Chapter 122 Things will get better in the future
Li Changle went home and washed his face. Brother Li and Brother Li came, "How is it? Xiaoyang, have you admitted your mistake?"
"I admit my mistake, but I don't know how many days I can remember it?" Brother Li has no confidence in his two sons. He always beats and scolds him before trying to reason with them, and he can control them for more than half a month at a time.
"Children are like this, and we came here like this when we were children." Brother Li smiled and sat at the table, "Now it's not a good thing, and it hasn't gone astray."
"That's true!" Brother Li sat down, "Where's Anan? Why didn't you see anyone?"
"I went to Axiang's house to make clothes. If I still wear the same clothes when I go back to my parents' house, my mother-in-law should be distressed."
"Your mother-in-law will definitely be happy to go this time."
"It's time to give Ah Nan some face." Brother Li said and patted him. "Abba said that if you don't transfer, they will be embarrassed to see your father-in-law."
"Stop talking, I will find a hole in the ground to crawl into."
"Okay, let's not talk anymore. I just talked with my eldest brother for a while at my father's place. The main thing is that when I came back this time, your second sister-in-law said..."
Brother Li told him everything he could about what Sister-in-law Li had said to him after she came back, and then said, "Also, uncle is sweet-tongued and bitter-hearted.
On the same ship, the boatmen they hired from the north shore all signed one-year contracts, and the wages were higher than ours, and they also went with the flow.
We were still his nephews, and we signed a contract for three years, and the salary was not as high as others. When I came back this time, I originally planned to find a new boat builder.
After dinner, when we went back, your second sister-in-law told me about your Taohai trip and that you were doing things differently now and asked me to come to you for some advice."
He was also very happy in his heart. When he came back from the sea, Azhen looked disgusted when talking about the third child. His parents also said that they were brothers, breaking their bones and connecting their tendons, and told him not to argue with the third child.
He has his parents on one side, his wife on the other, and the third child who doesn't live up to expectations at all. It's hard for him to be caught in the middle.
It's good to be back this time, and I won't have to suffer from splints again.
"My eldest brother asked me, and I told him, make money first, then build a house. It depends on whether you buy a new boat or a second-hand boat. Also, when can you quit your job?"
After listening to what his second brother said, Li Changle felt that his eldest brother was too honest and was being bullied by others. He also felt that quitting his job was not a good idea and wanted to help others until the end of the year.
"We don't have much money in hand, so we plan to jointly buy a second-hand boat, and then we can earn enough money to build a house later. If we save enough money, we won't lose anything by selling the boat and buying a bigger boat."
Brother Li thought that he had been working for more than half a year and could not earn as much as A Le in one day. He also wondered if he was too rigid.
Brother Li took it and said: "The boat is slow and cannot withstand the wind and waves. If it goes too far to the sea, it will take a long time to go back and forth. Once there, it will not be able to cast a few nets. If you are not lucky, you will not even be able to earn back the diesel money."
"We want to go fishing on a nearby deserted island with you. We don't need much diesel to go back and forth. We're lucky and the harvest is pretty good."
"Brother, it would be best for us three brothers to go out to sea together." Li Changle said with a smile, "Let me make it clear in advance that we will not encounter fish schools every time."
Brother Li also laughed, "That's for sure. If we want to encounter fish every time, unless we are the biological sons of Master Hai Long."
"That's right, we don't expect to encounter schools of fish. As long as we can make more money than on a boat, excluding expenses, we will be satisfied. The most important thing is that we don't have to travel far and can take care of our home."
"I used to fish at sea, but I didn't expect that going to a deserted island to fish for sea would be so easy on you."
"Stop praising me, I'm embarrassed to praise you any more." Li Changle said, remembering something, "Brothers Afa also want to join forces to buy second-hand ships. I heard from him that second-hand ships are in very short supply now!"
"Second-hand ships have been in short supply since last year." Brother Li said and asked puzzledly, "Afa is doing a good job as a bamboo craftsman, why do you want to change your career?"
"..." Li Changle told the two of them what Ge Changfa had said.
"There are really more and more plastic household items nowadays. It would be better to change careers as soon as possible."
Brother Li breathed a sigh of relief. He thought Afa wanted to change his career because he was jealous after seeing Li Changle making money online.
"It's hard to buy a boat, and I have no choice. You ask my sister-in-law to go back to her parents' house to find someone to inquire about it."
"Abba said that he asked us to go to Shuiluzhang to find Lao Zhang and ask him to help keep an eye on it." Brother Li said, "I asked your sister-in-law to go back to her parents' house and ask her parents to help find out."
"Then are you going to resign now or wait until you buy a fishing boat and refit it before resigning?"
"They are still deducting one month's salary from us. I originally wanted to wait until we finish this year, but the second brother said that there are many people who want to help the boat. Let's go to the main house to talk to Changgui first."
Brother Li paused for a moment, picked up the teapot, took a few sips, and then said, "If they give us the wages, we will resign and wait at home to buy a boat. If not, we will have to wait until they find someone to replace us."
The monthly salary is more than 90 yuan, which is enough to cover the family's expenses for more than half a year.
