Chapter 1214 Uncle Ye’s Plan
"Why are you sulking? Are you mad at him again?"
"No, I was just telling him the truth, but he took it the wrong way. It's okay. Just work for him and let him vent."
"You are such a fool. You don't know what to say. Dad just came back from the sea, and you mad at him."
Ye Yaodong felt wronged. He didn't say anything. It was obviously his father who misinterpreted it.
"Then you, the filial daughter-in-law, go home and cook for him, so that he can calm down. I'll watch here."
"Okay."
Father Ye moved the goods back and forth, and heard what the couple said, and his expression became natural.
After moving the goods, he calmed down and turned to talk to Ye Yaodong again.
"If you have classes tonight, don't get your clothes dirty. Change them later and wear them at night. Otherwise, don't go in and out here. It will be full of fishy smells. It's not good for others to smell when you go to class."
"Okay, there are so many people working, you don't have to keep moving things around."
"I've already moved them, and you're saying this?"
Ye Yaodong shut up immediately.
A Guang smiled and said, "Donzi, isn't this caring about you?"
"He cares about me, and he often asks me to carry manure."
A Guang couldn't help laughing out loud.
Although I don't know why my father-in-law suddenly said this, it sounds really funny.
Ye Yaodong also laughed, "Then I often ask you to eat."
"So I have to carry manure for you?"
The people around him laughed happily after hearing Ye's father's resentful words.
Ye Yaodong changed the subject and looked at Pei Dongqing who was writing on the calculator. "Have you finished the calculation? If you have, give them the list of goods. You and your brother can go home for dinner."
"Right away."
"You guys should go home for dinner. The goods have been moved. Why are you still standing there? You are smelly. Don't make people feel uncomfortable."
"Oh, don't worry. Stay a little longer..."
A Guang walked over and waved away the people who were gathered around. "Go away, stay away. You are getting closer and closer. Don't surround my sister. You are asking for a fight."
"We will protect Sister Dongqing, otherwise these toads will come to us."
"Get out, get out of here."
Father Ye also helped to drive people away. "Aren't you tired?"
All the people said in unison, "No."
Ye Yaodong shook his head helplessly. The little sheep in the wolf's den are more popular.
Fortunately, there are many women working in the workshop, so Pei Dongqing's work here is not too abrupt.
After Pei Dongqing finished counting, he handed the list to Ye Yaopeng, Zhou Da, and A Guang, and stood behind A Guang.
"Brother Dong, I'm going home to eat first."
Ye Yaodong nodded, "Go, come back after dinner."
The men watched the brother and sister walk out, and then they shouted, "Come on, come on, we're going home to eat too..."
They shouted, but a large group of people followed the brother and sister together, following them all the way, almost pissing A Guang off to death, and they couldn't be driven away.
Ye's father sighed, "Look at these people, they are like wolves, the little girl is so thin-skinned, it's a good thing your sister is married, otherwise I would be the one who is upset."
Ye Yaodong also agreed deeply.
If his little sister had stayed until now and hadn't married, his father probably wouldn't be able to step out of the door and would have to stay at home.
"Let's go home for lunch. We just came back in time for lunch."
Father Ye said as he walked: "There are so many people, all of them are good at working, so you can just pick one. That girl is not young anymore. Most people in the village get married at the age of 18 or 19. Only they don't have a mother, so they drag one by one until this age. It's hard to find a man who is older. Now it's okay for a woman to be a rich man."
"Don't talk nonsense. If it were you, how could you just pick one as a son-in-law? Uncle Pei has only three children in total, not seven or eight like other families. It doesn't matter. Just pick one that's about right."

Thinking of this, if any of them could become his son-in-law and take Ye Xiaoxi away, he would want to kill them all.
Those crooked melons and cracked dates are like miscellaneous fish. There is no decent one. How can they match?
A flower stuck in cow dung is disgusting.
"It's not me who's worried. Anyway, my daughter is married, so I don't have to worry about it. Now there is a stepmother, and your sister's sister-in-law can help."
Father Ye felt a little comforted. Fortunately, his daughter was married, and the Pei family seemed quite reliable.
Lin Xiuqing had just returned early and had prepared a table of food. They didn't wait for Ye's mother to come over and started eating first.
Ye Chenghu climbed onto the table and was stunned by his father's dress opposite.
"Dad, you got promoted again?"
"How can you tell?"
"It looks like you got promoted. Why do you only wear one pen? Don't you have several? Hang them all up!"
