Chapter 861

Everyone envied the little stutterer, actually being looked upon by Dong Ge, and taken on the boat at night. They didn't have this opportunity.

It was really a fool having a fool's blessing.

Wang Guangliang hesitated for a while, and couldn't help asking: "Dong Ge, how many days are you going out to sea? Do you need people for these few days?"

Everyone instantly burst out with hopeful light. If it was for a few more days, would they also have a chance?

"Two or three days, three or four days, four or five days are all possible. Look at the weather. If the weather is good and can go out to sea, then of course go out for a few more days."

Still have to see when his daddy comes back. If his daddy comes back, he won't need them.

"Then if little stutterer goes continuously, he will also be tired. After all, he is a newcomer, so take turns changing us?"

"No no no no no no won't be tired tired tired tired..."

"Talk about it tomorrow. Have the firewood outside been moved? If moved, you guys also go back to rest early. Stayed up all night last night, went up the mountain to cut firewood today, tired, sleep early at night."

"Do you want us to go toss them again at night? Not easy to toss women, we can continue to splash feces!"

"You guys don't find it smelly, don't find it disgusting?" Ye Yaodong couldn't stand it just thinking about it, still have to go to the toilet and scoop it up one spoon by one spoon.

"Smelly, just cover the nose and tie it up, anyway, go to the toilet every day and see it often. We scoop the feces pit, and can also prevent it from overflowing..."

"Stop stop stop stop stop, don't describe it so disgustingly. No need at night. Tossing them twice in a row last night, estimated they are also afraid. They should be vigilant at night. In case they take turns squatting there to guard, just to catch you, and you are caught right, that wouldn't be good."

"Also right, then forget it for now, talk about it in a few days, wait until they relax their vigilance and then toss them."

He was too lazy to care after beating them once. They were quite persistent.

"Whatever you guys, don't toss if you find it troublesome and disgusting. Anyway, the man has been beaten until he can't get out of bed, and the woman has been tossed for several nights, it's enough."

"Good good good, Dong Ge is too easy to talk to."

"Right, that woman anonymously reported you, should mess with her."

"Don't mess around, what mess or not mess, be careful of hooliganism. What's more, it's a friend's wife, just like that. Anyway, the whole village knows she did it, that's enough."

"Good, then we move these firewood first."

Ye Mu actually disliked him finding a stutterer. With so many people, hands and feet are good, but he had to find a stutterer. Look at that laborious way of speaking, it's uncomfortable to listen to, but it's free, so that's it, can't be too picky.

Seeing they finished talking, she smiled and greeted them first, "Eat watermelon first, eat watermelon and then work..."

"No need, not much, two people hold a handful each, just didn't bring rope, otherwise tie it up, no need to be so loose."

"Then others eat first, trouble you guys, tossed people all night, and didn't get anything yourself."

"Hehe, still okay, we have energy nowhere to use..."

After they piled the firewood well, each took a piece of watermelon, took advantage of no one, greeted, and left first.

Ye Yaodong locked the door directly. Anyway, his mother had to watch TV here, and wouldn't go back until ten o'clock. A bunch of children in the house were watching with fascination, and wouldn't leave if the TV wasn't turned off.

"Why did you pick a stutterer? Look at his laborious way of speaking, aren't you uncomfortable."

"What's the relationship, I called him to work, not to chat. It's enough to understand human words."

"Whatever you want, anyway it's already said, and don't need money. If it can be changed tomorrow, then change to someone else..."

Suddenly, Ye Mu slapped her own forehead!

"Forgot to say, can call them to work at the workshop tomorrow. Didn't they just regret you picked the stutterer and didn't pick them? Anyway, that side will be finished in two or three days, so many people go over, estimated it can be finished in one day."

"Mom, you can really think, really can arrange! Where can you really not give money? Too able to take advantage, this work is so hard, where can you order people around randomly."

"They said themselves they don't want money, where is it that I think about taking advantage."

"Then you don't think about taking advantage, why did you push my uncle away, directly agree, let me look for them."

Ye Mu was also a bit short of breath, rarely unreasonable, not straight, not strong, "This... this don't want for nothing, don't want money they also scramble to do, and it's not that I actively called them."

"Then you can't feel at ease letting people work for nothing."

"Then... then you look at it and give a little... anyway, the age is not big, this work is divided into master masters and small workers."

"Alright, you go to my uncle's side and decline first, I have a count in my heart."

After Ye Yaodong finished speaking, he intended to go into the house, but Ye Mu pulled him.

"Wait, I haven't asked you yet, why are they so active? Still scrambling to work, even wages don't want, a bit strange, where are there such stupid people."

