Chapter 181: The Person Selling the Boat

~11 min read 2,196 words

Lin Xiuqing greeted him with a smile, "You're finally back, the guest has been waiting for a while."

The man also stood up, walked over, and said with a smile: "Hehe, you are the son of Lin Jingye's friend, right?"

As soon as Ye Yaodong heard him mention Lin Shu, he understood. This person should be the one who said he wanted to sell the boat yesterday. He didn't expect him to come to the door so soon.

He was pleasantly surprised, put away his doubts, filled his face with smiles, and said with a laugh: "Yes, it's me. Uncle, you are Lin Shu's friend, right? You are the boat boss who is going to buy a big boat of more than 30 meters, right?"

"Yes, it's me. My name is Zhao Chengzhou. I just came to find Lin Jingye, but he wasn't at home. His wife took me to your old house, but there was only a little girl and an old lady at home. The little girl knew my intention and brought me here. But I didn't expect you to go to sea too. I didn't come at a very coincidental time."

"Sorry to keep Uncle Zhao waiting for a long time, really sorry. Let's sit down and talk."

"Didn't wait long..."

"Ah! Adong, what did you bring back?" Lin Xiuqing exclaimed. She originally wanted to see what he brought back today, whether there were small fish to kill and dry, but she didn't expect there to be such disgusting and strange things in the bucket.

Ye Yaodong was also startled by her. He only paid attention to this middle-aged man named Zhao Chengzhou when he came back, and forgot to tell her not to look.

He hurriedly went over and patted her on the back, "Weren't scared, right? Forgot to tell you, don't look, leave it, I'll handle it in a while."

"Is this a snake? Why are there so many, and they look so scary? Where did you get them?"

"Caught at sea. This is a blue-banded sea snake. It should be their reproductive season now. Today I encountered them gathering together, forming a long snake formation of thousands of meters. I was lucky to catch dozens. I removed their heads, they are already dead, don't be afraid, don't look, I'll handle them in a while." He said while patting her to soothe her.

"Oh... You take the receipt and the money for selling snakes first. Originally two big buckets, sold them and left a dozen back."

His wife likes counting money the most. This is naturally the best soothing.

Zhao Chengzhou on the side also walked over curiously, "It's rare to encounter them, quite powerful, and can catch so many."

"Good luck. Uncle Zhao, take two back later. I'll ask my wife to steam some dried fish, stir-fry two dishes, and we'll drink some rice wine, eat and talk."

The smile on Zhao Chengzhou's face deepened a lot. This kid knows how to behave.

"How can I be embarrassed?"

"It's fine, I caught them myself, and they are not very good things anyway. If you don't dislike them, take two back to eat and play, that's fine."

"No need, no need, you keep them for yourself..."

"Wow, Dad, what is this?" The two naughty ghosts heard that their father was back, so they hurriedly ran home. Seeing the sea snakes in the bucket, they were not afraid, and even curiously reached out and poked them twice.

Really bold!

Ye Yaodong didn't care about them, smiled and invited Zhao Chengzhou to sit down, "Uncle Zhao, don't be polite. You are Lin Shu's friend and my elder. It's not a very good thing anyway."

Lin Xiuqing heard that Ye Yaodong wanted to keep the guest for a drink, so she couldn't care about counting money, and hurriedly took the money and the receipt into the room to put away.

Then she took out the dried fish steamed in the pot. She originally planned to steam a bowl for dinner, but it happened to be on the table at this time. She took out the rice wine made by the family.

Then she stopped the two naughty ghosts and let the eldest wait at the doorway. If his eldest uncle came back, let him go to the old house to call Ye Father over to drink and accompany the guest.

As for Lin Shu, she could only wait until she finished arranging the meal before going to call him. She guessed that they would definitely talk about buying and selling the boat.

Sure enough, after Ye Yaodong filled Uncle Zhao with wine, he asked straight to the point: "I heard from Lin Shu that Uncle Zhao wants to change to a big boat of more than 30 meters. Did Uncle Zhao find a suitable one?"

"I've been looking for half a month, and I only found a suitable one today. That's why I heard from Jingye that you wanted to buy a boat, and I came to your door directly today."

Ye Yaodong was overjoyed. It was really a good thing coming to the door.

"How many meters is Uncle Zhao's boat, how many tons can it carry, and how many years is the machine?"

The two chatted while drinking. Although there was a generation gap, they were quite speculative. After all, Ye Yaodong's experience in his previous life was there, and he had a set of things to say about things at sea. Zhao Chengzhou also chatted with him very happily.

As soon as Ye Father came back, he heard Ye Huimei say it. He took a bath, didn't even eat, and hurried over. Halfway, he met Ye Chenghu who was looking for him, and brought him along by the way.

Lin Jingye heard from his wife at home and came out without eating, arriving just a step or two after him.

Lin Xiuqing moved all the family's inventory out, arranged several side dishes for drinking, and let them drink and chat slowly.

The two children only needed a bowl of shrimp stir-fried with eggs, which was enough. After eating, they went to play with snakes again. She didn't dare to touch this thing and just threw it there.

The four people chatted more and more enthusiastically, drinking until the sky was completely dark, and all 8 jin of rice wine were drunk, but the matter was almost discussed.

It's always easy to talk about things at the wine table.

Zhao Chengzhou needed a large amount of funds to change to a big boat, and he was in urgent need of money now, so he came to the door directly today when there was news.

