Chapter 692 Fourth Uncle (1/2)

"Dad, the temple eunuch is here to see you." Little Tutu yelled, and Erbaiwu followed suit.

The temple keeper was quite familiar with the child, Little Tutu. Last year, Li Duoyu was the boss, and this kid had been making a lot of trouble in the Tianhou Temple, and he was always worried.

But he was good at everything, but he was called the temple eunuch, which made him quite uncomfortable.

He knew very well that Little Tutu was just a child, and he didn't really call him "eunuch", but this name was really unpleasant.

Speaking of which, there really was an eunuch on Dandan Island back then. During the great escape, it was said that a eunuch who followed Cixi fled to their side.

When they arrived at Dandan Island, they had already run out of money, but in order to survive on the island, they finally provided a secret recipe that was "very effective after eating".

After so many years of turmoil, it is unknown who has this secret recipe.

Hearing the sound, Li Duoyu came out of the kitchen, still wearing Zhou Xiaoying's apron, holding a big kitchen knife in his right hand, and his hands were bloody.

After seeing the temple keeper, Li Duoyu was surprised and said, "Shanbo, how come you have time to go down the mountain?"

For the temple keeper, coming down from the Tianhou Palace is really not much different from "going down the mountain". If there is no major event, he can stay at the Tianhou Palace for at least half a year.

Anyway, every time the villagers worship, they will leave some tributes for him to eat. On the contrary, he is the one who does not have to worry about food and clothing in the village.

After seeing the old man with a suitcase next to the temple keeper, Li Duoyu was slightly stunned. When he saw him for the first time, he always felt that he looked familiar.

"Shanbo, who is this?"

To be honest, the temple keeper was really scared by Li Duoyu's dress. His hands were all bloody and he was holding a big kitchen knife.

This is normal for fishermen. Nine out of ten times he is killing fish, but it is indeed inappropriate to meet guests like this.

"Duoyu, go wash your hands first, don't scare the guests."

Li Duoyu finally reacted and laughed, "Sorry, I was just killing a big fish and my hands are all dirty."

Li Duoyu was indeed killing a big fish. His eldest cousin caught a big black croaker weighing more than 40 kilograms.

This kind of fish is mainly used to extract fish glue. Most of the big fish glue in the previous life came from this kind of fish.

When fish glue was not extracted, fish of this size could be sold at 70 to 80 kilograms, but after extracting fish glue, no one wanted it even at 1 kilogram and 8 yuan.

But fish glue is not popular yet, and only Li Duoyu is collecting it in the whole town.

Li Duoyu went to the kitchen to put down the knife and then washed his hands. Unless there was something important, Shanbo rarely went down the mountain. At his age, except for daily food and clothing, he could be said to have no desires.

Today, he took the initiative to bring a guest to him, which made Li Duoyu really curious.

After arriving at the courtyard, Xiao Tutu took credit and said, "Dad, just now this old man was stopped by Dahei, and I helped him run away."

Li Duoyu touched his head and said, "Not bad, you are getting better and better."

After inviting people in, Li Duoyu did not rush to ask about the identity of the old man, but made tea for them.

"Wait a moment, I'll go boil some water."

After the old man sat down, he immediately opened the suitcase and took out a round tea box: "I have high mountain tea here, do you want to try it?"

Hearing about high mountain tea, Li Duoyu was a little surprised, and then asked, "High mountain tea from overseas provinces?"

The old man was also very surprised. When he heard about high mountain tea, he said, "Do you know this kind of tea?"

"Someone gave me some. This tea is very similar to the Tieguanyin in our province. It tastes good."

"Is that so."

After the temple keeper sat down, he asked, "Duoyu, is your father at home?"

"He is not at home now. At the kelp field, he might not come back until later. "

The temple keeper looked at Li Hanmin. Although only the younger generation was there, he couldn't help but say: "Forget it, I'll tell you straight, the person in front of you is your fourth uncle."

"Ah! !"

Although it felt a bit that, Li Duoyu was still shocked after this sentence came out: "Shanbo, you are not kidding, right?"

"When have I ever joked?" The temple keeper said seriously: "The person next to me is your fourth uncle Li Hanwen."

Li Duoyu laughed out loud. Although it was brought by Shanbo, he didn't dare to recognize him casually.

The main reason was that there was really a misunderstanding before. I don't know if it was the eldest uncle or the third uncle who leaked it. Last year, two so-called "fourth uncles" really took the initiative to come to the door.

If you have to say, they are relatives of their family, and they still want to stay in Dandan Island. Fortunately, there is still the second uncle, so there is no more cheap relative.

It can only be said that it would be better if Li Duoyu was not famous. After becoming famous and rich, all kinds of monsters and ghosts really came to the door.

In addition to the fake fourth uncle, there are also aunts and so on. In short, all kinds of distant relatives come to visit him, making him very annoyed.

