Chapter 1228: Too Pitiful

~11 min read 2,069 words

It makes no sense that he would still be afraid of others coming to borrow money.

People who have no money are not afraid, but people who have money are worried every day, afraid of those who have no money coming to the door. What kind of logic is this?

His mother is also overreacting.

Things that have no shadow have already been torn apart, and they have already had a fight.

People haven't done anything yet, they have already had internal chaos themselves, really, what a big deal, lunch is not delicious.

Ye Yaodong went to the town pier to refuel and add ice first. After returning, his father had already notified others to go to sea at night, and the other three boats were also busy.

Halfway back, he watched other boats also open up and prepare.

And Lin Xiuqing, after eating, was also preparing rice, flour, grain, oil, and vegetables to take on the boat at home.

Vegetables are ready-made and cut from the ground, such as cauliflower, cabbage, Chinese cabbage, cutting two or three baskets is enough to eat.

When he got home, the yard was already full of supplies, just call the workers to move them to the boat.

However, just when everyone was pushing carts back and forth on the pier to move and work, Ye Fu leaned over, his expression a bit hesitant.

Ye Yaodong originally didn't want to ask, but his father kept leaning towards him, and the appearance of wanting to say something but not saying it was the most annoying.

"What are you doing? If the money is hot and uncomfortable, then return it to me, so you don't have to be uncomfortable."

"Ah? No... not this... not this..."

"Then which one? They don't recognize the account, and didn't give you the money?"

"Neither, it's just that this boat of yours hasn't been docked at the pier? Before, let A Liang and the others transport goods back and forth to the city. Now they have received the goods in the city. Is this boat unnecessary to keep docked at the pier and waste?"

"Who wants to rent this boat? So you are embarrassed for this matter? What is there to be embarrassed about? I won't rent this boat first. There are already so many boats released, so I have to keep one in my hand. What if there are any arrangements later? Moreover, coming to pick up goods back and forth every three days, and having to transport goods to the boat yourself, it is not good to always drive other people's boats. It is most convenient to have a boat in your own hand."

The rented boat is not good to take to pick up goods yourself. Occasionally once or twice is fine, and long-term is also oil money.

Besides, his fresh-receiving boat is coming soon. This boat is big, more than 30 meters, and the tonnage is heavy, and the draft is deep. When the time comes, it can only dock at the deep-water port in the town and cannot enter their village.

Still have to rely on his own small boat to drive to the town to pick up goods, roughly next month's matter.

Renting for a month, there is no need at all.

Ye Fu was immediately relieved, "I also refused directly, saying that docking at the pier is only temporary, and you have other uses."

"Who asked you, making you so embarrassed?"

"Sigh, it's Afan. If your eldest uncle came to mention it himself, I would be too lazy to pay attention to him. When Afan came over this afternoon, you just happened to drive the boat to refuel and add ice, and he begged me, saying it was sad, crying with a nose and tears, and kept repenting. Sigh, I only said you had other plans, and it was only temporarily docked there recently."

"Oh."

"Your mother's relatives have rented our family's boats, or work for the fishing boats of you three brothers, looking at a red and fiery scene. My side of the relatives and your cousins, looking cold and clear..."

Ye Yaodong said unhappily, "Aren't we looking at character first? Where is there any special bias? It's just priority, so you don't have to worry about it, anyway, there is no extra."

"Well, I just see that his life has not been good these two years, and people come to the door every three days. The big one is still in prison, and the pressure has to be carried by him. Unfortunately, he can't earn money. Even though it is deserved, who let him have the bad idea of making quick money, but he is a person in his thirties or forties, crying like that in front of me..."

Ye Yaodong couldn't help but hold his forehead, "Then what are you doing telling me these?"

This has nothing to do with it, pulling him to talk, is he wanting him to sympathize, or wanting him to help, or wanting him to do what?

"Nothing, just have some feelings, say two sentences..."

"If my mother hears it, she will scold you to death."

"Your mother has no human touch. If you tell her, she will say it is deserved."

"You'd better go do your work, don't shake in front of me, it's better not to say it."

"Then I have no one to talk to, so I can only talk to you."

"You also know that telling these to others will make people hate it? If you feel that people are pitiful, then you should pity them yourself, don't say it out to make others worry. You are treating me as a trash can, and complaining to me."

Although he didn't cheat him and didn't become enemies with him, he couldn't help with anything. Before building the workshop, he could give a job. Now he doesn't need manpower, and there is no extra boat.

Telling him a pile of how pitiful people are is of no use, it only makes him feel that his father is really annoying.

"Forget it, don't talk, don't talk, I just have some feelings, so I talk to you."

"You also know, then you think that all the relatives on Mom's side take advantage, and your relatives here don't take advantage. Okay, okay, you watch them move goods, I'm going back."

