Chapter 1178 Signature and Seal

Chen Wei wanted to leave immediately.

Ye Yaodong didn't want to stop it at first. Anyway, the conversation at the door was heard by women near the door, and it should be spread tomorrow.

He really shot himself in the foot.

If we want to regain face from him, it's best if we can succeed. If we can't succeed, it can also be said that he refused and refused to cooperate, which is why the village can't set up a factory and the villagers can't take advantage of it. The blame is put on him.

It's better now, everyone knows that he can pay 50,000 yuan.

hehe……

However, the people who had just settled the accounts at Ye Yaodong's house also came out. Everyone heard their conversation and gathered around happily.

"Yes, there is nothing you can't do with money. It's rare that Chen Wei has such a heart. He can set up any factory with 50,000 yuan."

"Our small village doesn't have that much land. Can we build a smaller one and take our time?"

"It turns out that I didn't think about setting up a factory. Everyone is really spreading rumors. Those aunts and wives are talking nonsense all day long..."

Chen Wei felt like he couldn't speak clearly now.

"It's too late today. It's already dark. Let's talk tomorrow. Dongzi and I haven't discussed it yet."

Ye Yaodong smiled and said, "That's true. It's getting dark now. Let's go to the village committee tomorrow to have a chat and see what you can do with your 50,000 yuan investment."

He nodded casually and left quickly.

Sister-in-law Ye came over in surprise and asked: "Can he really spend 50,000 yuan to set up a factory in the village? Has it been rumored recently?"

Lin Xiuqing doubted: "Real or fake? Why do I not believe it so much?"

Ye Yaodong said with a smile on his face, "I'll know tomorrow morning."

"Yes, if I can go to the village committee to meet people tomorrow morning, it will really show that they can afford this money."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk... Now that you have money, no wonder you can raise a child outside and find a mistress in the village..."

After the people around them got the first-hand news, they immediately became excited.

After Ye Yaodong sent everyone else away, he also went back to the house.

Lin Xiuqing didn't even have time to put away the bills in the house before she came out to take a look. Fortunately, the calculator was on top and it didn't fly everywhere.

He conveniently helped tidy it up.

Lin Xiuqing followed him in and asked: "This man is so shameless. He wants you to steal his master and then join forces with him. Who cares about his 5,000 yuan? We can just invest it with anyone else. I invested 50,000 yuan.”

"Aren't you picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons? Investing 50,000 yuan in someone else's money, and then partnering with him for 5,000 yuan just to steal his skills? Why are you so shameless?"

Ye Yaodong also sneered, "Don't worry about him, who do you think is a fool? I want to borrow a chicken to lay eggs. I just dug a hole for him. I guess he should run away at night."

"You think he doesn't have fifty thousand dollars?"

"I don't know. From the look on his face just now, he shouldn't have it. Even if he had it, how could he use all his wealth to build a factory to benefit the village? It's not a guaranteed profit without loss? Let's take 50,000 It hurts so much.”

"It's true, money is so easy to make. How long did it take us to earn 50,000 yuan in the first place, and he can earn 50,000 yuan in just one year? Anyway, I don't believe he can get it."

He thought so too.

"You go to sea as usual at night, right?"

"Well, there's nothing important that warrants me rescheduling, so of course I'll go as usual."

"Then I'll tell you when you come back in a few days. It won't take more than one night. If he can come up with 50,000 yuan, the news will spread throughout the village. The village committee should come to visit again tomorrow morning."

Ye Yaodong smiled, "Are you quite gossipy?"

No wonder they asked him if he was going to sea as usual.

"This idea has hit our home, shouldn't I pay more attention?"

"Okay, listen more and tell me when I come back."

"good."

Ye Yaodong originally planned to rest for two days and then go to sea immediately. However, just an hour after sailing out with his father at night, he felt that there was a strong wind and the waves in the outer sea were a bit strong.

The cold wind is already strong in winter, but it may only feel colder on land. The wind is still bearable, but the branches are swaying erratically, around level 4 or 5.

