Chapter 1809

~11 min read 2,113 words

In the evening, after Ye Xiaoxi packed her clothes and put them in her schoolbag, she took out all her money.

Back for a few days, actually, not only did Ye Yaodong give her 100 yuan, but Ye Mu and the old lady also gave her ten-something yuan in bits and pieces.

She really didn't bring money herself.

She followed her father out, why would she need to bring money! She just wore a few clothes and left with her father.

So she totaled it up, she had 112 yuan, and a few cents in bits and pieces. In the past two days, she only bought popsicles and some small snacks, which only cost one or two yuan.

Touching the four Mao Zedongs on the heads, she was really a bit reluctant.

Her father gave it to her secretly, no one knew.

Ye Chengyang was also packing his schoolbag in his room, counting money by the way.

He had more, he originally brought thirty-something yuan, plus the bits and pieces Ye Mu and the old lady gave him in the past few days, he actually had 150 yuan.

When Ye Xiaoxi came to knock on the door, he quickly put the money away.

"Second brother, I only have 110-something yuan, I'll give you 100 yuan, you also pay 100, if it's not enough, we'll ask Dad for it then."

Ye Chengyang nodded, "Okay."

Just right, this 100 was also given by his father, which meant he bought the Little Tyrant learning machine without spending money, and Big Brother couldn't touch it!

Great!

"Brother, have you played the Little Tyrant game console? Is it fun?"

"Fun, I've played it at a classmate's house, it's super fun. We can buy a few more magnetic cards tomorrow. One magnetic card has a lot of games in it. Then you pick the ones you like, and I'll pick the ones I like."

"Okay, I can't wait to go."

"I guess we have to wait until Dad finishes his work before Dad will take us."

"Ah, beg Dad tomorrow, let Dad take us to buy it back first, and then we can plug it into the TV in the factory to play, and he won't have to think we're in the way."

"You say it."

Ye Xiaoxi looked at him with contempt, "Second brother, you're too sly, you enjoy the fruits of others' labor every day, and you call me to do everything. Every time Dad and Mom ask questions, you keep your mouth shut."

"Ah, I'm doing this to avoid mistakes, right? Talk more and do more, anyway, you can talk, let you say it all."

"It's because you don't talk that I answer."

"That's right, you can talk more if you can."

"Hmph, I'm going out to play."

"Dad told you not to run out today..."

"Dad said not to run out to get tanned in the sun. Now it's late at night and there's no sun, I'm going out to get tanned in the moon, I won't get dark. I haven't gone out to play all afternoon, I'll come back to watch TV at 7:30."

After speaking, she ran away. Being stifled at home for an afternoon was hard for her.

Only back for a few days, she hadn't played enough yet, and she was going to the city tomorrow. She had to go out to find her little friends to play, and by the way, she had to say hello to them. She wouldn't be home for these few days, so they didn't need to come to her to play.

She looked at herself still wearing tattered clothes, satisfied, and would change tomorrow.

Ye Yaodong was watching the news on the sofa downstairs with his feet up, watching her go down the stairs with a bang, bang, bang, and then changed to walking lightly holding the railing halfway, and then tiptoed from behind him to the door to go out, opening one eye and closing one eye.

Ye Xiaoxi couldn't help but jump twice after successfully sneaking out of the house, cheering silently with her teeth and claws, and then flew away.

Ye Chengyang also went downstairs bored after packing his things to watch the TV news next to Ye Yaodong.

Ye Yaodong glanced at him sideways and didn't speak.

Ye Chengyang moved over little by little, and then tentatively spoke, "Dad, what are we going to do first when we go to the city tomorrow?"

"First go to see your Grandpa, Grandma, Uncles, etc., have lunch, and then go to visit your Godfather and the others. When going out as a guest, dress neatly tomorrow."

"Oh, know it, what about the day after tomorrow?"

"The day after tomorrow I have to check accounts."

He asked carefully again, "Then when are we going shopping at the mall."

"After I finish my work?"

"Can we go the day after tomorrow? That way you don't have to worry about us when you're busy, we can play in the factory ourselves."

"Why did you suddenly think of buying a Little Tyrant?"

"Didn't I say it, I saw it at a classmate's house, and played it for a while, it's really fun."

"You didn't think of it when you were in Shanghai."

"Mom was there at that time, and it wasn't the holidays yet, so I didn't dare to say it."

"Then do you think I'm easier to talk to?"

Ye Chengyang nodded.

"Then why didn't you ask me to buy you a computer?"

"Can I?" He was full of hope.

Ye Yaodong glanced at him, he shook his head directly, full of desire to survive, "Dad, I'll just buy a game console! My sister and I pooled money, if it's not enough, you help us make up for it, and we'll give it to you when we go back to Shanghai."

"Sounds good, giving it to you is like a meat bun hitting a dog, there's no return."

"Dad... I was in the top 10 in the class in the final exam, I made progress... my sister's exam wasn't bad either..."

