Chapter 963: Teaching to drive a tractor

Ye Yaodong finished a bowl of tea, scooped another bowl, and drank two big bowls in a row to quench his thirst.

The big bucket of tea by his feet was originally prepared for the workers to drink.

The workers also went to the door to watch the excitement when the tractor returned. After watching the excitement, they all went in to continue working.

Ye Yaodong sat in the shade, just touched his pocket, ready to have another cigarette, but saw someone standing in front of him. 【963-5

Looking up, isn't this his Afan Ge?

He directly tucked the cigarette behind his ear. Since he had already come to talk to him, let's chat.

"Sorry, Dongzi. My mother is just a bit too worried, afraid I won't find work and won't be able to support the family. Anyway, if there's any work you can call me for, call me. If I can't do it, you can call someone who can. I can also find other work."

"Oh, don't you think it's slow to make money doing this kind of work?" Ye Yaodong looked up at him and asked nonchalantly.

The tone was light, but it was a killer blow.

Ye Yaofan's face instantly turned bitter.

"I've never touched big money either."

Ye Yaodong: "..."

What kind of big sucker is this?

"Then why did you follow along?"

"My mother kept nagging that my eldest brother had made a fortune and was a ten-thousand-yuan household in the village, telling him not to forget to pull me, his own younger brother, along when he made big money, and to take me with him, not to just look after himself, and to teach me more about how to do business, so I could earn a little bit too and have a sip of soup."

"Your mother is really good at worrying."

Constantly nagging about ten-thousand-yuan households, ten-thousand-yuan households. No wonder the eldest sister-in-law rushed out the moment she heard about reporting ten-thousand-yuan households. It turned out that she had always thought her family was a ten-thousand-yuan household and had long been brainwashed.

"My mother also wants us two brothers to be able to make big money and lead her to a good life."

"So you followed along."

His dark face was covered with embarrassment, and he felt ashamed. He opened his mouth and closed it again.

Ye Yaodong was speechless. Is this the legendary mama's boy? He didn't expect to have one around him.

Whatever the mother says, the son listens. Whatever she tells him to do, he does.

It's just that the mother and son are both ignorant and greedy. They didn't even know what kind of money people were making, and just thought about following along to make big money. As a result, they didn't enjoy the blessings, but shared the difficulties together.

That's why you must never touch things beyond your own cognitive range, because you don't understand them at all and will only be fooled by others and then implicated.

"Then what are your plans now?"

"Just live life first. If there's work, I'll do it. What other plans could I have?"

"Then go do it."

"Hmm." Ye Yaofan glanced at him, and then continued to move bricks.

Ye Yaodong looked at his back and took the cigarette tucked behind his ear again to light it.

Who cares? He's not his own brother, and he's not someone who pulls everyone along.

His eldest aunt is too good at planning, her hands reach too far, and she is used to climbing up the nose and onto the face. She is also very easy to find a step for herself. Even though she just finished saying harsh words, the next day she can act like nothing happened and greet people with a smile.

The two sisters-in-law also hate Ye Yaofan to death. Every day, their eyes aren't eyes, and their noses aren't noses. Whose money is blown in by the wind? Although he isn't the mastermind, he is also an accomplice. How is he not an accessory?

His two brothers are actually okay. When they were first released, they would scold a few times. Now that they meet, they can still say a few words. Maybe they made big money, and their hearts are a little comforted.

He is quite indifferent. Anyway, they didn't cheat him. In his previous life, he had heard too much about this kind of Ponzi scheme, and it was everywhere in the country.

It's just that his eldest aunt is too good at disgusting people and too good at jumping around, which is annoying.

His father is more concerned about the feelings of relatives. Anyway, he has to hire people for scattered work, so he doesn't care. If his father wants to call him, then call him. The work in the workshop is out of the question, and the tractor is even more out of the question.

Those boys took good care of his house when he wasn't home, and nothing went wrong. Of course, he has to think about them more.

Like a while ago when they didn't go out to sea, Chen Shi and Li Jiarong had nothing to do, so they cut firewood and delivered firewood every day, and the good habit has been maintained.

Recently, Chen Shi went out to sea with his father, so Li Jiarong cut firewood alone. The Fengshou Hao came back a while ago, and because it was windy, it rested for three or four days. It just went out again two days ago, and the firewood in the workshop cannot be less.

Those shrimp kernels are very popular, even more popular than dried fish, bringing him a lot of income. The income has clearly increased in these two months.

