119. Mind
This incident made Ao Muyang ignore it, the day he went to fish for loaches and yellow eels, many children went to catch loaches and yellow eels in the paddy fields, and he never paid attention to it.
For more than ten days, the children went to the paddy fields every day to toss in order to make money from him, and I am afraid that the paddy field households have long been miserable.
It is estimated that because he now has prestige in the village, and the children are unintentional, the paddy farmers are embarrassed to come to him directly.
Ao Zhitong was not very embarrassed to come to him, and when he heard Ao Muyang agree, he also specially explained: "I can't help it, Yang Zai, I can't go to sea at this age, so I rely on this paddy field to earn some living expenses." ”
As he spoke, he frowned even more sadly: "Alas, this year, there was a typhoon, half of the roof of the house collapsed, and I don't know if the money for rice is enough to clean up the house." ”
Typhoon Betty was devastating, causing considerable damage to the coastal areas after its landfall, and many houses in the village were in trouble.
It's good to say that the weather is hot now, and the house is not cold when it leaks, but it is quite cool. But after August and September, it will be autumn, and if the house is not repaired properly, the old man will suffer.
The old man was even more worried when he thought of this, his face was full of wrinkles as if carved out of an inferior carving knife, each with the pain of years of torture, and the whole person was like an old animal, and he could only accept it in the face of life, lifeless.
Ao Muyang frowned and said, "Grandpa, your roof was torn off by a typhoon?"
Ao Zhitong sighed and said, "Alas, yes. ”
Sun Fuhua said with a cigarette: "Old man, the roof of your house has been lifted, this is considered lucky, the courtyard walls of several families have been overturned!"
He spoke in a relaxed tone, he had seen a lot of such things, and to say something unconscionable, the more such things he had, the happier he became, because it meant that the more work he had for the engineering team, and the more money he could make.
Ao Muyang asked, "Do you know the situation of my grandfather's family?"
Sun Fuhua nodded: "I've looked around, and I have a little impression that a roof at the east of the house has been lifted, right?"
Ao Zhitong nodded blankly, and his face became more and more sad: "Yes, the roof at the east end of the house has been lifted." ”
Ao Muyang asked, "How much does it cost to repair the roof of his house?"
Sun Fuhua said: "Let's talk less about 37,800 yuan, the labor cost is high these years, and the old man's house is an old brick house, those blue bricks and blue tiles are not easy to find, I am talking about the price of red bricks and red tiles, if you want to use the previous blue bricks and blue tiles, the five thousand yuan can't be beaten." ”
Ao Muyang pondered for a moment and said, "I'll give you 5,000 yuan, Boss Sun, you bother to find the old blue bricks and blue tiles, and repair the roof for my grandfather." ”
Hearing him say this, Ao Zhitong was stunned, and then he hurriedly waved his hand: "Hey, no, this is not needed, I will do it myself, just buy some bricks and tiles and clean it up." ”
Ao Muyang shook his head and said: "Don't be tough, with grandpa, what should you do if you go to climb the roof at your age, what if something happens?" I'll ask Boss Sun to help you repair it, just as I apologize to the children in the village for digging your paddy fields." ”
Ao Zhitong still waved his hand and said, "No, no, Yangzai, you are a good baby, I know." I can do this myself, and I'll find Dayong to come back and do it. ”
Someone in the village was playing here, and when they heard his words, they smiled and said, "Uncle Tong, Dayong, can you count on Shangcao, that Xiong Bi still remembers that you have a father?"
The old man leaned his neck, lowered his eyes, swallowed his saliva, and then sighed deeply: "Alas!"
"Okay, Uncle Tong, listen to Yangzi, Yangzi is kind enough to help you, can you find another such baby in the village besides him?"
Sun Fuhua said: "Brother Xiaoyang is bright, what, old man, I'll give you a discount like this." ”
Saying that, he calculated: "Blue bricks and blue tiles are not easy to find, I will charge you the cost price of this thing, and I will tell the brothers about the labor money, if you smoke Brother Xiaoyang's cigarettes and drink wine at night, let's order less, it is estimated that it will be 45,600 yuan." ”
Ao Zhitong gratefully closed his neck and shrunk his shoulders at the same time, and said to Ao Muyang: "That Yang boy, I thank you." ”
The old man's action of closing his neck was tantamount to bowing, Ao Muyang hurriedly supported him and said: "Grandpa, this is a trivial matter, you don't have to think about anything, I will go to the village to see if there is anyone who can't repair the house by himself, I will help in one go." ”
Ao Qianying, who was drinking tea in the shade of the tree, said: "Yoko, I'm with you, I don't have much money, but I can help with the work." ”
"I'll go too, I'll go, let's go and take a hand together. ”
"I'm going to call my brother, let's go, people of the same clan and clan, if you encounter this natural disaster, you have to help together. ”
Ao Zhitong said again: "Yangzai, my house doesn't need old tiles and old bricks, red bricks and red tiles are cheap, use red bricks and red tiles." ”
Sun Fuhua said: "It can be cheaper by a thousand ......"
Ao Muyang interrupted him and said: "No, just use old bricks and tiles! Listen to me with grandpa, this house has to keep its original appearance, I know in my heart, and you will know the benefits of using old bricks and tiles in the future." ”
Longtou Village is a big village, and there are still many lonely and widowed elderly people in the village.
This is the bitter life of the fishermen, who have been out to sea for many years, and there are people who have accidents at sea almost every year, and after decades of accumulation, the lonely and widowed families in the village will naturally not be rare.
Ao Muyang went to these houses to take a look, and if there was a problem with the house, he asked Sun Fuhua to count it, and when the time came, he arranged for people to repair it door to door, and he calculated the money.
Ao Fugui came when he heard the news, and after listening to his arrangement, he said angrily: "Yangzi, this matter should not be done by you, you should let Ao Zhiyi do it, this is a matter in the village." ”
Ao Muyang asked, "Will he do it?"
Ao Fugui snorted: "Don't even think about it!"
Ao Muyang spread his hands and said, "Isn't this enough? If he doesn't do it, then I'll do it." ”
Ao Fugui's eyes widened and said: "But this matter has nothing to do with you, this is the matter of the village committee, what about the cadres of the village committee, you are meddling." ”
Ao Muyang said: "How can this be considered nosy? This is the old man and grandmother who watched us grow up, when we were young, we didn't go to other people's fields to steal peanuts and steal buds, and our parents went to sea, and we didn't go to other people's homes to eat and drink, didn't we?"
Ao Fugui smiled awkwardly: "Yes, that's the case." ”
Ao Muyang patted him on the shoulder and said, "So, people must always be grateful, besides, I have my own purpose in doing this." ”
"What purpose?" Ao Fugui asked subconsciously.
Ao Qianlai, who looked stupid and stupid, turned his face and said: "Now the village committee is rubbish, our village will be changed next spring, and the village chief of Jiba, who was done by Uncle Zhiyi, masturbated him!"
Ao Fugui suddenly realized.
Ao Muyang was taken aback, he looked at Ao Qianlai in surprise and said, "Uncle Qianlai, my purpose is so obvious?
Ao Qianlai still looked stupid: "What purpose?"
"You just said that the change of office or something, didn't you say it?"
Ao Qianlai Mumu nodded: "Yes, I heard Fugui say that this matter is a matter of the village committee, but the village committee doesn't do anything, and next year, it's all done!"
Ao Fugui blinked and said, "How long have I been talking, you just reacted?"
Ao Qianlai's face was dazed: "You have been talking for a long time? No, I just heard it." ”