"You're crazy, why do you hang so many?"
"If you don't hang them all up, how can people know that you have so many pens? When people ask, you can say they are all rewards! Won't everyone admire you more?"
Lin Xiuqing held the rice in his mouth and smiled.
Ye Yaodong knocked on the table in a serious manner, "Eat your meal, why would a kid talk so much? Do you need to worry about me? What's your business if I hang a few pens? Do you think I am you? You love to show off so much."
"You are dressed differently today, so I am making a suggestion."
"Even eating can't stop you from talking."
He also felt a little weird, but after seeing others dress like this, he wanted to try it himself. Ye Chenghu's curious eyes always made him feel that he was the same as him.
So, after dinner, he took off the pen on his chest, changed his clothes, and put away his briefcase.
Then he went to check the accounts of the fishing boat this month with others, and asked A Qing to pay this month's salary.
In the evening, he took a notebook, stuck a pen on it, put it in the basket in front of the bicycle and went to the Party School.
After entering the Party School, he felt a lot more comfortable.
In the morning, he came in and out with a briefcase, and he felt a little awkward and weird.
Sure enough, wild boars can't eat fine bran.
What kind of character should be what kind of character, pretending is not suitable for him.
After receiving the wages from the two brothers in the evening, Ye's father also told them that he would continue to work on Dongzi's boat after Qingming Festival. He also explained the details to them.
Although the two brothers were a little unhappy, they had no choice but to let their father go back to follow Dongzi. Fortunately, the boats were all in one place, which made them feel at ease.
Ye's eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law were more direct. They hung clothes at the door early the next morning and directly said that their father was partial.
They were both driving boats, but he stopped helping them after only two months. It's not like he didn't pay him...
He had driven for Adong for several years but it was not enough. He hurried to help him again. They were both sons, but they were treated differently...
It happened that Ye's father finished breakfast and the old lady shouted that the toilet at home was almost full, so she asked his father to carry it to the pit to empty it, and the two sisters-in-law saw it again.
In fact, Ye's father also heard them talking about their dissatisfaction.
Mrs. Ye pinched her nose and greeted, "Dad, does Adong's toilet have to wait for you to come back to empty it?"
Mrs. Ye followed up, "It's been a few years, and I haven't seen you empty it for us."
"It's been a few years, and I haven't seen you invite me to your house for dinner?"
After saying this, Father Ye carried the manure and left.
The two sisters-in-law were speechless immediately.
Ye Chenghai came out of the house with his schoolbag and said, "I won't carry manure for you either, I also want to carry manure for Uncle San."
Mrs. Ye was so angry that he jumped up and ran away immediately.
The other children also ran after him.
"What kind of child is this, he always gets angry."
Ye Yaopeng said, "What are you mumbling so much in the morning? What's your big opinion?"
Please turn off the browser reading mode to view this chapter, otherwise you will not be able to turn the page or the chapter content will be lost.
Ye Yaohua also glared at Ye Ersao unhappily, "I haven't seen you carry manure for the family. You always waited for me to come back to carry it. Didn't I let you carry it? You're talking nonsense."
"I just saw that Dad always favored Adong and was partial to him..."
"Yeah, he didn't help us at all..."
Ye Yaopeng said bluntly: "You want to take care of him in his old age, and he will also support you and help you."
"I want to, but he has to be willing to live with us."
"Why didn't you do that before? You're saying this now."
Ye Yaodong fanned the stench from his nose with his hand. Don't think he can't hear it. He said loudly: "Two years ago, when my parents had no money, I didn't see you say that. Now that the two old people have money in their pockets, he can live with whoever he wants and give to whoever he wants. Work for whoever you want."
"Who doesn't even have the freedom to work?"
Lin Xiuqing also said angrily: "The old lady's small house in my hometown was occupied by you to raise pigs. What did I say?"
"We used to use the old house to ferment fish sauce, but now we have moved out. We have never taken advantage of it again."
"Even the old lady cultivated a small vegetable field by the roadside at the entrance of the village, didn't she plant it for you?"
"You still say you are partial to us? Didn't you take all the benefits? What are you partial to us? What are you biased towards us? They are still supported by me, and you are partial to us just because they help us do some work?"
The old lady also sighed across the wall, but she was actually talking to the wall with her neck tilted up.
"Brothers are still connected by bones, but wives are different. Gossiping about other things affects the relationship between brothers..."
