Chapter 814 Epilogue

The second day of the tour and prayer was in the opposite direction to the first day, that is, the direction to the town, starting from the nearby Xishan Village.

Yesterday's grand event had been seen by villagers from ten miles and eight nearby villages. Even though there were still many villages that they had not visited, most of them heard the news and came to see the excitement yesterday.

Even so, the number of people on both sides of the road today has not decreased. There are huge crowds of people, and it is more lively than going to the market. Some places may be far away. Some villages only found out yesterday, so they rushed here early this morning. This situation may also happen.

However, when their team entered the village beating gongs and drums, the villagers were not as enthusiastic as yesterday. After all, those who should be excited were already excited yesterday, and those who should kneel down also knelt down yesterday. Today it is just a pure welcome. Look. lively.

Today, everywhere the team passed was still bustling with people. From morning to night, every village gave them a warm welcome.

During the lunch break, there were villagers nearby delivering water and eggs, which made everyone in the parade very happy.

I originally planned to have a harder day the next day, walk from their village to the town, and walk around the main street before coming back, but my plan couldn't keep up with the change.

It can be seen from the enthusiasm of the nearby villagers on the first day that everyone hopes that the Mazu parade and prayer team can stay in the village longer, and the second day is no exception.

So obviously they wanted to shorten their stay the next day and speed up on the road, but until dark, they still could only go as far as the village on the edge of the town.

The team had no choice but to speed up and return the same way. After all, it was already dark.

After returning to Tianhou Palace, Ye Yaodong didn't care how those people discussed how to leave tomorrow. He ate quickly and went home to lie down. His shoulders hurt more today than yesterday.

When Lin Xiuqing rubbed it on him, he grimaced in pain.

"Dad, can you stop screaming~" Ye Chenghu stood at the door of the room and yelled from inside the room.

"Is it affecting your TV viewing? You bastard!"

"Yes, you are an adult, can't you just be patient?"

"Depend on!"

I really want to catch him and beat him up. This is the difference between a little cotton-padded jacket and a bastard.

Lin Xiuqing said to the door: "Just close the door."

"All right."

"Tomorrow, either let dad carry it, and you can carry the flag."

"Oh, I've already lifted it all, but it can't have a beginning and an end? Fortunately, it will only take one day tomorrow."

"Isn't it half a day?"

"It will probably take a day. It will be dark before we can reach the town today. We have been delayed for too long on the road. Every village we pass has to ask us to go in."

"Is that equivalent to going straight to the town tomorrow morning, walking around for a long time and then coming back, then visiting the village and beach in the afternoon, and then it's over?"

Ye Yaodong buried his head in the pillow and spoke in a buzzing voice. He couldn't hear clearly, "Maybe. I guessed that Ban Tiankong would be there tomorrow. Maybe that was the arrangement, right? They were discussing it there at night, and I didn't Listen, come back after dinner."

"Then we have a day tomorrow, so let's ask dad to come."

"Let's see tomorrow."

The mats with tea and grease on his shoulders were everywhere. He slept on his stomach these two nights. Anyway, it made no difference to him. He had been tired for a day, so long as he could touch the pillow, he could sleep.

The third day was exactly as he said. In the morning, he would cruise around the streets of the town for half a day, and then return to the village.

Yesterday, people from some towns also came in to watch the excitement along the way. Knowing that they did not come to their town yesterday, they would come today. Some people stood on the roadside early and looked forward to it.

As soon as the parade and prayer team entered the streets, not only did their team originally arrange firecrackers, but some people on the street also spontaneously bought firecrackers.

Some people even bought fireworks and banged them there in broad daylight, so that they could hear the sound even if they couldn't see the fireworks. Of course, this was only for those with some wealth, and only those with a lot of money were willing to do it.

They all believe in Mazu along the coast, and Mazu is one family. All the people in the town happily welcomed their arrival. It was the first time for everyone to see Mazu parade.

Such a lively scene also blocked the main street of the town. It can be said that the whole town came out to watch the excitement. The houses on both sides of the street and the windows upstairs were also crowded with people.

Ye Yaodong suffered all the way, with beads of sweat dripping from his forehead. Although it was cloudy, the temperature was not low, and there was no wind. It was very hot. After walking all morning, after entering the town, he still had to bump the sedan chair from time to time. , almost exhausted him to death.

After strolling down the main streets of the town, the team walked to the pier to pray for good weather and safety. Of course, they also visited the pier and inspected the seaside.

All the people in the town also followed, sending each other off all the way. The sound of firecrackers and fireworks also accompanied Mazu's parade, resounding through every pier.

By the time they came out of the town, it was already 12 o'clock. In order to rush back to the village, they ignored their lunch break and ate all the cakes while walking.

Father Ye saw that there were no people on the road, so he ran over with a small flag and asked him if he wanted to change it.