But the feeling at sea is completely different. As the saying goes, there is no wind but three feet of waves.

The sea is unobstructed, and the wind at this level is enough to cause rough waves on the sea, and the fishing boats will be swaying in the waves.

Nowadays, the rules and regulations are incomplete. If you want to go to sea in windy and rainy weather, no one will control you, as long as you are not afraid of death.

But of course they were afraid of death. When they first drove out to sea, the wind and waves were acceptable, but when they drove farther, they felt that the wind and waves were too strong.

After discussion, with safety first, we headed back home with the Harvest.

In the future, the rules and regulations have been improved, and the maritime department has clear regulations for fishing boats going out to sea on windy days.

Once the wind level exceeds level five, some small motorized fishing boats and wooden sail fishing boats are already prohibited from going to sea.

In case of strong winds above level 6, fishing boats with less than 60 horsepower are strictly prohibited from going to sea.

When the wind level exceeds level seven, fishing boats with less than 400 horsepower are not allowed to go to sea.

When the wind exceeds Level 8, all fishing boats are prohibited from fishing!

Although they can still withstand the current storm, who knows whether the storm outside will be greater.

By the time they came back to the dock again, it was already broad daylight.

After everyone came ashore again, Ye Yaodong saw that the cherry tree his family planted next to Thean Hou Temple was almost falling over due to the wind.

After two years of planting, the trunks have become much stronger, but they are still tilted by the strong wind at almost 90 degrees, and more than 20 cherries are all tilted in one direction.

The tripod that supported the tree at the beginning was gone long ago, and he didn't care about it. He didn't know who took it away.

Seeing that the boatmen were all around, he didn't want to waste the existing labor, so he hurriedly asked them to help find some sticks to fix it again, so as not to be blown down by the wind.

He estimated that he should be able to eat the cherries planted by his children next year.

Ye's father was actually very surprised. He didn't expect that the children at home would be able to plant them for fun and grow them into a whole.

"It should bear fruit next year. When that time comes, take a broken fishing net and surround it here in advance to prevent people from stealing them."

"Well, my god, there are names on the trunks?"

When Ye Yaodong used a stick to fix the tree, he happened to see traces of pen strokes on the trunk.

"Ye Chenghai's tree? Haha, a few bastards even carved their own trees with their names?"

Father Ye also looked down and looked for it, and laughed.

"That's fine, mark it in advance, whoever planted it will come to pick it."

"Oh my god, this one was carved early, Ye Chenghu, he's not good at studying, but he's fast at learning. Others carve on the desk, but he carves on the tree trunk."

Ye Yaodong seemed to have found some fun, and he groped over every tree, wanting to see what these bastards secretly carved on the tree trunks, so that he could laugh at them when he got back.

"Haha, studying for the rise of China! Damn, I laughed to death..."

"You're ambitious, whoever carved this must be a good student." A boatman smiled and flattered him.

"Ye Chenghe, haha..."

Ye Yaodong was so happy, if it was someone else who carved it, he wouldn't laugh so exaggeratedly, but he didn't expect it to be Ye Chenghe, this silly boy.

Father Ye couldn't help but laugh and shook his head, "Hurry up and finish the work and go back to catch up on some sleep. You've made a wasted trip today. Let's see if the wind will be a little lighter tomorrow."

"I'll go look for it again to see if there's any more smart people..."

"What is this? Let me see... It's Ye Chenghe's tree again..."

"Chen Xiuni... Haha... She drew a heart... Haha..."

"Oh my god, it's so funny..."

Father Ye asked curiously, "Who is this?"

"Ye Chenghe's girlfriend..." Ye Yaodong was already laughing so hard.

"You guys do it, I'll go back and laugh at him..."

He walked home first while laughing. Anyway, there were so many people and just a few trees, it would be quick to tie them up casually.

Father Ye frowned, "What girlfriend? How old is he..."

