Back to the small fishing village in 1982

Chapter 1395 Liar
Lin Xiuqing had just bought something and placed it on the table. When Ye Xiaoxi saw it, she wanted to go immediately.

Ye Yaodong thought that she had just recovered from an illness, so he tried his best to satisfy her. Today happened to be a good day, so he took her to become his disciple.

She had already kowtowed, so she didn't need to kowtow again when she was taken to the master's house. Ye Yaodong just said something nice and asked the old man to teach her a little.

Who knows how long she can learn it? It's possible that she will just be interested for a short time, after all, she is only a little kid.

Ye Yaodong was also very sincere, and the gift he brought was also very generous, about a hundred yuan. When the tuition fee is enough, he will give it as an annual gift. No one would be unwilling to do so.

What's more, people knew his name, so they politely accepted Ye Xiaoxi and arranged to bring him over every afternoon.

Ye Xiaoxi stayed that day, jumping around happily, and waved goodbye to him without any reluctance at all.

Ye Yaodong thought that he could bring the child over now that he was at home, and when he was not at home, he would leave the matter to his two sons.

Anyway, just tell them to bring her over every afternoon. When the two sons go to school in the afternoon, they can bring their sister over with them, and then get out of school. After school, they can come and pick up their sister and go home together. It will be like asking the old man to help take care of the child.

This arrangement is not bad. It kills two birds with one stone and saves Lin Xiuqing from having to distract herself from looking after the children.

This is where I can take care of his children and teach them the erhu, which they are interested in.

The couple don't have to worry about picking up and dropping off the children, they can just leave it to their two sons.

Ye Yaodong told her to be obedient and come to pick her up in the evening, then he took his two sons back home.

"Remember? My sister will learn the erhu here from now on. If you go to school at noon, send her here, and pick her up after school. Remember?"

"I remember. I know. We often come to this village to play."

"Which village nearby have we not been to? I've found it for you. We can go there with our eyes closed."

"Well, if I'm not at home, you are the only two men in the family. You must take good care of the family, look after your sister, and help your mother more. Do you understand?"

"I know. Dad, when are you going to leave?"

"In four or five days, if you behave well and your mother praises you on the phone, I will bring you gifts and give you a lot of New Year's money when I go back home for the New Year."

Ye Chenghu patted his chest happily and assured, "Don't worry, Dad. We will definitely take good care of the family, take good care of my sister and help my mother."

Ye Chengyang also held his head high and said, "Dad, just prepare to give us a lot of lucky money during the Chinese New Year."

Ye Yaodong agreed with a smile, "Okay, then it depends on your performance."

The two brothers were happily running and playing in front.

When he returned home, Ye's father was waiting for him at the door.

"I've been waiting for you for so long, why did you just come back?"

"what?"

"Didn't you tell me at lunch that we would probably wait until the beginning of winter before leaving? Someone asked me again in the afternoon, and I told them about it. Then everyone was worried about the weather. It's been getting colder recently, and the wind and waves are bigger. They were worried that it would be harder to travel if we waited until the beginning of winter. So we thought that if the weather was good one day recently and the wind was not too strong at sea, we could go up there. We don't have to wait until the beginning of winter, otherwise it might take longer and longer."

"That's true. It makes sense. Let's pay more attention to the radio at night and listen to the weather forecast. If the radio reports that the wind level at sea is low in the next two days, then we'll go for it in the next two days."

Father Ye nodded, "I thought so too, and I think it makes sense. Then let Ah Qing pack your clothes for you today, and bring all the thick clothes and thick cotton-padded jackets you need. The weather forecast may say that the wind and waves will be low tomorrow, so you can leave at night."

"Ok."

Everyone is still reluctant to give up the wealth and splendor above.

After staying at home for a week, I am eager to go out and earn money.

If Ye Xiaoxi hadn't been sick with a fever, they would have been there in the past two days.

If we delay it for another four or five days, some people will indeed be unhappy. The key is that if we let them go up by themselves, they won't dare to just sail away with a few people.

