Chapter 1209

The couple's biggest hobby now is counting money.

After there was more money, there was no way to move it all out to count every time, so they relied on recording the amount of each income and expenditure, and then summarizing it.

But they didn't know until they counted, and they were shocked when they counted.

After they counted the money brought back today, they recorded a sum in the small account book at home, and added it to the accounts recorded in Aqing's previous account book, he now actually had nearly 300,000 on hand again.

Clearly, when they calculated it two months ago, it was still over 250,000, and he took another 50,000 to join the partnership with Fang Jingfu, leaving only over 200,000 on the family's books. It had only been 3 months, and it had actually accumulated so much again.

After Ye Yaodong waited for Lin Xiuqing to finish reporting the number, he was stunned for a moment, and then let out a long sigh of relief.

"This is all my hard work leading to prosperity..."

Lin Xiuqing said with a smile, "Stop flattering yourself."

"You can't deny this fact."

"Yes, yes, yes, it's all your hard work leading to prosperity."

Ye Yaodong also laughed happily, "It's also thanks to your contribution at home, otherwise, how could we have accumulated such a large family fortune? If I had encountered other spendthrift women, it would really be that what I earned wouldn't be enough to pay off debts."

"As long as you know it, keep it up, we have hope for our retirement."

"It really made my retirement at 30 come true."

Thinking about it, he felt beautiful inside.

"Now that the business is spread so large, you can't stop even if you want to, so many people behind us are still waiting to rely on us for food."

"I'm just saying that, if I really retired, wouldn't I be bored to death? There are still fifty or sixty years to go, and by then the money won't be enough to spend."

"You always say that, always saying money is depreciating, depreciating, but I haven't seen where it's depreciating."

"How could it be so fast? If it depreciated and became worthless now, our country's economy would collapse directly."

Lin Xiuqing shook her head, "I don't understand what you're saying. I'll put the money away first. After you come back from Wenzhou in a few days, let's take some of the small change at home to the bank to exchange it. There's too much small change, there's nowhere to put it."

"Hmm, let's talk about it after I come back from Wenzhou in two days."

After the couple finished counting the money, their depressed mood caused by the naughty kids also improved.

Seeing smiles on her parents' faces, Ye Xiaoxi's courage grew, and she dared to come over to hug and cuddle.

She giggled and threw herself onto Lin Xiuqing's back, taking a small hair clip and clipping it onto her head.

Lin Xiuqing also smiled and hugged her from behind, "Forgot I just spanked you, and you still dare to come over?"

Hearing this, Ye Xiaoxi remembered how miserably she had just been spanked, and her bottom was still throbbing with pain, so she immediately whimpered and got off her back, running into Ye Yaodong's arms to sit.

Then she took the other clips in her hand and clipped them one by one onto Ye Yaodong's head.

She laughed happily as she clipped, her eyes curving into crescents.

"Pretty, pretty~"

"I'm a man, what does it look like for you to clip hair clips on me like this?"

After he finished speaking, he reached out to take them off, but Ye Xiaoxi slapped his hand away.

"Don't take them off, it looks very pretty like this."

Ye Yaodong laughed and hugged her, letting her mess around.

Lin Xiuqing also watched the father and daughter with a smile, "I'll make you some malted milk, drink it and go to sleep."

"No, no, I still want to play."

"Do you want to eat the whip again?"

"Hmph, bad guy."

She turned her head, wrinkled her nose and glared at Lin Xiuqing, then pulled open Ye Yaodong's sweater and burrowed her head into his arms.

"What are you doing, you're going to tear my clothes..."

Ye Yaodong couldn't stop her, so he just watched his sweater bear the weight of the bundle it shouldn't have been bearing.

"Haha... we're wearing one piece of clothing..."

Lin Xiuqing watched the father and daughter with a smile, scolded them not to tear the clothes, and turned to go out to make her malted milk.

When she came back in, the father and daughter were still playing around. Ye Yaodong's head was full of colorful hair clips, and even small dragonflies were tied on several of them. It looked ridiculous no matter how you looked at it, and Ye Xiaoxi's laughter hadn't stopped.

