Chapter 528 Arriving at the Shipyard, the Guard's Doubts

"Why, you want to go too?" Huang Shuqing asked.

"Yes! I was planning to go there by minibus. I just went to deliver fish to Sister Xiulian. She said you should go there today, too."

"Who would take a bus when there is a ride available?" Chen Hui said with a smile.

"Okay! Then wait for me."

"I'll change my clothes and go after breakfast."

After Huang Shuqing finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the house to wash his face and brush his teeth, then he covered his mouth and yawned loudly.

It can be seen that he is really not used to getting up so early.

"Aunt, you should be relieved now, right? You can go back." Chen Hui took out ten yuan and handed it to Chen Huihong.

"No, I brought my own change!"

"Be careful on your way, and come back as soon as you're done."

"I saw that you brought clothes for Wenjing. Are you coming home in the evening?" Chen Huihong asked, pushing Chen Hui's hand away.

"Well! It will probably be late when I get back at night, so I won't go back to bother Grandma Jinhua."

"Anyway, Wenjing has to go to work tomorrow, so it's faster to go there from home."

After Chen Hui finished speaking, he told Chen Huihong to just leave the door open at night and not to wait there.

If it's too late to finish the work, I might just spend the night in the city.

"Got it, I'm going back then!"

Chen Huihong waved her hand, took the water tank and turned away.

Chen Hui saw tea on the table under the eaves, which felt a little warm.

He asked towards the house, "Uncle Shuqing, can I drink the tea outside?"

"The cup next to you is clean. Have a cup of tea first. I'll be right there!"

Huang Shuqing responded loudly while brushing his teeth.

Chen Hui sat down and drank his tea.

Look at the little bees flying back and forth, and one of them flies around Chen Hui several times.

Huang Shuqing planted some climbing flowers in the corner of his yard.

Vines climbed up the inner wall and formed a circle around the top.

These little hanging bees are really suitable for scaring children who want to climb up the wall to pick flowers.

Huang Shuqing finished washing his face and changed into a set of clothes that looked a little more serious.

He came out with a bowl of porridge.

Sitting down opposite Chen Hui, he asked curiously, "What are you doing in the city today?"

"I went to the shipyard to buy a fishing boat." Chen Hui said truthfully.

"Buy a fishing boat? Who should I partner with?"

"Partnership?! I'll buy it myself!"

"Oh wow, you are so young and promising! You can buy your own fishing boat at this age."

Huang Shuqing said this in surprise, then lowered his head and took two mouthfuls of porridge.

"Where is Uncle Shuqing? Are you going to the city for business?" Chen Hui asked.

I didn't guess that he was going out to play because Huang Shuqing was dressed quite seriously today.

When I don't have anything important to do, I dress casually.

"I'm going to do some small things and visit my son and grandson. They didn't come back for the holiday this year." Huang Shuqing said casually.

Seeing that he was unwilling to elaborate, Chen Hui did not ask any more questions.

He picked up the big cup and poured a cup of tea into his own small cup.

"Chen Hui, when you get your fishing boat back, how about taking me out to sea to fish?"

"Call Huang Guangdian when the time comes! He likes fishing, and this is the only way we can get him to go fishing." Huang Shuqing asked, changing the subject.

"Sea fishing! Sure!"

"Bring a charcoal stove and some seasonings, and cook and eat the fish you catch on the boat," said Chen Hui.

"Yeah! That would be fun!"

Huang Shuqing said this expectantly, then lowered his head and ate all the porridge in the bowl.

She took the empty bowl in, and took out her wallet, keys, and the dried fish that Wang Guixiang had made for her son.

He raised his chin towards Chen Hui and strode out the door. Chen Hui raised his head to finish his tea, put down the cup and followed.

The alleys in the county town are not wide enough to park a car, so Huang Shuqing usually parks his car on the street at the entrance of the alley.

Once you get in the car, you're on the street and can go just by stepping on the accelerator.

When passing by the bus station, Chen Hui looked inside.

The bus going from the county to the city was still parked inside, and some people were getting on the bus with large and small bags.

"It's more convenient to buy a car yourself. When to go out depends on other people's arrangements!" Huang Shuqing noticed and said with a smile.

"It's not that easy to buy a car. It will take another two years anyway." Chen Hui responded casually.

"You have to buy it in two years? That's going to take a lot of effort."

"I can drive a car in my twenties. I never thought about it."

"It's good to be young. You really came at a good time!" Huang Shuqing sighed repeatedly.

Chen Hui laughed and chatted with him for a few seconds, and then the two started talking about other things.

We chatted and laughed, and it felt like it didn't take much time to get to the city.

Chen Hui rolled down the car window and looked out with curiosity.

At that time, the difference between the city and the county was not very big.

That is, the houses are built more neatly, the streets are wider, and trees are planted on the roadside.

However, the department store I passed by looked much more imposing than the one in the county town.

"Uncle Shuqing, have you ever been to this department store?" Chen Hui asked.

"I've been there! It's huge, with three floors full of things for sale."

"There are a lot more things than in the county, many branded goods, and many high-end goods are also in stock."

“If you haven’t been to the city, it’s worth a visit.”

Huang Shuqing said this and followed Chen Hui to look outside.

Chen Hui became more interested after hearing this. "Let's go shopping before we go back?"

“I don’t know if it will be in time.”

"I'll take you to the shipyard now, and then I'll go do other things. How are we going to meet?" Huang Shuqing asked.

It's really inconvenient without a mobile phone.

Chen Hui grumbled inwardly and asked about Huang Shuqing's arrangements. He would probably leave at around four or five o'clock.

"Well, let's do this."

"When I finish my work, if I have enough time, I'll go for a walk in the city and visit the department store."

"I'll wait for you at the entrance of the department store around five o'clock. If you come first, come in and find me." Chen Hui suggested.

"can!"

"Be careful. The city is very big. Don't get lost." Huang Shuqing instructed.

Chen Hui blurted out: "How can this be so big? It doesn't look like more than a few streets!"

"You don't look like a country boy coming to the city for the first time. You look like you've been here all day."

Huang Shuqing chatted and laughed as he sent Chen Hui to the gate of the shipyard.

Chen Hui got out of the car and first looked up at the words on the gate.

The security guard stuck his head out, looked at Chen Hui curiously, and asked, "Young man, are you a fisherman?"

"Um?!"

"Uncle, how did you know that?" Chen Hui stepped forward and asked curiously.

"You are really a fisherman?!" The old man looked a little surprised.

Chen Hui looked at him in confusion.

The security guard smiled and explained:

"Engineer Lin told me this morning that if there's a fair-skinned young man in his twenties who's a fisherman and comes to see him, I should bring him in."

"I've been wondering all morning, how can fishermen be so clean and white? They are all tanned!"

"I didn't expect she was so fair-skinned. She looks like someone who makes a living from culture."

After the old man finished speaking, he looked him up and down again.

Still not quite convinced, he asked again, "Young man, what's your name? Let me see if it matches the one registered."
