Chapter 609 Convincing Father Lin
After the meal, the two boys were waiting there with eager eyes, neither of them willing to take a step away, for fear that if they turned around, their parents would run away without them.
After knowing that no one would be left behind and could go to grandma's house, I felt relieved. One was sitting on the front bumper, and the other was sitting in the back seat with Lin Xiuqing, so happy that he was so happy.
Especially looking at the envious eyes of the cousins and sisters next to him, Ye Chenghu was not only happy, but proud.
"We are riding bikes to grandma's house today. When I come back from grandma's house, I will come and play with you."
"Then you have to come back at night, right?"
"That's it~" Ye Yaodong turned his head and glanced behind him.
"Stop talking, sit tight, I'm going to ride off." Ye Chenghu waved to everyone excitedly, and then said to Lin Xiuqing: "Mom, don't we take my sister with us?"
"If you take her with you, where will you sit? Otherwise, why don't you go?"
"No, then let her stay at home."
"Sit down obediently. Don't move or talk." Ye Chenghu was quiet for a while and wanted to speak again.
"Mom, why are we not riding on the tractor today?"
"No money required. Do you have money?"
"Aren't all my lucky money with you?"
"You don't have to eat, drink, or wear clothes all year round. Where do you get the new year's money? You don't have to spend money on it?" Ye Chenghu pursed his lips and said nicely when he took it away, helping him save it.
Later, when his grandparents gave them lucky money and red envelopes, he would secretly hide them. He remembered clearly that when the New Year was coming last year, he went to his grandparents' house and they gave him a red envelope, saying it was New Year's money given in advance. However, his mother took it away before he could warm himself up.
There will definitely be some this year too, just ask them to give it quietly later. The two children were full of expectations from the beginning, but their buttocks hurt from sitting down. They kept asking if they had arrived, had they arrived?
The sound was like a magic sound, giving both the couple a headache. Ye Yaodong thought of the Wanzi motorcycle he saw last night, and fantasized about it. If only he had a Wanzi three-wheeled motorcycle, well, he would be there in no time.
But... I can only think about it. I can't afford it, and I can't buy it. Even if there are some that are eliminated in the army, they will be used by local governments, and individuals can't buy them.
It was a bumpy ride, and amid constant inquiries from the two children, we finally arrived.
"Ah! It's here, my butt is blooming." Ye Chenghu quickly got out of the back seat when Lin Xiuqing got down.
"My butt hurts too."
"I didn't hear you yelling when I was walking before. Now I'm riding a bicycle and you're still barking like this. When I go back, I'll throw you to the side of the road if I bark again." Both of them asked this question no less than 180 times along the way, and their ears were shaking. It's cocooned.
"Then I won't go back. I will celebrate the New Year at my grandparents' house."
"Okay, I can just save some food and a new set of clothes, so I don't need to make them for you."
"That won't work, I want to wear new clothes." Ye Chenghu said as he ran into the house to call someone. Lin Xiuqing was too lazy to pay attention to him. She first helped to take down the basket and bucket hanging on the handlebar of the car, and said hello to the neighbors who were sitting at the door to bask in the sun.
Mother Lin was digging sweet potatoes in the backyard. When she heard someone calling her grandma in the house, she happily put down the hoe and ran into the house.
"Why are you free to come over today? If you are busy at home, it's okay if you don't come over. Home work is important..."
"Thinking that today is a good day and the weather is good, I came here today. Where is my dad?"
"I took a group of little ones to pull radishes. I plan to take back all the radishes in the field to dry them if the weather allows in the next two days."
"Ah, pull out carrots! I'm going, I'm going!" Ye Chenghu's eyes lit up when he heard about pulling out carrots, and he jumped up instantly.
"I know where it is!" What kind of dog has such a good memory? Lin Xiuqing quickly grabbed him,
"You're not allowed to go. If your clothes are stained by me, I won't beat you!" Mother Lin said with a smile: "They went early in the morning. There are so many people. They are probably coming back soon. You guys just sit down and wait." Son, I’ll cook you two bowls of snacks.”
"Okay!" Lin Xiuqing still held her eldest son's clothes in her hands and stared at him in warning.
"Be honest with me! Otherwise, when you get home, you will take off your pants and get beaten." Ye Chenghu flattened his mouth in grievance, not daring to make any mistakes.
Ye Yaodong ignored him, held his youngest son's hand, and leisurely moved a stool to sit at the door to bask in the sun, eating melon seeds and chatting with the aunts and uncles.
It wasn't until Mother Lin called him to eat snacks that he went in, brought out the snacks, and sat at the door, holding his rice bowl and continuing to chat and eat with the villagers.
"In the middle of winter, it's still comfortable to eat and bask in the sun at the door."
"Isn't that right? When it's lunch time, we will also set up a table at the door and eat while basking in the sun."... When Father Lin came back pushing the cart, he happened to see Ye Yaodong with his legs crossed and holding a big bowl. While sucking the longevity noodles and listening to the villagers talking, he quickly quickened his pace.
