Ye Yaodong took the hammer from her hand and threw it back into the basin, "Really, why are you lying to me?"
"Okay, why did pie fall from the sky all of a sudden?"
"Didn't I say that I will take credit for your son's achievements!"
Mother Ye's face was filled with smiles. At this time, the status of the Women's Federation was very high.
The leader has said that women can hold up half the sky!
Mother Ye happily wiped her wet hands on her body, "You really want me to join the Women's Federation? Then when will I go to work? What should I do? I don't know how to read, what should I do?"
"Go to work tomorrow. As for what to do, just listen to the director of women's work. You can do whatever you are told to do. If you don't have much work, you can still play at home. Anyway, you can get a job."
Second Sister-in-law Ye also said happily: "Mom is so awesome that she can even join the Women's Federation."
"Yes, Mom, the Women's Federation is so powerful. What the Women's Director said..." Sister-in-law Ye's expression changed in the middle of her words, and then she whispered, "Mom, the Women's Federation has not been as glorious as the past few years."
Mother Ye was happy to be patronized. After hearing Sister Ye's reminder, she realized that due to policies in the past few years, the Women's Federation has been feared wherever it goes.
"What are you afraid of? Mom, when you should turn a blind eye, just turn a blind eye. Just don't do immoral things. Making things easier for others is to accumulate virtue and do good."
Ye Mu nodded, "That's right, we can't do immoral things. We must accumulate virtue when we need to."
"Isn't that enough? After all, he is a village cadre and has an iron rice bowl. He is also worthy of happiness."
"Yes, yes, oh my god, I didn't expect that at my age, I can still eat from the public family, but there is smoke coming out of the ancestral graves." After Ye Mu thought about it, she was so happy that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear, "No, I have to
Go talk to your father...make him happy too..."
Ye's father was helping as a laborer nearby. When he heard Ye's mother's excited words, he was so surprised that he almost hit his foot with a big stone. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and jumped back.
"What? What did you say? Are you dreaming, or am I deaf?"
"Oh, hahaha, I didn't expect that at my old age, I can still have public meals. It's really great. No, I have to go back and look for clothes to see if I have anything to wear. I don't want to be embarrassed tomorrow..."
Ye's mother was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth. She ignored Father Ye and just thought about herself and planned to go back to her old house.
Father Ye quickly grabbed her and said, "Hey, you bitch, tell me clearly. Why did you join the Women's Federation? What class are you going to work tomorrow?"
"Don't bother, you can ask Dongzi." Mother Ye slapped Father Ye's hand away and happily planned to go home and look through the closet.
Father Ye looked at Ye Yaodong who was leaning against the wall.
The workers working on the side also pricked up their ears curiously, wanting to hear what was going on?
Ye Yaodong said: "Dad, let's go to the sea. The village committee has assigned us a new job and asked us to go to the sea for inspection. Ma De, we will not be able to go to sea for a few days. The losses will be huge."
"The sun is going down, why are you going to patrol the sea? Also, what's going on with your mother?"
"I'll give you a sweet date with a stick. If you want the donkey to work, you have to make sure it's full."
"What kind of dick stuff are you talking about? Tell me carefully." Father Ye became anxious when he heard him say some unexplained words.
Ye Yaodong walked into the house minding his own business, "I'll tell you as I go."
He was so angry that even though he knew he was in a hurry, he was still showing off. Father Ye followed him impatiently.
"You guys, what's your habit? You don't speak clearly even half of your speech. Don't you know how anxious people are? You talk half-heartedly all day long. Where can I go to listen?"
Ye Yaodong walked with a smile and told his father the whole story. Ye's father was so happy that he also narrowed his eyes and was no longer angry.
"This big cauldron is great for fishing!"
"My suggestions were well made, which solved a major problem for them and allowed the Mazu Temple to be rebuilt."
"The bosses haven't responded yet..."
"I guess we should be sure to discuss it this afternoon, right? It's just a matter of how much money will be approved. Doesn't it make sense that my donation will be commended and rewarded, but Mazu will not? This temple construction will definitely be successful."
"That's good. I didn't expect that your mother could still eat from the public family at her age. It's a pity that she can't read."
"What's so difficult about this? If you want to read the words, are you afraid that you won't be able to read them? Go to a literacy class, or ask her to come over every night and let Ahai teach her how to read a few words."
"Forget it, you are already old. A Hai doesn't even want to study, how can he teach your mother?"
"That's right. That kid may not be able to point and recognize as many words as I do. However, the Women's Federation seems to be conducting literacy classes for women, right? Just let her follow suit."
Father Ye nodded, but couldn't help but look at him a few times, "Why didn't you assign a village official?"
"I think too much. I have just escaped from illiteracy. Not to mention graduating from junior high school and high school, I have not even graduated from elementary school. This is not the 1960s and 1970s. As long as you can read, you can become a village cadre. And I don't want to go to sea? Who has time?
Where do you sit and drink tea every day?"
"Too."
"However, Secretary Chen also arranged a clerical job for Ah Qing in the village committee."
"Ah?" Father Ye was surprised again, "Does your wife also have a share?"
"Definitely. If you don't give me some benefits, who will give him orders? If you don't make a lot of money, tell him where to hunt and patrol the sea area? I didn't go out to sea to fish this day, so the losses will be huge."
"That's right, this day is not a good one for both young and old. I haven't been there for several days recently, and I don't know how many more days I will be delayed in the future. I will make hundreds of dollars less at once."
"Well, let's go. Let's get on the boat first. We will take a walk around later and take back the ground cage. It has been in the sea for three days. If it is not taken back, the goods inside will be damaged. Take it back and put it on the coast.
