In 1983, a small island started from a large farmer

Chapter 438: Damn, I’ve been putting up with you for a long time.

"Old Chen, you are very strange. You don't relieve yourself when you come to the toilet. Why do you keep looking at me? Isn't it because of urinary split ends or urinary retention? You need to check others to see if they have it."

"You just peeed and split your ends. I'm fine. When I was your age, I couldn't even be blown away by a typhoon."

After Lao Chen finished speaking, he then asked: "Let me ask you something, who is the person eating with you later?"

Li Duoyu shook his head and put the thing back into his crotch. He subconsciously wanted to go to the faucet to wash his hands, but found that there was no such thing in this era.

"That guy is a slut."

Old Chen frowned and said, "Seriously, why did that person come back with Xiaoyun?"

Li Duoyu smiled. Lao Chen was a 100% slave to his daughter. Maybe it was because he was not good at it. The couple only had one daughter, so they loved her so much.

I heard that some time ago, in order to be closer to his daughter, Lao Chen wanted to open a small frying shop near Rongcheng University.

"I'm just walking with a man, and you're so nervous. You can't have this kind of mentality. Besides, Xiaoyun is not young anymore. She will get married sooner or later. You have to be mentally prepared."

Thanks to the deep-water pier and the addition of a fishery products processing plant, the reputation of Qingkou Pier has become well-established. Many fishing boats from other places choose to come here to sell fish.

Lao Chen looked at Li Duoyu and couldn't help but shake his head: "When I see you, I can't help but think of your afro, when you came to my shop to eat, and you often squatted there with my fire tongs to perm your hair. "

Li Duoyu rolled his eyes at him: "I don't like hearing what you say. I'm very old. I'm only five years older than Xiaoyun."

After a group of people finished lunch, Director Liu wanted to ask them to go to the factory to make tea and rest.

"No, Director Liu, I'll go back to the island first and bring the remaining cloves over later."

"Haven't you heard that the richer you are, the stingier you are?"

After eating, when your teeth are really stuck, you usually just dig them out with your hands. If you really can't get them out, you can go find a bamboo broom and break off a small section of the thin bamboo branches on it, just enough to use it to prick the teeth.

Li Duoyu nodded.

Old Chen said hehey: "You look quite polite. I see that you two are familiar with each other. Can you help me introduce him?"

As the number of fishing boats increased, fishmongers who had been forced out of work by aquatic product processing plants began to collect fish again.

The dishes ordered by Li Duoyu and the others are indeed not expensive. They are all ordinary home-cooked dishes, such as fried squid with green pepper, braised hairtail, spicy stir-fried snails...

Since it is the 14th day of the lunar calendar, the tide level is very different. At about 1 o'clock in the afternoon, the tide has receded to the lowest position.

Lao Chen frowned and looked at Li Duoyu: "It feels the same as before."

Fortunately, this boy had a childhood sweetheart, otherwise he might have attacked his daughter.

"If you have money, why are you so stingy about ordering food? You won't even order lobster and grouper."

Processing plants generally only accept commercial fish, and they will not accept miscellaneous fish, grouper and other more expensive fish.

"Damn, is it such an exaggeration? How could I forget? You couldn't deliberately make it up to belittle my image."

"Old Chen, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. There is no point in being too lenient. It's time to learn to let go."

Lao Chen, who was slapped in the face, was a little embarrassed: "I'm not in a hurry. You should pay more attention to such outstanding talents."

Lao Chen was stunned for a moment. It seemed that this was really the case. Duoyu didn't seem to be that big, only five years older than Xiaoyun.

"It was only two or three years ago. Do you think it happened?"

Lao Chen hummed, "If I had let her go, my daughter would have been abducted by street gangsters like you."

Eating too much big fish and meat will make you tired. Only home-cooked food can make you feel good.

Li Duoyu declined.

Old Chen suddenly changed the subject and said, "Let me ask you something, is the young man brought by Director Liu really an international student?"

It turns out that this is Lao Chen's purpose. Li Duoyu shook his head and said in disgust: "Xiaoyun still wants to study for graduate school or Ph.D., why should she be in such a hurry?"

His afro was learned from a fashionable old lady in the town. He first heated the poker red, then soaked it in water. When it was almost hot, he used it to curl his hair.

Li Duoyu sighed: "Some people just like to have double standards. When they see someone from an average family, they will fight against each other. When they see someone who is outstanding, they want to betray them. I am so outstanding, why don't you pay attention to me."

In the past, Qingkou Wharf could not dock at this time, but since Secretary Chen and Director Liu took the lead in making the wharf deep-water, fishing boats can still dock even if there is a strong astronomical tide.

