He quickened his pace and headed home.
As soon as I walked down the ramp, I heard someone behind me keep shouting, "Hey, hey, pia pia pia~"
Turning around, he immediately hid in the grass next to him. Behind him, there was a man pushing a cart and running downhill. He rushed past him with a roar, and then fell down with a thud...
"Hiss~" He gritted his teeth and felt pain for this person. Fortunately, he was no longer in his 80s and could withstand the fall.
As soon as he finished sympathizing with others, he became extremely happy and sad. He lifted his legs and planned to walk onto the road, but found a black cow dung on his rain boots.
No wonder he felt like he was stepping on shit when he first stepped into the grass. He thought it was because the dead grass was too lush.
He looked at his left foot with disgust. Fortunately, he was wearing rain boots, otherwise he wouldn't be able to take the foot...
It was really bad when it rained.
He stood up on tiptoes and took two steps in disgust. Later, he realized that the rain boots he wore did not get on his feet, so he did not need to tiptoe, so he quickly walked a few steps, found a puddle, put his left foot in, and scratched and rubbed.
Looking at the water in the puddle, it turned from earthy yellow to black. He took a few steps forward and found another puddle to rub and scratch.
There wasn't much water in the puddles, and it wasn't as clean as it was. Walking back, he would step on every big puddle he saw.
As a result, as soon as he reached the door of his house, he heard Ye Chenghu complaining.
"Mom, my dad is treading water there. You said you can't tread water."
"What? You still want to hit me?"
"Let mother beat you."
"I won't let you drink malted milk that night."
Ye Chenghu rolled his eyes and said, "My mother said that children can't tread water, but she didn't say that adults can't. Dad is an adult, so he can roll around in the puddle twice."
Ye Yaodong flicked his forehead, "When did you become so smart?"
"Drink malted milk!"
Now everyone laughed.
"You are beautiful!"
Ye Yaodong said to his mother again: "There was a typhoon last night and I don't know whose pig pen collapsed. The pigs ran away. Just now my father and I went over and saw an extra pig in the backyard, and it gave our vegetable plot to Huo Huo."
"What?" Mother Ye stood up immediately in surprise. Her hands were dirty and she had nothing to wipe them with, so she just rubbed them on the basket twice. "Whose pig ran into the vegetable patch in our backyard? Is this okay?" Come, the cat is poor, the dog is rich, the pig is covered with white cloth, I have to go and see.”
She didn't even bother to wash her hands and ran to the old house in a hurry.
"Why are you running? I'll take you there on my bike."
"It's a rainy day. The road is extremely dirty. There's mud everywhere. Whatever you ride, don't make it dirty." She walked forward minding her own business.
Ye Yaodong ran back to the house, pushed the bicycle out, and chased after him, "Get on the bike, it's already dirty."
"You bastard, you don't know how to take care of your bicycle. You ride it outside in this weather. Look at the tires and sides. They are all dirty."
"What does it matter? Isn't the car just for riding? Come on up."
Mother Ye saw that the horse had come out, so she simply sat on it, but she still couldn't help but think about it.
"Things in your hands will break easily, and you don't know how to take care of them. Others regard them as treasures. Even if you can walk on two legs, you can't bear to ride them. When you ride back later, remember to ask your wife to wash and wipe them clean. Seawater corrodes..."
"I know, if you don't ride it, it will get rusty if you leave it there. It's a waste of money. Of course, you have to use it more to make sure it's not a loss. Otherwise, why don't I buy it back and leave it there for support?"
"If you are like this, you will definitely not be able to ride for a few years. It will break after a few times."
Ye Yaodong didn't argue with her. She would be nagging as much as she wanted. If she didn't respond to her words, she wouldn't continue after a few words. If you talked back, she would get more and more enthusiastic.
But just after sitting on it, Ye Mu couldn't stand it anymore.
"Stop, stop, let me walk by myself. If I sit down again, this road will lift me to the sky..."
Although Ye Yaodong tried his best to ride in a flat place without puddles, he would inevitably encounter Ye Mu's bumpy buttocks, which made her unable to sit firmly on the back seat.
