Chapter 207 Exciting Prizes
After sorting the fish on the boat, Brother Li's family of three pulled a cart home. Chen Yongwei rode a tricycle to sell fish at Tuxiaqiao first. Li Changle and Brother Li took the fish sold by Dong Chen's family to the seafood shop.
.
The two brothers came out with about ten yuan each, bought a barrel of diesel and stored it in Chenji, and walked back in the bright sun.
When I got home, I saw bamboo flats all over the yard, and eels hanging on the bamboo racks in the alley. It was windy in the alley, and I didn't see any flies yet.
Even though the dried fish and shrimps were dried on bamboo flats in the yard, they were covered with fishing nets, but there were still so many flies buzzing and circling around them that it made me feel upset just looking at them.
"There are so many flies, we have to find a way."
"That's a lot. It's more when the sun goes down." Brother Li looked used to it and laughed at his fuss.
Li Changle suddenly remembered the methods of driving away flies taught in short videos before. He walked home happily and decided to give it a try.
These days, the mountains and rivers are good, but the sanitary conditions are not good enough. Unlike in later generations, open-air latrines and cesspits have long been replaced by toilets and septic tanks. The sewage is discharged directly from the sewer into the long pond and then into the sea...
But by that time, the water chestnuts in the Chang Pond were gone, and the fish and shrimp in the pond were gone, leaving only the black and smelly sewage in the pond.
Li Xiaohai, who was squatting there playing with the dog, saw him coming back and happily greeted him, "Abba, Grandpa Dong is coming home. He asked you and Uncle Awei to go to the brigade headquarters at two o'clock to give you prizes.
"
Li Xiaobo also ran over, "Third Uncle, the loudspeakers in the village have shouted, let everyone go!"
"Third uncle understands and will go as soon as the time comes."
"Ah Le, Ah Dong said that the leaders of the Maritime Safety Administration and the police station are also coming, and there are people coming to take photos of you, and they are also going to be published in the newspaper!" Li's father came out of the house and said.
"For such a big battle, have you mentioned any prizes?"
"You don't care what prizes he gives out." Li's father said cheerfully, "It will be very honorable to take photos with the leaders of the police station and maritime safety bureau."
Brother Li: "Ale, remember to ask them to take a photo of you. If anything happens in the future, you can also ask the leader for help."
Li Changle felt that what they said was right, and looked at the two of them with a smile, "Why don't you go and take a look later?"
"Your brother and the others don't have time. Ah Jin came here in the morning and asked you to come back to Li'ao. He will take you to the brick kiln to see the bricks and tiles, and he will also hire a few cargo ships to haul stone slabs on the waterway."
Father Li paused for a moment, "When the bricks, tiles and stones are brought back, we have to go to the mountain to cut some moso bamboo and build a bamboo shed. I will go there and keep watch."
Li Changle looked at the time and said, "It's only twelve o'clock. It means two o'clock. It would be good to start at two thirty. After dinner, I will go up the mountain with Awei and chop the moso bamboo back first."
"The food is ready. I'll wait for you to come back to eat." Father Li said and walked back.
Li Changle went home and found a sugar jar. He searched around but couldn't find any washing powder and only found a small piece of soap.
After thinking about it, I went back and took out the jar of alkali powder from the cupboard, found a few remaining plastic jars, and poured half of the water into them.
I grabbed some sugar and alkali powder and put them in it. I broke the soap into pieces and put it into the jar. I stirred it a few times with a stick and stopped when I saw foam.
Li Xiaohai looked at him curiously, "Abba, you don't need to put sugar or that pink one when you blow bubbles."
"Abba doesn't blow bubbles, they are used to kill flies."
"Can this kill?"
"You'll know if you try it!" Li Changle smiled and handed him a jar, "Help dad take it and put it under the bamboo pole. After eating, see if the flies have been killed?"
"Oh!" Li Xiaohai took the jar and came forward to smell it before walking into the yard.
Li Changle carried the rest of the jars in the dustpan and placed the jars in the places with the most flies. He turned around and saw his son squatting in front of the jars to guard them. He held him in his arms and walked towards his parents in a funny way.
"Abba, can bubble water really kill flies?"
"Yes, if you keep them here, they won't dare to eat them."
When the father and son entered the house, the food was already laid out.
Zhou Ruonan saw him coming in and said to him: "I took Xiaoyu to the town this morning to buy the jars. When the tide goes out, you can take him down there when you have time."
Li Changle nodded in agreement, and the adults hurriedly finished their meal and then got busy.
Li Changle went to Chen's house to call Chen Yongwei, and the two went to the bamboo forest of Li's house.
The bamboo forest is on the mountain behind Laoye Palace. This kind of bamboo is more than 20 meters long, and the thickest part is as thick as the mouth of a bowl.
The two picked four or five moso bamboos that had grown into greenish-yellow colors and cut them into pieces. They dragged them down the mountain and onto a cart to pull them to Nanshan. They unloaded them and went home. It was already two o'clock in twenty minutes.
As soon as Zhou Ruonan saw him, she said: "Ah Le, hurry up. Grandpa Dong has come to see you twice, and Aniang has taken Xiaohai and the others to the brigade headquarters."
"Okay!" Li Changle took two steps and then turned back, "Have you killed the fly?"
"Killed, there were a lot of them, my sister-in-law and I put a few more jars in." Zhou Ruonan looked at him in surprise, "Where did you learn that?"
