Chapter 1810

~8 min read 1,537 words

The next morning, Ye Yaodong drove a tractor to the city, with a yawning child sitting on each side, and a truckload of goods behind him.

It happened that because the weather was good recently, a large batch of dried fish was filled in the warehouse, and his mother asked him to drive the tractor directly, and by the way, he could help pull a truckload of goods, anyway, the goods had to be sent to the city.

As for when he would come back, it didn't matter, anyway, it was just a few days, when the car came back, she would arrange for someone to pull a truckload to the city.

Ye Yaodong accepted the arrangement, for him, it was the same to drive any car to the city.

"Dad, why is it so early?"

"It's less hot early, it will be very hot when the sun comes out later."

"All right."

The two looked around bored, not awake, but couldn't sleep, and the car was bumpy.

"Dad, are we going to buy a game console today?"

"Let your brother answer you."

"Ah?"

Ye Chengyang was very bored, just happened to answer the question for his father, and by the way, said his father's itinerary for the past two days.

"Why do you know everything, and I don't?"

"When you sneaked out yesterday, I asked Dad."

"Then you still asked me to tell Dad, let Dad buy us a game console first when we get to the city, it turns out you can talk well when I'm not there."

"Didn't I fail? Leave it to you to say next time..."

"You're not good enough to succeed, but you're good enough to fail. Now it's good, we can only wait for Dad to finish his work."

"You're so good, why didn't you tell Dad yesterday?"

"I didn't have time..."

The two started arguing again, and didn't feel bored anymore.

Ye Yaodong listened to one ear on the left and one ear on the right, and the two could argue even with him as a middleman.

Lin's father and mother had already received the call that they were coming today the day before, and the food was already prepared, just waiting for them to arrive to eat.

A whole family was waiting there, big and small, all looking forward to it.

When they heard the rumbling of the tractor at the door, they all ran out to welcome them.

"Grandpa, Grandma... Uncle, Aunt... Second Uncle, Second Aunt..."

Ye Chengyang and Ye Xiaoxi called them one by one.

The younger generation opposite also followed and called: "Uncle, Yangyang, Xiaojiu, you came too late..."

"We got up and set off at dawn, how is it late? I'm starving."

"We are also starving, hurry in and eat..."

Lin's father and mother also greeted Ye Yaodong, "Hurry in, eat first, it's noon, let's talk while eating."

"Such a big table..."

"There are still few people now. If we go back to our hometown for the New Year, two big tables might not be enough to sit."

Lin's father was also full of smiles when he talked about this. Which old man didn't like a prosperous and lively family.

"Same as our family, our family's two tables are not enough to sit for the New Year now. In two years, when they get married and have children one after another, it will take three tables."

Lin's mother said with a smile: "Speaking of this, I have to envy your father and mother again, holding one great-grandson after another."

"Soon there will be more."

"Ah? Is the one in your second brother's family married?"

"That's not, Chenghe's wife is pregnant with the second one."

"Your father and mother should be happy to death."

"You are also fast, A-Yuan, be quick, get married before the end of this year, and you can bring a big one and a small one back for the New Year next year."

Lin Xiang Hui said with a smile: "We are counting on him to get married early now. Even if he has a grandson, he probably won't have time to bring him back."

"They are all at the age, and it will be fast one after another. Maybe they will give you several grandsons and granddaughters in a year."

When Ye Yaodong was talking, everyone had already taken their seats casually.

"Eat while it's hot, although the weather is hot, food can't be eaten cold, it's not good for the stomach, eat first, there is wine here."

"I won't drink, I have things to do in the afternoon."

"Then eat more food..."

The elders at one table, the younger ones at one table, the house was crowded.

These younger ones were all adults now, each one was much taller than their father's generation, and their voices covered their voices. There were also Lin Xiuqing's sisters' children here, and the table was crowded.

Eating was lively, and they naturally said whatever they had to say. In the time of two mouthfuls of rice, everyone knew that they were going to buy a Little Tyrant game console later, and the whole table was envious, and they all expressed that they would buy one for their respective families.

Among these younger ones, the big ones were in their early 20s, and the small ones were 14 or 15 years old. Except for two or three who were still in the third year of junior high school and high school, they basically graduated from junior high school and didn't study.

They were not the material for studying, so they had already started making money early, or helping their families, and each could afford it, which was not empty talk.

Even Lin Xiuqing's two families were now working and making money in the city. The men learned from Lin Xiangyang to drive tractors, and the women took the girls in the family to make breakfast. Each day was prosperous.

The flow of people in this market was not comparable to ten years ago, the flow of people was more than ten times larger, and they couldn't even finish doing breakfast shops, and every morning was a hard battle.

So they didn't need to ask Ye Yaodong to help pull, find a job, etc. They came to rely on Lin's father and mother, which was enough for them to make a lot of money.

Isn't this better than letting Ye Yaodong arrange a job, leave their hometown, and earn that little dead salary?

That's why Lin Xiuqing's two sisters and their two families didn't need to dance in front of Ye Yaodong. They came to the city to rely on Lin's father and mother, which was only temporary. Relying on themselves to open a small shop was enough for them to live a prosperous life.

This was also why most large families were engaged in one industry. It wasn't because they could make money, so they brought all their relatives and friends, so that everyone was in the same industry, mostly in different places.

Like those who opened supermarkets could make money, most relatives and friends followed to open supermarkets everywhere.

Breakfast shops could make money, and their own families followed to make breakfast.

Driving tractors could make money, and the men in their families now went to drive tractors to pull goods. This could be done for another 10 years, which was enough to earn, and it was easy to change careers then.

In a large family, the economic level of each family had come up, so naturally, the family atmosphere would be better, and it would be more affectionate.

Lin Xiangyang's third son, Lin Guanggu, said: "Why don't you two follow us to play in the afternoon? I'll take you to buy a game console, you don't have to follow Uncle!"

"No, we have to go to Godfather's house in the afternoon, so we have to follow to visit, we can't play with you, we can only come back at night." Ye Chengyang was full of regret.

"Then forget it, then we'll go buy a game console ourselves in the afternoon, and when we come back at night, we'll play with you then."

"Ah! You're going to buy it in the afternoon? Do you have money?"

"Look down on who? I've saved up my wife's money."

Ye Xiaoxi was greedy, "Cousin Guanggu, how can you buy it as soon as you say it, you are too capable! Then you buy it back in the afternoon, and share it with us at night to see if it's fun."

"No problem! It's still you Shanghai people who know how to play, and you know the Little Tyrant game console. I didn't know, I only knew the Street Fighter."

"It's because you have to make big money every day, you don't have time, so you don't know. I didn't know either, Ye Erge heard it from his classmate. We don't have enough money yet. You say buy it, you buy it."

Lin Guanggu pinched her face, "Why are you so good at talking."

"Then you let me play for a while more at night."

"Hahahaha..."

Ps: Stuck again, hey, I'll add one tomorrow during the day.
