Back to the small fishing village in 1982Y

Chapter 397 Double Happiness
Ye Yaodong snatched the hammer from her hand and threw it back into the basin, "Really, why did you lie to me?"

"Okay, why did the pie fall from the sky all of a sudden?"

"I didn't say it, I'm proud of your son's contribution!"

Ye Muxi's face was full of smiles. At this time, the status of the Women's Federation was very high.

The leader said that women hold up half the sky!

Mother Ye wiped her wet hands on her body happily, "Are you really going to let me into the Women's Federation? Then when will I go to work? What should I do? I can't read, what should I do?"

"Go to work tomorrow. As for what to do, you can listen to the women's director's assignment. You can do whatever you are asked to do. If you don't have much work, you can still play at home. Anyway, you can get a job."

Second Aunt Ye also said happily: "Mother is amazing, she can still enter the Women's Federation."

"Yes, mother, the Women's Federation is very prestigious. The women's director said a word..." Auntie Ye's expression changed in an instant during the middle of speaking, and then she whispered, "Mother, the Women's Federation is not as glorious as it was in the past few years."

Mother Ye was very happy, and after hearing Mrs. Ye's reminder, she realized that because of the policy in the past few years, wherever the Women's Federation went, people were frightened.

"What are you afraid of, mother, when you should turn a blind eye and turn a blind eye, just turn a blind eye and close your eyes. Just don't do immoral things. Giving convenience to others is to accumulate virtue and do good deeds."

Mother Ye nodded, "That's right, we can't do immoral things, we should accumulate virtue."

"Isn't that enough? It's something to be happy about being a village cadre and an iron rice bowl."

"Yes, yes, oh my god, I didn't expect that at my age, I could still eat public meals, and the ancestral grave is smoking." After Ye Mu thought about it, she happily closed her mouth from ear to ear, "No, I have to Go talk to your father...to make him happy too..."

Father Ye was helping out as a laborer by the side, and when he heard Mother Ye's excited words, he was so startled that he almost hit his foot with a big rock. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and jumped back.

"What? What are you talking about? Are you dreaming, or am I deaf?"

"Oh, hahaha, I didn't expect that I would be able to eat public meals at my age. It's really great. No, I have to go back and look for clothes to wear. I can't be ashamed tomorrow..." Mother Ye couldn't close her mouth with joy, and ignored Father Ye, and planned to go back to the old house after talking on her own.

Father Ye quickly grabbed her, "Hey, you bitch, tell me clearly, why are you joining the Women's Federation, what work are you going to do tomorrow?"

"Don't bother, you can ask Dongzi." Mother Ye slapped Father Ye's hand off, happily going home to look through the closet.

Father Ye looked at Ye Yaodong who was leaning against the wall again.

The workers working on the side also pricked up their ears curiously, wanting to hear what's going on?

Ye Yaodong said: "Let's go, dad, I'm going to the sea, the village committee has assigned a new job, and asked us to go to the sea to inspect it. Ma De, I will not be able to go to sea for a few days, and the loss will be great."

"The sun is about to set, why go to sea to patrol? Also, what's going on with your mother?"

"Give a stick to a sweet date. If you want the donkey to work, you have to feed the donkey."

"What the hell are you talking about? Tell me about it." Father Ye became anxious when he heard some unclear words from him.

Ye Yaodong walked into the house on his own, "I'll tell you as I go."

He was so pissed off, knowing that he was in a hurry and still showing off, Father Ye hurriedly followed.

"Everyone of you, what habit is it that you don't speak clearly in half of your speech, don't you know that people will be anxious? You speak half of your speech all day, where do you want me to listen?"

Ye Yaodong walked with a smile on his face and told his father the ins and outs. The delighted father Ye also narrowed his eyes and stopped being angry.

"This big cauldron is good!"

"It was my suggestion that was good. It solved a major problem for them and allowed the Mazu Temple to be rebuilt."

"I haven't responded yet..."

"I guess the discussion should be settled in the afternoon, right? It's just a question of how much money to approve. It doesn't make sense that I will be commended and rewarded for my donation, but Mazu will not? The temple building will definitely be accomplished."

"That's good. I didn't expect your mother to eat public meals at an old age. It's a pity. She can't read."

"What's so difficult about it? If you want to read, you're afraid you won't be able to? Go to a literacy class, or ask her to come over every night and let Ah Hai teach her how to read."

"Forget it, you're already old. Ah Hai doesn't even want to study, how can he teach your mother?"

"That's true. That kid might not know as many characters as I do. However, the Women's Federation seems to have women's literacy classes, right? Just let her learn."

Father Ye nodded, and couldn't help but glance at him, "Why didn't you send a village official?"

"I think too much. I just got out of illiteracy. I didn't even graduate from elementary school, let alone middle school. This is not the 70s and [-]s. As long as I can read, I can be a village cadre. And I don't want to go to sea? Who is free there? Sit and drink tea every day?"

"Too."

"However, Secretary Chen arranged for Ah Qing to work in the village committee."

"Ah?" Father Ye was surprised again, "Your wife also has a share?"

"For sure, if you don't give me some benefits, who will give him orders? If you have a lot of money left, tell him where to hunt and patrol the sea area? I didn't go fishing this day, so I lost a lot."

"That's right, you can earn a lot of money this day. I haven't gone for several days recently, and I don't know if I will delay for a few more days. This time I lost a few hundred dollars."

"Well, let's go, let's get on the boat first, take a walk around later, and take back the ground cage by the way. It has been in the sea for three days. If you don't take it back, the goods inside will be damaged. Take it back and put it on the coast. I don’t know when the salvage team that applied for will come down, so it’s convenient to put it closer.”