"After hearing what those people said, I gave it a try, but I didn't expect it to really work."
"It's just a little waste of sugar. It would be better if I didn't use sugar." Zhou Ruonan said and urged, "Hurry up, it will be too late later."
"It's enough time." Li Changle looked at her proudly, "Why don't you watch me win the award?"
"I saw that grandma and dad wanted to go, so I let them go. There are so many dry goods at home, and my second sister-in-law and I are keeping watch at home, and we have to kill fish."
"All right!"
Li Changle hurriedly scrubbed and changed into clean clothes. When he arrived in the alley, he saw Chen Yongwei with a blushing face, standing there talking to Jin Chan. Both of them blushed when he came.
Li Changle felt that people these days were still honest, so he looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "They all looked at me with red faces, so hurry up and go to the brigade headquarters!" After that, he took the lead and walked towards the brigade headquarters.
Chen Yongwei pulled Jin Chan's hand, and the two hurriedly followed.
Some of the villagers he met on the road asked him what prizes the superiors were going to give him at the meeting today, and some asked him if they were going to give him money.
"I didn't receive the notice, and I don't know what kind of reward will be given?" Li Changle said and strode away.
Just after crossing the stone arch bridge, I saw Accountant Chen walking over in a hurry. I saw him giving me an angry look, "Why are you two so nagging? The cadres are almost here, but you haven't arrived yet."
Li Changle smiled and took out the cigarette and handed it over, "Why are you always in such a hurry? It's almost here. It's not here yet. We just need to get there on time. Why are you waiting so early?"
"The leader of the police station will come later, be honest and don't be so playful." Accountant Chen warned, holding a cigarette in his mouth, putting his hands behind his back, and turned around and walked towards the conference room.
"Don't worry, it won't be!" Li Changle followed up with a smile, "Uncle A Dong, is your Principal Chen back?"
As he spoke, he waved his hands to Chen Yongwei and Jin Chan, signaling them to walk faster. The two nodded and hurriedly walked towards the conference room.
Accountant Chen glanced at him and said, "I've been very busy these past two days. I might not have time to come back until school starts."
"Uncle A Dong!" Li Changle looked at him with a flattering look, "You know my A Nan. He has been working hard in the school for several years. Could you please ask Principal Chen when he can become a full-time student?
"
Last time, Anan said that he wanted to become a regular employee as soon as possible, so he was thinking about coming to see Adongbo at some point. His boss would definitely be able to help with this matter.
After hearing this, Accountant Chen pondered for a moment and then said: "When he comes back, you can bring Ah Nan to the house and ask him."
Nan is doing well in school, and the teachers in the school are also very satisfied with her performance. They are all relatives who can help her.
Li Changle thought that Zhou Ruonan's job was only possible because of his help, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Uncle A Dong. Thanks to your care over the years, my family is living the life it is now."
Accountant Chen looked back at him with a smile, "Your family's current life is earned by your own efforts. If you are still as high-minded and low-handed as before, I won't even bother to talk to you."
"Don't worry, I will live a down-to-earth life from now on."
"Okay!" Accountant Chen patted him, "Hurry in and put on the big red flower, the leader is coming soon."
Please...you...collect_(Six\\\Nine\\\Books\\\!)
"Ah~" Li Changle stopped, "You still want to wear a big red flower?"
"You're not ugly, so what are you afraid of?" Accountant Chen smiled and pushed him in.
When Li Changle entered, he found that many people were already sitting inside. Chen Yongwei's face was flushed and he was wearing a big red flower. He stood there uncomfortably and looked at him with a silly smile.
Grandma Chen, Jin Chan and the Li family were sitting in the second row. Lai Xiaomei and a dark-skinned girl with a big face were also sitting inside. The two looked at Chen Yongwei with complicated expressions.
As soon as the two sons saw him, they ran towards him and said, "Abba, Uncle Awei has become the groom's official."
Li Changle rubbed the heads of the two children and said, "Uncle Awei will be the groom's officer next year."
Several nephews, nieces, Father Li, and Mother Li all looked at him with smiles, as if he had really done something great and good.
The women's director gave him a big red flower and praised him: "Aunt Ah Hua, your Ah Le looks good. He looks even more handsome with the big red flower."
Father Li and Mother Li looked at their son, grinning from ear to ear with joy. They did not expect that they would see their son wearing a big red flower to receive the award.
Li Changle stood on the stage wearing a big red flower and felt uncomfortable, feeling that he couldn't even find a suitable posture to stand.
"Abba, I want to wear a big red flower too!" Li Xiaozhou ran up and took his hand and said.
Li Changle looked at his son and immediately felt at ease, "Abba is handsome, isn't he?"
"Handsome!" Li Xiaozhou held his hand proudly, "My father is more handsome than the groom!"
Li Xiaohai hurriedly corrected him, "Abba is not the groom's official, Abba is here to receive the prize."
After the two children interrupted, Chen Yongwei felt much more at ease. He looked down at his grandma and Jin Chan who were looking at him with smiles on their faces, smiling brightly.
After Lai Xiaomei saw it, she suddenly felt uncomfortable and pulled the dark-faced girl out of the venue.
When Party Secretary Wang saw a car approaching from Changtang, he hurriedly stood on the stage and said to everyone: "Quiet, quiet! Everyone, sit down, the leader of the police station is coming."
After hearing this, Li Changle held his son's hand, pulled Chen Yongwei again, and sat down.
