Chapter 395 Don't dream, where can I get the spare money?
"What do you know, kid? It's normal to spend half a day preparing before going out to sea!"
"Are you going or not? If not, I'll leave by myself later."
Wu Shuisheng threatened with a guilty conscience.
"When do you have to prepare for a night trip to the sea right after lunch? Do you want to go back and watch TV?"
Chen Huihong directly exposed Wu Shuisheng's little trick.
Wu Shuisheng had no way to deal with her, so he smiled and explained:
"This time it's really not!"
"Wu Guang's wife's hand was injured, and she didn't even repair the fishing net last time."
"We agreed that everyone would go to his house half a day in advance to mend the fishing nets together."
Chen Huihong grinned and said with a fake smile: "I didn't say it was all true before, but it turns out that he just happened not to be one, so I became a bad guy for nothing."
"Wife, please help me pack a set of clothes to take with me." Chen Hui whispered to An Wenjing.
He stood up and took out a pack of cigarettes from the cabinet.
He turned the cigarette over, tapped it on his palm, and said casually:
"Then we'll set off in half an hour."
"Wen Jing, go help me pack my clothes. I'm going to go find Uncle Guo Biao and ask him for a few days off."
Chen Huihong saw that Chen Hui felt a little guilty, so she took the cigarette from his hand and said, "I'll go and talk to him for you later. We are of the same generation."
Chen Guobiao is tough and aggressive towards Chen Hui because he is both a disciple and a junior.
He is much more polite to his peers.
"Thank you, aunt, for saving my life!" Chen Hui clasped his hands together and raised them above his head and said.
"Grumpy."
Chen Huihong cursed with a smile, then stood up to collect the dishes and went to the kitchen to wash them.
An Wenjing was packing things for Chen Hui in the room.
I can’t help feeling a little sad when thinking about having to stay alone in an empty room for the next two days.
In order not to reveal it, she handed the things to Chen Hui and went into the kitchen to wash the dishes together.
Chen Hui and Wu Shuisheng arrived at Dasa Village and, according to their old custom, took all their things back home first.
Passing by the door of a fellow villager who has a TV at home.
Wu Shuisheng looked inside, his eyes revealing longing.
"Uncle, let's go!" said Chen Hui.
"Come on, come on, your house will be almost finished, and I'll be free then."
Wu Shuisheng waved his hand and spoke as he walked.
"It's so inconvenient to go to someone else's house to watch TV every day."
"If you ask me, it would be more comfortable to put a TV in the room and watch it while lying on the bed."
“Especially in the winter.”
Chen Hui daydreamed for a moment.
When Chenjia Village has electricity, I will buy a TV and a DVD player for my home.
Not only can you watch it in bed, but you can also watch it with An Wenjing.
It's exciting just thinking about it.
"Don't dream! There are so many things to spend money on at home, how can we spare the money to buy a TV?"
"I still want to watch TV in bed instead of working. That's a nice thought."
Wu Shuisheng waved his hand in front of him.
Chen Hui smiled and did not refute him.
After putting my things and bicycle back home and on my way to find Wu Guang, I passed by the door of that fellow villager's house again.
Chen Hui pushed Wu Shuisheng and said, "Uncle, go in and watch TV. I'll go help you mend your fishing nets."
"You're going to mend the fishing nets? Really?!"
"You've seen me mending a fishing net, haven't you? I'm pretty good at it, right?"
"No, I mean, really, I'm going to watch TV and you're going to work?"
Compared to before, Chen Hui is now much more sensible.
But even though he was so sensible, Wu Shuisheng still found it a little hard to believe.
Chen Hui nodded. "It's rare for you to come back. Go and relax. I'll go to Uncle Guang's house to work."
"Chen Hui! Uncle now thinks you are such a good boy!"
Wu Shuisheng patted Chen Hui on the shoulder and strode into the home of a fellow villager. He soon came out of the home and trotted after him.
"Uncle, aren't you going to watch TV?"
"The power is out. They said it will last until five or six!"
"Then go after dinner. I'll call you when it's time to go out to sea."
"After dinner, it's dark, and every household has to turn on the lights, so there's no extra electricity for the TV."
Wu Shuisheng sighed, "My sister Rong, I don't know what's going on with her."
Chen Hui laughed and joked with him a few times. When they arrived at Wu Guang's house, they heard Wu Guang swearing angrily inside.
Before the two men could come forward, a middle-aged man who looked to be in his thirties hurried out of his house.
When he saw Wu Shuisheng, he came up to him awkwardly, said hello and left.
"Who is this person?!" Chen Hui asked.
"The second son of the Wu Guang family." After Wu Shuisheng said this, he took Chen Hui in.
Wu Guang was very angry and was cursing at the air.
Seeing the two people coming in, he restrained his emotions and said, "You are here!"
"What's going on? Your second son doesn't look like someone who would dare to argue with you!"
Wu Shuisheng was curious and started to care about Wu Guang.
"Hey!"
Wu Guang sat down on the stool in frustration, sighed and said:
"My wife's hand is injured and she can't do any heavy work."
"The eldest and his wife have too much work to do in the fields. I thought we could do some together in the afternoon and ask the second son to mend the fishing nets."
"You know what he told me?"
"He said that the boss will live with us, and the money we earn from going out to sea will definitely benefit the boss!"
"Letting him mend the fishing nets is taking advantage of him to subsidize the boss!"
As Wu Guang spoke, his emotions, which had just begun to calm down, became tense again.
If you are so angry, you will hit someone with a carrying pole.
"Uncle Guang, go to work in the afternoon. I'll help you make up your share." Chen Hui stopped him and said.
Anyway, there was nothing else for him to do in Dasa Village except looking for Wu Sigong.
I've been feeling restless lately.
It's also nice to do some delicate work that requires patience and calm your mind.
"Ah?!" Wu Guang looked at Chen Hui in surprise.
"His skill in mending fishing nets is not inferior to Huihong's."
"This benefit was originally intended for me, but there's a power outage today and I have no TV to watch, so I'm giving it to you," Wu Shuisheng said with a smile.
"Chen Hui, are you serious?!"
Wu Guang still couldn't believe it.
"Why do you all have to ask this?"
"Do I look idle or clumsy?" Chen Hui was a little speechless.
Wu Guang didn't know what to say.
He quickly made tea for Wu Shuisheng and Chen Hui.
He carried a basket on his back and repeatedly said, "Dine at my house tonight. I'll ask Yuzhu to come back early and bring some good food."
"No need for good food, just something casual will do!"
"Go quickly!" Chen Hui waved his hand and said.
Wu Guang smiled at Chen Hui and went out with a heart full of emotion.
Not long after, Wei Jianjun and Wu Dahua also arrived.
With the help of four people, the fishing net that would have taken two days to repair was repaired in less than half a day.
When Liu Yuzhu and Wu Guang came back from the mountain, the repaired fishing nets were already neatly hung on the rack.
Wu Shuisheng and Wei Jianjun sat on the steps, smoking and chatting.
Chen Hui and Wu Dahua are non-smokers. They are on the other side of the yard, discussing when to transplant the plum trees.
"You guys are done?! So fast?"
"I wanted to come back earlier to catch up with you guys!" Wu Guang said in surprise, and walked to the shelf to take a look.
