Chapter 142

The next morning, the couple left the children to Ye Mu and went to the town.

Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua's two couples went to the town together yesterday afternoon and bought all the things that should be bought.

Lin Xiuqing also took the opportunity to ask about the things they bought and the prices, as well as where some things were bought, and kept them in mind. As soon as she arrived in the town, she went straight to the destination.

Ye Yaodong came out today to be a laborer. In a short while, the two baskets they brought out were already full and hung on his hands.

Lin Xiuqing wanted to help, but he didn't dare to let her carry heavy objects, so he hung them all on himself. At this time, the shop also had the large iron pot for the earthen stove they just bought, which he carried on his back...

He looked behind him while walking, "Why do I feel that this pot on my back is strange?"

The pedestrians on the road couldn't help but turn their heads to look at him twice when they passed by him.

Lin Xiuqing turned her head to look and couldn't help but laugh, but she held back and didn't laugh out loud, lest he get angry and not carry it, "No, I think it's quite good."

"Then why are you still laughing at me?"

"Is there?"

"Is there not? Your eyes are so curved that you can't see your pupils."

He pulled the big pot on his back while speaking, always feeling that it was awkward no matter how he carried it? I don't know how his eldest brother and second brother brought it back yesterday?

Since it was discovered, Lin Xiuqing didn't hold back anymore, and she laughed with her mouth wide open, "I think you look better now that you're tanned."

"Nonsense," Ye Yaodong looked at the eyes of the pedestrians on both sides and said in a low voice embarrassedly, "You are clearly laughing at me for carrying a big pot, looking like a turtle!"

Now Lin Xiuqing couldn't help but laugh out loud, but in order to save him some face, she immediately covered it with her hand, and then said in a low voice, "This is what you said yourself, I didn't say that."

Ye Yaodong was annoyed and looked at her accusingly, "You must have thought so too!"

"Oh~ it's okay, buy two more things, and we'll go home." Lin Xiuqing took his hand soothingly and walked forward together.

He turned his head and looked behind him again in depression. How could it be so awkward?

"What else do you want to buy? Come back in the afternoon? Take the pot back first, it's not right to carry it like this all the time, right?"

"It's fine to buy it all at once, why do you have to come again? Don't you need money for the car? I told you it's fine to walk, you have to take the car. How far can it be, it's not like I haven't walked it."

There were people all around, so he couldn't say anything to her. There was still one in her belly, and she had to walk such a long way. Was she afraid that the child was too stable?

Originally, whether this child could be born was still hanging. Of course, we must pay attention. A few cents for the car is really not necessary to save. It's still too frugal.

Ye Yaodong bit the bullet and carried the pot, always following her side, looking straight ahead...

Until she entered the small shop for daily necessities and bought soap, board brushes, and mallets, he finally couldn't help but speak, "Don't the small shops in the village sell them? Why do you have to buy them from so far away?"

"What do you know? Buying two pieces of soap here can be one cent cheaper."

Ye Yaodong:...

"Okay, let's go back."

"Buy a box of clam oil! It's autumn and winter, it's relatively dry, you and the children have to apply it on your face and hands."

She hesitated, "It's a bit early to apply it now... um... it's rare to come once, so let's buy it by the way?"

"Buy it, buy it."

After all the things were bought, he breathed a sigh of relief and could finally get in the car and go home.

After a circle, I felt that my face was thicker.

After returning to the village, he didn't care. He walked back swaggeringly. When he met acquaintances, he could still greet them twice.

"Yo~ turned into a turtle prime minister today?"

Seeing him from afar, Fatty ran over quickly, but found that there was a pot behind him, and immediately mocked him.

Ye Yaodong scraped him fiercely with eyes like knives.

"Your style today is not bad!"

"Where did you come from?"

"I just came out of your house with my father, and wrote a menu for you."

"Oh, just help me take it to the new house."

Fatty noticed that all the things were hung on him, and his wife was standing aside empty-handed.

"I didn't see that you love your wife so much?"

"It's a must. The wife is taken home to be loved. Hurry up, help me carry the basket in my hand over."

Fatty gave a light snort, didn't damage him, and honestly carried the basket hanging on his hand over.

Lin Xiuqing was a bit embarrassed, he said it so bluntly.

People in this era are very implicit.

After preparing all the things that should be bought, Ye Yaodong doesn't need to worry about the rest, and Ye Fu and Ye Mu will take care of it.

Just for the banquet, the high-quality seafood from the day before was picked out and left at the pier for preservation. Most of the goods in Ye Yaodong's ground cages were also left, which can reduce expenses.

Because Bryde's whales drove the school of fish two days ago, the fish catch in the ground cages increased greatly this time, and there were several top-quality large white pomfrets, each weighing over one jin, which was very decent on the banquet table.

There were also several red-paste crabs, each one large and fat. Local banquets will have a bowl of red-paste crab sticky rice.

