A Guang also looked with a smile at Ye Xiaoxi, whose entire person was round with a big plate-like face; no matter how he looked at her, she was delightful. Compared to his own daughter's palm-sized little face, Ye Xiaoxi still looked more festive and pleasing.

He pinched his own daughter's little face, "You should eat more too. Look at how good your sister's appetite is."

Pei Yu nodded heavily.

"I'm very free anyway. I'll go buy two pieces of fabric this afternoon, and I'll trouble the Third Sister-in-law to make two small spring outfits for them both."

Ye Mu said, "Why go to all that trouble? Xiao Jiu's short ones can be worn by Xiao Yu, and Yangyang's can be worn by Xiao Jiu. Just roll up the pant legs and roll up the sleeves, and it'll be fine. The two of them squat there all day playing with mud or sand, or hugging chickens, ducks, geese, and dogs. They have to change clothes several times a day. Why make new clothes? They have to take them off within two hours of putting them on. It's not a holiday or a festival."

"Their older brothers' clothes are all gray and drab. It doesn't look good for the two little girls to wear them. Two little girls should still wear colorful things."

"You really have too much money. In the past, we wore one piece of clothing from age three to eight, and at eight, we could still wear it back to age three..."

"Oh, stop always talking about the past. People want to buy them for their own children to wear, what does it have to do with you? It's not like they asked you to wear them. You love to look pretty yourself, wearing leather shoes and colorful clothes every day, yet you won't allow the children to dress up a little."

"Can that be the same?"

"How is it not the same? What woman, from 80 years old down to three, doesn't love beauty? Right, Grandma? Yesterday you even asked A Qing to cut your hair and wanted it cut a bit nicer. I saw you holding the mirror for a long time."

The old lady quickly smiled and agreed, "Right, right, right. This hair is too long. It'll look good if it's cut to the ears. It's also more spirited, and occasionally I can wear a black wig to cover the gray hair."

Ye Mu pursed her lips and stopped talking.

After the meal, A Guang ran to the town, and he even brought Pei Yu along. Because this child was truly clingy, it was just right; he brought the child along to let her go out and stroll around, and buy some food to bring back.

Having not returned for over half a month, he wasn't stingy either. He bought a whole pile of small snacks, covering the share for all the children in the Ye family. As a result, when they all returned in the evening and saw them, they were so happy they were about to fly, all surrounding Pei Yu, calling her "Little Sister" this and "Little Sister" that.

Pei Yu also smiled happily until her eyes squinted, revealing two rows of little rice-grain teeth. The group of children played house, surrounding the table to eat snacks together.

Ye Fu, watching from the side, jokingly said they should make a set of shorter tables and chairs for them, so it would be convenient for them to set up a table to play house from time to time.

"That's doable, Dad. Just take a wooden board, draw a circle, use a saw to cut it, and just take a few pieces of wood to hammer together some low stools."

Simple, rough work is something the older generation usually knows how to do. If you want it done more finely, then you have to find a carpenter.

"Am I that free?"

"Do it when you're free. It's not like I asked you to do it right now. Are there many squid today?"

"Quite a lot. Today's volume has come up. It should be the peak fishing season in less than two days. The wharf is full of squid today too."

A Guang also followed up, "I ran to the county seat this afternoon. The shipyard has already pulled out manpower, rushing to start repairing our boat first. It should be ready in two or three days."

"That's good. Since you're free at home these two days, go keep an eye on it more."

While the adults were talking at the door, the other children were also chattering. Suddenly, everyone heard a sigh, and instantly, everyone was full of confusion.

"Sigh... this is the last meal..."

"What do you mean this is the last meal?"

"Big Brother must mean that once this is eaten, there won't be any more. We'll have to sleep when it gets dark later. It's the last meal of the day."

"No, I'm talking about the last happy, full meal. We'll have to start suffering at night..."

Ye Chenghe immediately called out happily, "That's right, that's right! We must go out to sea to pick up squid together..."

Ye Chengjiang was full of curiosity, "Is going out to sea to pick up squid really that miserable?"

