Chapter 317 Crying with Joy
Grandma Li Shi looked confused.
Ye Qing said, "I remember during the summer vacation of my first grade, I went to the west mudflats to look for shells, and I got stuck in it."
"There aren't many people in the western wasteland."
"I screamed until my voice was hoarse, but no one came to rescue me until the tide came in."
"I thought I was dead, but Brother Shi came and saved me."
"I'll remember this for the rest of my life."
"Compared to what I've done, Brother Shi saved my life, and no matter how I repay him, it won't be enough."
He never told anyone about this.
When I was a child, I was afraid of being beaten.
His parents repeatedly warned him not to go to the beach alone to catch fish and shrimps because it was too dangerous, but he was a naughty boy who listened with one ear and ignored them with the other.
It wasn't until he encountered danger on the mudflats that he learned his lesson.
As he grew older, he no longer had the chance to talk about this matter with others.
Grandma and Li Sanhe turned to look at Li Shi.
Li Shi raised his head, with a grain of rice standing at the corner of his mouth, and said in confusion: "Qing... Qingzi, you are talking nonsense. I don't remember this happening."
Grandma and Li Sanhe looked at Ye Qing again.
Ye Qing was really at a loss for words. The so-called unknown nature of this matter was that even Li Shi did not take saving him seriously, thinking it was just a piece of cake.
Li Shi's brain has a seriously insufficient storage capacity.
Ye Qing said: "Before, Brother Shi and I were much older than each other and never played together. But since then, Brother Shi and I have often played together."
"Uncle Sanhe, Grandma, please think carefully about whether this is the case."
"I don't need to deceive you about this."
Li Sanhe thought for a moment and said, "That seems to be the case. At that time, Shizi was fifteen or sixteen years old and was still being bullied by Cai Louzi's son. I was so worried. Suddenly one day, you helped Shizi get rid of Cai Louzi's son."
"I often bring Shizi along to play with me."
"I was wondering why no one wanted to play with Shizai. So this is what's going on."
Ye Qing smiled and said, "Yes, when I was little I took Brother Shi to play. Now that I'm grown up, I help Brother Shi make money. That's what I should do."
"So, Grandma, Uncle Sanhe, please stop thanking me profusely."
"Let's all be comfortable."
"In the future, just wait and enjoy your life. Brother Shi will make a lot of money, build a big house, marry a good wife, and be filial to you."
Hear this.
The old lady and Li Sanhe were wiping away their tears.
Li Shi panicked when he saw this and shouted, "Grandma, Dad, what's wrong with you?"
"Qingzi is right, he didn't lie to you."
"I can do it."
The old lady wiped her tears, crying and laughing at the same time. Li Sanhe said, "Okay, okay, Dad and your grandma are happy, happy."
"Qingzai, come, I'll toast you a glass."
The old lady also poured a glass of wine: "I'll join you too."
Ye Qing was overwhelmed.
Don’t come to Li Shi’s house for dinner in the future, it will shorten your life.
He drank a glass helplessly, the glass almost reaching the ground, and said, "Making money is not something I can do alone. I just take them out to sea, setting the nets, pulling them up, and collecting the fish. Brother Shi and the others are all busy."
"I can make so much money because of Brother Shi's hard work."
Li Sanhe curled his lips and said, "Qingzi, just stop talking."
"With your incredible luck, you get tens of thousands every time you go out to sea. If you go out and pick up anyone, that person will kneel down and thank you."
"Everyone says you're a relative of the Dragon King and the illegitimate son of Mazu. It's a blessing that Shizi has to follow you."
The old lady also nodded and said, "If that's the case, in two days it will be the Double Ninth Festival on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, which is also the day when Mazu ascends to heaven. You must go to Longwan Island to pay your respects to Mazu."
Ye Qing nodded: "Okay."
The Mazu Temple on Longwan Island is not small. It is very lively during the annual sacrifices due to the common worship from the surrounding islands in the sea. However, the Mazu Temple is becoming more and more dilapidated year by year.