She said with a smile, "Your hair is growing really fast, you'll have to shave it in a couple of days for the New Year."

Ye Yaodong also touched the small tufts on his head, "Actually, it's not growing that fast, no need to shave it, right? It's cold, keeping some hair is warmer."

When the New Year comes, he can also put on some mousse to be stylish, so he doesn't have to look gray-faced every day.

"Whatever you want, as long as you don't shave your hair in the first lunar month."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Ye Xiaoxi again, "Come over and drink it quickly so I can sleep. After you drink it, go pee. If you wet the bed again tonight, I'll beat you to death."

Ye Xiaoxi crawled over and peeked at her with small eyes, feeling a bit guilty, then finished it in one gulp, and even stuck out her small tongue to lick her upper lip.

"Did she wet the bed?"

"She wet it the day before yesterday and the day before that. I spanked her once, and she was fine yesterday."

"So she still needs to be disciplined."

"Hmph hmph..."

"Go pee by yourself quickly, get on the bed after you pee, I'm going to turn off the lights."

"Got it..."

Ye Yaodong reached out to take off the hair clips on his head and untie the rubber bands, but was stopped by Ye Xiaoxi, so he had to lie down and sleep with a head full of rubber bands and hair clips.

He figured he would untie them after she fell asleep, but Ye Xiaoxi reached out and touched his head from time to time to prevent him from secretly untying them, so he had to sleep like that for now.

In the pitch-black night, the father and daughter were still moving around and making a fuss. Lin Xiuqing could only smile and urge them to be a little more honest.

Watching the interaction between the two, she felt it was very loving. It was rare for him to be so patient with the children and let her be reckless.

Early the next morning, Ye Yaodong was depressed by his own hair.

Just after getting up, he hadn't reacted yet and went directly to the door of his house to brush his teeth. As a result, Ye Chenghai passed by his door and took a look, his eyes widening as he laughed out loud.

"Third Uncle, you're so funny... come quickly, Third Uncle is so funny..."

Ye Yaodong was brushing his teeth, his mouth full of foam, unable to speak, and could only look puzzled as he clutched his stomach and laughed, calling his friends over to the door to watch the fun.

"Haha... Third Uncle..."

One by one, they didn't think it was a big deal to watch the fun, and they ran in and squatted in front of him in a row, leaning in close and laughing.

Ye Yaodong watched as their eyes were all looking at the top of his head, and he quickly reacted. He put down his water cup and touched his head.

"Damn it..."

Foam sprayed out of his mouth. He couldn't care about rinsing his mouth, waving his hands and shouting vaguely at them, "Get out, get out, get out... you have such big guts, you dare to laugh at me? Do you still want your New Year money in a couple of days?"

"Hahaha... Third Uncle, you look so funny, can I help you take a picture?"

Ye Yaodong was annoyed and embarrassed, stretching out his feet to kick them, but they all ran around the courtyard laughing out loud.

"Come on, come on~"

"Third Uncle, if you have the ability, come out... haha..."

"You guys just wait!"

Lin Xiuqing had just returned from patrolling the workshop and heard Ye Yaodong arguing with a group of children, making a fuss together.

When she walked to the courtyard gate, she also knew why these children were running around in her courtyard, mocking him.

Ye Yaodong at this time had a head full of colorful hair clips, plus tufts of colorful rubber bands, and individual loose hairs sticking up, plus a mouth full of toothpaste foam. It really looked ridiculous no matter how you looked at it.

"Hehe, why are you still wearing these hair clips and rubber bands without taking them off?"

"How would I know? I haven't looked in the mirror since I woke up. Hurry up and drive them out and lock the door, my lifelong reputation has been ruined."

Lin Xiuqing couldn't stop laughing, but she did as she was told, driving out all the children who were still giggling in the courtyard.

Looking up, she saw two heads sticking out of the window upstairs.

In an instant, the smile on her face vanished, and she glared angrily at the upstairs.

"You two woke up and aren't planning to come down, right? Don't let me catch you, I'll beat you until you can't get out of bed later."

