As soon as the giant salvage ship sailed into the fjord waters, it attracted the attention of passing ships.
Even the tiger cubs, Diandian, and the big three-headed shellfish that were playing nearby were all floating on the sea far away, looking in the direction of the salvage ship.
In September, although the number of tourists on the island is far less than during the peak summer season, it is not without them. There are young couples walking along the coastline, and there are large families waiting to watch whale sharks and killer whales dancing in the sea. At first sight, such a large ship
When the boat docked at the first pier, everyone was very curious. Those who were close to the pier simply ran over to join in the fun, and those who were far away kept looking in this direction.
When I found out that the owner of the boat was actually the owner of the island, I felt envious and at the same time felt it was logical.
"Director Lu has been out for several days. Did he get any business? I also said that no one can afford to hire them for such a big ship."
"I didn't pick it up myself. It seems that some unit from a neighboring province came to hire it. It was said that a typhoon capsized a large ship full of cargo and sank into the sea. Only Director Lu's boat could salvage it."
"I heard that the salvage fee is very expensive. One salvage can cost a small fishing boat like ours dozens of trips to sea."
"The investment cost is also high. Who can afford such a big ship without any wealth?"
"The Lu family is rich."
"Not only the Lu family, but Teacher Xu herself is very rich. I heard that she owns several stores on Antique Street, and she can earn a lot from just rent every month."
"Lao Xu's daughter is really capable! She runs a school on the island and helps the town make the tourist attractions so good. She is no worse than her son."
"No, no son is as capable as her."
"Thanks to Old Xu's daughter, our life now is in the sky and on the earth compared to before."
"No, it's time to be content. Without Teacher Xu, our place would still be a poor little fishing village."
Under the setting sun, the fishermen rocked their boats and oars, following the giant salvage boat, and returned home one after another.
With the Lu family's big ship riding the wind and waves ahead, I felt much more at ease.
Lu Chixiao was on the salvage boat, so naturally he couldn't hear the passing fishermen's comments about his family.
He skillfully controlled the steering wheel and drove the "Big Mac" steadily into the mouth of Dawan and parked it at the pier dedicated to large cargo ships with relatively deep water levels.
"Dad!" Little Baozi ran faster than Xu Suizhu. When he arrived at the dock, he happened to see the deck of the salvage ship being lowered slowly. He simply stepped on the deck and rushed up like a small cannonball, "Dad, you are back! I
Miss you all the time!"
Lu Chixiao rubbed his head and said clearly: "Remember the gift I brought you?"
"Hehe!" Little Baozi looked up at him and grinned, "Then did you bring it? Uncle Fu said, the place you went to has a snack called pineapple cake, which is very delicious, and there is also ginger duck, which is better than
Is it true that everything my aunt cooks is delicious? Dad, have you tried it? After you taste it, have you brought some for me...and mom?"
How can Lu Chixiao not understand his son's temperament? He is a real snack foodie.
He immediately raised the corner of his mouth to tease him, and took out a flattened pineapple cake from his pocket that he couldn't remember when he put it in. "Here, I still have a little gift. Take it and eat it!"
Little Baozi stared at such a small piece of pineapple cake, not knowing whether to be happy or disappointed.
He was happy that his father really brought him a pineapple cake that was said to be very delicious. But he was disappointed that it was too little. How could he share such a small piece well? He wanted to share it with many people.
I was indescribable embarrassment and entanglement for a while.
"Xiao Yu, do you only want your father and not me?" Qi Hui poked his head out from behind Lu Chixiao and shook the tin box in his hand as he spoke, "Thankfully, I picked one for you that you will definitely like.
Gift."
"Master!" Little Baozi immediately beamed.
He knew the words on the tin box: pineapple cake!
With such a big box of pineapple cakes, there is no need to cut it with a knife, and both mom and friends can eat a whole piece.
"That's it!"
Lu Chixiao flicked his son's brain angrily.
Little Baozi rubbed his forehead and then made a face at him: "Dad, Uncle Fu guessed you. He said you would not buy local specialties."
Lu Chixiao raised his eyebrows.
Then, the sailors began to carry things down one after another. Boxes were full of thank-you gifts from Director Chen and the shipwreck organizer and shipper.
One of the boxes was stacked with the iron-wrapped pineapple cakes that Qi Hui was holding in his hand. It was a century-old brand and sold in dozens of boxes in department stores.
In fact, Lu Chixiao had already given part of it to the employees of the ship as welfare. Unfortunately, the customer was too polite and gave away too much. Even though he distributed part of it as welfare, there were still several large boxes left.
Just take it home and let the child's mother take care of it. Whether it's food or favors, it's up to her.
Little Baozi held a box of pineapple cakes and jumped home like a treasure. He found that the coffee table and sofa in the living room were all filled with tin boxes like this. He couldn't help but be dumbfounded: "..."
Look at the tin box in your arms, and then look at the other tin boxes, that's right! The patterns and words on the boxes are exactly the same, they are all pineapple cakes... so many pineapple cakes!
The little bun swallowed and tugged at the hem of his mother's clothes: "Mom, these..."
"Oh, your dad did me a big favor, he sent it as a gift. In addition to pineapple cakes, there are also many other specialties, such as water chestnut cakes, pork breasts, amphioxus, Tieguanyin... Huh? Why is there even rice?"
Little Baozi was stunned: "..."
Xu Suizhu was bending down to tidy up and didn't notice her son's expression.
Baozi's father was taking a shower upstairs, and she took the opportunity to divide the gifts into piles.
Except for rice, tobacco and wine, the rest are famous local pastries and snacks, which have a short shelf life. Let several families share them after the meal.
After finishing tidying up, he straightened up while rubbing his slightly sore waist after bending for a long time. Seeing his son standing there blankly, this was a rare expression. He couldn't help but smile: "Xiaoyu? Why are you so dazed? I didn't ask you to shout.
Grandpa, Grandma Lian? Just call me and go directly to the banquet hall."
"Oh, then I'm going." Little Baozi seemed to have just realized what he was doing. He ran a few steps towards the door, then turned his head and looked at the gifts piled up in the living room. His heart was filled with joy: Oh wow! So many delicious things.
Yes! I'm going to tell Uncle Fu that Dad is not a tough guy at all!
After Lu Chixiao took a shower, he came downstairs in casual clothes. His hair was not dry enough and the ends of it were still dripping with water.
Xu Suizhu glanced at him with watery eyes, went to the bathroom and brought out a dry towel, and motioned for him to sit down: "You also said that I don't dry my hair, aren't you the same?"
Huh? Why do these words sound so familiar... Oh, this is the tone Aunt Lian used when complaining about her father.
She paused for a moment, and couldn't help but feel amused: Could it be that she and he had entered the mode of an old married couple?