Ye Yaopeng immediately scolded Ye Dasao: "Listening to your gossips early in the morning, what's wrong with you? Come in and tell me, is it embarrassing... You are jealous, what else can you do besides jealous, come in."
The couple immediately started to curse each other.
Ye Yaohua and his wife also pulled and tugged, and started to curse.
The weather has been warming recently, and the neighbors around got up early to work early in the morning.
I didn't know what happened, but the dispute between the two families was too loud, which also attracted the attention of other people, and they all wanted to run over to watch.
They also felt ashamed, so they pulled and tugged into the house, closed the door and scolded.
Some people didn't know the situation, so they asked Lin Xiuqing curiously.
Lin Xiuqing said, "It's nothing. Every couple has conflicts. They can fight over a small matter. Anyway, they fight at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed. The eldest and second brothers are not the kind of people who would do anything reckless or beat their wives. They just cursed at each other and it was over."
"That's right. It seems that they have a good relationship. They are not like other families who fight every other day."
"A couple should be considerate of each other in their lives. If you are patient and he is more considerate, there will be fewer conflicts..."
The women expressed their opinions with their own experience and chatted at the door.
Lin Xiuqing didn't continue chatting with them. Seeing Ye Yaodong go out, she followed him and went to the workshop.
Yesterday, they brought back a large number of miscellaneous fish, but they haven't fermented them all yet. They lack salt.
They can only continue fermenting after a truckload of fish arrives early this morning, so she has to go and see if it has arrived.
The old lady muttered to others: "They have been living a good life for too long, and they are not comfortable. They have to mutter a few words and make people dislike them. They will be fine in two days."
Lin Xiuqing also said to Ye Yaodong as she walked: "It's just that we didn't kill fish today. We paid all the wages yesterday. Otherwise, they would be embarrassed."
"They just feel that Dad has only helped them drive the boat for two months, and now he doesn't help them anymore. They want to come and drive the boat for me, so they feel uncomfortable. Don't worry about it. They will just quarrel a few times. The unnaturalness will pass in a few days. After a while, they will still come together to kill fish for us to earn wages."
It's not the lack of wealth that is worrying, but the inequality.
Comparing the two, most people didn't think much about it. They just thought that one son helped to drive the boat for two or three years, while the other two only helped for two months and then stopped. They would feel a little unbalanced.
However, Ah Qing just pointed out the advantages they had taken. I guess they were not justified and angry, so it was not easy to bring it up again.
After a long time, some people will be more forgetful. They only remember the advantages taken by others at present, and will not remember the advantages they took in the past.
There are too many such people.
There will always be various frictions when living together, even brothers will have them, but it is better than outsiders, and there will be no overnight hatred.
It is true that it rains during the Qingming Festival, but at the same time, the temperature is getting higher and higher day by day.
The rain during the Qingming Festival is intermittent, and it will be over in half a day.
It is also customary to sweep the tombs during the Qingming Festival, and the same is true for asking for tomb cakes.
Please turn off the browser reading mode to view this chapter, otherwise you will not be able to turn the page or the chapter content will be lost.
This year is the first year that the tomb has been repaired. It was not repaired during the Qingming Festival last year.
The tomb sweepers were still the same group, but Uncle Ye was still thinking about the ancestral temple in the province, and asked Ye Yaodong on the way.
"Do you think we should go to the ancestral temple to burn incense and kneel down to worship during the Qingming Festival? Has anyone in the province called you?"
"No, I don't think so."
"Do we have to wait until the anniversary of the completion of the ancestral temple before we go to kneel down and burn incense?"
"I don't know."
"Why don't you call and ask?"
"You seem to care about your ancestors more than your own father, Uncle?" Ye Yaodong teased.
"Don't you want the ancestors to bless you?"
"Why did I hear from my father that you have been asking about smuggling these days?"
Uncle Ye smiled, not feeling embarrassed at all, "Ah, haha, I wanted to ask. How good it is abroad. I heard that there are jobs everywhere and the salary is high. This child stays at home, either going out to sea or working at home. How can he have any future? There is not much work to do at home, and it is not good to stay idle at home."
"The head fee for going abroad is very high. Are you ready?"
"We are all family members. I want to ask if it can be cheaper. Haha, I also want to ask people to take care of me more. Adong, please help me ask when you are free. We are all family members. He is also your nephew. If he has a future, you will be proud of it."
Ye Yaodong's mouth twitched. His uncle was still so good at calculating, and his mind turned faster than him.
