Return to the small fishing village of 1982

Chapter 42 Uneven division of labor? Be careful

Everyone waited patiently for a while, then Lin Xiuqing put down her calculations and said, "It's 7,628 pounds, 1,601 yuan, 8 cents and 8 cents, that's right."

"I just said there is nothing wrong. We are all from the same village. I will not cheat on you. Integrity is what matters in business."

Ye Yaodong said with a smile: "I didn't say Brother Cai that you were cheating, I'm just afraid that the number is too big, and it's easy to make mistakes if you only count it once."

"It's okay. No one can guarantee that they won't make a miscalculation. Since there is no problem, I will issue you a receipt."

"Ah, can't you get the money right away?" A Guang glared.

"How can I have so much cash? This mackerel is not as expensive as the large yellow croaker and you need to find a buyer first. This one is easy to sell. I will issue you a receipt first. You can take the receipt to my house tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to calculate the money." It’s more than a thousand, are you still afraid that I’ll run away? How many goods do I have to receive in a month!”

"Okay, let's issue a receipt."

Everyone knew that there was no cash settlement at the purchase point, and they had to wait until their money was withdrawn before they could settle. In fact, they were not short of a day or two, but Aguang was just too excited and a little impatient.

"Dongzi, just leave the receipt with you and let your wife keep it. You can tell us after you calculate the money."

"OK!"

After watching the excitement, the villagers were reluctant to leave and continued to gather around the collection point, looking at the baskets of mackerel and continuing to whisper.

Xiaoxiao, Ah Zheng, and A Guang excitedly followed Ye Yaodong to Ye's house, bragging to Ye Yaodong's family members about how powerful, witty, and lucky they were back then...

Their laughter was all the way along.

After arriving at Ye's house, they each went back to their respective homes.

Mother Ye said with a smile on her face: "Dongzi, are you still going tomorrow?"

"I'll ask after Aguang returns to see if we can rent it for another day. I was originally going to go fishing on an isolated island today, and it was by chance that I encountered a school of mackerel."

Lin Xiuqing said with a pity on her face: "The house construction will start tomorrow, and we have to help at home, otherwise we can go fishing with you."

"It's okay. I'll just go by myself. You guys should do whatever you want."

Seeing that he was rarely so diligent and sensible, Ye Mu was also very pleased, "It just so happens that you can't help much, just go to the sea to get some seafood and come back to serve as food for the workers. There are so many workers, and there is a lot of food every day." , as long as your big brother is here tomorrow."

"Who knows if they are willing to rent the boat tomorrow?"

"If you don't want to rent, then you can go to the mountains to transport loess together, and go to Dongqiao Village to dig out stones from the river. This will give the family an extra labor force!"

Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes. If he told his mother that his car overturned while transporting loess this morning, his mother would probably glare again. He really had never done any work in his previous life and was a waste.

"let's talk tomorrow."

He went directly to the backyard to take a shower. It didn't matter to him that the clothes he changed out in the morning were not dry. After washing, he put on shorts and strutted into the house, then lay down directly. When his clothes were dry in the evening, he went to A Guang's place for a drink. Save some rice for your family...

Lin Xiuqing also followed him into the room and whispered to him: "Second sister-in-law just stopped talking several times, did you notice?"

"Why should I look at her?"

"No, I think she might want to ask about the money from selling the mackerel!"

Ye Yaodong looked at her inexplicably, "It's none of her business whether I earn my own money or not. Each room in the family has always been responsible for what they earn."

"Maybe she thinks that the money earned by the eldest brother and the second brother by going to sea with dad will be confiscated to build a house, but you don't follow the turn, but rent a boat to make money yourself, and she has an idea in her mind."

Women just have too many eyes, too many thoughts, and that’s trouble!

"Dad owns the boat. What's wrong with being a son and helping the family with some work? Although I'm too lazy to do some work, haven't I also been helping out in the past two days to save some food money for the family? It's also a contribution. Why? Can’t I just keep the money I earn?”

"Shhh, keep your voice down!" Lin Xiuqing glanced at the door, she must have been heard.

"What are you afraid of!"

He is so confident!

He had earned it in the first place, and his second sister-in-law was so used to it that she wanted to reach out to him, but there was no way.

Lin Xiuqing didn't dare to say anything, fearing that he would rush out to reason.

Anyway, the second sister-in-law didn't open her mouth, so they just pretended they didn't know for the time being.

Seeing that she was silent, Ye Yaodong said calmly: "Leave her alone. After a few months, when the house is built, we will separate the families, and each family will live in their own way."

She responded softly, "Yeah."

When Ye's father came back from the fishing boat, his clothes were still dry and he had nothing to wear for the time being, so he didn't go out to the dock to help pick goods, and stayed at home with peace of mind.

When Father Ye arrived home, he rarely smiled at him, "Not bad, we actually caught more than 7,000 kilograms of mackerel."

"Actually, it's not much. If we divide it between four people, it's only 400 yuan per person."

"It's pretty good. It would be better if I went alone."

Ye Yaodong: If you go alone, you will lose a son and invite your relatives and friends to eat at my table!

Second Sister-in-law Ye finally had a chance to say what she had been holding back all afternoon.

"Dad, my eldest brother and Ah Hua took turns going to sea with you, and all the money they earned was confiscated to build a house. Does Yaodong also have to use the money from selling fish to build a house?"

"Huh?" Father Ye frowned and was about to speak when Ye Yaodong repeated what he said to Lin Xiuqing in the afternoon.

"But it's different. They also worked hard, and the money they earned was not shared. Instead, it was used to build a house. If Yaodong doesn't go to sea with you, what he earns will go back to him. It means that we have to share part of the money we make to build it for him. The house is gone, Dad, this is somewhat unfair, we are at a huge disadvantage."

Father Ye frowned, "Who said that? How can you think so? Then if I use the money to build a house for you, don't I suffer a big loss? The boat is mine, not the government's. I have been repairing the boat bit by bit in the past two years. , did you take money from you?"

"The eldest brother and the second child are contributing to the family by following the sea. The third child is also contributing to Taohai. Apart from what can be sold for money, doesn't everything else contribute? And I heard from the second child that the third child also went to the homestead to help in the past two days. A little life.”

"To put it another way, if the boss and the second child go to sea with me, how can you build a house for your family if you count the wages? How come you are the only one who makes money to build a house for him? I am obviously the one subsidizing you to build a house. The third child also buys seafood from sea. He can save some food money, which is money and his contribution, but the way he contributes is different."

He obviously listened to what Lao San said, and he keeps what he earns, so there is nothing wrong with him.

Moreover, according to the family background of the three sons, the third son is the weakest. Parents will always worry more about the weaker son. Although they hate the iron, they still have some partiality in their hearts.

Seeing her unconvinced look, Father Ye then said: "If he doesn't go fishing tomorrow, even if I break his legs, I can still carry him to the homestead to help. There's nothing to say, right? Do you think so? Are you tired of going to sea or tired of picking up pebbles and loess?"

No matter how much money you earn, the division of labor begins to be uneven. If your family earns a lot of money again, will you be able to pay it off?

The second daughter-in-law is just too good at forgetting things.

Over the years, they kept the money they earned by themselves, and the food and drink were all produced at home, and they didn't spend much money. It was rare for the third child to make a fortune, but she couldn't wait to jump out.

Father Ye's heart was the same as Ming Jing's. He had long known the personalities and temperaments of his family, and he had long wanted to separate the family and let them all live alone.

Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, no matter what their lives are like!