After all, I feel safer following him, so I still want him to leave as soon as possible.

Saying that you are worried about the weather and the wind and waves is a good excuse and it is also in line with the actual situation.

It would be good for him to go up earlier, so he didn't object.

Since everyone is eager to set off early, let's take a look at the weather forecast for the next few days.

Otherwise it might take too long. If we go up now, we will have to come back in two and a half months.

"Then I have to tell the others quickly and ask them to get ready. Otherwise, they will say that we left at the last minute and didn't tell them in advance, causing them to wait for us until now."

"Talk to your brother, Guang, and your friend. I also need to notify the workers here and ask them to get ready, so that you don't have to wait for others if you need to leave at the last minute."

After saying this, Father Ye left in a hurry.

Ye Yaodong had no choice but to run and inform everyone else.

Then I also told A-Qing to prepare some clothes and luggage for him in advance.

Lin Xiuqing originally thought that she could stay at home for at least four or five days, but now she could leave at any time, just like a spy, always on standby.

The old lady also kept mumbling, "Why are you in such a hurry to go on a long journey? Why not go on the beginning of winter? At least you can eat some tonic food before you go..."

Lin Xiuqing said: "How about you kill the chicken now?"

"Yes, I will kill them now, one every day..."

There was work to do again, so the old lady stopped complaining, grabbed a handful of rice bran and went out to catch chickens.

Lin Xiuqing also began to rummage through boxes and drawers to pack his clothes and the food he was going to take with him.

When it was time for dinner in the evening, Ye's mother came again with her almanac.

"Dongzi, I've shown you that we can't go out on the 15th. The 16th is a very bad day, and everything is not going well. Either you can only go tomorrow, the 14th, or you can only go on the 17th, the beginning of winter..."

The old lady and Lin Xiuqing quickly put down the work at hand and walked towards Ye's mother. The three heads were put together, staring at the book in Ye's mother's hand and studying it.

"Indeed, only fourteen or seventeen..."

"Then stay a few more days..."

Ye Yaodong calmly drank his tea and said, "Don't study your book anymore. Check the wind speed level in the evening weather forecast. Consider the practical first, then the metaphysics."

"I'm just telling you."

"I looked through the calendar and already knew."

The old lady suddenly asked, "Lixiang, would you like to teach me how to read?"

Mother Ye turned her head sharply and asked, "I'll teach you how to read?"

Ye Yaodong almost spit out the tea in his mouth. He is over eighty years old and can't read? He still asks his mother, who is half-baked, to teach him.

The old lady smiled at her ingratiatingly.

Mother Ye said angrily, "You don't learn what you should learn, and you try your best to make progress in what you shouldn't learn. You can't even teach the people around you, and you want me to teach the old ones?"

"You are already half buried in the ground, and you still want to learn? What to learn? I don't know the words Amitabha, it should be your turn to teach me."

It’s strange to say, the old lady can’t read, but she can recite scriptures and read the text, which is also magical.

Ye Yaodong was thinking about buying her a tape recorder and tapes during the Chinese New Year so that she could listen to the tapes, look up the scriptures, and then recite along.

"Amazing, mom, you can become a teacher?"

"Are you kidding? I now know two or three hundred words. It's hard to write, but I can still read it." Ye's mother is very proud when talking about this.

"Yes, you have made great progress. The organization needs people like you who are diligent and eager to learn."

Lin Xiuqing joked: "The old lady is also very hardworking and studious now."

Ye's father came to eat. After hearing what happened at the door, he felt it was not appropriate for him to go in at this time, so he sat down at the door.

But some of the sleeves were still discovered by the sharp-eyed mother Ye.

"Why don't you come in now? What have you done wrong?"

"How did I do something wrong? You won't let anyone sit at the door?"

"I see that you look like you have done something wrong and you are lacking confidence and feeling guilty, so you don't dare to come in."

"You have to say something even if I'm not right. What about when I'm right?"

After saying this, Father Ye quickly changed the subject and looked at Ye Yaodong, "Have you packed everything?"

