Chapter 379 : Chapter 379 The Old Lady Exploded - Return to the Small Fishing Village of 1982

The two children were jumping around excitedly, stepping on the water and running out. Ye Yaodong couldn't stop them, he shouted from behind and hurriedly followed.

"Wow~ Dad, there are so many quacks and fishes in the sea."

Ye Yaodong also saw it, and saw the goods in the sea rolling and riding on the waves. The yellow rolling tide washed the fish and clams to the beach and brought them to the sea, but there were still many left on the shore. I got stuck on some rocks on the shore and did not follow the tide back.

He held the two children by their back collars and said, "You two, take it easy and don't go any further. Don't get swept away by the waves."

Ye Chenghu twisted his body and struggled, "If I don't move forward, I will just pick up a quack. There are a lot of quacks piled up there, and there are also small fish and crabs. Dad, please let go..."

Ye Yaodong had seen it a long time ago, "Be careful, Yangyang goes home and gets the bucket."

"No, brother, go ahead."

Ye Chenghu clenched his fists and gestured at him, "Go. If you don't, I'll beat you."

Ye Chengyang looked at Ye Yaodong aggrievedly, "Dad"

Ye Yaodong was indifferent. If he was the youngest, who would go if not him?

"Go if I tell you to, hurry up."

Ye Chengyang's mouth was aggrieved and unwilling to give in. He turned around reluctantly every step of the way and walked several steps before trotting home.

Then two couples, Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua, also wearing rain boots and carrying buckets, came over with Ye Chengyang.

The rain had just stopped, and there were only three of them picking up small seafood on the beach. The children next door had gone to school and had not yet finished school.

But not long after, the neighbor next door saw them picking up small seafood on the beach and came over to pick them up too.

People in the village waited for the rain to stop and ran to the beach to watch the waves, and they also picked it up.

It’s seafood after all, and you can get extra meals by picking it up. It’s been raining for so many days, and everyone hasn’t had fresh fish and shrimp for a long time. Now that you see it, there’s no reason not to pick it up.

Although the waves haven't receded yet, you can still pick up some scattered ones on the beach, so it's no problem to add a meal.

When the tide recedes the next day, there will be even more people on the beach.

Ye Yaodong carried half of the bucket full of goods, straightened up, looked at the dense crowd of people on the beach, and hit his back. He was tired of bending down to pick it up all the time.

"Everyone is probably suffocated. Come out for some air and pick up some seafood."

"Yes, I haven't eaten fresh food for a whole month. The rain has just stopped these two days, and there are no ships out to sea. Why don't you come to the beach to pick up some and take it back to add to your meal?" Ye Yaopeng also straightened up and said with a smile. .

Ye Yaohua had just caught a small green crab and said happily: "I'm sure I can catch some fish tonight when I go out to sea."

Ye Yaodong looked into the distance. The sea was still turbulent and turbid. "I don't know if the waves are big at night."

"You'll know when you get up at night and take a look. If the waves aren't too big, go as soon as possible. There will be plenty of goods just after the heavy rain." Ye Yaohua was very excited and wanted to go out to sea and do something big.

This time, after it had rained for so many days, everyone was not so anxious. After all, they had just made a lot of money before the rainy season came.

Ye Yaodong deducted the money for the network machine, the salary for his father, and miscellaneous money and earned more than 1,200 points.

….

Not to mention, his father made a lot of money by following him. In addition, his eldest brother and second brother can also share the rent of the fishing boat. The two old people now have a lot of money.

But it’s still early to retire, and his father is still young and can still work with him! The old lady is 81 years old and is still farming there, and his father is only over 50, so why retire?

However, Ye's father is really settling accounts with Ye's mother at this moment. How much money does he have? He also said there that he can retire and save enough coffins.

"What's the point of retiring? You're only over 50 and you don't want to work anymore? Do you still want your sons to start supporting you now? How stressful is that? You old thing, you don't know what to do until you grow old. Think about it for your son’s sake.”

"He has an old man above him, a young man below him, and a child who is waiting for food at home. He is still filial and always thinks about honoring me, an old man. You are only over 50 and you want to retire. What do you want to do?"

"I always say that Dongzi is lazy and doesn't work. You are not doing the right thing at the top and the bottom is crooked. If you retire now, you won't be any better than he was before. Dongzi has finally made progress, and you won't be either. You said you could help him for a few years and lighten his burden, but are you still thinking about retirement?"

"You have the nerve to take him so much salary. Shouldn't I be able to help my son more? He still has to raise children, but you don't need them. I don't even ask you to raise them. Dongzi bought this radio for me. "

The old lady was sitting on the armchair and listening to the drama on the radio, but when she heard Father Ye said that she could retire, she immediately became furious and scolded Father Ye bloody. .

