Catch the sea: start with a sand shovel and take over the entire beach

The reason why Zhao Anguo is happy is that he has finally found his confidence as a father again. Yes, he still needs to take care of his son's important matters.

That's right, these two boys can't do anything without him.

Zhao Ping was also stunned. It turned out that Chen’s father’s name also contained the word Qin. Is it because of this that Uncle Chen has always liked Aqin?

"Aping, it's the festival today. You call Aqin. He's not in town. Buy some good cigarettes and wine and deliver them to Daqin's family first."

"Dad, Aqin should have already sent it away."

"That's good. As long as the old boy accepts the gift, his daughter won't be able to run away, haha."

His mood improved, and when he looked at the house again, Zhao Anguo felt a little dissatisfied, "Aqin is young, and you, the elder brother, don't try to persuade me. What's the point of building such a big house? Besides, I'm just one person, so it's fine." 5 points?"

Zhao Ping knew that it was true that Zhao Qin left five points of land for me to live in, and he also planned to put some groceries in the future, but he couldn't say this.

"Let's go home. By the way, when will your ship come back?"

"It will probably take another five or six months. Dad, we can't handle that boat. Why don't you come back and help us?"

"Can I work for you? It doesn't matter what level you are. Okay, when we get back, I'll see if I can arrange the work. Then I'll come back and follow you on a few sea trips to guide you for a while."

After all, he still couldn't let it go.

When he got home, Zhao Qin happened to arrive home and handed two sets of clothes to his father, "I bought them based on guesswork, but I don't know if they will fit?"

"If there are any good clothes in town, okay, I'll try them on and I can wear them when I go to the construction site for inspections in the future."

On the way back, Zhao Qin wanted to be a filial son, and he swore, but as soon as his father opened his mouth, he had the urge to hit someone.

It's not that I'm unfilial, I really can't do it.

"Dad, the crocodile on your clothes is embroidered backwards. The real crocodile's head is facing left, but yours is facing right. Also, the Pierre Cardin belt you are wearing has two English letters missing.

Oh, by the way, I washed your pants last night, and your Jiumu Wang pants were out of line. "

Jiumuwang is a brand in this province, and its slogan is that it is purely hand-sewn, so there will naturally be no thread leakage.

Xia Rong held back her laughter and quickly ran to the kitchen. After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Ping didn't seem to have enough wisdom to face this situation, so he simply ran to the backyard. In the living room, the two father and son stared at each other with big eyes.

Zhao Qin was angry for a moment, and regretted it the moment he told the truth.

Zhao Anguo's face turned green and red, he sat down and took out a cigarette and started smoking.

As a father, he has too many shortcomings, but his advantages are also obvious, that is, he never beats his children, and rarely yells or scolds loudly. Just like now, although he is angry with shame, he doesn't know how to deal with it for a moment.

I can only eliminate the embarrassment by smoking.

"I'm sorry." Zhao Qin also took out a cigarette, lit it, and took two puffs before saying this in a low voice.

"Hmph, you can make more money than me, so it's normal to look down on me." Zhao Anguo put out his cigarette as he spoke, got up and walked to the backyard and said, "Miaomiao, grandpa will take you to the canteen."

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the old lady and Ah He came. Zhao Qin then remembered that he had forgotten to tell his father that there were two more people celebrating the festival tonight, "Dad, I invited Ah Nai and Ah He to come over to celebrate the festival together. Our boat, Ah He, is also a member."

"The great country is back?" The old lady came in and greeted with a smile.

Zhao Anguo stood up from his seat, faced the old lady and bowed slightly: "Auntie, I think your body is getting stronger every year. Come and sit at home quickly, Aqin, I will pour tea for your grandma."

"I'm just a human being, so you're welcome."

In fact, the old lady didn't want to come, but there was something in her mind. If Zhao Anguo came back and refused to leave, it wouldn't matter whether Ah He was used on the ship or not.

But then I thought about it, Zhao Anguo is an old fisherman, and the three brothers will be too busy after the big boat comes back. It seems safer if Zhao Anguo is with them, so it seems that it would be good not to leave.

"Da Guo, you won't leave when you come back this time, right?"

"That won't work. There's something going on over there in the provincial capital. If I don't watch, those people won't be able to shake things up."

Hearing that he still wanted to leave, the old lady didn't know whether to persuade or agree.

"Auntie, Aqin never said you were coming before. I was planning to go find you early tomorrow morning. You came just in time. I have something to ask of you."

"No matter what, just say it."

"Aqin will be 23 years old after the Chinese New Year. It's not a big deal if he is still studying at this age, but he should be thinking about marriage at home.

You were the most eloquent person in our village more than ten years ago. I would like to ask my aunt to help me with this matter. Do you agree? "

The old lady had worked as a matchmaker earlier, but after Ah He's parents passed away, she suddenly became discouraged and stopped accepting such lively things. When Zhao Anguo said this, she immediately clapped her hands and laughed:

"What a good thing. If you don't think my old lady is stupid, I will definitely agree to come down. I heard A He also mentioned it. Is she the girl from the purchasing station in town?"

"Yes, we are also acquaintances. We ran on the boat together earlier."

Hearing this conversation, Xia Rong put aside his work as a cook and rushed over to join in the fun, "Dad, why don't you treat Uncle Chen to a meal first? It's a bit bad for the old lady to go so rashly. After all, the Chen family doesn't know each other." old lady."

Zhao Anguo looked at Zhao Qin, who said, "I have agreed with Uncle Chen that we will come over to our house for dinner tomorrow night."

Zhao Qin didn't object to their proposal at all. After all, he and Ah Xue had already made actual progress, and they had to go through a process so that Ah Xue could feel at ease.

So even if I don't mention this matter today, when I invite Uncle Chen to come tomorrow, he will explain it to me in advance.

The dinner was naturally sumptuous. In front of the old lady, Zhao Anguo finally became normal in his speech. He stood up frequently to toast the old lady with wine, and he really regarded her as an elder.

At this point, Zhao Qin believed in his father. Although he liked to brag, he was definitely a show off.

After eating, a few people moved small stools and sat in the backyard to chat and eat. They would also eat moon cakes later.

"Aqin, Uncle Chen is coming over tomorrow. How about you stay at home while Ahe and I go out to sea?"

"Let's go out together. Just come back early."

"Going to sea tomorrow? I'll go with you to see it then. I heard you say that a trip to sea can cost tens of thousands. Is it really so mysterious?" Zhao Anguo said.

Zhao Pingping was overjoyed when he heard that he was going to follow him. Maybe I would stay if he saw that he was going to sea and had some success.

Zhao Qin didn't think so. It would be difficult for him to be a fisherman in his duties. He actually had a way to keep him, but he hadn't decided whether to use this method yet. Let's wait and see.

Anyway, although I am already in my 50s, I look strong and strong. If I want to hang out for another two years, let him hang out for two more years.

He might not be able to live a long life without illness or disaster, but if he were left at home, he would be uncomfortable here and unhappy there.

Eating mooncakes is a ritual. Not to mention that Zhao Qin doesn't appreciate it, even A Yuan doesn't like it.

In Zhao Qin's opinion, only the five-nut ones with various sugar threads inside are the real mooncakes that he ate when he was a child. Today's mooncakes can't taste like they did when he was a child.