"Packed up."

"If you have some important documents or something, just leave them at home and don't take them with you."

Ye Yaodong didn't say anything, just gave him a look: Do you need to tell me this?
The change of topic was too abrupt and not smart at all.

It was only when Lin Xiuqing shouted that it was time to eat that the topic was interrupted.

After dinner, Ye's father did not leave. He stayed with him, sitting at the door and chatting with neighbors.

It gets dark early in winter and not many people are outside, but after dinner, there are still people coming and going and chatting.

Recently we basically talk about when to leave, but today we talked about the weather instead, or asked each other if we had packed our luggage.

As soon as 7 o'clock in the evening came and the TV announced the time, Ye Yaodong pushed the children aside, switched the TV channel to CCTV, and listened to the news for a while.

As soon as 7:30 arrives, listen to the weather forecast on time. Now the weather forecast only broadcasts the provincial capital, so the accuracy is questionable and it can only be used as a reference.

Most people would get up at night to take a look and feel the wind and waves before deciding whether to go or not.

When Ye's father heard that it would be sunny tomorrow and the sea waves would be level 3, he said that everyone should get up at night to take a look. No problem, they would set off tonight. The earlier they went, the earlier they could earn money.

"Okay, since we're all in a hurry to go up, let's do it tonight."

Although everyone was waiting for him voluntarily, it was also because of him that no one dared to leave and kept waiting there, and he felt embarrassed to delay any longer.

"Okay, I guess everyone is watching the weather forecast in groups of three or four. I'll go talk to them."

"it is good."

The three children gathered around at this time, and Ye Xiaoxi climbed directly onto his lap and sat on it.

"Dad, are you leaving?"

"Dad, didn't you say it would take a few days?"

"Give me a massage on the shoulders and legs, otherwise I will leave at night and I won't have a chance to perform for you tomorrow."

The three of them immediately became active, one on the left and one on the right, massaging his shoulders, while another one was massaging his legs.

"Dad, you said you would take me to the circus when I recovered..."

"Well, do you still remember?"

Ye Xiaoxi just stared at him, waiting for his explanation.

"This... this plan can't keep up with the changes. I originally thought I could stay for another four or five days, so I could take you to see it."

She was already starting to get angry.

"How about this? I'll take you to see it when I come back for the New Year?"

"No, you're lying."

"This is an emergency for me. So many uncles, aunts, and grandpas are waiting for you because you are sick. The departure has been postponed for several days. We will postpone it again..."

"Tell them to go by themselves!"

"Your father is very powerful now, and everyone wants to follow him."

"But you promised to take me to the city, circus, you lied!"

Ye Yaodong felt a little headache for a moment. He was sincere when he said this and he was not just trying to appease her.

"Well, you didn't see the Lantern Festival last year..."

"What Lantern Festival? What are you watching behind my back?"

Ye Xiaoxi raised her voice and became even angrier!
It turned out that he secretly left her behind to watch all this excitement.

The two brothers were making faces and laughing secretly, they were so happy.

But I don’t dare to provoke her this time. The last time I provoke her, she got sick.

"Listen to me, don't get excited." Ye Yaodong held the child on his lap and continued to coax him, "You didn't see the Lantern Festival last year, so I'll take you to see the lanterns this year, do you want to? It's very lively, and there are many people."

"If you want to..."

Ye Chenghu whispered: "Dad, you promised us to ride in the float..."

Ye Xiaoxi shouted: "I want one too!"

"You don't want to, let your brother go, you can follow your parents, they will take you to watch the fun, the streets will be full of people, you won't be able to see them if you are on the float."

She hesitated for a moment, "Then...then I will follow you."

"Pink pinky." Ye Yaodong stretched out his little finger.

Ye Xiaoxi slapped his hand away and said, "I don't want to make a pinky promise with you. You've lied to me."

"Ahem... not this time."

I went out in the afternoon and got a beautiful manicure. This one is a touch-up. There is another one before 12 o'clock in the evening.
