Because he wanted to bring a TV for Aguang when he came back, he didn't plan to ride the bicycle when he went there. He didn't bother to tie the basket to the back seat of the bicycle. He just pushed the cart and set off.

I have come back, so I have to call Director Chen first to thank him and let them know that I came back yesterday.

Even though he didn't have her phone number, nothing happened to him, but after all, she had the heart to help.

After making the call, he set foot on the road.

Ye Yaodong cursed as he watched a tractor swaying by, bringing up billowing exhaust fumes and dust.

"If I had known better, I would have left him alone. If I had been riding a bicycle, I would have arrived in town long ago, but now I have to eat a mouthful of dirt and exhaust fumes."

“It still takes a long time to walk back and forth!”

"When you come back, watch me blackmail you severely and go to your house to move watermelons..."

Looking at the small town in the distance, he stopped for a moment, took out a warm corn from the basket and ate it.

The old lady had just picked these in the morning and cooked a big pot, intending to give them to the children as snacks. He happened to come out, so she brought two for him to eat on the road.

After walking all the way, he was already hungry, so he just took it out to pad his stomach.

There are also a few tomatoes picked conveniently in the basket. After eating the corn, I can eat a few more tomatoes to quench my thirst.

"Woof woof~"

"It's not your fault, just stay here, or you can get down and go on your own."

He also brought two of his dogs out.

As soon as he pushed the cart in front, the two dogs immediately jumped on. The other dogs were a step slower and could not catch up, so they were chased away by him.

He just agreed yesterday that he would take them to play if he had the chance, so he simply took these two nimble ones with him to see if he could steal some seeds. It happened that both of them were females.

It was also his first time to raise a dog. They were kept free-range and he didn't care about them. He didn't know if they were in heat or not. He heard that they were in heat in spring and autumn, so he could only try his luck. Otherwise, he could just take them to play.

After Ye Yaodong went to the town, he was not stingy and bought cans per person, plus two packs of cigarettes per person.

The big guys at the border guard station were surprised to see him come to visit again.

I also cursed in my heart, he really didn't show up at all. Some people would go around their door specially. He actually just went back yesterday and came here again today.

"Hello comrades, thank you for your hard work, I'm here again~" Ye Yaodong walked in directly with his burden.

"Why are you here again? You just went back yesterday, and you came here again today. Didn't you stay enough?"

Gao Jianshe was an old acquaintance of him. When he came here for the first time, he opened the door. He was also the one who brought people here yesterday. He was the first to come forward and ask.

"It's like this. Today our new ship came back early in the morning, so I came over to deliver cakes again."

"There's a new ship? Is it real or fake? Don't you deliberately get a name just to give it as a gift?"

"What are you talking about? How can you deceive anyone? Comrade Gao Jianshe casually flipped through the calendar and knew that today is the summer solstice. The days are particularly good. I saw people getting married on the way here."

"How many boats do you have? Didn't you just sail a boat back some time ago, and now you have built another boat and made a fortune?"

"Hey, the new boat that just came back today is relatively large, 26 meters long. It is a partnership between my brother-in-law and my second brother."

I won’t talk about the other boats so as not to shock them with too many details. His character is an ordinary poor and understanding fisherman.

Gao Jianshe was surprised, "Good guy, such a big ship, with all the facilities it is equipped with, it should cost tens of thousands of dollars in total, right? Is your family so powerful?"

"The main reason is that there are many people in the partnership, so it would be good if we all share the shares. My brother-in-law holds more shares, so I just participate casually, and I don't hold much."

"No wonder when I went to your house yesterday, I heard the villagers in your village talking about whether someone was jealous that you were about to get a big boat or something..."

Ye Yaodong nodded, "Yes, that's right. So today I really came here to give away cakes, and it also made everyone feel happy. We are making hair every day and rising steadily."

"Okay, okay, you have your heart."

"It should."

Ye Yaodong first pushed a basket to their desks, and then handed it to them one by one, chatting for a few words. After handing out the items to those outside, he went to give the shares to the two big guys in the office.

After getting it done, he originally wanted to inquire with Gao Jianshe to see if he could buy another TV, but seeing how busy they were there, he hesitated again.

After all, this is the border defense brigade, not a supply and marketing cooperative. It's too unpleasant to do this every three days. He can buy wherever he wants.

Moreover, even if someone does let him take one back, it is only for the sake of other people's face, not his face. His face is not that big. All this consumes is other people's face.

Thinking about it this way, it's really not a good idea.

What's more, there are only three things that can be done. Instead of waiting for others to beat you, it is better to be smarter and cause less trouble to others. Many friendships are slowly worn away bit by bit.

Ye Yaodong stood and thought for a moment, then simply gave up the idea of ​​buying a TV for A Guang.