Father Ye was stunned by the old lady's aura and said in a low voice: "I...didn't I just say it casually...I don't really want to retire and stop working. Then if I retire, I will also farm." ah………"

"What kind of land are you farming? It's only one-third of an acre. I can do it. Why do you still need to farm? Stop being lazy. If you should go to sea with Dongzi, just follow him honestly and help him keep an eye on him. He is still young and has little experience, so as an old man, you have to give him more thought and help."

"Don't want to work just because you have some money in your pocket. No, I have to tell Dongzi that I can't give you so much wages. This person doesn't want to work as soon as he has money. He's totally lazy.

After the old lady scolded Ye's father, she turned off the radio, turned around and walked out of the house, planning to go to Ye Yaodong's house now, planning to talk to him and give his father less money.

"Ah? Why don't I want to work as soon as I have money? Hey, hey, hey...where are you going?"

Father Ye immediately stopped the old lady with a headache, "I just said it casually, why are you reacting like this? You are old, don't act blindly, the rain has just stopped outside, the road is full of mud, and the rocks are slippery, you Calm down and don't cause trouble to others."

The old lady still angrily refused to give Father Ye a good look and threw away his hand, "Who am I causing trouble for? You still think I'm in trouble, right?"

"When you get old, you become a disdainful person. Then I won't live with you anymore. I'll live with Dongzi and move there tomorrow. I'll hate you when I see you. You're going to retire anyway and won't help me. You're of no use." Already..."

"I'll move over there, so I can look after the child for him... Right, right, I'll move over there tomorrow to look after the child for him. I can't help him with things on the ship, but fortunately I can help him at home."

….

The old lady stopped as she spoke, feeling that her idea was a good one, and she really planned to go back to the house to pack her clothes and things...

Father Ye looked at her rummaging through boxes and cabinets and really wanted to pack her clothes. His head was pounding and he regretted it so much.

He really shouldn't be so quick to talk about retirement. His mother is usually very trouble-free, but when it comes to things related to Dongzi, she puts him first in everything and starts to mess around.

"Please calm down. Aren't you going to cause trouble for him by moving over?"

"What trouble can I make? As long as I have a stutter, I can also look after his children and water the vegetable fields and pick vegetables. I'm much more useful than you."

"Then let me ask you, where did you move to live? He only has two houses in total, one for his two sons and one for the couple. You used to build another house for you. Aren't you adding to the chaos? You love him. , just don’t cause any trouble for him.”

When the old lady heard this, she stopped and realized that he couldn't live there.

She immediately sighed, "Oh... can't we live in it? It seems that I, an old and immortal person, am of no use anymore. Poor Dongzi, there is no one to help. My wife has to take care of three children. If you are busy at home and outside, you can’t go to sea with him, he will be alone at sea..."

Father Ye almost knelt down when he heard these words of self-pity.

"Mom, I didn't say I wouldn't help him. I just said casually, I don't want to retire anymore. Isn't it okay if I go to sea with him? Isn't it okay if I work for him until 80..."

The old lady immediately beamed, "There's no need to work until the age of 80. Don't you have to support yourself in old age? The palms of your hands are meat, and the backs of your hands are also meat. You just need to help him for a few more years. When he becomes more mature and has more experience, You can retire when you want to.”

Father Ye wiped the sweat from his forehead, and his mother was convinced that he was filial.

"I know that he is holding it in the palm of his hand, and it doesn't matter if I hold it in the back of my hand. That's what I said before, don't worry, I don't worry if he goes to sea alone. He doesn't have the obedience and stability of the boss or the second brother. I I will drive a boat for him for a few years and help him a little.

"Well, that's good. But you can't charge him too much. Look, how much did you get for catching a squid? Over 200? That's too much. Whose boatman gets so much a month? Money? He also has children to raise, and there are so many mouths at home..."

"Oh, won't everything mine belong to them from now on? I will share it with them from now on, and I will just help them save money in advance. You should worry less. His family is quite rich. In the past six months, he has not had any money. Less is better.”

"What he got is his. It was so hard to be exposed to the wind and sun all day long on the sea. It has only been half a year, and my face and neck are so tan...

"Mom, I've worked hard too! I've also been exposed to the sun and wind with him! Look at my face, it's much darker than his. It's even flaky in the cold weather in the past few months..."

"Uh..." The old lady coughed suddenly and couldn't speak anymore, "Then don't you put some clam oil on it?"

"Ahem...then...just think of it as saving for him. When the time comes, you can give him more points when he dies of old age."

Alas, he is in so much trouble. He is only over 50, and the old mother is thinking about waiting for him to die so that she can give her sweet grandson more money.

"Okay, you can continue to listen to your radio. The battery is out. Please tell me and don't run out to buy it by yourself. The roads are slippery on rainy days."

….

"Got it, got it."

Ye's mother watched Ye's father come out of the old lady's house shaking his head, pouting, and carrying his own money. The two children were jumping around excitedly, stepping on the water and running out. Ye Yaodong couldn't stop them, he shouted from behind and hurriedly followed.
