Chapter 940 The Taste of Home (Add One More to the Leader of the Moonlight Soda Water)
"Uncle Zheng is joking, why do you need to rely on us? You have a big boat of your own, which is beyond our reach."
"Don't be kidding, you have so many boats in your hands, let me just count them..."
"You make me feel ashamed when you say this. In front of you old-timers, I am just a ball..."
Aguang also smiled and said: "Okay, okay, say this in front of me, among the people standing here, I am the best. It all depends on having a good father."
"You are lucky!"
"Can I have your life? Xianyudong is the first person blessed by Mazu."
"Hahahaha, stop bragging, stop bragging... I am just lucky, and you are not bad either..."
After everyone distributed the money, their pockets were bulging and their faces were full of smiles, and they were not in a hurry to leave.
Just come to the door, take money, and leave after taking the money. It seems too eager and ugly.
After exchanging daily business blows, everyone said goodbye with satisfaction.
Ye Yaodong put his hands in his pockets, grabbed a lot of money in his pockets, and couldn't help but whistle.
Father Ye looked at his proud look, but he didn't hurt him. After all, today was indeed a happy day. It was a good day to count money.
Ye Yaohua didn't close his mouth all the way. He had to say hello to everyone he saw. He felt that if he didn't say something, he couldn't reflect his excitement.
But everyone is thinking about getting a piece of the pie.
"Ah Dong, you are still going next year, right? We will go with you next year..."
"Yes, please bring us with you next year..."
"Will you be a boatman?"
"They took me with them to fish together. I want to sail a boat. I can't earn much as a worker. How can I earn as much as if I own a boat? They go out and come back and each one of them has a household worth ten thousand yuan. When will it be ten thousand yuan?" Every household is like cabbage, one batch will be wholesaled every two months..."
"You don't even have a boat, but you are still sailing. What nonsense are you talking about?" said the person next to me.
"I can buy it. I can borrow money to buy it first. They've made a lot of money from their trip this year. Are they still worried that they won't be able to make enough money to pay for the boat?"
I just came back in the afternoon, and by evening, everyone was already thinking about following next year.
Everyone was eager to book a boat immediately.
Ye Yaodong just said, "Let's talk about it next year," and left directly. The people behind him kept talking about it, and their enthusiasm remained undiminished, and they were not affected at all.
Along the way, everyone I met asked questions, either asking him how much money he earned, or asking him if he would go back next year. Take them with you.
He completely dropped "I'll see you next year" and didn't stop.
His father and second brother met someone they knew and talked to them, and even stopped to say hello. However, he only said that he had something to do and left first, without stopping at all, and reminded his second brother to go back early.
These small talk are meaningless, they are all flattering and asking for help.
Who knows when the nonsense will end, and he needs to take a lot of money home first to avoid losing it.
Without taking a lot of money home first, his second brother said on the way that the money was too much, and he was so happy that he was a little carried away.
Ye Yaodong hurried home. There were still a lot of children in front of his house, noisy and noisy. The smiles on their faces were brighter than the stars in the sky. For them, today was really happier than the New Year.
When the children saw him, they immediately gathered around him.
"Third uncle..."
"Third uncle...third uncle..."
"Dad, wait a minute..."
"What are you doing?" Ye Yaodong was surrounded and couldn't move.
"Can we go skating in the workshop tomorrow! The ground here is not flat, so we can't skate. Only your workshop is big and the ground is flat, so we can skate."
"Is the fish dried in the workshop?"
"Let's just stand in the corner and hold on to the wall, and we can walk around for a while. We don't know how to slip. We have to learn first. We will definitely not touch your dried fish."
"Yes, yes, we just walked on the wall. We were playing in your yard for a while, and the third aunt came back with the chickens and ducks and kicked us out. She felt that there were so many of us too noisy."
"We promise not to knock over your dried fish!"
"Then I'll ask your third aunt when I get back when the fish will be dried and how it's dried. It's already dark today, so you can play again tomorrow."
"Not now?"
"Why are you anxious? I have received so many gifts today. Can you come over and play? Take the skates home first and play with them tomorrow. Play with other things in the evening first. You will go home and sleep soon."
"All right."
"Let's take a walk and look at my car. It's so cool and cool..."
"Me too, let's play with cars..."
The children beside me started chattering excitedly again, and soon they all ran to the open space next to them to play.
After no one blocked the way, Ye Yaodong went straight home.
Just as he entered the courtyard, he smelled the strong smell of chicken soup. He had smelled it before when he was at the door, but the smell of seawater was also strong on the tip of his nose. He didn't think much about it. He just thought someone had stewed chicken.
