Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982

  With anticipation, the two children ate faster than anyone else. After the quick meal, they stood by the side and waited, staring at his father with burning eyes.

  Ye Yaodong felt two fiery gazes, and felt uneasy about eating.

   "Both of you go and wait outside. Find out the wire first. There seems to be some in the yard. If it's not enough, go to the old house and ask your grandfather for some."

"okay."

  Ye Chenghu ran out excitedly, and Ye Chengyang followed closely on his short legs.

  Lin Xiuqing urged him vaguely while eating, "Hurry up, or you'll run in and talk about it later, and I don't know who it looks like..."

   "My mother! Who else can I be like?"

   She couldn't help laughing.

  Ye Yaodong ate the few mouthfuls of rice left in the bowl before going out the door. The two children were not in the yard, they ran away without a trace.

  He looked around, but found only a small ball of copper wire.

  At this time, the two ran back from nowhere, and brought back an abandoned iron bucket and a small group of iron sheets.

   "Father, my grandfather gave me the iron bucket. He said that the bucket was rusty and leaky, and it was useless. I asked you to use the wide iron ring under the buttocks of the iron bucket. You don't need to circle it."

  Ye Yaodong took the discarded iron bucket in his hand, picked it up, turned it around, and looked at it, "How do I get it? It's so convenient to tell him? I don't know how to get the iron ring on the broken wooden bucket?"

   "Aren't you going to do it again?"

  Ye Chenghu is going to die of worry, why doesn't his father know anything?

  Ye Yaodong glanced at him faintly, "Is it you?"

   "I can't, if I can, I won't call you."

  Ye Yaodong frowned so much that he could kill a fly, brat, what a nuisance.

   "You have gone to the old house, why don't you just ask your grandfather to do it?"

   "Huh? It's not what you said you would do for me!"

   "You don't know how to work around at all, you idiot!"

  Ye Yaodong took the iron bucket and turned it around twice, thinking about it or forget it, this is very laborious to take off, so just make one with an iron sheet.

   There is another one, just use the iron wire you just found.

  After casually throwing the bucket to the corner, he took the iron sheet brought back by the two children, stretched it to see the length, and tried it in a circle. Indeed, it was only enough to make one.

   This rolling iron ring is composed of two parts, one is the circle made of iron sheets, and the other is the long handle that pushes the iron ring forward.

  The production of the iron ring is very simple, just use iron tongs to bend the iron sheet into a circle and fix it, the size is like the mouth of a wooden barrel.

  The iron wire is the same, bend it into a circle, and wrap it tightly. Make it as round as possible, so that it is conducive to rolling.

  Because the children are small and need to be easy to control, Ye Yaodong made them one big and one small according to their height.

  The two of them squatted in front of him when he was sitting and busying, and stared there unblinkingly.

   "Is it all right, Dad? Is the circle all right? Let me just say it's easy!"

  Ye Chenghu saw that the circle had formed, and couldn't wait to reach out to grab it, "The big one must be mine."

   "What's the rush? There's still a handle."

   "Then hurry up."

  Ye Yaodong unhurriedly put the circle on the ground, and lit a cigarette for himself first.

   After taking two puffs and flicking the cigarette **** twice, it was caught between the **** and index finger again, and then a long-handled iron hook was made with the remaining wire.

   "Okay, okay, it's finally done." Ye Chenghu couldn't wait to reach out his hand again.

  Ye Yaodong slapped it off bluntly, "What's the hurry, I'll add something later for you."

  He continued to toss around the remaining bit of wire, made a small iron ring, and put it on the iron ring.

   "See? This little circle, when you don't push it, you can hook it with a hook, hang it up and carry it on your shoulders, just like Lin Chong carrying a gourd with an iron gun, so it won't fall off."

   "Huh? Who is Lin Chong?"

   "It's in the Water Margin, that's why I told you to study hard. When you chat with people in the future, they will talk a lot. Are you all? Ah? Ah? It seems uneducated and ignorant."

  Ye Chengyang tilted his head and asked curiously: "Has Dad read a lot?"

  Crit strike! !

   "Uh... cough cough... this one is ready, you can play with it, and the next one will be ready soon."

  Ye Yaodong asked the child honestly, but was overwhelmed by the questioning, so he simply put the iron ring on him and slung it over his shoulder, just like Nezha carrying the Qiankun ring.

  Ye Chengyang stood up excitedly in an instant, "Ah, I also have an iron ring~ I'm looking for Brother Ahai~"

  Ye Chenghu saw that Ye Chengyang had already put on the iron ring and ran away, and he was very anxious, "Hurry up, Dad, Yangyang has run away..."

"More haste less speed."

  Ye Yaodong held a cigarette that was almost burning out in his hand, and took two more puffs before flicking it away, "Forget that you are at home, not at sea, it's so easy, you go over and step on it, and put out the flames."

   "Oh, why do adults have to smoke?"

  Ye Yaodong also put an iron ring on the iron ring that Ye Yaodong gave him, and he was so happy, he put it on his neck and ran out with satisfaction.

