MTL - Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982-Chapter 490 old lady looking forward
Chapter 490 The old lady is looking forward to it
After sending the tractor away, Ye Yaodong happily clenched his right hand and gave himself an encouraging gesture.
Ye Yaosheng said enviously: "Dongzi, you made a lot of money this trip, it's because you are bold that you really made a lot of money for you."
The big cousin also said excitedly: "Yes, 520 yuan. I have to earn it for half a year, but you can earn it in one trip. How did you think of collecting jellyfish and dividing it?"
"If you charge a penny, it should only cost about 100 yuan, and you will directly double it by five times, which is a lot." The second cousin also echoed.
Ye Yaodong smiled and said: "I've seen people split before, and I caught it too. I've done it a few times when I'm free. I also heard that there is a flood season here. It happened to happen two days ago, so I had an idea. Fortunately, someone If so, I'm going to bite the bullet and take the risk and send it all the way."
Ye Yaosheng agreed, "Indeed, most people don't think about taking risks, and they have to spend so much money to collect them. The key is to send them all the way. Any of these three can directly persuade people to leave."
"He just loves to toss around. He messed around with things that others couldn't hide in time and didn't want. Fortunately, he met him and sold them for a good price. If this is sent all the way, no one wants it. Let's see what he does. manage."
Father Ye said disgusting words, but the smile on his face was particularly bright, even happier than Ye Yaodong.
Dongzi's luck is really good, just toss this jellyfish casually, and it was sold for a big price.
"What else can I do? Cold salad! If no one really wants it, I can return it as I come, and I'm afraid of being gossiped? If I can't sell it, I can keep it for myself. Just jellyfish blood is enough. Make me feel good."
"Yeah, your mouth is crooked. You dare to keep such an expensive thing for yourself. You want to eat everything all day long, and you can't eat enough."
"You don't want to try it? Such an expensive thing, don't pay for it, don't you regret it?"
"I'm not sorry, do you think I'm you? One bite is like digging out my flesh, which is not worth as much as this." Father Ye said angrily, "Don't be poor, hurry up and collect all these things , take them to the boat, they will be used tomorrow, so don’t sell these fish and shrimps?”
"It's not much, so let's stay and eat by ourselves. After a day and a night of floating at sea, and a day of hunger, everyone can't eat or sleep well."
Ye Yaodong looked at the sun that was about to set over the hills in the sky, and said again: "It's very late today, I'll go to the village to find the village committee to see where I can rent a house? Everyone is tired all day, let's take it later The two fish exchange some vegetarian dishes with the villagers, let's have a good meal and rest at night, and we will continue to go to sea tomorrow."
"The former educated youth camp should be idle, can you go and see if you can rent it?"
"I know, you guys put away your things first, and you can also take off the change of clothes first."
After Ye Yaodong finished speaking, he walked into the village. Luckily, there were still people in the village committee, and they were not exclusive. Knowing that he wanted to rent a house, they rented all the former educated youth spots to him, and even ordered a lot of pots and utensils for him. tableware.
After the educated youth left, they received (divided up) the leftovers from the village committee, and now they just moved them out for their use.
Perfectly solved the problem of accommodation, Ye Yaodong called home again.
Lin Xiuqing waited all day restless, unable to do anything, no longer weaving nets, and too lazy to cook food. Morning, lunch, and evening meals were all eaten casually.
The old lady also sat at the door all day, stretching her neck and looking at the courtyard door, sighing and chanting a few words from time to time.
"It's been a whole day, why haven't you called yet?"
"They should have arrived at noon, right? I don't know if it's inconvenient to eat, where do I sleep at night?"
"The sun is already setting, Dongzi and the others should have arrived long ago, right? Why don't you know how to call back to say something? What's the matter with father and son?"
"Is there anyone watching from the village committee? Is there no one, so I didn't receive the call?"
"Hey, if no one is watching, the call will be missed?"
The more the old lady thought about it, the more likely it was, and she patted her thigh, "My ancestor must have missed the call. Otherwise, it's so late, Dongzi couldn't have called back? That's impossible, I have to go and see."
After she finished talking, she hurriedly raised her feet and walked towards the gate, "I have to go and see, those people from the village committee are too unreliable..."
Lin Xiuqing had just finished coaxing the child to sleep, when she came out, she saw the old lady going to the gate, and hurriedly called her, "It's almost time for dinner, where are you going?"
"I'll go to the village committee to see if there are any calls coming in? It's impossible that there will be no calls all day. It's clearly agreed that I will call back to report safety. I don't know that those people do it every day. Well? I don’t know how to answer the phone, and I don’t know how to call someone.”
The old lady turned her head in response, and then walked out thinking about it.
"I'll just go. You have bad legs and feet, so you just stay at home and watch the house. I'll ask you and come back and tell you, so don't run around."
