Chapter 1802: Gossip

This kind of gossip was nothing to talk about, especially in front of children. Ye Fu said one sentence and stopped.

When facing Ye Yaodong earlier, he didn't think to mention it either. After all, it was the gossip of the elders. As a big man, if he really wanted to talk about it, he would gossip with Ye Mu.

Women were different.

At home, Ye Mu had already been complaining to her granddaughter, daughter-in-law, plus neighbors, and the three aunts and six grandmothers.

And she also complained to Lin Xiuqing, and by the way, asked her to tell Ye Huimei not to go to Zhoushan, so as not to see it and feel disgusted.

Ye Yaodong only found out after going around in a big circle and receiving Lin Xiuqing's call.

This gossip was also quite roundabout, going from home to Shanghai, and then around to him.

"... Mother kept complaining, the father-in-law is not like a father-in-law, the mother-in-law is not like a mother-in-law, the son is like a grandson, it's a mess."

Ye Yaodong was confused after hearing it, "My mother... this summary is quite accurate."

"Heh, isn't it? She kept complaining for an hour straight, without repeating herself."

"Wasn't she at home all the time in the first half of the year? Everything was fine, how come she brought them up after going back once."

"Seems like I heard that the twins are going to be in the first grade in the second half of the semester, and their little uncle is only one year younger than them, saying he also wants to come up to attend preschool in advance, otherwise he only knows how to play wildly at home, and doesn't know anything."

"That's true, the twins are also going to be in the first grade in the second half of the semester, it's really fast."

"Right, have to compare, saying they can go to school in Shanghai, can't leave the little uncle in the countryside? Don't know where they heard it, that people outside have preschool before the first grade, so they want to send him over."

"Must have heard it from some women who came up."

"So, I heard mother say they quarreled for several days, quarreled and quarreled, and brought up old Pei finding women outside, not wanting his wife and children, old and shameless, etc. Later old Pei had no choice, afraid of making it too ugly, so he brought them up."

"That's really ugly, being a joke to people in the village, he also wants face."

"Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. Aunt Ma and the children have been in the village for so long, if they don't consider themselves, they have to consider the children. Old Pei is so glorious outside, of course he wants face when returning to the village."

Ye Yaodong summarized after hearing it, "Old Pei is really not a thing."

But he was the object of envy for the men in the village, his mistake was that he shouldn't have gotten married!

As long as he didn't get married, no matter how many women he found, the men would only envy him. Even if he really gave birth to children, it would be fine, they would only praise him for being old and strong, and the women would only say he was romantic.

But after getting married, the nature was different.

Lin Xiuqing continued to complain, "Fortunately Huimei came to Shanghai, otherwise she would be depressed to death looking at it, having an extra mother-in-law who isn't a mother-in-law, a little uncle who is like a son, now it's just out of sight, out of mind."

"Hmm, out of sight, out of mind, let them toss, it has nothing to do with her, she has already separated."

"And now that they are up, how is it?"

"How is what?"

Ye Yaodong was confused by her question for a moment.

"How is old Pei arranging it? Tell me."

"How would I know, I didn't even know about this matter, I only found out after you called and told me after father came back."

"Didn't father tell you after he came back? Is old Pei not renting a family quarter from you?"

"I'm such a big boss, do I still manage the renting of family quarters? This doesn't need me to manage, the family quarters side was arranged for logistics, specifically putting two people to be property and gatekeepers, renting has its own process, except for reporting things, I don't need to manage it at all. If I have to manage everything, I don't have to go out."

"Oh, then ask when you're free."

"Why don't you just come over and stay for a few days? You're so gossipy, you're in Shanghai, and you still want to eat the melon here."

Lin Xiuqing laughed straight away after hearing it, "Then I'll go in two days, and bring Huimei along, hahahaha."

"Too many things, you're afraid gossip isn't enough."

"Where, just go take a look, otherwise old Pei will be so happy he'll forget he has two biological grandsons. Take the twins to pick their grandfather's pocket, wait two days and I'll bring Huimei over."

"As you wish."

Lin Xiuqing hung up the phone after gossiping enough.

Ye Yaodong was also curious after hearing what she said, and prepared to go out to find his father and ask a few questions.

After asking several workers, they only said he was in the canteen, so he walked towards the canteen.

Still at the door, he heard Ye Xiaoxi's voice.

"... You lick faster, it's all melted below, you have to eat two, look, you can't even lick it in time! Can't waste it, you eat faster!"

"Left side, left side..."

"Right side is also dripping... fast, fast, fast..."

He pushed the door and went in, looking at Ye Fu licking the popsicle in a panic, licking the left side and then listening to the two little girls directing him to lick the right side. The right side had just been bitten off a piece and hadn't melted yet, and the left side was calling again.

Ye Fu said vaguely, "Too cold, can't eat it in time..."

"Fast, fast, fast, grandpa, left side, left side is dripping..."

"Oh, oh, oh..."

Ye Yaodong watched Ye Fu being spun around by the two little girls, curious, "What are you doing?"

