Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982

  Chapter 134 Soil Banana

  During dinner, everyone at the dinner table looked at Lin Xiuqing from time to time, which made her a little embarrassed.

  Mother Ye thought for a while and said: "Don't go out and talk nonsense about Ah Qing this afternoon, I don't know if it is, but it is very strict now."

   Many children are blessings. If she is pregnant, Mother Ye certainly wants her to have another one safely.

   "We know."

   "Mother, what's wrong with Third Aunt?" Ye Chenghai asked his mother curiously.

   "It's nothing, children, don't be so curious, adults have to ask everything, eat your meal quickly."

   "Humph..."

   "When picking up dishes, don't move your chopsticks back and forth in the dishes..."

   "Hurry up and eat too, dilly-dally, the food is great, right? Before when there were no dishes to accompany, you rushed to eat, how fast you ate..."

   "Is your jaw leaking? The table is full of rice, pick it up for me and eat..."

  The voices scolding the child kept ringing on the table, and Lin Xiuqing's matter was tacitly revealed temporarily.

  After it got dark and everyone went back to their houses, Ye Yaodong took out the guava he had hidden, cut it, and handed it to the two children with excited expressions.

   "Auntie gave you something to eat, don't go out and say it, otherwise Auntie won't give it to you next time."

   "Got it, Dad."

  The youngest son also nodded and echoed.

  Ye Yaodong handed the other to Lin Xiuqing, but Lin Xiuqing didn't eat it, but took it out and cut it in half, and gave him half.

"eat together."

  He took it with a smile, and began to eat it in big mouthfuls, and Lin Xiuqing also ate it.

   On the second day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, those who have the conditions and are more willing to kill chickens and ducks start early in the morning, and there are more hawkers peddling meat dishes in the village.

  Usually everyone is reluctant to spend money on food and drink, and they are more willing to do so during the Chinese New Year.

  Even Ye’s mother heard someone selling fish balls, so she hurried out and asked them to pick them up.

  The fish **** are round and in line with the meaning of Mid-Autumn Festival reunion, and they are still very popular in their village.

  As soon as the hawkers put down their burdens at the door of their house, a group of women who heard the sound surrounded them and wanted to buy.

  Mother Ye bought a catty of mackerel fish **** and a catty of cuttlefish balls, and planned to cook them together to cater for everyone's taste.

   These two kinds of fish **** are under the tongue of the women, and the hawker agreed to sell them at the same price, 25 cents a catty, otherwise the cuttlefish **** would be 2 cents more expensive.

  Rural women are very budget-conscious.

Ye Yaodong had nothing to do, so he moved a stool and sat at the door with his feet up early in the morning. The family is full of people who can work, so he has nothing to do, but he is used to being busy during this period, and suddenly he has nothing to do. He is a little uncomfortable.

  He thought for a while and then yelled to his wife in the room, "I'm going out for a walk, I'll be back in a while."

   "Come back early for lunch."

  He responded and walked out, wandering casually.

Usually, the women in the village sit at the front or back door to weave their nets, making the village seem quiet and peaceful. Today, every household is moving, and the whole village is alive. The children know that they will have a big meal for the festival, and they all shout excitedly at the door. Jump again.

  Ye Yaodong strolled leisurely on the path in the village, but accidentally saw Xiaoxiao holding a machete in front of him, and he quickly stopped.

   "Xiao Xiao, where are you going?"

   "There is not enough firewood at home, my father sent me to cut some firewood, so as not to burn it at night, where are you going?"

   "I have nothing to do, just walk around."

   "That's right, go chop wood with me..."

  Ye Yaodong immediately turned around and left when he heard the words, but he couldn't get away in time, and he jumped up from behind and grabbed his neck, "It's all here, why are you going? Let's go together!"

   "Oh~ let go, I wouldn't have stopped you if I knew it earlier." Ye Yaodong slapped his hand off, it was too short, and it hurt his neck.

   "It's late, we have a companion when we go together."

   "Why don't you ask your brother to go with you? Don't you have three brothers above you, why is it your turn?"

"My eldest brother is killing ducks, my second brother is weaving bamboo flats, my third brother has been sailing with the big boat for a few days, my father has gone to the field to **** taro, and the women are busy washing vegetables. I am the only one idle at home now. Is it? My father couldn't see that I was idle, so he sent me to chop wood."

  Understood, he is also idle at his house.

   "Forget it, if you are idle, you are also idle. Let me take a walk with you."

"now it's right."

   The two walked up the road and chatted, walked to the opposite side of the road, found a small road and went up the mountain.

  Xiaoxiao was looking for dead branches to pick them up, but Ye Yaodong had his eyes on a few banana trees that occasionally grew on the mountain, and a bunch of bunches of bananas hung all over the trees.

  He turned around this tree, and ran around that tree, all hanging too high, without long hooks, unable to bend the big handful of plantains.

   "What are you doing? Want to pick soil bananas?"

   They call plantains soil bananas.

   "Yeah, don't you think it's very eye-catching with a bunch of them hanging on the top, it's clearly seducing me!" Ye Yaodong kept looking up at the banana trees, looking for any ones that grow lower and can be obtained.

   "I'll come back later with a bamboo pole tied to a hook. How do I pick it now? Help me pick up branches."

   "You pick it up first, I'll go elsewhere."

