Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982

  Before Ye Yaopeng's family started to take pictures, many folks made reservations to take pictures later.

  The photographer was so happy that he couldn't even close his mouth, and he almost couldn't handle it.

  Ye Yaodong stood beside him with his hands in his pockets, smiled and yelled to help: "I want to take pictures, wait a minute, let's not disturb the master first."

After speaking, he said to the photographer again: "Look, I told you that the folks will definitely be moved. Let me tell you, you might as well stop guarding the shop all day long. It's almost Chinese New Year. , although there are many people coming and going in the market, it is really better to go to a few villages."

"It's almost Chinese New Year, and everyone's money is loose, and they are willing to spend the one or two yuan. As long as there is one person who wants to take pictures, many people will follow suit. It's better than keeping a few people in your shop every day. Or, stay at the store for half a day in the morning, and go out to the village for half a day in the afternoon..."

   "Hey, you're right... you'll get one dollar less later..."

   Sending photos just by talking about it, can it be reduced? Pretty good at being a human being.

  Ye Yaodong saw that he was also very busy, and the camera was adjusted, so he didn't bother them anymore. It happened that Ah Qing came to pay the money and called him back for dinner.

  The two boys were a bit reluctant to leave, and looked back at each step.

   "I've finished taking pictures by myself, what else is there to see? I changed my clothes when I went home, and I will come out to watch after dinner later. There is still time."

  When Ye Chenghu heard that he was going to change his clothes, he felt a little reluctant. He lowered his head to look at his body, and grabbed the corner of his clothes again, so awkward that he didn't even want to go home.

   "Can I not change it? I will wear this one today."

  The new clothes look great. My friends haven’t seen them yet. He hasn’t walked around yet, so he’s about to change them. It’s a pity.

  Ye Chengyang looked at this and that, with a dazed and bewildered expression on his face.

  Ye Yaodong quickly picked him up and strode into the house, leaving the eldest son for his mother to educate.

  Lin Xiuqing put her hands on the back of Ye Chenghu's head and pushed him into the house.

   "Don't be naughty, these are the clothes you will wear during the Chinese New Year, just take pictures today, take them out in advance and put them on for you to take pictures, quickly take them back to the room and put them away, otherwise it will get dirty later, see if I won't hit you."

  Ye Chenghu walked slowly, very unwillingly, under his mother's urging, to walk into the house.

  After Ye Chengyang changed his clothes and went out, he finally couldn't bear his mother's **** and took off his clothes and pants.

   But when it was time to put on old clothes for him, he crossed his arms and was very angry.

Lin Xiuqing was annoyed and funny, "The Chinese New Year will be coming soon, and you can wear it after the Chinese New Year, or you won't have any new clothes for the New Year. Now this set was made for you last year, and it's still very new. You couldn't make it a year ago." A new set of clothes, all left by your older brothers and sisters, but you have picked them up now? Don’t look down on last year’s clothes? Then don’t wear them, just hug the quilt in the room..."

   After speaking, Lin Xiuqing didn't get used to him, so Lin Xiuqing put the clothes on the bed directly, wearing them if she liked, and wrapping herself up in the quilt if she didn't wear them.

  In the main room, Mother Ye was cooking, the food was full of fragrance, and Ye Yaodong, Father Ye, and the others all came to the table to eat.

  The old lady saw Lin Xiuqing coming out with her clothes alone, but Ye Chenghu was nowhere to be seen, and asked suspiciously, "Where's the child?"

   "Tell him to change out of his new clothes. He is throwing a temper tantrum. Leave him alone. We will eat ours. When we get hungry, we will naturally put on our clothes and come out."

   Sure enough, before the meal was finished, Ye Chenghu put on his clothes disheveledly, moved to the table little by little, sat in his place, and waited there, but no one paid him any attention.

  When he was about to cry, the old lady smiled and helped him get up to serve the meal.

"Let's not talk about new clothes in the past. It's hard to wear unpatched clothes. The only unpatched clothes have to be saved when visiting relatives during the Chinese New Year. You are also wearing new clothes. How beautiful Ah, don't lose your temper, you see everyone has changed their clothes."

  Ye Chenghu looked up and looked around. Indeed, everyone had changed into new clothes. Ye's father and Ye's mother also took off their new cotton jackets and put them aside so as not to get dirty.

Ye Yaodong glanced at the eldest son, "Leave him alone, this year is just getting better, and he's a little bit of a drifter. Give him some clothes when he needs them, and just wear ragged clothes for the New Year, and the other kids will be fine." Wear new clothes and be happy, he is a joke for people to wear old clothes by himself."

  Ye Chenghu was aggrieved and did not dare to make a sound. Seeing the rice in front of him, he just lowered his head and slowly pulled up.

  The adults don’t care about him either. Every child has the psychology of wearing new clothes. No, everyone has it. Adults also like to wear clothes, and no one cares about it.

Father Ye asked Ye Yaodong: "This trip caught up with the good weather again. I went there for five or six days and came back with six or seven thousand catties, right? Including the dried fish that was dried yesterday, we can make another one this time." Thousands of catties."