Ye Xiaoxi complained, "I'm treating grandpa to a popsicle, he wants to eat two, but he can't eat them in time. Look at him, dripping everywhere, can't eat the left side in time, eating the right side, can't eat it in time."

Pei Yu also emphasized, "He's wasting popsicles!"

"No, no, no, I'm eating, it's too cold, I'm eating, I'll eat it all."

Ye Fu emphasized, biting off a big mouthful at the bottom, it was so cold it felt like his mouth was hot, the ice cube in his mouth rolled from left to right, and then he exhaled.

The two little girls emphasized again that the one in his hand was dripping again.

The two popsicles were eaten by Ye Fu until he was covered in sweat.

"When I asked you to buy popsicles for them, why did you eat them yourself, and even ate two?"

"I'm being filial, haven't seen them for many days, I missed them, and then he said he wanted to eat two!"

"So filial?"

"Of course, Dad, do you want to eat? I'll buy you one too."

"Alright, buy me one too."

Ye Fu was busy biting the remaining popsicle in, vaguely, "These two ancestors, if they weren't directing blindly, how would I not be able to eat them in time? One moment this one shouts the left side is dripping, one moment that one shouts the right side is dripping, clearly it hadn't melted, they were chirping so much I was about to get nervous."

Ye Xiaoxi patted Ye Fu after buying the popsicle for Ye Yaodong, "Can't eat two at once next time, know?"

Ye Fu nodded straight away, "Oh, oh, got it."

"Give me another one, I want another one," she turned to admonish Ye Fu, "You have to eat them one by one like me, can't eat two at once."

Ye Fu was helpless.

Ye Yaodong took a bite of the popsicle and also felt cool, his whole person felt comfortable, "Not working and hiding here to steal food, I'll deduct your salary."

"Eating people's mouth is soft, you just ate my popsicle, and you still want to deduct my salary!"

"Ha, that's true, then forget it today. Usually you're stingy and let your brother pay? Why are you so generous today, and even treat us to popsicles?"

Ye Xiaoxi tilted her head happily, "Grandpa gave me ten yuan, I was too happy, so I treated him to popsicles."

"No wonder, wool comes from the sheep, go, go back to work after eating, don't be lazy all day, work should look like work."

"Oh, then we're leaving."

Ye Fu touched his still cold cheek, "These ancestors, kept urging me to eat fast, my mouth is still cold until now."

"Old Pei brought his wife and children up?"

"Your mother called and told you?"

"Ah Qing told me."

"Your mother can really talk, there's no small matter that she doesn't call everywhere to talk, it's best to pull a bunch of people to watch the fun."

"Isn't this very normal? There's no entertainment in the countryside, whoever has some dog-shit things, there's a bunch of people to watch the fun."

Ye Fu found a place to sit down and said to him: "Quarreled for several days, had to bring them along before setting off. It was already discussed earlier, go to the family quarters to rent a room for the mother and son to live in, otherwise putting them outside to live, he's not at ease either."

"The family quarters you built are quite good, convenient for everyone to bring their family, renting a house outside is not easy to rent and chaotic, and the houses are broken."

"When docking, he asked me to come and tell you, to arrange a better room. I said let him pick it himself, they are all built uniformly, where is there any good or bad, they are all the same."

"It's just that the size and floor of the room are different, the rent is of course different, let him pick it himself, you're busy to death, where do you have time to manage the small matter of renting a house."

"Let them go see what they want, I'm not necessarily able to see you the first time I come back. If I don't see you, do they not have to live?"

"That widow Ma thinks quite beautifully, and even told me she wants you to arrange a job for her, she also wants to come to the factory to work."

"I said even my own sister Huimei wasn't arranged a job, doesn't she have to look after the children? She even said she could bring the children to the factory together, let the children play by themselves."

"I'll let old Pei open a factory for her, let her bring the children to work, play and run as she pleases."

"Old Pei's brain was also pasted with shit, single for so many years, suddenly he was pasted with brain by a few bowls of rice and dishes. If he hadn't been bound by widow Ma, he wouldn't know how happy he would be now."

Ye Fu explained, "My mother said this last, not me. If I said this, your mother would say am I envious that his wife died."

Ye Yaodong coughed, "Let's just listen to the fun occasionally, anyway Huimei has already separated."

"Heard you already selected the address for the fish meal factory? Are you going to build it yet?"

"Not yet, waiting for government approval, but it shouldn't be difficult. After the approval comes down, I'll go to Shanghai, order the machines that should be ordered, I've already inspected them in Shanghai some time ago."

"Then if there's anything you need me to do, tell me again, I'll go to Chenghe's house to see my great-grandson first."

"No need for you to do anything now, when the fish meal factory is about to be built, you go help patrol the progress every day, there's nothing urgent later. Let the fishing boats rest for two days, and go to sea on August 1st."

He wasn't sure when he would go back to his hometown, he would talk about it later, let the things at hand be busy for a while. ===== CHAPTER 1803 =====
