Chapter 1495: Mrs. Group Inspection

"Pockets can be cleaner than the face!"

Ye Yaodong added another sentence and hummed.

The two brothers were somewhat deafening!

This marriage seems even more miserable...

"Third Uncle, are you telling the truth?" Ye Chenghe was shocked.

"Does your dad listen to your mom?"

He nodded.

"Who manages the money in your house?"

"My mom..."

"If your dad has no money at home, does he ask your mom for it?"

Both nodded together.

"So when you get married, it's about the same. You are long-term workers working for your wife and children!"

"Ah..."

Ye Chenghe had a bitter face.

Ye Chengjiang frowned, then relaxed, "Good thing I don't want to get married."

"That's not right, then why do you want to get married?"

"Because we have to carry on the family line. If we don't carry on the family line, where will the sons and grandsons come from?"

"Third Uncle, isn't that she sleeps with me, and I give her money?"

Ye Yaodong slapped him, "This is called prostitution!"

Ye Chenghe touched his head and was angry. Third Uncle just relied on being taller than him!

He shouted loudly: "Isn't that the same?"

"You damn go out to prostitute, just give those few yuan, and she still gives birth to children for you? Still washes clothes and cooks for you, does housework? Beautiful you!"

"Then the lazy people in the village didn't earn money, and didn't give money to their wives, didn't they also give birth to children, do housework, wash clothes and cook, and serve like a master?"

"That's because people have good lives. This also shows that a wife is married to live a life, not the same as a prostitute who sleeps when given money."

"Then anyway, after getting married, there is no money, all have to be given to the wife!"

Ye Chengjiang suddenly said: "No, Third Uncle, why didn't you hand it over, why do you have money?"

Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes, "Isn't this earning money outside? It's strange if your Third Aunt can get the money in my hands, unless I go back, but that also has to be my willingness to take it all out and give it to her. If I am not willing to give her the money, how can she get my money?"

Ye Chenghe's eyes lit up, "I understand, so my dad hides private money every day, and even deposits it in the bank!"

He understood!

Handing it over is handing it over, but you can hide it privately.

"You damn child, if your dad hears it, it will be another belt when you go back."

Ye Chenghe looked around, didn't see his dad's shadow, and then felt relieved.

"Third Uncle, looking at this marriage, it doesn't seem that good?"

"After getting married, someone will sleep with you every day, so you don't have to have a nosebleed, and someone will wash clothes and cook for you..."

"My mom also washes clothes and cooks for me."

"Then do you dare to ask Mom to wash your feet?"

"Then she can splash it on my face."

"After getting married, someone will take care of the rear for you..."

Ye Yaodong pondered how to tell him, but after talking halfway, he couldn't talk anymore.

"Forget it, damn it, you'll know when you get married. You are not born by me, why should I worry about you?"

"Anyway, after getting married, you have to take the responsibility of supporting your family. It is right to earn money and give it to your wife for expenses."

"If you can't manage the money well, then let your wife manage it for you, but it must be a reliable wife. An unreliable wife, you give it to her in the front, and she will subsidize her mother's family in the back, or directly lose the family."

Ye Chengjiang said in a low voice: "Then if I don't get married, I won't have any worries, right? Earn money and spend it myself, and my dad and mom's will be mine in the future!"

"Fine, you can go to your dad now and tell him to earn more money, otherwise you won't be satisfied if the money left to you is less in the future."

"Third Uncle, you treat me as a fool."

"You two are big fools! In our whole big family, except for me, there is no smart one." Ye Yaodong said angrily.

Ye Chengjiang changed the subject, "Third Uncle, when you go to drive the motorcycle, will you be back in two or three days?"

"Why?"

"Go with you, isn't your Western-style house all organized? We also go to sleep on the floor, it was broken last time, we haven't seen the repaired one."

Ye Chenghe also nodded, "It's agreed to let us live in a Western-style house."

"Whatever, love to follow."