Whenever there is an opportunity, the right time and the right place, let's talk about it, the original purpose is to come to thank you and give something in the name of a new ship. It would be too deliberate and purposeful to say that you want to buy a TV after the delivery.

Seeing him standing there, Gao Jianshe smiled and asked again, "Would you like to sit over there for a while? Do you have a cup?"

"No, I came here to deliver something. What kind of cup did I bring? I didn't come to work to drink tea. Now that I have delivered it, I have to leave."

"Why are you so anxious? Didn't you just come here? Let's take a rest. It takes an hour to walk from the village to the town, right?"

"No need to rest, hurry back before noon, otherwise the sun will be stronger and sunnier in a while. Now I can go back and have lunch."

"Okay, then you can go back early."

He also said hello to the others, and then left with the dog first.

With the 500 yuan he brought out of his pocket, in addition to spending dozens of yuan on cigarettes and cans, he also secretly brought private goods and bought ten bottles of soda, planning to go back and reward the children.

On a hot day, a bottle of soda is not too fancy, but it’s a pity that there is no refrigerator, otherwise it would be more refreshing and refreshing if it is chilled.

Ye Yaodong looked at the cart being pushed over, frowned, sighed, and pushed it back resignedly.

If I had known better, I would have ridden a bicycle. It would be faster and I would not have to walk, which would kill me in the hot weather.

Just as he was pushing the cart on the road and looking around, trying to find a shaded place, but there were not even half a tree on the road, so he could only stand in the sun, when a middle-aged man about 40 years old came up to him and called him in surprise.

.

It's Chen Jiannian.

It’s really unexpected. I’ve been to town countless times and I’ve never encountered him before, but today I unexpectedly encountered him.

The two had not seen each other since they came back from Zhejiang Province last year. Now they were very enthusiastic and invited Ye Yaodong to sit at his house.

Ye Yaodong refused, saying that he was anxious to go back.

It was not convenient to talk under the bright sun, so they only chatted for a few words and then separated.

When he got home, Ye Yaodong gave Ah Qing the remaining money and explained that he didn't buy a TV, and then told Ah Qing that he met Chen Jianian on the road.

"You are wearing a sun protection hat, can you still be recognized?"

"Then I don't wear it all the time. There are so many people on the street, so I go on the road and only cover my head when no one is around. Otherwise, I have to point fingers."

"That's quite a coincidence."

"Yeah, after a few words, he asked me if I planned to go to Zhejiang Province to fish for jellyfish this year. Remember to call him if you go, so I agreed. After chatting for a while, the sun was too hot, so I left."

"Anyway, I have a phone number, so just contact me in advance."

"Well, why didn't those little brats see it?"

He was a little uncomfortable not being surrounded by them when he came back, so he even bought them soda.

"We went out for a lot of fun in the morning. At 8:30, each of us took a piece of corn and went to school to get our report card. We haven't come back yet. I wonder if I didn't dare to come back because I didn't do well in the exam."

"It should be soon. Dinner will be served soon. Leave some food for them."

Lin Xiuqing looked at the sodas on the table and didn't say anything. Her money was free, so just buy what you like.

They had just paid the final payment for the big ship, and they still had about 20,000 in cash on hand. Apart from settling the wages at the workshop and delivering the ship, which required a lot of money, they really had no other place to spend money.

.

In the past, people didn't spend much money on food and drink in rural areas. Where they did spend money, it was usually to satisfy personal desires and buy big items. Now their family can say that they don't lack anything.

Now that money is flowing in from the shops in the city and from the fishing boats at home, Lin Xiuqing is no longer so anxious about money, that is...

"Several children didn't even get their report cards, so they didn't know how well they did in the test, so they bought sodas. Those who didn't know thought they were being rewarded in advance."

"That's right. We should reward them. They behaved so well a few days ago. They even knew how to break the glass. Yesterday they were reluctant to leave. The pain for them was not in vain..."

"Dad...Dad...Mom...I got 100 points in the exam! I got 100 points in the exam..."

Before anyone arrived, the sound came first. The couple were in the house when they heard the excited sounds coming from outside. They didn't know how far away they were before they started shouting. They didn't even reach the entrance of the courtyard.

Ye Yaodong looked outside and walked to the door, only to see them running in from the yard.

"Uncle Third, I also got 100 points in the test..." Ye Chenghai also hurriedly ran to him with the test paper.

The same goes for other children. Everyone is holding papers in their hands and they are all very excited.

Ye Chenghu turned around and shouted unhappily: "This is my dad, you have to go back to your home."

"Ah, my father is not at home, let me show it to my third uncle first."

Ye Yaodong: "Then your mother is going to be so angry. Go home quickly and come back later, or you will be beaten again."

"Then I'll come back later!"

The others also hurriedly turned around and went home first. It was so convenient to stay at the third uncle's house every day. As soon as they got their transcripts, they rushed over to share them, forgetting to go back to their own homes first.
To be continued...
