A night without dreams until dawn.
After Ye Yaodong heard the movement next to him early in the morning, he also got up refreshed.
After washing, he stood at the door and twisted his neck and waist, looking at the chickens leisurely catching bugs in the yard, the bored dogs lying on the ground wagging their tails, and the dogs swaying and rushing towards the ground not far away.
The ducks on the beach look peaceful and peaceful at the doorstep in the early morning.
There were also some scattered voices around, and people carrying hoes or spittoons passed by his door. He sighed.
"People these days have a normal schedule."
Unlike in the past, when there were too many entertainment activities, it was hard to sleep, and young people never had a morning.
"Excuse me, don't stand at the gate. The light is blocked for you, and you won't go in to eat."
"A few of the little ones haven't gotten up yet. Let's eat together when they get up."
He felt like the whole family almost never had breakfast together?
Even if he didn't go to sea, he always slept until he woke up naturally at home. He rarely met with his children. Breakfast was almost always cooked at home, and whoever got up ate first. It was rare that they all sat together neatly.
Children eat.
At least he was barely involved.
"Then you go and wake them up. They have to get up to have breakfast and go to school."
"You go call your son, and I'll call my daughter."
Lin Xiuqing gave him a blank look, "Someone who doesn't know thinks that we are divorced, or that we are both married and raising children."
The old lady also glared at him and said, "Whatever you say is not yours."
Ye Yaodong touched his nose and walked straight to the room. The old lady was still talking behind him, "It's not that long ago. Now we have already assigned the children to whom. What are you talking about... I don't know what to do."
speak……"
The little piglet on the bed had already slept on the corner of the bed. He was sleeping soundly, with his clothes lifted up and his belly exposed. His mouth was slightly open and moving slightly.
He couldn't help but smile when he saw it, climbed up on the bed, grabbed her little feet, touched them and kissed them, and then rubbed them on his cheeks.
The little baby's feet are white, tender, soft, and especially easy to touch, and they smell like milk...
But suddenly, the little foot in his hand was a little out of control, and kicked him hard on the nose...
"oh……"
Ye Yaodong let go of his feet and covered his nose, sore tears and snot flowing down unconsciously.
Ye Xiaoxi sat up with a confused look on his face and rubbed his eyes, "Dad? What's wrong with you?"
He stretched out his hand and tapped her head. He endured the pain and said angrily: "Get up."
"Ah! Why are you crying? Dad, why are you crying..."
She came up to him with curiosity on her face to see the tears on his face, and stretched out her little hand to touch it twice, "Are you really crying?"
She said coaxingly with a voice that sounded like she was getting out of bed: "Don't cry anymore, don't cry anymore... Why do you love crying so much..."
Ye Yaodong was so angry and funny that he really wanted to beat her up, but when she heard her coaxing her like a little adult, she felt so cute that she wanted to kiss and touch her.
At this time, Lin Xiuqing also came into the room and said, "Call me kid. Why have you been calling me for a long time? Get up quickly and eat. The porridge is no longer hot."
"Mom, dad is crying, you comfort him..."
"Crying?" She looked at Ye Yaodong in surprise.
Ye Yaodong was still sitting on the edge of the bed, covering his nose with one hand, "I was kicked by your daughter, and it hit my nose."
"I don't……"
"You kicked her while she was sleeping." He looked at Lin Xiuqing. "I just grabbed her feet and wanted to wake her up. She kicked me hard. It hurt me to death and showed me a nosebleed.
Is it done?"
"No, a child can't be so energetic. He didn't have a nosebleed."
"Children are quite energetic..."
Ye Xiaoxi was still at a loss and didn't believe it was him who did it.
Lin Xiuqing took a coat and put it on for her, then picked her up and walked out, "I'm going to eat. I don't have a nosebleed. It will be fine in a while."
Ye Yaodong endured the pain in his nose and went out to eat. The members of the group who ate together as a family lost their sense of happiness in an instant.
Ye Chenghu and Ye Chengyang were chattering, but they could not feel the warm atmosphere of having breakfast together as a whole family. They agreed to go out together to herd sheep, go to school, and go to the school gate together in the evening when school was over.
The two of them winked and winked, knowing that they would not come back obediently.
None of the adults at the table cared about them, as long as they were back after eating.
Ye Yaodong sat there and calmed down for a while, and then started to eat when he felt less sore.
After dinner, he sat there with his father and chatted for a while. He waited until the sun had fully risen and it was 8:30 before he got up and walked to the village committee.
"Where is A Dong going?"
"A Dong, are you really an official?"
"A Dong is very busy. I didn't see him when he came back..."
"A Dong..."
Along the way to the village committee, people kept greeting him with smiles.
His face froze with laughter, but he kept a straight face and just nodded.