Other swimming crabs, mantis shrimp, and large sword shrimp are all available. They are by the sea, and 80% of the local banquets are seafood.

For their local people, moving is a big event, quite particular, not only banquet dishes, but also some customs.

A pair of lanterns, two bamboo poles, and two brooms are essential items for moving in their local area.

The bamboo pole is a symbol of whether the owner lives in this house.

The local villagers use bamboo poles to dry clothes. When the bamboo poles and clothes are still there, it means the owner still lives here; once the bamboo pole is taken back, it means the family has left.

And when the bamboo pole is raised in a new place and clothes are hung, it means the new owner has arrived, so this must be used.

As for the lanterns, in the early days, every household would hang a pair of large red lanterns at the door, with the owner's surname written on them.

Once the lantern is taken down, it means the family is about to move away, and when people see new lanterns hung up, they understand that a new owner has come to the house.

There are also brooms. When moving, you have to bring 2 brooms. One is the broom used in the old house, and the other is the broom used in the new house. Its meaning is to clean the old house where you lived before, so that later people can move in; at the same time, clean your new house, and live a clean life.

Some people will take a broom to the door of the post and telecommunications bureau on the day of moving, which means sweeping all the money home.

On the day of moving, the bamboo poles and brooms should be wrapped with spring couplet red paper first, and then tied with red ropes.

Then a red bucket is filled with half a bucket of water, and the other red bucket is filled with rice. On the way from the old house to the new house, pay attention that the water cannot be spilled, and later put the rice into the new house rice bucket.

After arriving at the new house, burn straw at the door, and people and things must pass over the straw, which is somewhat similar to crossing a fire basin.

Then carry the bucket with rice into the door first, followed by the bucket with water. This bucket of water will be used to boil water or cook meals later, and it will be taken by the family to mean changing water and soil.

The process of the previous life, walking again in this life, Ye Yaodong is very familiar with it, and there is no need for Ye Mu to remind him.

After all the moving processes were completed, after the red lanterns were hung high, the firecrackers crackled, which meant they had also finished moving.

When the time for settling the bed comes, they just need to move the bed over and place it well.

The three brothers moved on the same day, but the time was not together.

The banquet was also set together, and the expenses would be shared equally, so as not to be troublesome.

On this day, even Ye Dabo and Ye Erbo, who hadn't appeared for a long time, came out. They welcomed each other with joy. They were all one family, and there was no overnight hatred.

After all the guests arrived and were seated, the sound of firecrackers outside the house also crackled, which meant that the dishes could be served.

After the banquet started, the three Ye Yaodong brothers and Ye Fu were not free to sit down and eat and drink. They kept shuttling between the guests to toast. After sitting down, they were already blushing and hiccuping.

Lin Xiuqing hurriedly poured him a few cups of tea to relieve it, and hurriedly put something in his bowl for him to eat.

"Why did you drink so much all of a sudden? You didn't eat anything to cushion your stomach just now."

Ye Yaodong smiled at her tipsily, his left hand quietly grabbed her hand under the table, and his right hand ate the food.

In the past few months, Lin Xiuqing has gradually become accustomed to his occasional unintentional intimate actions, and a trace of sweetness has risen in her heart, which she enjoys very much. Anyway, she is almost full, and the two children are sitting at the banquet with Ye Mu, so she doesn't need to worry.

After the banquet ended and all the guests were sent away, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The three sisters-in-law also immediately helped their respective men back to the room to lie down, and then helped clean up the mess.

Ye Yaodong slept comfortably. After lying down, he slept until the next day. He touched the warm fragrance and soft jade beside him, feeling that the touch was a bit wrong. He barely opened one eye and closed the other, only to find that it was the younger son's thigh.

He looked at the room in a daze, only to find that it was the new house. The two sons were lying there crookedly, and his wife was no longer in the room.

Rubbing his temples, he carefully stepped over the eldest son to get out of bed, put on his clothes and pants and went out.

Only to see his wife wearing an apron and busy by the stove.

"What are you cooking? Why don't you wear your new clothes?"

She said with a smile, "I'm not going out, I'm just cooking at home, why wear new clothes? Don't get a hole in it from the sparks, then I have nowhere to cry."

"Fine, what are you cooking in the morning?"

"Pumpkin porridge, the few large pumpkins brought from my mother's house last time haven't been eaten yet. Mother moved two over the day before yesterday. Pumpkin also has a good meaning. I thought about using it directly to cook pumpkin porridge, and by the way, use the water and rice from moving yesterday to cook, change the water and soil."

"Good, anything is fine. The tide is relatively early today, I have to go out to collect the net early later."

"I know, so I got up early to cook today, and the porridge will be rotten after a while. Do you want to go back and lie down for a while?"

He rubbed his temples, his head was still uncomfortable, "No, I'll go brush my teeth and wash my face to wake up."

Lin Xiuqing looked at his back, her face full of smiles.
