Chapter 759: Envy
After entering the office, Ye Yaodong put the things on the table, took away the cloth on the basket, didn't cover it up, took out the two bottles of Moutai, and then poured out the remaining cigarettes from the net pocket.
At that time, the time was hurried, and the shop didn't have that many of the same kind of cigarettes. Anyway, he searched for almost the same price and spent all the money in his pocket.
Seeing that both leaders were there, he was embarrassed to pick up two packs, so he had to put all the rest on the table.
"Hehe, just a little bit of heart, a few pieces of rice cake, two leaders take it back for the family to taste, sweeten the mouth."
Actually, there were still quite a few left. There were more than a dozen rice cakes in the basket. Ah Qing prepared very fully, just afraid that it would not be enough to distribute, making people embarrassed.
He didn't mention the two bottles of wine and the remaining cigarettes. Anyway, he took them out and put them on the table. Those who understand will understand. Let them distribute it themselves. He was embarrassed to divide it for them.
"Little comrade is quite polite, and specially sent it to the border defense station to distribute."
The one who spoke should be the director, full of righteousness, looking quite majestic, estimated to be the legendary official prestige.
"Should be, should be, originally we also customized some pastries in advance. According to custom, we have to distribute them to relatives and friends. The comrades in our station also worked hard, and I definitely have to express it. It's just a few pieces of rice cake, a light gift with heavy affection."
"We will keep the rice cakes in this basket, you take the others back. You fishermen have a hard time saving some money."
"No need, no need, I bought them all, it's too much trouble for me to take them back. Two leaders, please accept them. I didn't buy many, just a little bit of heart. The comrades outside also have them."
"Such a large quantity of cigarettes and wine is not cheap..."
"The two leaders made it convenient for me and left me a boat. Such a large capital has been spent. These are just small money. Leaders, don't be humble, and I didn't buy many, just mean it."
"The rice cakes have been delivered, so I won't delay the two leaders from going to work. You are big leaders, and there must be many things. Don't delay your work because of me, I'll go first."
Ye Yaodong bowed and walked out directly, lest they push back and forth.
He should be considered to know the rules, right?
Anyway, the things have been delivered, and they have been greeted. He didn't expect how much affection they would have for him, at least he showed his face, and could leave a good impression, lest people think he didn't know the rules, got the things, and turned around and left.
After Ye Yaodong went out, he smiled and greeted others. "You worked hard, I won't disturb your work, go back first."
"Good, good, good, Comrade Ye walk slowly."
"Comrade Ye walk slowly."
After receiving the things, compared with the day before yesterday, their attitude was obviously different, their faces had smiles, which is called 'many gifts don't blame'.
After Ye Yaodong went out, he rode back for the first time. At this time, his pockets were empty, and he had no thoughts.
This trip could be considered as returning the simple human favor. As for Director Chen, he had to find an opportunity to go to the county town and thank him properly.
In the past two years, he had run to the city countless times, but he really went to the county town very few times. Except for matching dentures for the old lady, taking Ah Qing for sterilization, and going to the shipyard several times, he basically hadn't wandered around the county town.
In this era, the lively places were only those one or two streets in total, not as lively and convenient as the street in their town, and he was very busy.
After squid fishing was finished, he really had to visit the county town. Ye Yaodong thought about things while riding to his home all the way.
Ah Qing thought he was going to drive the boat out at noon, so she cooked lunch early at 10:30, and he could eat as soon as he came back.
By the way, she also dutifully packed two large portions of rice and dishes in an aluminum lunch box, and let him take them to Ye Fu and the others after the meal.
"Our family's ancestral grave smoked green smoke, so I could marry you. When I go to sweep the grave next year, I have to light two more sticks of incense."
Lin Xiuqing was also a little embarrassed by what he said. "What are you talking about, pulling this for no reason. I put the lunch box in the basket for you, and there is a small basket of tomatoes picked at noon inside. You can eat a few to satisfy your craving when your mouth is itchy."
"Okay, thinking so thoughtfully, tomatoes are fine, sour and sweet can be eaten as fruit, hot weather, eating a little mouth is also comfortable."
Ye Yaodong ate his meal quickly. He was the only one eating there. Ah Qing and the old lady didn't move.
They had to wait for the children to finish school and wait for Ye Mu to come back from work to eat together.
She supported her chin with her hand and smiled: "I thought you liked smoking, and you were busy and didn't have time to smoke. If your mouth is itchy, eat a few tomatoes."
So thoughtful!
"Plant more next year."
The tomatoes planted by their own family are hundreds of times better than those hard, dry, tasteless ones bought outside later.
"You call for planting more of everything, the land in the courtyard is not enough to plant."
"Then plant it on the soil slope at the back door."
Plant the empty land in advance, plant it for a few years, surround it with a fence, and it will be his own in the future. Anyway, it's at the back door, close and convenient.
