Chapter 1212 Results

Ye Huimei felt that this was all taught by A Guang.

His own father taught him step by step, otherwise how could this kid be so brave?

The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. What does it look like to teach a girl how to catch snakes? It was so scary.

I'll have to scold him when he comes back in two days.

"Where is your father-in-law? We obviously have a big family, but why do you seem to be the only one raising three children?"

"He went to the fields. The weather has gotten warmer recently, so the ground has to be plowed. There has been a lot of rain in the spring, so we have to plant seeds quickly. He is also very busy. He went to the fields as soon as it was light and needed some food. return."

"Oh, that's true. I have to dig through the land at home in the next two days."

"The younger son and daughter that Aunt Ma brought here have all gone to school. The older one followed Aguang out to sea. Isn't Dongqing working at your place now? If you think about it, they all have something to do. I can't take care of it alone. Cooking at home with three children?”

"oh."

No wonder the two nephews eat shit.

"When did you come back?"

"Yesterday, I bought some small toys, and I brought them over today for the three little ones to play with."

"There are a lot of toys at home. Don't buy them next time. It's a waste of money. What can't be bought with this money? These are useless."

"How can this be called useless? Where can we lack childhood toys? Without these toys, your son would have to play with feces and urine every day."

Ye Huimei was about to retort when she heard him say again: "It doesn't cost you any money anyway."

"That's right."

"When will Aunt Ma give birth?"

"It will take about three months, right? It's June in the lunar calendar."

"Then Dongqing waits until she gives birth before seeing anyone else?"

"Absolutely. After the baby is born, it will be easier for people to come to your door, and you will be free to make arrangements. We can see each other for a few months. If possible, we can get married by the end of this year. Why do you ask this? Could it be the same? Are you here to talk about matchmaking?”

Ye Yaodong said helplessly: "Yes, someone asked me to come over and ask a few questions. I thought it was okay to ask, so I came."

"There have been too many people coming to our door in the past few months. Since the Chinese New Year, a large number of people have come to our door to propose marriage to Dongqing. She is now very popular. Someone introduced her to the regular workers of the ice making factory in the town, and The postman in the town and the workers in the slaughterhouse were almost confused. "

Ye Yaodong smacked his mouth, feeling that he couldn't speak anymore. Chen Shi was really at a loss what to do.

Fortunately, Uncle Pei wasn't here either, otherwise he might have been kicked out by Uncle Pei instead of being beaten by A Guang.

Seeing that he suddenly became silent, Ye Huimei asked, "Who are you going to tell her? All your friends seem to be married, right? Don't make any mistakes."

He smiled sarcastically and felt even more embarrassed. Wasn't this a bit of a misunderstanding?

However, luckily she is his own sister, so it won't be a big deal if she just asks her casually.

It's not what he meant anyway, he just wanted to help.

"Someone asked me to come over and ask, but it's not what I meant. Don't scold me."

"Who is it?"

He looked around and then outside the door. No one asked, "Chen Shi?"

"who?"

"Well, the one on my boat who stutters a bit."

Ye Huimei was speechless upon hearing this, "You really dare to say it. Fortunately, you told me, otherwise my father and A Guang would hear it and you wouldn't be allowed to come to our door in the future."

"Haha, a stammer also has the right to pursue happiness. Doesn't this mean that Holly is a heartthrob? Everyone wants to marry her."

After packing up a child, Ye Huimei put it into his arms and asked him to help hold it. She said angrily: "Who doesn't know that most of them are for dowry and our family's rich wealth? At the same time, the little sister has a bad temper. It’s good, you can make money, and you can’t find a good family even with a lantern, so there are not a lot of people who want to marry you.”

"So, it's normal for anyone to like her."

"Then he is also a little bit eager to eat swan meat, and he has no idea. Most people know that they are like this, so how can they dare to ask you to come and tell him?"

"Otherwise, why don't you ask Dongqing secretly? Maybe he has a good impression of Chen Shi and thinks he is honest and reliable? After all, most of the unmarried people in the workshop are glib. Who would like a glib? Chen Shi also has advantages. of."

"No, he has more advantages than others."

"Then he is also tall and tall. He is taller than many people here, and he is also good-looking."

"That doesn't take away from the fact that he stutters."

"It's gotten a lot better. He doesn't stutter like before. If he practices a little more, it might be fine in two years. He keeps talking now and is practicing."