Ye Yaodong walked home with a smile on his face. He was so happy that he hadn't recovered yet. He shouted as soon as he reached the door of his house.

"Ye Chenghe... Ye Chenghe..."

"He hasn't gotten up yet. It's only 6 o'clock. Why are you back?" Lin Xiuqing was pulling radishes in the yard and hurried out.

"The wind was too strong, so I came back. I'll wait for him to get up."

He was all smiles. Fortunately, he came back early, otherwise he would not be laughed at when he went to school.

"Why did you call him as soon as you came back?"

"You don't even know what he carved on the tree trunk, haha..."

It was funny just to think about it, and he repeated his discovery to Lin Xiuqing.

Lin Xiuqing also laughed, "How old is he? He's so precocious."

"12 years old, right? Almost."

"Since it's windy and we're back halfway, let's have a meal and go back to sleep. It's too early to get up at night."

"I'm not sleepy. I'm still energetic. Let's go eat first."

When Ye Yaodong passed by the old lady, he patted her shoulder, "It feels like the five generations will soon live under one roof."

The old lady laughed so hard that her gums were exposed. She tapped his foot with her cane, "Don't talk nonsense. Chenghe is still young."

"It looks like he should be more promising than Ah Hai. He knows to find a good wife for himself in advance."

He had the same wife in his previous life. There's nothing wrong with her. I just don't know if she was so precocious in his previous life.

He has encountered a lot of fun in this life.

"That silly kid doesn't know if others like him."

Ye Yaodong laughed and didn't answer. He went to eat first. The little ones at home hadn't gotten up yet.

Just as he sat down and picked up his chopsticks, Ye Chenghe ran over to the next room, shouting, "Uncle San, I got up. What did you call me for? I'm here..."

Sister Ye's voice was still faintly heard, "I usually call you... your uncle San... and you run faster than a rabbit..."

Ye Chenghe still had eye mucus hanging on his eyes, and his cotton jacket was still in his hands, but he had already run to him.

"Uncle San, what did you call me for so early in the morning? I was dreaming and I heard you calling me. I got up and asked my mother, and then I ran over immediately."

"Pick out your eye mucus first."

Ye Chenghe did as he was told, picked out the eye mucus on both sides, rubbed his eyes, and only said after picking it out clean: "Uncle San, why did you look for me?"

How can you find a good wife if you look so stupid?

"Laugh at you."

"Ah?"

"Study for the rise of China!"

Ye Chenghe was stunned.

"Ye Chenghe loves Chen Xiuni..."

Ye Chenghe's face flushed red again, and then he looked around in fear like a thief, and quickly stepped forward to cover Ye Yaodong's mouth.

"Who told you! Was it my brother?"

Ye Yaodong slapped his hand away, "Are you trying to silence me?"

"Uncle San, you can't tell anyone!"

It’s okay to laugh at him for engraving “Study for the Rise of China”. It’s just a little embarrassing to say it out loud, but the next one is embarrassing.

“My mouth is on my body. Ye Chenghe loves Chen Xiuni…”

“Stop, stop, stop…” Ye Chenghe put his hands together and bowed a few times, begging, “Don’t tell anyone, Third Uncle, please…”

“You can do it, but you don’t let people say it.”

“Who knew you saw it, how did you know?”

“It’s all fate. Ye Chenghe loves Chen Xiuni…”

Ye Chenghe hurried forward and covered his mouth again, “Third Uncle…”

“Let go, I’ll go to the village committee and get a loudspeaker to shout later.”

Ye Chenghe wailed, “No, then my reputation will be ruined.”

"Hehe, you are only allowed to carve secretly, but no one can tell?"

"You also said it was secretly, don't tell anyone, please, please, Third Uncle, if you don't tell anyone, we are still good friends."

"Who is good friends with you, I am your Third Uncle, your elder."

"Don't tell anyone, if you don't tell anyone, you are still my Third Uncle."

