The whole family's hearts instantly lit up with hope.
Although Dongzi always said that it was fine and that he would be back soon, they also knew that speculation had nothing to do with him and that he would be released sooner or later. But just sitting and waiting like this made them feel uncomfortable.
.
Now there is hope, something to do, and something to rely on, which is better than sitting around and waiting for death.
Ye Yaodong himself was not worried at all. Sitting in the sidecar of a motorcycle, he could still move his buttocks. He could touch here and there and experience the feeling of sitting in the sidecar.
His dogs were so loyal that he was afraid that they would lose them when he followed them all the way. He even asked Comrade Gao Jianshe to slow down during the process.
They have already followed us out, and it’s hard to rush back now. It would be a pity if we don’t know the way and are tricked into eating dog meat.
His family has kept him for so long, and his fur is smooth and shiny. He doesn't look like an ordinary wild dog, and he can eat dog meat in a quilt.
Gao Jianshe was easy to talk to and asked him to slow down, so he slowed down a little to let the dogs behind him catch up.
In fact, they also have dogs at the border guard station, and they have several dogs, but they are all wolfdogs. They usually like to walk dogs. They also saw the loyalty of his dogs at the entrance of the village committee before, and they all had a very good impression.
.
Until they arrived at the gate of the border guard station, they still waved the dogs into the compound.
After Ye Yaodong was brought to the border guard station, everyone looked as if it was really him and started chatting with him.
"It's really you. When I first received the report, everyone was talking about the same name, the same surname, or the same village. It can't be wrong."
"Are you being fucked?"
"Who have you offended recently?"
"Who knows, you are so unlucky, maybe you are jealous of me." Ye Yaodong started to give out cigarettes again out of habit.
He thinks smoking is really a good habit!
Ever since Wang Guangliang and the boys brought firewood to him a few days ago, he felt that when buying cigarettes, he could no longer buy them in packages of two, but had to buy them whole. What if there was not enough points or distribution?
This is a small prop to bring people closer together. I keep two packs of cigarettes in my pocket at all times, so I can smoke them or share them with each other.
Just as he was handing out cigarettes, Gao Jianshe patted him on the shoulder and said, "Why are you so familiar with the people? You were obviously brought here to record a confession."
"Haha, hehe~ Isn't it obvious, am I being fucked? I'm a fisherman who does my duty. I catch all the dried fish myself, and I don't resell them at high prices. I take them to the market...
...Ah, by the way, I also supply troops..."
Ye Yaodong suddenly remembered that this was also his bargaining chip. Adding a little more chips and gold to his body would also make people look at him more favorably.
Although he could see that these people would not do anything to him, he was upright and not afraid of slanting shadows.
But many unjust, false and erroneous cases are just a matter of words.
"Oh? You are also supplying the army, which army are you supplying? Come on, let's go in and record the confession. You can also explain it by the way. Let's finish the work before getting off work. No one will do it.
Who are you delaying?"
"Okay~"
Ye Yaodong thought that after recording the confession and explaining everything that needs to be explained, it should be almost done. At most, if they spend time waiting for their leader's approval, they should be able to let him go back without spending the night.
Unexpectedly, Director Zhang from the Border Guard Station just opened the door and walked in half way through the confession.
"It's really you, you're quite proud."
"Ah?" Ye Yaodong didn't know why and stood up, "How can I alert Director Zhang to come over with such a trivial matter?"
"Bureau Chen called over and said that he knows about your situation and is definitely not speculating. Let's find out more clearly and don't listen to biased beliefs. I originally wanted to record a confession and let you go back after understanding the situation. Now it seems
No need to ask."
He was pleasantly surprised. Who else could be Director Chen? He only knew Director Chen from the County Maritime Safety Bureau.
"Have you alerted Director Chen yet?"
"Well, go ahead, go ahead and go back early."
"It's really troublesome. It wasn't a big deal in the first place, but I didn't expect that it would alarm Director Chen." Ye Yaodong laughed, "I've come here, and I've already spoken half of it. I'll record it, and I can keep it for later use.
, just in case someone is looking for trouble in the future, you can still use it to hold it up."
"Okay, then let's finish recording. It won't take more than a while. Go back after recording. Don't let your family worry."
"Okay, okay, thank you, thank you, thank you, Director Zhang."
Director Zhang nodded and went out directly.