"Then let's wait until we have finished practicing. I can't ask. There are so many good conditions, but you have to ask someone who stutters. What's the purpose of this? People who don't know think that I, my sister-in-law, don't want to see others' kindness."

Ye Yaodong had nothing to say. It was really not easy to say.

Perhaps Chen Shi also realized that there were too many people asking for marriage, and if he didn't give it a try, he would never get another chance.

"Then why don't I wait for Uncle Pei to come over, ask around, and everyone agrees. It's hard to explain without asking personally. By the way, I'd also like to ask with concern, what kind of son-in-law Uncle Pei wants to find."

"Whatever you want, as long as you have the nerve to do it, don't ask me to ask anyway."

"Hey, why did I just agree in such a confused way? Or I'm just too soft-hearted. I could just ask him to find someone else to come and ask."

"Then he doesn't work for you? It's normal for him to ask for your help."

"Well, where is Uncle Pei? I'll go look for him on the ground."

"Just go to the back mountain, go on your own."

Ye Yaodong had no choice but to walk back to the mountain.

Father Pei was digging the ground with a hoe, throwing the weeds aside and piling them up to dry in the sun for a few days, and then burn them later to gain fertilizer.

Seeing Ye Yaodong coming over, he put down his hoe, wiped his sweat, and asked with a smile, "Why are you here in the field? I don't dare to let you work for me."

"Haha, it's okay to do some work. As long as you need it, there will be a lot of men who want to come to your house to help you work."

"What's this about?"

"Isn't it? I heard that after Yingqiu got married, many people came to her door to seek matchmaking in the past few months. Dongqing is already the most sought-after girl in this area. It's not like a lot of young men want to come to your house to marry you. Do you want to work? As long as you say something, it won’t take half a day, and the land will be done for you.”

Father Pei laughed loudly, "That's right, you are also here to tell someone that the matchmaker is here?"

"Nothing can escape my uncle's eyes. You guessed it all without me saying anything. You are so smart. If my father were as smart as you, we three brothers wouldn't have to work so hard."

"Anyway, you three brothers are now among the best in the village. No one in the village knows how capable you are and how lucky your father is."

"I am also entrusted by others. If uncle is not satisfied, just pretend that I didn't say anything."

"During this period, the matchmakers who come to your door include all kinds of people. Some are workers with stable jobs, some have lost their wives, and some are just idle. Anyway, I have seen a lot. What do you think, let me listen to it? Is it suitable? You have to listen before you speak.”

"Hey, what do you think of Chen Shi who works on my boat?"

Father Pei frowned for a moment, "That stutter?"

"Haha..." Ye Yaodong smiled awkwardly and nodded.

"He is very hard-working and willing to work hard, and his character seems to be quite good. However, his parents don't like him very much at home. Although he can make money now, which is a lot better, he still stutters. This is a problem. No, it’s not as good as Chen Qishui on my boat.”

He knew that Chen Qishui was also with Chen Shiwang Guangliang and the others, and he had specially arranged to work on the Harvest.

Thinking about it this way, he is indeed more suitable than Chen Shi. After all, he is right under Father Pei's nose. He knows better what kind of person he is.

And if he becomes a son-in-law, he will become a family. It is of course better to work for his family. It is more reliable than the half-son-in-law and half-son that most people say. This is a real son-in-law.

"If it doesn't work, then it won't work. I'm just asking casually, and you think I didn't say anything. But, uncle, have you looked at Chen Qishui?"

"Hey, I have this idea. After all, I have watched it under my nose for a year or two. It is much more reliable than outsiders, and I understand more."

"I heard from Huimei that some workers from the town come to ask for help, and some of the jobs are very decent."

Father Pei waved his hands and said with disdain: "That's not reliable. Only one job can meet people. I've asked about it. One job has to support a family of more than ten people, and they have to tighten their belts to live. I don't know. Where did you hear that when we marry our daughter, we get a generous dowry and we give her money as well?”

"If you really want such a good job, how about looking for us country people? You already have a good job. Wouldn't it be more respectable to find a worker who also has a job? Even if you don't find a worker, it's easy to find a girl from the town. Where can you find a girl from the town? Want to find the countryside?"

"There must be something wrong with me, so I can only look down. Otherwise, everyone with a job has their eyes on the top of their head, so how can they look down on country people."

Ye Yaodong felt that Pei's father was right. You should not look at the surface of everything. Most of the time, there is only one job that can be done well.

Father Pei continued: "Either you look crooked or crooked. We don't pick what a person looks like. It's hard to find someone who looks like you. But at least you have to be more upright. Some young people Not as tall as a holly."