"What! If I tell anyone, you will kill your relatives for the sake of justice and disown me, right? Threatening me! If I tell anyone, I am still your Third Uncle, and you have to kneel to me when you get married."

"Then can I kneel to you now?"

Ye Yaodong couldn't help laughing.

"At most, I will get married and I don't want your red envelope!"

"Fuck, hahahahaha...are you going to make me laugh to death? No, I have to tell your mother that you don't want my red envelope when you get married."

"No, no, no, let's discuss it secretly."

Ye Yaodong's stomach was about to hurt from laughing, "Go away, don't disturb me while I'm eating, you're going to make me laugh to death."

"What is so funny?" The old lady came in and asked curiously.

"He said he didn't want me when he got married... Uh..."

Ye Chenghe quickly stepped forward to cover his mouth, then smiled at the old lady, "Nothing, Third Uncle was joking with me."

The old lady stepped forward and knocked his leg with her cane, "You are so disrespectful, let go of your Third Uncle quickly, don't disturb him from eating, he went out at night and hasn't slept yet."

"Okay, I'm leaving, Third Uncle, I'm leaving, remember that."

Ye Chenghe gave another warning, then ran away quickly.

Ye Yaodong couldn't stop laughing.

The old lady asked again curiously, and Lin Xiuqing also came in with a carrot and asked the same question.

He didn't keep Ye Chenghe a secret.

"This idiot told me not to tell anyone about him and Chen Xiuni's engraving, saying that I don't have to give a red envelope when he gets married. Hahaha, it's so funny."

"What a fool." The old lady also shook her head and laughed and scolded.

Lin Xiuqing also said with a smile: "If you tell others about this, people will laugh to death. How stupid."

"You're trying to amuse me so early in the morning, haha..."

"He was running so enthusiastically just now. He didn't even have time to put on his clothes before he ran over. He probably thought you were calling him for something good. My sister-in-law said at the door that he usually doesn't say anything when you call him, but when you call him, he runs faster than a rabbit."

"I guess I regret it now. Haha. I should go and destroy the body later."

"Hurry up and eat your food. What's so funny about him?"

"Don't you think it's funny?"

Lin Xiuqing smiled and shook her head, and said nothing.

When he was eating, his two children came down, rubbing their eyes and asking him why he was so noisy just now.

Ye Yaodong didn't say anything, just told them to eat quickly, and go to school and herd sheep after eating.

But when he finished eating and stood at the door, he saw Ye Chenghe running back from a distance. The smile on his face deepened. He probably really went to destroy the body.

Mrs. Ye caught him at the door and scolded him, "Where the hell have you been? You disappeared so early in the morning. Everyone else has gone to school, but you haven't eaten yet."

"Uncle San asked me to run errands for him."

Ye Yaodong: "..."

Mrs. Ye didn't say anything then, but urged him to hurry up and go to school.

Lin Xiuqing saw that he was still standing at the door and didn't go into the house to catch up on his sleep, and asked curiously: "Why don't you go to bed quickly? What are you standing at the door looking at?"

Ye Yaodong touched his chin, "I was thinking, should I make a written document that Ye Chenghe doesn't need me to give him a wedding red envelope, and let him sign it."

She smiled and patted him, "You're still arguing about this with the child. When he gets married, can you still save the red envelope?"

"It doesn't matter if you can't save the red envelope, but you can put this document in the red envelope for him."

After saying that, he thought it was a good idea, and immediately went back to the house to get paper and pen, just in time to practice calligraphy.

Lin Xiuqing looked at him writing in a serious manner with a notebook and a pen, and was also a little speechless.

"Did you take it seriously?"

"A real man should keep his word. I asked him to sign and seal when I came back at noon. I let him slip away just now. What a mistake."

"I think you are more like a child than him."

"Don't worry about it. When he gets married, I will definitely put this in a red envelope for him."

She looked down at what he wrote.

