The phone was connected.
"Hey, who's that?" A rough voice came from the earpiece, which was the voice of Boss Chen.
"It's me, Xiao Jiang." Jiang Yichen breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that Boss Chen was fine.
"Xiao Jiang, it's you! You're still alive, but you're fretting me! Thank goodness for that! Boss Chen's voice suddenly raised, and his tone was excited.
When the relationship calmed down a little, the two chatted about the accident that day.
Boss Chen told him that because he couldn't see clearly in the rain and fog at that time, he accidentally collided with another oncoming cargo ship, and the bow of the ship hit a big hole in the front of the other party, and almost had a big accident. Later, emergency measures were taken, and all the crews of both sides desperately rescued until the rescue ship arrived, and finally saved the day. Except for a few minor injuries, nothing else was fine.
The number of people was counted later, but it was found that he was missing, presumably washed into the sea during the rescue process. At that time, my head was confused, and I searched around the nearby sea, but there was no clue because of the heavy rain and waves. I thought that basically there was more luck and less luck.
The bow of the ship was damaged, so he had no choice but to turn around and return to port, and at the same time reported to Haijing and the search and rescue center. Later, when the weather improved, the center dispatched a search and rescue boat, but after two trips, it was not found.
He only knew Jiang Yichen's name and mobile phone number, and he couldn't get through when he tried to call, so he was so anxious that he couldn't sleep at night. The search and rescue ship is still searching for the accident area, but the search area has been expanded.
"You didn't notify my family, did you?" Jiang Yichen was worried about what his father would be in a hurry when he found out about this.
"No, I don't know your phone number or address. Unless Jing Fang checks it according to the mobile phone number. Boss Chen said.
Jiang Yichen also told the other party about his situation, saying that he accidentally fell into the water and was washed away by the waves to an island, and was later rescued by a fishing boat, and had just arrived at Shihezi Wharf, and was now preparing to go home directly. Let him tell the search and rescue center that he is safe.
Boss Chen finally begged him, saying that when he reported Jing, he only explained that it was an acquaintance who took the boat, and did not admit to illegally carrying passengers. If Jing Fang verifies the situation with him and asks him not to expose it, otherwise it is very likely that his operating license and license will be revoked, and his whole family will be finished. He also said that if there are any conditions and requirements, just put them forward, so that they can be discussed and discussed.
Jiang Yichen understood that it was not easy for Boss Chen to drag his family with him, and he didn't have anything to do with him anyway, so he promised not to report him, and he didn't mention any conditions.
Boss Chen was grateful when he heard this, and said that in the future, he would sit on the boat casually and would not charge a penny. If there's anything he needs help with, just ask.
Hanging up the phone, Jiang Yichen took out the change and handed it to the shopkeeper, and asked him about the specific location of the long-distance bus, and then left.
Half an hour later, Jiang Yichen got on the bus to Puheng County and set out on the way home.
After more than two hours of travel, Jiang Yichen returned to his home in Puheng County.
His home is located on the edge of the western part of the county, an old five-story brick and concrete structure built in the 80s as a family building for the agricultural machinery factory.
went up to the third floor, knocked on the door of room 302, the door opened, and a middle-aged man in his fifties appeared, with a thin face, who was his father Jiang Guoming.
"Dad." Jiang Yichen shouted.
"Well, Xiao Chen, why did you only come back today?" When Jiang Guoming saw him, he frowned and asked strangely.
"Oh, the school has something to ask for, and it's been delayed for a few days. The phone is also broken, and I can't call. Jiang Yichen hurriedly explained that he didn't want his father to know about the collision.
"Come in, come in, I said, I can't call you." Jiang Guoming let him into the house and found another pair of slippers for him to change into.
Jiang Yichen put down his satchel and looked at his father while changing his shoes.
I haven't seen him for a while, and I seem to be a little older than before, with more gray hair, obvious crow's feet at the corners of my eyes, and a slightly hunched back.
Jiang Yichen felt a little sour in his heart, but he couldn't say it clearly. I had to pretend that nothing happened and asked him how he was doing lately.
"Hey, it's just the same old way, and there's nothing wrong with it. Look at your kid has been tanning lately, but it's okay, it looks stronger than before. By the way, it's almost noon, I'll go out and buy some groceries, and you can clean up at home. Jiang Guoming said lightly, then took out a woven bag from the wall hook and walked out the door.
"Dad, aren't you going to work today?" Jiang Yichen asked.
"Restless, there isn't much work in the factory now." Father's voice came from the top of the stairs.
Jiang Yichen looked at the situation in the room, the furniture, furnishings, electrical appliances, etc., were basically the same, and there was no change. The rubber paint on the wall has turned yellow, and the skin of the wall has begun to peel off in a few corners of the roof.
He walked into his small room, which was a nine-square-meter room, where he had lived since elementary school, and it had been more than ten years now.
A qiē is a familiar look, a single bed, a desk, a wardrobe, and a photo frame hanging in the middle of the west wall, which is a family photo. The frames are clean, spotlessly clean and appear to be wiped down frequently.
A young couple sits upright in a chair facing the camera. The round-faced short-haired woman was holding a chubby baby in her arms, smiling and happy.
This is their family. The same photo was taken in my father's bedroom, but it was a little bigger.
It's a pity that not long after taking this group photo, a serious illness took away his mother, and the family was completely destroyed.
My father loved my mother very much, and I still haven't continued the strings, and my relatives and friends have advised him, but my father is still stubborn.
Jiang Yichen sighed, packed up his belongings, and went to the bathroom to wash his face.
Not long after, Jiang Guoming came back, with the vegetables and fruits he had just bought in a woven bag, and he was still carrying a fresh grass carp in his hand.
Then greeted Jiang Yichen, and the two entered the kitchen together to prepare lunch. Of course, Jiang Yichen served as the corner.
Forty minutes later, a sumptuous meal opened on the square table in the dining room.
Stir-fried beans, shredded pork with chili peppers, cold garlic cucumbers, peas and tofu soup. The main course is a chopped pepper grass carp, with bright red chopped pepper dices scattered over the fatty fish, which is appetizing.
Jiang Yichen knew that if it weren't for the fact that he had just come home, his father would usually be reluctant to eat like this.
Stretch out your chopsticks and pick up a piece of fish meat and put it in your mouth, salty, spicy, fresh, fragrant, full of relish.
"It's delicious, Dad, your craft has grown again." He couldn't help but compliment.
"That's what your aunt often says. Well, eat more, and the second meal will taste much worse. By the way, watch out for fish bones. Jiang Guoming said quite complacently, his cooking skills have been honed over many years of cooking, and he is well-known among relatives and friends.
"By the way, I almost forgot." Jiang Yichen suddenly slapped his head, got up and walked to the bedroom, and when he came back, he had two bottles of liquor in his hands.