Li Duoyu, Chen Wenchao and Zhang Defa were sitting on the stone steps of Qingkou Pier, all three holding small bamboo branches used for picking teeth in their mouths.

The tide has begun to rise, and every time the waves hit forward, a step will be submerged. Li Duoyu flicked the thin bamboo branches in his mouth into the sea.

Old Chen squinted and said, "What are you doing to prepare yourself mentally? Xiaoyun is still studying, and maybe she will have to take the postgraduate and doctoral exams, so why are you in such a hurry?"

In this era, toothpicks were not yet popular, and they would not be prepared for you in stir-fry shops.

After all, the processing plant does not collect all kinds of fish. Fishermen bring all kinds of seafood from the sea, especially those trawlers. In one net, there may be more than ten kinds of marine fish.

"Old Chen, you have such a perverted vision. I am different from before. I am an advanced worker in the county, the village director, and I am often in the newspapers."

About half past one.

"Excuse me, then I'll see you in the afternoon."

Old Chen looked disgusted: "How can there be such an old college student? He looks as old as you."

Li Duoyu squinted his eyes and said, "Old Chen, didn't you like college students before? The one who came back with your daughter is also a college student and is studying medicine. Please give it some thought."

"Of course there is a difference. I had no money before, but now I have money."

Li Duoyu thought for a while and realized that he had indeed forgotten about this matter, but it was really possible. There was really no hair perming agent back then.

"The water has risen, let's go back to the island."

The three of them boarded the white fishing boat. The fishermen on the dock were no longer so surprised when they saw the boat, but they were still very envious.

A fishmonger looked at the fishing boats going away and sighed: "How much money do you have to make to buy a boat like this?"

"Why would you buy a boat like this? It's not practical. If you really have that kind of money, you'd definitely buy a big tugboat."

"You don't understand this. If you buy this kind of boat, how can you catch fish? It must be like a Hong Kong TV series. You can take girls out to play in the sea, and you have to make them wear those tight-fitting three-pointers."

"Comrade Li Xiang, your thoughts are very dangerous."

"Wherever there is danger, this is called advancing with the times."

Li Duoyu's fishing boat moves very slowly. If he goes back too early, he won't be able to dock until the tide rises.

Zhang Defa on the boat suddenly asked: "By the way, Duoyu, there is a class reunion tomorrow. When do you plan to go?"

"Huh? Tomorrow?"

If Zhang Defa hadn't said anything, Li Duoyu would have really forgotten that Chen Ziyi had actually sent him a letter.

The fifteenth day of the tenth lunar month.

classmate reunion.

Seeing Li Duoyu's surprised expression, Zhang Defa said doubtfully: "You didn't receive it? Zi Yi should have sent you a letter too."

"received."

"If you didn't remind me, I almost forgot about this. That's not right. Aren't we elementary school classmates? It's none of your business to have a reunion with my junior high school classmates."

"Fuck, I've been putting up with you for a long time."

Zhang Defa looked at Li Duoyu with resentment: "You have been absent from class for three days and played outside all day. Do you know how many people are in our class and what their names are?"

Li Duoyu smiled awkwardly. To be honest, if he hadn't seen Chen Ziyi and the others last time, he would have probably forgotten all the names of his classmates.

If you really attend the class reunion, it will probably be really embarrassing. By then, most of them won’t even be able to name them. Seeing Zhang Defa's angry look, Li Duoyu felt that he was most likely his junior high school classmate.

"I'm joking with you, but you actually take it seriously. We are good brothers, how could I forget."

"What a ghost, you often bully and tease me, you must have forgotten it."

"How is it possible? Am I that kind of person? If I remember correctly, I was very loyal during the three years of junior high school."

"You are so righteous as hell. Back then you almost sold us all out to get the class girl. Also, our junior high school lasted for four years, not three years."

"Comrade Defa, let the past go by. I am now a good family man with a wife and children, so I don't need to keep talking about my heroic deeds back then."

Chen Wenchao on the side smiled and suddenly felt very sad. Because his parents passed away early, he didn't even finish elementary school, let alone junior high school.

Zhang Defa was also speechless. Li Duoyu's face was probably thicker than the toilet wall, so he really couldn't talk to him.

"Are you going tomorrow? If so, I will go with you."

"I have to go back and discuss this matter with Xiaoying, and I'll tell you later."

Zhang Defa glanced with disgust: "Now that I know I'm scared, are you afraid that Xiaoying will turn over your old score?"

"How is that possible? What I call respecting each other, you, who don't even have a partner, won't understand."

"cut."

"Stop talking, do you have any cigarettes? Give me one."

