1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer Chapter 611

Hearing his grandma and grandma arguing, Li Haoran couldn't help but sigh. The adults all just focused on their own feelings.

No one had ever asked him whether he wanted another younger brother or sister. Li Haoran glanced at the freshly pressed carp cake in his hand and suddenly felt that it didn't taste that good anymore.

When he came back during the Mid-Autumn Festival this time, his parents didn't even have a good chat with him. They asked him how he was doing in his studies, and then they were busy making people again.

I don't know how many wooden boards were nailed to the bed of my father and mother to strengthen it. Sometimes, Li Haoran really felt that his father was very pitiful and could not resist his mother at all.

But you found your wife yourself.

What can be done?

Although it is only the Mid-Autumn Festival tomorrow, the moon is already very bright and round, shining on the sea, there is a very bright sea light.

Li Haoran sat on the stone slab in his yard, frowning and looking at the sea, feeling a little disappointed.

In the past, my uncle liked to sit here and play songs on his three-way machine.

He was listening next to me. When my uncle's hair was still curly, it was as if he had been injected with chicken blood every day.

He kept talking all day long about how wonderful and beneficial abroad was. At that time, he was also told that he wanted to go abroad.

But after my brother-in-law cut off his hair, he no longer talked about these things, and he became a lot more boring.

Especially since my brother-in-law moved to a new house, this small yard has become obviously deserted and not as popular as before.

Grandma often brings little Tutu to her uncle's house, and she also eats lunch and dinner downstairs. The kitchen above feels like it hasn't been used for a long time.

The light in the courtyard flashes twice from time to time and is about to break, and no one wants to replace it.

Li Haoran misses the days when everyone would enjoy the cool air in the courtyard on summer evenings.

And my mother-in-law kept talking there all day long. After she had a child, she would knock down the old house and build a new one.

Although Li Haoran also likes the new house very much, he can't let go of the old house. He always feels that if the old house is not lost, he will really grow up.

He cupped his cheek and looked at the sea, sighing repeatedly. The little boy also began to have his own troubles.

The recent rumors in school have made him very distressed, especially the rumor that he is dating Chen Shujing.

How old is he?

The skin has not even been turned out yet, and I have to wash it twice in the shower. How could it be as good as what they spread?

How many girlfriends does he have?

The reality is that he has never even held a girl's hand.

I heard that Chen Shujing was angry and cried several times during this period, which even affected her studies. This time, she dropped from first place to second in her year in the monthly exam.

"well."

Li Haoran sighed. After entering junior high school, he found that everyone had changed. In elementary school, men and women still sat at the same table, and everyone drew a 38-point line on the table.

If male and female students play together, they will be laughed at.

But in junior high school, it was completely different. The guy at the desk in front of him, Ma Shifu, could look back at the girl named Ye Shuyan more than a dozen times in one class.

Sun Ning, who plays with him, has also started writing love letters recently, and even came to him for advice, asking him how he caught up with Chen Shujing.

Li Haoran was really helpless. He couldn't tell him that he had helped her and lent her his bed to sleep in.

But for Li Haoran, he is a bit reluctant to fall in love. After all, not every couple is as lucky as uncle and aunt.

Most of them are like his parents. Their relationship only lasts a few years, and then they quarrel over trivial matters every day.

If you have bad luck, you may be like Teacher Lin and meet a man who loves gambling and beats his wife.

However, the worst thing is Chen Shujing's house. Even now, Chen Shujing is still waiting for her mother-in-law to come back.

But Li Haoran, who accidentally heard some words, knew that her mother-in-law would probably never come back in this life.

But he didn't dare to tell Chen Shujing about this kind of thing at all, so he felt very awkward when he saw her and didn't want to talk to her, for fear of accidentally revealing information to her.

Just as he sighed, a pair of rough palms touched his head and said, "You are so young, why do you always sigh?"

Li Haoran turned around suddenly: "Uncle, when did you come?"

"Just arrived." Li Duoyu said: "This year's Mid-Autumn Festival will be held here in the old house. I will come up to change a brighter lamp."

After hearing this, Li Haoran was very happy: "I will move the ladder for you."

After Li Duoyu replaced the light bulb, the entire courtyard lit up.

"This light is so bright. How many watts does it have?"

"100 watts."

"It doesn't consume much electricity. My family only dares to use 25 watts. I'm afraid my mother won't be able to part with it."

"Don't worry, I'm paying the electricity bill."