The most important thing is that the cost is low, almost no cost is needed, at most a little labor cost and transportation cost, and the storefront is his own.

Ye Yaodong sat at the door and smoked two cigarettes before going to the back door to wash his hair and take a bath.

The people at the door were endless, and his parents also kept standing at the door, chatting endlessly with the villagers who came to watch the excitement. It wasn't until it got dark and it was time for dinner that there were fewer people, and his parents came in and drank two big bowls of tea.

"I thought you weren't thirsty."

Ye Mu was full of joy. "Everyone was too enthusiastic. I just chatted with them for a while. I couldn't just ignore them and not greet people. They all came specifically to see."

Ye Fu was also full of smiles. "One wave left, another wave came. Those who didn't know would think our family was marrying a daughter-in-law again."

"Then can the tractor be driven into the workshop now?"

"It's not dark yet, what's the rush? Your eldest brother and second brother haven't come back yet. Wait until they come back and let them see it too."

Ye Yaodong automatically translated in his heart: The people who went to sea haven't come back, and there are still people who haven't seen it, what's the rush?

Ye Fu also said: "Eat first. It won't be too late to drive the car into the workshop after eating."

"Okay, I'll do whatever you say."

"When are you going to teach those boys to drive the tractor?"

"Better to choose a day than to bump into one. How about tomorrow? Teach them early, take them for a few more laps? If the goods in the small room at the workshop are full in a few days and need to be delivered, take them along. Driving back and forth on the mountain road a few times will make them familiar with the route, and then you won't have to worry about it anymore. Just leave it all to them to deliver."

"Tomorrow? Cough... then if you're free at night, how about teaching me first?"

"Ah?"

Ye Fu glared at him unhappily. "Ah what? You're free anyway, teach me first. In case you're busy or something, I can also help drive or something."

"Okay," Ye Yaodong responded helplessly. "If you want to learn, I'll teach you. This is also very simple."

He opened his mouth happily. "I was also thinking if you were busy, I..."

"Who doesn't know your hands are itchy and you want to learn to drive a tractor like others? Where would he still need your help? There are so many little brothers there." Ye Mu immediately exposed him, not leaving him any face.

Ye Fu also glared at her. "I just want to learn, so what? There aren't many people in the whole village who can drive a tractor. I just want to learn, so I'll be better than others and have face. People live a lifetime just for a face."

"Yes, yes, yes, Dad is right. When it gets windy and we can't go out to sea, when I'm free, I'll teach you to drive a motorcycle, let you run a lap in the village, and become the most handsome old man in the whole village."

Ye Fu was overjoyed, his mouth couldn't close from laughing. "You want to teach me to drive a motorcycle too? That thing doesn't seem to be very good, I've seen it flip over..."

"Nonsense, you haven't even started learning, and you're saying this. You'd better not learn." The old lady retorted unhappily.

Ye Yaodong also said: "It's fine, it's not that easy to flip. It has three wheels, as long as you stabilize the center of gravity, it's no problem. This isn't difficult either. Anyway, just learn on a flat road first, just on the beach, and there won't be any problems."

"Okay, learn the tractor at night, motorcycle, let's talk about it when we're free. That's not urgent."

Ye Mu said: "It's dark, what are you learning? Can you see? Can't you learn during the day tomorrow?"

"I don't have to go out to sea at night? When do I have time to learn during the day? Today, because the tractor came back, I couldn't bear to go out to sea, and I've already delayed a day."

"Then it's up to you."

Ye Fu's little thoughts were satisfied, and he was very happy, and even eating was fragrant.

After dinner, it wasn't completely dark yet, and there was still a little light. As soon as Ye Yaodong started the tractor, the children playing in the open space heard the movement and all surrounded him.

"Third Uncle, let us sit for a while too?"

"Yes, Third Uncle, let us get off when we drive to the workshop. We haven't sat in a tractor yet."

"Third Uncle, let us sit for a lap, get a kick out of it..."

Other neighbors' children watched enviously, just wanting to hear if he could be merciful and let them climb up to get a kick out of it.

The show-off Ye Chenghu immediately jumped out. "I tell you, this tractor is not comfortable at all, it keeps bumping around, standing there makes you sway, the whole person has to sway with the tractor. If you sit, your butt can bounce to the sky."

"You've sat in it, we haven't."

"It's really not fun, Dad, I want to ride a motorcycle..."

Ye Yaodong glanced down at him and didn't spoil him. "Motorcycles are also bumpy, so don't ride it. You just stand and watch. If you others aren't afraid of bumping and want to come up, then come up."