When the time comes, some furniture can also be moved in, just go over and help move and lift.

"If the time is too long, we won't follow."

"Too delayed to earn money..."

Going twice in the first two months delayed them for a month, and they didn't earn money for almost a month, and each of them pasted 3,000 yuan, and even earned a beating, they were all scared.

They have to pay for the behavior of the first two months for the whole year, and the benefits all fell into their dad's hands, and they didn't get any good.

It was just that their dad went to sea and couldn't control them, otherwise, besides driving the tractor to earn money every day, they wouldn't want to follow Third Uncle and run around.

Now they have also learned to be good, asking how many days to go in advance, if the time is too long, they dare not go.

"I can't say for sure, anyway, it takes two days to go back and forth, and it may take two days in the middle, you look at it, if you are in a hurry, you can sit on the boat and come back at any time."

"That's fine."

Ye Yaodong has been running back and forth too frequently in these months, and now he has to collect it, and run less outside.

Anyway, the house processing is coming to an end. After the motorcycle is driven back in a few days, there is no need to go over so frequently. When the time comes, the furniture and home appliances will be covered with dust covers.

Ah Guang asked: "Then when do you plan to take your daughter up? I don't dare to call home now, I am chased and asked as soon as I call home."

He was full of complaints, all blaming Dongzi for saying he wanted to take his daughter up.

Okay, his daughter is also thinking about going up, and she asks as soon as she calls, and even Huimei complains to him, saying that she asks 800 times a day, and her ears are calloused.

"Wait a bit? Or when will my dad go back, and take my mom and Huimei up together? Your three children, plus a Xiao Jiu?"

Ah Qing is forget it, too busy, unless it is the New Year, she can't get away now, the weather has turned cold recently, it is just the time to dry fish.

"So many people? Isn't it just planning to take two children up?"

"I think since I want to take them up, then simply take the adults up, and they can watch the children? It just so happens that they haven't been here, Huimei has nothing to do anyway, just bring the children at home. By the way, let my mom take a leave for a period of time, otherwise there are so many children, Huimei can't watch them."

Ah Guang hesitated, "I'll think about it."

"You haven't been back for several months, it's just right to take them up and see the children, stay here for a few days, and then take them to the Magic City to play for a few days, stay in a Western-style house for a few days, play enough, and then you help send them back? Anyway, you can go to sea or not, there are workers."

"Eh? Then can I also let my wife come up?" Xiao Xiao asked immediately.

Ah Zheng also said: "Then my wife can also come up."

"Yes, your own wife, if you want her to come up, then let her come up."

"That's okay, let them accompany each other, the children won't be brought, the children go to school, just entrust them to the elderly at home."

"I have a few empty rooms here, so I don't need to go out to live."

Usually everyone goes to sea, and there are only 10 or so people left here during the day, including those who work in the canteen.

A group of women bringing children up is okay, just stay for a few days and go to the Magic City, not just that one or two, but it can also be a companion.

"That's okay, we have been here for two years, now that you have built so many houses here, it's okay to bring your family to see."

"Indeed, it's mainly because taking a boat is convenient now. If you ask about the cargo ships in advance, you don't even need to go to the provincial capital or the city to catch a boat; you can just board directly at the town pier."

"It's just right to bring the wives from home to see the world; it'll also give them something to brag about when they go back."

"When we take them to the Magic City, that will truly be an eye-opener."

"Staying there for ten days or half a month won't be considered long."

Everyone chimed in, making it quite lively; they were all restless and eager to bring their wives over to take a look.

Each of them had earned some money now, so they didn't have to stay at sea working every day. They could spare the time, and they were thinking of letting their wives see the world too.

Ye Yaodong also felt it wasn't a bad thing; letting the "wives' club" come up to inspect things would also put them more at ease.

When they went back, they would have more face in the village.

"Then you all should call home whenever you can to discuss it with your wives. If the children are in school, just entrust them to the elders at home to look after."