Ye Yaodong also wanted to get the boat early. After understanding the condition of the boat, the two hit it off. As long as Zhao Chengzhou drove the boat over tomorrow, they would inspect the boat. If there was no problem, they could pay and receive the boat.

Before leaving, Ye Yaodong was very good at behaving and sent two blue-banded sea snakes to each of them.

"I told you not to be polite, don't be polite! It's not an outsider. You are all my father's friends. Are two snakes worth being so polite? Maybe there will be something that needs to trouble Uncle Lin and Uncle Zhao in the future."

Ye Father also said with a slurred tongue: "Yes, take them all. Caught them myself, not bought. Dong Zi caught quite a few, don't be polite."

Lin Shu hiccuped, his face flushed, and he smiled, "Fine, fine, then we won't be polite to you. Each of us will grab two and take them back."

"I'll go get a straw rope to tie them."

Ye Yaodong went to the doorway to find some straw, rubbed it into a straw rope, and tied two snakes for each of them to take back. By the way, he also let his father take two back.

After sending everyone away, he leaned against the door panel and breathed a long sigh of relief, and hiccuped.

Lin Xiuqing hugged his waist and patted his chest, "Why did you drink so much? You're red to your neck."

"I'm happy! We're changing to a new boat."

Ye Yaodong's mouth split wide, smiling brightly. He hugged his wife and buckled her back of the head for a fierce kiss.

"Oh, we're still at the doorway, why are you doing this?" Lin Xiuqing pushed his chest lightly, dodging embarrassedly.

He was also a bit drunk, the wine energy came up, and he happily picked her up horizontally and went to the room.

"Ah~ You're drunk, right? Put me down quickly, the two children are still playing next door, don't let them see..."

"What are you afraid of!"

His arm strength had increased after working for a few months. Although it was a bit strenuous to hold his wife, it was no problem just to go to the room.

Lin Xiuqing didn't struggle either, knowing he was happy.

Gently placing her on the bed, it was another fierce kiss and groping.

With good things happening one after another recently, Ye Yaodong was becoming more and more reliable and considerate. The relationship between the couple was warming up faster and faster, quite like being in love.

The couple rolled enthusiastically on the bed for a while. Lin Xiuqing was a bit confused by the kiss, and her clothes were almost taken off, but the two little cubs pushed the door in with a bang, calling while walking.

"Dad, Mom, Brother Ahai said he wanted to take a flashlight to the beach to shine on small fish, can we... go... Dad, Mom, what are you doing? Are you stacking arhats?"

Looking at the innocent eyes of the two children, Lin Xiuqing's face turned red. She didn't know if it was because of the excitement just now or because of embarrassment. She kicked the man on her body, and hurriedly smiled and explained to the children.

"Your dad is drunk, Mom is helping him back to the room, he's too heavy, I was flattened by him."

Ye Yaodong pulled the quilt to cover a certain part of his body, listening to the muffled laughter there. How come he didn't find his wife quite cute?

Well... she is only 25 years old now...

Lin Xiuqing glared at him when she heard the movement on the side. However, she didn't know that the style flowing between her eyebrows at this time had no deterrent power at all, making people want to pounce on her and do whatever they wanted, dismantle and eat her.

"Ah? Oh..."

Ye Chenghu blinked his eyes, still thinking about going to the beach, and didn't bother to struggle, hurriedly asked again, "Then can I go to the beach with Brother Ahai? They want to take a flashlight to the beach to catch small fish."

Lin Xiuqing said seriously with a straight face when she heard this: "Not allowed to go, it's more dangerous at night. If you fall into the sea, who will save you?"

"Won't, we will definitely be careful."

"No, it's time to sleep, nowhere is allowed to go? If your Brother Ahai dares to go, your eldest aunt will peel his skin."

The eldest son is only 5 years old, and the younger son is not even two weeks old. They actually dare to run to the seaside at night without adults watching? Tired of living?

"We'll just take a look and come back."

Lin Xiuqing's face dropped, she got up and took a bundle of bamboo strips. This was brought from her old house. This thing was easier to use than her breaking her mouth.

"Skin is itchy, right? All stay in the room, nowhere to go, I'll go get you foot-washing water, wash and sleep."

"Dad..."

Ye Yaodong lay flat there, with his hands behind his head, his eyes narrowed into a slit with a good mood, "Calling me is useless! It's really dangerous at night, not allowed to go."

"But it's fun at night? Brother Ahai said, Eldest Uncle said that there will be many fish if you shine with a flashlight at night."

"Don't think about it, without adults, none of you can go? If you go, I'll pull you back and break your legs!"

The two children's protests were invalid, and they could only wash their faces and hands and feet reluctantly, jump on the bed, and after being scolded, they squeezed tightly to Lin Xiuqing's side and quarreled.

"Mom is mine!"

"Is mine!"

"Mine!"

Fell into a dead loop...

Ye Yaodong's head hurt from their noise. He wasn't that sober after drinking, and shouted: "Shut up, she is my wife!"

"Mine!"

"Mine!"

"Two little cubs, sleep in the small bed tomorrow!"

"I don't want to, you are shameful, so big, still want to sleep with Mom!"

"This is my wife!"

Now it was Lin Xiuqing's turn to have a headache, "Are you childish? All shut up, sleep!"

Now it's quiet!
