Chapter 1121 Laughter and Joy

Ye Yaodong stood for a while and did not hear a single word of moral kidnapping. At most, he only felt pity. Then he put his arm on Lin Xiuqing's shoulders and followed the crowd back with satisfaction.

"Let's go, the matter is settled, go home."

"They won't come again, will they?" Lin Xiuqing was a little worried.

"With the officials standing in front of me, I probably won't come."

He didn't dare to be so absolute. He didn't have this idea when he just invited the big blocker over. He really wanted to invite him over for discussion. But before he came, he thought of it. He didn't want to discuss it with others. Who is he? Just let those people solve it themselves.

And it can only be little Kalami, can they discuss it with him? People themselves can’t make the decision, so just kick those people out and leave the trouble to their units.

Those who are capable work harder, but he is not capable anyway. He really does not have that much ability. The official is more suitable to take care of this matter than him.

"In the battle ahead, if you didn't nod, they would look like they could eat you."

"I was regarded as the only life-saving straw before, but now I have pulled out a thicker life-saving stick for them. Didn't they hit the snake on the stick and immediately wrap it around the thicker stick?"

"After all, I have always said that I don't have the ability, and when the two policemen came over just now, I asked Aguang to tell everyone that the public security bureau will find a way to negotiate to get people back from other places, whether it is sentencing or shooting. I have to meet him. Isn’t this better than me not having enough food and salt?”

"No, everyone seems to have seen hope. They were surrounded by them as soon as they came out, and they naturally followed them."

Most ordinary people are not that smart to begin with, and it is easy to follow others' opinions. This hope is also in front of us. Of course, the Public Security Bureau is more trustworthy than him.

Others were also very surprised that such a large group of people were sent away so easily, and they thought they had to go through some trouble.

In fact, it would not be so troublesome if there were no village cadres from each village. Village cadres are also an important link. For those family members, their village cadres can also be trusted by them.

The village cadres played a role in delaying and appeasing people. Psychologically, they also made everyone believe what their own cadres said.

He asked the village cadres to tell the public security bureau to come forward to negotiate. The village cadres would naturally tell the family members that they had asked the public security bureau to negotiate. This had already played a role in stabilizing people. At least no results were obtained in a short period of time. , I won’t come to the village to cause trouble again.

Hope has been placed again, and some light has emerged in my heart, so naturally it is not so easy to cause trouble.

"Anyway, we have gotten rid of this trouble. Go home and eat. You were called out early in the morning and you haven't eaten yet. It's almost noon now."

Ye Yaodong touched his hungry belly and asked, "Have you cooked anything?"

"The old man is at home, he should know how to cook. If not, you can just eat the morning porridge to fill your stomach."

At this time, Secretary Chen patted him on the shoulder from behind and asked, "When are you free to go to the village committee for a chat?"

"Tomorrow, I don't think I have time today. I still have accounts to settle, and the things on the boat haven't been moved out and sorted out yet. It's almost noon now, and I haven't even had breakfast yet."

"There's no rush, you just came back, and something like this happened this morning, so you should do your work at home first, and if you don't have time tomorrow, then the day after tomorrow. Anyway, a bunch of us old guys are here, unlike you, who is so busy. ”

"Okay, I'll go to the village committee after I finish my family affairs."

It's almost lunch time again, and the sun is shining brightly. Everyone is walking and chatting as they head home. This is probably the most talked about topic these days.

Mother Ye was walking beside him and lamented that it was a good thing that everyone in their village had come out, otherwise, who knows what would have happened, even outsiders would come to look for them, let alone people from the village.

"Fortunately, you were lucky and didn't get involved."

Lin Xiuqing nodded in agreement.

"There are so many people who are worse off than everyone else, so there's nothing to say if everyone is caught."

Father Ye turned his head and glared at her, asking which pot he didn't want to open.

Ye Yaodong changed the subject and said: "Dad, after dinner, when the sun is not so bright in the afternoon, ask a few people to move all the debris on the boat. Put away what needs to be washed first. I came back too late yesterday. There was a lot of people on the boat. The piles of things haven’t been dealt with yet, nor have they been moved.”

"Yeah, I know, what do you do with those boats of yours?"

"Don't be in a hurry. Those who want it will naturally come to your door. Leave the one No. 002 there first, don't be in a hurry."

"Are you still coming?"

"Let's take a look. I have to deal with things at home first. I have to go to the city. I just want to take advantage of these few days to take a look at the situation there and see if anyone has called back. Then I can ask and chat. Let’s talk about the situation.”

Anyway, he has earned the money, so he doesn’t have to work hard to earn the rest. It would be a good idea to sweep up the sea urchins later when it is almost over. Let’s see the situation now.