But to be honest, the man in front of him looks a bit like the second uncle, so this time it might be real.

But what Li Duoyu didn't expect was that the old man in front of him carefully took out a black and white photo from the suitcase.

Li Duoyu took it and looked at it carefully. The photo was worn away all around, leaving only the middle part, and there were creases.

This is an old group photo, and in the middle of the photo, there is a middle-aged and elderly man wearing a hat and braids, and next to him stands a typical Republic of China woman.

There were five young people standing around, three boys and two girls, although the pixels of the photo were very blurry.

But the one in the middle is wearing exactly the same hat as the one in the ancestral hall, and even his expression is very similar.

The old man pointed to the youngest boy and said, "I don't know if you have this photo, but the youngest one here is me."

Li Duoyu looked at the people in the photo, and one of them really looked like his second uncle.

Li Duoyu had heard something about this fourth uncle. Back then, there were pirates near Dandan Island.

Fishing boats are robbed as soon as they go out to sea, and fishermen are forced to huddle on the island. They can only grow some sweet potatoes and pick up some clams, barnacles, oysters, and abalone to eat.

But there was no oil or water in that thing, so there was no food at all. The villagers on the island complained of hunger every day. Later, the war became more and more severe.

Someone went to their island to distribute leaflets, with the slogan that if they went to fight, they would have food to eat and receive silver dollars.

I was so hungry that I didn't know how cruel war was. Many young people without families joined without hesitation.

The youngest seems to be eleven or twelve years old. In short, he went to the island to recruit soldiers several times and took away many people on the island.

The fourth uncle also left during one of the recruitments. In fact, the grandpa would be rich.

But their family came here as refugees. In this troubled world, even if they had silver coins or small yellow croakers in their hands, they would not dare to use them at all.

If you use it well, you can really have enough to eat. If you use it poorly, it will be a disaster.

Miao Zhu also said: "Duoyu, if you are not in a hurry, you can wait for your second uncle to come back. This person in front of you is really your fourth uncle, not a fake."

Li Duoyu scratched his head: "Hello, fourth uncle."

Not long after, Li Duoyu used the big landline phone of his second brother at home. To be honest, this thing was quite easy to use.

Now the second brother's handheld end is placed on Lao Li.

"Dad, please come back first. It seems that my fourth uncle is really back this time. He has a photo of my great-grandfather in his hand."

Lao Li, who was working on the kelp field, frowned and cursed after hearing this.

"When I had no money, I didn't have any relatives. Now that I have money, everyone wants to be their relative."

Lao Li drove the boat back, and when the two of them stood together, they found that they looked a bit alike. The fourth uncle seemed to be younger than his father.

When he saw the photo, Lao Li's hands were shaking because he had seen this photo before when he was a child.

But due to family separation and various turmoils, this group photo was lost. The person in the middle of the photo was indeed his grandfather.

"Really Fourth Uncle?"

Miao Zhu said speechlessly: "You don't need to look at me to know that you two still look very similar, especially your nose and ears."

The old man looked at the middle-aged man in front of him who looked very similar to himself, and couldn't help but ask: "Are you Nian Tian?"

"No, I am Zhengtian."

The old man scratched his head and said, "It's the third child. You seemed to have just been born not long after I left, so you probably have no impression of me."

When he heard about the third child, Lao Li was obviously silent. He heard from his father that he was really not the second child, but the third child.

Back then, he had a second brother, but he died not long after he was born. No one mentioned this later, so he was the second oldest brother.

If you even knew about this, there was no way it could be false. Old Li looked at Li Duoyu with disgust: "The tea has gone cold, why don't you boil the water quickly? This is your fourth uncle."

Li Duoyu smiled awkwardly. Even though he was very good now, he still got scolded from time to time in Lao Li's place.

"By the way, have your uncle and second uncle just gone to sea? Is there any way to contact them? If so, ask them to come back quickly, otherwise it will take several months to go out."

Li Duoyu called the radio station directly: "Hello. This is Li Duoyu from Dandan Island. Can you please call Minrongyu 056 on your channel and tell them that the fourth uncle has returned from overseas provinces and ask them to hurry up? Time has come back.”

After learning the news that day, the Li family members who were still on the island gathered together, including relatives from the second uncle's side.

There were also many melon-eaters who came to watch: "Maybe they are fake relatives again this time."

"No, there are even photos this time. They should be real, and they look so similar. At first glance, they belong to their Li family."

Lao Mi was also shocked when he heard the news. He didn't expect that he was a real relative this time. The person who asked him before was really a relative of Li Duoyu.

And it was only then that he found out that Li Duoyu's second uncle was called Li Hanlin. A heavy smoker had such a big name. No wonder he was never embarrassed to tell others his name.

A lot of people gathered at Li Duoyu's house that night. When Li Haoran saw the old man, he was so surprised that his chin turned into three layers.

