking that you can deny it by arguing?"

Ye Yaodong looked at him in surprise and said in his heart: Smart, maybe this is also part of the reason why he deliberately made the noise more fierce.

"Everyone is a worker, and the boss of the boat is responsible for it. If you are the boss of the boat, you will be responsible for it alone. If you are a partnership, the boat will be shared equally. If it is rented out like Dongzi, it must be what was agreed upon at the beginning. People bear everything.”

"Isn't it? It turned out that they said that they were in partnership and earned only enough wages. After the money was divided, they had to bear it personally. After all, the money had been divided, and it was also an IOU signed by them. But the person who made the pledge I refused again and asked them to pay half of it.”

Lin Xiuqing said: "It's really chaotic."

"The main thing is that I haven't made any money. If I make money, I can say anything. If I don't make any money, I have to tighten my grip at all, otherwise it will be a waste of time." Father Ye said honestly.

Ye Yaodong said: "How great is the hope, how great is the disappointment. In the beginning, I had the idea of ​​​​making a lot of money, but in the end I came back feeling disappointed."

After Ye Mu finished speaking, she picked up her chopsticks and said while eating: "Isn't that right? I just heard everyone talking about them, so I delayed a little longer, and then they all said that those who came back late must be I was caught and didn’t make any money, so I couldn’t bear to come back early. If I had made a lot of money, who would be short of the 300 yuan?”

When she said this, she glanced at Father Ye.

Father Ye stared back.

Lin Xiuqing said: "Anyway, whoever signed the pledge will let Brother Asheng go to his house to ask for it. How will they bear the rest of the money? Let them figure it out themselves. Anyway, he will only accept the IOU." . And after all, he was the one who helped bail people out. If you’re not grateful, then you can’t pay back the money. What kind of logic is that?”

Ye Mu nodded, "Yes, that's what he said. He doesn't care who bears the responsibility, as long as he accepts the IOU, it's not easy to ask for it even if he's afraid."

Lin Xiuqing shrugged her shoulders and said nothing more. It was the uncle who owed the money.

Ye Yaodong asked: "Were they not injured this time?"

"Yes, yes, there were fights over jellyfish at sea, but they were not so fierce. After two fights, they ran away quickly and stayed far away to avoid being attacked by them at the same time. Even though no one was killed. ”

"That's enough. There are always conflicts. As long as there is no serious situation, it will be good."

"Also, I heard that they went to the trench before they came back. They said that there was very little traffic there in the early morning. There were not many boats. There were more boats than goods, and they could not last more than an hour or two. They said that they could not survive for an hour or two. In two days, we probably won’t be able to supply that many ships.”

"Then we can only search everywhere on the sea." Ye Yaodong added.

"That's what I said."

Father Ye said: "It's not like you went out and wandered around in vain. In such a short period of time, you can find out everything clearly."

"Aren't you saying that I wander around all day long, have three aunts and six wives, talkative women, and spend all my time raising families here and there?"

"That's right."

"My ears are as erect as a rabbit's, and yet I have the nerve to accuse my aunt and uncle. If you have the ability, don't listen."

"You said it in my ear on purpose. Why don't you tell me not to listen?"

"Did I tell you this?"

"Then you said it in front of me."

"You will never die if you open your mouth and become stubborn..."

"If you're not as powerful as you, you can live or die..."

The two old men were quarreling there, saying something here and there, which directly deviated from the theme of the dinner table, but the others ignored them and let them quarrel, and they started eating on their own.

After the meal, it was getting dark.

By the time Ye Yaodong came out of the shower, the neighbors had already moved stools to sit at the door to enjoy the cool air. Especially the door of the Zhou brothers' house was full of neighbors. Everyone brought their own stools to come and chat.

After reading it, he moved a stool and sat there, listening to them talk about recent events, intending to filter out the ones that would be useful to him.

Although I had already heard his mother talk a lot during the meal, who knows whether she added some extra details to what she pieced together.

"A Dong is here? How much money did you earn on this trip?" Zhou Da asked as soon as he saw him.

"Ah? Me? I don't earn much either. I spent all the money to buy a boat."

"Didn't you see it? They said you bought several boats and came back. You didn't see them when you came back to the shore in the afternoon."

"I stopped at the shipyard. After all, I took it over from someone else. I wanted to repaint it, renovate it, fix it up, and then drive it back."

"Yes, it's necessary to get rid of the bad luck. The boat they bought came directly back. I have to tell them tomorrow. I also have to drive it to the shipyard first and repaint it. Otherwise, people in the town will see it. It's time to make a fuss. Just after dinner, I heard from my wife that the next day after you came back, people from the town came to the door. "

"Yeah, it's a bit dangerous. If someone sees that the boat is in the hands of people in the town, regardless of whether we people in the village bought it with money, they won't be willing to do it and have to come and make a fuss. "

Ye Yaodong casually agreed and asked them about their fishing situation in the past few days. The results were similar to what he had imagined. If it weren't for the typhoon, they would have probably caught all the fish, and there were more and more fishing boats.