Ye Yaodong interrupted him, "All right, take the time to take you shopping after I finish my work, and then come back after shopping, and buy whatever you want to buy together then. When I'm busy, you go help Grandpa, Grandma, or Uncle and Aunt, don't run around."

"Oh, all right."

Anyway, it was fine if he promised to buy it, it would be fine if it was a day or two late.

After Ye Chengyang achieved his goal, he couldn't sit still, it was strange to watch TV with his father...

He had never watched TV alone with his father, and it was so quiet, he felt uncomfortable all over...

The TV was playing local news, and he couldn't find anything to say to his father.

Ye Chengyang learned the action of moving closer little by little just now, and moved to the side little by little, until he moved to the edge of the sofa, and then turned around quickly, turned to the back of the sofa, and then sneaked away just like Ye Xiaoxi.

It was still early to sleep, and there was no TV he wanted to watch.

The two were sneaky and openly sneaking away under his nose. Ye Yaodong just glanced at them when they ran out, and continued to watch his local news. There would be news broadcasts at 7 o'clock later.

The two were at the lively age of monkeys, and he didn't expect them to be able to sit still.

The old lady couldn't watch the news either, so she moved a stool to the door to enjoy the cool after the meal.

Watching the two children dash out quickly one after another, her cattail fan was raised, and just as she wanted to call someone, the figures disappeared.

"These two run faster than each other... can't call them back..."

"Just calmed down at noon, and disappeared again at night, and will come back covered in sweat later..."

Ye Chengyang and Ye Xiaoxi had a great time back these few days, there were too many things to play with, there were many partners, and every day there was a large group of people, either going to the seaside, or going to the mountains, or going to the river, or finding a cool place to play house games. A group of boys played football, it was simply too fun.

In Shanghai, they went to school every day, and only had time to play on weekends, but they couldn't run around, they could only be around the house, but there were no little friends to play with, mostly doing homework at home, watching TV, or making appointments with classmates to have companions.

And in Zhoushan, it went without saying, the factory was full of workers, they had nothing to play with, no companions, and nowhere to go. It wasn't that they loved to go to work, but they were so idle that they could only go to the factory to play and go to the factory to work.

Otherwise, why would they always think about returning to their hometown? They could play anywhere in their hometown, no one managed them, there were many little friends, there were too many places to go, and it was interesting.

They wouldn't stay for too many days when they came back, now naturally they played hard, and they were tanned like charcoal in just a few days.

If they didn't play hard, school would start in a few days.

But the two of them were thinking about watching TV at night, and they ran back just in time for the broadcast.

"Second brother? Why did you run out? Didn't you say you wouldn't come out?"

"When did I say I wouldn't come out? You ran away, of course I ran away too."

"Tsk, you were pretending at home earlier saying Dad wouldn't let you go out, I thought you were honestly staying at home as a Bodhisattva."

"How are you talking!"

"Shh... sneak in later..."

The two of them tacitly lightened their steps at the door, reduced the movement, first breathed evenly, the old lady talked to them, and they shushed.

The old lady smiled and fanned them with a cattail fan, patting their backs and legs to drive away mosquitoes for them.

"Covered in sweat again, have you taken a bath? Running like this every day..."

"Not yet, I'll go take a bath now, and then I won't go out." Ye Chengyang replied.

"Don't go out after taking a bath, watch TV at home, there are many mosquitoes outside, look at the mosquito bites all over your body, where did you drill, hurry home and apply some."

"Know it."

Ye Chengyang wiped some saliva himself, applied it wherever it was itchy, and then nailed a cross, walking into the house lightly.

Ye Yaodong was still leaning on the sofa watching TV, but the smell of smoke in the room was heavier than when they went out, the ashtray on the table was full of cigarette butts, and he also raised his feet.

"Go take a bath as soon as you come back, don't go out to feed the mosquitoes."

The sneaky brother and sister immediately let go of their hands and feet, Ye Xiaoxi flew to his side like a flower butterfly, pressed on his legs, and giggled.

"Dad, how did you know I went out?"

Ye Yaodong flicked her forehead, "Sneaking like a thief, you thought I didn't see it? What can you hide from my magic eyes?"

"Dad, you have fiery eyes like Sun Wukong."

Ye Yaodong lowered his head and bumped her forehead, "Now let you reveal your original shape."

"Hahahaha, I'm a pig, I belong to the pig."

"Hurry up and take a bath, you're covered in mosquito bites, and you're covered in sweat."

"Know it."

Ye Chengyang had been laughing hehe on the side, and followed upstairs as soon as Ye Xiaoxi ran.

After taking a bath, the family of three huddled on the sofa watching TV, plus the old lady who fanned them, it was complete.

Ye Chengyang didn't feel embarrassed at this moment, he didn't feel embarrassed if he didn't speak, because there was Ye Xiaoxi.

She huddled in Ye Yaodong's arms, playing with her feet with both hands, and also raised her legs, chattering about the TV, laughing from time to time, where would she be embarrassed, she would only feel noisy.

Ye Yaodong also chatted a few words from time to time, and he followed up with a few words, only warmth remained.