He went to the provincial ancestral hall only last year to recognize his ancestors, and he immediately had an idea.
"I'm not that confident. It's your first time going there, and it's my first time going there too. What do you think? Wait until the next time you go to the province, and ask yourself. I'm afraid I can't convey the message clearly."
"Aren't you familiar with that Lao Hai? Lao Hai asked you last year if you wanted to send your children abroad. You can definitely ask him and ask him to give you a cheaper price."
"I'll give you the number, and you ask? I can't guarantee it. I don't know how to send them abroad and what the situation is. I'm afraid I can't convey the message clearly. It's better for you to talk about it yourself, and you can know more clearly."
"Is that Lao Hai reliable?"
Ye Yaodong: I think you are even less reliable.
"You already have an idea, but now you ask whether Lao Hai is reliable or not? When you wanted me to ask for you just now, you didn't even think about whether he was reliable or not."
"Haha, then give me your number later and I'll call him to ask and find out first."
"It seems that several cousins have saved a lot of money in the past two years, and they can send their children abroad."
Ye Yaoguo, the cousin of the second uncle, took over and said, "Isn't it because you think you can't miss the opportunity? The children at home are grown up and can work. What kind of work can we do here? We can only earn 30 to 50 yuan a month at most. I heard that you can easily earn thousands of yuan a month abroad."
Another cousin also echoed, "Yes, I heard that it is very prosperous abroad, and work is easy You can earn a few thousand yuan by just looking for a job. One year of working abroad can be equivalent to working at home for a lifetime. "
Uncle Ye also said: "Send two out first. When they are on their feet, one will take one, and the whole family will be taken out. Isn't this better?"
"During the ancestor worship before, those overseas Chinese also said that they used to be like this. After smuggling out, the fellow villagers outside would help each other, stick together, and one would take one, and one would help one to become stronger."
"If they can work abroad safely, our family will definitely be good in the future. We have to sell everything we have to send one out first."
This family is really bold and ambitious. They actually want to make a fortune abroad.
I guess I have been thinking about it for several months, and now I can't wait any longer and take the initiative to ask him.
"Since you have already thought about it, then go ask them yourself, and then form a group and ask them to give you a discount."
"What does grouping mean?"
"If there are many people, we can give them a discount. You also need to understand the risks. Don't blame me for not reminding you. Visas are not easy to get. You generally have to smuggle. You know what smuggling means."
Ye Yaoguo said: "Well, give us your number later, and we will solve it first to confirm whether you can arrange a job. Or when are you going to the provincial capital? We will take your boat and ask directly in person. It would be better. By the way, you can also help to talk."
"Then you have to go to sea with me. I may dock in the provincial capital when I go to sea. If I go to sea with me, I will not count my salary. When I dock in the provincial capital depends on the situation. Otherwise, you can go whenever you want."
"Then... let's call and find out first."
"You can do it yourself. I will write you the number when you go home after sweeping the tomb."
In the previous life, these nephews had never been abroad. In this life, everything is really changing.
The idea is good and in line with the trend.
There are indeed many people who sneak abroad to work, and they are everywhere. It's just that what will happen is unpredictable. First of all, they have to ask Mazu to bless them to arrive at their destination safely.

His sincere blessing!
If you work abroad and become successful in the future, that's even better, and it will bring honor to your family.
"Okay, okay... If they become successful, they will never forget your help..."
"I didn't help anything, so don't remember me. Think about it carefully first. There are definitely risks."
"Okay."
Others were whispering about the benefits of going abroad.
Last year, I went to the provincial capital to pay homage to my ancestors. Seeing those glamorous overseas Chinese, I was envious of them.
They were all chatting there. As long as they could work abroad, no matter how they went out, they would still be overseas Chinese and live a glorious life when they came back...
Father Ye pulled Ye Yaodong aside and asked quietly: "If they are caught for illegal immigration, they will be sent back, right? They won't get their money back, right? Isn't that a waste of money?"
"This is a gamble on a future."
"Then let them talk among themselves. Otherwise, if they ask you to help, you will have to pay for it if it fails?"
"It's not my son going abroad. Why should I get involved? They are the only ones who can do it. I plan to go."
"Let's take a gamble. If I really work abroad, I can earn a few thousand yuan a month. Just sending some money back will be enough for the whole family. Your second uncle's idea is not bad. The whole family will benefit."
Ye Yaodong laughed twice, "Then when everyone worships their ancestors later, be more sincere and ask for their blessings."