"Ah, really!"

"Hurry up, hurry up..."

"I want to go up too..."

"I want to sit in the tractor too..."

With his words, the other children were excited and scrambled to climb up, even the neighbors' children climbed up nimbly.

Ye Chengyang also climbed up, leaving only Ye Chenghu standing there struggling.

Ye Xiaoxi, being so small, also wanted to join the fun with a bunch of big children. Whatever others did, she did too.

Unable to climb up, she threw her doll up first, and then hung on the edge of the car bucket, unable to go up. Other children even enthusiastically pulled her arms, wanting to drag her up.

Ye Yaodong saw it and hurriedly picked her up. How could this be pulled casually? Half-grown children don't know their own strength, and the little doll's arms are soft, so don't pull them out of joint.

"My little ancestor, you are only so big, don't join the fun, it's dark."

"Want, want..."

"I'll take you on the motorcycle tomorrow. Don't sit in this, this is not fun. It will throw you out later. Aqing~ Aqing~ carry the daughter inside..."

"No... no... car... want to sit... car..."

Ye Xiaoxi was held in his arms, twisting, relying, and struggling. Ye Yaodong almost couldn't hold this little chubby girl, and slid her to the ground.

Lin Xiuqing came out with a whip. "Ye Xiaoxi!"

Ye Xiaoxi looked back, her eyes widened, and she was so scared that she immediately climbed up from the ground and hid behind her father, shouting, "Don't hit... I'm good... I'm good... can't hit..."

"Brother is not good, hit brother... hit brother..."

While speaking, she pointed her finger at Ye Chenghu, shouting "hit brother" constantly.

Ye Yaodong was amused.

Dead friend, not dead priest.

Ye Chenghu looked at her incredibly. "What did I do? Where did I offend you?"

"Brother is not good..."

"Where am I not good? I'll beat you!"

"Brother hit me... Mom... brother hit me..."

She was two meters away from him, and he hadn't even touched her yet, but she accused him first and ran over to hug Lin Xiuqing's thigh.

Ye Chenghu was so angry that he jumped, clenched his fists, and ran to her, pretending to gesture at her twice.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xiuqing took the whip and swung it at his lower leg twice.

Now Ye Chenghu was also bristling with anger.

"Ah, what does it have to do with me? Why hit me? I didn't do anything to her, I just scared her a little. She was the one who accused me first and said I hit her. I clearly didn't do anything."

"Why did you scare her? In the middle of the night."

"You even took the whip out to scare her, and you're talking about me."

"Who said I took the whip out to scare her?"

"Then why did you take the whip out? Specifically to hit me?"

Lin Xiuqing took the whip and hit him twice more. Ye Chenghu didn't expect his mother to be serious and actually hit him again. He didn't react for a moment and stood there and took the two hits solidly.

"It's just to hit you. Did you do your homework? You moved bricks as soon as you came back until your father came back, and you didn't write half a word. Now it's going to be dark, and you're still wandering outside."

Ye Chenghu touched his painful lower leg and looked at them aggrievedly. He clearly didn't do anything, but he was beaten.

He pointed his index finger at Ye Xiaoxi and secretly glared at her.

Ye Xiaoxi opened her mouth wide and wanted to lean over to bite his finger. Fortunately, he reacted this time and withdrew it in time.

"You're a dog!"

"It's a duck!"

"It's a dog!"

"Bite you, bite you!"

Lin Xiuqing grabbed Ye Chenghu's clothes and dragged him into the courtyard. "Why don't you go do your homework?"

"Hey? There's another one here!"

Lin Xiuqing turned back and picked up Ye Xiaoxi.

"Doll... doll..." Ye Xiaoxi hadn't forgotten the cloth doll still on the car.

The children on the car helped throw the doll down. Ye Yaodong caught it and gave it to her, and she looked eagerly at entering the courtyard.

"Third Uncle, can you drive the tractor now?"

"Hmm."

Ye Fu had been standing by watching the farce of the children, laughing happily. "This little girl is only so big, but she looks quite smart, and she even knows how to accuse others first."

Ye Yaodong also felt a sense of honor.

"She is indeed quite smart. The whole family doesn't know how to read. Let's see if she will know how to read when she grows up."

"Dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes, and the son of a mouse will dig holes. I think it's about the same. Anyway, she won't starve to death. Just raise her until she's eighteen and marry her off."

"Nonsense, she hasn't even finished school at eighteen."