"It's more than just miserable. You'll know after going for a few days. You'll be hungry and sleepy, there's nothing to eat, and it's boring. Peeling a layer of skin from the sun is one thing, but do you know what the key is? The key is that there's no money. After working hard for over half a month, it all goes to my mother."

Ye Fu glared at Ye Chenghai unhappily, "Are you obsessed with money? Work hard to earn more for the family now. In a few years when you take a wife, your parents will still have to pay for you to get a wife. Otherwise, what will you use to marry a wife?"

"Can't I save it myself?"

"Can you save it? You're 15 years old, and there's still a pile of little paper dolls and beads at home. Can you rely on those to marry a wife?"

"Hey! You really shouldn't say that!"

Ye Chenghai instantly got excited, draping his arm over Ye Chenghe's shoulder, "Chenghe, this fool, actually relied on this to coax Chen Xiuni!!! They go to school and come home together every day!"

"You're the fool."

Ye Fu's eyes widened, "What? Chenghe has already found a partner? Is it true or false? How old are you? So fast? You are not allowed to act like a hooligan. You have to wait a few years..."

"Hahahaha~"

"Hahaha, not allowed to act like a hooligan..."

"You are not allowed to laugh!"

Ye Chenghe's face instantly turned bright red, "I didn't act like a hooligan. We just go to school together and go home together after school."

"That's good. Wait until you graduate from middle school, then let your mother go propose. You're still young now. If you want to find a partner, Ahai should find one first. You don't need to worry; it's still early. Your father didn't get married until he was 18."

"Hahahaha~"

"Not allowed to laugh!"

"We're going to laugh!"

"If you laugh again, I'll throw away all your beads and little paper dolls..."

"Then I'll tell Chen Xiuni that you filled the last page of your book with her name!"

"Shut up!"

Ye Yaodong laughed to death, "Oh my, you're something, Ye Chenghe. Impressive. Heaven closed a door for you, but I didn't expect it to open a window for you."

A Guang also laughed there, "Looks like we'll have to drink Chenghe's wedding wine first."

Ye Chenghe's face turned red down to his neck. Embarrassed and not knowing how to refute, he could only stubbornly argue.

"Don't talk nonsense. We're just classmates."

"We know, we know. Classmates, we all understand."

"I'm not playing with you guys anymore."

After saying that, he swept a few snacks from the table into his arms, wrapped them in his clothes, and ran away quickly.

"I... Ye Chenghe... don't run..."

Ye Chenghai was just about to curse, but seeing the elders there, he quickly stopped and rushed out to chase him...

Ye Chengjiang also quickly chased out, "Ye Chenghe, don't run, that belongs to everyone..."

Ye Chenghu and a few girls also chased out, unwilling to fall behind.

The courtyard suddenly emptied, leaving only Ye Chengyang, Ye Xiaoxi, and Pei Yu staring at each other.

Ye Chengyang looked blankly at the group of people running so fast, "Isn't there still some on the table?"

"They are all fools, don't worry about them. The three of you divide what's left."

Ye Chengyang immediately beamed with joy, dividing the snacks on the table, one for you and one for me, to the two little sisters, and then each had several items in front of them.

"They are all idiots. I'm going to hide them."

After saying that, he quickly hugged the things he divided in his arms and ran upstairs with a thud-thud-thud.

Lin Xiuqing was still calling out from behind, telling him not to hide them in the quilt.

For the next few days, Ye Yaodong went out early and returned late every day, following Ye Fu to set longline fishing gear and catch squid at the same time. The harvest grew day by day, and the fishing season reached its peak.

The village was full of joy from morning to night. The first thing everyone asked when meeting was, how much did you catch today? How many loads did you catch yesterday? And also, what's the price of squid today?

A Guang listened to the village's discussions and was so anxious that his mouth broke out in blisters. He stayed at the shipyard every day, supervising them from morning until evening.

Finally, his supervision worked. The shipyard was annoyed by him watching them all day long, and they didn't dare to delay. Originally, Ye Yaodong asked them to finish repairs within three to five days, but under A Guang's urging, they managed to finish in three days, just in time to catch the peak season.

A Guang didn't need to specifically call Dongzi over to drive the boat. He directly tied the two boats together, one towing the other, and towed them back immediately on the evening they were repaired.