"Well... hey wait..."

Ye Fu pulled him again and asked, "Only Asheng sent the money from your Second Uncle's family, and the others didn't send it in the afternoon. Are they going to renege?"

Ye Yaodong asked back unhappily, "What do you think?"

"Definitely, dragging it without giving it, I am embarrassed to ask for those few yuan, and then it is left unsettled."

"Then isn't it quite good? Even 4 yuan is reluctant to return, and still want to come to the door to borrow money to smuggle abroad? Where is the face?"

"Ah, that's right, then it must be sent over later."

Ye Yaodong patted his forehead, really can't help his father.

Soft-hearted, but with a pile of small thoughts.

"Leave it to you to watch."

Grave sweeping on Qingming is in the morning, and there are relatively few grave sweeping in the afternoon. They are all early and not late, so there is a group of running children at his door at this time, all calculating how many grave cakes they begged for today.

"Chenghu, does your family still distribute money next year? Is your father too rich?"

"It's all fake. My father usually has no money, just like me, he has to ask my mother."

"Really? My family is all decided by my father."

"Sigh, my father was driven out by my grandfather and grandmother at noon, and could only squat at the door to eat. The dogs at home have to grab his food."

Ye Yaodong: "..."

"Your father is too pitiful..."

"Yes, my father is super pitiful, he still has to write homework like me, and if he doesn't finish it, he has no food."

"Ah? Why do adults still have to write homework?"

"I don't know, my father still has to go to school. My mother said that if I don't study hard now, when I grow up, I will have to go to school in the dark like my father, and I will have to go to school when I marry a wife, and I will have to write homework every day."

Other children shivered.

"Really? This is too terrible, your father is so old and still has to go to school?"

Ye Chenghu sighed, "Yes, my father is too pitiful, fortunately he is not in the same school as me, otherwise it would be too shameful."

"Is it shameful for you or your father?"

"Of course it's shameful for me... ah Dad... are you back?"

Ye Chenghu turned his head and saw that the person speaking was Ye Yaodong, he hurriedly stood up.

Ye Yaodong slapped him on the back of the head, "Itchy skin, what rumors are you spreading? I will make you more pitiful than me in a while, get in."

Saying that, he dragged his clothes and wanted to drag him in.

"Don't, I didn't say anything wrong."

"Ten pages of big characters, and read the whole language book to me."

"It was Mom who said, raising an extra son, you are her eldest son..."

"I can beat you into a grandson, do you believe it?"

Ye Chenghu immediately slumped his shoulders and stopped struggling, but recovered after a while.

"You have to write too, Mom asked me to supervise you, you also have to write. You have to go to sea at night, you have to write for a few days..."

"You have the ability!"

"Mom said."

"Take chicken feathers as an arrow..."

"Mom has the final say! I only need to write one page a day, you have to write ten pages. You don't follow the rules, I don't want to write either. It was clearly agreed that I supervise you, we write together, one page a day."

Ye Yaodong was a bit lifting a stone and hitting his own foot, reversing the heaven and earth.

Lin Xiuqing also heard the movement of the father and son at the door at home, and smiled and put the paper and pen on the dining table for them.

"Your son is right, since you want to practice calligraphy, you can't fish for three days and dry the net for two days. Since it's agreed to be one page a day, then make up for the ones you weren't at home."

"Are you serious?" Ye Yaodong looked at the fountain pen in front of him with a big head.

He really just wanted to practice casually.

He suspected that Lin Xiuqing was deliberately watching his joke, deliberately wanting to toss him.

Ye Chenghu was a bit triumphant, "I only need to write one page, you have to write ten pages, the one who writes ten pages is you."

Lin Xiuqing tapped the table, "Write, you are an active member of the Party—President Ye, don't forget your ideological report."

"Damn it... pitted myself, why did I want to join the Party, with my level..." Ye Yaodong cursed, but still picked up the fountain pen.

Since things have come to this, let's bite the bullet.

"Hehe, write quickly, ten pages of big characters!"

Ye Chenghu said and stretched his finger to swipe his father's book page, but was hit hard.

"Shut up."

The back of his hand was red, but Ye Chenghu was still very happy, rarely writing homework actively.

Usually sitting, his butt had to twist back and forth, the whole butt was outside the stool, people lying down to write, this time he sat straight.

Lin Xiuqing felt that this was also good, the father and son had companions, promoting Ye Chenghu's enthusiasm for learning.

"Send Yangyang to school in the second half of the year, and the three of you will write together."

"Great!" Ye Chenghu was even happier.

After Ye Fu finished the moving work, he came over and saw the father and son writing, and asked curiously: "You came back early just to write? You didn't learn when you were young, and you are desperate to learn when you are old."

"Too pitiful, have to write ten pages." ===== CHAPTER 1229 =====
