Meanwhile, in Yejiacun, Ye Jianguo was sitting at the door, frowning and smoking, the smoke making Li Chunhua cough.
"I'll beat you to death, I'll beat you to death sooner or later!"
Ye Jianguo didn't argue with her, but frowned and asked, "What should we do about Ye Jun's matter?"
Li Chunhua knew perfectly well that her husband was being bothered by their two sons, and she sighed as well.
"His second son's wife is getting pregnant, how can he go to Xiao Cui's house to work? They're just jealous because the eldest son gives you so much money!"
"You're a parent yourself, yet you're so immature!"
Ye Jianguo remained silent.
Yesterday, Ye Lin took a tractor and got home before lunch. Ye Jianguo was surprised that he was back so soon, since he had said he was going to stay at Ye Xiaocui's house for a few days with his parents.
"Dad, my aunt asked me to bring a lot of things!"
Li Chunhua took all the fresh fish and shrimp from his hands, as well as a lot of seaweed and dried oysters that Ye Xiaocui had dried herself.
"Father, Mother, Uncle paid me my wages, this is Father's!"
After Ye Lin finished speaking, he pulled out a stack of ten-yuan notes from his pocket. Upon seeing this, Li Chunhua immediately put the notes aside and slapped Ye Lin's arm.
"Mom, why did you hit me?"
Ye Lin felt wronged; it was the first time he had ever been beaten for taking out money.
Li Chunhua's voice rose several decibels in anger, "You dare take so much money from your aunt? I'll beat you to death!"
While dodging, Ye Lin shouted fearlessly, "This was given to my dad by my aunt. I put mine away myself. My aunt was even going to give me two hundred, but I didn't accept it and pushed it back!"
“My uncle said that we would only get a share of the profits, and this is what we deserve!”
Ye Jianguo stopped Li Chunhua's outstretched hand, saying, "Forget it, this is Xiao Cui and the others' good intention. Hitting him won't change anything."
After saying that, he pulled Ye Lin aside and asked, "Was it the fish that were sold the night before last that A-Wan's father gave you?"
Ye Lin nodded hurriedly, "Yes, my uncle originally gave me two hundred, but I said it was too much and returned it. My aunt said that if I didn't accept this hundred, I wouldn't need to help anymore."
When I heard that, I knew it was unacceptable, so I immediately accepted the call.
He spoke with great enthusiasm, but Li Chunhua glared at him and said, "Your aunt is just giving you a subsidy, so give me your share!"
Ye Lin was somewhat reluctant. "Mom, please leave some for me. I can't even afford to buy my son a candied hawthorn skewer. It's so embarrassing."
Li Chunhua said irritably, "Why should I feed you, drink you, and feed you candied hawthorns? Ye Lin, how can you be so capable?"
Ye Lin reluctantly took off his shoes and began to rummage through the soles.
Li Chunhua was puzzled, "I told you to get the money, what are you doing?"
Ye Lin said matter-of-factly, "Pay up the money!"
After saying that, he pulled out a crumpled ten-yuan note from his worn-out liberation shoes.
When a person is speechless to the extreme, they truly have nothing to say.
Not only was Li Chunhua speechless, but Ye Jianguo next to her was also truly convinced.
"Don't you find it uncomfortable to put money in your shoe?"
Ye Lin became even more self-righteous, "What's so uncomfortable about this? If I think about how I'm standing on money, I'll walk with even more energy!"
"Mother, do you still want this money?"
Li Chunhua felt she could smell the stench of feet on the money from a distance. After hesitating for two seconds, she angrily shouted, "Get out, get out, take your stinking money and get the hell out of here!"
Ye Lin chuckled and quickly put on his shoes before running to the field to find his wife, Chen Guifang.
Li Chunhua didn't expect that Liang Cuifen, who was lazily sleeping in the room, had heard the whole thing. Although she didn't understand everything, Liang Cuifen knew that Ye Lin had brought back a lot of money.
When Ye Jun returned that evening, Liang Cuifen didn't know what she said to him, but Ye Jun had come over to Ye Jianguo early that morning and said that he was also going to Fujia Village to go out to sea with Fu Laoda's family.
Ye Jianguo knew exactly what his youngest son was thinking; he was just jealous of the money Ye Lin was making!
But he knew in his heart that Ye Xiaocui and Boss Fu were probably just worried that their families would have a hard time making ends meet, so they deliberately gave him more money.
But it was one thing for one son to go and earn some wages, but if both sons went, he was too ashamed to even ask Boss Fu and Ye Xiaocui for it.
Moreover, Ye Jun is not as hardworking as Ye Lin. He is more scheming, and there is also Liang Cuifen, who is equally scheming and immature.
That's why he was smoking at the door, feeling so worried.
"Dad, the bicycle is gone!"
Ye Lin heard his younger brother and father arguing early in the morning, but he didn't pay much attention to it at first. However, when he was about to ride his bicycle out, he found that Ye Jun had actually ridden the bicycle to his mother-in-law's house.
He's crazy. His mother-in-law lives in the next village, just a short walk away. He only has one bicycle, and it would take him half a day to get to Fujia Village.
Ye Jianguo's eyebrows furrowed so deeply they could trap a fly. "That bastard, I'm going to find him!"
After saying that, he was about to get up and leave when Ye Lin picked up his things and ran out. "I'm going to ask if there's a tractor. It's going to rain today, so I have to go early!"
Chen Guifang was sewing clothes in the room. She stood up and watched her husband leave through the window. Then she looked at the neatly arranged banknotes on the table, feeling both happy and reluctant.
It would be great if things could be more harmonious at home.
...
Lunch had just ended, and not long after Fu Wanye and Xiao Cui took the children home, the sky became overcast.
"It's going to rain! Ah Wan, hurry up and bring in the fishing nets."
Ye Xiaocui called out and ran to the yard to collect the fishing nets, with Fu Wan quickly following behind.
Fu Ming and Fu Laoda went to the ancestral hall to collect seaweed, and Fu Ling and Fu Yun followed suit, bringing Wangcai, who was hiding outside, back inside.
Just as everyone packed their things and went inside, the rain began to pour down.
Just then, there was a loud knocking at the door. "Auntie, Uncle, Amin and Awan! I'm back!"
Fu Ming didn't even bother to open the umbrella before running to open the door, and sure enough, it was Ye Lin.
The two ran into the house as fast as they could, and Ye Xiaocui handed them a dried towel that had been dried in the sun.
"Quickly wipe yourself dry, Ah Lin, why are you so late today?"
She thought he would come home for lunch, so she specially left some food at home.
Ye Lin didn't want to talk about the bicycle, so he only said that he hitched a ride on a tractor, but the tractor broke down halfway and it took a long time to fix.
The rain lasted all afternoon, accompanied by thunder, lightning, and strong winds.
Fortunately, there were still plenty of vegetables and dried fish at Grandpa Fu's house, so the family ate dinner early that evening.
Seeing that the rain was starting to subside, Fu Wan put Fu Yun and Fu Ling to bed early, planning to go to the beach that evening.
"Ah Wan, wanna go beachcombing tonight?"
Fu Ming asked Fu Wan in a low voice at the door. Fu Wan responded, and he was relieved to go and call Fu Liang.
Ye Lin watched Ye Xiaocui prepare the bucket and fire tongs for beachcombing at home, and he was so excited that he couldn't wait to go to the beach.
Fu Ming told him a lot about the harvest that Fu Wan and the others had made when they went beachcombing, which made him extremely envious.
Today, it's finally his turn to go to the beach to collect money!