   "Hey? Wait, didn't you say you want to borrow me to play?"

   "When I have had enough fun..."

  Before the words were finished, the person had already run far away.

   "The words of men cannot be trusted, and the words of boys cannot be trusted! The words of boys cannot be trusted either!"

  Lin Xiu heard this sentence after cleaning the bowls and tidying up the stove. She just thought it was funny, "Where did you get such a deep feeling?"

   "I'll just talk casually, just for fun."

   "I thought you were cheated by some man."

   "Nonsense, I'm not a little girl."

  …

  After dismissing both of them, Ye Yaodong originally thought that the world would be quiet, and planned to go into the house to take a nap and get ready to go to sea at night, but he didn't expect that the excitement had just begun.

  He just took off his cotton-padded jacket and lay down on the bed. Before he could close his eyes, he heard laughter and laughter outside the house.

  A group of children were playing a game of rolling hoops at the door, and he knew how they played just by listening to the sound.

   Fortunately, after a while, they rolled and rolled away, otherwise they would have to get up and chase people away.

  After getting enough sleep during the day, Ye Yaodong naturally woke up energetic at night.

  I didn’t hire anyone today, just him and his father. There is no need to hire someone to drag the net. In case there is no goods to put the net, there is no need for three people, two people can handle it.

   Haven’t gone to sea for many days, the pier has been sluggish for a while, and it’s bustling again at night. Those who know each other will say hello when they meet.

  However, there are a lot of people who greeted him today?

  Every face was full of smiles, making him seem like a sweet potato. He had never felt such enthusiasm from the folks.

   I haven’t walked around the village for a few days, so it’s changed so much?

  He didn’t ask his father until he boarded the boat, “Is there any legend about me circulating in the village recently?”

The smile on Father Ye's face was still hanging there, he nodded, "I don't know who passed it on, anyway, everyone knows that you bought two shops in the city and paid the money a few days ago. Everyone in the village is praising you these days."

   "Oh, let's pass it on, it doesn't matter, it just happened to empty out the family again. But, what are you praising me for?"

   "I will go for a walk in the village tomorrow, and I will know after listening."

   "Can't you talk about it?"

   "What are you talking about, besides, your tail is up to the sky, so hurry up and set sail."

"Well, I don't talk about it anyway, I can guess it. It just means that I am promising, the prodigal son has turned around, and I have earned such a big family business in only one year. No one's children are worthy of me. After you and my mother It's going to be a great blessing..."

  Father Ye was speechless for a while, "You know all about it and still ask?"

   "Ah? Really? I'll just say it casually. These people are really nothing new. They only boast a few words. They won't say that I will definitely be an official and a boss in the future, start a company and make a fortune..."

   "Stop dreaming, just praise you casually, don't take it seriously, you still have to do what you should do."

   "You can't say a few more words to make me happy." Ye Yaodong muttered a few words, and honestly went to sail.

   Being praised by others, how can anyone be unhappy?

  He stood on the bow of the boat in high spirits, blowing against the wind. It has only been more than a year, but he is different, and the days are getting more and more hopeful.

  Actually, what he wants most now is the health and safety of his family. The money he earns is already enough to spend. As long as he doesn't get involved in pornography, gambling and drugs, his family's wealth will gradually increase anyway.

  On the sea, the sea wind was blowing, and the boat swayed with the sea wind. Although there was no wind on the shore, there were no waves on the shore.

   But the sea is different, it is open on all sides, the sound of the wind and the waves of the sea can almost cover the sound of the diesel engine, and it resounds in his ears, but as long as the fishing boat can bear it.

  The boat sailed quickly to the sea area where they used to trawle nets in the past, and hadn't been out in the sea for ten days. He thought they came out early enough today.

   Unexpectedly, after arriving at the destination, I saw that there were already boats fishing on the nearby sea.

  Is there anyone more diligent than him?

  Looking at a boat over there at a constant speed, I knew it was working, but I didn't know why it suddenly broke into his territory.

  However, the sea area is not his family’s. Others drag others, and he does his own. Just don’t interfere with each other.

   Not long after, people also found him, and everyone maintained a tacit understanding at the same time, doing their own things. They are all good citizens. As long as there is no intentional fault finding, everyone is relatively peaceful.

  Trawling nets was normal and unremarkable. Ye Yaodong saw that the first net received the goods well, so he didn't put the sticky nets for now. This was really troublesome.

  But maybe you can wait until the trawling is over, and if you still have time, you can put a dozen or twenty more, so that you can collect and release again if there is weather tomorrow.

  Even if the weather is not good, a dozen nets can be collected quickly, and they won’t stay for long.

  Ye Yaodong's abacus was crackling, and he wanted to make full use of everything. After all, he can be regarded as a debt now, although the fixed assets have increased.

  After collecting two nets, there were five or six baskets of frogfish and other kinds of fish on the boat. He originally thought that these fish would be the only ones today, and there was nothing good to buy.

   It’s just that he didn’t expect that his father had been watching the other boat all the time.

   "Dongzi, that boat is wrong, it hasn't moved for a long time."