"Because I am Salty Fish Dong!" He said proudly, "Don't you know that ten miles and eight villages all know my name?"

"This has what relationship with those teenagers scrambling to work?"

"Because they know my name, know I can earn money, and the family foundation is thick. If they follow me to work, it definitely won't be wrong. Maybe I can lead them to get rich?"

"Anyway, they are also idle, doing nothing, no work to do, better than pestering behind me, see if they can mix out a human shape."

"Anyway, it's at most spending some time, and spending some thought. What they lack most is time. Fight, bicycle becomes motorcycle, motorcycle becomes Alto, Alto becomes Audi."

Ye Mu frowned and looked at him, feeling that these words were quite reasonable, but, "When did you become so powerful, still able to lead people to get rich? Are they blind? If you want to lead, definitely lead your own family first, lead them outsiders for what? Brain is not pasted with shit."

"My own family also has to be willing to follow me to do, listen to me. Eldest brother and second brother each can open a boat now, still can follow me to do what? Do their own things, isn't it good?"

"What's more, can I order eldest brother, second brother, or cousin to go splash feces, or can I order them to go beat people? Is this appropriate? Definitely have to find these people to do it. This is appropriate."

What was said was quite reasonable. Of course, bad things have to be done by others. Where can you let your own people do it? In case they are caught, there is no face, Ye Mu didn't refute either.

"Then what wealth can you lead them to get?"

"Where do I know? If I can lead them to get rich, don't I have to get rich myself first? I am a fisherman, praying to Goddess Mazu every day, praying to the God of Wealth, praying to Guanyin Bodhisattva."

"And when did I say I want to lead them to get rich? It's them who think I might be able to lead them to get rich, it's them who want to fight, gamble."

"We just watch like this. If there is a need, call them. If there is no need, let them do whatever they want. Anyway, we don't order them for nothing."

Ye Mu instantly felt relieved. "Alright, then you look at it. Are they all from nearby villages?"

"Hmm right."

"What are their names? I'll inquire tomorrow to see, knowing the roots and the bottom will be better."

"Don't know, I just know one is Wang Guangliang from Daqingshan Village, that stutterer is his childhood friend, estimated a few are all from Daqingshan Village."

"Alright, I'll see when there is a nearby village, and pay attention to it then. This stutterer is definitely easy to find."

After Ye Yaodong finished talking to his mother, he entered the house.

Lin Xiuqing was fascinated by the TV series. She stood at the door for a while just now, heard a few sentences, and then entered the house directly to continue watching.

The magic of the TV series was full. She felt uncomfortable if she didn't watch it for a whole day. No, she felt uncomfortable if she didn't watch it for half a day.

Sitting in front of the TV every day, she didn't want to move her butt at all. She wanted to go to the toilet but held it, until she couldn't hold it anymore, then hurriedly went to the toilet and came back, wishing her eyes were stuck to the TV.

The children just started summer vacation, and had been suffocated for a long time. They didn't stick to the TV so much. If they weren't allowed to watch during the day, they would run out to play, go up the mountain and down the sea, not to mention how free and fun it was.

Ye Yaodong didn't disturb them either, went into the house to sleep directly, just accompanied the children to take a nap at noon, and wasn't sleepy at all now, couldn't sleep even if he wanted to.

He had to close his eyes and rest, thinking about those teenagers at night.

As for why he chose that stutterer and didn't choose Wang Guangliang, it was because he felt Wang Guangliang was too active, so he had to suppress him first.

Although this person looked like his character should be okay, being able to protect a childhood friend like little stutterer, he shouldn't be someone who loves to bully the weak, and also had some bottom line.

And the one who stuttered when speaking, he saw the gratitude in his eyes just now. If he kept him to work first, he would definitely work very hard tomorrow.

This person was simple, because of growth defects, the growth experience must be bad, treat him well, he will definitely be loyal in the future.

People now are also simple, brain is one-track, especially teenagers, hot-blooded and loyal.

He didn't dislike it either, and even felt it was quite fun. Although listening to him speak was laborious, he could occasionally listen to it as a fun.

Thinking of him saying a word for more than ten times, he couldn't help laughing out loud. It turned out there were such people nearby. With age difference, not peers, no wonder he didn't know.

Didn't find it a few days ago, it should be that Wang Guangliang and the others didn't let him speak, to avoid being annoying.

Lin Xiuqing pushed the door and came in, looking at the pitch-black room. "You haven't slept yet?"

"Why?"

"Heard your laughter, so I came in to see. What did you do? Still hiding in the room and laughing secretly?"

"Hahaha, still a bit funny, I I I I I I I with with with with with you you you you say..."