"A Dong is here!" Ye Yaodong quickly bit off the noodles hanging from his mouth, swallowed them whole, and stood up.
"Dad is back. He goes to the fields early in the morning. He is so diligent."
"It's rare that the weather has been good these two days. I took the opportunity to tidy up the land and finish all the work that needs to be done. Then I can celebrate the New Year with peace of mind."
"Where's Cousin Ayuan? Where are the others?" Ye Chenghu kept looking behind Father Lin, but saw no one.
"I don't know where I went to play again. I didn't see him halfway. Why don't you go look for it yourself?"
"Okay!" He was waiting for this sentence. After saying yes, he disappeared in a whoosh. Ye Yaodong followed Lin's father into the house. He still had something to say to his father-in-law.
When Lin's father and mother heard that he had bought two shops in the city, they were so shocked that they couldn't close their jaws.
"City...city? Store?"
"I bought two...two stores in the city?" Why do they feel like their son-in-law is coaxing them to play?
"It's true. I paid all the money and got it registered. I'm not lying." The two elders looked at each other, always feeling that this was not true. When did the son-in-law become so promising?
I've already gone to the city to buy a shop, but I bought two more?
"Then... how much did you buy? Why did you buy two at once?"
"One is 3,000, and two are bought for 6,000."
"Ah? 6...6 thousand?" Father Lin's eyes were as big as a bell. Mother Lin's mouth was open so wide that she could hold an egg in her mouth, and she couldn't find her voice for a long time.
Lin Xiuqing couldn't stop laughing when she saw her parents' reaction. They were so surprised when they bought 6,000 from two stores. If they knew that A Dong had ordered a boat, they would probably jump up in shock.
"Yeah, two for six thousand." Father Lin slapped his mouth and found his voice.
"Six thousand... This boss has spent a lot of money, and he just spent it like this? He bought two at once... If you really want to buy this, just buy one. Why buy two?"
"Aren't you afraid that the two brothers won't be able to share enough in the future? Buy two, just one for each person, and you won't be afraid of fighting in the future." Mother Lin's mouth opened and closed, closed and opened again,
"Then why go to the city? It's so far away that it's inconvenient to go there. You can't even walk for a whole day, and you have to change trains several times if you take a car. You'll be delayed on the road for a whole day."
"The road is not very good now. It will get better gradually in the future. The main reason is that the location is good and we happened to meet it."
"That's too far. Ah Qing didn't stop him. He just bought it..." Lin Xiuqing spread her hands and said helplessly: "He insisted on saying that the location was good, so he killed it first and then bought it. There was nothing I could do. , I’ve already paid the money, so I can’t give it up.” After hearing this, Father Lin and Mother Lin just wanted to curse, but this is a son-in-law, not a son, so he could just open his mouth and slap his head and cover his face with scolding, not to mention that it didn’t cost them any money.
I feel so distressed that I actually spent 6,000 yuan to buy two shops. I might as well buy two jobs and go to the city to eat commercial food. I don’t have to go out to sea to fish anymore, and I can’t pay so much money.
Alas~ If it were his prodigal son, he would be beaten to death directly. Father Lin smiled awkwardly and said,
"You've already bought it, so just buy it and see if you can rent it out and earn some money." Lin Xiuqing glanced at Ye Yaodong and said honestly: "Maybe we won't be able to rent it out for a while. That market just After the construction, the surrounding area is quite desolate, and the stalls in the old market will not be moved until the New Year. The notice has been posted for a few days, but they have not been rented out yet." Father Lin and Mother Lin were instantly heartbroken, thinking that their son-in-law had become better. , their life was getting better, but they didn't expect to lose a large amount of money all of a sudden.
Father Lin frowned tightly, with distress and worry on his face.
"Why didn't you think carefully and just spent the money like this? What should you do now? Buy and buy, rent and rent..." It was Ye Yaodong's turn to come on stage.
With a smile on his face, he said hehe: "So I want to ask dad for a favor. I want you to go to the market to help me look at the shops. I plan to dry more dried fish at home and sell them in the shops in the market. There is no one who makes me more at ease than you." There is a long-term store there, and you can sell more or less. If you encounter a bad guy, you may be able to order a large number of shipments and earn more.
After all, there is no cold chain now, and fresh seafood can only be circulated in surrounding coastal towns and cannot reach inland areas.
Inland areas can only consume dry goods. Father Lin was surprised when he heard this.
"Me?" Ye Yaodong nodded,
"Yes, I really can't find the right person, and outsiders are worried. What if all my goods are taken away? The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and I have no choice. I think you can sell it in the streets. Orange, go check out a shop in the market, it should be fine."
"Uh... no, no, no, how can this be done? I'm not familiar with this place..."
"Would you like to give it a try? This is much easier than hawking on the street. All you have to do is sit there. If you don't want to, I will lose my shop. I bought it for 6,000 yuan, which is not a small amount of money."
"You also know that this is not a small amount..." Father Lin was heartbroken. He had never seen so much money in his life, and he spent it all at once. Why didn't the young man know how to feel distressed?