He just came back yesterday, and he still had a lot of things to do, and he didn't have time to care about those people who stayed there.

The couple first walked to the village committee and rode home directly from Aguang's motorcycle parked at the door.

The old lady had been waiting impatiently at home for a long time. She was restless and had to come out and look at the door several times while cooking. She was relieved until she heard the sound of the motorcycle and soon it drove to the door of the house again.

Ye Xiaoxi was the first to rush out, "Dad~"

"We were so intimate when we first came back, and they didn't even want me." Lin Xiuqing said with a smile.

The old lady came out and asked quickly: "How is it? Have those people left?"

"Let's go, it's okay."

"That's good, let's eat first. You went out without eating in the morning. There is porridge, and there is also lunch at noon. Eat early. You haven't eaten at all in the morning..."

After having a simple lunch at noon and struggling to deal with various problems of his mother, he quickly got down from the table and went back to the house to catch up on some more sleep and then get back to work.

Ye's father also ate a few mouthfuls of food in a hurry and then left the table and went back without waiting for Ye's mother, thinking that he would have no face in front of her.

Mother Ye looked at this back, then at that back, and said angrily: "Don't I just want to ask for clarification? One of them doesn't want to say anything, and the other finds me annoying. When I go out, everyone knows everything, and I don't know anything. Others don't know anything about it, and they don't tell me how much money they earn. How about guarding against thieves..."

Lin Xiuqing replied: "I'll give you my salary anyway. It would be nice if you knew how much dad got."

"Are you still saying that you thought I didn't know about hiding my personal money in the pillow case? If I hadn't seen that he had just come back, and I was afraid of getting into trouble with him, I wouldn't have made trouble with him. I would have scolded him to death. He kept giving me Look at it with a face."

"Dongzi didn't know how much money I gave him, but there was more than 100 hidden in the pillow case. I didn't have any before. Last night I was carrying the pillow around and the coins fell out and I discovered it."

Lin Xiuqing didn't say much. Last night, Adong told her that she gave her father 200 yuan to buy things. She didn't expect that his father would be so unable to keep it. He was exposed in a few moments. She didn't know where the private money was hidden before. .

The old lady said: "Then give me the money. If you don't have this money, you won't be able to quarrel. Later, I will tell Dongzi that next time, don't give his father money, but give it to you. Then we will share it with you." Anyway, we have enough to eat and drink, and we don’t have to fight every day.”

Mother Ye rolled her eyes at the old lady, and then looked at Lin Xiuqing, "Did Dongzi say when the accounts will be settled? I don't know how much we will get if we rent out our boat."

"A Dong said that we can wait until after dinner in the evening to do the math. I just came back yesterday and I have a lot of things to do today. I will do the math when I have free time in the evening."

"oh."

Lin Xiuqing also returned to the house after eating. There has been no work in the workshop this month, and all the fishing boats have followed to catch jellyfish, so she has nothing to busy with.

The two sons were on summer vacation and ran around all day. Except for eating and sleeping, they could see no one at other times. Ye Xiaoxi had short legs and couldn't keep up with them, so he could only chase chickens and dogs outside the house. There was an old man. Just watch it, madam.

When she entered the room, Ye Yaodong was still lying there staring at the ceiling in a daze.

"If you go to A Guang's place to settle accounts in the evening, take the cargo manifest left by the agent from him. We will calculate the accounts of each ship first. After all, some ships have followed back, and some have Didn’t come back.”

"good."

"what are you thinking?"

"I'm scheduling time, thinking about sorting out the things on the fishing boats in the afternoon, going to the city tomorrow to settle accounts, check on the land, and visit the leaders, and then go to the village committee the day after tomorrow. Two boats said they would donate to the donation. Okay, and then let’s talk about kelp.”

"oh."

Ye Yaodong moved inside and patted the bed board, "Lie down and chat, how much money does our family have now? Have you not collected the bills from the market this month?"

Lin Xiuqing felt that she had misunderstood him when she saw him talking seriously. She thought he was trying to do something by tapping the bed board and telling her to lie down.

"The account has not been collected, and my father is not worried about handing over a large amount of money to those boys in the workshop, so he said that he will either wait for you to come back, or wait for him to come back sometime and bring it over. You can go over tomorrow and collect it."

She sat down next to him as she spoke, "I did some calculations yesterday. You brought back more than 50,000 yuan. The family originally had more than 130,000 yuan left. Before you left, you spent another 10,000 yuan to buy land in the city. We have a total of more than 170,000 now. If you go to the city to collect the account tomorrow, we will have more than 180,000 on hand. "

"You don't have to wait until tomorrow. If you do the calculations tonight, you'll get more than 180,000 yuan. If you do the calculations tomorrow, you'll get more than 190,000 yuan."

