Chapter 1367 Departure (updated)(1/3)
There is something extra on his wrist. Ye Yaodong feels awkward and a little unaccustomed to it. From time to time, he rolls the beads and plays with it like the old lady, but he can't chant sutras.
Sometimes I play with it while walking on the road.
"Dongzi, holy shit? Are you wearing Buddhist beads?"
Ah Zheng and Xiao Xiao came towards each other and said.
"Are you a believer in Buddhism?"
Ye Yaodong just walked out of the house and was going to the workshop.
"The sky is full of gods and Buddhas. I don't believe in any of them. Have you packed your things? Packed, don't forget the date of the 13th. We will set off at 4 o'clock in the morning. My mother has looked at the almanac and has already seen the date."
"Is your mother looking at the almanac?"
"What, you look down on my mother?"
"Can your mother know Chinese characters? The almanac is all in traditional Chinese characters!" Xiaoxiao was also very surprised.
"You're kidding! She recognizes 5 words a day, and she even uses an almanac to read them. She may not be able to read a newspaper, but she can read an almanac."
"Fuck, are you so awesome? Everyone in your family is working hard to turn around?"
"I can't help it, my mother wants to make progress too much."
Since she failed to be selected as the March 8th Red Flag Bearer this year, she has worked harder on literacy and worked hard to become stronger.
I heard that we are competing for next year’s March 8th Red Flag Bearer!
"Hahaha, your mother is really quite capable. She is still involved in politics at such a young age. I think she talks in different ways now."
"It's normal. Now that I'm eating from the public, I'll definitely memorize the slogans. Remember it, we'll set off on the 13th."
Then we will stay in Wenzhou for one night on the 14th, and arrive in Zhoushi on the evening of the 15th.
Xiao Xiaodao: "I know. When you said it at the beginning of the month, we already informed our family to pack our luggage. We came back early yesterday and were waiting for the time to set off."
"It's the day after tomorrow. I just want to set off for Vancouver City. It will be evening when we arrive. We will stay one night and then we will take the other fishing boats there in the early morning of the next day and set off again together."
Azheng said: "Well, we are all ready here. As long as the time comes, we will rest at home for the next two days and catch up. It has been several months since we left for this trip."
Xiaoxiao said again: "Now that you have another factory, can you rest assured when you leave?"
"It's good to have my wife here. I've taken her to the factory every day for the past few months. Everyone knows that she is the boss's wife. When I'm not here, she will go there to inspect."
"Your wife is getting more and more capable."
"That's the good wife."
The three of them chatted while walking to the workshop together. They talked about going to Zhoushi along the way. After all, it was the day after tomorrow. They came back yesterday and had only had enough rest now to come over and chat.
"How is the progress of the fishing boat you ordered with the loan?" Ye Yaodong asked.
Xiao Xiao replied: "I just went to see it before I came back yesterday, and I didn't see half of it. I guess I have to wait until the Chinese New Year. "The shipyards in the city are busier and have a lot of business. It would be good to be able to deliver this year."
Ah Zheng said: "Fortunately, we have a boat on hand, so we are not in a hurry."
Xiaoxiao asked again: "How are the five boats you ordered above? How is the land construction going?"
"I haven't gone on board in the past two months. How do I know what's going on? Anyway, five boats were sailing at the same time before. It was said that four smaller boats could be delivered before New Year's Day. The remaining one depends on the situation. I don't know if it can be delivered before the year. Maybe
It has to be overdue, so let’s wait for now.”
"Then the efficiency is not much better."
"There are too many fishing boats in Zhou City. Just repairing boats can fill up the shipyard every day. At that time, I jumped in the queue. I only said that it would be completed at that time. I was not that anxious. As for the land matter, there were appointments every few days.
report,
Although it hasn't been completely covered when we go up there in two days, a layer of it has been built so that we can sleep on the floor."
Ah Zheng said: "It's okay to lay some mats on the floor. It's hot anyway, so a roll of mat is enough."
"Well, just roll it up and you can bury it."
"Ah? Grass——.——"
Ah Zheng was about to carry it over with one kick, but Ye Yaodong quickly jumped to the side.
Xiaoxiao smiled and asked: "Does the rent count when building a floor shop?"