"I think I won't have to go next year. The place has been exposed and all the locals know it. I didn't catch up in the past few years. I finally caught up this year, but it's equivalent to not catching up."

The people next to me also echoed, "Yeah, I almost lost all my money. At least I can make some money in the past few days, so it's not a wasted trip."

"You should make a lot of money, you all work together with A Guo and their five ships." Ye Yaopeng asked.

"It's not bad. People who came back earlier and earned enough than you will definitely not be able to compare. But you can still live hand to mouth, which is better than what you have at home."

"That's pretty good, after all, it's only a few days."

"This luck is not bad at all. It's not too bad at all. It's just so-so."

Ye Yaodong said with a smile: "Let's talk about next year. If that area is exposed and we can't work next year, then waiting for the flood season to search and salvage at will on the sea is better than trawling at home."

"The prerequisite is that we don't encounter a typhoon, otherwise the workers' wages alone will be too much to bear."

"That's true. At least you can save labor costs at home."

"Who says it's not the case? At least I made some money in the next few days. Otherwise, I would have lost money and had nothing to do when I came back."

When Ye Yaodong was chatting with someone, someone called his name at the door of his house. He turned his head and heard a second call.

"A Dong..."

"I'm over here."

It's Uncle Zheng, who brought him the keys to his house over there.

"Why did you deliver it right after you got back? You weren't in a hurry."

"I'm afraid I'll lose it. It's idle anyway. It's all back, so I'll send it over and go to Lao Pei's side to settle the accounts. After you've all settled, the only difference is my share."

"Why are you so anxious? You have earned a lot now, and you have bought a local boat. You are probably the one who earns the most among the team coming back today."

"You don't have a conscience when you say this. You are obviously the one who earned the most. At that time, all the small boats were yours. A big boat was towing a bunch of small boats behind it."

Ye Yaodong laughed, and gave him a stool to sit on. Then he went to someone else's house and brought one out, and sat down together to chat.

Then after a while, he invited people into his house for drinking again, and called the Zhou brothers back too. It was more comfortable and more interesting to talk while drinking.

After a drink, I asked them all about everything that happened in the past few days and understood everything in detail.

And waiting for the next day, he also decided to run over again in three days to have a look. In these three days, the trench was probably empty.

But Aguang ran over to him with the child in his arms and told him that the Harvest planned to go to sea tonight and asked him if he wanted to come with him.

"Aren't you going? Let Uncle Pei sail the boat by himself in the near future. I plan to make another trip to Zhejiang Province in two days."

"Salvaging sea urchins?"

"Yes, where are the goods in that den? I feel uncomfortable if I don't catch them all. I always feel that I have lost my money in the sea, and I have to fish it out as much as possible."

"It will be September soon, and when early autumn arrives, the weather will get colder..."

"Isn't there still a month left? There is still more than a month left for me to fish as much as I want. I will come back when the weather gets colder. In total, it will be the same as the previous two trips. I will be back on National Day."

A Guang was envious, "That's true. You are really good at it. Where did you get those two sets of equipment?"

"Hey, I can't tell you this."

"There are really many treasures under the water. You can only see good things at a deeper level. If you have this set of equipment, if you go to deeper seas, won't you have to find a lot of treasures?"

"If you think about it too much, how could you possibly go too deep? The human body's functions can't bear it, and the length of the tube is also limited."

"That's good too. You've earned whatever you should earn and shouldn't."

The two of them were sitting at the door, chatting and blowing in the wind, watching the two little girls playing and laughing in the yard.

Ye Yaodong raised his feet and handed him a cigarette and said: "I plan to tow two boats, one big and one small. Anyway, the No. 2 boat hasn't been rented out yet, so I won't rent it and tow it together. Then I will drive The boat was fishing for sea urchins there, and my father drove the Dongsheng to trawl.”

"Fresh harvest ship..."

"You don't have to stay that long. You can come back in two or three days. Anyway, it's good to be making money. It's better to make less than just idle there."

"Okay, I also want to ask if you are free these two days, so we can go to the provincial capital together."

"Huh?" Ye Yaodong looked at him in surprise, "Why are you going to the provincial capital?"

"Inquire about Captain Chen's hometown. My father was thinking about asking him to be my brother-in-law. From then on, he became interested after drinking at your place twice. I have always wanted to inquire about it, but I can't find the time. Come on, Huimei is now in her confinement, and she is not young anymore. My father is also very anxious, and the younger sister behind her is also 20. Only when Yingqiu is settled can Dongqing be settled. "

"Actually, I think there are some good ones near us..."

"But the age is not suitable. Yingqiu is 23, and most people her age are married. Those older than her are not good at all. Either their family is poor, or they are not good, or their family members have various problems, and they are younger than her. It’s more suitable for Dongqing. My father is really annoyed at this age. Who’s girl is still unmarried?”