"How much do those fishing boats earn on this trip?"

Yesterday, she didn't even have time to ask. She just packed her things and turned around and he disappeared. When she came back from her work, he was already asleep again.

"About four to five thousand. This trip is short and I came back early."

"That's not bad. I've only been out for a month. How can I make money so easily? It's the flood season. At least I'm back safely and I've made a lot of money. It's not as good as last year, but it's much better than at home."

"Um."

Ye Yaodong pulled her, then turned over and pressed her under him.

"What are you doing? It's broad daylight, and you just said something nice and then you start to move..."

"I fell asleep yesterday, but I haven't finished the task yet."

"What are you doing..."

"Fuck you..."

"I haven't finished speaking yet..."

"You tell me what you want, I'll take the time to answer."

"The door is unlocked..."

Ye Yaodong quickly got up, locked the door, closed the window, and then stripped himself naked.

"You make a curtain tomorrow. Don't always stick newspapers on the windows. It's ugly and doesn't block light. Just make a curtain and pull it open during the day."

"You don't need fabric. Every household uses newspaper to cover their windows. You go out of your way to use fabric to make curtains. You can use it to make two pieces of clothing."

"Why save this money?"

"I don't think it's necessary."

"I think it's necessary. I can sleep more comfortably." He immediately climbed onto the bed and took off the one next to him.

"Comfortable, you don't know. The curtains can't block out the sound."

"I didn't say the curtains were made for this purpose. Didn't I say they block out the light? What are you thinking? You're so serious. You can just keep your voice down..."

Lin Xiuqing pinched him hard.

"Are you looking for a lover outside?"

Ye Yaodong held her hand, straightened up, and showed her shamelessly.

"Psycho, you see, I'm so anxious, and you're still asking this question. If I had eaten my fill outside, would I still be so anxious when I came back?"

Lin Xiuqing blushed and turned her head away, "It's hard to say..."

"I understand, you blame me for falling asleep last night. Aren't you too tired? I coaxed myself to sleep while coaxing the child. Now I've slept all night, I must be in a good state today..."

"You're fooling around in broad daylight..."

"This is to make up for yesterday's regret. Others must have fought three hundred rounds when they came back yesterday, but I fell asleep..."

"I've told you everything..."

"After being a monk for a month, you must be eager to eat meat when you come back. Do you even need to ask? You've been vegetarian for a month, don't you want to eat meat?"

"No."

"Hard-mouthed, you women don't have this thing, no wonder you have the hardest mouth in your body..."

...

After eating the meat, Ye Yaodong felt that his soul had been sublimated. He lay down and savored it for a while, and then fell asleep all of a sudden. Sure enough, this kind of thing can help you sleep.

Lin Xiuqing felt a little guilty, as the couple had been hiding in the room for so long in broad daylight.

She quietly opened the iron plate lock behind the door, leaving the door ajar, and then went back to bed to lie down, planning to take a nap. After all, she had been here for so long, so she didn't mind staying longer, as the child was being watched by the old lady.

Until she was tired and sleepy from playing, she shouted that she wanted to find Lin Xiuqing, and the old lady coaxed her for a long time before taking the child to sleep in her own room.

Ye Yaodong slept until more than 3 o'clock, and then sat at the door to enjoy the cool until 4 o'clock. When he saw that it was not so hot, he got up to find his father, and by the way, he went to ask the boatman to work on the boat together. It was convenient for them to move back and forth because they had a boat at home.

Coincidentally, while they were carrying things there, A Guang and his father also brought a group of people over, and they seemed to be planning to sort out the sundries on the boat.

They greeted each other and went about their own business, but they also agreed to go to his house to settle accounts after moving the things on the boat and having dinner.

Ye Yaodong moved down all the baskets, bamboo flats, and a lot of other things, including food.

The food was sent directly back to his home, and the sundries were moved to the workshop, where the boatmen cleaned them and put them in the corner to dry. They would probably go out to sea again in a few days, and these things would be useful again.

"These longline fishing rods have only been used three times, and now they are a mess and have not been sorted out. Otherwise, ask someone to sort them out and put them in the corner. If they are useful next time, take them out to sea again."

Ye Yaodong looked at the pile of messy lines and baskets in the corner where his father pointed, and he didn't care. Anyway, the cost was earned back.

"Then let everyone wash these things and help to sort them out. It's quick to wash them anyway."

"A Dong, if you drive the newly bought boats back from the factory, can you rent me one? Don't worry, I'll do it for you. I'll just rent one to my sons so that they can have something to do."

