Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982 - Chapter 520
Chapter 520 Reporting
There is no child who does not like the festival. Before the time comes, all the children in the village are already looking forward to it. Some even ask the elders eight times a day when is the Mid-Autumn Festival, when is the holiday, and when can we eat mooncakes?
When it really came to the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone put on new clothes and ran around happily, so happy.
Only during Chinese New Year and holidays, they have the opportunity to wear new clothes, otherwise they can only wear clothes eliminated by their brothers and sisters.
However, this year can be said to be the happiest year for the children in the family, because besides moon cakes, there are too many things to eat at home, and the children can show off with their pockets full.
The grown-ups were also beaming, making a lot of money just in time for the holidays.
Father Ye asked while peeling the crabs: “After the festival, take a day off tomorrow and go to sea tomorrow night?”
“Yes”, Ye Yaodong thought for a while and said, “Father, ask someone to keep an eye on it for me, and see where there are still boats so I can buy another one.”
Father Ye paused for a while while peeling the crab, and asked in confusion, “What’s wrong? Why do you want to buy another boat?”
Mother Ye also stopped her chopsticks, puzzled, “Isn’t there a boat? It’s good, why buy a boat? It’s already pretty good if you earn enough money to buy two shops. You earn thousands of yuan, you should put it in your pocket to warm it up!”
“No one’s child can be so troublesome. They want to buy everything, but they just can’t keep the money in their pockets. You want to spend it before it’s hot?”
Lin Xiuqing was also puzzled for a moment, but suddenly thought of the two boats of Aguang’s family, and suddenly felt blessed, “Are you going to learn from Aguang? Buy a boat and rent it out?”
Father Ye also thought of it after she reminded him, and he can’t be blamed for not thinking of it. Not long after Ah Guang bought his second boat, they went to the junction of Zhejiang and Fujian to salvage jellyfish. He didn’t know that Ah Guang bought his second boat. When you get back, take it to the rental case.
Ye’s mother probably knows a little bit, and knows that Ah Guang’s income has been good in the past two months, but she will be more stable and won’t think about it, and she doesn’t think about it for a while.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Ye Yaodong also looked over innocently, and then said honestly, “I have this idea, and I was the one who suggested his idea of letting the boat out for rent, but you have to buy the boat, and you can’t buy it.” If it arrives, I’m thinking of waiting until the end of the year to save up and book a boat.”
“Will you be too busy like this?” the old lady asked with concern.
“If you have money to earn, why don’t you come here? Anyway, if you put money in your pocket, it won’t increase. If you buy a boat and keep it to make money, you can make more money. Money makes money.”
Father Ye thought about it. He must have an opinion on buying a shop. As for the boat… This is the tool that the seaside people rely on for survival. If it can make money, of course he will not object.
He looked at Mother Ye, “How did Ah Guang earn in the past two months? How much did he earn?”
Mother Ye glared at him, “How do I know how much money he earns? Am I naive enough to ask him how much he sold every day? I heard Hui Mei say a few words, when it’s good, it can be sold for fifty or sixty, sixty. Seventy, sometimes thirty or forty.”
“As long as there is income from going to sea, it is okay, but this is also dependent on the sky. How many times you can go to sea in a month, there is no certain number…”
“That doesn’t matter. If we don’t go to sea, we don’t need to pay wages. Anyway, if we sell more, we will share more. If we sell less, we will get less. If we don’t go to sea, there will be no expenses. The ship is a big one, and it can be used for decades. Sooner or later, it will pay back.”
Speaking of this, Mother Ye also thinks it makes sense.
“Then I’ll take care of Huimei after dinner. By the way, I’d like to ask her, how much did Aguang pay for the rented boat in the past two months?”
“Okay, you can ask first. It’s okay to ask.” Father Ye looked at Ye Yaodong. You decide.”
“Okay, I happened to be at the pier when I came back two days ago, so I helped him collect the goods by the way, and I probably knew it well. But like my mother said, there is no fixed number of times to go to sea in a month. This is not easy to calculate. However, it’s just a matter of making money when you go out, it’s just a question of how much, anyway, you can always pay back slowly.”
I have seen people do it in my previous life, and if you earn money, you will earn it. As for how much you earn, it depends on your luck. You depend on the sky to live, and you live by the sea. There is no certainty for everything.
Mother Ye glanced at him, “Ask first, what’s the rush, money can’t be kept like that?”
“See what you said, I’m using my brain to make money.”
“I haven’t read the book for a few days, but my mind is quite active.”
“It means I’m smart.”
“Smart? Then you lived in the stomach of a dog for the first 26 years, why are you only now smart?”
Ye Yaodong was depressed, asking his mother to praise him a few words felt like it was worse than killing her, and he couldn’t say anything nice, it was rare to hear her praise him in front of others the day before yesterday.
And her way of praising is also very different, it belongs to the kind of proudly saying disgusting words, which makes people refute and lead others to praise him.
“Men mature late, don’t you know? What’s more, people like me, don’t everyone say that the youngest son and grandson are the lifeblood of the old lady, but I am the youngest son and the lifeblood of the whole family.”