The window slammed shut instantly.

Ye Chenghu and Ye Chengyang were woken up by the laughter downstairs, which is why they stuck their heads out to watch the fun.

At this moment, looking at their mother's fierce eyes, they knew this matter hadn't blown over, and they were all a bit scared.

Ye Chengyang was worried to death, "What to do... Mom still remembers..."

Ye Chenghu didn't care and lay back on the bed, "Anyway, I just won't go out."

"But I want to pee..."

Hearing this, Ye Chenghu immediately sat up again, "I want to pee too..."

"I can't hold it anymore..."

"Don't make noise, if you didn't say it, I wouldn't want to pee! It's all your fault."

"What to do..."

Ye Yaodong watched Lin Xiuqing tilt her head and glare upstairs, and also knew that the two little brats were peeking. He hurriedly rinsed his mouth clean and went into the room to look in the mirror.

"Oh my, miscalculation, I wanted to untie them last night, but I fell asleep. This stinky girl, she messed up my hair like this, how can I go out and see people like this?"

"It would be fine if you shaved it off."

Ye Yaodong untied the hair clips on his head one by one and then went to untie the rubber bands. After they were all untied, his hair also had its own ideas, standing up arbitrarily.

He took a comb and combed it several times, pressing it again and again, but it still stood up, as if it had been struck by lightning.

"Damn this hair, how can I go with you to send New Year gifts? This would be so embarrassing, you wouldn't have any face either."

"That's why I told you to shave it off."

He was a bit reluctant, "Forget it, I'll wash my hair. I just washed it two days ago and have to wash it again, I hate washing my hair the most, it's cold."

Lin Xiuqing rolled her eyes, "Then save it for a week before washing it. I've already packed everything and am ready, just waiting for you to get up and leave."

"Are you taking the kids?"

"I'll take the little one, I'll deal with the two big ones when I get back."

Sure enough, women are narrow-minded. A whole night had passed and she still hadn't forgotten this, she was very good at settling scores later.

"Okay, then I'll save it a bit more, I'll wash it on New Year's Eve, just in time to wash it for the New Year. I'll go eat first, and go after eating. I'll wear a hat to block my hair for a few days, anyway, I'll be wearing a hat when riding the bike on the road."

Lin Xiuqing said angrily, "Just be lazy to death. I'm going to call the kids to get up."

"It's so cold, who washes their hair every two or three days, it's so troublesome..." Ye Yaodong was still quibbling.

"Whatever..."

Just at this moment, Ye Father's furious voice sounded outside the house!

"Who? Who is pouring water? Who is so lacking in virtue? Pouring from upstairs early in the morning..."

Ye Mother was surprised by the sudden situation and hurriedly retreated to the side, looking up.

But she only saw two streams of water still flowing down, and the source was two little ding-dongs.

"Ah, it's pee, the two little coffins..."

Ye Father was shocked and angry, avoiding to the side, and also looked up. The two streams of water were still flowing down with a splash.

From the time he was splashed with pee to the time Ye Mother reacted, and then to the time he reacted himself, it was less than three seconds.

The two boys upstairs were also startled by the surveillance downstairs, and the water droplets stopped immediately, but they couldn't control the backflow. It stopped for a moment, and then continued to pee, but they were panicked on the surface.

"What to do... we peed on someone... it seems to be Grandpa and Grandma..."

"It's all your fault, didn't you say there was no one?"

"I looked before I peed, there was no one downstairs."

"What to do? Mom was already very angry last night, will she beat us all later?"

"What to do..."

The two boys were scared to death. After they finished peeing, they hurriedly put it away, closed the window, and jumped down from the table.

They were panicked to death, circling in the room, worried about being beaten to death.

Not long after, Ye Chengyang listened to the movement downstairs and hurriedly lay down, his ears against the floor, intending to listen to the movement downstairs.

Ye Father was furious, his whole person was like a bull, burning with rage.

"These two little coffins actually peed down from the window, I'm going to beat them to death..."