After Li Duoyu finished installing the lights, he smiled and said to Li Haoran: "Director Chen told me that you are very powerful. You are the bully in the school. Even the young people in society are afraid of you."

After hearing this, Li Haoran grimaced, and sure enough, the rumor reached his uncle's ears.

Li Haoran said helplessly: "They are afraid of you, not me. I didn't do anything."

Li Duoyu pinched Little Fatty's face: "You still have something to do, and you feel a lot fatter."

Li Haoran scratched his head and smiled, then asked: "Uncle, I heard that when you were in junior high school, you often fought with gangsters outside the school to protect the boarding students. You even helped fishermen collect their nets in the middle of the night, and you were praised by the whole school."

Li Duoyu smiled awkwardly. What Xiao Pang Dun said seemed to be a bit different from his memory.

Li Duoyu coughed and said, "Haoran, just study hard when you go to school. Don't bully others. Of course, you can't be bullied."

"I'm so big, not many people dare to bully me."

Li Haoran suddenly asked: "Uncle, by the way, let me ask you something. When you were in junior high school, would you like girls and would you write love letters to girls?"

At this moment, Li Duoyu felt murderous intent coming from behind him, because when Li Haoran asked him this question, Zhou Xiaoying happened to have just arrived here holding Xiao Tutu.

Zhou Xiaoying was a little surprised: "Haoran, you don't know how to fall in love?"

Li Haoran shook his head like a rattle: "It's just that many classmates in the class are in love, I'm just curious."

Zhou Xiaoying thought for a while and said: "Actually, at your age, you are not in love, it is just a mutual attraction between boys and girls. Are there many boys in your class who all like a girl at the same time?"

"Auntie, how do you know? There are more than 20 men in our class, and more than half of them like Ye Shuyan."

Zhou Xiaoying glanced at Li Duoyu, and then said: "Has someone in your class started writing love letters and secretly put them in the drawer named Ye Shuyan?"

Li Haoran kept nodding his head: "Yes, I also helped Sun Ning in the next class secretly write a love letter, but it was discovered. Others thought I also wrote a love letter to her."

Zhou Xiaoying said seriously: "This is normal. You do behave like this at your age. When I was in junior high school, I also wrote love letters for others."

"ah."

Li Haoran looked curious: "I can also help write love letters. Wouldn't that be embarrassing?"

Zhou Xiaoying snorted: "I can't help it. Some people are naturally thick-skinned. They also say that their handwriting is too ugly. They are afraid of being disliked by the other party and want me to write for them."

Li Haoran grinned and said: "Auntie, I think you have to collect money for this." Li Duoyu's facial muscles twitched, and he knew that this matter was something that could not be changed. He rubbed oil on the soles of his feet and was about to leave. This is the wrong place.

Zhou Xiaoying asked with a smile: "Haoran, how much do you think I should charge?"

Li Haoran frowned and began to think: "Auntie, after that love letter you helped write back then, have they succeeded? If so, then accept more; if not, then accept less."

"How is it possible? How can someone who can't even write a love letter do it?"

Li Haoran nodded and said: "I don't think it's very possible. He refuses to write love letters himself. This kind of person is unreliable."

The corners of Li Duoyu's mouth twitched. He couldn't let them continue chatting, otherwise he would get goosebumps all over the floor.

Li Duoyu coughed twice: "Okay, Haoran, go and clean up the yard. Tomorrow our whole family will celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival in the old house."

"At that time, Uncle Shuguang, Uncle Qingguang, and Aunt Shuihua will also come."

After Li Haoran left, Zhou Xiaoying looked at Li Duoyu with a smile and asked: "It's strange, Chen Ziyi didn't hold a class reunion this year.

Li Duoyu said: "We are a junior high school, not a university. We usually only do it once every five or ten years. How can we hold it every year?"

Zhou Xiaoying said with a smile: "How about your sponsorship, we can also hold one this year."

Li Duoyu said seriously: "What are you thinking about? As long as you are by my side, we will have a class reunion every day, okay?"

Zhou Xiaoying hummed: "Anyway, I wrote a love letter for you, and you owe me a love letter."

Seeing that Zhou Xiaoying actually asked him for this thing, Li Duoyu's whole face looked like a bitter gourd.

At this old age, if he is asked to write a love letter, it is better to kill him: "Comrade Xiaoying, this is too difficult, can we change it to another one?"

Zhou Xiaoying said: "Grandpa Shitou, if a person can still write so affectionately at his age, you can't learn from it."