"To be honest, even if your sister-in-law doesn't mention buying a boat when I come back this time, I plan to stop doing it after the contract is completed at most."
"Brother, you have a good temper. You still want to work until the contract expires. I can't. I saw Li Changgui being polite to other boatmen and acting shady towards me and my eldest brother. I got angry."
The second brother Li became more and more angry as he talked, "The horse-riding ones came to our house to invite us to help the boat. After we got on the boat, they acted like we were begging for food from him."
"Let's go find him and have a nice talk. If he's still angry, we'll give up the job and ask him to repay us the wages he withheld."
Li Changgui is the second eldest son of Uncle Li's family, and his relationship with the brothers in the second room has always been worse than that of outsiders.
Brother Li: "My father asked me to tell them that his leg is injured and he doesn't want us to go to sea. Uncle, my mother-in-law likes to do things to save face. I think I should be able to get the deducted wages back."
Li Changle thought this was fine, "Then you go find him first, and after you come back and have dinner, we'll go get the jar."
Hearing him talk about the jar, Li Changping and his brothers praised him a few more words. They turned around and saw Father Li standing at the door with a smile on his face. The three brothers quickly stood up.
Li Changle stepped forward to help him, "Abba, why don't you come in when you are here?"
Father Li looked at the three brothers with relief, "Seeing that you are happy, I am also happy in my heart."
Since the brothers were separated, this was the first time I saw the three brothers sitting together and talking happily!
"It's been agreed." Brother Li said, "Abba, An and I will go to the main room to talk about resigning."
Father Li thought of his eldest brother's character and said, "Just do as I teach you. If he doesn't agree, I will go find him."
"I know." Brother Li agreed and followed Li Changan away.
Li's father said to Li Changle: "I didn't tell your brother and the others about the cave. It's up to you to decide whether to tell or not."
"We'll talk about it after I get back from Lucheng."
Li Changle wanted to take those beads to Lucheng to see how much they could be sold for. If the value was high, he would take his eldest and second brothers to the cave to pick out all the oysters.
When the time comes, we will open it to see how many pearls there are. If there are many pearls, the money from the sale will be divided among them. If not, we will give them wages. The oyster meat will be kept to dry and sell the oysters.
"It's up to you." Father Li thought for a while and then said, "Although your brothers have selfish motives after they got married, they are generally very good to you. Now that you are getting better, if you help them, they will remember their feelings."
of."
"I know. The main thing is that people are following me when I go shopping in the past two days. Otherwise, I would carve out Buddha conchs and sell them in restaurants."
Li Changle understood what his father meant. In the past, his family was in trouble, so they took care of his family. Now that his life is getting better, they start to worry about their eldest and second brothers again.
"You are all so nice, so we can rest assured." Father Li patted him on the shoulder, "Your mother-in-law and your sister-in-law have started cooking, and we will eat at your brother's place tonight."
"Yeah!" Li Changle helped him out, thinking that those jars were still at Awei's house, he said hello to his eldest son who was playing outside, and went out towards Chen Yongwei's house.
When I arrived at his house, I saw Grandma Chen knitting a hat on the eaves of the steps, "Grandma, is Ah Wei here?"
"Ah Le, Ah Wei got up after a nap and said he was sending money to Ah. He has been there for a while." Grandma Chen pulled down her flower glasses and looked at him cheerfully, "Is something wrong?"
"It's okay. When he comes back, ask him to put the jar in a sack for use at night."
"Okay, I'll tell him when he comes back. Come in and sit for a while, and I'll pick some melons for you to take back."
"No, Grandma, I'll go to the grove and have a look." She always brought melons. The old man helped eat most of the melons he planted this year.
Li Changle came out of Chen's house and walked to the alley when he met Chen Yongwei, whose lips raised and he walked briskly towards this side, "Did you pick up the banknotes? Or did a girl write you a love letter?"
"Nothing." Chen Yongwei walked up to him and asked thiefly, "Brother, do you remember what happened when you went to the underground cage this morning?"
Li Changle looked at him strangely, "Remember, it's not time to get up the ground cage yet..."
"No!" Chen Yongwei interrupted him, stepped forward and whispered, "Have you forgotten about Wang Mazi? We helped Ah Fa install a dozen cages this morning. I think that turtle will probably do something bad."
"Did you tell Afa that our cage was cut off by Wang Mazi's grandson?"
Chen Yongwei said with a bad smile, "I just said that someone stole the floor cages and told him to be careful. I also told him that a lot of floor cages were stolen from us during the typhoon.
After hearing this, Afa went to find his elder brother, and the two brothers went to the grove to look at the ground cage. From now on, someone will help us catch the two turtle grandsons."
Li Changle looked at him with surprise, "Damn it! How did you think of this?"
"I learned from you!"
"After learning from me like this, you still have the nerve to say it." Li Changle rolled his eyes at him, "We can be seen from the attic window of Wang Laobian's house, and the same can be said for A Biao's house. Have we taken the ground cage to the grove?
The hozen knows everything!"
"..." Chen Yongwei blinked, "Brother, I really didn't expect that."