It turned out that the old man carrying the suitcase on the boat was really a relative of his family. No wonder he felt familiar and looked a bit like his grandpa.

Everyone moved chairs and listened to the old man telling what happened that year.

The fourth uncle said slowly: "When I left, the political genius had just been born, and at that time there was a famine on the island, and the sea was full of pirates.

The fourth uncle said that he didn't know what kind of army he was joining at that time. He only knew that he had to run with him every day just for a bite of food.

In the end, it was discovered that the Japanese did not fight much, and they were all fighting against their own people. Many people in the team ended up very miserable after they escaped and were caught.

Later, I was caught on a ship in a daze, and then I was locked up in a place. I lived in a house with a bamboo fence with several people I didn't know. I lived there for many years. Finally I found a job and lived a stable life. Life. "

After listening to the story of the fourth uncle, everyone couldn't help but feel a little sad. They felt that the journey along the way was more difficult than staying on the island.

Li Duoyu asked: "Fourth uncle, you have been in overseas provinces for so many years, have you found an uncle for us?"

After all, Shitou's grandfather was also forced to go to an overseas province, but he had already reorganized his family there in order to make a living.

When the fourth uncle left, he was originally a single man. The probability of starting a family there was higher, and he also had the excellent genes of the old Li family. He was quite handsome and must be liked by many girls.

Seeing Li Duoyu ask about this, the old man was stunned for a while, and then said: "No, I am just like a bachelor."

"ah!"

Everyone present was a little stunned, and Li Haoran was even more surprised and said: "Grandpa, you have been living alone these years."

The old man smiled awkwardly and said: "There is no way, the conditions are too bad, I can only live alone."

Li Duoyu glanced at his fourth uncle. Judging from his lonely expression, it was probably not as simple as he said.

Since the fourth uncle didn't want to say anything, Li Duoyu didn't bother to ask.

And that night, although this relative who had returned from an overseas province didn't have much money, he still sent red envelopes to many people present. Each envelope was worth at least 100 yuan in foreign exchange, even to children.

In fact, his salary is really not high, and the older he gets, the less he earns. All the money he has saved over the years has been brought back.

Because the overseas provinces are also promoting all day long, and the mainland is eating grass roots every day, starving every day, how to lag behind, etc.

Li Hanmin originally thought that if his relatives were not doing well, he would give all his money to them and return to overseas provinces to continue making money.

Anyway, for him, who has no children, keeping the money is of little use. He might as well help his relatives on the mainland.

But when he actually came to Dandan Island, he found that the propaganda from the overseas provinces was really exaggerated, and life here on the mainland was still okay.

On the dining table, there are lobsters, abalone, and even shark's fins, as well as braised pig's trotters, boiled prawns, and grilled eels, which would be very luxurious ingredients in overseas provinces, but here on Tantan Island , as if you don’t need money.

Li Hanmin was also very happy to see his relatives living so well.

Almost two days later.

The uncle who received the news from the radio came back in a fishing boat. When the second uncle saw the fourth uncle, his eyes turned red on the spot.

The two hugged each other tightly.

Next, under the leadership of the second uncle, the fourth uncle worshiped his parents and brothers on the northern slope of Dandan Island.

As for Li Sande, he followed his fourth uncle after he got off the boat, and kept talking about red envelopes and the like.

But the embarrassing thing is that because there were more people that night, the fourth uncle had already divided the money, so he did not give his share separately.

This made Li Sande depressed for a long time. Last time his overseas Chinese relatives from Nanyang came back, he just didn't receive it.

This time when his fourth uncle from overseas province came back, he still didn't receive it. He was so angry that he ate a pound of prawns at Li Duoyu's house that night to relieve his anger! As the two parties got to know each other, this fourth uncle from an overseas province was really frightened by his relatives on the mainland.

It turns out that the Minlong is Li Duoyu, and the director Li mentioned by the villagers is also him.

Not long after, he was taken to visit Li Duoyu's Minlong Company. The island's eel factory, shrimp ponds, four thousand acres of kelp fields, aquatic product processing plants, and the Qixing Bay Breeding Base. The fourth uncle's face was full of joy and joy. With a shocked expression, he really didn't expect that his relatives on the mainland would be so promising.

At this moment, he was relieved!

After taking his fourth uncle to visit, Li Duoyu suddenly said: "Fourth uncle, if you haven't married yet, you might as well not go back and live on the island."

Hearing this, the old man was silent for a long time: "I'm over there, I still have some things to pack."

Li Duoyu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said playfully: "Fourth uncle, you must have been as handsome as me when you were young. Do you have some emotional debt that you haven't dealt with well?"

Li Hanmin glanced at him sideways.

"What are you thinking? When I was young, I was much more handsome than you."

"Hahaha." (End of chapter)