"I promise Uncle San that as long as Uncle San doesn't tell anyone about me carving Ye Chenghe's heart and Chen Xiuni on the tree, Uncle San won't have to give me a red envelope when I get married with Chen Xiuni."

After writing, Ye Yaodong put down his pen and blew the handwriting. He even drew a heart on purpose and copied the words on the tree trunk intact.

"How is it? My handwriting has improved, right? I know every word, and there are no missing limbs. When he comes back at noon, ask him to write his signature and the date!"

"You are so idle that you still bother with a child..."

"What's wrong with the child? The child has to keep his word. This is my handwriting. Who knows, it may be valuable in the future?"

Lin Xiuqing rolled her eyes, "I think I am a great calligrapher."

"That's hard to say. When I practice calligraphy, my calligraphy may be valuable when I become famous in the future."

"Go to sleep quickly."

There are all kinds of things in dreams.

Ye Yaodong smiled as he looked at the list he wrote and thought it was a good idea.

The red envelopes were definitely not to be saved, but this list was also a souvenir.

It was just right for his wife to keep and laugh at him for the rest of her life.

He smiled and tore the list off the book, took it into the house and put it in the drawer separately, and then lay on the bed with the child in his arms to take a nap.

But he didn't feel sleepy at all. The fun this morning made him a little funny, and now he was very energetic.

He was bored and had to pinch the child's face, touch her hands, and smell her feet.

Ye Xiaoxi felt itchy on her feet, so she kicked hard, causing half of Ye Yaodong's face to tilt to the side.

"Dad?"

"Stinky girl, are you awake?"

Ye Xiaoxi sat up and rubbed her eyes, "Dad, have you finished knitting the sweater?"

"Why another sweater?"

"You said two days later, but it's been many days."

"I can't do it."

"You learn."

"I learn...your mom?"

"Yeah, that's right."

Ye Yaodong looked speechless, tilting his neck and shouting at the door: "Lin Xiuqing, Lin Xiuqing..."

"What are you doing? You kept yelling so much in the early morning that you woke up the child."

"Take your daughter away."

Lin Xiuqing glared at him, but went in to get clothes for Ye Xiaoxi to wear.

Ye Xiaoxi shouted at Lin Xiuqing with a smile: "Mom! Mom!"

Lin Xiuqing's face was full of smiles as she shouted at her soft voice, "Why are you calling me mom all of a sudden?"

"Dad said to learn from your mom!"

The smile on her face froze, and she turned to stare at Ye Yaodong.

Ye Yaodong was already happy again.

"I didn't say that, it's none of my business."

"You didn't say that, how could she learn like that? You teach your child nonsense all day long." Lin Xiuqing took Ye Xiaoxi's clothes and hit his legs hard twice.

Ye Yaodong quickly shrank up, wrapped the quilt tightly around himself, pressed the edge with his legs, and then smiled and said flatteringly: "It's good to call mom, you don't have to call me mother like everyone else, we can just call me mom."

Ye Xiaoxi also threw herself into Lin Xiuqing's arms with a smile, hugged her neck and kissed and shouted: "Mom, Mom..."

Lin Xiuqing's heart was melted by her shouting, what else could she say.

"Stand up straight and put on your clothes quickly. Your father hates you and wants to kick you out."

"No."

Ye Yaodong lay on his side on the bed, supporting his head with one hand, watching the interaction between the mother and daughter with a smile.

"Hurry up and knit her rainbow sweater. Otherwise, how can I knit if she asks me for it every day? And you insist on asking me to learn from you. Why should I, a grown man, learn to knit a sweater?"

Lin Xiuqing glanced at him unhappily, "I know. You're just looking for trouble. I have to be busy. My hands are busy all day. I knit whenever I have free time. It's almost done."

"Ask my mother to help you knit. She's very free anyway. She can knit when she's chatting with others."

"Well, I've asked her to take the thread back and roll it up."

Lin Xiuqing put clothes, pants and shoes on the child and carried him out. Ye Yaodong was still shouting behind him: "Wait and see if Chen Wei has gone to the village committee."