Seeing that there was another uphill slope ahead, Ye Yaodong had no choice but to put his mother down and let her walk. He also climbed down and pushed her.
After his mother arrived at the old house, the pig behind was also discovered by the neighbors, and everyone gathered around to watch the fun.
Ye Yaodong thought that this pig wouldn't be solved for a while, and his father probably didn't have time to clean up the house. He might as well go back to his house to do some work first. He couldn't just throw away the mountains of shells to his wife and old lady. His wife still has to cook and take care of the children, but it’s just a pig anyway, so it’s okay to just give it back.
He stayed for a while, took a few glances, then got on his bicycle and walked back.
The village was full of itchy children stepping out to play in the water. The sound of dinging bicycles rang all the way to the house, followed by a bunch of tails, even to the door of his house, where they shouted: "Bicycles, bicycles." ~"
After Ye Chenghu saw it, he quickly put down what he was doing, ran forward, put his hands on his hips and shouted to the group of children: "This is my bicycle! My father bought it! You are not allowed to touch it!"
"Dad, let's push into our own yard."
Even as he spoke, he stretched out his hand, trying to push it in hurriedly, but he was so small that he could only touch the handle on one side, and the other hand could only touch the front bumper.
Ye Yaodong looked at his actions of protecting the calf speechlessly, and patted his head, "Go away, you are not as tall as the car, and you still want to push? As soon as I let go, you will be crushed by the car."
"Then push in now."
"Can they move the bikes away, or what?"
"Just don't touch it."
Lin Xiuqing stepped forward and said, "Let me push it in and wash it. It's covered in mud and mud. I need to cook by the way."
"Well, let's cook more. Mom probably doesn't have time to cook."
"knew."
Ye Yaopeng glanced at Sister-in-law Ye at this time and wanted to say something, but swallowed it back.
Father Ye and Mother Ye now eat at Ye Yaodong's house whenever they come to their new home. This seems to have become a habit and acquiescence.
Ye Chenghu was satisfied when he saw the car pushed in. He glanced at the group of children provocatively, then sat back on his small bench to help with the work.
Ye Yaodong didn't understand the mentality of this little brat, nor the complex psychology of his elder brother, so he chuckled a few times and sat down at Lin Xiuqing's seat to help choose.
It's been a long time, but he hasn't finished picking out the second sack yet. Looking at the five or six bags still piled up in rows in the corner, he feels that he really has to wait until the afternoon, and some of them will queue up by then.
After Lin Xiuqing entered the house, the old lady came out again, "What's going on with the pig?"
"I don't know, I haven't found him yet."
"Just come back and pay it back. Don't ask your father for any compensation. Just plant the vegetables again and let them set off two firecrackers for us. It's not easy for people to raise a pig. After raising it for more than half a year, it turned out that They’ve all run away, so we’re in serious trouble now.”
The old lady is still kind-hearted.
"Well, more than one family's pig ran away, and there was another family. One finally appeared. Those two families are probably at odds. Let's see what they say."
"Is it a white pig or a black pig? Or one with spots? Is it easy to identify? They should be able to recognize their own pigs, right?"
"It's a white pig. It's hard to tell. There are quite a few white pigs in the village. The pigs have all run away. Everyone wants to take one back to reduce losses. They will definitely say it is their own."
"If it doesn't work out, let's buy the pig and raise it, and let the two families split the money half. The pigs from both families have run away. The loss is so big, and it's unclear who belongs to it. At least one person can share half. Reduce losses to each other.”
Ye Yaodong gave the old lady a thumbs up and was about to speak when Ye Yaohua spoke up first, "This is a good method. I have been raising it for more than half a year. It will be ready for slaughter by the end of the year. Then we can kill the New Year pig. If the female If it’s a pig, you can still raise its young.”
Sister-in-law Ye had an idea and asked Ye Yaodong, "Is it a boar or a sow?"
"male."