Li Duoyu took out a pack of Chengfeng cigarettes from his jacket pocket and threw it to him.

"How are you doing this? You can't even afford to smoke."

Zhang Defa took a drag on his cigarette: "Without a job, there is no income. At my age, I still have the nerve to ask for money from my family. I still had some savings from being a village doctor, so it would be nice to save a little."

"Would you like me to lend you some?"

"Whoever I ask to borrow money will not ask you to borrow money. If Xiaorong finds out, where will I put my face?"

Zhang Defa took a breath and asked, "Do you have a good relationship with that Chen Xiaoyun?"

Li Duoyu nodded.

"Yes, I have watched her grow up, so she can be considered my little sister."

Zhang Defa's face turned dark. He felt that he was not in the hands of a woman, but in the hands of Li Duoyu.

The two women he likes are both his little sisters.

"introduce."

Li Duoyu said disgustedly: "You are too old."

"Age is not a problem. If we go by the grade, I would still call her senior sister."

"Fuck, you are so shameless."

"You are shameless. You can't write love letters, yet you asked Zhou Xiaoying to write them for you. In the end, you married Zhou Xiaoying."

"Your uncle, how do you know that?"

"It's okay for our whole class to know."

At this moment, Li Duoyu suddenly didn't want to go to this class reunion.

Less than twenty minutes.

The fishing boat returned to Dandan Island Pier, and the tide was just high enough for his fishing boat to dock.

The pier was full of his cloves, more than two hundred baskets in total, and my father and second brother were watching from the other side of the pier.

And old man Mi, who had been catching fish for another day, heard the whistle and just wanted to get up to see whose fishing boat was back.

As soon as I stood up, I immediately felt dizzy and almost fell down. Recently, as my stomach pain became more and more painful, my body seemed to be having problems as well, and I got tired very easily.

He was also hesitating whether to go to the health center in the town to see what was going on.

After seeing Li Duoyu's fishing boat coming back, Old Man Mi waved to him and was about to ask him how much money the clove fish made in total.

What he didn't expect was that village doctor Zhang Defa got off Li Duoyu's boat. After seeing him, Old Man Mi felt a little excited for a moment.

"Defa, you are finally back."

"Uncle Mi, long time no see. Why do I feel like you've lost weight again?"

Old Man Mi said with a bitter look on his face: "Do you have any painkillers at your health station? Prescribe some for me."

Zhang Defa frowned and said, "Uncle Mi, it's been so long, haven't you gone to the hospital yet?"

"It's just an ordinary stomachache, and it's not a serious illness. If you go to the hospital, you'll be asked to check a lot of things. No matter how much money you spend, it's not enough. And the hospitalization fee is ten yuan a day, and three hundred a month. Where? I can afford to be sick."

Zhang Defa saw that he had lost a lot of weight, and his whole face felt like it was about to collapse: "Follow me to the health station."

After arriving at the health station, Zhang Defa immediately took out his stethoscope and listened.

Then, he pressed his abdomen again.

"It hurts a lot here."

Looking at the skinny Lao Mi, Zhang Defa asked: "How many pounds have you lost recently?"

"Almost eight pounds."

"What color is your poop?"

Old Man Mi frowned and said, "Why do you ask so many questions this time?"

"Don't interrupt, tell me what color your poop is."

"It's normal."

Zhang Defa didn't believe it and said directly: "Is it black and a little sticky?"

Lao Mi smiled bitterly and said, "Sure enough, after I went to college, I became really good at it. I can even guess the color of my stool."

After hearing this, Zhang Defa regretted very much that he was not tough enough and did not take old Mira to the hospital as soon as possible.

"Next Monday, I will go to the best hospital immediately, take X-rays quickly, and then go to this doctor. He is very authoritative in treating this disease."

"It's okay. Don't be so nervous. Just give me some painkillers as before."

Zhang Defa couldn't help but scolded: "Can you be kind to yourself? Why do you make so much money? You can't bear to spend a penny."

Old Man Mi sighed.

Zhang Defa's words suddenly touched his sore spot. On the surface, he seemed to be very prosperous. All his children settled in Rongcheng and became city dwellers.

But in fact, his life was not good. After his children got married, the family began to change. He really envied the old people in the village who could take care of their children.

Unlike him, if he wanted to see a grandson, he had to make a special trip to the city and look at his daughter-in-law's face.

There is really no hope for living this kind of life, so it is better to be kind to yourself and go to the square with others to play four-color cards in the future.

"Okay, I'll go to the hospital to check it out."

"Hurry up, you know, your body is your own. If you really get sick, your child might have to come back to take care of you."
