Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982

  Chapter 24 Picking Corn

  Lin Xiuqing looked at his actions and quickly asked, "Where are you taking your son?"

   "I didn't go anywhere, I went to help grandma pick corn."

   "Pick all of them, or just a little? Shall I go and help?"

Ye Yaodong looked at the old lady behind her, she was only holding a basket in her hand, "Pick some, didn't I say yesterday, just keep it for your own food, and tell grandma not to sell it. Pick a few and come back, you Go about your business."

   It was rare for Ye Mu to see him working hard, and she also said kindly, "Pick a little more today, don't peel the skin, and cook it with the skin in the evening, so that Dad and the others can take it to the sea as a snack."

   "Then take the sack and pack it, and pack about 20 of them back."

   "By the way, pick a few more vegetables and melons, and bring them to eat at sea?" Mrs. Ye also said.

"knew."

   Waiting for the old lady to take the sack, Ye Yaodong carried his son and walked with her to the entrance of the village. This is two directions to the sea.

  The old lady walked slowly, and he also accommodated her footsteps. He walked slowly and looked around. All he saw along the way were women sitting at the door weaving nets, and children running around.

  The seven children of their family were also running down the side slope. The youngest son in his arms saw that everyone was here, and shouted happily: "Brother~sister~"

   "Ah, dad, why are you here? Where are you going?"

  Ye Chenghu also saw his father and younger brother, and hurriedly called for someone, but he didn't look at his feet. One accidentally slipped and fell, and his buttocks slipped to his father's feet while sitting on the ground.

   But he didn't cry, he just yelled a few words, then stood up and patted his buttocks, "Oh, it hurts like hell, luckily it's the buttocks."

  Ye Yaodong's mouth twitched, the real leather is real!

  The old lady also stepped forward and patted his buttocks, "Walk slowly, you need to watch the road, ah, there is a hole, go back and ask your mother to mend it for you."

   "Ah, don't you want it? My mother will beat me up, and I want grandma to make it up for me. Where are you and grandma going?"

   "Go pick corn and vegetables!"

   "Aww~ I'm going too!"

"I also need to go!"

   "We're going too!" Excited ones expressed their desire to follow.

   "The buttocks are all exposed, why don't you mend your pants first when you go home?"

   "No, I'm going to pick corn, vegetables and melons first, and I'll make up later when I get home." After speaking, he ran to the entrance of the village. It didn't matter if there was a hole in his buttocks, and he didn't even think about covering it.

  Others also rushed forward screaming happily.

   "Slow down, be careful not to fall..." the old lady called out worriedly from behind.

  One is a belt, and a group is also a belt, Ye Yaodong doesn't care, "Leave them alone, just be careful not to fall."

   "Father, hurry up, hurry up, brother, run away."

  Ye Yaodong patted his youngest son's buttocks, he couldn't speak well, and wanted to play with them, "What's the hurry, I'll catch up in a while."

  The three-point land across the road from the entrance of the village was originally a **** overgrown with weeds, but it was cultivated little by little when his grandfather was there.

  His grandfather is gone, so his father will help the old lady plant, and the old lady can't stay idle, helping her plant, and she herself has to go back and forth twice a day, for fear of things being stolen.

   "Don't pick indiscriminately, don't pick the unripe ones." Seeing that several children had started breaking the corn, Ye Yaodong hurriedly stopped it.

   "Oh, we know how to pick corn. We know that only when the whiskers behind the tail of the corn are black can we pick it!" The oldest Ye Chenghai answered, he was already twelve years old.

  Several children were submerged as they walked through the corn bushes. The youngest, Ye Chengyang, also struggled to get down. Ye Yaodong put him down and let him play by himself. He took the sack from the old lady and asked Ye Chenghai to pack it.

   "Enough, first pick 20, and each of you can pick 3, don't pick too much, come back tomorrow morning."

   "Ah, don't you want to break a few more?" Ye Chenghai looked at the two corns in his hand with some regret, and could only break one more.

   "Just pick a few a day and eat them. If you pick them all, you will sell them, and you will have nothing to eat."

   "Forget it, let's break a few a day."

There are many people and the efficiency is high. In a short while, they picked the corn. The old lady also picked a basket full of vegetables and melons. There are big and small ones. The small ones are as big as fists, and the big ones are like mallets. .

  Ye Yaodong carried a small bag of corn on his shoulder, and took the basket from the old lady's hand, "I'll get the things, you go slowly."

   Looking at a group of children again, "Have they all come out? One, two, three, four, five, six... Is there another one? Who? Where's Ye Chenghu?"

   "Ye Chenghu!" He raised his voice and shouted into the corn bushes.

   "I'm here, dad!" Ye Chenghu answered on the upper **** holding the corn, and then walked down with the corn in his arms.

  Ye Yaodong looked at the corn cobs he had opened with his jacket, "Picked from above?"

   "You child, why did you go to someone else's house to pick it?" The old lady looked down the road and said in a low voice.

   "Ah, don't all the corn belong to our family?"

   "Only here belongs to our family!"

  Ye Chenghu scratched his head, "I thought all the corn here belonged to our family!"

  Ye Yaodong put down the basket, and happily threw all the corn in his arms into the sack, "It's okay, as long as no one sees it. When you were young, your father thought that the whole mountain belonged to our family, so pick it as you like!"

  The old lady warned in a low voice, "Next time you can't pick other people's, and you will be scolded if you see it."

   "Not only that, but also being chased all over the mountain!"

   "Father, have you been chased by someone?"

   "Mountains and seas, you have played everything you can play, let's go, go home." Ye Yaodong carried the corn on his shoulders again!

   "Wait, there is still Yangyang!" The old lady held Ye Yaodong who was about to leave.

   "Oh yes! Almost forgot about this guy!"

  He looked around, but he didn't see the younger son, so he asked the children to look for it, and put down the things himself.

   "These ones are only a little fart, but they can run so well, where are they hiding?"

   "Here, Third Uncle, Yang Yang sits on the ground and eats vegetables and melons!"

  Ye Yaodong walked towards the direction of the sound, and saw his youngest son sitting on the ground, holding a vegetable melon bigger than his face, looking at everyone innocently.

  The vegetable melon was still growing on the vine, and the skin had already been eaten by him before it was picked off. It was hard for him to find a long one.

   "Why did you hide here and eat?"

   "Dad!"

Ye Chengyang lifted the vegetable melon in his hand and wanted to pass it to his father, but he was not strong enough, so he fell down as soon as he lifted it up. As a result, the vegetable melon hanging on the vine flicked and hit his forehead. He couldn't sit still and fell down. on all fours...

   "Hahaha~"

   "Hahahaha ~ idiot ~"

   Several children gloated mercilessly!

  Ye Yaodong also couldn't laugh or cry as he looked at his youngest son who was not crying or fussing on the ground, and even turned over, using his hands and feet to get up.

   "The whole body is covered in dirt, you are so dirty, you and your brother will be scolded together when you go back."