One boatman spoke up, and the other boatmen followed suit, promising to follow him and rent one to their own sons.

Ye Yaodong thought that this was not impossible. If the boat was rented to their sons, they would work harder to prevent him from regretting it. After all, the whole family relied on him to make money.

And those younger brothers didn't mention anything except Chen Shi. After all, their families were from other villages nearby, and they didn't know how to sail or drive a boat. Maybe it was because he had just returned, so they didn't know much.

"That's fine, but wait until I finish repainting the boat and come back. Anyway, I'll make a note of it first, and I won't respond to others."

At noon, when he was sitting at the door to enjoy the cool air, two people came to buy his small wooden boat. They were all working for him in Zhejiang Province. When they heard that he gave others a 10% discount and gave them an 80% discount, they immediately came in a hurry, thinking that they had picked up a great bargain.

These people who followed him to run boats were more ambitious.

However, he also thought that Wang Guangliang had asked before. Now that he was not here, he planned to ask again later. Anyway, he would just buy people's hearts, but he had to knock them when he should.

After assigning the work to others, there were people watching over there, and he went home directly.

"Come down, you guys come down..."

As soon as he entered the door, his eyes widened. Ye Xiaoxi was standing in the yard, with several little puppies hanging on her body, three hanging on her two feet, one bitten on the hem of her clothes, and another in her hand. She was grabbing the dog's scalp and trying to drop it on the ground, her face full of anger.

"Get down, you are so annoying..."

"Dad, help me... Look..."

"Atai doesn't help me, she just looks and laughs..."

"How annoying, I have to go and drive the ducks away..."

Ye Yaodong watched her frantically trying to pull the puppies off her body, and he also smiled, "Why are they climbing on you? Why are there only these few? Aren't there two litters of puppies?"

"I gave them to my sister... They all hang on me... So annoying... Help me..."

As soon as she pulled one off, the other immediately ran to bite her trouser leg.

Although it was summer, Lin Xiuqing made her wear long pants to prevent her from being bitten by mosquitoes and falling down while running around.

But even so, Ye Yaodong saw last night that there was no good meat on her legs, especially her knees, which were either blue or purple, or red, or had broken skin, or had scars.

He went forward to take the dogs off her one by one and threw them next to the other dogs, so that the little puppies did not immediately bite her trouser legs.

"You look very busy? Are you going to drive the ducks now?"

"Yes, the sun has gone home, and the ducks have to go home to eat and sleep, and there are also a few chickens..."

This name from the child...

"That's really busy, and what about Xiao Baibai?"

"No, it's annoying, not Xiao Baibai, it's Da Baibai."

"Then kill it and eat the meat tomorrow? Just to supplement your father?"

"No!" Ye Xiaoxi immediately widened his eyes and spread his hands, as if the big goose was behind him.

"Don't you hate it? I'll help you eat it."

"No, I can't eat it even if I hate it."

The old lady laughed and said, "Wait a minute, when she drives the chickens and ducks back to the cage, you take her away, and I'll secretly catch two for you, just in time to stew them for you to nourish you in the evening."

Ye Xiaoxi shouted even louder, "No!"

"Okay, okay, no, no."

"Dad, let's go to eat at my brother's house!"

"Haha, it's okay at my brother's house, right?"

"Well, I'll take you there."

Ye Xiaoxi stopped driving the ducks, and hurriedly pulled Ye Yaodong to take him to the next door to eat.

It just so happened that the eldest and second sister-in-law Ye next door also stewed chickens and ducks in the evening. They drove the chickens and ducks back to the cage early, and then caught them and stewed them. Only Ye Xiaoxi in their family watched them closely, so the old lady couldn't find a chance to attack.

Ye Xiaoxi pulled Ye Yaodong and walked towards Ye Yaohua's house, because she happened to see Ye Yaohua sitting at the door smoking a hookah.

"Dad, can I eat some chicken for my dad..."

Ye Yaodong was petrified instantly...

Ye Yaohua was also choked by a puff of smoke, and he coughed violently, his face turned red, and his eyes were wide open.

"Dad, you stingy guy, I'll go to mom to ask..."

"Come back!!"

Ye Yaodong picked her up and said to his second brother with an embarrassed face: "She was guarding the chickens and ducks she raised. She smelled that you guys were stewing, so she wanted to pull me over to get a bowl. Children talk nonsense like this."

Ye Yaohua was still coughing violently there, just nodding continuously. He heard it all while sitting at the door. There was no need to explain, but he couldn't speak now.

Ye Yaodong hurriedly took the girl home.

When he got home, he said righteously: "Chickens are chickens, you can't call them little chickens."