"Ah, what kind of character, so naughty, so small and already like this, what will happen when they grow up? Must give them a fierce beating..."

Ye Yaodong and Lin Xiuqing heard the movement outside and came out to take a look, only to see Ye Father and Ye Mother both looking up, glaring at the window upstairs, wanting to glare a hole into the window.

"What's wrong?"

The two brothers and sisters-in-law next door were also asking what was wrong, and while asking, they circled into their courtyard gate.

Ye Father's head was wet, and water was still dripping from his hair.

"The good son you gave birth to, standing on the window peeing, peeing all over my head and face!"

Ye Father had a belly full of anger with nowhere to vent, so he could only vent it on his own son, while wiping his face, and then shook his hands in disgust.

"It stinks to death, a smell of stinky pee."

Ye Yaodong couldn't help but laugh out loud for a moment, "No way? Good thing I finished brushing my teeth and came in in time."

The two brothers and two sisters-in-law at the door also couldn't help but laugh, and understood what had happened.

"You still laugh, why don't you drag those two little brats out and beat them? So naughty, whose child stands on the window and pees? What if they fall down?"

"Can't get in, the two of them were beaten by someone last night, so they hid in the room and locked the door. They didn't dare to come down today, so they could only stand on the window to pee."

"Their skin is itching, you weren't home yesterday, and you don't know how crazy they were." Ye Mother also scolded.

Ye Father was even angrier. It turned out to be overnight boy's pee, no wonder the smell of pee was so strong.

Lin Xiuqing also frowned and scolded, "The two of them really have itchy skin, they must be beaten. They actually dared to climb onto the table and pee out the window."

"Must give them a fierce beating, how old are they, they don't even know what should be done and what shouldn't be done. Good thing it's boy's pee, what if it was something else..."

Lin Xiuqing hurriedly appeased Ye Father, "Dad, you go in and wash your face first."

Ye Father entered the house angrily, and continued to scold after entering, "Drag the two little brats out, they dare to hide after causing trouble."

Ye Yaodong also felt that the two boys had to be beaten. Peeing on someone was one thing, but standing on the window to pee, what if they didn't stand firm and fell down?

"Dad, you go wash your hair and face first, I'll go pick the lock."

"Hmm."

Ye Father waited for Ye Mother to fetch him water with a stinky face.

"Didn't get to eat rice, but ate pee first. You're also unlucky, being splashed with pee early in the morning, good thing it's boy's pee."

"Can you speak?"

"Doesn't everyone say boy's pee can cure internal injuries? It's fine."

"Since it's so good, why don't you come and get splashed and try? Why did you hide just now?"

"Do you think I'm the same as you? Hurry up and wash one first."

Ye Father scolded while fetching water, washing his face first before washing his hair.

Ye Yaodong had already taken the tools upstairs to pick the lock.

The two boys were lying on the floor listening to the sound downstairs, scared to death, panicked.

"What to do? Dad is coming to pick the lock..."

"It's over, it's over..."

"Shall we open the door and rush out? Otherwise, when Dad picks the lock, he'll definitely beat us even worse, and the lock will be broken."

"Then it's better to just open the door and admit our mistake."

"And then take the opportunity to run away?"

"Sigh..."

"Coming, coming, Dad is picking the lock outside..."

The two of them immediately became like ants on a hot pot again.

Ye Chengyang stomped his foot, struggling, and stuck to the door again, "Dad, I'm opening the door now, can you not beat me?"

"What do you think?"

"Then can you beat me a little less?"

"What do you think?"

"Then... then can you beat me a little lighter?"

"Hmph, now you know you're afraid. Hurry up and open the door for me. If I pick the lock, I'll break your legs. You dare to waste a lock, see how we deal with you. Wait a moment for a mixed triple beating."

"It's all Brother's fault, he kept saying there was no one downstairs."

Ye Chenghu was angry, "You were the one who urged me to climb up and pee!"

"You were also desperate to pee..."

"If you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have been desperate..."

The two brothers argued as they spoke.

