Chapter 1209: You Can Still Have It After Washing It

Ye Yaodong has been resting at home for three days in a row, unable to go to sea. After the New Year, it feels colder and the wind is stronger. The spring breeze in February is like scissors. He feels that it is still winter and there is no spring breeze.

When I went to sea a few days ago, the sun was still shining, and I could clearly feel the temperature rising. The weather forecast for the past two days has been reporting frost, the temperature has dropped to zero degrees, and the wind has reached level 4.

When I get up early, I can see that the vegetable fields are covered with a thick layer of frost, and the windows are covered with white mist.

If you open the window even slightly, the cold wind will rush in and shiver you.

Ye Xiaoxi woke up early. Both the couple felt cold and were still lying in bed reluctant to get up, but she insisted on getting up and going out to play.

She even put on her own clothes, but the collar of the sweater was too small and her head was too big. So she put it on herself, but she was covered and couldn't breathe.

She screamed in fright and waved her hands around, "Help, it's stuck, it's stuck."

Lin Xiuqing quickly sat up and pulled down her sweater.

"Look at you, after a new year, the flesh on your face will droop again, and your head will be big."

"You have such a big head, how can you still use it like this?" Ye Yaodong muttered.

Ye Xiaoxi casually wiped the messy hair on his face, then smiled again and put on his clothes and pants.

But she still needed Lin Xiuqing to pull down her shrunken autumn clothes and trousers.

After finishing it, she climbed out of bed, stepped on the stool by the table, and played with the fog on the window.

She stretched out her index finger and drew a smiling face on the window, and then drew a crying face. She also drew a sun casually, and drew a bunch of kittens and puppies...

After finishing the painting, he stretched out his hand to erase these, put his head up, breathed out, and let the white mist condense on the window again, amusing himself, and having fun alone.

Ye Yaodong pulled the quilt up to his neck and tucked it tightly at the corners, "She should be allowed to sleep with the old lady. It's so cold and she got up so early."

After speaking, he also asked.

It would be better if he wanted to, so that he wouldn't have to dare to make any noise all day and night.

"No, you go and sleep with Mrs. I want to sleep with Mom."

"I slept with your wife when I was a child, so you can go too. Your second brother often sleeps with your wife. Do you want to..."

"No, no, no, no..."

Lin Xiuqing said: "Don't forget it. When I was beaten, I knew how to hide behind your wife. When you are older, you can sleep upstairs alone."

"OK."

"It's time to get up, it's past 7 o'clock."

"It's still early, the sky is gray."

"The weather has been like this for the past two days. I have to take a look at the workshop. Fortunately, with Holly's help, I don't have to get up so early to remember people."

"Then since I've hired someone to do it, I'll do it less. In this kind of weather, I can stay at home if I can."

The sky was gray and there was a cold wind, and even his parents were too lazy. They hadn't come over to eat for two or three days. They just wanted to open a small stove at home and make whatever they wanted to eat. It was just two people anyway.

It was a cold day, and it was not worth the cold wind to blow all the way here just to have a meal. The two of them had nothing to do and didn't even want to step out.

Except for those who have to go out to work for a living, they usually stay at home in this kind of weather, sitting in front of the stove and warming themselves by the fire.

The cold wind is biting. Winter is very cold now, and the four seasons will be distinct. Unlike in the future, greenhouse efficiency will not be like winter at all.

The private seals he brought back have not yet been taken to his parents, and are still thrown away in the drawer.

There's no rush anyway, in this weather, there's no place to show off if you take them.

Lin Xiuqing couldn't let go of the private seal engraved with her name. She even printed it and played with it for a long time before she was willing to put it away. But when she opened the drawer and saw it, she would take it out and take a look.

"Don't be lazy, get up and have breakfast, then go back to sleep after eating."

"Yeah." Ye Yaodong responded, but his body remained honest and motionless.

Lin Xiuqing didn't care about him. After getting dressed, she took her child out to wash up. She also had to go to the workshop to have a look. She couldn't lie down as comfortably as he did.

There is also a student at home who can't get up every day and doesn't want to go every day. But on weekends, no matter it's windy, rainy or hailing, he gets up earlier than chickens.

You have to go take a look at this. You have to drag people up and drive them out to school.

In the room, she had already heard the scolding coming from the next door, as well as the sound of going up and down the stairs. No one was not scolded.

Ye Yaodong originally thought of waiting for two more days before going to the city to check on the delivery status of the barrels and vats. The delivery date was almost here, and he kept remembering it.

If all the containers are delivered to the factory, he will arrange for people to take the goods there for fermentation, and his wife will also help him invite the people.

It's just that the plan couldn't keep up with the change. It had been gloomy for a few days, and suddenly it started to rain lightly. Now they couldn't even get out, and they were all upset.

Fortunately, the weather forecast was accurate this time. They received it a day in advance and even covered it with nylon cloth overnight.

There was not enough sun in the workshop, so the ones that were exposed to the open space nearby were taken back and hung casually in the workshop, as long as they could keep out the rain.

And they also asked the women to handle all the goods one night in advance.

That is to say, they now have more people, and there are a lot of people helping when they open their mouths, so they don't seem so panicked.

It had been raining for two days and the temperature had just risen a little. It had only been sunny for two days. Before they could relax, there was another thunder. Fortunately, they did not relax, and the nylon cloth was still hanging on the workshop.

Ye Yaodong felt in his heart that it was not a problem to rely on pure natural drying every day, but there was no way now. Even if he could get electrical appliances, the voltage was not good, so he could only make do with it now.