"I know."

He rolled around in the quilt twice, and then closed his eyes comfortably, "It smells like milk..."

He slept happily until noon when the child got out of school, and then woke up again because of the child's noise.

As soon as he went out, he saw them running happily at the door.

"Ye Chenghe, come here."

Ye Chenghe learned his lesson this time. He didn't run over immediately. Instead, he stood there, not daring to come over, and whispered, "What are you doing, Third Uncle."

"Come here, do you hear me?"

This time, Ye Chenghe understood his threatening look and moved to him reluctantly.

"Third Uncle..."

"Keep your word. I promised you what you said this morning. Go in and sign for me."

Ye Chenghe couldn't believe it. He even had to sign?

"Are you still my Third Uncle? Is it that important?"

"Stop talking nonsense."

Ye Yaodong pushed him into the house, then took out the list and asked him to sign his name and the date, November 29, 1985.

"It's written in black and white, it's OK, get out."

"Hmph, I won't play with you anymore."

Ye Yaodong flicked his head hard, "Get lost."

After Ye Chenghe signed, he seemed to have confidence. The shame was resolved, and he was no longer afraid. He walked out with his head held high.

Ye Yaodong also put the list in the drawer and locked it.

Lin Xiuqing also watched them come out one after another in silence, and also knew why Ye Yaodong called Ye Chenghe over.

"You're so serious..."

"That's right."

Before leaving, Ye Chenghe didn't forget to agree, but when he turned around and saw Ye Yaodong's glaring eyes, he immediately ran away.

Ye Yaodong sat in his main seat, "It's time for dinner, where are the people?"

"Tell them to go to their hometown to ask their parents to come for dinner, and they both ran away."

"Um."

"I heard that Chen Wei left at dawn. Not even the mouse was there. The two of them left together."

He had a clear look on his face, no surprise at all.

"I knew it."

"Village cadres came to his house in the morning and found out that he had left early in the morning. Even his wife didn't know what time he left. She only found out when he woke up. She said that he got up before dawn and said he had to pee. Who knew and left. Someone who picked up dung saw it early in the morning and said that he saw two people walking towards the entrance of the village at about 4 o'clock."

"If you don't run faster, the village will soon arrange for him to build a factory and let him pay for it."

"I just know I don't have much money, so I'm trying to make a fool of myself."

"Originally I didn't want to care about them. They wanted to return to the village in glory. That would be great. But I didn't expect that they would come to my side and ask me to borrow chickens to lay eggs. Then I'll set them up for them and watch them. What to do.”

Lin Xiuqing packed the rice for him, brought it to him, and said with a smile: "The people in the village were scolding him in the morning, saying that he was pretending to be pretentious. If he didn't have money, why should he tell him earlier? He acted like he was rich. Who knows what's going on inside? It's empty."

"I heard that his wife came to his senses later and was still defending him, scolding everyone for spreading rumors, saying that he just had something to do temporarily and was in a hurry to go out and make a lot of money. He had no time to stay in the village and build a factory."

"You don't care what she said. You only believe what you see and know. Why did you run away before dawn if you didn't feel guilty?"

Ye Yaodong made a judgment and said, "It was a joke. I guess I regret coming back."

"I haven't made much money right now, so I'm probably too embarrassed to come back. I don't know what kind of money I can make outside, but just 5,000 yuan is a lot."

"There are many opportunities outside and it's easy to make money. He has been out for more than two years, so it's normal for him to make money."

These days, if you can go out and try your best to make money, there is no way you can't make money.

Many of them earn small amounts of money, which gradually accumulates into making big money.

Don’t underestimate people either.

After Ye's father and Ye's mother came over for dinner, they talked about this matter at the dinner table.

The traditional virtue of their family is that they have to say something to accompany the meal at the dinner table, otherwise the meal will not be delicious.

I saw the comments on the backstage and wanted to ask: What is Uncle Hui’s joke about? (Looking confused)
