DouDou made a face at Ye Cheng and replied in her childish voice, "Second Uncle, my mom said I'm a high-class bean, these are edamame, they're different."
Ye Cheng grinned; children are just so innocent.
“Okay, our DouDou is a high-class bean.”
As he spoke, he casually picked up a handful of edamame, pressed it with his thumb, and peeled out a few edamame beans inside. There were three beans inside, and they were quite plump.
"You'll be eating here tonight. Nothing fancy prepared, just some simple home-style dishes," Ye Guowei said, then gave Ye Cheng a disapproving look.
"Tell me how long it's been since you last came here."
"Brother, have you been busy lately?"
Before Ye Guowei could speak, Dou Dou raised her hand and said first, "No, my mom said that Second Uncle has someone to cook and wash dishes for him. If you don't want to come over, you'll still have to do housework."
Ye Cheng blushed and reached out to rub his nephew's head vigorously, saying, "You're such a little devil."
"I'm not a little kid anymore," Dou Dou said, tilting her head away unhappily.
As she spoke, Jiang Yunxiang came out as well. Seeing Ye Cheng messing with her son, she quickly said something.
“Acheng, how old are you? Why are you arguing with him?”
Ye Guowei looked at his wife and coughed twice. "Acheng isn't married yet, and he's still quite young."
Ye Cheng turned his head away speechlessly; there was nothing he could say to his older brother.
After finishing with the edamame, Jiang Yunxiang tossed over two handfuls of greens and asked the three of them to prepare them.
Ye Cheng looked at the vegetables in front of him, then at his older brother, "Brother, sister-in-law seems to be a bit irritable lately."
Ye Guowei glanced at his son, then looked at Ye Cheng, warning him not to say anything out of line.
Then he lowered his voice and said, "I haven't had anything to do lately, so I'm a bit bored at home."
Ye Cheng nodded. He used to say that women should just stay at home, but in fact, women also need to go out and work, not necessarily for money, but mainly to have something to do.
When they have nothing to do, they turn their anger towards their husbands at home.
Ye Cheng didn't want to get involved in these family matters, nor could he. His older brother and sister-in-law were the only people in the world who could keep him in check.
After preparing the dishes, Jiang Yunxiang cooked a few simple home-style dishes and served them.
After only a few bites, Jiang Yunxiang looked at Ye Cheng and asked, "Cheng, what have you been busy with lately? Is there anything we can do? Your Aunt Qian and I are getting a little bored."
Seeing Jiang Yunxiang's eager eyes, wanting to get to work, Ye Cheng sighed helplessly, "Sister-in-law, I'm thinking of building a house recently, but you can't do that."
"Build a house? You want to rebuild your place with a second floor?" Ye Guowei interjected curiously.
Ye Cheng shook his head. "No, I just rented that old house from the village. I plan to renovate it all and open a farmhouse inn."
"What is a farm stay?" Jiang Yunxiang asked her husband.
Ye Guowei also shook his head, saying he had never heard of such a trendy term.
"It's just a restaurant. In the countryside, restaurants are called farmhouses."
"Oh, this can actually generate business?"
Ye Cheng quickly explained what he had said a thousand times again, but the two of them only half understood.
"By the way, brother, if I want to renovate those houses, do you know anyone in the village who's good at it?"
Ye Cheng came today to ask Ye Guowei about this matter; he needs to find a house builder.
There are construction teams in the city, but they are too far away.
“Building houses? I have people.”
Jiang Yunxiang stood up first, and said excitedly, "My uncle builds houses, so we can just have him come and do it."
Ye Cheng lowered his head and remained silent. His sister-in-law always sided with her own family.
Ye Guowei glanced helplessly at his wife, not daring to voice his objections, and could only look at his younger brother.
“Ah Cheng, Yunxiang’s uncle does do this. Making money for others is not as good as making money for your own family. What do you think?”
Since his elder brother had spoken, what else could Ye Cheng say?
"Okay, sister-in-law, but let me make this clear from the start: they can make the money they should make, but they can't make the money they shouldn't, and the quality has to be guaranteed."
"This child," Jiang Yunxiang spat at him, "would I harm my own relatives? My uncle is an honest and hardworking man with solid skills. You'll see when I bring him over tomorrow."
After saying that, Jiang Yunxiang rushed off to call her mother to boast about her achievement.
Ye Cheng watched Jiang Yunxiang's retreating figure, then looked at his older brother.
"Brother, is what your sister-in-law said reliable?"
"She's reliable. Her uncle is indeed a good person, but his skills are a bit outdated. If you want to make something new, it probably won't work, but he'll be fine with the things from the village."
"The craftsmanship is excellent. That's exactly what I need. I'll wait for them to come over tomorrow, take a look, and if it's good, I'll hire a few more helpers and get started."
"Yeah, I'll come back earlier these days to keep an eye on things for you. It's not easy for you to earn money."
After all, they were blood relatives, and Ye Guowei still cared about his younger brother.
Soon, Jiang Yunxiang returned with a big smile. "Acheng, I've already talked to my uncle. He'll be coming tomorrow. He's been idle at home for a long time. He'll bring my cousin with him; the two of them will work faster."
After saying that, she turned to look at Ye Guowei, "When my uncle comes over, I'll clean out a room in the house for them to stay in, so they won't have to look for a place to live."
"Okay, if you need more blankets or something, just add some more."
Ye Guowei doesn't care about anything else as long as his wife is happy.
Seeing Ye Guowei's quick agreement, Jiang Yunxiang's interest was piqued, and she said to Ye Cheng with a smug look on her face,
“Ah Cheng, you don’t know, when I told my mom that I found a big job for my uncle, she was so happy and kept praising you for your ability.”
Ye Cheng chuckled dryly. His sister-in-law's little obsession was truly something else.
"Sister-in-law, I won't be free until the afternoon. I have to go out to sea this morning to collect fish traps and stuff. I'll come over when I get back and tell them how to do it."
"Okay, no problem. You guys eat first, I'll go tidy up the house."
That's really helpful.
Ye Chengcheng was a little jealous.
I want to have a daughter someday.
Good daughter, even after getting married, she still thinks about her parents' home.
After dinner, we enjoyed some family time and then went back home, as tomorrow was another morning's day to go out to sea.
Because they were going to discuss building the house the next day, Ye Cheng arranged to meet at the dock at 6 o'clock.
I checked the system before setting off:
Luck value: 30+20
Points: 4600
Deposits: 180,000; Foreign debt: 10,000; Mortgage: 300,000
The luck stat is a bit low, but the points have increased quite rapidly, probably because of the giant grouper yesterday.
There was a text message from Duan Yong on my phone: 200 jin of crayfish had been delivered to Boss Kong. Duan Yong would ask about the sales figures in the afternoon.
When Ye Cheng and Xiao Hu arrived, Duan Chunsheng hadn't arrived yet. The two squatted there waiting, taking the opportunity to look at the scenery.