"Okay, let's take a look around, and go back quickly before the sun goes down. I guess it will be dark when I come back."

The father and son went to the marked coastal waters where the bronzes were salvaged. There were really two unbelieving boats wandering around, one from the village and the other from the next village. There were quite a few men on board, all of whom were wet. I've been in the water, and I don't know if I can get anything down to the bottom.

The father and son hurriedly dismissed them in the past, and told them to leave regardless of whether they had caught anything or not, otherwise they would not be able to eat anything in the report, and the things on the bottom of the sea here have already been rowed to the public.

If they were lucky enough to get something to take away without being discovered, that would be their fate, and even if they were discovered, it would not be his business.

It's not his stuff, he doesn't need to be so conscientious to fight with them to get it back, just drive it away.

The people on the two boats also knew them, and they also knew that people were not allowed to go fishing here. After a few words to those officials, they cooperated and left.

When the two boats were far away and there was only one small spot left, Ye Yaodong set off for the submerged reef, and quickly put away the cage before the sun went down and the sky was still bright.

Undoubtedly, he had to go into the water to rescue him again. The ground cage was placed on this submerged reef, and there was never a time when he didn't need to go into the water to rescue him.

By the time everything was done for the return trip, it was dark.

Originally, he was still thinking about going back and putting down the ground cage around the coast, but now he can only give up and wait until tomorrow.

It's not too short of time, and it's the same when I come out tomorrow morning.

Lin Xiuqing waited for him at home for a long time before he came back, so she asked the children to eat first, and then sat at the door to enjoy the cool while waiting for him. Fortunately, it was hot and the food was cold, but there were more mosquitoes at the door. It has been bitten all over its legs.

Seeing the man in the distance, who came back from wearing the moon and stars in the dark, she put her heart back into her stomach.

"Eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law said that you and dad went to patrol the coast, why did you come back now? It's past 8 o'clock, and I thought something happened."

"Nothing happened, I just went to collect a ground cage. It was too far away, and it took a little longer. The fish in the bucket will be boiled later and put away tomorrow, otherwise it will go bad if left overnight. Don't worry about small fish and shrimp." Throw it away, I'll keep it as bait."

"I'll do it later, wash your hands and eat first, I was so worried when I just sat at the door." Lin Xiuqing took the bucket in his hand and put it next to the stove, and then went to fill the pot with rice.

Ye Yaodong watched her fill two bowls of rice, and sat down together to pick up the chopsticks, only to realize that she hadn't eaten until now.

"Why don't you eat first? You are breastfeeding now, what if you run out of milk?"

"How can I be hungry? I drink soup and water all day long, and there is a lot of milk. You can eat quickly, the two children have finished eating."

"Don't wait next time. Oh, by the way, remember to take some time every day to report to the village committee and sit down for a while."

Lin Xiuqing looked puzzled, "Why should I go to the village committee?"

Ye Yaodong smiled and said: "Secretary Chen has arranged a clerical job for you, now you only need to go to check in every day and sit for a while, and then work after the child is weaned."

"what?"

Lin Xiuqing's jaw dropped in shock, and all the beans in her hand fell off. She only heard that his mother had joined the Women's Federation this afternoon, but she didn't expect her to be there?

"Really? Don't tease me."

"Do I seem to be teasing you?"

"picture!"

He pursed his lower lip angrily and glanced at her, "Secretary Chen said that there is a shortage of people, and you can read and write. After graduating from junior high school, I will arrange for you directly."

"Is there such a good thing?" She still couldn't believe it.

"Of course, my relationship with Secretary Chen is not bad! Of course I will be thought of when good things happen."

Lin Xiuqing blinked her eyes twice, she didn't come back to her senses, "My darling, then I'm still a village cadre?"

"Yes! Are you happy? From now on, you will also be a public servant, and you will no longer have to sit at the gate and weave nets to earn those three melons and two dates."

She gave him a reproachful look, "Idle is idle, it's good to weave a net to subsidize the family, isn't everyone like this."

"After signing in tomorrow, show the child to the two sister-in-laws. Go and buy some floral cloth and make some beautiful clothes."

"What's the matter? I'm going to make the clothes first? I have to spend money before I earn money."

"Isn't it? Clothes are the appearance of a person. It's fine at home, but you have to dress nicely when you go out. When my mother heard the news in the afternoon, she couldn't wait to go back and look through the closet."

Lin Xiuqing smiled until her eyes crooked, "Mother is very impatient."

"When she gets old, she can still shake her prestige. Can she not be happy, can she not be impatient? I guess everyone in the village knows what she has preached."

"Indeed! My mother is illiterate, will someone talk to me?" Lin Xiuqing was a little worried after thinking about it, "And if I don't work like this, will it be too bad to just get paid? Otherwise, wait a few months The child is weaned, and I will go to work again? To avoid people talking about it."

"Isn't the Women's Federation also holding women's literacy classes, just let her learn it. As for you, you are empty...you can ask Secretary Chen when you go to the village committee tomorrow. If he says it's okay, it's okay. It should be fine. He said today that he would just let you show your face and sit for a while every day."

"Let me ask first, the house is being built at home now, and I can't leave for a while. Otherwise, I will go there tomorrow to sign a document, and get the work done first, and then I will tell Secretary Chen that I will go a few days later."

"It's okay. You can figure it out. Ask him first. If you don't want to talk to others, you can wait a few months before going to work."

She nodded happily.

After all, he is a village official, what a rare opportunity.
