Chapter 750 The Old Lady’s Worries
Lin Xiuqing had heard Ye Yaodong talk about cameras several times, so she wasn't too surprised to see him come back with a camera.
I don’t know why, but she actually thought he was frugal and only bought one camera? He didn't even carry the refrigerator and TV back together!
Suddenly I felt a little relieved and made progress...
When he took the two umbrellas off the board, she thought he was so smart that he even knew how to buy two umbrellas!
As Mrs. Ye pushed her bicycle home, she was still thinking to herself, "I don't know how to buy a sewing machine..."
"What are you talking about? I can only buy what you use, but you can't buy the one I like?"
"How can a bicycle be as practical as a sewing machine..."
Others didn't care, and the two couples quarreled.
Father Ye moved all their things to their own door, then returned to Dongzi's house and let them quarrel.
Staying here and there, it's more comfortable to stay at Dongzi's house.
And Second Sister-in-law Ye didn't know if she was listening to the quarrel next to her, but she felt that her man was a little smarter, and he even knew how to buy a sewing machine for her to use.
At first I just accepted it reluctantly, but when I heard the quarrel next door, I felt a little happy.
This person is afraid of comparison.
It’s not necessary to look at other people’s misfortunes, but when other people’s houses are in bad condition, you will always feel more pleasing to the eye when you look at the people and things in your own house.
Lin Xiuqing held two umbrellas and wondered, "How much do these two umbrellas cost? I heard that the cheapest nylon umbrella on the market costs eight or nine yuan."
"They were selling them for 6 yuan each, so I bought two."
"That's okay, much cheaper than on the market."
"Well, put it away first."
Lin Xiuqing took down the basket hanging on the wall and hung the umbrella on it.
"Dongzi, let's sail the boat in the morning. Is it going well?" the old lady asked with concern.
"It went smoothly. It went very smoothly. After they got to work, they signed a document and paid the money to sail. It just took a while to buy things."
"That's good, that's good. It's good that you're not being embarrassed. It's not easy for officials to talk."
"Don't worry, you don't look at the monk's face to look at the Buddha's face. But what you said is right. Some officials are really not easy to talk to. I thought that when the day after tomorrow comes, I will also take a few cakes to the border defense station to give them away. It's a gift to some extent, as I originally had a boat, and I got it from them."
This was sent to the new ship on the day when the firecrackers were set off. It was well-known, honest, and would not be gossiped about, and the recipients would be happy with it.
He doesn't seek to build a good relationship, he just seeks to become familiar with each other and maintain a simple relationship without letting others work in vain.
Although Director Chen spoke, Director Chen was the one who did the talking. He was the one doing the work. Both parties had to thank him. The one who was closer should be thanked first. Director Chen was a little further away. I would like to thank him properly when I have the opportunity in the future.
The old lady smiled and narrowed her eyes, "Hey, yes, you are right to do this. You must also send some cakes to the leaders of the border station. This is a happy event, and the meaning is good. It is high-spirited, and people will be happy to receive it."
Father Ye also agreed, "We have to do it this way. It also shows that we are sensible. When your mother comes over, tell her to order two more plates of hair cake."
"Ah, by the way, where's mom? She's probably off work at this time, right?"
Lin Xiuqing laughed when he heard him talking about his mother, "Mom, I don't know how many times I came back all morning. She walked back and forth without feeling tired. When I came over, I asked you if you were back?"
Ye Yaodong smiled happily, "She probably wants to ask me if the ship has returned."
"Hehehe~"
"When we just docked, we met several small wooden boats nearby and they docked together. Everyone saw me driving another boat back, and they all knew that this was my boat again. I have three boats, and I guess they are all by now. If we go to the village, the noise must have started."
Lin Xiuqing couldn't stop laughing, "That mother probably won't be back at noon."
"Maybe. I might come back when I feel thirsty."
Father Ye also laughed, "I've been holding it in all night and all morning. I guess it's broken. I have to let her go out and talk. It also makes her happy. Your mother has also worked hard for half her life. When she gets old, it's a good thing." It’s all worth it.”
"I don't care about her, she just likes to talk. Anyway, as long as I make her happy, she'll be happy."
He was also happy to be able to make his mother go from being disgusted with him to being proud of him.
Lin Xiuqing saw that he was holding a camera in his hand and said with a smile, "Why don't you take it apart and take a look?"
Ye Yaodong couldn't put it down and kept turning it over. "Now is not the time. I'm afraid that I won't be able to take care of anything while studying. I just asked Ah Cai to leave a few bowls of seafood. I have to go to the pier to get them. You can prepare a few more bowls, like Those dry goods, a bowl of fried eels, fried eggs with shrimps, and fried mussels with celery, I invited a few friends to come over for dinner."
"Then I didn't cook too much..."
