Chapter 163 Gold Ingots
When Yueyue arrived at the Hong family, the war between Zhao Zhaodi and Jin Fenglian had already ended.
Ah Hui just parked the car,
Ye Lin was worried about Jin Fenglian's ears, so he opened the car door and got out without waiting for him to open it. Before leaving, he told Aunt Liu
"Aunt Liu, it's a mess outside. Please wait in the car for a while."
"Okay, Master, you go ahead and get busy."
Aunt Liu really wanted to get out of the car and join in the fun, but it was not appropriate to meet the Ye family in this situation, so she decided to watch from the car.
No one knew what Lady Rebecca was busy with, and no one was eating melon with her.
Ah Hui helped the two aunties open the back door.
"Auntie, we're here, please get off slowly."
"Okay, we're sorry to bother you, young man. You're a really good driver. Why did you drive to Old Hong's house?"
Ah Hui...
The two aunties who came with Ye Lin were about to climb out of the car. Before leaving, they stole a few glances at Aunt Liu who was sitting by the car window.
Oh, although this lady didn’t wear a big gold chain or a big gold watch, she looked like a landlord’s wife from Hong Kong, with a strong Hong Kong vibe.
Aunt Liu has been hanging out with Irene and Rebecca for a long time these years, and her dress, speech and behavior have become similar to those of them. Now she also exudes the temperament of a Western lady.
The aunt didn't know what a lady was, she just thought Aunt Liu looked like a big landlord's wife.
The two aunts didn't dare to talk to her along the way.
But it’s not appropriate to take someone else’s car and then leave.
Just now, when Mr. Ye called the landlord's wife Aunt Liu, the two aunts hesitated for a moment and stammered goodbye to Aunt Liu.
"Well, Sister Liu, we're leaving first. Come over to our house when you have time."
After saying that, without waiting for Aunt Liu to speak, the two aunts slid down from the car seat and ran to the Hong family to watch the fun without looking back.
Aunt Liu: Am I that scary?
"Boss Ye is here, please make way."
"Boss Ye is finally here. Neither of the two daughters-in-law of the old Ye family is any good."
"Make way, tell Boss Ye to come in quickly."
The crowd who were watching the excitement saw Boss Ye coming and spontaneously began to make way for Ye Lin.
"Thank you, everyone. Please let me pass. Thank you."
Ye Lin apologized slightly to the surrounding villagers and quickly walked into the Hong family yard.
Quickly locate targets in a crowd.
Yes, none of his third aunt’s ears were missing, and both ears were still intact on her head.
However, there were two holes bitten at the base of his aunt's ear caused by her front teeth, and blood was oozing out. Zhao Zhaodi grimaced in pain.
Aunt Hong tore a piece of cotton cloth and bandaged her.
Ah Hui followed Ye Lin in and saw Zhao Zhaodi's bandaged ear.
As if he had discovered a new world, he clapped his hands excitedly, came to Ye Lin, and shared his discovery with the young master.
"Master, the eldest lady looks exactly like that painting of Fan Sha!"
"That's Van Gogh."
When Jin Fenglian saw Ye Lin coming, she finally found her backbone and hurriedly ran up to Ye Lin to ask for advice.
"Where did you go just now? I've been looking for you for a long time. Hey, why did you change your clothes?"
Jin Fenglian didn't wait for Ye Lin to speak, and quickly pulled Ye Lin to the ruins of the courtyard wall to let him see the miserable state of the car.
The car was covered with scars. Jin Fenglian was so distressed that she covered her chest and kept saying, "What a sin!"
"What a shame! How did a good car end up like this? Lin, how are we going to fix it?"
Before Ye Lin came, after hearing Ah Hui's description, he felt that the car did not need to be repaired. Now that he saw the extent of the damage to the car with his own eyes, he confirmed that there was indeed no need to repair it.
It's better to buy a new one than to repair it.
"No need to fix it, just sell it or give it away."
"What, you don't want it anymore? That won't do!"
Jin Fenglian has not refuted yet
Zhao Zhaodi, who was sitting on a stool at the back, called out first.
Zhao Zhaodi thought that she must have heard it wrongly because her ear was bitten by the shrew Jin. How could her nephew not want such a nice car!
Jin Fenglian grabbed Ye Lin's sleeve and asked him to take another closer look at the car.
The collision wasn't that serious. It still had a head and butt, so how could I throw it away?
"That's right, Lin. The car just has some paint scratches, a crack in the glass, and half of the head is missing. I don't think there's anything serious wrong with it. Why don't we just fix it?"
Jin Fenglian and Zhao Zhaodi, the sisters-in-law, temporarily put aside their conflicts and united as one again for the sake of a car.
