Return to the small fishing village of 1982

Chapter 16 Thinking back on the regrets from many years ago

Seeing the two people running away, everyone in the room was still very angry and still scolding them!

Seaside people are most taboo about saying such unlucky words. As long as someone in the family goes to sea, they won't even bother to eat fish. It doesn't matter if they are superstitious. Anyway, that's what they value.

The risk of going to sea is very high. People fall into the sea and die every year. No one wants to have an accident with their family.

"Okay, let's do what we have to do. They won't think about the boat anymore. You should check the boat carefully before going to sea. If there is no problem, go to sea again. You must pay attention to safety issues. No matter how important money is, it is not as important as life. "

"Mom, I know that I have checked everything. I even asked a master to come over when I first went into the water. I only went out to sea after checking that there was no problem." Father Ye will not joke about the safety of himself and his son.

"As long as you know what's going on."

Father Ye nodded, and then took his two sons out to buy bricks and cement. When Mother Ye was optimistic about the future, they would find cement workers to start building a house.

Ye Yaodong was legitimately abandoned by his father.

Who dares to call someone who doesn't do any serious work on a daily basis?

He stood aside and raised his eyebrows, watching his father and his two brothers go out, and he was so happy that he couldn't say a word.

It was very hot at noon in June, so if I didn’t ask him to go, he could just take a nap. By the way, I would like to recall what happened at home at this time. After all, it was 40 years ago, so long ago.

He had just woken up in the morning, still in a confused state, when he was disturbed by the sound of his eldest and second uncle coming to the door. He couldn't think carefully and went out to check what was wrong.

After the three sisters-in-law tidied up the inside and outside of the house, they started making fishing nets in the shade at the door. While doing so, they scolded Uncle Ye and Uncle Ye for their wickedness and so on.

The room was stuffy and hot, so Ye Yaodong lay on the deck chair at the door to enjoy the coolness and squinted for a while. As a result, his ears had not been clear since he lay down until now. Xinbiquge

The three sisters-in-law started chatting with the neighbors while cursing, and they also talked about the gossip in the village, and they became more and more enthusiastic. The key was that they did not stop the shuttle and netting needles in their hands, and they were still weaving the net quickly. .

Ye Yaodong only felt that these women were really good at talking. They were just like a fishing net, and they could pull out anything they put together.

He couldn't lie down anymore. One woman was equal to 500 ducks. A group of women chatted endlessly, and he couldn't even lie down on the recliner and squint for a while.

Scratching his head in annoyance, he might as well go back inside. It was windy today, so it would be fine if he left the window open.

As a result, as soon as he stepped into the house, he saw his youngest son standing by the bucket playing with water and digging out clams. He threw himself on the bucket and almost fell into it. He was all wet.

"Damn it, you guy, you didn't even see me in the blink of an eye, you just made trouble like this, secretly came here to play in the water."

He quickly lifted his son up and shouted to Lin Xiuqing at the door: "Aqing, your son secretly played in the water and got wet again!"

Lin Xiuqing frowned when she heard this, and quickly got up and came in. Seeing her son's face covered with water stains, his black eyes looking at her innocently, she lost her temper in an instant, and just stepped forward and slapped his butt twice.

"Why don't you behave better? You've been playing in the sand all morning and it's not enough. You have to play in the water and you have no clothes to change. How many things do you have to change in a day?"

Ye Chengyang thought his mother was playing with him, so he smiled so much that his two millet teeth were exposed, and he hugged her neck.

Lin Xiuqing picked him up with a look of helplessness, "You're still wet and sticking to my body. Go to the room to change clothes!"

Ye Yaodong also followed them slowly into the house, then lay down on the canopy bed, put his hands behind his head and raised his feet while watching his wife change the children's clothes.

For decades, he always remembered her as a middle-aged woman with a tired and overworked look on her face. He had long forgotten that she was so young when she was young.

Feeling his direct gaze, Lin Xiuqing felt a little uncomfortable and her ears turned slightly red. After changing the child's clothes, she turned around and glared at him, "Why are you looking like this in broad daylight?"

Then he took the child out again as if he was running away...

He suddenly felt a little confused. Couldn't he just look at his wife a second time?

Don’t you think she was quite pretty when she was young?

Are you going to stare at him?

Ye Yaodong came to his senses after lying there for a while. Damn it... She couldn't possibly think that he wanted to do something to her right now, right?

What about escaping?

He originally wanted to ask her to put the child in her room and he would watch it for her for a while.

Come on, he'd better squint quietly for a while alone.

He crossed his legs and looked at the mosquito net on the top of the canopy bed. Thinking back, it seemed that his family had always lived a peaceful life. Except for building a house and dividing the family, nothing major happened in the following decades. Everyone is safe and sound.

No, he instantly remembered an important thing that he had forgotten for many years!

It seems that his wife will be pregnant with her third child in the past two years, but the policy does not allow her to have a baby. She went into hiding at her parents' house. However, she slipped and fell while picking tea in the mountains with a pregnant belly of seven or eight months. She gave birth before she could be taken to the hospital. , and the result was that the child was out of breath within half an hour of being born!

I heard she is a daughter!

His wife was so sad and blamed herself that she cried for several days!

As for why he heard about it, of course it was because he was not at his father-in-law's house. He only found out about it when his wife was sent back for confinement the day after the child died.

Although he felt a little pity, the child was not born after all, and he was away from home all day long. He didn't have much affection for the child. He had forgotten about it for a long time. It was only now that he thought about it carefully that he remembered this matter.

Thinking of this, he sat up instantly. In which year did his wife become pregnant with her third child?

He vaguely remembered that her belly didn't grow until she moved into her new home. Which year was that?

Tea picking comes in March?

Calculated based on seven or eight months of pregnancy, it means you were conceived in July or August? Is she pregnant this year or next year? Or the year after tomorrow?

"Damn it, how could I forget what year it was for such an important thing?"

Ye Yaodong looked back with an annoyed look on his face, but he couldn't remember it. He only remembered that his belly grew bigger after he moved into his new home and he couldn't hide it. In order to avoid the policy, he returned to his parents' home to wait for the birth until the next year.

After thinking about it for a long time, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, you'll know when you get pregnant. It's best not to get pregnant. Who knows if you can give birth successfully? Save yourself the trouble!"

After thinking about it, he lay back down again. Apart from this matter, the only other big thing for him was that his grandma would be gone in a few years.

He still remembers that he was very sad back then. When the old lady went to water the vegetable field at the back door, she stepped on the bluestone and fell. She refused to go to the hospital, saying that she was fine, and then lay there for a few days. .

If possible, he wanted the old lady to live a few more years. If it hadn't been for her accidental fall, the old lady's body would have been quite strong.

Not being filial to her properly was also his regret for many years.

Thinking about it and listening to the sound of cicadas outside the house, Ye Yaodong fell asleep unconsciously.
