Return to the small fishing village of 1982

Chapter 2 How much did the large yellow croaker cost?

It's really not easy to talk about this matter. When the old man had a funeral two years ago, the neighbors all came to help, but they all knew how they divided the inheritance.

It has been two years since the division was completed, and there has been no objection for such a long time. Now that Father Ye has made a lot of money, he suddenly jumps out. It does not sound good to say it out loud.

If Father Ye and Mother are willing to share some of their money, then no one else can do anything about it. If they are not willing, it is really hard for them to say that they want to share the money in front of outsiders.

Uncle Ye and Uncle Ye were about to leave, but Ye Yaodong didn't stop them and just let them go. .

Regardless of whether they would come again, he would not be afraid if they came again.

If his father doesn't nod, can they still dig it out from their house?

Even if his father agrees, the three brothers are still not happy!

Why?

Seeing the excitement, the neighbors all dispersed. Ye Yaodong clapped his hands and said to his father and the rest of the family, "Okay, let's go back to the house!"

But as soon as he lifted his leg, a little carrot-head staggered over and hugged his thigh, showing his two millet teeth and sweetly shouting: "Dad, hug!"

When his father and the others were arguing just now, the women in the family took their younger children back to the house to avoid being frightened.

When the movement moved to the door, they also came out with their children.

Looking at such a cute and tender little boy, Ye Yaodong didn't associate him with his dark-skinned second son in his previous life.

I pinched his little face, picked him up, carried him in my arms and carried him into the house. He hadn't even had breakfast yet.

He slept until three o'clock in the morning before getting up for breakfast. There was no one else in the house except him!

The whole family is also used to it. Ye Yaodong was spoiled by the old lady, so he couldn't carry his shoulders or lift his hands. He didn't do anything and just played around all day long.

It's also a pity that he didn't work hard, he has thin skin and tender flesh, and he doesn't look like someone from the seaside at all, so he can claim a kinship based on his reputation.

Otherwise, being so lazy is still a second-rate thing, but no woman would marry him.

As soon as he stepped across the threshold, Ye Yaodong saw a beautiful woman with short hair walking towards him, "Here, son, go and eat. The food is hot in the pot."

He was calm and his attitude couldn't be described as enthusiastic, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

This is his wife, Lin Xiuqing, who is the same age as him and from the next town.

Because everyone from far and wide knew that he was idle and did not work. When he was 20 years old, his parents were afraid that he could not find a wife nearby, so they asked others to introduce him to one farther away.

They met once during a blind date, and his wife really took a liking to him and agreed immediately. However, not long after they got married, she also discovered his true face...

He's just a lazy second-rate guy...

Originally, Lin Xiuqing was full of joy when she first got married. Gradually, she became more and more disappointed with him, but she did not get divorced. Divorce was a very shameful thing these days.

Some women never think about divorce no matter how beaten or scolded they are by their husbands.

It seems to be a common problem that if the women in the family are disobedient, they will be beaten.

Fortunately, he doesn't beat his wife, he's just lazy and doesn't do serious things. If she is more diligent, her life can go on.

Because of this, his wife has supported him for 30 years without any complaints...

When I was 50 years old, I got intestinal cancer. I had no money for treatment and died at a young age.

When she was sick and lying helpless on the hospital bed, he was very flustered. When she was gone, he was completely at a loss.

The whole family was supported by her, and when she was gone, he was shocked to realize that his world was dark, but he still had to live his life.

Because of this, he started working to earn money at the age of 50. Although he had never done any work, he was from the seaside, and his family members all worked at sea, so it was no problem to hire someone to work as a boatman on a large ship.

Unexpectedly, he could not escape the fate of being short-lived after only ten years.

However, I wonder if he had accumulated good deeds in his previous life and could actually start over?

After so long, he had somewhat forgotten what his wife looked like. Hearing her faint words now, he felt uncomfortable and stared at her for a long time.

She frowned and said, "Why are you standing there in a daze? Give me the child."

"Uh...it's okay. I'll hold you. Have you all eaten?"

Lin Xiuqing was surprised. Ever since her eldest son pooped on him, he had never hugged the child again. Today, for the first time, he wanted to hug his younger son, but she didn't stop him if he wanted to.

"have eaten."

Ye Yaodong followed her into the house with his child in his arms, and saw her bringing out a bowl of sweet potato shredded porridge and a small plate of pickled mustard from the pot on the stove.

As soon as he put the child down and picked up the chopsticks, he heard his father say: "Your eldest and second uncle are greedy. It is right to keep your wealth private."

Ye Yaopeng sat next to Ye Yaodong and frowned: "We can't help but expose it. When the boat arrived at the dock, everyone saw the golden yellow croaker, and the villagers also saw the stacks of large yellow croakers given when they bought it. arrive."

"What are you afraid of? What are you worried about? The money is in our pockets, how could it be poached by them?" Ye Yaodong picked up a stick of mustard and bit it loudly, saying without caring.

"Dad, are you afraid that if things get serious, your brotherly relationship with your eldest uncle and your second uncle will be hurt, right?" It was the second eldest brother, Ye Yaohua, who spoke, and he looked more honest.

Father Ye didn't answer. He held a handful of tobacco with his fingers and pressed it into the round hole of the hookah. Then he picked up the matchbox, took out a match and scratched it on the side.

A small flame lit up. Father Ye put the burning match close to the pipe hole and slowly started smoking. The water pipe made a gurgling sound...

It wasn't until smoke came out of his mouth and nose and he looked around that he said, "Where is your grandma?"

Only then did Ye Mu say: "My mother went out early in the morning, probably to the roadside at the entrance of the village to see if the corn and melons she planted were ripe. Last night I heard her saying that the corns and melons were probably edible, and they were just right for me. A few little ones to satisfy my cravings."

"I'm eighty years old, and I still can't be idle..."

Ye Yaodong pulled a small bowl of shredded sweet potato porridge in, put down the bowl and chopsticks, interrupted his father's words with a swipe of his mouth, and ordered several eldest nephews and nieces who looked to be 5.6.7.8 years old.

"You little ones, go to the roadside at the entrance of the village and see if your wife is in the fields and bring her back."

He hadn't seen her for decades, and he missed his grandma who loved him the most.

"Okay, Third Uncle!"

Several children were obedient and ran outside excitedly, even if the sun was too bright!

Children in the countryside are very strong-skinned. They go to the mountains and sea all day long and don't need adults to watch them. Now that summer vacation has just started, they can play hard.

The adults of this era were running around for food and livelihood, so they had no time to supervise them and just let them run around the village.

After instructing the kids, he saw his wife coming to collect the dishes. He smiled at her, and then looked at his dad.

"Dad, how much did that net of large yellow croakers cost yesterday?"

Father Ye glanced at this inconspicuous third son and said nothing. He had already said it yesterday and asked, but he didn't know what his intention was!

Ye Yaodong:......

He really doesn’t remember!
