Chapter 1791

~8 min read 1,466 words

The next day, Ye Yaodong let Lin Xiuqing go to work as usual, while he himself went to the freight station to ask about the arrival of the goods.

It just so happened that he asked and found out they arrived last night. Calculating the time, they should have arrived yesterday. They were all materials for construction and layout. Since he was there, he arranged for them to be sent back, and they could still be used in the second half of the year.

After getting this matter settled, he went to busy himself with the site.

From then on, he was like a spinning top, with things to do every day, his time tight every day, running back and forth between several places.

Ye Chenghu still wanted to chase him out, but now there was no need to chase; he didn't have time to stay at home, and he just grabbed a casual meal outside, returning home only after the sun went down every day.

Lin Xiuqing knew that Ye Chenghu was going to invite classmates to play at home on Saturday, so she cleaned the house inside and out in advance and locked her own room.

At the same time, she also had to go out to work on Saturday, so this house was truly his world.

Ye Chenghu was extremely excited when he got up early. With his parents not at home, he could invite classmates to play at home. This house could be considered to have a day where he was the master.

Getting up early, he put on the clothes he considered the most handsome and looked at himself in the bathroom mirror again and again.

Ye Chengyang was jumping with anxiety outside, "Big brother, what are you doing in there? A shadow standing there doesn't look like you're pooping. I need to pee, I can't hold it anymore."

"Can't you go to the bathroom downstairs?"

"I want to brush my teeth right after I pee. Come out quickly when you're done."

"Brush your teeth right after you pee? Aren't you afraid your teeth will get even yellower?"

Ye Chengyang cursed and ran downstairs to pee first. It was really early in the morning, and he didn't want to climb up and down; he'd have to come back up after peeing.

"Are you done yet?"

Ye Chenghu dawdled and opened the bathroom door, "Done peeing? I was just about to say I'd get a cup for you to go fetch."

"You damn..."

"I'm going to tell Mom you're swearing."

"Mom hasn't been home for a long time; she went out to work. Get out of the way."

Ye Chengyang squeezed him out of the bathroom.

"I'm going to buy groceries in a while, do you want to go?"

"What for?"

"To cook, of course. My classmates are coming to play. We can't just eat a cake and snacks all day, right? Let's go out and buy some groceries in a while. Anyway, there are quite a lot of people. Everyone can help together. Self-reliance is the way to go. It'll be like playing house; we'll cook a table full of food ourselves!"

Ye Chengyang's eyes lit up, "This is good. I've never cooked by myself before. I want to help out as a sous-chef too."

"No problem. Come with me to buy groceries in a while. There are ten of us, plus you two tag-alongs, that's enough for a table. However, I don't know if little aunt will let the three little ones come over. Anyway, it doesn't matter. If they come, we'll just let them sit at the coffee table to eat."

"Mm-hmm."

Ye Huimei had too many odds and ends at home, so she didn't move over immediately. For the time being, she would go back at meal times to cook, then eat together over there, and return home to sleep at night.

"Brush quickly, we have to go buy groceries early. If we're late, there won't be any good-looking ones left."

Ye Chengyang nodded repeatedly with a mouth full of foam.

Ye Chenghu already had money in his pocket and was full of anticipation. It was rare to be a host, and he had already made up his mind to treat his classmates well.

The two brothers left Ye Xiaoxi behind and went out together, getting along like good brothers.

Ye Xiaoxi was still sleeping sweetly and didn't know that the house was already empty, with only her left.

She now sleeps in her own room, and with the door closed, she didn't hear any movement and was sleeping soundly.

When she woke up, she felt that the house was exceptionally quiet, without a sound, and she stood at the top of the stairs in a daze.

"Mom? Mom!! Dad? Big brother? Second brother? Where is everyone?"

She panicked for a moment. How come even her brothers weren't home?

She couldn't bother to brush her teeth or wash her face. She ran downstairs quickly, calling out as she walked, but there was no sound in the house. There were two barks from the doorway, which made her feel a little relieved, and she hurried toward the doorway.

As soon as the door opened, the two dogs immediately pounced on her. Just as they met, she was pounced to the ground by the dogs.

"Ah! You silly dogs... get away!"

One dog didn't pounce on her and could only circle around her.

She pushed the dogs away and sat up, "Where are my big brother and second brother?"

The two dogs barked twice.

"Did they go out? Where did they go? Did they go to get the cake?"

"Woof woof~"

Ye Xiaoxi patted the two dogs' heads with one hand each, "What did you two silly dogs say?"

She sat on the threshold with a bird's nest of hair, hugging the dogs' heads with one hand each, looking at the courtyard gate, muttering to herself.

"They didn't even call me to go with them. That's too much. When they come back, you guys help me bite them to death..."

"When will they be back? I'm hungry. They actually ran out secretly without taking me, without waiting for me, leaving me alone at home. That's too much."

"Bless big brother and second brother to come back early..."

She stared at the doorway with longing, her stomach growling constantly. She could only rub the dogs' heads fiercely, occasionally grabbing their fur hard, and then quickly smoothing it out.

The two dogs also let her destroy them, squatting beside her without moving, loyal and devoted.

The two brothers appeared at the doorway with their hands full...

"Big brother!"

The sky-shattering shout startled them, followed by bursts of fierce wolfhound barking.

The two were startled as soon as they stepped in with one foot, and the groceries in their hands almost flew out.

The two dogs were seen rushing to them, sniffing around the groceries in their hands.

"Oh my god, why are you screaming so loudly? You scared me."

Ye Chenghu kicked the two dogs aside, don't let them ruin his groceries.

"Amitabha, you guys are finally back!"

"Amitabha your Buddha."

"Why didn't you take me when you went out!"

"Take you for what? How many groceries can you carry?"

Ye Chengyang also said, "You were sleeping like a pig, so we went to buy groceries first."

Ye Chenghu hurried to appease her before she could speak, "I bought a lot of groceries. We'll cook together at noon in a while. Without Mom and little aunt and the others, we'll manage it ourselves."

Ye Xiaoxi, who originally had a resentful expression, instantly had her features light up.

"Ah! Are we going to cook and play house ourselves? Yes, yes, yes, yes, I want to help!"

"Then hurry inside, don't block the doorway."

Ye Xiaoxi hurried to the side.

"Tie up your bird's nest hair. You didn't just wake up and haven't washed your face or brushed your teeth, did you?"

She said righteously, "I was scared!"

"You were scared? You can still be scared? You're not afraid when you run all over the mountains alone, and you're scared at home? My classmates will be here in a while. Let them see you, this wild chicken with exploded hair."

"Ah, are they coming already?"

"Probably coming soon. I told them to come early to help cook."

Ye Xiaoxi grabbed her bird's nest hair, and it became even messier. Her bangs stood up, and the rest of her hair all had its own ideas, posing.

Ps: Rushed around all day, so sleepy and tired. Wrote this after waking up from a nap. Let's leave it like this for now. A bit stuck on the writing, will make up for it tomorrow during the day.