"Why?"

"Because they are different."

"Why are they different?"

"Because chickens refer to the chickens you raise. When brother was taking a bath, did you also see brother's little chickens?"

Ye Xiaoxi nodded with her eyes wide open.

Lin Xiuqing was cooking in the house. She was a little surprised and a little amused when she heard the conversation between the father and daughter. She pricked up her ears to listen.

"Yes, so you can't say anything that will cause misunderstanding."

"Why misunderstanding?"

"One more word, one less word, it's different. And now that you're grown up, don't always say reduplicated words. A chick is a chick, and a duck is a duck."

"Why?"

Ye Yaodong looked at the innocent eyes and took a deep breath, "Because adults don't say reduplicated words..."

"Why? Why don't adults... say reduplicated words?"

"There aren't so many whys!"

"But my mother always said to beat you to death..."

Lin Xiuqing couldn't hold it in anymore and laughed, "Hahaha..."

Ye Yaodong also broke down and laughed and choked, cursing while laughing: "Damn... why are there so many whys..."

"You'll be beaten to death if you say dirty words!"

The couple laughed even louder.

"Hmph, I'm going to drive the ducks..."

Ye Xiaoxi saw that both of them were looking at her and laughing, so she ignored them, put her hands on her hips, and immediately ran to the door.

Ye Yaodong looked at her back and smiled, "No wonder you are so tanned now, the work is quite heavy."

"Several children ran away, she couldn't keep up, so she had to stay at home alone, and sometimes she ran to other people's houses nearby to play. Now it's time to drive the ducks back. You go and watch, the tide is rising."

"Okay."

Ye Xiaoxi ran towards the group of ducks on the beach with a branch in her hand. The ducks were scared by her and ran the fastest. She ran and shouted, "Don't run, go home..."

The old lady walked several steps quickly before catching her, and grabbed her collar to prevent her from rushing out and scattering the ducks.

"Slow down, you can't do this..."

"Run away..."

"Go and drive them back..."

The old and the young held hands, and it was unknown who was holding who. Anyway, each holding a branch, with a particularly bright smile on their faces, slowly drove the small group of ducks.

"Grandma, please walk faster..."

"Walk slowly, or you'll fall..."

Ye Yaodong leaned against the gate and watched a group of ducks swaying and running into the yard in a panic.

Ye Xiaoxi dropped the branch in his hand as soon as he came in, and sat on his instep, "Oh, I'm so tired."

"Children should not sigh."

The old lady smiled and picked up the branch she had thrown on the ground and put it in the corner, then closed the duck cages first to prevent them from running out again.

Ye Yaodong picked her up, "You haven't finished your work yet, and the chickens haven't come back yet."

"Okay!"

She immediately stood up and rushed out again.

The old lady shouted: "Knock on the broken bowl, sprinkle a handful of rice bran, and she will come back."

"Let her run and exercise, she is too fat."

"Nonsense, this is strong, children should grow like this, Xiaoyu is like bean sprouts, it is not good, easy to get sick."

Ye Yaodong shrugged, did not refute, still leaning there watching her running happily in the open space at the door.

Just seeing a few children nearby, she ran with them and forgot to drive the chickens back to the coop.

"Hey, hey, hey, where are you going, it's time to eat, and you're still running?"

Ye Xiaoxi ran with the other children without looking back, and Ye Yaodong had to catch her back.

The old lady shouted behind her: "Don't come back, don't come back, let me catch a chicken first..."

He had no choice but to follow Ye Xiaoxi to see what she was playing with those children.

When Lin Xiuqing shouted at the door for dinner, he took the child home, but when he went back, he had a lot more jewelry made of sweet potato leaves on him.

Two strings of earrings hung on his ears, and on his neck was a limited edition sweet potato leaf necklace made by Ye Xiaoxi for him, and on his forehead was a headband.

But it kept falling off, and Ye Xiaoxi raised his hand high to fix it on his forehead.

"Don't fall off... Dad, don't move..."

Lin Xiuqing seemed to be unable to help laughing, "What is this?"

"My daughter made it for me, and she insisted on putting it on me."

Ye Yaodong shook the sweet potato vines on both sides of his ears helplessly.

Ye Xiaoxi giggled, "It looks good."

The old lady was also happy, "Girls like to play with these."

Haha, I adjust my work and rest schedule to adjust my sleep time, not the update time.

00:01 is the earliest update time of the day. I wrote it in advance and set it there. If you want to read it during the day, I can set it to the next morning.

I have indeed adjusted my work and rest schedule. I no longer stay up late before going to bed. I should be updating at 00:01 for the next period of time.