"That won't work. I have to go and see for myself. What if I don't answer the call? I don't know if he has anything to eat today, and where he sleeps at night? He is away from home, and he can't eat well or sleep well. , I don't know if he can bear it..."
"Dongzi has never suffered much... This is the first time he has traveled far away... Sigh... What a wonderful family..."
The more the old lady thought about it, the more distressed she became, and she moved faster.
She was so patronizing that her heart ached, and the first thing she thought about was him, not the goods. Does anyone want it? Have you sold it yet?
Lin Xiuqing hastily told the elder son who was playing at the back door to let him see the younger sister in the room, and hurriedly chased after her.
She also wants to go to the village committee to see if there are any calls that have not been received. It has been a whole day, and there has been no call, so she has no energy to do anything.
The two brothers Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua also went out to sea to fish at night as usual, but their minds were not on fishing all day long.
Especially Ye Yaohua, who has been distracted all the time, his mind wandering there was too empty, and finally got through when the sun was setting, he hurriedly urged Ye Yaopeng to go back.
Ye Yaopeng had no choice but to return early, and he also wanted to know if his father and the others were safe? Are the jellyfish good for sale over there? what is the price Is there really a flood season?
The two sold good goods, and when they were almost at the door, they saw the old lady and Lin Xiuqing walking towards the village one after the other, so they quickly stopped them and trotted up.
"Where are you going? Did Dad call Dongzi back?"
"No, I don't know what's going on, let's go to the village committee to see if I missed the call?"
"What? The sun is already setting, why haven't you called back yet? Shouldn't you be there at noon?" Ye Yaohua frowned.
Ye Yaopeng was also a little worried, "It's so late, is something wrong?"
"Bah, bah, crow's mouth, what could happen? They must have seen jellyfish floating in the sea as soon as they passed by. The father and son were busy salvaging or selling the goods, so they couldn't spare for a while. Or they called back, The people in the village committee are unreliable, so they missed it." The old lady retorted strongly, and even gave the two brothers a look.
"Let me just say... I didn't say anything bad, maybe something was delayed, or the boat was too long..."
"You'd better stop talking, I'm sorry to hear you talk." The old lady walked forward on her own after she finished speaking dissatisfiedly.
Lin Xiuqing also hurriedly followed.
Just at this moment, someone trotted over and happened to bump into them.
The person came and shouted: "Lin Xiuqing is calling, there is Lin Xiuqing's calling."
The old lady was even more excited than Lin Xiuqing when she heard the words, and quickly grabbed the person's hand and asked, "Is it Dongzi's call? Did Dongzi call?"
"That's right, it's Ye Yaodong's call."
After hearing the affirmative words, Lin Xiuqing ran away.
"Oh, it's a phone call..." The old lady relaxed, and hurried to the village committee after speaking happily.
Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua didn't bother to push the cart back, so they followed the old lady directly.
Lin Xiuqing's cheeks were flushed from running, and her face was covered with sweat. When she arrived at the village committee, she saw that Mother Ye was already answering the phone.
She was scolding her head and face: "It's fine if you're ignorant, your father is also ignorant, and he didn't know to call back earlier, everyone was so worried..."
"Driving so far by sea, I'm afraid that you will get lost and make a mistake, or something will happen, and I won't do anything today, just worry about you..."
"Someone has already called your wife, what's the matter with me saying a few more words? Where's your father? Why are you so busy..."
Lin Xiuqing didn't care to wipe off her sweat, and hurried in, "Mother."
Mother Ye glanced at her, and reluctantly gave her the phone: "Ask him why he didn't call until now? Is there something wrong?"
"Okay... Adong..." Lin Xiuqing picked up the phone, and only then did she have time to touch the sweat on her cheek casually.
She listened to the voice on the phone at the other end, and the more she listened, the happier she became, until she heard that the goods they sent over were sold for 520, her eyes widened and she was dumbfounded with joy.
"520? So much?"
Mother Ye widened her eyes, and said eagerly: "What 520, did the jellyfish that were sent over sell for 520? So much?"
After seeing Lin Xiuqing nodding, she was overjoyed, "It's five times more! Oh, so many, it's really not a waste of time..."
Accompanied by Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua, the old lady left relatively late and came late. When she heard that the number had increased by five times, she hurriedly asked?
"What five times? Call me and let me talk to Dongzi..."
"Dongzi, why did you call back? Did you call back a long time ago, and no one in the village answered it? Did your journey go well? Did you have dinner first when you arrived? Have you eaten at night?"
Ye Yaodong was on the other end of the phone, reporting to the old lady that he was safe again, and after reassuring her, he told her about the situation here.
"Where's my elder brother and second brother? Did they go trawling at night? Are they back?"
"Yes, they just came back, and they are here, right beside you."
