1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer Chapter 55

Chapter 55 Picking up a dog

the next day.

After Li Duoyu woke up, he found that the family had prepared breakfast for them.

There are peanut paste and red turtle cake.

At their place.

Red turtle cake is usually only made when the child is one month old, which symbolizes longevity.

This kind of cake is soft and sticky when you bite it, and it is filled with peanut filling. It is very fragrant and sweet.

The driver Ou Wusheng saw the two of them finishing breakfast and handed the daughter in his arms to his wife.

“How is it? Did you sleep well last night?”

Li Duoyu smiled and replied:

“Not bad, the breakfast is also delicious.”

“That's good, I'm afraid the reception won't be good enough.”

After a brief exchange of greetings.

The three of them went to the head of the village, loaded the more than 180 moso bamboos into the car, and then left Dazhu Village.

　　　The moment you get in the car.

Chen Wenchao thought about the winding mountain road, hesitated for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and climbed onto the agricultural vehicle.

Hands tightly grasping the handle of the car roof, trying to relieve motion sickness in this way.

But it doesn't work at all.

Stomach is still churning.

During the 30-mile journey, he vomited three times on the roadside, and all the stomach acid was released.

After driving for about an hour and a half, the agricultural vehicle finally left the mountain road and came to the main road leading to Shangfeng Town.

Li Duoyu found that the road that used to have long queues was now empty, with not even a few cars per kilometer.

The makeshift tea stalls on the side of the road are all empty.

Like a yellow beam in a dream.

After the agricultural vehicle arrived at Qingkou Pier, the driver found a suitable place, tilted the bed of the agricultural vehicle, and unloaded the entire truck of bamboo.

After unloading the moso bamboo.

Li Duoyu took out five great unity cards and handed them to Ou Wusheng.

He was not willing to accept the money because he was helping him choose a name for his daughter.

Li Duoyu had no choice but to say with a straight face: "If you don't accept it, I won't dare to come to your Dazhu Village to buy bamboo next time."

After hearing this, Ou Wusheng could only accept the five cards together and asked Li Duoyu for his contact information.

It means to wait until the child grows up.

Bring her here to find a godfather.

Li Duoyu smiled awkwardly. Although he refused in his heart, he still said: "No problem."

In the 1980s.

Car drivers like them are very popular. As long as they can drive, they have priority in choosing a mate.

Li Duoyu remembered that when he was watching the TV series "The Ordinary World" in his previous life, Tian Xiaoxia's mother also exaggeratedly said:

“In our mountainous area, once the steering wheel is turned, the county magistrate will not change it!”

And they also have a local jingle.

“It's better to be a driver than to raise golden roosters at home.”

This enthusiastic driver brother may not have made as much money as the smugglers in Shangfeng Town in recent years, but his life is definitely much better than that of ordinary people.

After all, one shipment is someone else's wages for more than a month.

Looking at the piles of bamboo at the pier and Chen Wenchao squatting there vomiting, Li Duoyu planned to find a nearby boat to carry cargo.

After the goods were taken away from Shangfeng Town, they were eliminated.

The people traveling around Qingkou Wharf, as well as the vendors "peddling" various imported goods, also disappeared together with them.

There are fewer pickpockets.

There are more fishermen.

Hats of hairtail, cuttlefish, swimming crab, and skinned fish are being hoisted from the fishing boat and spread across about half of the pier.

Just when Li Duoyu was about to find a suitable fishing boat to help him haul bamboo, he heard someone calling his name.

Looking following the sound, a familiar sailboat appeared in his field of vision. The uncle on the bow waved to him and shouted:

“Many fish.”

After meeting his uncle and the others, Li Duoyu was also stunned for a moment. They had been out at sea for a long time.

　　Since the day he hung up the kelp seedlings, he has not been back. Counting, it has been seventeen or eighteen days.

Seeing his uncle get off the fishing boat, Li Duoyu quickly took out the cigarettes in his pocket and offered them to him.

The uncle, who was smoking, asked:

"Why are you here?"

Li Duoyu pointed to the pile of bamboo not far from the pier and said, "I just happened to go to Gushan to buy some bamboo."