Ye Yaodong knocked on the door, "I'll count to three. If you haven't opened the door, you're dead when I pick the lock. I just came back last night and don't have that much energy to manage you, but today I have plenty of time, I must get you out."

The two brothers were scared and didn't dare to make a sound.

Lin Xiuqing's voice also came from behind the door, "1... 2..."

The two felt that these two seconds were exceptionally difficult and exceptionally tormenting. Their mother was waiting outside, so this beating was unavoidable.

"3..."

Ye Chengyang said with a crying voice, tears falling down, "I... I'm opening the door right now..."

Ye Chenghu was too scared to stop him, hurriedly running to the bed, pulling the quilt, and wrapping himself tightly.

The door was opened at once, and Ye Chengyang hid behind the door, not daring to move or make a sound.

The couple, one holding a rattan cane and the other holding a whip, saw the bulging lump on the bed, walked toward the bed, and pulled the quilt.

"Get out here. I wanted to give you a fierce beating last night, and this morning you dared to stand on the window and pee, and even peed on your grandfather. Do I have to beat you to death? Don't want your little ding-dongs anymore."

Lin Xiuqing said while lifting the quilt, and saw Ye Chenghu arching his body, covering his crotch, shouting with a crying voice.

"No, I want to keep it to pee..."

Ye Yaodong's whip landed on his bottom first. He had just woken up and hadn't put on clothes yet, only wearing long underwear, just right for a beating.

"Ah!" He straightened his body and crawled forward two more steps..

The couple's mixed double beating fell one after another.

"No, it hurts so much, why are you both beating me, Yangyang, there's also Yangyang..."

"Right, how come one is missing?"

Ye Yaodong turned his head to look everywhere, but didn't see Ye Chengyang, but heard the sound of going downstairs.

"This one is cunning, where did he hide just now, he ran away..."

Ye Chenghu cried while dodging the beating, jumping around on the bed, crying with snot and tears, "Why are you beating me again."

"I'll deal with you first, and deal with him later."

"Damn Yangyang, he ran away again, ah, it hurts, it hurts..."

The couple didn't hold back this time. If they didn't beat them fiercely, the children wouldn't remember the lesson.

Ye Yaodong felt he was in the way jumping around on the bed, reached out to grab him, then pressed him onto the bed board, and took off his pants to make it easier for Lin Xiuqing to whip him.

Ye Chenghu's screams grew louder and louder, tears and snot flowing, and the bed sheet was soaked with tears.

Lin Xiuqing was panting from the beating, and only stopped when she saw red welts all over his bottom.

"Behave yourself. If you're not good next time, I'll beat you to death. It's almost New Year, don't force me to beat people during the New Year."

Ye Chenghu cried wuwuwu.

Ye Yaodong added another critical hit, "All your New Year money for this year is gone."

He cried even more sadly and loudly, "No..."

"Who told you not to open the door last night? Otherwise, you would have been beaten last night, and nothing would have happened today."

"Ah~"

"I'm starving to death, I didn't eat rice when I got up early in the morning, and I still have to do physical labor. Don't you dare step out of this door today, just stay at home honestly."

Ye Chenghu cried wuwu.

The couple finished beating one and prepared to find the second one. After going downstairs, they asked Ye Mother who was washing dishes.

"Where is Yangyang?"

"Hiding in the old lady's room, he even went to the door to shout for people just now, to find the old lady back, this one is actually smart."

"It's useless to find anyone today, he's just cunning and has many tricks."

The old lady walked in slowly from the door with a cane, smiling and saying, "Why are you beating the children early in the morning? Aren't you in a hurry to send New Year gifts?"

"You don't know what good deeds they've done!" Ye Father's residual anger hadn't subsided, his speech was still aggressive, explaining his encounter this morning to the old lady.

"These two must be beaten, if they aren't beaten, they can go to heaven."

The old lady also felt that they should indeed be beaten after hearing it.

"They indeed must be beaten, they actually dared to lie on the table and pee out the window, what if they fell down? Actually doing such a dangerous thing, they must be beaten."

This time she didn't protect them either. If she protected them, it would be harming them.

