Chapter 334 Relaxed

Aunt Mei is very happy today.

Although it was not long after the Chinese New Year.

But Ye Sihai was away for half a month, and the house became quiet.

I was used to the lively atmosphere before and after the New Year, and it was a bit disappointing to suddenly become quiet.

Now that a few teenagers have come, the atmosphere has returned.

"It's time to eat."

Aunt Mei was smiling as she served the dishes.

"Go get your own bowls and chopsticks, and if you want to drink, go get your own drinks."

Liu Xiaoer was the most capable:

"Aunt, please sit down, let Wang He serve, Cheng Jiashu, you go get the chopsticks."

"Why don't you go? Shui Yi, you go."

Shui Yi shook her head:

"I'm going to get a drink, what do you want to drink, A'mo?"

A'mo shook his head:

"I don't want to drink."

Amid the noise, the table was soon filled with food.

Liu Hanhan was still eating alone with a bowl.

The last thing served was the soup that the mother-in-law had stewed for Ye Sihai.

"Wow, it smells so good!"

"Brother Sihai, is there no soup for us?"

"It smells so good, what is it made of?"

"I haven't eaten abalone for a long time, is this a soft-boiled abalone?"

"Brother Sihai, can I have it?"

"You're not eating shit, I'm so greedy, my mom doesn't allow me to eat it, this is specially cooked for my brother-in-law."

Ye Sihai smiled and served himself a bowl, then picked up the soup spoon:

"Don't worry, everyone has a share."

He served a bowl to Aunt Mei first:

"Wanwan, you drink with your mother."

Then he handed the spoon to A'mo:

"Give them a bowl, drink it while it's hot, don't waste it."

A'mo said, and reluctantly gave the soup to his friends.

Liu Xiaoer was the first to hand over the bowl, but he said embarrassedly:

"Just a little bit is enough, there are so many of us, leave more for Brother Sihai."

Seeing that Ah Mo really gave him some, he became anxious again and protested directly:

"Boss, there is still such a big can, who can drink this? Give me some more."

Ah Mo wanted to smash the soup spoon on Liu Xiaoer's head.

This little brother who is full of rebelliousness can't be kept.

With this guy around, his presence in front of his brother-in-law has been seriously affected.

After serving Liu Xiaoer half a bowl for several people, Ah Mo served himself a bowl and scooped an extra abalone.

This sea cucumber and mutton soup, sea cucumber, mutton, and fish glue are all stewed and turned into a thick soup.

Only the abalone is still intact.

Ye Sihai drank a bowl and felt that he couldn't get enough.

It's really delicious.

I have to say that he still knows what his mother-in-law's cooking skills are like.

This was probably cooked by the eldest sister-in-law of the Lin family.

Everyone drank a bowl of rice and then started to eat the dishes on the table.

Wang He picked up a piece of roast goose and looked nostalgic:

"Roast goose is still delicious. We haven't eaten it for a long time."

Aunt Mei couldn't help laughing:

"You guys, how long has it been since the New Year? Haven't you eaten enough meat and fish?"

Cheng Jiashu took a bite of the roast goose and looked satisfied:

"Aunt, your family's food is the best anyway. What do we eat every day? Oh, don't mention it."

Aunt Mei looked at the teenagers with a distressed face.

Every household must have enough food and drink.

But she also knew that it was impossible to cook like her family.

During this period, the construction site of the old town started, and the mother of Liu Xiaoer and his friends set up a canteen. The extra food every day was given to the family.

In fact, the food in the canteen is far beyond ordinary life.

For so many years, who doesn't eat good food during the New Year and other festivals?

Usually, there are salted fish in the morning and evening, and all kinds of rotten fish and shrimp that can't be sold at noon.

"Brother Sihai, do you want to go to the sea tomorrow?"

Ye Sihai was stunned and smiled:

"There is nothing good in the early spring, just some clams and oysters."

"There will be a high tide in two days, why don't we go and have a look?"

"Yes, the day before yesterday, my third aunt was lucky when she was catching oysters. She got several blue crabs, all weighing half a catty."

"Only half a catty? But it's not bad to have half a catty of blue crabs in the early spring."

Ye Sihai asked while gnawing on the roast goose neck:

"Let's talk about your grades first, don't think about going to the sea, I have said in advance, whoever lags behind in grades will be expelled from the Sihai team!"

"Ah??"

All the teenagers wilted.

Only Ah-mo was the most proud:

"When they took the exam at the beginning of the term, they all failed, but I scored more than 80 points."

Liu Xiaoer said angrily:

"Boss, why didn't you say that you copied others' work?"

"Bullshit, when did I copy?"

Several teenagers said in unison:

"You said it yourself."

Ah-mo...!

Ye Sihai almost laughed like a pig:

"Hahaha!!"

Several boys started to expose each other's shortcomings and made all kinds of small reports.

The atmosphere of dinner was so cheerful that it was hard to describe it.

After dinner, Aunt Mei cleaned the table, and Ye Sihai played games with a few guys.

It was about 10:30 in the evening when the teenagers reluctantly left the Ye family.

Ye Sihai seemed to feel that he hadn't been so relaxed for a long time.

It was really strange.

Isn't it just half a month away?

Why do I have the illusion that it has been a long time?

It was already dark, and Uncle Mei hadn't come back yet.

After Aunt Mei finished cleaning the kitchen, she looked a little angry:

"Sihai, call that old guy and ask him to come back."

Ye Sihai said haha:

"Mom, don't worry about it. What's there to worry about? Dad has a sense of proportion."

Wanwan came over in a daze:

"Mom, go to sleep."

Aunt Mei had no choice but to pick up Wanwan and said to Ye Sihai:

"If you have nothing to say to him, I'm always worried that he will drink too much and make random promises. It's a trivial matter to make people laugh. If he causes some trouble, it won't be good."

Ye Sihai suddenly became alert:

"Mom, is there something you are hiding from me?"

Aunt Mei held Wanwan in her arms, hesitated for a moment, and then said angrily:

"You are just too kind to those people in the old town. Some people don't know how to be grateful at all."

Ye Sihai chuckled:

"Are they all people who came back from outside?"

Aunt Mei sighed:

"No, the family got a large amount of money from you, and they all came back to ask for the money. There are several families. Before the children got the money, they were extremely filial. They defrauded the money and left immediately. Now they are angry. Several, some of them gambled away their money!”

Ye Sihai was also speechless.

Gu Zhiqiang took part in a wave of gambling during the Chinese New Year.

It did get rid of the gambling culture in the town.

But those young people outside may not all be doing well, and they grew up under the influence of this kind of atmosphere.

The people of Fujian carry the gambling gene in their bones.

Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to take root in Southeast Asia and North America.

Aunt Mei didn't say it so directly, but Ye Sihai understood it.

Many elderly people may have lost more than half of their money to their children.

Some are even gone.

They seemed to be thinking that they had promised to build nursing homes anyway.

So, what do parents and elders do with money?

I guess there are many people who ask Uncle Mei to borrow money privately, right?

This matter really needs to be taken seriously.

The heart is separated from the belly.

I have to have a chat with Gu Zhiqiang tomorrow.

Ye Sihai didn't want to do bad things with good intentions.

I don’t even want to become someone else’s victim.