"President Ye, you are so serious and look very dignified..."
Ye Yaodong chuckled and said, "Don't laugh at me, Secretary Chen. I only have one name. How dare you call me that."
"I haven't seen you since I've been back for two days. Are you a busy person?"
"Didn't you come over here to report today? I went to the city yesterday to take care of urgent matters first."
He touched his pockets again. Fortunately, he brought back some lighters yesterday and got one for Secretary Chen. Then he put his shoulder on his shoulder and walked in. He also gave one to several cadres of the village committee.
"It's so generous. This thing is very expensive, but the one you brought back is quite cheap. I heard yesterday that you brought a lot of them back, and each one costs several yuan."
"I brought back a lot of them, which happen to be local products, for everyone to play with."
"Thank you, this thing looks high-end..."
"This is much more convenient than a matchbox, and it's decent to hold in your hand..."
All the old faces were smiling and happy.
Ye Yaodong asked them about kelp after greeting them.
They said that they would start picking seedlings in November in about 10 days. The elders just asked about it and did not understand this, so they asked the two workers invited to arrange it, as well as Secretary Chen’s son and two other workers.
A villager, working with help from the front and back.
At this time, they all rowed out to sea in small boats and were making preparations for the sea.
He understood that it was not much different from his own knowledge. Some of the small details were just relatively old, so he didn't go into details. Anyway, the village cadres didn't know about it. He would continue after the others came back.
Just communicate with the workers.
After sitting casually and chatting for a while, he went to call Ye Yaohai.
It just took time to call someone, so he hung up again and sat there waiting for a while before the phone rang.
"Comrade Ye Yaodong? Are you back?"
"Yes, I called you as soon as I came back. Fortunately, I didn't miss the call, otherwise I would have to go to the province to find you."
"I'm much easier to find than you are. You're busy with things, but a free man like me can always find me."
"In other words, I am poor and can only work hard to earn money. If you have something to do, just ask my little brother to do it."
"I'm talking as if I'm some kind of capitalist. Let's not talk about this anymore. The filling machine you asked me to ask about two months ago has been developed. Do you want to introduce a simple semi-automatic one to you? It only costs a few thousand yuan.
It’s not expensive either.”
"Is it so cheap? How many thousand yuan is that? One or two thousand yuan is also several thousand yuan, and eight or nine thousand yuan is also several thousand yuan."
He didn't know whether the price was expensive or cheap. He was a little unsure. He hadn't seen anything and didn't know what it looked like.
"It sounds like it's a simple version. The total travel expenses and other expenses should be only seven or eight thousand. It's not big in size. I heard it's quite easy to do."
"How long will it take?"
"A month or two? If you want it, I'll contact someone to arrange a boat to send it over."
"I'll think about it and call you back tomorrow. I just got back today and there's a lot going on..."
"It doesn't matter. Seven or eight thousand is not a small amount of money. You have to discuss it with your family."
Ye Yaodong asked about ancestor worship again.
"Has the ancestral hall been repaired? In the first two months, you said it would be about two months, but now it has been more than two months."
"It's fixed. The date is half a month from now. I was thinking of calling you a few days ago, but I wasn't sure if you were at home, so I mailed it to you first. I guess I'll have to wait a week for the invitation.
arrive."
"Okay, I'll give you a call when I receive the invitation and set a time to go there."
"Um."
Ye Yaodong said a few more polite words and then hung up.
He thought that before he went to find Ye Yaohai, he also went to find Lin Jishang, but Lin Jishang was not at home and left a message with his wife. When he came back yesterday, he did not hear from Aqing that Lin Jishang came to see him.
I don't know if this person has come back in the past two months. It's really like a dragon that has never seen its end. It's getting harder and harder to see people. I don't know what he is doing.
He planned to go to Lin Jishang to find out first. A few thousand dollars is not a small amount of money, and it would be best to have something to compare with. If not, then let Ye Yaohai arrange it directly, so that he can get it early and put it on the market earlier.
The boat that he and his eldest and second brothers will get by the end of the year. The fish sauce workshop at home will definitely increase the quantity and scale of fermentation in the second half of the year. The quantity that his small trawlers bring back every day can also be put into fermentation in pieces.
.
Next door, Zhou Da and his brothers have also teamed up to build a big boat. They say that in the second half of the year, they can also spend money to collect groceries.
I will take advantage of the New Year to get the machine back and try it out. The existing fish sauce will be packed into bags first. It is estimated that it will be the Chinese New Year before it is fully put into the market.
It just so happened that a warehouse on an open space in the city was being built, and then everything could be moved to the warehouse for stacking. That area was put to good use, otherwise with the increase in production, he would not even have a serious warehouse.
As soon as he hung up the phone, he was already thinking about it over and over again.
Chapter completed!
