Chapter 118 Just Treat It as a Virtue
Ye Yaodong had only stayed in the new house for a while when he heard the sound of a loudspeaker, playing typhoon precautions from far to near, and reminding fishermen how to take precautions safely.
He walked out from the back of the house and saw someone riding a bicycle not far away. There was a speaker in the basket on the front of the bicycle, playing there.
Secretary Chen is quite efficient and made arrangements early in the morning!
After listening to the loudspeaker playing in a loop in the village, and then walking away from the pier, he felt more relieved. Anyway, he had done his best with his meager efforts. As for the result? Just leave it to fate!

The typhoon came at any time. The sun was still shining brightly in the morning, but in the afternoon it became cloudy and windy. The big tree at the door was blown from side to side and swayed this way and that.
It was raining heavily at night. Ye Yaodong and his wife had not slept peacefully. They got up when they heard the movement outside the house and the sound of water leaking inside.
I pulled the power cord, only to find that the power was out.
He had no choice but to light the candle that had been prepared by the bedside and go outside to get a basin to catch the rainwater.
Lin Xiuqing was a little worried about the new house, "With such a strong wind, we can't go to the new house to have a look, and we don't know if it will leak."
"It doesn't matter, I'll give it a try during this typhoon. If there's a leak, ask the bricklayer to fix it. After all, it's a new job, so I have to help us all get it done."
"Um."
Not knowing how long the impact of this typhoon would last, the two of them sat on the bed and stayed awake all night.
After dawn, they walked out of the room and went to the main room. The whole family was sitting at the table doing nothing. It was still windy outside and they couldn't go anywhere. They could only wait for the typhoon to pass.
It is estimated that around 8:30 in the morning, the wind weakened and was not that strong, but the rain was still heavy.
At noon, when the wind and rain subsided, Father Ye put on his raincoat and went out. He wanted to go to the pier to see how big the waves were, where they were flooded, and whether they would flood the new house. Will it have a big impact on the village?
There was only one coir raincoat in the house. When Father Ye wore it, the others couldn't go out and could only wait at home.
As a result, Father Ye was gone for two hours. When he came back, the rain had almost stopped.
"The new home is fine, and the tide can't reach it. But some people in the village were lucky and didn't sail the boat to a safe harbor. As a result, it was either washed away by the waves, or it was broken into pieces by the waves, and the planks were all floating on the sea. . I heard that two people took the risk to go sailing together in the middle of the night, but they haven't come back yet. The waves are so big right now, and they can't sail out to search, and the shore is now in a mess."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
Mother Ye quickly asked: "The loudspeakers in the village were still broadcasting yesterday, why are they so worried?"
"Who knows, our broken boat is like a treasure. We are afraid of any loss, but those people are still lucky."
Ye Yaodong frowned, two people? It’s really life!
After the rain stopped outside, the villagers ran out one after another. People all over the village were talking about this matter. They all said that if the boat was gone, it would be a disaster, and if their lives were gone, then nothing would really be lost.
….
The two families live next door to each other, and I heard they started crying...
Ye Yaodong was also wandering around the village, with all kinds of chatter in his ears. When he reached the central road of the village, he saw everyone looking at the two people walking downhill from the entrance of the village as if they were ghosts.
"Ah, Da Zhuang and Chen Shan are back alive?"
"It really is!"
"You are so lucky and blessed, Mazu bless you!"
"Why did you just come back? Your family is worried to death. If you don't come back, they will arrange a funeral hall."
"Ah?" The two of them were shocked and trotted back.
The good villagers also followed them. Everyone still didn't know how they came back. How could they miss the gossip?
Ye Yaodong followed curiously and listened at their door before finding out.
It turned out that the wind was too strong at night, beyond their expectations. They didn't want the boat to be parked at the dock, so they made an appointment to go sailing together so they could have company.
Unexpectedly, the wind and waves at sea were several times stronger than those on the shore. They managed to sail the boat into a safe harbor with great difficulty. The wind and rain were so strong at night that they seemed to be blown away. They had no way to get on the boat and had to stay up all night on the boat. We waited until there was no more wind and rain before we went ashore and walked back.
After listening to the process, Ye Yaodong left and went home.
Of course it's best if nothing happens, just treat it as a sign of merit. Who knows if he can be reborn as a blessing accumulated in his previous life?
It didn't take long for the news to spread throughout the village, and everyone said that it was Mazu's blessing that allowed the two of them to come back safely.
Secretary Chen also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he listened to Ye Yaodong's suggestion the day before yesterday. He played the loudspeaker in a loop in the village before pressing it on the pier. Many villagers who heard it temporarily sailed to dock that afternoon, thus avoiding personnel disruptions. Loss, only individual people suffered property losses.
He felt a little better about Ye Yaodong in his heart.
As soon as Ye Yaodong returned home, he tidied up the ground cage nets and made a few more in the past few days. He planned to wait and see tomorrow. If the waves were not so big, he would put them out.
Lin Xiuqing squatted beside him and asked thoughtfully: "The typhoon has stopped. Can we go back to my parents' home tomorrow?"
"There's no rush. When the waves aren't that big tomorrow, I'll put the cage down. There will be more goods after the typhoon. I'll pick up some goods the day after tomorrow. I'll have some seafood to take back to you by then."
She smiled and said: "I took so much last time, and there are still two bottles of cans in the cabinet. Let's just buy moon cakes..."
"The last time is the last time. This time I'm going to give you a Mid-Autumn Festival gift. Just prepare more. Buy moon cakes and make a pig's knuckle. I'll also buy some seafood and bring it over. The preparations will look better and will make you look longer. I I can also hear a few good words.”
After all, this was the first time he visited her parents' house after he was reborn. He felt guilty in his previous life, so of course he had to be more prepared.
"All right."
He valued her family, and of course she was happy.
In the past, she had prepared it with her own money, but he didn't care at all, and people rarely showed up. Most of the time, she went back to her parents' house alone, leaving early in the morning and coming back late, even if she wanted to stay overnight.
Early the next morning, after seeing that the waves had subsided, he and his father went to the shelter and sailed back.
After docking at the pier, he went home to get the ground cage, but on the shore he saw that the beach was full of villagers from his village and the next village, all carrying buckets and happily going to the sea.
He was a little regretful that he had to go out to sea to release the ground cage and didn't have time to follow everyone else. Otherwise, he really wanted to go to the beach and have a look. There must be a lot of goods to pick up.
There is still a big bucket of clams that I picked up a few days ago that has not been eaten. Fortunately, they will not spoil if they are raised in sea water.
I don’t know if there are any treasures on the beach today, or what his wife can pick up.
Return to the small fishing village of 1982.