She was a little disappointed, it would have been better if it was a female, but she still said: "Let's go talk to our parents. If they don't want to raise it and don't have time to raise it, then they can raise it for us. We can buy it cheap and crush it." Our vegetable plot needs to be compensated, right? It should be cheaper, right?"
Ye Yaohua thought for a while and said, "It's okay. Dongzi has some stones left when he built the house before. I'll go to other people's houses and have a look. I'll come over a little more evenly and build a pigsty by myself. Let's go there again next spring. Catch both ends, a male and a female."
Sister-in-law Ye also wanted something. She couldn't help but said: "The old lady's small house in the old house is no longer inhabited. We can knock down half of the wall at the door and use it as a pig pen to raise pigs." , Mom should be able to raise it by herself."
"Mom has to go to work, how can she have time? I happen to be free at home, so I will go to the old house to talk to her. It is the old lady's idea." Sister-in-law Ye said that wind is like rain, and she immediately wiped her hands and went to her hometown. .
Ye Yaodong also wanted to eat domestic pigs, but it was too troublesome to ask him to raise them. The pig pens had to be cleaned every three days, and they were still smelly. His family included young and old.
If his second sister-in-law raises them, he can buy them ready-made. Anyway, domestic pigs are very conscientious now, but I don't know if they will work. Originally, it was just a casual comment from the old lady.
Unexpectedly, by lunch time, they had not come back yet.
Just as he was about to ride over to take a look after dinner, he met Ye Er's sister-in-law who was running out in a hurry at the door of his house. He wondered for a moment, when did she come back? Why didn't his father and mother come back?
"Second sister-in-law? When did you come back? Where are your parents?"
"My parents said we would cook noodles at the old house and tidy up the house at the same time. We will come back after the old house is finished, otherwise we won't be able to sleep at night."
"What did the pig say?"
Second Sister-in-law Ye smiled and said, "Thanks to the old lady's idea, when I passed by, the two families who lost the pig almost started fighting. They both said it was their family. They grabbed each other's clothes and almost punched each other. .”
"The neighbors were there to stop the fight, and I didn't dare to step forward. Later, people from the village committee came and pulled the people away. Then I told the old lady what she wanted to do. Later, the village came to negotiate with them, and the matter was resolved. That’s it, otherwise we’ll have to fight again.”
"How did you sell the pig?"
"I gave him a 10% discount on the price of the pig. I treated it as compensation for the vegetable plot and as a thank you. I also asked each of them to set off a bunch of firecrackers for the old house. I won't say anything anymore. I'm going to send the money over quickly."
Seeing that his second sister-in-law was running faster than a rabbit, Ye Yaodong stopped calling her.
Unexpectedly, this fight did not break out, but in the afternoon I heard that the two families had beaten another family.
There was a black pig running outside someone's house. It was caught early in the morning and put in his own pig pen. In the afternoon, a neighbor exposed it and claimed that it was his own and he had no intention of returning it.
Do you raise pigs? How many pigs have you raised? As long as the neighbors don't know, they can't be kind now.
Even Ye's father couldn't help but feel happy when he heard about it. Fortunately, his greedy thoughts only passed by for a moment, and he just wanted some compensation later.
The old lady also said: "We don't want to take advantage of what we can't take advantage of. They are already unlucky enough."
"Yeah." Father Ye responded sarcastically.
"Since you are going to build a pigsty, then you can raise two more pigsties next year. Anyway, you will raise one pig and two pigs. If you don't find it troublesome or tired, just raise two more pigs. This way, it will be an income at the end of the year. "
Ye Yaohua also smiled and agreed.
Ye Yaodong felt that the old lady was kind-hearted and understood that nowadays there are few people who are not greedy for petty gains, and there are still people who pick vegetables from the vegetable fields.
To others, the only problem with the old lady might be that she favors him. Ye Yaodong felt proud when he thought about it.
But the old lady is not bad to her other children and grandchildren, she just treats them all equally.
But now I am a little more concerned about my eldest cousin and my second cousin's family. I often go to their house and often give their children pocket money to buy candies. The most pitiful people for the evil done by adults are the children.