"Speak well, why deliberately tongue-tied like this?"

"It's that there was a big stutterer among the teenagers who came over at night. That way of speaking was too funny. A word could be said more than ten times and still couldn't be said. His friends were disgusted by him."

Right, it was a big stutterer, stuttering so severely, it should be a big stutterer.

"What's so funny about this?"

"That's because you didn't see it with your own ears. The way they spoke just now, my mother was stunned."

"Alright, then sleep early." Lin Xiuqing didn't hear it with her own ears, and wasn't interested at all.

Ye Yaodong had to give up, wait until tomorrow to let her listen, and she would know.

The night was dark and the wind was high, only the light circles of flashlights were shining outside the pier.

When Ye Yaodong walked to the pier, he saw little stutterer standing in the corner looking around. The villagers coming and going, seeing a strange face, all glanced at him suspiciously.

Some even went up to ask which village he was from, but saw him closing his mouth and not saying a word, then moved to the side.

Later, seeing him walk over, he hurriedly ran up. "Dongdong Dongdong Dong Ge..."

"Arrived quite early."

He nodded.

"Let's go, follow me to carry a few buckets of diesel first."

People around saw that the stutterer was waiting for him, and asked a few words. Ye Yaodong just casually dealt with it, saying he was just invited to help.

He only carried two buckets of diesel for his own boat. The boat that Ah Sheng and the eldest cousin were temporarily driving, he would add it in advance every evening and put it on the boat for them, to avoid them having to pay in advance.

When getting on the boat, he looked for it, that boat should have left first, didn't see it.

Anyway, he would meet it later, he didn't care, drove the boat directly to the target sea area.

All the way was the sound of wind, the sound of sea waves, and the sound of diesel engines. Little stutter

Once they reached the location, he also saw a faint circle of light in the distance; a fishing boat was moving slowly, and it seemed they had already begun working.

He also hurriedly dragged the large net out from the cabin, shouted for Xiao Jieba to help prepare to cast the net, and taught him how to organize the fishing net, how to cast it, and that the boat must continue to maintain a low-speed forward state while casting.

"I haven't asked you yet, what is your name?"

"My n-n-n-n-name is Ch-Ch-Chen Sh-Sh-Shi..."

"Chengshi (Honest)?"

"Sh-Sh-Sh-Sh-Shi (Stone) T-T-Tou..."

"Shi as in stone!"

He nodded.

Ye Yaodong smiled and couldn't help but shake his head; if he hadn't interrupted, he didn't know how many more times he would have had to recite that first character.

"Why isn't it according to the generation rank?"

Even though his grandfather had begged his way here, his father and his three brothers all had names that carried the generation rank from their original family; boys' names basically all carried the generation rank, while girls' names were casual.

"O-O-O-O-O-O-O-Original..."

"Say it one character at a time!"

How was he supposed to listen to this? Fortunately, it didn't delay the work at hand.

"I know the two characters for 'original' now, no need to say them."

Otherwise, 30 seconds might pass and he would still be saying those two characters.

"H-H-H... G-G-G... G-Genealogy... c-c-c-called... c-c-c-called M-..."

"Alright, I understand. It's recorded in the genealogy, but it's not used in everyday speech, right?"

He nodded awkwardly.

"Could it be that your brothers all have the generation character when they are called in daily life, but you don't?"

He nodded again, "H-H-H-H-H-H-Household... R-R-Register... a-a-a-also d-d-doesn't..."

"Got it, the household register doesn't have the generation rank either, only the name in the genealogy carries it."

He nodded again.

After satisfying his curiosity, Ye Yaodong patted him on the shoulder, "Get to work, earn more money. Your stutter can be cured; save up more money, and you can treat yourself in the future."

Nowadays, people have many children; when parents have seven or eight, how can they manage them one by one, especially one who is a stutterer.

The scale in the parents' hearts is bound to be tilted; they won't treat them fairly, and they probably despise him too. Being able to have a bite to eat and be raised is already not bad, and being bullied is the norm.

"C-C-C-C-Can... c-c-c-cure..."

"Yes, you can. When you have money, go to a big hospital and ask. Our small place definitely won't work. Just work hard and save money. I won't let you work for nothing; I'll calculate your wages."

"N-N-N..."

"Whoever I hire, I have to pay wages. Speak less and do more."

After Ye Yaodong finished speaking, seeing that the fishing net was about to be released, he went to steer the boat and stopped talking to him; talking to him was indeed exhausting.

Chen Shi stared at the fishing net as it gradually descended into the water, then looked for work to do on the boat, tidying up the messy things piled on board and sweeping away the dirty trash.