The uncle looked puzzled:

“What are you buying bamboo for?” Li Duoyu smiled and replied:

“I plan to build a fishing raft near my kelp farming raft.”

The uncle looked disdainful:

“It's better not to learn from it, but to do what the Lianjia boatmen do. When we were young, only those who were not in the mainstream would build houses on the sea.”

Li Duoyu chuckled.

Did not continue to talk about this topic.

In my great-uncle's time, the status of the Lian family boatmen was indeed very low and they were deeply discriminated against.

The great-uncle went on to say:

“Since we've met you here, help us sell the fish first. When the fish are sold out, bring your bamboo back together.”

“Uncle, is your land good? Why do you ask me to sell fish?”

“Mainly, it's fun to watch your boy fight against the fishmonger.”

“.” Li Duoyu was a little speechless.

That time at Sharp Pier, the fishmonger went too far. It happened that the newspaper had expired newspapers, so Li Duoyu was able to scare the fishmonger.

This is Qingkou Wharf.

This is their own territory, and these fishmongers, uncle, and uncle are all acquaintances, and they can't see each other without looking up.

There will also be shortages of jin and shaoliang.

But generally not too much.

After all the hairtails were hoisted off the boat, Uncle San also got off the fishing boat. After briefly greeting Li Duoyu, he started selling fish.

Li Duoyu discovered that after not seeing him for more than ten days, his third uncle had lost a lot of weight and his mental state was not very good.

It seems that Li Yujun's matter.

It was a big blow to him.

When they learned that Li Duoyu was going to take the bamboo back, they drove the boat ahead and helped load the bamboo.

There is strength in numbers.

More than ten people and more than 180 moso bamboos were all moved onto the boat in less than 20 minutes.

Just when everyone was taking a rest after moving the moso bamboo.

In front of me, a truck transporting seafood happened to run over a puppy.

The puppy ran with a limp.

The truck driver, when he saw that he had run over the dog, was not surprised but overjoyed. He took out a piece of wood from the cab and wanted to beat the puppy.

“Damn it, you scared me, I'll use you to serve as a banquet tonight.”

That limping puppy.

Let Li Duoyu recall his past life. The yellow dog that often went to sea with him didn't know that he had died.

Would his son take the dog back to raise it? But thinking about it, it's unlikely.

Perhaps after you leave.

His family's wealthy man also became a stray dog just like this puppy.

Seeing that the truck driver was about to hit the puppy, Li Duoyu shouted in a deep voice: "Brother, you ran over my dog and even if you didn't pay me, why do you want to beat it back and eat it, right?"

“Damn it, your dog, Ming Ming”

The arrogant truck driver wanted to get angry, but when he saw more than a dozen fishermen sitting on the stone bar staring at him.

He immediately changed his face and smiled, took out a pack of cigarettes and gave them to each of them.

“I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I thought it was a wild dog. Please understand, brothers, it's unlucky for us, sports car owners, to see blood.”

After passing out the cigarettes, the truck driver turned around and got into the truck, muttering: "What the **** is this world like? There are so many people trying to grab even a piece of dog meat."

Li Duoyu came to the hiding place of the puppy. The puppy was hiding in a gap in the stone steps of the pier and was licking the leg of the dog that was pressed down.

The puppy was very nervous after seeing Li Duoyu and kept crawling behind him.

But there is no way out from behind.

Li Duoyu hooked it with his hand, beckoning it to come out, and made the usual sound of feeding chickens and ducks.

After hearing the sound, the little yellow dog looked at Li Duoyu with dull eyes, as if hesitating, but still did not dare to walk towards him.

At this time, the third uncle on the boat shouted: "There are many fish, the tide is starting to recede, we have to go."

“Okay, come right away.”

Li Duoyu took out the small dried fish he carried with him and threw it at the entrance of the cave.

After seeing dried small fish.

The puppy, which had been hungry for many days, could not resist the temptation and limped out. He wanted to bite the dried fish and ran inside.

As a result, the human in front of me pinched its neck and lifted it up, making it howl in fright.

“Gouzi, from now on, I'll find you a home on the sea, and I'll make sure no one bullies you.”
