Chapter 100: The working brother
The innocent words of Zhenyi Lori made Yu Xiaobai speechless.
Then, he had to go out and buy candy.
The sun is very strong, Yu Xiaobai put on a straw hat, sugar can't be bought in this small broken village, you have to go to the town. When he went out, Zhenyi pulled Yu Xiaobai's clothes and begged to go together, but Yu Xiaobai resolutely refused this kind of thing of taking children to the street. It's troublesome just to think about it, and it's useless for him to sell cute tricks or something, don't think he can't see the inner little Jiujiu hidden under the innocent appearance of real clothes.
"Alright, you can play by yourself at home." Yu Xiaobai pushed Zhenyi back to her house without squinting and said.
Mao Yi's eyes sparkled and looked at him, and he stopped talking.
"Needless to say, I'll bring the sugar back soon!" Yu Xiaobai raised his hand and sealed the last thoughts of Zhenyi.
Zhenyi's expression drooped, and he hung his head and said, "Then uncle, come back quickly." ”
Yu Xiaobai nodded, and simply turned around and left.
Gravel people, without looking back, out of Salted Fish Village, Yu Xiaobai looked back, there were two rooms standing in the corner in the distance, one was his, and the other was Changgu's brother and sister.
The little girl who looked at him under the dilapidated wooden house was no longer leaning on the wooden whirl, the door was closed, and the faint sea breeze blew the dried fish that was drying crookedly. Real clothes went back to the house, just said that she was letting her play at home, and what can I play, most of the time I have to knit things.
Walking on the dirt road, Yu Xiaobai helped the straw hat that blocked the sunlight, and at noon, it was past the peak period of the countrymen entering the city, and there was no one. He was not in a hurry, but walked slowly, up the hill and through the ditch, and after thirty or forty minutes, the rough dirt road turned to stone slabs, and the nearest bay town was reached.
"There's no one who goes all the way into the city to buy something for a few pieces of candy." Yu Xiaobai handed over the money to enter the city, walked on the crowded street, and sighed.
Although the Land of the Moon is a small country, Bay Town is a harbor city built on a dock, and commercial activities are still allowed. Yu Xiaobai soon went to the grocery store to buy several different flavors of candy, the shouting and aroma of lunch wafted away, and groups of shirtless sailors and dock handymen began to eat in the restaurant.
Seeing this, Yu Xiaobai thought of Zhenyi's brother, Feng began to go to the city two months ago to find a job to work at the docks, right?
Thinking that he had come, he would visit him by the way, and after Yu Xiaobai ate something by himself, he bought a lunch box and walked to the place where he remembered the dock.
There is no air conditioning made by science and technology, the hot and dry air flow in the middle of the day, the coolness in the salty and humid sea breeze, as early as the shore was squandered by the ship building, when Yu Xiaobai approached the crowded place, all kinds of smells and sounds filled in, people came and went, hawkers and carriages, more than a dozen sailboats approached, people crossed in between, a team of samurai hula to maintain order passed by Yu Xiaobai, rushed to a messy place, this wharf is quite hot.
"Where is Kaede working for someone?" Yu Xiaobai's outfit is completely inconspicuous in the mixed flow of people, and the lively local public health does not seem to be very good, about half of the coolies are wearing very few shirts, the smell of sweat is mixed with the sea breeze, and the smell of various goods is baked by heat, and the noisy central environment is really not good.
It is quite difficult to find a person in a mixed place, but Yu Xiaobai's eyes can, and after walking around for a while, he found the desired goal.
"Good afternoon."
When Yu Xiaobai patted the back of Feng, who was carrying things, the other party was almost frightened.
"Yes, it's Yu Baisang......" Feng saw the person clearly, breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time was surprised.
"Well, go into town and buy something, and come and see you by the way." Yu Xiaobai swept the maple that was soaked in sweat, and the lines were outlined, although he was young, he was a little honest to the point of woodenness, and his body was very strong.
Of course, this is forced out.
Kaede took a breath, put down the goods he was carrying and wiped his sweat, and said with a smile: "What do I have to look at, that's it." By the way, is my sister still well-behaved? ”
Yu Xiaobai's eyelids jumped, looking at the hard-working model brother in front of him, he still let his words be very positive, "Well, your sister stays at home very obediently." ”
"That's good......" Feng's eyes were pleased, and when he saw the things Yu Xiaobai was carrying, he just wanted to ask, when a scolding voice came.
"Nagatani, what are you stealing! There are still ten boxes of goods, and the steward is still staring there, not wanting to have lunch? A big man wearing a vest showing two thick shoulders passed by Yu Xiaobai and Feng, and threw two heavy boxes of things onto the maple ground, "Hurry up and move these over, I'll go back and continue the trip." ”
"Okay senior, do it right away."
The wooden box was thrown to the ground and raised some dust, and the strong man casually glanced at Yu Xiaobai on the side, and went back slowly.
"The man is with you?" Yu Xiaobai ignored the strong man's arrogant eyes and asked Xiang Feng.
"Well, it's Yamada-senpai, who came here half a year before me." Kaede looked at the two boxes of goods added in with a little headache, and then gritted his teeth and moved them with all his might, "It's the leader of my team......"
Speaking of which, Kaede's hands were bruised, and his face was red and speechless.
There is a special manpower organization for unloading and moving goods at the dock, and Kaede is just one of them, the most ordinary one.
Yu Xiaobai nodded to make it clear, he was not interested in caring about that Youya Youzai walking back, he was not so worried about his work as in his words, but more like a paddling Yamada, watching Feng walking very hard, and said kindly: "Do you want to help you?" ”
Kaede didn't speak, just shook his head with difficulty.
Yu Xiaobai didn't insist, and followed Feng to move things into the designated donkey cart, and his whole body was soaked with sweat again. Yu Xiaobai handed the lunch box through the district, "It's for you, see if you haven't eaten." ”
"Huhu...... I've got lunch here. Feng wanted to excuse himself, but when he saw Yu Xiaobai's calm eyes, he still accepted it very vainly for some reason, "Thank you Yu Baisang." ”
There was nothing to continue, and the other party seemed to be busy, "Then I'll go." ”
Yu Xiaobai patted the other party on the shoulder, Feng smiled and waved, put the lunch in his pocket, and trotted back.
After walking for a while, the crowd dispersed again, Yu Xiaobai stopped and looked back at Feng.
On the transportation route, there were several trips, and it was the big man named Yamada who threw the half-moved things to Kaede, and not only that, but the other men who accompanied him also followed in the footsteps of the small leader of the team, handing over the tiring work to the new young man, and constantly cutting corners himself.
By the end, almost half of the ten boxes of cargo were borne by Kaede.
Looking at Feng from afar facing the so-called seniors, scratching his head and smiling to rest, Yu Xiaobai shook his head and went back.
PS: A lot of people have talked about shuriken and kunai.,No matter how the big hands discuss.,Let's define it first.,Shuriken is equal to a dart.,Kunai is a dagger-like weapon with a handle.,The mixing of the previous article has been modified as much as possible.,But because I don't have so much free time.,I hope you don't mind too much if you don't have a place that hasn't been modified.。
The "electromagnetic shuriken" in the previous chapter has also been changed to "electromagnetic kunai", and it feels like the name is a little lower haha.
Ahem, another very important thing is that this book is about to hit the shelves.
