Chapter 36 Insufficient Success, More Failure.
After confirming that the boat was borrowed, Ye Yaodong was relieved and walked home leisurely, but halfway through, he thought that the house would start construction tomorrow, so he turned around and walked towards the homestead.
Today it was his second brother's turn to go to sea with his father, his eldest brother stayed at home, and after eating in the morning, he said that he was going to the mountains to pick loess, and he didn't know how many burdens he had picked, so he was indeed a little ashamed to say......
There is really a reason why people's lives are getting better and better, hard work and getting rich, but today is a rare tide on the first day of the new year, and he has already borrowed a boat, so he can only make his eldest brother work a little harder.
Thinking of this, he couldn't get up leisurely, and quickened his pace.
When he arrived at the homestead, there was already a half-human-high loess around him, but he didn't see his eldest brother's figure, only a large pot of tea was placed under the shady tree on the side, and it was estimated that he was going to pick up soil again, he leaned against the tree, thinking about going to take a handle for a while.
When he was reborn, his mentality was already very correct.
After only a few minutes of waiting, he saw his eldest brother come with a two-wheeled hopper cart.
"Big brother!"
Ye Yaopeng looked up and smiled, "Why are you here?" ”
"Come and see, we won't start work until tomorrow, why are you making loess so early now?"
He wiped the sweat from his forehead, poured a big sip of tea and said: "I didn't go to sea today, and I don't have anything to do at home, so I want to go and get a little more loess first. ”
"Anyway, I have to hire someone to do the work, so it's good to do something lighter myself."
"This is the light work, after the start of construction tomorrow, the workers who do rough work will dig pits, and they will go to the mountains to dig stones, carry the stones down the mountain and let the master chisel flat, this loess is already considered light."
Ye Yaodong frowned and nodded, "Okay, I'll go to the mountain with you and give you a hand." ”
Ye Yaopeng looked at him unexpectedly, "You want to help?" ”
"You don't want me to help?"
Depressed, I want to help do a little something, and everyone is so surprised.
"Hehe, okay, then follow me up the mountain to help swing the hoe, we can push a few more carts today." It's rare for the third child to take the initiative to ask for help with the work, how can he push it out.
"I'll just do it for a while, and I'll be back at ten o'clock, I have something to do in the afternoon."
Ye Yaopeng smiled embarrassed, it turned out that he was thinking too much, the third child just came over to take a look, now it's 8 o'clock, where does he want to work hard, just say, how to change sex.
But to be able to come and go, it will help a little bit, indicating that he will rest assured about building a house, it is better than not seeing people all day before, and at night I heard his daughter-in-law say that the third child has gone to help the sea together these days, and it is a little grown.
"Okay, then you can go with me to help, tomorrow when the house starts, you won't run around anymore, tomorrow it's my turn to go to sea with my father, just the second adult man is at home, and the mother has to cook for the workers, so they will definitely not be busy."
"I know."
Ye Yaodong didn't know what his eldest brother was thinking, and even if he knew, he wouldn't be at ease, because this was originally the effect he wanted, and a person's change couldn't be too big and too sudden.
After Ye Yaopeng poured out all the loess in the ash bucket car, he took the initiative to take the handlebar, "I'll push it, you lead the way." ”
"Okay."
Although the gravel dirt road is not very easy to push, but the ash bucket truck is empty, it is quite easy to push, in the past few years, everyone built a house with a shoulder to pick up loess from the mountain, pick stones.
These materials do not cost money, as long as the manpower goes to the mountains to pick them.
At this time, there was no cement used to build a house, but the loess from the mountain was mixed with sand, and then plastered on the stone and piled up to dry, and there were not many bricks, after all, everyone felt that the stone did not cost money, and the house built was firm.
In the case of buildings, bricks will be used on the second floor, because the stones are too heavy and too high to pile up, so there is no brick to save trouble.
In fact, compared with the two, there is no difference in price, although bricks cost money to buy, but stones also need to spend money to hire someone to move, and the master of digging is more expensive.
Although it was the morning sun, it was still scorching, and after just walking for a while, Ye Yaodong was already sweating profusely.
Ye Yaopeng picked up the hoe as soon as he walked to the destination, "It just so happened that I brought two dustpans, I will hoe, and when it is full, you will be poured into the ash hopper car." ”
"Good!"
Two dustpans, one is full, Ye Yaodong will move it up, and the other Ye Yaopeng will continue to use it, and the two of them will work together, and the speed will indeed be faster than that of one person before.
In a few moments, a hopper truck was full.
"I'll push it back, you hoe a little more loess and prepare it? Save yourself time walking around, just push this by yourself. ”
Ye Yaopeng nodded, "Okay, take turns, I'll push it next time." ”
"Hmm."
He was asked to push, and he actually didn't mind, anyway, he went back after an hour or two, and he couldn't push it a few times, but what he didn't expect was that he actually overturned......
After a short stretch of road, a rock tripped over the tire at the corner, and he failed to balance and rolled over on his side......
Ye Yaopeng saw it and walked over, looked at him who was frowning in a word, and patted him on the shoulder, "It's okay, let's put it back again, this road is not good, it won't turn over if you push it a few more times." ”
Ye Yaodong was really a little depressed, he really hadn't pushed the car, so he could only comfort himself like this.
"Fortunately, you saw it, and when you saw it, I guess I will hate the scolding of iron and steel."
"If you are diligent in helping to work, your father will not scold, let's put the soil back first."
He pouted, but pull it down, how diligent is his eldest brother and second brother? If you don't do your job well, you will be scolded!
After loading, Ye Yaopeng didn't let him push it, so as not to fall it again, "I'll push it, you go and hoe more loess." ”
"Okay."
There is more than enough success and more failure, he is still good at catching the sea!
After helping up the mountain for a while, seeing that the time should be about the same, he walked back first.
After waving the hoe for so long, his stomach was already hungry, so he hurried back to eat something to pad his stomach, and he also had to prepare tools for Taohai.
Lin Xiuqing saw that he was sweating profusely, and came back with a flushed face, and asked curiously, "Didn't you go to borrow a boat, why did you seem to go to work, and the whole person seemed to be fished out of the water." ”
"I'm just going to work, when I came out of Ah Guang's house, it was still early, so I went to my eldest brother to help."
The big guys all looked at him in amazement, and actually took the initiative to help transport the loess?
Really?
Looking at everyone's questioning expressions, Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes, "I don't have a share in the house?" If I don't help with some work, Daddy can't break my legs? ”
That's right!
It's just a few days that Father Ye has gone to sea, otherwise Father Ye scolds Ye Yaodong every day at home.