"Well, the quantity delivered before the year must be enough, and there are still a few thousand catties left. If there are too many, I will transport them to the store in the city for storage, so as not to have no place to put them at home. If the army needs them after the year , let’s talk about it next year.”

   "That year ago, we took the time to set up a stall. After a few days, we could sell a little. For the Chinese New Year, everyone wants to buy New Year's goods, and everything sells well."

  Mother Ye also interjected: "I heard that some people in our village also sell dried fish at a stall in the next-door village, and at a stall in the town. I heard that they can sell a little per day."

   "How much can it sell? In the surrounding villages, who can lack fish to eat?"

  Father Ye turned to Ye Yaodong after refuting, "We still have to go to the city."

  Ye Yaodong nodded, "It would be great if it could be sold to inland cities. Inland cities don't rely on the sea. Dried fish or some dried seafood should also sell well. Unfortunately, there is no way, and we don't understand this."

   "Anyway, where you have a store in the city, you sell dried fish regularly, and people should come to your door at that time."

   "What's the matter? The shop is no longer rented? Are you still selling dried fish at home?" Ye Mu interrupted quickly when she heard this.

"Isn't there two? Dongzi wants to rent one, and keep one first. After all, we have a lot of dried fish at home. It would be good if we can sell it in the store. It is more cost-effective than renting out, and there is no need to be outside in the wind and sun." of."

   "Then you still need to hire someone? Don't worry? Just show the store and things to others, and we don't have anyone there..."

  Mother Ye frowned, a little worried, in this case, it would be better to rent it out.

  Ye Yaodong was in a hurry, and told his mother on the way, the plan to ask the father-in-law to visit the shops in the city, and the reasons.

  Mother Ye frowned, but didn't say anything.

   "If the in-laws are willing, it's okay, and it saves the need to invite outsiders. It happens that he is also old, so he can go to the city to enjoy the blessings. It's good to leave the work in the field and on the mountain to the two uncles."

  …

  The family chatted and gathered around the store to discuss.

  The two children have long been impatient to hear adults say things they don’t understand. It’s still so lively outside. Ye Chengyang ate early and left early. After licking all the rice in the bowl, he immediately left the bowl and chopsticks and slipped away.

  Ye Chenghu was anxious and ate quickly, he had already forgotten the depression just now, for fear that he would not be able to catch up with the excitement, they could hear the noise outside, and they could hear it from inside the house, it seemed that there were more and more people.

   Ye Yaodong seldom went out to watch the excitement after eating, so he just took a walk.

  At the door of Sister-in-law Ye’s and Second-sister-in-law’s house, three floors inside and three floors outside have been surrounded by folks who come to watch the excitement after dinner and want to take pictures by the way.

  It is rare for the village to be so lively, especially the children, who are bouncing around, making the atmosphere more lively.

   At this time, Ye Yaodong also saw a few familiar friends, and everyone came to join in the fun.

   They greet each other and stand together to chat.

   I just didn't expect that the mouse that I hadn't seen for many days after leaving that day also came over.

  Ye Yaodong nodded expressionlessly, just as a greeting. Mouse saw Ah Guang, although he was a little embarrassed, he still came over with a smile.

   "Dongzi, have you ever taken a picture of your family?"

   "Just took a picture, why, you also came to take a picture?"

"Yeah, I thought the family had never taken a photo before, and they all came to the village, and they planned to take a photo, but the photo is too expensive, and there are quite a lot of people, so I don't know what to wait for. when…"

   Everyone didn't answer the conversation, and they all chattered along with him.

  After the incident of hiding, everyone also looked down on him a little bit, cowardly, timid, not like a man, and couldn't help him up even if he wanted to.

   After talking for a while, seeing that no one answered, he hecked a few times in embarrassment, said a few words casually, then made an excuse and walked to the side.

   Everyone watched him walk away before talking.

   "I can't afford it, it's a waste of Aguang. You even rented him for half a month. I heard that he still earned less."

   "It doesn't matter, just take a look at people's hearts. Anyway, my family has no loss, and it saves me from visiting my house to work every three days. It's quite embarrassing. It's hard to refuse if you want to refuse."

   "It's fine as it is now, and it's not easy for him to ask you to pick him up again, so as to reduce future losses."

  Ye Yaodong changed the subject and asked curiously: "Then your family's current boat or go to sea by yourself?"

"Yeah, you big boss pays money, of course I have to help you work. Anyway, I won't be there for a few days. My father and I will take turns to receive the goods at home, and then invite one of us to go to sea together, or entrust the boat to others If you have to share half of it, I have to earn more of your money, how can I distribute it to others?" A Guang said happily.

   "The big boss of wool, which big boss is like me, who spends all day dirty back and forth on the sea. I earn hard money. I finally developed a way of making money, and I will share it with you."

   "This is called blessings and sharing, and you are in trouble! Good brother!"

   "Pull it down a few times!"

   "Then will you still accept it after the next year? Is the amount collected now enough?"

   "Not sure yet, let's see it later."