The rest of the time was quite idle; he could only sit there and wait for the fishing net to be hauled up.

Ye Yaodong was working and didn't intend to teach him how to steer the boat so quickly; who knew how many days he could last.

When it was time to haul up the fishing net, he looked quite happy and excited, though the harvest was actually just average—it was just a big pile of miscellaneous goods that looked like a very large package, and when the cargo was poured out, the whole deck was covered.

He taught him to throw some of the small crabs that were still alive back into the sea so they could grow a bit more; the other cargo was usually crushed to death when hauled up.

The dead small fish and shrimp were first pushed to one side; later, he would just take a large basket to hold them and take them back to feed the chickens and ducks or make fish sauce, while the large ones were sorted and packed.

After he finished sorting, he also understood that miscellaneous goods accounted for half; the harvest was indeed not very good. Usually, if they didn't encounter a school of fish, the harvest was like this—it was just a matter of luck, how much was hauled up.

By seven or eight in the morning, they had finished hauling another net of cargo and headed toward the fishing boat that was parked not far away and not moving.

Brother Asheng and the eldest cousin were quite surprised that the other person working on his boat was actually quite young and also quite unfamiliar.

Ye Yaodong gave a perfunctory introduction, and they didn't ask much more. Chen Shi also didn't speak, focusing on cooking the vegetable and seafood porridge.

After a simple meal, they each steered their boats to work.

At sea, if you don't encounter any accidents or novel things, it's just the same routine: casting nets, waiting, hauling nets, sorting, and then continuing.

His father wasn't there, and Ye Yaodong didn't intend to put down the ground cages and shrimp cages; it would be very troublesome if they got snagged on the bottom. Today, he just did simple trawling all day.

In the evening, seeing the sun slanting to the west, he looked at the harvest for the day and found it average, so he headed home early, taking the opportunity to return early to wait and help receive the cargo for Ah Guang's boat.

But when he reached the pier, he heard some gossip and jokes again, and almost laughed himself to death.

He pricked up his ears and listened around; it turned out that the old Wang family had been messed with twice and was afraid. They were terrified that someone would come over in the middle of the night to splash feces or do something else, making the whole family unable to have peace.

They came up with an idea.

They spent a lot of money to buy a few boxes of thumbtacks and iron nails. Before going to bed, they deliberately placed the thumbtacks with the sharp side up, arranged a circle at the entrance, and then scattered a large handful at the back door as well.

The worst part was that they nailed the iron nails onto thin wooden boards, nailed rows of sharp little wooden pieces, and placed them with the sharp points facing up along the side of the house, covering them with weeds, just to prevent someone from coming to the door to splash feces and make trouble.

Who knew that the person making trouble wasn't caught, but a neighbor who got up in the middle of the night to go pee in the corner stepped on the nail board. A row of sharp iron nails pierced into the sole of his foot, and a scream rang out in the silent night.

The people around were all awakened and climbed up. The neighbors in the nearby circle didn't get any sleep for the rest of the night, and they had been arguing about compensation all day today.

Because the two families were at a distance, the commotion at the old Wang family's house at night only affected the neighbors around them. It didn't spread in the middle of the night, and it only exploded after dawn.

There was also a situation at the Haozi (Rat) family's house, which also only started to make a fuss after dawn.

The situation at the Haozi family's house was because his wife knew that her reporting had been exposed and was afraid of being retaliated against by Ye Yaodong. She also learned from her maiden family, bought a pile of iron nails and thumbtacks, and went back to hammer and nail, following the same pattern.

Who knew that it had been calm and peaceful all along, and nothing happened. It was entirely their own guilty conscience and fear; they just harmed their own family.

Early in the morning, just as the sky was getting light, Haozi's mother got up to open the door and go out to dump the spittoon. She didn't look carefully at her feet and stepped on them with her full feet.

Fortunately, his mother-in-law was wearing plastic crystal slippers; the thumbtacks were short and bent when they poked in, and didn't pierce the flesh.

But the bad thing was that his mother-in-law didn't know what she had stepped on. When she lifted one foot to check the sole of her shoe, she didn't stand steady and fell, and the urine in the spittoon spilled all over the floor.

And she also sat her butt on the thumbtacks, and her hands were also pressed on the thumbtacks. Her whole butt and hands were covered in them, and her screams also shattered the surroundings.

The people nearby who hadn't woken up were also frightened awake. They got up and pushed open the windows to look, and the people from the old Chen family also got up one after another to check.

This family also made a fuss all day today. Haozi's wife was scolded by the whole family, but she wasn't beaten, because everyone who could beat her was injured...

