His father's status is probably a little higher than that of the family dog, and a little lower than that of the poultry.
After all, dogs can't be served, but his father can be served, and poultry can be served, too, and the whole family likes it.
Ye Yaodong originally planned to save some face for his father and ask the question without breaking the casserole. Unexpectedly, his father sat behind the bicycle and muttered.
"Fortunately, the gold ingot is still there, and the ring I picked up is also saved."
"It's okay, Dad, I understand you. You just want the peace and prosperity of your family. It's okay for us grown men to give in to women."
"Yes, that is to say, I just let your mother not have the same experience as her."
"Our family is more and more prosperous because of family harmony. It's strange to see other families prospering if they are noisy every day."
Father Ye took it seriously, "I just let her go. Otherwise, we would have a small quarrel every three days, a big quarrel every five days, and even start to fight, which would be a joke for others. Our family is now a respectable person in the village."
.”
"Yes, yes, you are now a respectable and decent person in the village."
Father Ye was all smiles, "Hey, Dongzi, when will the photos taken yesterday be developed?"
"I'll ask later."
"Wash a few more pictures and leave one for me."
"I know, I'll talk about it later."
Father Ye was delighted.
"When will you follow A Guang and the others to Wen City?"
"Tomorrow, it was originally scheduled for the end of the month, but I couldn't leave yesterday for the opening on the second day of the Lunar New Year, so I postponed it for two days."
"Then after you and A Guang leave, I will sail out again."
"See for yourself."
However, he felt that his father couldn't handle it. If he left, his family would definitely complain about it, and then they would make it known that Ye's father was drinking and doing nothing at home every day.
The two of them were chatting about his departure to Vancouver while riding their bikes.
Father Ye was also a little unfavorable about his lighter factory in the greenhouse and felt that he would not be able to get enough money for long.
I just started doing it the year before last. I invested too much and didn’t have any money to share. The other party didn’t have too many ideas. Last year, I started to have money to share, and even a sum of money was shared, so I probably have some ideas.
If we get another big deal this year, we might kick him out next year.
Ye Yaodong also told his father his previous thoughts. His father thought that this was okay. Don't be too greedy. Anyway, there was no loss. Any gains were unexpected blessings. Just take care of the family.
And at least it can save some face and room for both parties, so that they can get together and disperse easily, and they can still communicate with each other in the future. The other party still owes them a big favor.
After Ye Yaodong recovered his motorcycle, he chatted with Hong Wenle for a while before riding back.
But his father was riding the bicycle alone and ended up at the end, cursing and saying that he would not ride slower and would wait a moment.
Early the next morning, he, A Guang and more than thirty boats in the village set out for Wen City. His boat took the lead and A Guang's boat took the rear.
All in all, except for those small trawlers, only A Guang's Harvest sailed over. His eldest brother, his second brother, his friend, and Zhou Da next door did not go, and they went out to sea to trawl last night.
This time the pressure was all on Ah Guang.
He just stayed there for three or four days, helped everyone submit fishing application qualifications as planned, visited various places, and left after finishing other things that needed to be done.
At this time, the advantage of having many brothers and friends was reflected, but Aguang had no brothers who could help him. This time, his familiar friends did not go to sea with him, but fortunately his father came to help.
After all, his father also had to collect rent, and he was worried that he would cause trouble if he didn't have anyone to help him.
When Ye Yaodong set out, he saw Father Pei there and was curious whether Father Pei had deposited the money in the bank, so he came out with peace of mind.
However, he was too embarrassed to ask Aguang about this matter. He was just curious, but a grown man couldn't gossip too much.
Before leaving, he also watched A Guang receive the goods normally before leaving.
Only in this way can he talk to Huimei and have an explanation when he goes back.
However, he did not take the initiative to gossip about Pei's father with Aguang, but Huimei did gossip with his mother.
When he came home, his mother was talking happily at the dinner table.
"I heard from Huimei that as soon as Lao Pei left, the old widow turned the house upside down. She searched for three or four days and found nothing."
Lin Xiuqing asked curiously: "Where is Huimei going?"
"That's not true. It was Dongqing who told her about it. She even ransacked Dongqing's room. I heard that the two of them even had a big fight."
"I just said, why did Dongqing live in Huimei's place, and she thought that Lao Pei was not at home, and she didn't want to live under the same roof as the widow, so she moved to Huimei's place."
"I heard that the money Dongqing earned from work was locked in a drawer, and the widow picked the lock and took it away, so they had a big quarrel and almost started a fight. Fortunately, the widow's unmarried daughter stopped her. I heard that Dongqing stood there.
On the other hand, she asked the widow to return the money to her. Holly also threatened that if she didn’t return the money, she would call her father and her brother and kick her out.”
Ye Yaodong had been listening with his ears pricked up, and then he thought, "It's really weird."
