Back to the small fishing village in 1982

Chapter 1442 The Letter Arrived

"When you go out tomorrow, why don't you stop by the post office to see if there's any letter for you? It's been half a month."

"also."

Although he had no hope, Ye Yaodong didn't want to miss the letter.

It was finally sent, along with letters from three children, but who would have thought that he would have to go back.

Then I will just feel lonely.

But I was destined to return disappointed. Mailing letters is not that fast these days, and they even cross provinces.

He went to see it twice in a week but saw nothing, so he had to give up.

Because Ye Yaodong was worried about his father, he took him with him when delivering goods these days to prevent him from making too much money and making the wrong delivery.

But there is no restriction on him going out to take jobs during his free time during the day. After all, it cannot prevent his old father from making progress, and working hard to make money is a good thing.

When he met Lin Jishang this week, he mentioned the matter of buying a boat ticket to him. Initially, Lin Jishang refused and said it was not necessary.

But he said that he also had more than ten tons of cargo to take back, and there were three other people including A Guang, and his nephew also wanted to go back. With so many people and so much cargo, they couldn't take the boat anymore, so they had to do things in a businesslike manner and buy tickets to handle the freight transportation.

After hearing this, Lin Jishang did not refuse. He directly wrote the order for him and followed the procedures. He even jokingly said that his business was taken care of.

Ye Yaodong also booked a return ticket to save trouble.

This is a good thing for you, me and everyone.

One is convenient, and the other makes money.

A Guang and the other two returned with the fresh-collecting boat a day in advance. After arriving, they went back to rest, but he continued to deliver goods until the middle of the night.

Fortunately, the cargo ship will leave at 9:10-6 o'clock tomorrow. He only needs to arrange people to load the two tractors in advance. He doesn't need to get up before dawn to transport the goods. He can get up after o'clock and still have time to go to the dock for loading and unloading.

The fat man, who had not been seen for several days, suddenly appeared.

Just as they got on the tractor and drove out of the gate, he was also sitting on a tractor. As soon as it stopped, he looked up and saw them also suddenly stopped.

"Huh? Where are you going so early in the morning? You didn't go out to sea? Why are you all here? What are you doing? Why are you all so gathered here all of a sudden?"

When the fat man saw that so many people had suddenly gathered together, a lot of doubts arose in his mind. He wondered what they were going to do.
Otherwise, how to explain their sudden appearance on the tractor so early in the morning? Based on his understanding of them, even if they didn't go out to sea, they should be sleeping in at this time.

"Where have you been? I haven't seen you for several days?" Ye Yaodong cursed.

"I was at home, I just went out early and came back late, so I didn't run into you. But I ran into you several times at Linji. It was obviously because some of you went out to sea, some of you slept in, so you didn't see me and you scolded me for being dead."

This is true.

In the morning, if he has nothing to do, he usually doesn't get up before 8 o'clock, which is very late for a hardworking person.

If the delivery was too late the night before, it is normal to lie down and not get up until 9 or 10 o'clock.

"Fatty, we are going home. You just stay here and be a good boy." Ah Zheng waved at him with a grin and urged Ye Yaodong to drive faster.

"What!!!"

The fat man’s eyes widened, and he felt like the sky was falling!

Ah Guang also poked his heart, "Hey, we bought tickets to go home, and you are here alone!"

The fat man quickly got out of the car and spread his hands to block their tractor.

"If you want to leave, just step over me! Fuck you, I was just busy for a few days and you left me alone. Are you still human?"

"No one is allowed to leave. You scolded the people next door and didn't even tell me when you returned home. If I hadn't come back in time, I wouldn't have known you were home. Are there any brothers like you?"

The fat man was so angry that he jumped up and down and started cursing while standing in front of their tractor.

Ye Yaodong laughed and said, "You can't stand boat rides, you feel exhausted every time you ride one. Anyway, we will only be home for half a month and then come back."

"No! You all have to go home, and of course I have to go home to find my wife and children..."

"Have you finished your work? It will take us half a month to get back home."

"I have to finish it. If I can't, there are others. My eldest nephew will keep accounts for me."

"Then come on ahead if you want. I'm also in a hurry to get to the dock now. I still have two truckloads of cargo to unload and move. You can go back and arrange things first. Anyway, the ship leaves at 9:, so you can just get to the cargo terminal at this time."

The fat man looked at them hesitantly, "Really? You're not lying to me? You're not going to run away?"

"I'm kidding you, get out of my way! How long will it take me to unload this truckload of goods? Besides, the cargo ship is not just carrying my goods. There may be other people waiting in line to transport them. Get out of my way!"

"Then why did you suddenly come home without calling me?"

"Who knows where you are? I can't see you, so how can I call you? Get out of the way."

The fat man stepped aside doubtfully, "You can't lie to an honest man like me."

Ye Yaodong was too lazy to argue with him and drove away on the tractor.

Fortunately, he had reserved enough time and could still argue with him here, otherwise he would have been dragged aside long ago.

Anyway, I told him that we would be at the freight terminal at 9:00, and it's only a little after 7 o'clock now. There's still enough time to go back and explain things.