   "Grass, you are so unreliable! You promised to help me chop firewood, and I went to pick the bananas myself."

   "Of course bananas are more important than you!" His voice came from afar.

   "I have it too."

  Ye Yaodong turned around, and finally found a tree with a string that he could get, and there happened to be a soil **** next to this tree.

  He stood on the soil slope, stood on tiptoe and grabbed its stem with his hand, and bent it down, but a lot of it was a bit difficult to break off.

   "Xiao Xiao, Xiao Xiao, bring your machete here."

   "You don't help chop firewood, but you still use my guy..." Xiao Xiao came over while cursing, "Why do you need a machete?"

   "Huh? Have you found something you can get? I'll cut it, I'll cut it..."

   "Is there anything else I can get? Look again, it seems that there are three more..."

  Ye Yaodong looked at him contemptuously, "Didn't you still dislike me for not helping you chop firewood, and asked you to come here with a machete? Now you want to pick bananas again?"

   "Hey, didn't Zhuge Liang say that, now and then, you go and look for it again."

  Ye Yaodong looked at him in bewilderment, what did Zhuge Liang say?

   "What are you looking at, look for it quickly? Either leave the machete for you. You are taller. I'll go to Aguang's house to get a hook."

   After speaking, he threw down the machete and ran away. Just now, he disliked him for not helping and delaying things, but now he is more active than him!

   Dog Day's!

  Ye Yaodong didn't worry about whether Zhuge Liang was Zhuge Liang, he put a bunch of plantains in the corner first, picked up the machete and went up to find it.

   Unexpectedly, he found another short one, that is, Basho is not as big as before, but it doesn't matter, he doesn't mind, as long as there is something to gain.

   This plantain tree was relatively short, so he cut off another bunch by breaking off the stem. Then he stood on the **** and saw two or three banana trees growing on one stem, but it was not easy to reach.

He glanced around, trying to see if there were any simple tools, until he looked at the surrounding trees, pondered for a while, then his eyes lit up, turned around and cut a thicker branch, and cut off the extra branches , leaving only one bottom branch.

  Cut the branch into a shape like a compass, Ye Yaodong took the branch and hooked it directly to the series of plantain stems, then swiped down, pulled it forward, and the whole plantain stem leaned in front of him.

  After he caught it, he took a machete and cut off a stem, and got several more plantains!

   "Dongzi, Dongzi, where are you?"

   "Over here!"

  Xiaoxiao held a long bamboo pole with a hook tied to it, and ran over excitedly, followed by Ah Guang.

   "How much did you chop?"

   "There are quite a few strings. If you want, you can score a few more points."

   "Use this, use this", holding up the hook like a small offering of treasure, "I just tied one up temporarily, and I will use it first, I will hook the banana and you can chop it."

   "You don't chop firewood anymore? If you don't chop firewood, how can you go back to work later? You are such a big man, don't be beaten by your father taking off his pants." Ye Yaodong teased him.

   "Nervous, I won't run away? I'm already a father... Forget it, chop it up now, and pick up some branches for me when you're free. Bring some bananas back and just plug their mouths."

Ah Guang wandered around and glanced around, "There are not many trees here, why not cut them next to my house? My dad planted a few trees randomly a few years ago, and now I can pick them. Someone planted them casually here, too. It’s okay to cut one or two strings, but if there are too many, people will jump.”

  Ye Yaodong looked at the earthy bananas at his feet, and then cut down three trees, one with one or two bunches, it should be okay, right? There are still many hanging on it.

   "Okay, just go to your place, I have enough of these, go to your place to chop some, and bring it back to Xiaoxiao."

   "If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't run around, just walk around and go to the back mountain." Xiaoxiao carried the bamboo pole and walked down again.

   Ah Guang helped Ye Yaodong get those bananas together, "I have quite a lot at my place. You have so many people in your family and you have so many children. You should chop some more and bring them back."

   "Why chop so much? I can't finish eating all at once, let it go bad, and go to your place to chop after eating."

   "That's up to you."

  The three of them walked excitedly to the back mountain. The local people commonly called it the back mountain, but it was actually called Lingang Mountain, which was just beside A Guang's house.

  The three of them had cheap hands, pulling up leaves and weeds along the road as they walked. Ye Yaodong looked at the reeds by the roadside, grabbed two of them, touched them, and then stretched out to scratch his little neck.

   "Fuck, what are you doing?"

   "Try to see if it will shed hair. It's okay to pull it out a little and tie it back to a broom."

"You can?"

   "I won't, my grandma will, forget it, she's already old."

"What's the matter? She seems to be in good health. She can move freely. She is not deaf or blind. Find something to do for her! The old man can't be too idle. If he is free, he can't sit still and wants to pick up a hoe. .”

  This is true!

   "I'll pull it out a little later, just as the things in the new house haven't been bought yet."

A Guang reminded: "If you want to pull it out, you should pull it out as soon as possible. I think it will be pulled out later. In the past few days, I have seen several people run away from Shanpu. They all made a selection and sold it. It can be sold."

  Some things that grow randomly on the mountain, in the hands of the villagers, many of them can be turned into treasures.

"knew."

   I changed my pen name, don’t be surprised.

   It was originally called "a glass of ice lemonade", but now it is called "rice with rice"