Ye Yaodong thought that it wouldn't be long before he returned to the village. There was no rest on the road right now. Everyone was rushing. It would not be appropriate for him to suddenly stop and ask for a replacement. If there was a lunch break, he could also say replacement. One change.

"Forget it, it's okay. It's not easy to stop now. If you keep going, it'll be over in just half a day."

"All right."

Seeing that there was another village ahead, the suona team of the team also started to play, and Father Ye quickly returned to the team.

He changed the bamboo stick from his right shoulder to his left shoulder again, and put a towel to wipe his sweat on his shoulder to cushion it. Ah Qing specially brought it to him today, just to put a cushion on his shoulder, which should also relieve his pain. .

After hurriedly and slowly returning to the village, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It was almost coming to an end. They gritted their teeth and persisted.

Although the villagers in the village have watched the excitement for three days, their enthusiasm has not diminished. When they heard the sound of the team returning from a distance, everyone ran out to greet them.

Their team will also pass by the door of each house and stop every few meters to facilitate the surrounding residents to offer incense.

Therefore, Ye Yaodong also met Lin Jishang, who had not shown up for more than half a year. Seeing his high energy and glowing face, he knew that nothing had happened to him and he was still living a happy life.

Lin Jizhang saw him carrying the sedan in a miserable manner, sweating profusely and looking embarrassed. After finishing the incense, he stood next to him and said hello with a smile.

"I haven't seen you for a while. You seem to be more diligent?"

"Isn't it? Labor is glorious, hard work makes you rich, hard work, and the courage to innovate."

"Indeed, everyone says you are the richest man in our village..."

Ye Yaodong was about to take a break while everyone was offering incense, but when he heard this, he spat out a mouthful of water. Fortunately, Lin Jishang was not standing opposite him. If he had sprayed someone directly in the face, he would be vindictive. What to do?

"Ahem...I am considered the richest man in the world. Don't say this. Although I am a bit thick-skinned, I can't be so shameless. I'm sorry, people call me Xianyudong and Cuttlefish behind my back. Dong, this has become my new name."

In front of this person, how dare he call himself the richest man? It's just that what he does is shady, he hides it tightly and pretends to be poor.

There was a smile in Lin Jishang's eyes, "Why are you nervous? Everyone is praising you. A prodigal son will never be replaced by gold. You are a model of hard work and getting rich..."

"Fuck, it rhymes..."

"Hahaha~ It's really true~"

Lin Jishang couldn't help but laugh now, and Ye Yaodong himself was also amused.

"Where did you get rich recently? Why haven't you seen it?"

"In the city, I run back and forth, pull rickshaws, and earn some hard money."

Pulling a rickshaw?

Ye Yaodong couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, and he was quite good at finding excuses.

"I heard that shoe polishing is quite profitable now..."

"Is that so? I'll learn it some other time. Pulling a rickshaw is too hard."

"Well, tell me next time which bridge you want to set up your stall on, and I'll take care of your business."

"Thank you very much."

"You're welcome, let's get to know each other and do some business, that's all."

"Ah Dong, can you really make money by shining shoes in the city now?"

The villagers who were watching the excitement heard their serious conversation and heard him say that you can make money by shining shoes, so they took it to heart, found an opportunity, and quickly asked.

"Ah? Ah! Yes, you can make money by shining shoes. I see there are many roadside and bridges in the city. You can make money by setting up a small stool."

This question almost confused Ye Yaodong and Lin Jishang.

The two of them were talking nonsense, talking nonsense.

No matter what you say, some people really believe it.

In fact, don’t mention it, shoe polishing is really easy and you can make some money.

"Is that so? Are there many people who shine shoes?"

"There are quite a lot of them, right? Don't all people in the city like to wear leather shoes? So why don't you wipe your leather shoes if they are dirty when walking on the road? Rich bosses are not short of money and are particular about it."

Ask him, how does he know? Every time he goes to the city, he has a purpose, and he doesn't wander around in the city, so he can only talk nonsense.

"Then shoe shining is quite simple... Hey... Ah Shang, when are you going to learn to shine shoes? This is easier than pulling a rickshaw."

Lin Jishang was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.

Ye Yaodong suppressed a smile.

After watching the people around him finish offering incense, he quickly returned to his seat and moved the sedan forward.

Who would have thought that even though they were just talking nonsense, someone would actually fall for it.

Anyway, let Lin Ji worry about it, it’s not like he has to polish his shoes, hahaha~

This episode made him happy, and he didn't feel so uncomfortable anymore. Moreover, after entering the village, he no longer had to carry the sedan chair all the time. He only had to move a little way from time to time to let Mazu pass by the door of each house, which was also convenient for nearby people. Just offer incense to the villagers.

The residents in the village will burn incense first, and then finally carry their sedan chairs to the seaside, and only then will their turn come to those households on the seaside.