Ye Yaodong looked at Ye Xiaoxi who was laughing and pursed his lips tightly.

How old is 23?

She is still a little princess at the age of 30.

"At what age do you think Pei Yu is suitable to get married?"

"What?"

"At what age do you plan to marry your daughter off?"

"Marry with a lot of hair..."

"That's right..."

"Grass!"

Aguang got angry and punched her. Ye Yaodong quickly turned his head and said with a smile: "I was just joking. You are in such a hurry to marry your sister. I just wanted to ask your daughter when you plan to marry."

"Can it be the same? All the girls in the village got married when they were 16 years old, and all the girls her age became mothers, but she got hooked one after another. Now the family either doesn't have money, or they are worried about gossiping, and Worried about having a hard time marrying, or that the man is not good.”

"Yeah, okay."

It's not his sister anyway, so he doesn't argue or care about it.

"I have to go there in a few days, otherwise I will go to the provincial capital with you tomorrow? Do you know where his hometown is?"

By the way, I can also chat with Ye Yaohai. I just got a phone call a few days ago and invited him to worship his ancestors for two months. He doesn't know much about other things, so he can just go and have a look and chat.

Maybe you can also ask about liquid filling machines by the way.

"I know, I'm not at home this month. During the previous typhoon, people came to our village to repair the circuit. When it rained heavily and we couldn't walk, they happened to be hiding near my house. Aunt Ma invited them home to greet them. When they came back I just told my dad and I got a rough idea.”

"Then it's better to choose a different day than to hit the sun. Aren't the Harvest going to the provincial capital at night? Let's go together."

"Okay, then just go there during the day and spend a day asking. If you can't catch the bus, then stay one more night."

"Hmm...hey...Ye Xiaojiu can't play in the mud. Did you forget that he was beaten just yesterday?"

Ye Xiaoxi turned around and said: "Wow wow wow..."

"What the wow wow?"

"Wow wow wow..."

Pei Yu also shouted, "Wow wow wow..."

Ye Yaodong: "?"

He looked at A Guang, who was also confused.

"What are you talking about?"

"It's wow wow wow..."

Two people: "..."

Ye Xiaoxi ignored them and pulled Pei Yu towards the vegetable patch next to them.

Ye Yaodong had no choice but to get up and walk over.

"If you get beaten again later, I won't save you."

"No way, I didn't play in the water."

"Same goes for playing in the mud."

"It's not about playing in the mud, it's about wow wow wow..."

Ye Yaodong held his forehead and said, "Speak more clearly. What are you talking about?"

Ye Xiaoxi ignored him and dug one hole after another, "Go away..."

He had no choice but to move to the side and let her continue digging.

"I dug it!" Ye Xiaoxi excitedly took out a dirty little doll from the soil.

"Huh?"

After she gave the baby to Pei Yu, she continued to dig out the hole, "Is it gone?"

Wasn't it because some girls next door rebelled and called her little dolls, so he asked Ah Qing to buy her two little ones too?

"What's gone?"

"Grow dolls, dad said."

Ye Yaodong opened his mouth and suddenly realized, "Did you just talk about digging up dolls?"

A Guang couldn't help laughing, "Fuck, who can understand this? Digging dolls, wow wow wow... Damn, I've been listening for so long."

"Gone? Where are the dolls? Where are my dolls?"

Pei Yu also squatted there, holding the dirty dolls and looking curiously, "Sister, where are so many dolls?"

Ye Yaodong couldn't stop laughing on his face. He remembered that he seemed to have lied to her a few months ago that you can get a lot of dolls if you plant melons and beans, and you can get a lot of dolls if you plant dolls...

"You have such a good memory? Do you still remember the dolls you planted a few months ago?"

She nodded, ignored him, and just lowered her head and kept digging everywhere, and the mud covered her toes.

"Uh...Where are the dolls? There are no dolls?"

"Hey, did you fertilize? Did you water?"

She looked at him blankly, and then shook her head.

"That's right, when A Tai usually sowed seeds, did you water and fertilize? And it's summer now, not autumn yet, autumn is the harvest season."

"Oh." She seemed to understand.

"Don't dig. You won't be able to plant successfully without fertilizer and water. You won't have a bunch of dolls. Go play. Dad will bring you a bunch of dolls in two days."

"Okay."

She was immediately happy again, but turned around and continued to dig the hole.

"Sister, give it to me, I'll plant more dolls..."

Ye Yaodong stood up and shook his head, asking her to continue planting.

"You lie to children like this every day."

"No, I just said it casually. Who knew she had such a good memory and could remember it for so long, and still thought about digging it out."

The piece in front of them was planted with leeks, which could be eaten and cut all year round, and would grow again after cutting, endlessly, so they would never dig this small piece of land, so what she buried was still there, and she really dug it out again.

"After listening for a long time, it turns out that wawawawa is digging dolls."