Ye Yaodong was stunned and amused when he heard that the village was so lively today.

He didn't make a move, nor did he ask anyone to make a move. They were actually able to find trouble for themselves and reap what they sowed. It was hilarious.

People outside the pier were discussing it heatedly; the recent gossip had been continuous, and the villagers could almost not keep up with it.

"St-St-St-St-St-Stupid b-b-b-bird..."

"His wife scattered thumbtacks and nails everywhere, didn't she tell the family to be careful?" Ye Yaodong asked an uncle.

"I heard them say in the morning that when they were tossing about at night, several sisters-in-law saw it and reminded the children in the family not to run out at night. It's just that his mother went into the room to rub medicinal wine for her old man after dark and didn't come out, so she didn't know."

"Some people say they had just fought during the day, and his wife deliberately didn't remind them. Who knows? Anyway, not a single person told his mother."

"It must have been intentional, or they each assumed someone else would say it..."

"Oh my, I don't know how lively these two families were today. The scolding was constant, and the Women's Federation was running back and forth. Some people were complaining there, saying that all the other affiliated villages combined didn't have as much lively business as our village..."

"It's just that their two families have endless trouble. Who else is there? I think there will be more commotion to come..."

Ye Yaodong was queuing to weigh the goods while listening to the gossip that was endless in his ears. He felt that this life was really chaotic. If possible, it would be more worry-free to divorce early.

However, divorce is not popular in their rural areas. Generally, people just make do. If they can live, they live. If they quarrel or fight, they go back to their maiden homes. At most, they will be picked up again in a few days. No matter what, they have to consider the children.

The Haozi family has a son. Two years ago, when she was pregnant with the second child, she fell and lost it.

And generally, people persuade to reconcile rather than to divorce. Children are also a bond. After divorce, it is not easy for either of them to find someone else.

Divorce is not just a matter for two people; it is a matter for two families.

Never mind them. Anyway, he is not the one living the life. His family's life is going well, flourishing day by day.

After selling all the goods by weight, Ye Yaodong let the stutterer push the flatbed cart back to his house first, and by the way, go back early. He still had to wait at the pier. The two boats of Ah Guang's family hadn't come in yet.

When he was sitting on the stool that A Cai usually sat on, with his legs crossed, Xiao Xiao and A Zheng's boat also docked. After hearing today's gossip, both of them gloated and said they deserved it.

Everything that happened in the last few days was known to the whole village.

"If you ask me, they should just divorce. Otherwise, they are just being beasts of burden for other people's families, and looking at her, she doesn't seem like a good bird either."

"How can it be that easy? If you divorce, will you compensate him with a wife? Without a woman in the house, how can it be decent?" Xiao Xiao said disapprovingly.

"Forget it, a woman like his wife is also not decent."

"Where is there a life without quarrels? Let's just watch the fun. Otherwise, if others hear it, they will think you are instigating their divorce behind their backs. Who knows, both families might scold you then."

"Pfft~ None of my business."

Xiao Xiao changed the subject, "I don't know how the harvest on Ah Guang's boat is, and when will they return? They have been gone for two days, and it makes us envious."

"They should come back once in the next two days. After all, everyone on the boat is their own people. They just went to take a look and experience it. If you are interested, follow them out to sea next time."

"We'll see when the time comes. We haven't even figured out this boat of ours yet. Even if we are envious, we don't have that ability. Let's earn the money we can earn right now first."

"It's incredible. Our Brother Yao is so diligent that I almost don't recognize him. He is simply reborn."

"Hahahaha~"

A Zheng also laughed at him unceremoniously, "You don't know, he pulls me every three days and says don't go today, rest for a day, life is more important."

"As a result, he ran to my house in the middle of the night to knock on the door, saying he couldn't sleep, let's go to sea. I don't know how many times this has happened. I wanted to take a slipper and slap his face. He doesn't keep his word. I was sleeping so soundly."

"Bullshit, talking nonsense. It was clearly you who told me you were so tired, don't go tomorrow, rest for two days, money can't be earned up, life is more important."

"Then tell me if you knocked on my door! Or when we agreed to rest together!"

"It was my father who forced me to go, and he came to knock on my window punctually in the middle of the night. And I know you are lazier than me. I have to urge you. You can't just lie down because you have many sisters at home. This is my motivation to call you every day."

A Zheng rolled his eyes, "I knew you envied me."

Ye Yaodong watched the two of them joking around without interrupting. Anyway, there was a boat there. If they didn't want to work, their family members would scold them and drive them to go every day. Now it is already much better than before.

"Don't nag, it's your turn to weigh."

He also waited for Ah Guang's boat.