"Alright, I'll call home to ask in a bit," Xiao Xiao replied, and the others nodded along.

"Oh my," A-Zheng slapped his thigh, "It just so happens that the motorcycles will arrive in a few days. We can ride them to take our wives for a spin!"

"That's right!"

"I see you all are quite free now, so it's better to go back and pick them up yourselves; that way you'll be at ease."

"That works too."

Ever since they brought a worker from home a few months ago to replace them on the boat, they had been quite comfortable. They could go out to sea if they wanted to, and if they wanted to come back, they could catch a fresh-catch boat at any time.

Fathers and sons could even take turns coming back to rest, which looked very relaxed, unlike before when both father and son had to stay at sea.

It's different once the money is in hand; they are all very willing to spend money to hire people.

The few of them acted as soon as they decided; after dispersing, they each called home.

Then they immediately went to find Lin Ji to ask about the ship's schedule. It was such a grand and enthusiastic display that even Lin Ji wanted to bring his wife up.

In the past, when they were doing dangerous work, they didn't dare tell their wives anything, and even if they had money, they didn't dare let their wives at home spend it. They spent more on women outside than on their own wives.

Now that they had moved from the shadows into the light, they could speak about it decently, and they could let their wives buy whatever they wanted.

Therefore, he also immediately went to make arrangements.

When Ye Yaodong called home in the evening, Ye Xiaoxi was excited to the point of madness, while Ye Chenghu cried.

Before he could even say a few words to Lin Xiuqing on the phone, he heard Ye Chenghu's wailing from the other end.

"I must have been picked up from the trash! The two of them have everything, but I don't! I want to go too, I want to go too..."

Lin Xiuqing told him to shut up, but he wailed even louder.

"You really are something, making such a big fuss. Couldn't you have just brought them up secretly? Now it's a mess. Ever since he heard your daughter mention it a few months ago, he started throwing tantrums. Then he heard Xiao Yu running over to talk about it this afternoon, and at dinner time, he started crying and then sat by the phone waiting."

"He has to go to school, so he can't come. Can't Yangyang come either?"

"But you promised to buy Yangyang a Transformer, and the next day he showed it off in front of Chenghu. He already cried once back then, saying I didn't wake him up at night to answer the phone."

Ye Chengyang also shouted into the phone at this time, "Dad, don't forget the Transformer you promised me. Ask Uncle to bring it back for me. This is my reward for getting 100 on my test!"

"Got it, you're so long-winded."

"You call me long-winded? The three of them ask 800 times a day. One asks when you're coming back to take her up to play, one asks when you're buying the Transformer, and another asks when you're calling back. They ask in turns every day; my head is about to explode."

Lin Xiuqing was full of complaints, glaring at the three in front of her, wishing she could whip them.

"They are all debt collectors; I must have owed them in my past life."

"Isn't it all your fault? You gave them all different promises and told them so early. Isn't that just asking for them to dwell on it?"

Ye Chenghu continued his dry wailing, "Dad, I want to go with you, I want to go with you..."

Ye Yaodong heard it and relayed through the phone, "Wait until winter break, then I'll take him. For now, tell him to study hard for me. If he doesn't test well, I'll break his legs. Forget about coming to Zhoushan or the Magic City; I won't even let him out the door."

"Didn't you say you were only taking your daughter last time? Why did Huimei say this afternoon that she also wants to take her three children up, and she wants to take Mom up, and your friends' wives too? Why so many all of a sudden?"

"It just came up in conversation, and they were all excited and said they'd bring their wives up to see the world, so they can brag when they go back and also be at ease."

"With so many people going up, won't it be too much trouble?"

"What trouble? Each person leads their own wife; let them go back and pick them up themselves. Anyway, they are all free, unlike me, a busy man. I just finished organizing the villa these past few days, and in a while, I'll just add some furniture."

"With so many people going up, making it so lively, I even want to go up."