Gao Jianshe knocked on the table with the tip of his pen and said with a smile: "Okay, you have just stepped in with your front foot, and someone has come to protect your back foot. It is a big shot from above. It's awesome. Next time we meet you, we have to be more polite."
It’s one o’clock.”
"No, don't do it next time. This time I've scared my family enough. It's better if I take the initiative to touch you."
"Haha, do you still know Director Chen?"
"I've met Director Chen a few times. He's a very nice person. He's very amiable and has no official airs at all. Okay, let's record it quickly and finish the rest of the questions so I can go back for dinner in a hurry."
"Okay, that's about it. I don't have anything to add. Just take a look and see if there's anything you want to add."
Ye Yaodong didn't name the boss Zhou who had been buying his goods just now, because once he mentioned this person, there must be something wrong with him, and he would obviously be a traitor.
He doesn't want to cause trouble to himself, nor does he want to cause trouble to others.
Legitimate business is definitely fine and allowed, but with this kind of buying and selling, he doesn't know if people are changing hands and raising prices drastically. It's better to do less than to do more.
He glanced at the list and just took a brief look at it. Anyway, it was just a process. Once there was no problem, they went out together.
Ye Yaodong was not in a hurry and left immediately. It was almost time for them to get off work anyway, so he planned to stay and chat with them for a few words, complaining about who was messing with him.
After they got off work, he went out with everyone, and thanked Director Zhang. Then he ran to Deputy Director Tang, said hello, showed his face, and then went to find his dog.
Those police dogs were all tied up and usually looked after. When he found them, his native dog was actually playing quite well with the big wolfdogs.
I told them to leave, but they turned around every step of the way, as if they were reluctant to leave.
"Let's go, let's go. I'll bring you here next time."
When the dogs saw him leaving, they hurried to follow him without hesitation.
One person and two dogs walked slowly down the street.
The summer solstice is the longest day of the year. Tomorrow is the summer solstice, and today's daytime is no less bright. After it cleared up in the afternoon, the sun did not get too weak.
It was obviously almost 6 o'clock, and the sun hadn't even set yet, but it only made his shadow extra long.
However, many stalls on the street have been closed, and everything looks empty. There are also many fewer pedestrians walking on the road. Most of them are carrying burdens and walking in a hurry. Even the shops facing the street are mostly closed.
It's almost dinner time now, everyone is rushing home to eat, and there are far fewer people hanging around.
However, I passed by an open-air skating rink and there were quite a few young people.
Ye Yaodong took a quick look and quickened his pace to go back. However, he still remembered to buy maltose for Ye Xiaoxi, so he looked around at the remaining stalls on the roadside while walking.
Fortunately for him, he met an old man carrying a load who happened to be passing by. There was a large piece of maltose placed on top of his basket.
He quickly stopped the person, took out a dime and asked someone to give him ten dollars.
The stalls were all closed, and on the way back, I didn't expect that I could still make a business. The old man was also very happy. When he hit it with a hammer, he wrapped the broken pieces in newspapers and gave them to him.
Ye Yaodong returned home with a heart as fast as an arrow, and after thanking him, he quickened his pace.
Now that you have bought it, you don’t need to look around anymore. You have to go back quickly to avoid worrying about the whole family.
Normally I don't feel that this stretch of road is very long when I'm riding a bike, but today when I walked it felt like it was never going to end. The sun was also slanting from the west, setting little by little on the other side of the mountain, and the sky was filled with rays of rays.
And the sky began to get darker little by little, and he walked faster and faster.
Fortunately, when we walked at the entrance of the village, it was not dark yet and there was still light, and the aroma of various foods was wafting out from every house in the village.
The weather was hot, so some people set up a small table at the door to eat, while some people stood at the door with their rice bowls. Everyone was eating and chatting about what happened today, and they were all sighing.
"A few days ago, I saw Adong being so beautiful. I didn't expect that today he would be taken away by Big Block. I don't know if he can come back."
"It shouldn't be a big deal, right?"
"It's hard to say. Speculators will be jailed. Now they are being arrested everywhere, especially individuals and those who go into business. I heard that most of them will be caught accurately."
"A Dong shouldn't be considered a speculator..."
"What do you know? If someone says you are, then you are. If others say you are not, then you are not. It all depends on fate."
"It's a pity that he has acquired so much property in just a short time. If he is caught, what will happen to the old and young in the family?"
