Come to the door
No matter how Ye's father and Ye's mother tried to persuade him to stay, Secretary Chen's family insisted on going home to eat, so they didn't force it. The recent construction of the house had consumed a lot of rice and grain, so it would be better to save a little.
After Secretary Chen and his family left, the room became noisy. A bunch of ignorant children, who didn't care about adults' business, stretched their necks and looked at the noodles, tea cakes and canned oranges in the basket.
They had eaten noodles, tea cakes, and they were so sweet that they filled their mouths with one bite. They had no chance to eat canned oranges. Their family was poor, and their parents were not willing to buy canned food for them.
Ye Yaodong patted the two eldest nephews on the head, "Stop your saliva and eat."
Ye Chenghai tilted his head and asked him: "Uncle Third, can we have noodles, tea cakes and canned food after dinner?"
"I'm full, can you still eat?"
A group of children nodded wildly and said in unison, "Of course I can eat it."
"Then eat it!"
He didn't think there was anything strange about it. Since he wanted to eat it, let's share it together after the meal. Mother Ye disagreed and glared at him, "Canned food is so expensive. Don't let the children ruin it. Put it away first."
Get up, wait until August 15th in two months, it will be time to give out the Christmas gifts, you can join in and make the gifts look better."
If not for the fear that it would expire during the Chinese New Year, Ye Mu would have waited until the Chinese New Year to give it away, which would make it more beautiful and more respectable.
Ye Chenghu looked at it eagerly and said weakly: "Dad... I want to eat canned food..."
"Grandma refuses!"
He spread his hands and saw that the food was in his mother's hands, but there was nothing he could do about it. He really wanted to give it to the children.
Mother Ye poked Ye Chenghu's forehead with her index finger, "Eat, eat, eat, I want to eat everything. It's time to eat, no one is allowed to eat, I have to keep this for gifts."
She locked all the cans, cigarettes and wine in the cabinet, leaving only noodles and tea cakes on the table. "After dinner, I'll give you some noodles and tea cakes to eat. I'll ask about the cigarettes and wine later to see if I can exchange money."
, we can’t afford such expensive tobacco and alcohol.”
Everyone had no objections. Sister-in-law Ye and Second Sister-in-law Ye were relieved after hearing this. They thought Mother Ye would give all these gifts directly to the third room. After all, it was Ye Yaodong who saved her.
But what they didn't expect was that Mother Ye had just taken the things to the town to exchange for money, and when it was dark and everyone had returned to the house, she secretly went to Ye Yaodong's house and handed the money from the sale to Lin Xiuqing.
.
She was afraid that she would not have time to work during the day, so after eating, she hurried to a big store in the town to change money. She walked back and forth for two hours, and it was completely dark when she came back.
Lin Xiuqing was surprised when she saw the money in Ye's mother's hand, "Why did mother give it to me?"
Mother Ye said in a low voice: "Shh, originally people came to thank Dongzi, and all the things should be handed over to you for collection. I just thought that if everyone is here, if I give them to you, some people will feel uncomfortable.
Already."
"But, we haven't separated yet, these things..."
"The families haven't been separated yet, but don't each family keep their own money? They are here to thank Dongzi, not the two old people like us, and the things are all for him. You can take it.
, Your father and I have worked hard all our lives, just for you guys. Whatever you do with your money, it belongs to whoever deserves it."
Ye Yaodong pursed his lips and looked on, thinking that his mother was quite smart, and rural women were also wise and knew how to balance the family.
"Keep it, after the house is built, you will still have a lot of money to spend." After putting the money into Lin Xiuqing's hand, she looked at Ye Yaodong and couldn't help but said, "Be more diligent in the future and don't idle around all day.
Stop fooling around with your friends..."
"Hey? What do you call fooling around? Who doesn't have a few friends? Mom, you have a group of friends who call you to go fishing every day."
"I told you, but you talked back. My friends always ask me to do serious things, but your friends ask you to play and drink every day."
"No, didn't I catch eels yesterday afternoon? You ate them all. Didn't you go fishing some time ago? We just divided a few hundred yuan and you forgot about it? Also, didn't they also go to our house?
Then help with the work? We don’t play and drink every day.”
Ye's native language is blocked...
When the second-rate man became serious, how could he talk to her when he was told to do so?
She glared at him and said, "Get up early and start working tomorrow!"
"knew."
After Ye Mu left, Lin Xiuqing counted the money in her hand. "My mother said that Moutai sells for 12 yuan a bottle and Zhonghua sells it for 1 yuan per pack. She said recycling is a little cheaper than the selling price."
"It's normal. One goes in and one goes out. People also want to make money, otherwise why would they recycle it?"
"Well, I'll keep it then." She was still very happy to get a free income. In recent days, she has been collecting money more frequently!
"Go to bed, I have to get up early to work tomorrow."
"Are you quite interested?"
"What else? That's not my house?"
When building a house in the summer, sweat drips like water, and clothes are so wet that they can squeeze out water. Apart from being a little lonely, running on a big boat is not as hard as moving or picking stones.
As soon as Ye Yaodong finished picking up the load of stones, he sat down to take a sip of tea and rest. He touched his sore shoulders and simply took off his wet shirt, only to see that his shoulders were red from being crushed by the pole.
He couldn't help but give himself a handful of tears of sympathy. God threw him back to 25 years old, so he wanted him to make up for all the pain he had lost when he was young, right?
Lin Xiuqing happened to push the ash cart over and saw it. She whispered, "I'll get you some tea oil and rub it on it tonight and you'll be fine."
He raised his eyebrows and was about to say something, when he saw Lin Jishang in his memory leading two unfamiliar middle-aged men, swaggering towards the house they were building.
"Is Uncle Ye here? Is this the house of Uncle Ye's family?"
Secretary Chen only reminded me yesterday, but I didn’t expect it to come so soon.
Ye Yaodong frowned and stood up, swung his coat on his shoulders, walked up to them, looked down at them and said, "Lin Jishang? What are you doing?"
The three of them took a step back in unison, and couldn't help but cursed in their hearts, "You mean it, right? You're so tall, so impressive?"
"Haha, I want to talk to Uncle Ye San about something."
"You can tell me if you have anything to do!"
At this time, Ye Yaohua also saw the movement and came over, "What's wrong, A Dong?"
Lin Jishang?
He immediately thought of what Secretary Chen reminded him last night. They wanted to buy this foundation?
"They are looking for our father." After speaking, Ye Yaodong turned to look at the three of them. "The house built here is for our three brothers. If you have anything to say, just tell us. Don't delay our work."
"It's like this. My cousin wants to buy your land and would like to discuss it with you."
Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes, "Didn't you see that our foundation has been laid? We have hired so many workers and transported so much stone and loess. If you say we will sell it to you, we will sell it to you? What about our work during this period?
Isn’t the work in vain?”
How much sweat did he sweat while carrying load after load of stones?
Without adding more money or giving some benefits, I just said that I wanted to buy it. What do you want to do?