This gave Ye Yaodong and Ye Fu, who were dragging their exhausted bodies back in the evening, quite a surprise. This meant that they had caught up with the peak season, and from tomorrow on, their income could double.

The father and son immediately discussed calling two of the hired boatmen over to work. They had already let them rest for a week, which was enough. They, as the bosses, were still working hard. They had already spent the money, and since the big boat couldn't go, the small boat had work, so it was only right to call them over to work.

It was to prevent unfairness, as the two people would have something to say. They let the four boatmen take turns working with the father and son, two by two, which was equivalent to letting the four of them work one day and rest one day.

The father and son hadn't even had a rest yet.

After the two discussed it properly, Ye Fu looked at A Guang again, "This boat was just driven back, there's nothing on it, it's empty. Your family's baskets were probably all taken out to sea by your father. You can borrow some from Dongzi here later, take as many as you need. For the hand-cast nets, dip nets, and such that you need, go to Dongzi's workshop to take two first. He happened to make several a few days ago and put them there, and there are still some unused ones."

"Okay."

"You probably can't call people temporarily right now. Do you want me to call a younger brother to go with you?" Ye Yaodong also said.

"No need, I'll just take Auntie Ma's eldest son from next door. That child is already sixteen or seventeen and can follow out to sea to work."

"That works too."

Ye Fu also said, "Your father has been out at sea for quite a few days this trip. It's been a week and he hasn't driven back yet."

"I don't know either. I'm also waiting for him to come back. He probably encountered the squid fishing season and can catch a bit in the outer sea. If the harvest is good, he probably can't bear to come back."

"Too hard-working."

Speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrives.

They were just taking advantage of the time after dinner, sitting together discussing tomorrow's trip out to sea, when they heard a younger brother run over to say that the Fengshou had returned.

Several people immediately stood up and walked out, looking out at the sea. Sure enough, there was a boat's light shining there on the sea at this time, which was particularly eye-catching. They quickly headed to the wharf to help receive the cargo together.

Pei Fu was also a bit surprised to see A Guang, but he didn't say much, just directed people to move and unload the cargo first.

The workshop also started to get busy after nightfall. Because the weather was getting hot, so much cargo wasn't suitable for long storage. That same night, Lin Xiuqing called the idle women in the village over to process it.

When Pei Fu finished unloading the cargo, he also told them to go home to settle the accounts. Today happened to be the 30th, and he knew that with the recent fishing season, everyone would definitely be busy during the day the next day.

The Fengshou's earnings this month were exceptionally good. Last month, one share was a little over 500, but this month, one share was nearly 600. Everyone who received money was happy and beaming.

Ye Fu also started to feel that the Fengshou was basking in Dongzi's light. Every time good things appeared, Dongzi took the lion's share, and the Fengshou followed behind to drink a sip of soup, so much so that they earned so much money again this month.

Just listening to it felt incredible, making people feel that this money was too easy to earn. In fact, it wasn't; others couldn't earn it so easily. The element of this kind of great luck was too large.

Ye Yaodong divided another 1,700-plus yuan and happily took it home, letting Lin Xiuqing record the accounts again. Adding the 700-plus divided from the three small boats calculated a few days ago, this month was equivalent to dividing 2,500 in fishing boat profits.

Adding the 7,000-plus in cargo payments received by the workshop this month, and the 20,000 brought back by the Dongsheng a few days ago, they earned a net profit of over 30,000 yuan this month, nearly 40,000. The family's savings also directly broke through 100,000.

He happily leaned over to Lin Xiuqing's side, watching her record the accounts, "Am I impressive? Awesome, right? It's only been a few years, and our family has broken through the 10,000-yuan household, and immediately broke through the 100,000-yuan household."

"Yes, yes, yes, you're impressive, you're awesome, you're already the famous Boss Dong."

"That's right. In a few more years, we'll be millionaires, and we'll be millionaires with a million in cash. Wow, I'm really awesome."

Lin Xiuqing smiled and glanced at him, "You're thinking quite beautifully. You calculate the money you haven't earned yet into your hands all day, and get happy first."

"Of course, being happy in advance doesn't cost money."