The fat man watched the two tractors drive away, feeling so frustrated. He cursed and quickly asked the tractors to drive in and unload the goods.

It happened that he went out to buy coal briquettes early in the morning before daybreak and brought back a tractor full of coal briquettes, enough for their use in the short term.

The fruits and vegetables needed by the canteen are delivered by fixed vegetable farmers every day, so he doesn't need to worry about it, and there are dedicated people to keep accounts.

All he had to do was to have someone unload the truckload of coal briquettes quickly, and then give instructions to the person in charge of the canteen, pack up his luggage and leave.

9: was enough for him to make it in time.

Just when he was going out, he heard the sound of bicycle bells and the newspaper delivery man was shouting at the door, holding newspapers and envelopes.

"The newspaper has been delivered, along with Ye Yaodong's letter!"

The postman at the door kept repeating it, and the fat man came out and took it first. But before he could take it in, Ye's father rushed out like a gust of wind.

"There's a letter from Dongzi? Where is it?"

Father Ye asked anxiously, his eyes already looking at the fat man's hand. His hands were faster than his brain and he snatched the letter away first.

"I've been waiting and asking every day, and now it's finally here... Oops, Dongzi has already gone to the dock, I really missed him this time..."

The fat man asked curiously, "What letter is so important? Why do you ask every day? Are you worried about missing it?"

"Aqing sent Dongzi the letter that was in the newspaper from home. I've been waiting for almost a month, but I only got it today. I went to the post office to ask a few days ago, but they said there was no mail."

"I'm going to the freight terminal and will be taking the same ship as him. Can I bring it to you?"

Feng Shui turns around!
Wait until he brings it over, and Dongzi will have to beg him no matter what!

The fat man held the letter in his hand, feeling somewhat proud. This time, he was in control of his lifeline.

Father Ye nodded. "You're going to the dock? Going with me? Then you can bring it to him. Otherwise, if I waited half a month to send the letter, he wouldn't even see it. Instead, he went home. It would delay it for another half a month. It's better not to send the letter. Just leave it at home for him to pick up and read it at home. It will be faster."

The fat man slapped the envelope in his hand twice. "It can be considered that he sent this letter in vain. It was almost time to go back, and the letter just arrived. I could only take a look at it two days in advance. Such an expensive postage was wasted."

"Hurry up and send it there. Don't be late because of the traffic jam over there."

"Then lend me your bike. I can get there faster on my bike."

"I still have to ride back with you? You give me a ride?"

"How about you give me a ride? Can you carry me?"

Father Ye looked at the fat man's body and the corner of his mouth twitched. He could be given two persons, so he didn't know who would carry whom.
"I'll go push the car out."

However, when Ye's father saw that the tire underneath sank a bit after he sat on it, he looked at his body shape and felt sorry for the bicycle...

I felt really sorry for lending him my bike. I should have let him walk.

Fatty saw Ye's father standing there motionless, and hurriedly urged him, "Hurry up, uncle, otherwise it doesn't matter if Dongzi's letter can't be delivered, but don't delay me from going home."

"Do you have a bicycle?"

"Is it necessary? Why are you asking this?"

"I'm worried you've broken your bike..."

"It won't break down. The quality is good. This bicycle can weigh 500 to kilograms. It can even weigh kilograms. Just sit on it without worry."

Father Ye looked at the tire below with concern before he carefully sat on it, daring only to rub it with his buttocks for fear of damaging the bicycle tire.

But the fat man didn't care about him. Seeing that he seemed to have already sat on the bike, he just rode away.

But Father Ye's butt had just touched the bicycle seat and he hadn't even sat down firmly when he was suddenly hit like that and was thrown backward.

"Hey, hey, hey? Fatty, I haven't gotten on the bus yet..."

The fat man slowed down his pedaling pace and said without stopping: "What were you doing just now? Stop wasting time and jog to get on."

Ye's father had been chasing him from behind, and when he saw him slow down, he trotted over and sat down.

The front of the car tilted for a moment, but it was fine after a while.

"I'm worried about the tire..."

"It can't be bad. Even if I'm a bad person, it can't be bad."

"Don't talk nonsense. Nothing is forever broken."

The fat man shut his mouth, feeling that he couldn't communicate with his elders. It was better to mind his own business and rush to the dock first. He was already on his bike anyway.

But the two of them procrastinated and time was stretched again.

It was already half past nine, and the current cargo on the cargo ship had already been loaded. All that was left was a little tidying up on the deck. Everyone was waiting on the ship for the Fatty to arrive, as if he didn't come sooner, it would be too late.

Ye Yaodong felt a little regretful as to why he had told him to set off between 9:30 and 10:00.

I should have told him directly that we would leave at 9:30, so that he would have some sense of time and could control it if we exceeded the time, instead of doing it now.

I am most afraid of stepping on the spot.

But some people just like to check out the spots.

I've been walking for a whole day. I'm too tired and sleepy. My eyes can't take it anymore. I'll make up another chapter tomorrow afternoon.
