058: Parents’ Disagreement
None of the three of them had time to talk and were busy shoveling food into their mouths.
Each person was served a bowl of fish head soup, an egg, a cornmeal pancake, sashimi, and a lunch box of potato, cabbage and black fungus soup. The whole family enjoyed the delicious and sweet meal.
He also ate the big fish head cleanly.
In the end, only egg shells and fish bones were left on the table.
There was nothing edible left, not even a drop of soup.
After eating, wash up.
The whole family washed and cleaned up, and everyone changed into clean pajamas. Yu Xiaoye called his parents to the sofa in the living room for a small meeting.
On the surface, Yu Jiahui is the head of this family, and Yu Xiaoye is just a small fry.
But privately, Yu Xiaoye is the backbone of the family.
Because she has both ocean space and understanding of the plot, with these two things, she naturally has a say at home and can give advice to her family, and her parents will definitely listen to her.
"Dad, Mom, let's talk about our plans for tomorrow, shall we?"
Xu Ying raised her hand first:
"Tomorrow I have to go to work with that Zhu Dali—Hey, why does Zhu Dali look like both a man and a woman?"
Yu Jiahui stopped and packed up:
"Wife, let's not gossip about others and solve our own problems first. Tomorrow you will go to work for me, and Xiaoye and I will be busy at home, mainly cleaning up the house. Although we don't need to live in the mud house at the moment, it's best to clean it up as soon as possible, otherwise others will get suspicious."
Xu Ying nodded.
Yu Xiaoye said:
"For the next period of time, Mom will take over Dad's work. Dad and I will use this time to renovate the house. Besides renovating the house, I also want to find time to catch some shrimp and make some shrimp paste."
"Shrimp paste?" When Yu Jiahui heard the word shrimp paste, for some reason, his mouth started watering, almost like a conditioned reflex.
Xu Ying gave him a wicked look and said to her daughter:
"See? Is he still the same?"
Yu Jiahui blinked: "What do you mean?"
Xu Ying: "Forget it, I won't say any more. I'll save your face. If you knew what kind of person you were before, you would probably jump into the sea out of frustration."
“——” So scary?
Yu Jiahui had no memories and had no idea what the original owner was like before. But think about it, just to get a job, he pushed his own daughter into a fire pit and married her to a fool. Could a normal person do such a thing?
Anyway, Yu Jiahui used to be extremely chauvinistic, extremely patriarchal, extremely selfish, and foolishly filial. He was truly a terrible leader!
Yu Xiaoye continued:
"Let the past go, and let's talk about the future.
Dad, let's find a way to borrow a fishing net someday, take it to the space, and cast it into the sea to see if we can catch some shrimps.
You only earn 28 yuan a month. With this salary alone, your family may not be able to have enough food to eat, so you have to find a way to make some shrimp paste and sell it in the free market to make some money.
The weather is getting warmer, so my family needs to wear more clothes. In a few days, our cotton-padded jackets will no longer be wearable. We have to earn money to buy cloth to make some new clothes.
Yu Jiahui and Xu Ying nodded:
"That makes sense. I should definitely find some other way to make some extra money—but can I borrow a fishing net?"
"Yes, every company should have fishing nets. Many of the farm workers in the company are local ethnic minorities. They originally make a living by fishing and hunting. Sometimes, in order to improve their food, they are sent out to fish. So the company should have fishing nets. However, those ordinary fishing nets will need to be modified before we can lower them into the sea, because we want to do deep-sea fishing."
"No problem! Anything else?"
"besides--"
At this time, Yu Xiaoye suddenly opened his mouth and yawned.
Her biological clock started to play tricks on her again. She was already feeling sleepy and her mind was starting to get confused, so she said:
"We can discuss the rest tomorrow. Now go to sleep and get enough rest. Mom still has to work tomorrow."
Seeing that the family meeting was over, Xu Ying put her legs down from the sofa and prepared to go back to sleep.
Yu Jiahui hesitated for a moment, then suddenly spoke:
"Well, can I add something more?"
Xu Ying and Yu Xiaoye looked at Yu Jiahui together, and both of them paused.
Xu Ying asked:
"What else do you have planned?"
"Well, I told you not to be angry--" Yu Jiahui was a little nervous.
Yu Xiaoye was no longer sleepy.
Xu Ying also perked up at once.
They both looked at Yu Jiahui.
Yu Jiahui coughed dryly and whispered:
"Well, don't we still have two sons outside?"
The living room suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
After a moment, Xu Ying took a deep breath and said to her daughter, suppressing her anger:
"See? He's still like this. He hasn't changed. All he has in his mind is his two precious sons."
"No, no, no, that's not what I meant. Don't get me wrong. In my heart, you two are always the most important. That will never change!!"
Yu Xiaoye held Xu Ying's hand and advised:
"Mom, listen to what my dad says first."
"Yes, yes, yes, wife, listen to me first. I think those two boys must be in a miserable state now. They must have gone to find Li Dasong, and Li Dasong must not be in a good mood. You said that although they are not our sons before, they are still the sons of our body. We have occupied someone else's body, so shouldn't we at least take care of those two sons?"
"Are you taking the moral high ground?"
"No, no—"
"Okay, if you want to be a good person, I won't stop you. You can go find your two sons, bring them back home and raise them, and bring them back to the space. What if one day they don't keep their mouths shut and expose our Xiaoye's space? Think about it,
How will others treat our daughter? Will they think of her as a monster? You only think about your two sons, but you don't consider Xiaoye, right?"
Xu Ying has a characteristic: she can be vague about other things and can discuss them.
But if something threatens her daughter, she will get angry.
No matter who the other person is, even if it is her own husband, as long as he does something to hurt her daughter, she will not recognize any relatives but only her daughter.
If you don't love your own daughter, who else can you expect to love her?
Yu Jiahui understood Xu Ying's characteristics, so once it came to matters concerning his daughter, he had to compromise unconditionally:
"Wife, don't get excited. I didn't say I would take them into the space, and I would never do anything to harm Xiaoye."
"Since you won't take them into the space, it will definitely be inconvenient for us to enter the space in the future, and it will be even more inconvenient to take things out of the space, including shrimp paste and fish. It's not convenient to take them out. What do you think, given our current conditions, we don't even have a box of matches, and the small mud house is so dark that you can even look at the stars while lying on the kang. Is this a habitable condition? Can your 28 yuan salary support a family of five?"
"cannot--"
"Isn't this the end?"