Ye Erbo said happily: "Of course, we have prepared a lot of offerings. My father will have a good place to live this year, and I hope he will bless me more."
The two families talked lively.
A large group of children had already run away happily.
Only Ye Dabo and Ye Yaofan were silent all the time and did not join them in talking.
No one took the initiative to say more to them. Everyone's topic was about smuggling abroad to work, and everyone was looking forward to it.
After going up the mountain, some grass had grown taller than people. They took sickles to clear the way and talked all the way to the cemetery.
The cemetery is only visited once a year during the Qingming Festival, when we weeding is done. The cemetery has long been surrounded by weeds.
A large group of men each found their own location to weed.
Ye Yaodong also muttered while weeding, "It's Qingming Festival again. This year, we will go to the mountain to worship our ancestors. I hope my ancestors will show up soon..."
"Dongzi, what are you mumbling?" Ye Yaosheng asked him with a smile.
"Oh, let's chant before we worship, let the ancestors know we are here, and get ready to come out quickly. When we worship later, we can make a wish for them to hear."
"You have already achieved the goal of exchanging a small boat for a big boat, a big boat for a bigger boat, and more boats."
"Who would complain about having too much money?"
"I will have to learn to chant from you later. What you chanted two years ago was quite useful."
Ye Yaodong smiled and said, "Then you should chant too."
Ye Yaosheng whispered, "My father and my brother actually wanted to borrow money from you. I heard that it would cost a lot of money to smuggle out, several thousand yuan. They plan to send two people first, so they can have a companion, so it will cost tens of thousands of yuan."
"Yeah, I see."
After listening to what they just said, he realized it.
If they can successfully smuggle, working hard abroad to make money is indeed better than working at home. They are indeed decades behind now.
He also hopes that the next generation of nephews can develop better and not be trapped in a small fishing village. There are certainly more opportunities outside.
But they didn't say anything, so he was happy to pretend he didn't know.
"Do you also agree with them smuggling their children out?"
"Why should I agree or not? My own children make their own decisions and take their own risks. What's the point of my approval or disapproval? Besides, if the first two girls of your eldest brother and second brother's family are not counted, then the two nephews are sixteen or seventeen years old, and they are not children anymore. If they also want to try their luck, how can adults not support them?"
"That's what I said."
"So why are you worrying about it? Your daughter is only a few months old? When they have made it, they will help you out."
Ye Yaosheng laughed, "You are right. Then I hope they can successfully go abroad and make a lot of money, so that they can help everyone."

"Well, I will ask them to help me when the time comes."
"Don't joke, everyone is asking you to help them. Don't you see that they are all polite to you now, just afraid that they will make you unhappy. My father and my eldest brother and second brother dare not ask you to borrow money, just because they are afraid that you will be angry and nothing will happen."
Ye Yaodong thought about it, and it seemed to be true.
In the past two years, they could go to his house and yell at him, and they were justified to put on the airs of elders and asked him to help them.
When I went to the provincial capital to take his boat last year, I still complained to him.
Now they are starting to smile and dare not make him unhappy?
Is this the benefit of being an official?
When the height rises to a certain stage, will you automatically be afraid?
"Do you still see it clearly?"
"Your sister-in-law said so."
"Oh, my sister-in-law is so smart, you picked up a treasure."
Ye Yaosheng smiled sweetly and happily, "Yes, I'm lucky."
Ye Yaodong was disgusted for a moment, he just said it casually, as for feeding him dog food?
"Go over there."
"What's wrong?"
"Didn't you see that it's all mowed here? Are you going to mow the area within a radius of ten miles?"
"That's not so exaggerated, isn't it just one or two more meters to be mowed out? Haha, then I'll go to the side."
There is strength in numbers. A group of strong laborers worked for more than half an hour, and the cemetery had been cleaned up. The weeds within a range of two or three meters on the side had been removed cleanly.
The broom had swept from the top of the grave to the bottom, clean.
It was originally a new tomb that had only been built for a year. Except for the weeds around it, the cemetery was not dirty and was not invaded by stubborn weeds.
They had already used stones to press the yellow paper all around the cemetery, and then pressed it again on the outer part of the cemetery where they had just cleared it.
Finally, they took a big stone and pressed a piece of yellow paper on the bulging part above the cemetery, and then knelt down to worship.
Ye Erbo was very active, and took the job of lighting incense and distributed incense to everyone.
Uncle Ye was angry, but he didn't say anything.