"Okay, I'll pull the weeds on the soil slope first when I'm free."
The old lady also smiled and said: "Then buy more seeds next time."
"Hmm..."
Ye Yaodong just swallowed a mouthful of rice and drank a few mouthfuls of soup from the soup basin when the eldest cousin came over to wait.
Coming early is not as good as coming by coincidence.
He wiped his mouth casually. "Eldest cousin is here, I'm ready too, have you eaten?"
"Ate, ate, you said you were going out to sea at noon, so I specially ate early at noon and came over. Is there anything to take or move? I'll move it first, you take your time, don't worry."
"It's okay, I'm ready, let's go directly, everything is ready, put on the boat."
He even added diesel, just need people to get on the boat. The flatbed cart was pushed to the pier by his father at night. Anyway, nothing needs to be taken.
No, there is still a basket of tomatoes and a lunch box.
"I'll take it..." The eldest cousin smiled honestly and scrambled to do the work.
"No need, just a basket of things, what's the relationship, I'll just carry it easily."
Ye Yaodong waved his hand at him and walked his own way.
The eldest cousin smiled and rubbed his hands, saying while walking: "The boat you captured really came back so timely. I heard that many people put branches down yesterday, and they all felt that they would definitely be able to catch a lot of squid today. You drive this boat out at noon, and you can immediately get a good start."
"Who says it's accurate? I haven't gone out to see it yet. Wait a while and drive the boat to the small island near the coast to see if there are small boats working, and you will know."
"There should be. You are lucky, the momentum is sufficient, and God is on your side, blessing you."
"Hahaha~"
"You really don't believe it. In the village, seeing your fishing boat drive back one after another in these two days, everyone is spreading it, saying that the new Mazu Temple is built, and you have made a great contribution, so there is Mazu's blessing, and you can have one fishing boat after another."
"Hahahaha~" Ye Yaodong laughed even louder. "It is indeed Mazu's blessing."
"Hehe, everyone says so. The roof tiles will be paved in two days. I heard that there will be a Mazu travel ceremony, patrolling the seaside, protecting one side of peace, and then entering the new temple."
"Should be, moving into a new palace must hold a ceremony."
It just so happened that they walked to the front of the Tianhou Palace. The workers on the roof were still paving tiles. Ten days had passed, and the weather had been good recently, and it was almost finished.
"The weather is good recently, and the work is done fast."
"Don't know when Mazu can be invited back after moving into the new palace."
He looks like he has to invite four statues!
Three boats need three small statues, and another one needs to be invited after the big boat is in hand next year.
"I heard that after Mazu moves into the new palace, she can be invited back, but everyone says it is better to worship for a longer time."
Makes sense!
Ye Yaodong nodded. "It is indeed better to worship for a longer time."
He is not in a hurry at this moment. Only two statues were ordered before, and two more need to be ordered. It is better to worship for a longer time before inviting them to the boat.
"Then the merit monument is also to wait until Mazu moves into the new palace, then lift the red cloth, and then stand at the main entrance."
When the beam was raised, I heard the cadres of the village committee mention it.
"That's what it says. Almost forgot, you are still the first place engraved on the merit monument. When the red cloth is lifted, you will be in the limelight again. If the fellow villagers knew that the merit was so useful, they would definitely scramble to donate more. Burning incense and worshiping can also be more effective than others."
"It is necessary to burn more incense and worship more, blessing the village's villagers to be smooth, auspicious, and make a fortune after the palace is completed this year."
"Then Dongzi, how do you plan for those three boats?" The eldest cousin looked at him expectantly.
Ye Yaodong also reacted. No wonder he pulled him to talk about so much, flattering him in various ways. It turned out that he also had designs on his fishing boat.
"My three brothers plus my father, four people, we plan to temporarily drive one boat each, and invite a few more people at most, and finish the squid fishing season in this period first."
After the squid fishing season is finished, it will be less than two months, and the jellyfish fishing season will also arrive. He plans to run to Zhejiang Province again. Last year everyone tasted the sweetness, and this year everyone will definitely go, and there must be boats in the village that want to follow.
His second boat has been taken to fish for squid with his eldest and second brothers. Under the circumstances that they didn't say they wouldn't do it or the three-person cooperation didn't have conflicts, they definitely have to continue to cooperate.
At that time, the jellyfish fishing season definitely has to continue to be combined, and no matter how it turns, it won't be others' turn, unless his big boat is driven back.
"Hey, good, good, it is indeed so. Your three brothers plus your father, just happen to drive one boat each, just invite people."
"Temporarily it is so planned, whether there are changes later, I don't know now, who can say for sure about the future? Maybe I will have a few more boats later."
"Right, right, if you have needs, call me, our cousins are closer than outsiders, definitely more reliable."
"Hey, good, definitely, our own people are definitely more credible than outsiders."
Don't know if there are others who have designs on his fishing boat, three boats are indeed a lot, the whole village should be envious.