Ye Chenghu wailed again, "I want to go too, I want to go too..."

Ye Xiaoxi also shouted along, "I want to go too, Dad promised me."

Lin Xiuqing furrowed her brows and glared fiercely at the two of them.

Ye Chengyang was quite honest; he only wanted the Transformer. As long as he could get the Transformer brought back to him, he was satisfied, and it didn't matter if he didn't go.

"There are so many things at home, can you get away?"

"Yeah, I really can't get away."

"Wait a few months until winter break. You make arrangements in advance, hand over the work to Mom, and I'll go back to pick you and the three kids up to come up here, and you can go back with me when the break is over."

Lin Xiuqing immediately beamed, "Alright, then I'll go a bit later."

After saying that, she also immediately pacified Ye Chenghu, "Your dad said, wait until your winter break, and if you get good grades, he'll take you all then. If you don't get good grades, you stay home, and I'll take your brother and sister."

"But that's winter break, that's so long..."

"Then don't go."

"I want to go."

"If you want to go, then be good and honest for me. If you cry again, wait until I have a free hand to take the whip and beat you to death."

If she weren't holding the phone right now and didn't have time to hit the child, she wouldn't have chosen to pacify him first to make him quiet.

Ye Chenghu quickly wiped away his tears.

Ye Chengyang was also happy; this way he would have his Transformer, and he could go when the break started!

Ye Xiaoxi ran outside happily, "Dad said he'd take me..."

She didn't even listen to the main point; she was just happy, but she wasn't happy for the wrong reason.

Ye Yaodong heard the commotion on the other side clearly through the phone.

"Alright, let's leave it at that. When the time comes, have A-Guang and the others go back to pick them up. My daughter can just follow them up; she'll have Mom to look after her on the road. You tell Mom later too."

"Mm, she knew this afternoon. Half the village knows too, that you're taking her to Zhoushan and the Magic City to see the big world."

Ye Yaodong chuckled, imagining his mother's overjoyed appearance.

"I'll tell you when the return time is set. Prepare thicker clothes for the children; it's colder here than at home."

"Okay."

After finishing the call, he hung up, as there were others waiting in line to use the phone.

Unsurprisingly, the cargo ship's schedule would be around the middle of the month. Before they left, the motorcycles could also be brought back.

Or they could choose to go get them a bit later, pick up the people first, and then take them all to the Magic City to pick up the vehicles.

Ye Yaodong thought of this and went to discuss it with the others.

This would save them from pushing the motorcycles onto the boat back and forth. The wives' club would definitely be taken to the Magic City, and it would be more convenient to have the motorcycles in the Magic City.

The place there is so big, and waiting for the bus is slow and crowded. Riding a motorcycle is also stylish and fast.

Anyway, if they went to get them in a few days, they would just be sitting there, and they would have to go back to pick up people immediately, so it's better to pick up the people first and then go get the vehicles.

He mentioned it to the others, and although they were eager to bring the vehicles back, they felt this arrangement was more convenient and saved them an extra trip to the Magic City.

And their arrangements spread throughout the camp by the evening when some of the small boats returned.

Everyone was a bit surprised, but they didn't have any big thoughts about it.

These people had earned enough and were free, so they could think about bringing their wives up to wander around. They themselves were too busy earning money to have time to bring their wives and children up to wander.

At most, they discussed it for a few sentences in the evening, and by the next day, no one mentioned it anymore, occasionally asking when they were coming up.

But the village was different; it exploded, and the calm lake boiled.

Those women all said that the few in the wives' club were lucky, as their husbands had earned money and were taking them to see the world.

Ye's mother was even more glorious, her face glowing. The three daughters-in-law didn't go, but she did, so she couldn't have been happier.

Whenever she mentioned it to people, she would feign modesty, saying that her son had bought a big villa up there and wanted to pick her up to take a look and stay for a few days.

This made her so glorious that she was already glorious before she even left the house.