"After this wave of squid fishing season ends, we can probably earn another few thousand."

"Right, it's just right that the Fengshou returned in time tonight. I'll ask people to rush to process this batch of cargo brought by the Fengshou tonight and tomorrow during the day. Starting tomorrow, I want to keep the squid back to dry. It's just right to take advantage of the sun recently."

"Are you keeping the cargo from both boats at home?"

"No, it's four boats, including the two from Big Cousin and Brother Asheng. Keep them all back to dry. After their cargo comes ashore, pull it to Acai's place to weigh it, and then send it to the workshop."

"Take advantage of the fact that the price has already started to drop today, and start drying more tomorrow. When it gets close to the end, collect everything from Big Brother and Second Brother's side, and hoard some there."

"Four boats are only five or six thousand jin. You can only dry one or two thousand jin a day, which isn't much. Storing 10,000 jin of dried goods there should be enough to sell until the New Year."

Ye Yaodong just happened to tell her about the plan, and he would go out to give instructions to Big Cousin and Brother Asheng later.

"You decide for yourself. If you want to keep it back to dry, then keep it back to dry. It's just right to take advantage of the fact that the cargo is all processed tomorrow to connect it. Moreover, the Fengshou will probably go out to sea again tomorrow and won't return for nearly a week. The idle workshop can just be arranged."

Lin Xiuqing now controls so much family property and has already begun to trust his arrangements wholeheartedly. Whatever he says to do, she does.

"Okay, save enough 100,000 this year, and we'll definitely save enough 200,000 next year!"

"How can it be that fast?"

"It is that fast. Next year, after we get the fresh-fish boat and the boat we partnered with my three brothers, the speed of earning money will definitely double. It probably won't take 5 years, and it won't be the 90s, but your husband, I, will definitely have a million in savings."

"You're beautiful, just thinking so beautifully."

"Seriously, I'm not dreaming. Everything I said is very possible."

"Wait until you earn it before talking. You go do your own business, I also have to go to the workshop to see them work."

Ye Yaodong walked behind, slowly closing the door, and told the old lady to watch the house, and he would be back in a while.

Who knew that just as he walked to the door, he heard his Big Brother's roar, and his Big Sister-in-law's strong defense.

"Every day you think, you think. You suffered a loss once and still don't know how to learn a lesson. Now you're still here talking nonsense. You didn't join the shares at the time, and now they've divided the money, what are you sour about? What's there to be sour about?"

"Who knew it would be like this? I was just saying it, why are you losing your temper..."

"Don't nag at me. Working all day is already very hard, and I have to listen to you being sour here when I get home. Just live your own life well. Our life is not worse than others, what are you still sour about there?"

"Are you afraid others won't hear if you lower your voice?"

"You're also afraid of losing face, then shut your mouth."

"I'm discussing the shop with you..."

"There's nothing to discuss. We already talked about it two days ago. They all have it in their hands, and we also have it in our hands."

"But selling it to change boats can earn 2,000 yuan a year, which is equivalent to what other families earn in a year..."

"What do you know? We already agreed. You want to go back on your word, how will people look at us? Don't make it difficult for Dongzi and his wife. Calm down. I want to sleep. If you make noise again, go sleep outside yourself, don't come into the room..."

Ye Yaodong stood at the door and listened to a scene. His Second Brother and Ye Ersao were also standing at the door. His Ye Ersao even deliberately tilted her head to lean toward the window. After being pulled by his Second Brother and there was no movement, she smiled at him before she was willing to enter the room.

It was all caused by money. She probably heard his Ye Ersao showing off that they divided money today, so she was uncomfortable and brought up the old matter again.

He didn't care about their business and continued to walk toward the village.

It wasn't very late yet, and the weather had warmed up. Everywhere, people were standing there in twos and threes communicating, and children were laughing and running around.

When the weather gets a bit hotter, there will be more people sitting outside to enjoy the cool and feed the mosquitoes.

He first went to Big Cousin's house, and then went to Brother Asheng's house, but unluckily, he ran into the Second Aunt again. She was pulling Brother Asheng at the door, slandering the new daughter-in-law and speaking ill of her.