"There are plenty of people in the village who get married at seventeen or eighteen..."

"Do you still want to learn the tractor?" Ye Yaodong dropped a sentence and walked toward the tractor first.

Ye Fu hurriedly followed. "Learn, learn..."

The children on the car couldn't wait any longer. After the tractor started to move, they were all happy and jumping up and down.

"Don't jump. If you jump again, I'll sell all of you in the car..."

Ye Yaodong drove the car to the door of the workshop and shouted for a bunch of children to get off, letting them play on their own. Although those children were a bit unwilling, having only sat for a little while, they were still happy to be people who had sat in a tractor.

After getting off the car, everyone was shouting that they had sat in a tractor.

Wang Guangliang and others in the workshop had already finished the shift change. The twins were on the day shift, and Wang Guangliang's cousins were on the night shift.

As soon as they came over, they saw the tractor tied with a big red flower parked at the courtyard gate, and they had already greeted them when they were eating dinner.

Hearing that Ye Yaodong was going to teach them to drive the tractor, everyone was dumbfounded, and after reacting, they were overjoyed.

"Really, Dong Ge? Are you really teaching us to drive the tractor?"

"Am I dreaming? This is a newly bought tractor!"

"I want to teach my father, and you can learn together. In a few days, if the goods in the workshop need to be delivered to the city, I'll take you to familiarize yourselves with the road section, and let you drive a section on the way. You'll have to rely on yourselves to deliver goods in the future."

The two were instantly excited.

"Dong Ge, you bought this tractor for us to drive?"

"Dong Ge, you are too good... we will definitely work hard, whatever you tell us to do, we will do."

"Who said I bought it specifically for you? Thinking too much? It's just dark and you're starting to dream? I bought this specifically for delivering goods. I don't have time to drive it, so don't I have to tell you to drive it?"

"Yes, yes, yes, we will help you deliver goods!" Wang Guangliang patted his chest and guaranteed, "We will definitely deliver the goods to you safely."

"Yes, Dong Ge, from now on, leave the delivery of goods to us. We will definitely handle things well for you, beautifully."

"I didn't expect that I could still drive a tractor in this life, I can finally be considered a human being..."

"That's thanks to Dong Ge, without him, we would still be wandering around, not doing serious things..."

The two talked happily, saying a lot of words of thanks.

Ye Yaodong listened and was extremely satisfied. After they finished talking, he interrupted them and called them to listen together to how to start and how to drive.

After they understood, he let them take turns, and he sat on the side and watched.

After teaching for a while, the three took turns, and in just two hours, all three could drive a full lap back and forth along the coast.

This made the three of them smile from ear to ear.

"This is quite simple," Ye Fu said happily. "At my age, I only need to learn for a while and I'll know how."

"Flat roads and mountain roads are different. You have to learn how to brake well, and you have to practice well in the future. But it's not very difficult, just be a little more careful. When I earn a little more money, I'll buy a four-wheeled car and teach you."

"Haha, don't joke, you don't even know how."

"Learn, I'll teach you after I learn, the car is even more awesome."

"Forget it, that car is useless, not as good as a tractor. Don't think about seven or eight things. We already have a tractor, and now no one in the whole village is as powerful as you. Don't think about cars, that car is expensive and impractical."

"We'll talk about it then."

The more you earn, the more you spend, of course.

Earn more, spend more; earn less, spend less; don't earn, don't spend.

When you really earn a lot of money and have that need, of course you have to buy it.

At present, there is really no such need. For him, the car is really not as useful as the tractor.

After Ye Yaodong taught them to drive the tractor, he parked the tractor back in the workshop and took the handle home. Tired for a day, he also wanted to lie down early.

Ye Fu also went home with a happy smile. Now that he went back, he had something to talk about again.

His son bought a tractor and taught him how to drive it. He was also one of the few people in the village who could drive a tractor.

Face, face.

I didn't expect that when I was old, my son would give me so much face. This year, I have really exhausted all the limelight of the previous fifty years.

Ye Fu felt his feet floating when he walked back.

As soon as Ye Yaodong got home, he lay directly on the bed. The children at the door were still noisy there, and he could hear it clearly lying on the bed.

These little rabbits heard that they could see the stars in the sky when lying at home, so they moved back in the past few nights, and they were noisy every night. The scolding of Aqing and the two sisters-in-law never stopped.

It was the same at night, noisy and not knowing until what time. He slept in a daze, half-asleep and half-awake, and only fell asleep after listening to the movement stop.