"What's going on? You don't want to pay anymore, and you want nothing to do with lying on my territory?"
"I'll catch some fish for you."
"You little dick, you're so picky--."
"Call me Brother Jian!"
"A few handfuls."
Lin Xiuqing checked his luggage again and again. This time, he only stayed there for half a month compared to the last time. This time he would not be able to come back until at least October.
By that time, the weather will get colder, so you have to take everything you can with you to avoid having to move a second time.
The last time she only brought quilts for five or six people, this time she had to bring more than twenty people. This quilt was recently made by someone else, because most of last year's quilts were put on the Ocean No. 1.
They have to put a bedding on the boat, and they have to prepare a bedding for the workers in the rented place, and it has to be thick in winter.
Now in the yard, the quilts alone are piled up like a hill.
The children at home especially like to press on it these two days, because the quilt inside is so soft and fluffy.
It's very comfortable to press on.
Even the three members of Huimei's family ran into her yard every day and played under the quilt.
Lin Xiuqing took one last inventory of her luggage, making sure that everything she needed to prepare was ready, and she took out as much as she could for him to take with him.
There is even a big bag of all kinds of dried vegetables, and all the inventory at home is taken out and digested to save space.
Not to mention the pickles, there were several jars, either pickled by the old lady, or brought back to her parents' house.
Although her parents went to the city, they were also sent by uncles, aunts, and relatives. The rural areas are very humane.
There is a shortage of fresh ones now.
The old lady was already wielding a hoe.
He was leaving in the early morning, and the old lady wanted to bring him some more food a day in advance.
No, while Lin Xiuqing was checking her luggage, the old lady was already picking up potatoes and taro with a hoe.
"I'll do it later, just sit there."
The old lady didn't even look back, she bent down and waved the small hoe, "I'll come, you go about your business, hoe some taro and potatoes, I can still do it."
"What are you doing? Chenghu, go help Atai hoe the ground."
"Okay, here we come."
Ye Chenghu immediately climbed down from the soft quilt and excitedly went to pick up the hoe in the old lady's hand.
"How can a child like him--don't hoe him to his feet."
"Why not? I was on the ground when I was his age."
The old lady was worried that he was too young and wouldn't let him take it. She only asked him to dig up the taro in the mud.
She took a hoe and turned it over with the roots and soil attached, and then gave it to him to pick up.
The other children were already itching. Seeing Ye Chenghu digging through the soil for taro, they all ran over excitedly to grab it.
Lin Xiuqing saw so many people helping, but she didn't say anything more.
Ye Yaodong had just set sail and returned from refueling and ice. When he saw it, he didn't say anything. He just took the hoe from the old lady's hand and took over the work himself.
It has already passed the point of spring, and now it is the autumnal equinox. It has long passed the point of death of the old lady in her previous life, and he feels relieved.
"These things can be stored and can be eaten for a long time. We have dug the land and hoe them for you to bring. We have no shortage of these dishes at home."
Ye Yaodong waved his hoe, "I don't lack this kind of food either——·
"Who said that? You are prone to acclimatization when you are away from home. You will not feel sick if you eat vegetables grown in your own soil."
"Last year when I went to Wenzhou City, I brought home-made vegetables and ate healthy food. But when I went to Zhou City, you got sick." Lin Xiuqing said, "She even packed a handful of soil in rags for you and tied it up."
.I didn’t know you had traveled so far last year, and I didn’t know you were sick. Today, I specially said that I would bring you a handful of soil from home.”
"Then take it with you."
It was so cold last year, and it snowed again in winter, that it was normal to catch a cold, just give me an intravenous drip for two days.
"I don't know where your father has gone. He doesn't even know where to come to help with the work. He doesn't see anyone except for meals. He only comes here when it's time to eat, so he knows how to eat."
"I just came back from filling up the tank with gas and ice. He said he would go home, check his luggage and come back for dinner later."
Ye Chenghu said: "My grandfather must be worried that A Tai will ask him to pick manure again."
Ye Yaodong laughed, "Do you know all this?"
Ye Chenghu vowed, "For sure, I can't be wrong!"
"Isn't that what it should be? If he doesn't do it, who will?"