As a result, as soon as she saw him, her eyes lit up, and she immediately ran up to pull him.

"Dongzi, why are you here? Quick, quick, quick... come into the room and sit. I heard A Guang helped you drive another boat back tonight? Is it true or false?"

"Has it spread so fast?"

"Oh my, people on the wharf saw it. In the time it takes to eat a meal in the village, everyone knows it. They all say you two each have one, and you're going to earn big money again."

"Hmm."

After Ye Yaodong responded casually, he told Brother Asheng that he wanted to keep all the cargo back to dry tomorrow.

Although the younger brother would go to collect it tomorrow, he still had to give a heads-up in advance.

"You want to dry this again? Then how much money will this sell for? This squid is very expensive. It must sell for several yuan, right? How much money are you earning from those dried fish now?"

"I don't know, I didn't manage it. You have to ask A Qing. If there's nothing else, I'll go first."

"Sigh, wait a minute..." Second Aunt immediately pulled him, "You've added two boats for no reason these past few days, are you going to take them out to rent again? When the big boat is repaired, you should still have to go back to drive the big boat, right?"

Ye Yaodong frowned and said unhappily, "Is my brain caught in the door? It's just the fishing season, and I'm not earning money myself, but renting the boat out?"

"No, I mean, after the fishing season ends, you should rent these two boats out again, right?"

"I've already booked who to rent to. You don't need to worry blindly. If you have this free time, I think it's better for you to eat vegetarian food and worship Buddha more. Instead of believing in those immortals and fairies, it's better to worship Mazu more and pray for Brother Asheng to earn more money and give birth to a son in a few months. That's probably more useful than you worshipping the immortals and asking the fairies."

After Ye Yaodong finished speaking, he pulled his sleeve from his Second Aunt's grasp and walked out.

Second Aunt still wouldn't give up and chased out, wanting to pull him, but was pulled back by Brother Asheng, "Mother, I think Dongzi makes sense. You shouldn't run to those immortals and fairies all day and send money there. It's more useful for you to worship Mazu. Who in the seaside doesn't believe in Mazu, but runs to worship those fairies and immortals all day?"

"What do you know? Those fairies can let the gods possess them, and whatever you ask is effective... it's very divine..."

"I think you should learn from Grandma and worship Mazu Bodhisattva more. Look at Dongzi, Grandma must pray to Mazu Bodhisattva to bless him every day..."

"The old thing is biased, biased to the armpit..."

Ye Yaosheng felt that he couldn't communicate with his mother, so he went directly into the room and locked the door by the way, not letting her in either.

Ye Yaodong was also thinking while walking home, who should he rent the remaining two boats to?

If renting, relatives definitely have priority. He still has several cousins. He can ask his father later. Renting to the uncles his father is on good terms with is also fine. Decide early, to save them from having this idea again.

The squid fishing season made the village active. Everywhere, one could see a busy and prosperous scene. From the second day after he added a boat, his workshop also started to light up all night and rest during the day.

Every night, five or six thousand squid had to be slaughtered. However, squid only needed to be cut with scissors, the belly removed, and spread out to dry, which was much less troublesome than killing fish. Therefore, not many people were needed, and everyone only had to work until midnight before they could go back to sleep.

It was also the next morning that A Guang sent Pei Yu over to keep Ye Xiaoxi company, and then they went out to sea together. Walking and chatting, he only then knew that Old Man Wang had gone to their house again last night.

As a result, he was directly scolded by A Guang with a dark face and driven out.

Then he persuaded his father to find a companion. The aunt next door was quite good, knew the roots and the bottom, and wouldn't be laughed at by others.

"Then what did your father say?"

"My father said it was fine, it's just that he's too busy during this period. After the fishing season passes and everyone is free, he'll ask Auntie Ma to call her two married daughters back, and everyone will sit together for a meal, and that will count as settling the matter. Now he's busy all day long, and it's not the time to talk about this."

Ye Fu nodded, "That's right. Your father is a man with a plan. He already had plans in his heart, but he was embarrassed to shout it out now. After all, the matter hasn't been done yet. If he says it out, in case there are any changes, it will only add more trouble for no reason."