"Others, either their families are unreliable and careless, or they are widowers or divorced."

"That postman is divorced and has a daughter. The job is good, but can I marry my daughter to a divorced person? As for that? There are so many people in these ten miles and eight towns, and a good young man is not good for me. Are you looking for someone to be a stepmother?"

"Everyone of them is unreliable. I've inquired about them all. I'm not mad to death. They dare to come to your door regardless of what kind of person they are." Father Pei complained to his heart's content.

Ye Yaodong touched his nose and felt that these words also meant something about him.

This old fox is very clever, can calculate well, and can speak well.

"My uncle is right, and he is right in considering it. When choosing a son-in-law for your daughter to marry, you are not buying pork. When buying pork, you have to choose someone who is fat or thin."

"I used to have an embroidered pillow. No one looked up to me. It was just a face. I couldn't ask again and again whose daughter I wanted to marry. I wanted to marry a man to a man, to dress and eat."

"Isn't it easy to inquire about someone around here? Those people are just trying their luck."

"Hard work, good character and good temper are the first priority, but you can't be too shabby. After all, our little girl is not bad either."

Father Pei nodded in agreement.

"So you are already optimistic about Chen Qishui?"

He put his hands on the hoe and started talking to Ye Yaodong.

"To tell you the truth, I'm still waiting and watching. This kid doesn't seem to be that honest, and he's a bit cunning. We still have to look at his character. But don't worry, it also depends on Dongqing's wishes."

"When I look for a son-in-law, I don't expect him to be very capable or have good family conditions. As long as the family members are responsible, the younger generation is hard-working, has good character, and can live a good life."

Ye Yaodong nodded, "That's right. As long as we can live a good life, work hard, and the family members are honest and responsible. After all, getting married is also a matter of two families, not just two people. You also have to look at other people's families. Human character.”

"Yes, your father is hard-working and honest, and your mother is well-known as a capable person in the village. There is no discord among the brothers and sisters-in-law at home, and they are all very capable."

"Getting married to your family is really a good thing that you can't even find in a lantern. It's a big deal for a stupid boy like A Guang. I couldn't even think about it before letting go."

"The three children at home are also suffering. They have not had a mother since they were young. Many things are inconvenient for me as a father. Now that life is getting better, I hope that they can also live well in the rest of their lives. I want to choose carefully now, hoping that I can Pick a good one.”

Ye Yaodong echoed and listened for a while before ending the topic.

"Really, I've told you so much and dragged you here to eat at home at noon?"

"No, food must have been cooked at home. I'll go back and help Huimei take care of the children for a while. I didn't see them for a while, and the two children almost ate shit."

Father Pei chuckled and asked a few more questions. After Ye Yaodong said that, he walked home.

Ye Huimei saw him scraping the mud under his feet on the threshold stone and asked, "What did my father say?"

"He has someone in mind and is currently checking it out. I don't need to bother him."

"Who is it? Why didn't I know?"

"Ask him yourself. It's hard for me to tell him about the fact that his horoscopes are not clear. It would be bad if the news spreads."

"Oh, I thought they had no plans and would wait until the baby was born."

Ye Yaodong looked at the two sisters who were playing with the twins in the cage with toys, walked over and asked Ye Xiaoxi, "Do you want to go home?"

"don't want."

"Then take your sister home?"

"Okay, bring my brother too."

"My brothers eat shit, do you want to take care of them?"

Ye Xiaoxi struggled for a moment and shook his head, "Forget it, I don't want my younger brother."

Ye Huimei was angry, "That's nonsense. Third brother, you always teach bad children. They are just young and ignorant, but they haven't eaten either."

"That's because I was in time, otherwise it would have been in my mouth."

He held one in each hand, preparing to take the two little girls back, and also relieve Ye Huimei's burden, so that she would have one less to watch.

The two little ones will not run around while standing in the cage, and Pei Yu and Ye Xiaoxi will have a companion when they go back.

"Third brother, take that snake back by the way. A Guang is not at home, so you can take it and eat it."

"I don't dare to clean it up, and I won't. I can only speak out, so you should keep it."

"I think if there is no A Guang among your friends, you will have to disperse."

"That can't be done. He's not that important. He will have to leave without the fat man."

It made so much sense that she couldn't refute it.

"Gone."

Ye Yaodong took the two little girls home one by one.