"It doesn't matter, the food doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if you eat less. They are all here to drink. I guess by the time you finish cooking, they will have finished eating at home."
"Hey, okay."
Ye Yaodong looked at the camera dearly for a while, then smiled at the old lady and said, "Wait while I take a flight to study how to take pictures, and I will take a few pictures for you every day."
The old lady was so happy to coax him, "Why are you taking pictures? I'm already old. This is what you young people should do. I don't want to join in the fun, so you don't need to take pictures for me. You can take more good-looking ones. I Save it for you.”
"Don't be afraid. I bought two rolls of film and I won't be able to use them all."
"Then you have to save some money. These foreign things are very expensive."
"Hey, I'll take it into the house first and then study it when I have my hands free."
"Sit down and rest for a while, and let your father ride to the pier to get it."
Father Ye frowned. The father and son came in and out at the same time, so they told Dongzi to rest and run errands!
He cursed, glanced at the old lady, and didn't say anything. He was used to it anyway.
"Let me go. I'll ride my bike to the pier to get it while you study your camera."
"OK."
He didn't want to leave, he just wanted to rest.
Lin Xiuqing also started to cook two more dishes. She asked, "Shall we give you a cake the day after tomorrow?"
Ye Yaodong fiddled with the camera, looked at it for a few times and then put it aside. Then he read the manual and said nonchalantly: "Otherwise, add two packs of cigarettes to make it look better."
"It's good like this. It doesn't cost much. We've already saved hundreds on buying the boat. We should be more generous here. It will look good when others receive it."
"Hmm, let's give both directors a bottle of Maotai. It won't cost much to add two cigarettes. The leader's gift must be heavy."
"It's several dozen..." Lin Xiuqing hesitated, "That's okay, we've made money anyway."
"Yeah, there's still money to be made in the future, and you'll get something if you give up."
The old lady said from the side: "If your eldest and second brothers sail your ship next time, they will also be able to take advantage of you. If you need to hire someone, you can also hire your own cousins. The brothers can help you." Just pull it out.”
Ye Yaodong looked up at the old lady's serious face and said with a smile: "I know, this was the original plan. How can outsiders trust my family."
"Your second cousin will be back soon..."
"I know. When the time comes, I'll ask him to work for me. Working for us is better than working for outsiders anyway. We won't underpay or default on wages."
"Hey, okay, I'm afraid that he has just been released from prison and won't be able to find a job, and people will find out and dislike him. Alas...he is also in trouble. He doesn't know anything. He was deceived by Hong and encouraged by your uncle. He is so confused. So I followed him and went in. When I come back this time, I must tell him to be a good person, be down-to-earth, and not be deceived again."
In fact, his second cousin is not innocent, because in his previous life, he was indeed quite rich thanks to the help of his first cousin.
His character is just like this, so-so, he does whatever he is told to do anyway, he is obedient and doesn't use his brain.
Anyway, he felt that Brother Asheng and his aunt's cousins were very good and reliable. When the time came, the brothers would discuss how to call someone. One more would not be too much, and one less would not be too much.
It's hard for the old lady to still worry about this at her old age. Although the palm of her hand is flesh, the skin on the back of her hand is also her own.
"Don't worry about it. Once you're old enough, just enjoy the blessings. Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings."
"I think so too, but none of them are as worry-free and promising as you. Even at such an age, you have someone to worry about behind you. Your second uncle's family is also in a lot of rags. Fortunately, I follow you. If you live, you don’t have to worry about your second uncle’s family.”
When Lin Xiuqing heard the old lady say that he was worry-free, she turned around and glanced, thinking in her heart: My grandson!
"Well, don't worry, just follow me and enjoy the happiness."
"Hahaha, I will follow you to enjoy the blessings and great blessings."
They were talking in the main room, but there were screams from inside the door.
Ye Yaodong quickly put the camera on the table and went into the house to hug the child, but he was too impatient. As soon as he pushed the door in, he slapped the child behind the door...
"Ah! Ooooooooooooooooooooooooo~"
"Ah! It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt... I was wrong, I was wrong, my hand was too fast..."
Ye Xiaoxi was slapped until he sat leaning against the wall and cried loudly. He refused to let him get closer and even slapped him, "Harm! Harm! Mother~"
When Lin Xiuqing heard the crying, she quickly ran over to hug the child and complained that he would not push it slowly when he pushed the door in.
"I didn't know she was at the door!"
"Where would she stand if she didn't stand behind the door? She didn't cry when she got up, but you made her cry."
"Don't cry, don't cry..."
The big tears kept falling down, which made him feel very distressed.
"Harm, harm ~ wow wow ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
"Well……"
Ye Xiaoxi still had tears on her face, her eyes were red and she was babbling a lot at him. He felt like she was scolding him!
There is another one at the back, about 12:30 to 1:00