"Right, he said he had an idea in his heart. He knew, no need for me to say more. He definitely wouldn't find my friend's ex-wife back to embarrass me. Saying it out would be embarrassing for himself too. No need to say this out, just thinking about it makes me feel embarrassed."

"That woman's reputation should be even worse. Just divorced, and immediately wants to find a rich old man, and it's still her ex-husband's friend's father."

"Let her go to hell."

"Is there anyone coming to your door to ask to rent a boat?" Ye Yaodong asked curiously.

"Yes, yesterday, the boat just drove back, and someone came to the door immediately. I sent them away directly. No matter what, I have to wait until this fishing season is over first."

"When your father comes back next time, it's better to decide early, to save trouble, and also to have an excuse to send people away."

"Hmm."

What surprised them was that there were really too many shameless people.

When the fishing season was nearing its end and reaching the later stage, the family that A Guang's eldest sister was engaged to before actually had the nerve to come to the door, saying they wanted to repair the relationship and wanted to continue the engagement.

He directly took a stick and beat them out.

As a result, unexpectedly, they came to the door again the next day, shamelessly saying they wanted to rent a boat, and A Guang could decide how to rent it, even buying it was fine.

He continued to beat them out with a stick, and even spat at them several times.

Then on the third day, they actually came to the door to threaten, saying either re-marry, or rent the boat to them. They guaranteed to follow the rules, otherwise they would publicize all over the village that his eldest sister had been slept with.

This completely angered A Guang. That day, he didn't let anyone walk out of the house. Their legs were broken, and they were left lying at the door with blood on their heads. No one was allowed to lift them, no one was allowed to move them.

Because the fishing season hadn't ended yet, he went out early and returned late. To block him, they specifically chose to come to the door early in the morning. If it weren't for the neighbors pulling them, they would probably have been beaten to death.

But he said no one was allowed to move, and really no one dared to go up and move the father and son lying on the ground.

Afraid that they wouldn't die and would go back to spread rumors and bite back, he first told the ins and outs of the matter, giving a preventive shot in advance, which could also reduce the damage in advance.

The fellow villagers listened to him tell the ins and outs, and also despised the father and son lying on the ground. Now no one meddled in other people's business. They deserved to be beaten to death, just let them lie on the ground.

But they really couldn't let people die just like that. Those who knew them and should report the news also ran quickly to report the news. After all, when the two families wanted to get married at the beginning, there were also acquaintances who acted as matchmakers, and there were many relatives walking back and forth between villages.

Early in the morning, this matter also started to spread slowly in a small range in the village.

Ye Yaodong and Ye Fu had already arrived at the wharf and were ready to board the boat, but they happened to hear the discussion of other fishermen. The two looked at each other and planned to go take a look first. Pushing the trip out to sea back by two hours wouldn't be a big problem.

When they went over, a large circle of people was already surrounding the door, three layers inside and three layers outside, all pointing there.

When they squeezed in, they saw A Guang sitting on the steps at the door, holding a stick in his hand, with a fierce look on his face, as if he would hit anyone who approached with a stick.

And his two younger sisters were standing on the side, one still holding Pei Yu, and one with red eyes.

Ye Yaodong and Ye Fu couldn't help but feel fortunate at this time. Fortunately, they didn't do trawling, just set and collected longline fishing gear, and didn't need to go out at night. They could go out in the morning, so they could still stand here at this time.

After he squeezed into the crowd, he also kicked the people lying on the ground who couldn't even scream, and then said to his two younger sisters, "You guys first take Xiao Yu to my house, don't scare the child."

A Guang's complexion also looked a little better. He let his sister take the child away first. Later, when the whole family came, there would still be trouble.

But the two sisters only had the younger one take the child away first, and the older one was still standing in place.

"Tell me what happened?"

"Hmm."

A Guang told the story of the two father and son on the ground coming to the door for three consecutive days with their wishful thinking, and by the way, also said the knot of their breaking defense today.

"Deserved!"

"That really deserves to be beaten to death."

"Is this something that can be taken out and talked nonsense about? Does the girl still need to be a person in the future?"