Building a simple drying room is only a drop in the bucket for him. The amount of dried fish he produces is too large, so he still has to make do with drying it. He will wait two years to make money. Anyway, he can still make money now.

At worst, you have to compete with God for food.

When the rain stopped, the whole family breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, it was inevitable that some fish would not be dried because it was wet and smelly.

After the rain stopped, they really started to get busy. Lin Xiuqing asked the 10 or so workers regularly hired in the workshop to help pick out all the smelly dried fish.

Fortunately, their family now has a big business and can bear such a loss.

The picked dried fish is not thrown away directly. It can be mixed with pig grass and fed to the two sisters-in-law's pigs, or chopped into pieces to feed the geese and dogs at home.

Also because their workshop is drying fish non-stop every day, the area around their workshop has also attracted stray cats from villages all over the country. They all surround their workshop and meow every day.

Preliminary estimates suggest that there are about a dozen of them, and there are usually people watching them all day long, but no stray cats have harmed those goods.

Lin Xiuqing would often throw in some stale fish to feed, but it looked a bit like the signs of a domestic cat getting closer.

Now there is a lot of smelly dried fish, and the cats' recent food rations have also been secured.

Ye Xiaoxi has always been Lin Xiuqing's follower, not to mention that after being locked up at home for several days without going out, how could he stay after the rain stopped and the sun cleared.

Looking at a bunch of stray cats that looked like drowned rats, she asked Lin Xiuqing. After getting permission, she took a handful of stinky dried fish and threw them into a basket, squatting in a corner to feed them.

In just an instant, she was surrounded by more than a dozen stray cats of various colors, and she couldn't even feed them.

Each one made a soft meowing sound eagerly. She touched one and comforted the other.

Ye Yaodong also planned to go to the city when the rain stopped, but he happened to be blocked by Fatty at home, so he had to take him with him.

As soon as he entered the workshop and was about to drive the tractor, he saw his daughter's pockets were full of dried fish, she was holding a lot in her arms, and she was surrounded by stray cats.

"What are you doing?"

"Dad, can we take the cat home and raise it?"

"Do you think your home is a zoo? You don't even have to look at how many dogs you have at home, and you also have cats, so what's the point? All the dried fish will be left to them."

"But mom said you can feed me."

"If it's broken, you can feed it as you like. Stay away from these cats. It's unhygienic and too dirty."

Ye Xiaoxi looked down at her muddy rain boots, the mud on her knees, the mud on her sleeves, and her butt.

The cotton-padded jacket on my body has also been rubbed in pieces by the cats around me, and it doesn't look any cleaner than these cats.

"I'm dirty too. I'm just like a cat, so we can hug and get dirty together."

After saying that, she hugged her and kept pushing the dirty cat that was eating dried fish into her arms.

With this hug, the clothes on her body were even worse, and even touched her face.

Ye Yaodong immediately looked away, "Aqing...Aqing...look at your daughter..."

The fat man looked at it happily, "Your daughter looks no different from these cats. She is also a little tabby cat. You want your daughter to be my daughter-in-law from now on? I don't even have a daughter."

"Stay where you want to cool off, it's just what your two fat guys want."

"Isn't this a little fat guy of yours? My son won't dislike him."

"I'll kill you with one blow, and your whole family will be fat."

When Lin Xiuqing saw that she hadn't seen Ye Xiaoxi for a while, she could feed a cat all over her body, and she was furious.

"Ye Xiaojiu!"

The busier the adults are, the more trouble she can cause.

Ye Xiaoxi looked at her sullen face, picked up a kitten, and hid behind the fat man in fear.

She felt that her biological father couldn't save her at this time. After all, it was her biological father who called her to beat her.

"Abba, help, Mom said you can feed me..."

Ye Xiaoxi looked at her trotting over and almost cried, "You said it could be fed... you said it, you said it..."

The fat man hurriedly protected him and said with a smile: "Oh, what's the big deal? If it's dirty, it's dirty. Who's child is not dirty? Since I told her that she can feed stray cats, then let her play with them. They are all done anyway." If it’s dirty, take it back and wash it when you’re done, and you’ll have a clean fat baby again.”

Ye Xiaoxi quickly put back the tears that were about to fall down and nodded.

Because she was naughty, she was beaten frequently after the Chinese New Year, so much so that she was beaten too frequently, and now she also knows what it means to be afraid.

Seeing how pitiful she was, Ye Yaodong also regretted filing a complaint.

"Then why don't you give it to her to play with? It's dirty anyway, and it doesn't look any cleaner than those cats. When you're done, you can take it back and wash it."

Ye Xiaoxi nodded like he was pounding garlic, "Yes, I still want it, and the cat will wash it too."

"It's good that I didn't hit you. Don't hug me anymore. I'll take care of you when I have my hands free."

"I'll go to the city with Fatty and take Wang Guangliang with me. I'm not sure if I'll be back today."

"knew."

I feel so tired today. I didn’t get enough sleep. I feel groggy. My college classmates came last night. I took them out for a walk and a meal. I came back and wrote until 2 o’clock. But I woke up at 7 o’clock and took them out again at 9 o’clock.

I had my period again yesterday. I had backaches all day. I took a nap after sending people away in the afternoon. I slept for a while at night. Now I feel that I am too late to write.

I will make up for it tomorrow. I will make up one chapter during the day and update 7,000 at night.

I feel strange recently. I always write for two days in one day. Alas...
