"You called me to spin the shuttle again. Xiaoqing, Xiaohai, and Xiaotao are all sitting there, why don't you shout! Is the boss so easy to bully?" Li Xiaoyang shouted dissatisfied.
"You want to be beaten, don't you?" Sister-in-law Li said and was about to beat him. Zhou Ruonan quickly stopped her, "Xiaohai, take brother and sister home to cut up the melons and eat them. After eating, come and help wind the shuttle thread."
"Oh!" Li Xiaohai grabbed Li Xiaoyang, who was standing there by the neck, "Brother, go home and eat melon."
????????????
Li Xiaozhou and Li Xiaotao also grabbed him, and the children left together.
Sister-in-law Li looked at her son, shook her head and said, "If my Xiaoyang is as obedient as Xiaohai, I will be happy."
"Sister-in-law, don't be too demanding. In fact, Xiaoyang is also very well-behaved."
"Compared to disobedient children, he is not bad."
The four of them were busy until after three o'clock. Seeing that the time was almost up, Zhou Ruonan went to cook corn cobs for the two of them to eat before leaving.
Li Changle and Ah Wei took several children home and sat around the Eight Immortals table. Each of them picked up a corn cob and started to chew on it.
Chen Ah Nai grows waxy corn, which has a low yield but good taste, sweet and chewy.
Li Xiaozhou took a few bites and moved his bulging cheeks like a little hamster, "Abba, our corn is not delicious at all. Why doesn't Grandma grow such delicious corn?"
"This is waxy corn. I like to eat it. I asked my grandmother to help me save some seeds to plant next year."
The Li family has a large population and they also raise some chickens and ducks. They grow high-yielding corn, which tastes good when roasted but a bit rough when cooked.
Chen Yongwei said hurriedly: "My family has planted a lot this year. If you like it, I will break it for you when I come back from the sea."
Li Changle rolled his eyes at him, "Your family only has corn on one piece of land, and even if you break it all off, it won't be enough for my family."
Chen Yongwei knew that he had said the wrong thing and was busy eating corn.
Li Xiaoyang finished chewing a piece of corn and asked enthusiastically: "Uncle Third, are you going to go fishing on the tidal flat today or go to the reef?"
Li Changle was lighting up a cigarette and puffing away the smoke. After hearing this, he laughed and said, "Go to the reef and try our new weapon. Does it work?"
"We want to go too!" Li Xiaoyang said, turning Li Xiaohai around, "Xiaohai, do you want to go too?"
Li Xiaohai nodded, "Abba, we won't run around when we go."
"Abba knows you won't run around." Li Changle reached out and patted his eldest son's head, "It won't work this time. I'll take you there after the typhoon passes."
"Xiaohai, the wind and waves on the beach are very strong during the typhoon. It is not safe for you to go there." Chen Yongwei added.
"Okay!" Li Xiaohai nodded sensibly, and Li Xiaoyang had no choice but to agree.
"Be at home and don't run around. Dad will be back soon." Li Changle stood up with a cigarette in his mouth and started to pack his things.
"I know!" Li Xiaohai went to get the bamboo hat, "Abba, please put on the bamboo hat."
"Good son!" Li Changle happily took it, feeling that his boss was as considerate as his daughter.
Li Changle asked Chen Yongwei to go home and get a pair of trousers, because he had to go into the water to put the plastic tank for catching octopus, and there was no boat to put it in. Wearing wet trousers was not good for the body, and he couldn't go into the water with his butt naked, so he had to go into trouble.
After Chen Yongwei left, Li Changle asked several children to put plastic cans into sacks. He went to pack up long bamboo poles, buckets, and fishing tools and put them into a backpack.
When Chen Yongwei came back, the two of them took the kettles, put on their hats and went out.
When Zhou Ruonan saw him coming out, he worriedly warned: "Ale, if the wind and waves are too big, you should come back quickly."
"Don't worry!" Li Changle smiled at her and waved his hand, "If the storm is not big, we will come back later and prepare a meal for you to eat early."
Zhou Ruonan nodded, "Okay! I'll warm the pot for you."
The two of them carried and carried them up the mountain. They didn't see anyone going up the mountain all the way. When they were approaching the entrance of the cave, they saw Wang Mazi and Lin Changrong walking in front carrying buckets.
Chen Yongwei asked in a low voice: "Brother, why is he walking this way? Why doesn't he go through the pier?"
Li Changle shook his head, "What the hell! The mountain road is not ours. People can walk wherever they like!"
Lin Changrong heard the footsteps, turned his head and saw Li Changle, smiled awkwardly, "Ale, you go fishing too!"
"Yes!" Li Changle responded briefly and led Awei past the two of them towards the cave.
Wang Mazi curled his lips as he looked at the two of them, and said to Lin Changrong: "Look at that Awu egg, now he can only play with that idiot Awei."
"Haha!" Lin Changrong said with a dry laugh, "Forget it, it's not like you don't know A Le's temper. He just goes along with it. He likes to hear nice things and doesn't care if he pisses him off."
"A mad dog, who knows as much as him!" Wang Mazi looked at the two tall men in front of him, and then at the bamboo pole-like Lin Changrong next to him. He really didn't dare to provoke Li Changle.
Li Changle was too lazy to follow him and strode into the cave with Ah Wei.
After the two of them entered, they heard a creepy whistling sound when the wind blew through the air outlet left on the sea side of the cave.
Li Changle approached the air outlet and took a look outside, "Damn it! If a coward walks here alone, he will probably pee in fear."
Chen Yongwei also came up to take a look, followed him and asked: "Brother, have you been to the ghost cave on the back of Yantou Mountain?"
"I didn't dare to go. I heard from people that they saw a long-haired woman sitting at the entrance of the cave combing her hair, and sometimes they heard the hum of a spinning wheel spinning."
Chen Yongwei said in a low voice: "My grandma said that my father passed by the cave before his accident and saw a long-haired woman washing her hair in the pond at the entrance of the cave.
He felt it was unlucky, so he went to the Lord's Hall to worship the Bodhisattva, waited for a long time in the ocean, made a "water head" and worshiped the "Ship Dragon Lord" before going out to sea.
Who knew something would happen in the end? My grandma said that my father was taken away by that water ghost, and the water ghost has to find a substitute every three years."
The fishermen here believe that if there is a boat, there must be a "boat dragon". When fishing at sea, "one water and ocean" represents half a month. Every time a foreign boat crosses a water, a foreign ship must dock and go to the ocean.
Clean the fishing boats, repair or replace the fishing nets, replenish firewood, gasoline, and replenish the food, vegetables, fresh water, etc. on board.
After the rest is over, a new ocean begins. Before going out to sea, you must worship the "Ship Dragon Lord". The fishermen call it "making water head" once every "water ocean", and it will be unstoppable.
There are many taboos among fishermen. Even if you have chosen a day to go to sea through "Shuitou", before going to sea, if you encounter people or objects that are considered unlucky, you must go to sea on a different day.
Li Changle thought about his rebirth and felt that there were some things that should be feared, otherwise no one in the future would say that the end of science is theology.
"Awei, the person your father worries about the most is you. If you live a good life, he will feel relieved."
"Brother, I know."