Mother Ye was so excited when she said this, "Isn't it true? I heard that in the first two days, I searched everywhere but didn't dare to search her house because it was locked. When I couldn't find it, I got angry and picked the lock to search her house.
house, and then plausibly said that she was not married and the money she earned should be given to the family for household expenses... She is an old shameless widow who starts acting like a monster when the man is not around."
Lin Xiuqing said: "Fortunately, the house was built a few months ago, and Huimei and the others have already separated. Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing."
"If I hadn't given birth to a son, I would have driven him away long ago."
Ye Yaodong said: "You can drive him away even if you give birth to a son. At most, you will be given alimony every month."
Ye Mu glanced at him and said, "What you said is simple. I would rather demolish a temple than ruin a marriage. What's more, we have children. How can we drive him away? Moreover, we live in two houses next door. What's the point of driving away?
significance?"
"That's true. We live next door. It doesn't matter whether we can move away or not. As long as the widow doesn't leave, no one will persuade us to break up."
How can we persuade a couple to break up if they are all trying to persuade them to make peace? Everyone can persuade a couple to make peace, and for the sake of their children, they can endure it and let it go.
"Anyway, just wait until you get married, and you don't have to worry about the household affairs. Lao Pei is a smart man and can handle the widow. I heard from Huimei that before he left, he deliberately deposited all the money in the bank, and then left the deposit slip temporarily.
In Huimei, I took away the private seal carved by your father, leaving only 100 yuan for the widow, and let the widow use it until the Chinese New Year."
Ye Yaodong's mouth twitched.
Does this count as one thing reducing one thing?
Lin Xiuqing also smiled and said: "It's quite cautious."
"Oh, listen to what Huimei said, it's better not to let the widow fall from Lao Pei's hands now. It was fine before, but Lao Pei's hands were loose, and he would give money every two days, dozens and dozens of yuan. Don't think about it now.
Well, she has to take good care of the old man in order to have money. If the old man is not at home, then she can only be tight. At most, she doesn’t have to worry about food and drink."
The old lady listened for a long time and said, "You deserve it."
Mother Ye looked at Ye Yaodong, "A large group of boats in the village have gone to Wen City. Are they not going to come back? I'll wait for you to pass by Wen City and then go to Zhou City with you?"
"That's what we discussed before, but who knows what will happen then? Isn't it just the beginning of July? There are still two months left. Maybe they make about the same amount of money and they can go back to the village to rest first. Anyway, we'll see when the time comes."
"It's rare. This time you stayed at home and a large number of them ran out. Then next year you won't need to take them with you, and they can run to Zhoushi on their own."
"Whatever, it doesn't matter, but it must be difficult in the past few years, because their boats are small, and they are not that safe without a few big ships to escort them. Identifying the direction and confirming the navigation route is a problem."
"Then we have to rely on your ship to lead the way."
Ye Yaodong shrugged his shoulders and did not answer.
"How are you doing with the 200,000 you owe? Can you pay it back this year?"
"You haven't made any money yet, what should you tell me? I'll tell you after I make enough money and get in."
"You can go up there again in the second half of the year. When you come back for the New Year, you should be able to earn enough."
"You do have quite a lot of confidence in me."
"No, we made a lot of money last year, and we will definitely make money this year too. It's best to make back all the loan money."
"Um."
Ye Yaodong: The target is too small, mother, the layout can be enlarged.
"Now that I'm back and have nothing to do, I'll take Aqingduo to visit the factory in town. I've spent so much effort and a huge price on it, so I can't ignore it."
"Now take Ah Qing over there. If you are not at home in two months, Ah Qing will be familiar with the house. She is also the boss's wife. I can also help look after the house."
Lin Xiuqing also agreed, "Yes, the money spent will be earned back. The factory in this town is extraordinary, so we have to be more careful."
"Yeah, I know. Let's take a rest tonight and go there tomorrow morning. As long as I'm at home, I'll take Ah Qing over every day to take a look."
Lin Xiuqing added: "The second sister-in-law came over two days ago and said that Ajiang's report card came out and he did not pass the high school. I want you to make arrangements for him to be sent to the fish cannery in the town to work. I said I will wait for you to come back.
Besides, since you haven’t come back, I’m not familiar with the place and can’t interfere with what’s going on there.”
Ye Yaodong nodded, "Then we will take him there together tomorrow."
His second sister-in-law had already been thinking about it a few months ago, hoping that Ye Chengjiang would not be able to pass the high school entrance examination and directly arrange to enter the factory.
But at that time, he was not sure when the factory would open, and he was also worried about agreeing directly. This kid deliberately failed the exam in order not to go to high school.
Although this probability is extremely slim, even if he doesn't fail on the exam intentionally, he won't be able to do well on the exam, but we can't give this child the chance to fail on the exam on purpose.
He only said that the factory has not yet opened for business, and he cannot guarantee when it will open. He will wait until he really fails to pass the exam.
During this time of summer vacation, several children at home also worked for him in the workshop to earn wages.
"Then I'll go over and talk to the second sister-in-law later and ask her to clean up A Jiang and come with us tomorrow."
"Um."