"Exactly, I heard that she has already been looked at again, just waiting to see the day to settle it. This is deliberately making trouble, and they took a fancy to their family's life getting better and better."

"What kind of people are these? Beasts..."

After Ye Yaodong finished listening to the ins and outs, he also felt that they deserved to be beaten to death. People who deliberately sought death, not letting them die, was simply intolerable by heaven.

"Fortunately, the engagement was broken last year, and their true colors were known early. Otherwise, there would be more suffering in the future. That boat was borrowed well last year. The lost money is just buying a happy life for the second half of life."

"Hmm."

"Are these two dead?" Ye Mu also ran over in a hurry after hearing the rumors in the village.

Several village cadres, as well as several women from the Women's Federation, also came over together. Everyone pointed at the two people on the ground, repeating the ins and outs of the matter to them.

Everyone felt they deserved it, but they couldn't say it out loud, just saying they couldn't beat people to death.

Chen Shuji also squatted down to touch if the people still had breath. Only after they had breath did he feel a little relieved.

As long as people weren't beaten to death, everything was easy to say.

"They are also too much. This is bullying your father for not being at home. Your family only has you as a man. It's too bullying. How important is a girl's reputation, and she is about to get married."

"That's why it's vicious. They thought that ruining my sister's reputation would make her marry you. Phew, I'll support her for a lifetime, and I won't let a toad like you ruin her. If I hear any rumors, I'll abolish your third leg."

The young man lying on the ground shrank, and then groaned in pain again, not knowing when he woke up.

Just at this time, this family also came over from the main road with a large group of people holding tools and aggressively. Originally, A Guang's house was located on the main road, without any cover. Everyone turned their heads and saw it from afar.

"Holy crap? Twenty or thirty people? What is this for? Obviously, they are in the wrong, yet they still dare to put on this posture. Is it bullying our village for having no one? Bringing a pile of tools and running over openly, is it bullying A Guang's family for having few men, or bullying him for living on the side of the highway, and the villagers don't know?"

Just after Ye Yaodong finished shouting, Ye Fu also cooperated and shouted quickly, "Fellow villagers, help out. Obviously, they are in the wrong. We can't watch our own villagers be bullied by people from other villages..."

"Exactly, this is bullying our village for having no one. Two people coming to provoke is one thing, but now a large group of people have brought tools. Do they think the village doesn't know?"

"Everyone also bring tools, so as not to suffer later. We can eat anything in this life, but we can't suffer!"

Ye Mu also patted the younger son of Ma Lifang's family next to her, "You go to the village and call people..."

The half-grown boy ran directly like a loach.

The fellow villagers nearby also ran home one after another, taking shoulder poles, sticks, and brooms, taking out all the tools that could be used at home, and then distributing them to others.

The village committee members saw that people hadn't even met yet, and everyone was aggressively about to have another bloody fight. The village head immediately blocked in front first.

"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. Let's talk to them first, courtesy first and then soldiers, courtesy first and then soldiers. After knowing the ins and outs, if they still dare to make trouble, we will beat them again."

Chen Shuji also quickly followed up, "Right, let's talk about reason first. If the reason can't be talked through, then beat them hard. We can't let people from other villages run to our village to run wild."

"Okay, then let's wait a while..."

"Then wait..."

Everyone stood on the road with weapons, staring at the people coming. The people coming were also aggressive, and they opened their mouths to spray as soon as they met.

"I heard your village people beat my uncle and cousin half to death!"

"Give us an explanation, otherwise, I'm not easy to bully either."

"Exactly, give us an explanation, otherwise we'll make you look good. We are not people who are afraid of things either."

A Guang carried the bloody stick on his shoulder and sneered repeatedly, "You are not afraid of things, and I am not afraid of things either. Those two dog things deserve to be beaten to death. If it weren't for the fellow villagers stopping me, I would have let them see the King of Hell long ago."

"Don't be arrogant, dare to beat our family..."

"We have to talk about reason. It was these two people who were in the wrong first..."

Chen Shuji quickly interrupted them who were pointing sticks and making harsh words.

They hadn't even started talking for two sentences, and they started pointing with tools. If they didn't stop them, they would have to start fighting directly without even talking.