Because it is on Longwan Island, it does not belong to any island or town or village, and no one is willing to repair it.
This year, there was a problem on Longwan Island, which caused panic among the people and there has been no movement so far.
Li Sanhe frowned and said, "I heard from the villagers that Longwan Island is not peaceful."
The old lady said nonchalantly, "It must be that people nowadays are disrespectful to ghosts and gods, and are behaving recklessly at sea, thus angering Mazu."
“Others don’t dare go there for fear of something happening.”
"Qingzai is so good, he must be blessed by Mazu."
Li Sanhe nodded.
Ye Qing was at a loss for words. This was too much praise for him. He muttered to himself, "Goddess Mazu, please don't mind. He didn't mean to take advantage of the popularity."
He deliberately started a conversation, which became more light-hearted, and the meal was quite enjoyable.
The old lady didn't eat much. After she finished eating, she left the table and walked around in the yard. The yard was big enough and empty, so it was more than enough for a walk.
When Ye Qing had almost finished drinking, the old lady started taking her medicine.
One after another.
Seeing the old lady finally finish her medicine, Ye Qing asked, "Do you need to take so many pills every day?"
The old lady sighed: "Yes."
"When people get older, they have more problems and need more medicine."
"I have to take hundreds of dollars worth of medicine every day. I think it's a waste of money. I'd rather save it for building a house later."
Li Shi muttered, "Grandma, I can make money."
The old lady sighed: "No matter how much you earn, you can't afford to be wasted like this by me."
"It's time to replace your dad's wheelchair..."
The old lady kept muttering, and Li Sanhe just listened silently. Li Shi was not good at speaking, and he didn't know how to say what he wanted to say.
Ye Qing had no way to interrupt, but he felt that taking hundreds of pills every day was indeed a bit too much.
He was careful and took photos of the old lady's medical records and each medicine, then sent them all to his senior brother, Director Huang, and asked him to help take a look.
By the time we finished eating and drinking, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.
Ye Qing did not use the energy of the dragon ball to dissolve it. He drank until he was slightly tipsy and felt quite good. He walked towards the orchard cabin in the moonlight.
Along the way, dogs barked constantly.
Ye Qing felt it was noisy, so he released some of the Dragon Ball energy, and the barking of dogs disappeared instantly.
Return to the cabin.
I simply washed myself, changed into pajamas, and fell asleep.
Early the next morning.
Wake up as usual.
Ye Qing took a glance and found that Xiao Huang was not in the wooden house. He had gone out to play wildly again. Dogs in the countryside are still quite happy.
Open the door.
Walk out the door.
It's a beautiful day outside, with a nice breeze and sunshine.
Facing the cool sea breeze, I stretched lazily.
I feel refreshed all over.
After washing up, I took out my cell phone and saw that it was a message from Director Huang. He looked at the old lady's case and found that many of the medicines were unnecessary.
It’s useless to eat it, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t eat it.
There are also many other medicines that are more cost-effective.
Simply put, the town's doctors are ripping people off.
Ye Qing expressed his gratitude, but even if he knew the situation, he didn't know how to solve it unless he asked the old lady to go to the city to see a doctor.
Director Huang also said that he could send the old lady to the hospital and he would receive her.
This is the benefit of having people in the hospital.
After Ye Qing expressed his gratitude again and just put down his phone, Cai Ya and Cai Louzi came and brought breakfast.
While eating breakfast, Ye Qing said that they should pack up and prepare to go out to sea at noon.
Cai Louzi's face lit up with praise. Since Ye Qing was going out to sea, he would have to come to the orchard to work as a security guard.
Although the work seems easy, he still feels like he is in prison.
Xiao Huang came out from somewhere and barked at him.
Cai Louzi resigned himself to his fate and followed Xiao Huang into the orchard. This was their daily job of inspecting the orchard. It was still good that he had a dog to accompany him.
After Ye Qing took Xiao Huang out to sea, he was left alone.