"What are you afraid of? He doesn't have two brothers? With his brothers looking after him, he is not afraid of being taken over by others. Therefore, it is better to have more sons so that they can help each other and resist risks."
"Now we are no longer allowed to have children. Each family can only have one child. Damn it, what will we fishermen do?"
"You think, if this is a sentence, how many years will A Dong have to be sentenced? It's too miserable for him. He has made so much money, but in the end he has to go in. I don't know who is so wicked?"
"Who knows? Either they are having a holiday or they are jealous, right? Didn't they say they are going to sail back on a big ship tomorrow? Someone must be jealous, otherwise they would not report it at this juncture."
"Maybe it's from another village..."
"Okay now, the big ship didn't come back, but it wanted to take people in... Ah? Adong!?"
"A Dong?!"
"A Dong is back?"
"ah??"
Ye Yaodong listened to various topics discussed about him. When he passed by some people, everyone was still discussing vigorously. But when he turned around, he looked as if he had seen a ghost, and was extremely surprised.
"You're back?"
"Back?"
"You're back so soon? Are you okay?"
He smiled and nodded, "I'm back. Nothing happened. It was just a false alarm. I was just reported. So I was asked to go over and ask questions as a routine. If there was no problem, I was released."
When everyone talked about him along the way, they didn't have any ill intentions. They just discussed it with the mentality of gossiping and chatting. He didn't feel disgusted either. He was also a topical figure in the village.
"Is everything really okay? That's good..."
"That's pretty good, I put it back so quickly."
"It's good to come back, it's good to come back. That is to say, everyone believes that you are not opportunistic. I don't know who is so disgusting and deliberately does this."
"You came back pretty quickly. You went there at two or three o'clock, and now you're back in the dark."
"Isn't it time to have dinner? I walked back quickly and slowly. If I had been riding a bicycle, I would have been home long ago."
This was the center of the village, and there were many people. They were all standing on the roadside at the entrance, eating and enjoying the cool weather. He stopped and said a few words.
Otherwise, in front of him, he would just nod, or respond once or twice, and walk straight over without stopping.
"Then you go back quickly, your family will be worried."
"Your mother had a fight with the Xu family's mother-in-law this afternoon. You should go back quickly to reassure them..."
"Then I'll leave first."
Ye Yaodong was also eager to return home, and started to trot as he walked.
When the dogs that were surrounding his feet saw him running, they all ran home first. They were also very familiar with the roads in the village.
A group of children from the Ye family were all squatting on the roadside at the door, listlessly. They had been sitting there all afternoon. After eating, they started squatting on the roadside again, looking forward to the return of their father (third uncle).
As a result, they never came back, it was completely dark, and they almost gave up waiting. Unexpectedly, they saw their dogs running back one after another, which made them very happy.
They didn't see any dogs all afternoon, and they were worried to death, fearing that they would get lost and be tricked into eating dog meat, but they didn't expect that they would come back after dark.
Several children each held one and touched them happily.
"You are finally back. Has my father come back?"
"Why are you alone, Third Uncle?"
"I thought you were lost..."
The dogs stretched out their long tongues and licked their faces, and then ran back and forth barking.
At this time, everyone also saw the figure appearing at the intersection, and they shouted happily: "Dad, Daddy~"
"Third uncle, third uncle is back..."
"My father is back~"
"Third uncle is back..."
Everyone was running and shouting excitedly.
People in the house ran out one after another when they heard the noise outside, and neighbors on the left and right also hurried out to take a look.
Ye Yaodong watched his two bright-eyed sons surrounding him, one on the left and the other on the right. The other children also gathered around him and shouted happily. He smiled and patted their heads, put his hands on their shoulders, and stood beside the children.
Surrounded by people, they walked towards the door of their house.
"Have you eaten all your food?"
"We went to my second aunt's house next door to eat. My mother and grandma were not in the mood to cook."
"Dad, I knew you would come back. We have been sitting at the door waiting for you."
"Well, it's not a big deal originally."
Ye Chenghu was happy but also a little worried, "Dad, are you fine now that you're back? You won't be captured again, right?"
"No, they didn't arrest me. They invited me, didn't you see? Don't talk nonsense. It doesn't matter whether they invited me or not." He defended with a smile.
The children didn't understand the difference. Anyway, they were happy to see him back.
Chapter completed!