The once-quiet village suddenly became lively.

When the men returned one by one, it was even more lively, as if heroes were returning.

Women in other villages were envious and jealous, and behind their backs, they complained that their own men didn't take them.

Ye Yaodong was not among the men who returned. Ye Xiaoxi looked for her father for a long time but couldn't find him, so she suspiciously pulled A-Guang to ask.

"Uncle, where is my dad?"

"Your dad isn't coming back; he said he's not taking you."

"Ah, waaaah, no, no, he promised me, bad dad, stinky dad... wuu wuu wuu, liar, big liar... I want to go, I want to go..."

She was stunned for a moment and then immediately burst into tears, crying so sadly that big tears fell down.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't cry, I was joking."

Ye Xiaoxi hit him while crying, "Dad didn't come back, he's a liar, he's a liar, big liar, I hate him, wuu wuu wuu, I don't want him anymore..."

"He didn't come back, but he asked me to come back to pick you up, so stop crying."

"You're lying, he didn't even come back."

"He's busy, so he just asked me to pick you and your grandma up. Xiao Yu and the twins will go with you too, okay? Stop crying."

Ye Xiaoxi pouted and paused. Big tears were still swirling in her eyes. She wiped her red eyes with the back of her hand before saying aggrievedly.

"Really? Did Dad ask you to come pick me up?"

"Of course, I'll let Xiao Yu go with you when the time comes."

She nodded, but her pouting mouth hadn't retracted yet.

Pei Yu happily pulled her, "Sister, let's go together, stop crying, I'll ask my dad not to take my brother, but to take you."

"Mm-hmm."

The twins were so anxious that they couldn't speak fluently. They just hugged A-Guang's legs and shook their heads, calling out, "No, no, sister is bad!"

"Bad sister!"

A-Guang picked them up, one in each arm, and coaxed them with a smile, "I'll take you all, I'll take you all."

Ye Xiaoxi and Pei Yu walked in front, holding hands, whispering to each other.

"You must take me."

"Sister, I will definitely ask my dad to take you."

"Sister, I like you the most, I'll give you candy to eat."

The two of them shared happily and skipped back.

After returning home, Ye Xiaoxi didn't forget to complain to Lin Xiuqing.

"Mom, Dad is a big liar, Dad didn't come back, Dad didn't keep his word..."

"Your dad didn't say he was coming back himself."

"He said he'd take me, you call him, you call him quickly!"

"Uncle will take you, that's fine."

"Then you call him and let him tell Uncle..."

Lin Xiuqing was cooking and ignored her, so she kept pestering her, repeating it over and over, and kept talking.

It wasn't until she took out the whip that she quieted down, but she turned around and went to find the old lady.

She shook the old lady's hand, "Grandma, do you miss Dad? Shall we call Dad?"

"Grandma, Uncle is back, but Dad isn't, let's call Dad..."

"Grandma, teach me how to call Dad..."

"Grandma..."

"Alright, alright, we'll call your dad, let's call now, stop shaking, you're shaking my old bones until they're about to fall apart."

The old lady chuckled, holding her hand with one hand and leaning on her cane with the other, heading into the room.

Lin Xiuqing glanced at the old and young pair.

Ye Xiaoxi saw it and immediately hid on the other side of the old lady.

The old lady laughed and switched the cane to the other hand, patting her with the other hand to comfort her.

"We'll call your dad right now, you tell him to take you up to play."

"Mm-hmm, Grandma is the best, I like Grandma the most."

The old lady was happy.

She had long since memorized the phone number by heart and had long since let them teach her how to make a call.

She wasn't unfamiliar with dialing the phone at this moment...

Ye Xiaoxi stood on the chair, supporting herself on the table with both hands, staring at the phone.

Lin Xiuqing said, "Your dad might be busy, don't think about calling him every day, it will affect him."

The old lady hesitated, "Then we won't call..."

"I want to, just for a moment..."
