Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982 Chapter 143

  Chapter 143 Big Iron Pot

  Early the next morning, the couple left the child with Mother Ye and went to town.

  Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua went to the town together yesterday afternoon and bought all the things that should be bought.

  Lin Xiuqing also kept in mind the things they bought, their prices, and where they bought them, and went straight to their destination as soon as they arrived in town.

  Ye Yaodong came out today as a laborer. After a while, the two baskets they brought out were already full and hung on their hands.

  He looked behind while walking, "Why do I feel that this pot is weird on my back?"

  Pedestrians passing by him on the road couldn't help turning their heads to look at him more.

  Lin Xiuqing turned her head and looked at it and couldn't help laughing, but she tried not to laugh, lest he get angry and stop reciting, "No, I think it's pretty good."

   "Then why are you still laughing at me?"

"Have it?"

   "No? Your eyes are so bent that you can't see your eyeballs."

   While talking, he tugged the cauldron on his back, always feeling awkward how to carry it? I don't know how his elder brother and second brother got it back yesterday?

  Now that she was discovered, Lin Xiuqing couldn't bear it anymore, and smiled with a big grin at the corner of her mouth, "I think you look better tanned now than before."

  "Bullshit", Ye Yaodong looked at the eyes of passers-by on both sides, and said in a low voice awkwardly, "You are obviously just joking that I have carried a big pot on my back, and I look like a bastard!"

   Now Lin Xiuqing couldn't help laughing, but in order to save him some face, she immediately covered it with her hands, and then said in a low voice, "You said that yourself, I didn't say that."

  Ye Yaodong was annoyed, and looked at her accusingly: "You must think so too!"

   "Oh, it's okay, buy two more things, and we'll go home." Lin Xiuqing held his hand reassuringly, and walked forward together.

   Depressed, he turned his head and glanced behind him again. How awkward is it?

   "What else do you want to buy? Come back in the afternoon? Take the pot back first, it's shameful to carry it all the time?"

   "It's good to buy all at once, why do you have to come again? No fare? I told you to walk, but if you have to take a car, how far can you go? It's not like you haven't walked."

  There are people all around, and it's hard for him to say anything about her. He still has one in his stomach, and he has to go this long way. Is he afraid that the child will be too safe?

  Originally, whether the child will be born or not is still in doubt. Of course, we must pay attention to it. There is really no need to save a few cents on the fare, it is still too frugal.

  Ye Yaodong bit the bullet, carried the blame on his back, and followed her all the time, without turning his eyes...

  It wasn't until she went into a small daily necessities shop and bought soap, brushes, and mallets that he finally couldn't help but say, "Isn't there a small shop in the village that sells them? Why do you have to go all the way back to buy them?"

   "You know what? You can buy two bars of soap here for a penny cheaper."

  Ye Yaodong: …

   "Okay, let's go back."

   "Buy a box of clam oil! It's autumn and winter, it's relatively dry, you and your children have to wipe it on your face and hands."

  She hesitated for a moment, "It's a bit early to wipe it off now... um... it's rare, so why don't you buy it by the way?"

   "Buy it, buy it."

   After all the shopping was done, he was relieved, and finally he was able to get in the car and go home.

   After walking around, I feel that my skin is thicker.

  After returning to the village, he didn't care anymore. He walked back swaggeringly, and when he met acquaintances, he could say hello twice.

   "Yo~ You became Prime Minister Turtle today?"

   Fatty saw him from a distance, and ran up quickly, but found a pot behind him, and immediately laughed at him.

  Ye Yaodong cut him fiercely with a knife in his eyes.

   "You look good today!"

   "Where are you from?"

   "Following my dad just came out of your house and wrote a menu for you."

   "Oh, just in time to help me get to my new home."

   Only then did the fat man notice that all the things were hanging on him, but his wife stood beside him empty-handed.

   "Didn't you see that you love your wife so much?"

   "It's necessary. My wife brings pain when she gets married. Hurry up and help me carry the basket in my hand."

   The fat man let out a soft snort, and without harming him, he obediently lifted the basket hanging in his hand.

  Lin Xiuqing was a little embarrassed, he spoke so bluntly.

  People in this era are very reserved.

  After preparing all the things that should be bought, Ye Yaodong doesn't need to worry about the next step, he has his own father and mother.

  Just for the wine, all the good quality seafood from the day before was picked out and kept on the wharf to keep fresh, and most of Ye Yaodong's ground cage goods were also kept, so as to reduce expenses.

  Because the Bryde's whales drove the fish away the day before yesterday, the fish stock in the ground cage has greatly increased this time, and there are also several top-quality large white pomfrets, each weighing more than a catty, which is more honorable to appear on the wine table.

   There are also several red cream crabs, each of which is big and fat. There will always be a bowl of red cream crab glutinous rice at the local banquet.

  Other swimming crabs, prawns, and sword prawns are all available. They are close to the sea, and 80% of the local wine table is seafood.