Not long after, Ye Chengyang's crying and shouting also came from the old lady's room.

Ye Chenghu lay upstairs, feeling comfortable listening to it.

Ye Xiaoxi also got up with sleepy eyes hearing the movement, standing at the door, "What's wrong, did Brother cry?"

The old lady walked toward her, smiling and touching her head, "Brother wasn't good and got beaten. You were beaten yesterday, so you don't need to be beaten today. Come, let me put clothes on you, and we'll go to Grandma's house looking pretty later."

Ye Xiaoxi originally shrank back hearing about being beaten, feeling scared, but became happy again hearing she was going to Grandma's house.

"Okay, okay, going to Grandma's house, going to ride in a car to Grandma's house..."

"I want the small hair clip, the one Dad bought yesterday... so pretty..."

"Great-Grandma, help me tie it prettily, I'll share two with you..."

Ye Xiaoxi excitedly pulled the old lady's hand and dragged her into the room, "Eh... where are my hair clips? Where did they go?"

She searched all over the bed but didn't find them. After being forced by the old lady to put on her clothes, she immediately climbed down from the bed and ran to ask Lin Xiuqing.

"Didn't I clip them onto your Dad's head last night?"

Ye Xiaoxi turned her head to look at Ye Yaodong's afro, and remembered, "Dad, where are my hair clips?"

"On the table."

The old lady had already gotten the hair clips, holding a comb in her hand, and beckoned to her, "Come quickly, let me tie them prettily for you."

Ye Xiaoxi hopped over immediately, extremely happy.

After the old lady combed her hair, she even narcissistically looked in the mirror again and again.

Then she asked the old lady to bend over and lower her head, and she took two red hair clips and clipped them onto the old lady's head randomly.

"Pretty!"

The old lady also laughed happily and didn't take them off.

"So good, you even know how to be filial to me."

"Hmm hmm, I'm the best, I want to show my new hair clips to my sisters."

After speaking, she ran out, in a hurry to show off, and didn't even turn her head when the old lady called from behind for her to eat first.

It wasn't until the couple finished beating the younger son and brought him back that she sat on the chair and ate obediently.

Having just been beaten yesterday and remembering it, and seeing her brother get beaten with her own eyes, she ate this meal extremely honestly.

Ye Yaodong intentionally said to the two sons, saying loudly, "Finished eating? After finishing, we'll ride the motorcycle to Grandma's house to send New Year gifts, and collect New Year money by the way!"

Ye Xiaoxi cheered happily in cooperation.

"Not taking your two brothers, as an overnight punishment. You'll have red envelopes later, but the two brothers won't have any."

The two people upstairs and downstairs cried even more sadly. They originally had a chance to go to Grandma's house to play for a day and collect red envelopes.

Ye Father also said, "We don't need to give any this year, it just happens to save two red envelopes, and I can smoke for two more months."

Ye Mother smiled, "Hurry up and go, don't waste time."

"Riding the motorcycle is fast."

"Let's go, let's go, don't take Brother..." Ye Xiaoxi couldn't wait to run out and lift the nylon bag covering the motorcycle, then squeezed into the sidecar with a group of dogs.

Lin Xiuqing chased out from the house and put on her hat, scarf, and gloves.

At this time, there was someone lying on the window upstairs looking eagerly.

Ye Xiaoxi saw it and waved her hand wearing red gloves at the window.

Lin Xiuqing looked at her movement and also turned her head to look, "Serves you right!"

Ye Yaodong also turned his head to look, and then looked down at the pile of dogs in the sidecar, wanting to scoop them out one by one, but after scooping one out, another jumped in, and there was simply no way to deal with them.

"What to do about this?"

"They also know where it's warm. This nylon bag is wrapped up and doesn't blow in the wind, isn't it more comfortable than a dog kennel?"

"Can't get them down, don't know what's going on, they all like to stay here one by one, is it hereditary?"

"Then take them? Bring them back when we return? Just right to squeeze with your daughter, it'll be warmer."

"Okay then, let's take them. If they can't come back, just leave them there as wild dogs."

"Wang wang wang..."