The next morning, the twins knew that Ye Yaodong had taught Wang Guangliang's cousins to drive the tractor, so they waited at the door early in the morning, moving bricks while waiting for him to get up.

Seeing him, they leaned eagerly in front of him.

He was brushing his teeth there, and the two squatted there watching.

He went in to eat, and the two stood at the door like door gods waiting.

He came out and sat at the door smoking, and the two sat on his left and right, not taking the initiative to mention anything, just showing their faces in front of him, looking for a sense of existence.

Ye Yaodong kept looking at them with his eyes, and seeing that they didn't say anything, he was also speechless.

"You blocked me early in the morning, following me wherever I go, just to see me? Or let me see you?"

"Hehe... Dong Ge..."

"If you are idle, then go move bricks, I will go to the workshop."

After speaking, he got up and walked toward the workshop, and the two immediately followed.

"Why are you following me? You go move bricks."

"Dong Ge, the tractor you drove back yesterday is quite good-looking."

"What's good-looking about a lump of iron? You don't want to move bricks, right? Then you go to the workshop and watch, I'll go back to move bricks."

Ye Yaodong pretended to turn around and walk back, and the two didn't dare to hold back anymore, and hurriedly turned around and followed.

"Dong Ge Dong Ge... it's like this, I heard that you taught Wang Guangliang and them to drive the tractor last night, can you teach our brothers too?"

"Yes, yes, in case it's not their shift time, they are not there, and there is something temporary, we will drive the tractor, we can also fill in, it is more convenient for more people to know."

"So you followed me early in the morning, looking at me eagerly just because you want to learn to drive a tractor?"

The two nodded like pounding garlic.

"Say it earlier, what's there to hide? I thought you lost a lot of money gambling and wanted to ask me for help. I was thinking about telling you to get lost."

"No, no, where do we have time to gamble? We only have a few people who are idle and like to play cards."

"When I first saw Wang Guangliang, I saw him hiding in someone's house gambling."

"Oh, he had nothing to do at that time, right? When he was idle, he liked to go there to watch people gamble. If he had money in his hands, he would play a few times. If he lost everything, he would naturally go home and sleep. Now that there is work to do, who has that leisure to gamble?"

"It's good that you don't. Small gambling is for pleasure, big gambling hurts the body. Don't let me find out you are gambling big, otherwise you can find work yourself."

Occasionally, it is necessary to knock appropriately, so that he is getting better and better now, buying land and building houses, the motorcycle has just been repaired, and another tractor has been driven back.

Don't let him not expand, but the boys who follow him to work expand first.

Although boys of this age are loyal, they are also competitive, have strong vanity, and have no stability. The work here is easy, and the money is good and stable.

Now the limelight is enough, don't have no thoughts yourself, and be coaxed away by others. Appropriate knocking is only good, not bad.

The two shook their heads like rattles.

"Definitely not, absolutely not."

"Let's go, teach you to drive the tractor, I originally planned to teach you when you came to take over the shift today, and then take turns delivering goods two by two."

"Ah, then didn't we struggle for nothing just now?"

"We were embarrassed to say it at that time."

"So you are stupid! Remember to go move bricks after you learn, I will go to the factory to watch, find something for you to do, otherwise your brains will be wasted."

Both were a little confused, what does physical labor have to do with mental labor?

"Oh, okay, okay, tell us what to do, we will do whatever, just call us if there is something to do."

"Not afraid of having work to do, just afraid of having no work to do."

Ye Yaodong shook his head, the essence is not bad, just lack of discipline, no one at home to manage, what they grow up to be depends entirely on how society teaches them. Fortunately, they met him.

Can't be rich and expensive, at least can be straightened out, have a serious job to do, can mix a meal, have a human appearance.

Just when the two were driving the tractor in a decent way, A Guang came over on a bicycle, the bell ringing ding-ding.

Ye Yaodong let them practice on their own.

"Running so diligently? Just separated yesterday, and came to the door early in the morning, miss me or want to curry favor with me?"

"Curry favor with your head, I came to find the old lady, want her to go scold your second aunt."

"Ah? Why scold my second aunt? Did she run to your house again? A Sheng Ge and the eldest cousin rented my boat, right? They went out to sea at night, and both of them did very well. Why did she run to your house?"

His two aunts are one more restless than the other, at their age, they can still toss so much.

Eldest aunt today, second aunt tomorrow.

In fact, in the final analysis, it is also because the son is not promising, and parents have endless worries about their children.