I don’t know when the salvage team that I applied for will come down, so it would be easier to collect it if we put it closer.”
"Okay, let's take a look around and go back quickly before the sun goes down. I think it will be dark when we get back."
The father and son went to the marked coastal area where bronzes were salvaged. There were actually two boats wandering around, one from the same village and one from the next village. There were quite a few men on the boat, all of them were wet. It was obvious that they were all wet.
I have been in the water, but I don’t know if I can get anything from the bottom.
The father and son went over and hurriedly scolded them, telling them to leave regardless of whether they had caught anything or not, otherwise they would not get any good results from the report. The things on the seabed here have been transferred to the public.
If they are really lucky and can catch something without being discovered, then that is their good fortune, and even if they are discovered, it is none of his business.
It's not his stuff, so he doesn't need to fight with them so conscientiously to take it back and drive them away.
The people on the two boats also knew them and knew that no one was allowed to fish in the water. After scolding the officials a few times, they cooperated and left.
After the two boats had sailed far away, and only a small spot was left, Ye Yaodong set off to the reef, and quickly collected the cage while the sun had not set and the sky was still bright.
There is no doubt that he has to go into the water to rescue him again. With the cage placed on this reef, there will never be a time when he does not need to go into the water to rescue him.
By the time everything was done and we were on our way back, it was already dark.
Originally, he was thinking of going back and putting down cages around the coast, but now he could only give up and wait until tomorrow.
It’s not that short of time, it will be the same when I come out tomorrow morning.
Lin Xiuqing waited at home for a long time when he didn't come back, so she let the children eat first, and then sat at the door to enjoy the cool air while waiting for him. Fortunately, it was a hot day, so she was not afraid of the cold food. However, there were a lot of mosquitoes at the door, and after a while, she
His legs were covered in bites.
Seeing the man in the distance coming back from the dark night wearing a moon and stars, she put her heart back in her stomach.
"My eldest sister-in-law and my second sister-in-law said that you and dad went to patrol the coast. Why didn't you come back until now? It's already past 8 o'clock. I thought something had happened."
"Nothing happened. I just went to collect a ground cage. It was too far away and it took a little time. The fish in the bucket will be cooked later and stored for tomorrow. Otherwise, it will go bad if left overnight. Don't worry about small fish and shrimps.
Throw it out, I want to keep it as fish bait."
"I'll do it later. I'll go wash my hands and eat first. I was worried to death when I was just sitting at the door." Lin Xiuqing took the bucket in his hand and put it on the stove, then went to put rice in the pot.
Ye Yaodong watched her fill two bowls of rice and sat down together to pick up chopsticks, only to realize that she hadn't eaten yet.
"Why don't you eat first? You are breastfeeding now. What if you run out of milk?"
"Why are you so hungry? I drink soup all day long and there is plenty of milk. Eat quickly. Both children have finished eating."
"Don't wait next time. Oh, by the way, remember to take time to report to the village committee every day and sit for a while."
Lin Xiuqing looked confused, "Why should I go to the village committee?"
Ye Yaodong smiled and said: "Secretary Chen has arranged a clerical job for you. Now you just need to punch in and sit for a while every day, and then you can work again after the child is weaned."
"ah?"
Lin Xiuqing's jaw suddenly dropped in shock, and all the beans she held in her hands fell off. She only heard in the afternoon that his mother had joined the Women's Federation, but she didn't expect that she would be included?
"Really? Don't tease me."
"Do I seem to be teasing you?"
"picture!"
He pursed his lower lip angrily and glanced at her, "Secretary Chen said there was a shortage of people, and since you know how to read and graduated from junior high school, I arranged for you to join directly."
"There is such a good thing?" She still couldn't believe it.
"Of course, my relationship with Secretary Chen is not bad! Of course he will think of me when good things happen."
Lin Xiuqing blinked twice, unable to recover, "My dear, then I will become a village cadre?"
"Yes! Are you happy? From now on, you will be a public servant. You no longer have to sit at the gate and weave nets to earn three melons and two dates."
She glanced at him angrily and said, "Idle time is idle. It's okay to weave a net to support the family. Isn't everyone like this?"
"After signing in tomorrow, show the child to the two sisters-in-law. You go buy some pieces of floral cloth and make some beautiful clothes."
"Isn't that all? We have to make clothes first? We have to spend money before we make money."
"Isn't it? Clothes are the face of a person. Forget it at home, you have to dress well when going out. After my mother heard the news in the afternoon, she couldn't wait to go back and look through the wardrobe."
Lin Xiuqing smiled so hard that her eyes were crooked, "Mom is quite impatient."
"How can she be unhappy and not impatient when she is old and can still show off her power? I guess the whole village knows about it now that she has spread it."
"Indeed! If my mother can't read, will anyone tell me?" Lin Xiuqing was a little worried after thinking about it, "And since I don't work, wouldn't it be bad to just receive my salary? Otherwise, I have to wait a few months.
After the child is weaned, should I go to work again so that others won’t say anything about it?”
"Wouldn't the Women's Federation also organize literacy classes for women? Just let her learn from it. As for you who are free of charge... When you go to the village committee tomorrow, ask Secretary Chen. If he says it's okay, it's okay. It should be fine.
He said today that you just need to show your face and sit for a while every day."
"Let me ask first. My family is also building a house now, and I can't leave for a while. Otherwise, I will go there tomorrow to sign a sign and complete the work first, and then tell Secretary Chen that I will go there a few days later."
"That's okay, you can figure it out and ask him first. If you don't want to talk to others, you can wait a few months before going to work."
She nodded happily.
After all, he is a village official, what a rare opportunity.
Will continue with 3 more updates tomorrow