“Do you have a big face? Return the lifeline of the whole family? Why don’t you say that you are the ancestor of the whole family? It’s just your grandma who treats grass as a treasure, otherwise you can see if I can wait until you mature, and it’s enough to not drive you out of the house.” Alright.”
“Cut~ You still have to count on me to let you enjoy yourself in the future.”
“Okay, then I’ll wait and see how lucky I will be in the future.”
The old lady looked at the mother and son bickering and shook her head, and couldn’t help saying to Ye Mu: “You have already enjoyed his blessing…”
Mother Ye pursed her mouth.
Father Ye also said: “You can’t stop your mouths with so much food, and you’re still muttering.”
He looked at Ye Mu again, “I didn’t eat two mouthfuls of rice, and I talked a lot, so I quickly ate a few mouthfuls to take care of Huimei’s mother and daughter, and I’m still chattering here.”
“Both the father and son are exhaling through one nostril now.”
“Eat yours.”
Mother Ye groaned and ate quickly with the vegetables in between. Ah Guang has no mother, and the two younger sisters are not married, so how can she change the diaper bag?
How to bathe and change diapers for children? She had to teach Huimei’s two sisters-in-law what to eat and what not to eat during confinement.
Otherwise, she can still take care of her after work. During the day, she has to go to work and has no time to stay there. She has to rely on her two sisters-in-law or Ah Guang to take care of her.
It’s not good to have no mother in this family. There are gains and losses. There are advantages and disadvantages.
Mother Ye took a quick bite, then hurried back.
Ye Yaodong looked at her busy figure, and said to Father Ye: “From now on, you can just eat at my side, anyway, Ah Qing has to cook, so I just cook for two more people by the way, mother.” It also looks quite busy, going to work during the day and taking care of my little sister after work.”
Father Ye nodded, “It’s fine. Yesterday and the day before yesterday, I took turns to eat at your elder brother’s and second brother’s house. Then I will directly bring the rice over tomorrow and eat it at your place, so as to save the rotation.”
Lin Xiuqing didn’t speak, she didn’t think there was anything wrong with Ye Yaodong’s actions, and she didn’t think he was taking jobs for her.
In her opinion, cooking is necessary every day anyway, just two extra pairs of chopsticks, not to mention that Father Ye said he brought the rice here, so it doesn’t count as eating them.
After the lively meal, the whole family sat at the door to enjoy the shade, while the children kept looking up at the sky, wondering why it wasn’t dark? Why isn’t it dark yet? Don’t be impatient.
At this moment, Mother Ye came back in a hurry, “Apeng…Ah Hua…Dongzi…broken…”
“What is broken?”
Ye Yaodong was sitting on the armchair to enjoy the shade, when he heard his mother calling the names of the three brothers through the wall, and then kept talking there that it was bad, he quickly stood up with a frown.
Mother Ye patted her thigh and said angrily: “Oh, I don’t know which **** who kills thousands of knives, but wrote a letter to report you, saying that you are smuggling.”
“What!?”
Ye Yaodong immediately walked out of the courtyard door in shock, and ran to the next door, “What are you talking about? Who reported me for smuggling, is there something wrong? I’m smuggling in front of fishermen, who is riding on horseback?”
It’s no wonder that he was suddenly frightened. This is smuggling. If he is really convicted of this crime, he will have to be imprisoned for a few years.
“Who knows? I don’t know who has a black heart and a rotten intestines. He should have his tongue chopped off, his hands and his feet thrown into the 18th floor of hell. He even wrote a letter to report that he has disappeared…” Ye Mu said angrily.
“Male Gobi, who gave birth to a son without an **** hole? Since doing such a thing that harms others and does not benefit oneself…”
“Our family didn’t offend anyone…”
Ye Yaodong frowned, “Our family didn’t offend anyone, but we can’t stand people with pink eyes, mother, how do you know? Didn’t you go to Huimei’s?”
“I went home to get eggs, and Hui Mei’s family ran out of eggs. I said I would send them to her today, but I kept forgetting. On the way back, I happened to meet Secretary Chen. He told me.”
Mother Ye said the word ‘Secretary Chen’ in a low voice, and when she said it, she glanced at the neighbor who was approaching them not far away.
Ye Yaopeng frowned and said, “Is it because we brought back a lot of goods and sold them at our door?”
Ye Yaohua also raised his heart, “Who is this bothering? You even went to report us. Was it someone from our village who reported it?”
Ye Yaodong said: “It should be anonymous, right? Was the letter intercepted? That’s why I was seen and told you by the way?”
Mother Ye was stunned for a moment, she didn’t ask so carefully, and ran back anxiously after hearing it.
“I forgot to ask if it was intercepted.”
Just now I heard Mother Ye’s hurried voice, as if something was wrong, and vaguely heard the word “report”, the neighbors also came over curiously and asked, “What happened?”
“I seem to have heard some report just now?”
“Who reported what? It’s been years, and it has been stable for several years, and there are still people reporting? Isn’t it human?”
The name of the previous chapter was wrong, and it has been corrected.