The two little girls were jumping around on the road. When they saw wild flowers on the roadside, they would stop to smell and pick them, and they would stick them in each other's heads.

Even dragonflies will chase butterflies when they see them.

When they got home, they all picked a lot of flowers and were very happy.

Ye Yaodong also looked at the two of them with a smile all the way. Who said that his daughter was not good? Isn't this cuter than a brat?

Two brats can only fight when they get together, but two little girls can catch butterflies, dragonflies, and pick wild flowers when they get together. They giggled all the way, how cute they looked.

The two of them were also good at pleasing people and gave Lin Xiuqing all the wild flowers they picked.

Lin Xiuqing was also smiling, "I picked so many wild flowers, can I make a garland for you?"

Both of them were very excited, "Okay, okay!"

“Weave garlands and bring garlands.”

Lin Xiuqing brought the basket on her knees to the old lady. She was choosing vegetables and planned to stir-fry them for lunch.

"Ah Dong, go pick some willow branches and bring them back. Put the flowers in them so they won't break easily."

"OK."

After the two little girls put on the garlands, they were so happy that they ran out to show off to other children.

While Lin Xiuqing was weaving the wreath, she also asked about the result.

As expected, it didn't catch anyone's attention.

But she didn't expect that their friend would catch Pei's father's eye.

"Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if Wang Guangliang came to you as a matchmaker. After all, this guy is more active and has a brighter mind. I've seen him always getting close to Dongqing before."

"He's not good. He's too lively, and he's also a bit talkative. He's not honest."

"Aren't you the same?"

"It's meaningless for you to say this. Can anyone be as loyal as me? This kid doesn't seem to be a peaceful person. I heard that everyone in the city... looks unreliable."

Lin Xiuqing looked at him confused, "What are you doing in the city?"

"It's nothing. His true nature is more completely exposed outside. For most men, who doesn't know who he is? He is also self-aware."

Lin Xiuqing knew that he wasn't telling the truth, but she didn't hold on to him.

I have no idea what the shortcomings are. I can ask again later.

"Dongqing was also polite to him, and he is also smart. Otherwise, people would have come to ask questions long ago. After all, Dongqing has such good conditions, and those people are all approaching her like wolves."

"A clever one indeed."

Everyone knows whether there is shit on the butt or not.

In the evening, when Chen Shi came to ask, Ye Yaodong also told him the truth, saying that Pei's father already had someone in mind and asked him to change to a big tree.

"There is no grass anywhere in the world, so why should you fall in love with a flower unrequitedly? There should not be many people to introduce you to it. Just find a girl who is similar to your job."

Chen Shi was not disappointed, and just gave a wry smile, "I... know the result, so I just... want to try it. Just try it... and it'll be fine. I'll... save money first."

"Well, save money carefully. There is no need to rush to get married when you are only 20 years old. Save more, marry a wife in two years, and live a good life."

"good."

"She... is a... good girl. As long as she is happy... she will be happy."

"Um."

After Chen Shi went out, he didn't go home. Instead, he went to the workshop to continue working and helping. He was a wise man.

Ye Yaodong also followed him around the workshop, but unexpectedly he met Secretary Chen looking for him.

It turned out that he was notified to go to the party school in the town at 8 a.m. next Monday to participate in political study activities.

He was busy and forgot about it during this period, and almost forgot the party application he submitted some time ago.

"You happen to be at home, but I'm worried that you won't be at home and will miss your political studies. You can't just ask for leave for this."

"Oh, no news for so long, I forgot about it."

"It's not that fast in itself. There has to be a process from submitting the application to receiving it and then approving it. It can't be that fast. You have been approved in less than a month and you have been notified to study. This is already fast. "

"Oh, today is Friday, so I'll remember it and go there in two days."

"Remember, you can't miss class randomly."

"I know. I just came back yesterday. I have to do a lot of digging at home in the past two days. I just didn't go to sea."

"Qingming Festival will be next Saturday, so you should all be at home sweeping graves."

"Well, by the way, Tomb Sweeping Day will be next week. The kelp should be growing well, right? I was busy at home during this period, so I didn't even ask. When I came back yesterday, I passed by the sea base and took a look. , completely dark.”

Speaking of Qingming Festival, he thought that kelp was almost in season.

Before coming back yesterday, I passed by the sea base to take a look. I planned to take time to go to the village committee to inquire today, but was delayed by Chen Shi's matter.

Secretary Chen came to visit at the right time, so he didn't have to make a trip.