He quickly told the ins and outs of the matter he had just heard and the cause of the fermentation of the matter. During this period, A Guang didn't say a word, just stared at the group of people on the opposite side.

After listening to Chen Shuji's words, the other side was silent for a while, but the old woman inside pushed through the crowd and jumped out, shouting unconvinced.

"Everyone don't listen to him, it's just them talking nonsense. We just wanted to come to the door to rent a boat, and as a result, we were beaten. Who wants that broken flower and willow, who knows who she slept with, my son..."

A Guang held the stick in his hand and poked it straight at the position of the woman's nose and mouth, directly poking her whole person backward.

Ye Yaodong held the shoulder pole of A Guang's family in his hand and slapped the old woman's face directly, even hitting her head to the side.

The big battle was directly on the verge of breaking out. The two sides directly greeted each other's ancestors for eighteen generations and started fighting.

Originally, there could have been room for good talk, but who knew that an old woman with a mouth full of dirty words would jump out, directly angering A Guang. Once this started, it directly opened a melee.

The women on both sides also retreated from their melee and aimed at the opposite side.

Ye Mu also rushed up to grab the hair of the old woman who had just slandered her, grabbing and pinching.

Because it was on the territory of their own village, the men might have gone out to sea, but most of the women were still at home. Moreover, which rural woman doesn't love to watch the fun? The farce at A Guang's door in the morning had long attracted a large group of women, more than men.

This group of women simply crushed the three or five women on the opposite side and beat them up, and could also split half of the people to take tools to help the men fight.

Although the men on the opposite side looked numerous, they really didn't have an advantage in numbers, and the fight was somewhat evenly matched.

But after a while, the younger son of Auntie Ma's family brought a series of villagers with tools and ran over. Everyone ran, shouted, and scolded.

The people from other villages fought halfway, turned their heads and looked, and saw more than twice as many people as themselves rushing towards them with tools. Everyone was timid.

Originally, they brought tools over to embolden themselves, just in case, but the most important thing was that they wanted to ask for an explanation, and by the way, take the people away.

So when they just came over, they directly opened their mouths and let A Guang and the others give an explanation first. Who knew that they would start fighting as soon as they disagreed, without even saying two sentences.

"Retreat, retreat, retreat, retreat, retreat, so many people..."

"Run, run, run quickly..."

"So many people..."

"Hurry up and leave first, leave first..."

The group of people who were originally evenly matched immediately became chaotic. Once this became chaotic, they could only be beaten. They fought while running in the opposite direction.

Before the villagers ran close, they had already disappeared, and several shoes had been run off.

"They ran just like that?"

"This is too useless, right?"

"Running faster than a rabbit, and they still dare to run to our village to run wild like this?"

"The most hateful is this old woman, spraying dung with a full mouth. No wonder the whole family is not good goods. The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. Whoever gets involved with their family is really having eight lifetimes of bad luck..." Ye Mu was still sitting on the old woman and slapping her face.

"Don't hit, don't hit..."

"Don't hit? I'm hitting you. Do you eat shit every day? Your mouth is so smelly when you talk!"

Ye Yaodong walked over and also smiled and looked at the several women lying on the ground, "The men have all run away, but the women have all stayed behind. They are probably all one family. It's just right to pile them together with those two, and the whole family is reunited."

"Drag them together, they will definitely come to ask for people later."

"Still coming?" Ye Mu was surprised, "Are they not afraid of death?"

"This whole family is lying here, they will definitely come again. Otherwise, how to drag them back?"

"Then we will wait here and see when they come."

Ye Fu also said to the village head and the secretary, "I have to trouble you not to leave first, help support the scene here. Otherwise, if more people come later, we should be bullied to death. We can't let them be arrogant and run to our village territory to make trouble."

"Good, good, we will wait here first, but you have to listen to me, don't be so impulsive, especially A Guang..."

"How can this blame A Guang? Obviously, this old woman is spraying dung with a full mouth. Otherwise, everyone could have talked well. Where would they fight? This dead bitch, old witch, must be her who incited the father and son to come to the door to take advantage. Otherwise, where would today's matter come from..." Ye Mu said while kicking twice more.