"Then can I copy his work?"

Zhou Xiaoying glared and said, "If you dare, I will show Haoran the love letter you wrote back then."

"ah."

"No, why do you still keep it?"

"I know how to memorize it, okay? Dear classmate Chen Ziyi, one day without seeing you is like three autumns."

The corner of Li Duoyu's mouth twitched: "You are blackmailing me, this is obviously different from the one you read last time."

Zhou Xiaoying smiled and said: "You still remember so clearly, what it was like last time, please repeat it to me."

Li Duoyu's head hurts.

When you can't win over a woman, the best way is to use your body to block her jealous mouth.

But this time, Li Duoyu miscalculated. He thought Zhou Xiaoying would fall asleep with satisfaction and tell him to stop making trouble.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Xiaoying really didn't give any face tonight. She rolled her eyes and said, "That's it, won't you come again?"

How could Li Duoyu endure it, but the reality was very cruel, far more cruel than the shrimp plague.

It declined again and again, and three times it was exhausted. At this moment, Li Duoyu was like a salted fish without dreams.

Zhou Xiaoying acted as if nothing was wrong and said softly: "I'm going to take a shower."

Li Duoyu buried his head in the quilt and couldn't help but hammer the pillow twice. It was so shameful and humiliating. It turned out that Teacher Zhou had deliberately cooperated in the past.

He suddenly remembered that his second brother had recently collected a lot of prescriptions, so he asked him for one with better results.

But this time, after the shrimp farm got through the difficulties, Chen Huiying, who kept praying and making wishes, thought it was Mazu's blessing.

Otherwise, so many shrimp farmers would suffer, but Lao Si's shrimp factory had no problems. She had always been very frugal, so this time she took the initiative to find Lao Si and asked him to thank Mazu.

Li Duoyu didn't know how to thank him. To be honest, he couldn't tell whether he had been blessed or not.

After all, being able to survive the shrimp plague was a bit of a gamble. This year it was the big boss again, so I spent 2,000 yuan to invite a troupe to come to the island to sing operas for five days.

It's the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Xiasha Village is very lively, with people everywhere on the road, and several children from Lao Hu's family next door have also returned to the island.

And maybe because Lao Mi gave him enough money, all his sons returned to the island to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Li Duoyu was walking on the pier and saw many children setting up tiles there, and then he remembered something.

It seems that there are three major traditional customs on Dandan Island on the Mid-Autumn Festival.

In addition to eating carp cakes, there are also activities such as setting up pagodas and collecting moonflowers.

The folk activity of placing tiles is related to the Qi family army, after Qi Jiguang won the anti-Japanese war.

In order to welcome them, the islanders specially placed their valuables at the door to celebrate.

The children also followed the same example. They didn't have anything valuable, so they put up tiles.

Since then, placing tiles has become a favorite activity for children in mid-autumn.

As for picking up moonlight, it is easier to understand. The older generation told them that on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, "moonlight" will fall from the sky.

And as long as you hide "Yuehua" in the rice vat, you won't be able to finish the rice.

What Li Duoyu hated most back then was this custom, because they couldn't afford rice back then.

The rice vat is filled with sweet potato noodles.

He didn't want to hide the moonlight in the sweet potato noodles. He was already afraid of eating that stuff, and he didn't want it to grow more and more.

After listening to grandma telling this story, little Tutu also brought a bouquet of "Moonflower" to her rice vat.

But instead of putting Yuehua in, he turned around and ran to the hall, hid his robot in the rice vat, and smiled proudly.

But not long after, his mother discovered it. Looking at the robot hidden in the rice vat, Zhou Xiaoying felt a little dumbfounded.

"You and your father are really on the same path."

Immediately afterwards, a group of relatives came to watch. After Li Shuguang saw it, he couldn't help laughing: "This kid may be very suitable for business in the future."

On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Li Duoyu set up three tables of meals and invited all his relatives to the old house for dinner.

As in previous years, after arriving, the children were sent to bed, and the woman was responsible for cleaning up the mess.

A group of men were still smoking and drinking there, discussing the next direction of development.

Li Shuguang asked: "There are many fish, and it won't be long before we have to collect kelp again. How many acres do you plan to do this year?"

Li Duoyu thought for a while: "Maybe three thousand."

After hearing this, they were all stunned, and the cigarette in Li Shuguang's mouth almost fell to the ground.

"How many acres?"

Li Duoyu said seriously: "Three thousand acres." (End of this chapter)