Ye Lin asked Ah Hui to drive the car out of the ruins. It was not appropriate to keep parking the car in someone else's yard.
Seeing Jin Fenglian and Zhao Zhaodi's reluctance, Ye Lin explained to them why he didn't repair the
"Aunt, there's nothing to worry about. You might as well buy a new car with the money you have to repair it."
"The car needs to be taken back to Hong Kong for repairs. The parts and paint need to be imported from the United States. The repairs will cost about three to four thousand US dollars. A new one would only cost ten thousand US dollars. Do you think it's worth repairing?"
Ye Sanxing calculated in his mind and spoke uncertainly.
"It seems like it's not worth it? Ouch!"
A crutch hit Ye Sanxing's head hard.
Jin Fenglian snatched the crutch from Zhao Zhaodi and beat Ye Sanxing. This wasteful thing, wouldn't we save six or seven thousand after repairing it?
"What a bargain! Can you figure out the balance? Shut up, stupid bear."
She turned around and looked for Zhao Zhaodi, with whom she had just reconciled, hoping that someone would help her persuade Ye Lin to go and repair the car.
"Sister-in-law, do you think it's more cost-effective to repair the car or buy a new one?"
Zhao Zhaodi counted on her fingers and looked at Jin Fenglian in embarrassment. A rare blush of shyness appeared on her dark yellow face.
Snapping her fingers, Zhao Zhaodi asked Jin Fenglian a little embarrassedly
"Um, sister-in-law, how much is ten thousand? How much is three thousand?"
"I have ten fingers, and I can't even count them. How can I know how to get a good deal?"
Jin Fenglian: ...Another day that has left me speechless because of Zhao Zhaodi.
Ye Lin took the three hundred yuan handed to him by Ye Sanxing and went to apologize to Aunt Hong.
The three hundred yuan was what Aunt Hong just forced back on the Ye family. It was too much money and they felt uneasy taking it.
It took a lot of persuasion to get the Hong family to accept the hundred yuan.
Things are almost done, they have to go home quickly to prepare for tomorrow's funeral.
Ye Lin called Zhao Zhaodi and Jin Fenglian, who were still standing in front of the ruins, to go home.
These two people are obsessed with studying mathematics.
He shouted twice but to no avail.
"Look, sister-in-law, one finger is one thousand, and ten fingers are ten thousand. You..."
"Including the toes, that makes twenty fingers?"
"That's 20,000. Oh, sister-in-law, you are so smart."
Helpless, Ye Lin had to change the topic to attract them both
"My eldest aunt, my third aunt, and Aunt Liu, who took care of my father and me in Hong Kong, are here too. They're in the car outside."
"What!"
“Who’s coming?!”
On an off-road vehicle
Jin Fenglian and Zhao Zhaodi sat upright, their backs as if measured with a ruler, as straight as possible, their hands neatly placed on their knees, only their eyes kept turning to Aunt Liu.
The two of them tried opening their mouths a few times, but no words came out.
It's rare for brain waves to be synchronized.
Oh my goodness,
Today they finally know what Dong Shi and Xi Shi are.
Although they were wearing similar clothes, their temperament was worlds apart.
The two of them sat next to Aunt Liu, as if Aunt Liu was the lady, and Jin Fenglian and Zhao Zhaodi were maids.
The two people who had just been fashionable for a few days were instantly compared by Aunt Liu to being country bumpkins and nouveau riche.
Ah Hui needs to drive the damaged Cadillac back.
Ye Lin was the driver of the off-road vehicle himself. He hadn't driven a car for a long time, so he drove very carefully and didn't notice the strange atmosphere around the three people in the back seat.
Aunt Liu wanted to speak, but seeing that the two ladies of the Ye family had no intention of speaking, she didn't know how to start.
Awkwardness permeated the three people in the back row.
Fortunately, the Hong family and the old Ye family are only one alley away.
In less than half a minute, the off-road vehicle stopped in front of Old Ye's house.
After opening the car door for his aunt and the others, Ye Lin took Aunt Liu into the house to meet his grandparents.
The old couple of the Ye family were very busy this afternoon.
Everything needs to be counted and packed again, there can be no mistakes when Xiao Er is buried tomorrow.
Count the things needed for the burial, there must be enough food for relatives and friends to come to pay their respects, the kitchen must be fully stocked with vegetables and meat, and mourning clothes, firecrackers, braziers and other miscellaneous items must also be packed away.
The house is bustling with activity.
Old Mrs. Ye sat under the windowsill, sewing a mourning hat with white cloth. Old Man Ye was busy preparing meat and vegetables in the kitchen. Sisters Ye Xiuhong and Ye Li took over their grandparents' duties in the house, folding gold ingots for their second uncle.