The old lady was sitting in front of the TV in the main room watching TV.
"Where's Ah Qing? Why are you stewing chicken again?"
He looked around and then at the door of the room, but saw no one.
The old lady stood up quickly when she saw him coming back, "She took the clothes you brought back to the river to wash them, but she hasn't come back yet."
"Why are you so anxious? It's already dark and you're running out to wash clothes. You can wash them in time tomorrow. I haven't even taken a shower at night. She'll have to wash them again later."
"She can't sit still. She should be back in a while. After packing up, killing the chickens, and catching the ducks, she went out to do the laundry. You go take a shower first. You've been tired for a day. You can eat the chicken after you take a shower. .”
She took the basin from the washstand and was about to fill it with hot water for him.
Ye Yaodong took the basin and said, "I'll do it myself. You watch your TV and stop working."
The old lady didn't force herself, she just raised her head and said with a smile: "I've been away for two months this time. It's been too hard. I can't eat or sleep well outside. It looks like I've lost a lot of weight. I just have to catch up at night." It's easy to catch the chickens and ducks in the chicken coop."
"I'll stew a chicken tonight, and I'll stew a duck tomorrow night. I've just come back, so I'll rest at home for the next few days and recuperate. Don't rush to work."
"I've earned so much money that I won't be able to use it all in my life. Stop working so hard and rest more at home. I've also hired so many children to work, so just let them work. Those children are also hard-working and will be fine. Qian Ye comes here every day to cut a load of firewood."
Ye Yaodong nodded in agreement while ladling hot water.
It’s impossible that you won’t be able to use it all in your lifetime. It’s only tens of thousands of dollars. It’s so much now. In a few years, it will be so huge that it will scare anyone to death.
However, he still had to think carefully about what to do with the money, otherwise he would really have to lose his money. He would discuss it with Ah Qing later.
The old lady kept chattering beside him, and he took water to the back door to take a shower. He took off his clothes and pants, and the old lady stood by the door and watched him talk.
"Stop nagging, I know it. You go watch your TV, I'm going to take a shower."
"Oh, okay, okay, I don't want to look at it. I was the one who gave you a bath when you were a child. You were still little and skinny..."
Ye Yaodong looked at her back helplessly.
When people get old, they like to talk about ancient times. They all go back to the house and continue to chatter a few words.
He had been on the boat all day today. He didn't do anything, and he wasn't actually dirty. He just walked all the way back after landing and sweated a little in the sun, so he didn't take a shower as soon as he came back.
He just dabbed it with soap a few times, rinsed it off and it was done.
The old lady was not idle after entering the house. As soon as the lid of the pot was opened, the rich and tangy aroma of chicken soup spread throughout the house and spread to the front and back of the house through the doors and windows.
Ye Yaodong was not very full at first, so he walked back and forth for a while. Now he felt a little greedy when he smelled the smell, and missed it very much. This is the taste of home.
By the time he came into the house after taking a shower, the old lady had already scooped out a large bowl of chicken soup and put it on the table, with the chicken on top.
"Come on, come on, eat it while it's hot. I don't know where your father died. He went out together and didn't say to come back. I have to send it to him later. It's so troublesome."
"He is on the road with his second brother, chatting with others. I don't know if he will come over later. If not, I will just finish eating and send it to him."
"I'm not active in eating, and I have to be sent over... You eat first, don't worry about him..."
Well, he is a biological grandson, and a son is useless.
"If you kill the duck tomorrow, will you kill the goose the day after tomorrow? The goose has been raised for more than half a year. It is quite big. It weighs twenty kilograms. One can hold four chickens. In the past two days, one or two have started laying eggs. I'll boil goose eggs for you tomorrow morning..."
"I picked up all those newborn eggs. The newborn eggs are the most satisfying..."
"No, just kill the chickens and ducks. Just keep the geese. How can we eat so many? Keep them for a few more months and then kill them at the winter solstice."
"There are a lot of them. We have raised a lot of chickens, ducks and geese this year. Don't worry, you can eat them. They were originally raised to supplement the food for you and your children."
"Keep it, you can drink some chicken soup too."
"I won't drink, I will eat fast, and I will have to recite sutras to the Bodhisattva later."
"Why do you want to eat fast? I gave you dentures just to eat meat, and you still eat fast. Being vegetarian is not good for your health."
"When you leave, I will become a vegetarian. I will eat meat again after fulfilling my vow tomorrow."
"Fine."