When it comes to kelp, Secretary Chen smiles all over his face, "Yes, the two workers said they can harvest it before May Day. Depending on the recent price increase and weather conditions, they say the water flow in our sea area is also suitable for planting."

"I have a lot of free time tomorrow, so I will take some time to go out and take a look and see how long and big the leaves are."

"Okay, anyway, you have your own boat and can go and see it at any time. Recently, many villagers have been going to see it every day. They are all looking forward to it. They all want to see how much the 20-acre base can harvest and how much it can be sold for."

"If this can make money, we can mobilize the villagers to follow suit in the second half of the year. Last year, my son learned how to plant, and he had a lot of free time. It can be said that he worked for half a year and rested for half a year. He was busy with the preliminary preparations. After the seedlings are established, you only need to go out and take care of them occasionally. It is not troublesome at all and the cost is not high. "

That's because we didn't encounter water pollution, typhoons, or bad weather, otherwise it wouldn't be that easy.

There are risks in anything you do, especially in the breeding industry, where money is not that easy to make.

"It would be best if we have a bumper harvest. Everyone can make money along the way. I will also inquire about the receiving price of kelp in a few days and follow the market."

Secretary Chen smiled and nodded, "As long as it can develop, our village can be considered an industry."

Ye Yaodong thought for a while and then said: "I think our village committee can also apply with the county, go to some breeding research bases to study, apply for some species we have here, and see if they can be planted."

He thought for a moment and nodded, "I'll think about it with the village chief later."

"The kelp has already seen some results. We can plant more in the coming year. Villagers who are willing to plant can follow suit, and those who are not willing can continue to wait and see. After all, no one can guarantee what will happen next year. I only tried it once, one year A good harvest doesn’t mean the next year.”

"Yes, anyway, the village committee will definitely expand the planting area next year. By then, it will also be able to collect more spores. From now on, we can grow our own seedlings instead of buying them from outside."

Ye Yaodong nodded without saying anything. This was not something he considered. Anyway, being able to plant it and succeed was enough to prove his merit.

When he was lying in bed at night, he also talked to Ah Qing about joining the party and studying, and about kelp.

"It's a good thing if it can be planted. Otherwise, if you work for a year in vain, the village committee will complain. It feels that you don't know how to pretend to know. Fortunately, it was planted."

"I only said it when I was sure, otherwise I would be too full to hold on? Do you mean to make people mess around? I even sponsored two boats."

"Well, then you can't go to sea these days. You have to go to the county on Monday. I didn't expect that you have to go to the county to study to join the party. How long do you have to study?"

"It is said that there is a one-year inspection period. During this period, political study activities, policy studies, party spirit education, etc. will be carried out many times. I heard that you have to write an ideological education report. If you fail to pass, if you continue to study and pass, you will be officially admitted to the party."

"You still have to write an ideological education report?"

"Yeah, it gives me a headache just thinking about it. I'll have to ask those old guys to help teach me how to write."

"That's not easy. You have to practice your dog-crawling handwriting to avoid being embarrassed in front of people."

"Yeah, damn, then you really have to write like Ye Chenghu."

Ye Yaodong was worried when he thought about it. He kept saying to practice calligraphy, but in fact, he was just talking. He didn't have time to practice calligraphy every day. It would be great if he could write his own name well.

He didn't take the college entrance examination, so why should he write such good characters? Just leave the pain to his son.

Lin Xiuqing was a little gloating, "There are a lot of calligraphy books at home now. Talk to your son tomorrow and ask him to supervise you and let you write with him. He will probably be very happy."

"Hey, sleep."

"What are you sleeping for? I haven't finished asking. What did you say about Wang Guangliang being unreliable during the day and what is he doing in the city?"

"Do you still remember it?"

Ye Yaodong thought he had turned over the past, but he didn't expect her to remember it all the time and keep it to say at night. She can hold it in.

As expected, women are very good at settling accounts after the event. If they don't make trouble on the spot, they will settle accounts together afterwards.

"Of course I remember, he is also working for us, if there is anything wrong, you have to tell me, so that I can have an idea and avoid mistakes."

"Nothing, he just has a common problem among men."

"What?"

"He missed women and couldn't hold it back, so he went a few times with the help of others."

Lin Xiuqing frowned so hard that a fly could be killed.

"How do you know?"

"How can I not know?"

Between men, can this be called a secret?

They gathered together, talking dirty and making faces, who wouldn't know?

Besides, men of this age miss women the most.