  For the locals, moving is a big event, and they are quite particular, not only the banquet dishes, but also some customs.

  A pair of lanterns, two bamboo poles, and two brooms are necessary for moving in their local area.

  The bamboo pole is a symbol of whether the owner lives in this house.

  The local villagers all use bamboo poles to dry their clothes. When the bamboo pole and clothes are still there, it means that the owner is still living here; once the bamboo pole is taken back, it means that the family has left.

   And when the bamboo pole is raised in a new place and the clothes are hung, it means that the new owner has arrived, so this must be used.

  As for lanterns, in the early days, a pair of red lanterns with the surname of the owner of the house would be hung at the door of every household.

  Once the lanterns are taken down, it means that the family will move out of this place, and when people see the new lanterns hanging up, they will know that there is a new owner in the house.

   There is also a broom, and you need to bring 2 brooms when you move. One is the broom of the old household, and the other is the broom of the new household. Its meaning is to clean up the old house that people lived in so that later people can move in; at the same time, clean up their new house so that they can live in a clean environment.

  Some people will take a broom to the door of the post office to sweep on the day of moving, which means sweeping all the money home.

  Wait until the day of moving, the bamboo poles and brooms should be wrapped in red paper with Spring Festival couplets, and then tied with red ropes.

   Then one red bucket is filled with half a bucket of water, and the other red bucket is filled with rice. Be careful not to spill water on the way from the old home to the new home, and then put the rice into the rice bucket of the new home.

  When you arrive at your new home, you need to burn straw at the door. People and things have to pass over the straw, which is a bit like crossing a brazier.

  Then carry the bucket of rice into the door first, followed by the bucket of water. After this bucket of water, you can use it to boil water or cook food, which means to change the water and soil for the family.

  The process of the previous life, I will go through it again in this life, Ye Yaodong is very familiar with it, and there is no need for Ye's mother to remind.

  After all the moving procedures were completed, after the red lanterns were hung high, the crackling of firecrackers meant that they had also finished moving.

   Wait until it's time to install the bed, and then they will carry the bed over and place it.

  The three brothers moved in on the same day, but at different times.

  The wine is also placed together, and then the expenses will be shared equally, saving trouble.

   On this day, even Uncle Ye and Uncle Ye, who hadn't shown up for a long time, also showed up. They greeted each other with joy and laughter.

  When all the guests are here, the firecrackers outside the house will be crackling, which means that the food can be served.

  The three brothers Ye Yaodong and Father Ye didn't have time to sit down to eat and drink after the banquet, they kept going back and forth among the guests to toast, and when they sat down, their faces were already flushed and they were hiccupping.

  Lin Xiuqing quickly poured him a few cups of tea to relieve him, and quickly put something in his bowl to eat.

   "Why did you drink so much all of a sudden, and didn't eat anything just now to fill your stomach."

  Ye Yaodong smiled at her drunkenly, quietly grabbed her hand with his left hand under the table, and ate vegetables with his right hand.

In the past few months, Lin Xiuqing has gradually gotten used to his occasional and unintentional intimacy, and there is a hint of sweetness in her heart, which is very useful. Anyway, she is almost full, and the two children sit with Mother Ye, Don't use her.

  After the banquet was over and all the guests were sent away, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the three sisters-in-law also immediately helped their men back to the room to lie down, and then helped clean up the mess.

Ye Yaodong slept comfortably. He fell asleep from the moment he lay down until the next day. When he touched the warm and fragrant nephrite beside him, he felt that something was wrong with his hand. He opened and closed his eyes reluctantly, only to realize that it belonged to his youngest son. thigh.

  He looked around the room in confusion, only to realize that it was a new home. His two sons were lying there crookedly, and his wife was no longer in the house.

   Rubbing his temples, he carefully stepped over his eldest son and got off the bed, put on his underwear and went out.

  I saw his wife was busy around the stove in an apron.

   "What are you cooking? Why don't you wear new clothes?"

  She said with a smile on her face: "I don't go out, so I cook at home and wear new clothes for what? Don't let the sparks make a hole, then I have no place to cry."

   "Okay, what did you cook in the morning?"

"Pumpkin porridge, I haven't finished eating the big pumpkins I brought from my mother's house last time. My mother moved two here the day before yesterday. The meaning of pumpkins is also good. I want to cook pumpkin porridge directly, and use the water from yesterday's move. Cook it with rice and change the water and soil."

   "Okay, you can eat anything. The tide is relatively early today, and I will go out early to collect the net later."

   "I know, so I got up earlier today to cook, and the porridge will rot for a while, so why don't you go back and lie down?"

  He rubbed his temples, his head was still uncomfortable, "No, I'm going to brush my teeth and wash my face to wake up."

  Lin Xiuqing looked at his back with a smile on her face.

   There will be another chapter added, when will it be finished and posted, I'm so sleepy right now
