Ye Zhiqiu was really worried. He couldn't catch any fish with this rod. It was not scientific at all. He hoped that it would cause any problems for Ye Wubing!
Ye Wubing shook his head quickly and said, "Brother, don't even think about it! I've already made a good start. I'll catch more and more fish in the future, and they'll get bigger and bigger!"
Ye Zhiqiu rubbed his forehead. He was worried that the fish Lao Er caught today was the pinnacle of fishing!
But looking at his high-spirited face, Ye Zhiqiu couldn't say anything to persuade him, so he simply ignored the matter.
He asked Ye Bailu and Ye Wubing to wash their hands while he washed the bunch of grapes. After dividing it into five portions, he said to them, "Although the grapes are delicious, there aren't many. Each of you eat your own portion! You are not allowed to eat your parents'. Do you understand?"
Seeing the two people nodding vigorously, he let them choose one and started eating.
It is normal to eat grapes without spitting out the skins. You should know that when you eat pears and apples, only the seeds are left!
Ye Zhiqiu also liked these things very much. He hadn't eaten them for a long time. He spat all the grape seeds into his palm and then put them into the space.
That is, the grapes grown in the villager's yard are sour and not sweet. I don't know what kind of rubbish they are, otherwise he would have planted some vines in the space long ago. What's the point of planting something so sour!
The two little ones were quite slow in eating these precious things! They kept a grape in their mouth for quite some time, only swallowing it when it was no longer sweet. It was almost like eating candy!
Ye Zhiqiu thought it was quite funny, but when he thought about it carefully, he realized that during his time in the village, there were only a few times in a year when he could say sweet words!
After eating half of it, the two of them couldn't bear to finish it anymore and wanted to save it for later.
This made Ye Zhiqiu feel a little strange. In his memory, Ye Bailu never did this. He asked curiously, "Little sister, why did you keep it?"
Ye Bailu said seriously, "You will all have food to eat later. If I don't save some for you, I will just have to watch you eat it. So I will save some for you to eat together."
These words amused Ye Zhiqiu, who couldn't help but grin. This little girl was really starting to get her bearings! She knew she had nothing left, so she could only watch others eat her food.
In the past, no matter what it was, she would finish eating first. Then she would look at her family eagerly, and naturally get some food from her daughter-slave Ye Tianya's bowl.
Ye Wubing looked at Xiao Hei, who was squatting on the ground, tilting his head from side to side, watching him and his friends. He thought that he had to build a doghouse. He couldn't let this guy get used to sleeping in the room anymore. A guard dog should have the awareness of guarding the house.
Arriving at the utility room, he looked at the large boards and thought it was a shame to use them as a doghouse. He went to the kitchen next door and asked Wang Xiaolan, "Mom, didn't we move the smaller boards? I was thinking of making a doghouse for Xiao Hei and putting it on the ground next to the front door, but why can't I find those smaller boards?"
Wang Xiaolan thought about it, then remembered. She pointed to the various large vats in the house and said, "I've used them all to pad the bottoms of the vats! But don't worry about the doghouse. When those bamboo strips become less brittle in a few days, I'll weave one for you. Then I'll get some straw and cover the top!"
Ye Zhiqiu nodded. It was a good thing that he didn't have to do it himself. Although he was good at doing things, his aesthetic taste was not that good!
The doghouse should at least be placed next to the door so that you can see it as soon as you come in. It will be more pleasing to the eye if it looks good.
"I'm back!"
Ye Tianya's voice rang out. After parking his bike, he ran to the kitchen. Seeing the basins and buckets on the floor, he asked in surprise, "Wife, son, you've made the sweet potato vermicelli today? Oh my goodness, it's so fast!"
Speaking of this, Wang Xiaolan remembered that so much time had passed and it was time to hang it up.
He immediately said to them, "It should be completely cool now. Go pick up these vermicelli noodles and take them to the east wing and hang them on the bamboo poles to dry!"
Ye Zhiqiu agreed and started working with Ye Tianya who had washed his hands. After a while, he called Ye Wubing over.
The father and his two sons divided the work and after everything was hung up, they all smiled as they looked at the neatly hung vermicelli.
Ye Tianya and Ye Wubing went to fetch water for a bath together. Ye Zhiqiu was not so anxious, as he had not sweated much today.
After dinner was ready, the family started eating and then started cutting watermelon.
There was no way they could finish it all. The whole family was so full of sweet watermelon that they were completely stuffed! Even Wang Xiaolan didn't go wash the dishes right away. Instead, the whole family sat in the yard, enjoying the cool breeze with palm-leaf fans.
Ye Tianya and Ye Zhiqiu lit a cigarette and chatted about the factory while smoking.
Ye Tianya said angrily, "Today, at the end of the shift, the security department caught four workers stealing beer with thermoses! Director Chen was furious at the door. These people are really outrageous. The price of beer sold at the factory is not expensive, yet they still steal the factory's beer like this!"
Ye Zhiqiu asked curiously, "Did they decide on the punishment for these people? Stealing from the factory is really outrageous. They will definitely be severely punished, right?"
Although stealing things from the factory is quite common these days, you just can't get caught! Just like when the warehouse manager was caught last time, not only did she suffer a huge financial loss, but her colleagues would also forever label her a thief!
Even though those colleagues clearly participated in stealing things, they were not caught and would just laugh at others and call them thieves!
Ye Tianya exhaled smoke and said uncertainly, "Some say they'll be punished by cleaning toilets for a month, while others say the missing 300-plus liters of beer will be charged to these people! We'll have to wait for the factory's penalty announcement tomorrow to find out the exact punishment for these four people!"
The shortage of over 300 liters, calculated at the factory's employee price of 20 cents per liter, came to 60 yuan! Divided equally among four people, that was 15 yuan per person. Losing half a month's salary was a heartbreaking punishment.
If you think about it, you will know that it was not just the four of them who stole it, they were just unlucky enough to be inspected.
Ye Zhiqiu was a little curious. Was Ye Tianya checked by the security department the last time he came back from getting beer?
So he asked, "Dad, were you checked by the security department when you got the beer last time? If they did, how would you prove that the beer was made in your factory and not stolen?"
Ye Tianya explained with a smile: "Haha, actually, everyone who goes to the factory to get beer will be given a receipt. We also have to give the receipt to the security department before we can take the goods out of the factory!"
I see. But come to think of it, it's impossible that there aren't any rules like this. Everyone would take advantage of this and bring back hot water from the factory with a thermos, saving money on boiling water for the family!
The Ye family didn't do that, simply because they still had plenty of firewood. Once the firewood ran out, if Ye Zhiqiu didn't bring it back, and they had to rely entirely on coal, Wang Xiaolan would definitely ask Ye Tianya to bring a thermos to the factory every day and bring back hot water after get off work in the evening!
