Chapter 216: Good words are hard to persuade the dying ghost

Ye Yaodong stood at the door early in the morning, feeling that it had cooled down a bit today, listening to the northwest wind whistling in his ears, and the waves rolling on the sea in the distance.

He snorted a runny nose, wiped it with a handkerchief, and his second brother beside him also had a bit of a cold, also snorted a runny nose, then scraped it on the wall with his hand, rubbed his fingers back and forth, and finally scraped his nose again...

"It's windy, and the waves are so big, we can't go to sea today, it's been two days."

Ye Yaodong glanced at his second brother's hand obscurely, then looked away, continuing to look at the sea surface, "No way, it's windy, and with the wind and waves, we can't go."

"I heard it's going to rain again tomorrow, don't know if the waves will be big. We've rested for several days all of a sudden, don't know if there will be good weather later."

"Who knows? Can this be accurate?"

Ye Yaopeng also stood in front of his house. People who work at sea, who doesn't care about the weather and waves? Early in the morning, many villagers stood on the beach, all out to watch the tide and waves.

With such big wind and waves, it was another day of strike for the whole village.

At this time, Lin Xiuqing's voice came from the house, "Adong~"

"Ah?" He hurried to the house, "What for?"

"Go to the village and see if anyone has chickens to sell? Buy a chicken back, it's the beginning of winter today, let's stew a chicken to nourish ourselves."

"Alright, I'll buy a pig tripe by the way, stew it with the chicken to warm the stomach."

"Alright."

Ye Yaodong walked toward the only main road in the village with money in his arms, but saw someone setting up a stall in the center of the village selling freshly killed mutton. After thinking about it, he cut a leg of lamb and sent it to the old house, and by the way asked his mother, who had chickens for sale?

Unexpectedly, Ye's mother scolded him, saying he was wasting money, and then caught a big rooster from the backyard, tied its wings with straw, and handed it to him, whispering, "Don't let your eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law know."

"Got it."

"Hey... wait..."

After thinking about it, Ye's mother went to get a small basket, filled it with 20 eggs, and handed it to him, "Eat it for your wife, nourish her."

"Aren't you keeping them to hatch chicks?"

"It's still early to hatch chicks. Hens won't brood until spring. Eggs will go bad if left for too long, take them for her to eat, eggs laid by our own chickens are good."

"Alright."

Ye Yaodong went home happily with a chicken in his left hand and a basket of eggs in his right, but on the way, he met Ye's second sister-in-law wandering back and forth in the center of the village. He had seen her before, and met her again, was she that free?

Didn't she usually sit and weave nets whenever she had time?

He was puzzled for a moment, then threw it behind his head, anyway, it wasn't his wife wandering around blindly.

After taking the eggs back, he told his wife to eat one every day, and then asked her to boil water, while he took a kitchen knife and sharpened it at the back door for a while.

Immediately after, he took a small bowl, filled it with a little clean water, sprinkled a little salt, mixed it evenly, and set it aside for later use.

The two children squatted on the ground, looking curiously at the big rooster, "Dad, are we going to eat chicken tonight?"

"You two move away, I'm going to kill the chicken."

He plucked some of the hair on the chicken's neck, then wiped it with a knife, and grabbed its flapping wings and neck hard. The two children widened their eyes and shouted there.

Ye Yaodong put the chicken neck toward the bowl to bleed, and only threw it on the ground to twitch after it couldn't drip blood.

He also took over the work of plucking the chicken hair, not letting his wife touch it. Since he didn't go to sea and was at home, he helped do more work.

At this time, voices came from the room next door.

"I saw you going in and out, in and out early in the morning. Today is the beginning of winter, the whole village is killing chickens and ducks, and you don't have any movement..."

"Eat, eat, eat, all day long you only know how to eat, eat, eat. So what if it's the beginning of winter, who stipulated that the beginning of winter must eat well? Do you want to slaughter me and eat me? If you hadn't lent the money out, you could eat whatever you want..."

"How... how come you mention this again..."

"Can't I talk about it if you can do it?"

The room suddenly rang with the sound of throwing and hitting, ping-pong-pong...

Living too close is the only bad thing; the neighbors on the left and right know every little movement in anyone's house.

Lin Xiuqing and Ye Yaodong exchanged a glance and said in a low voice, "Interest! It expired yesterday..."

Ye Yaodong understood instantly, it had been a month, no wonder he saw his second sister-in-law wandering on the road early in the morning.

This was only the second day, and she couldn't sit still early in the morning...

According to his experience, the first one or two months are definitely stable, the interest is definitely there, and as for later, hehe...

Sure enough, when their family woke up from their nap in the afternoon, they heard Ye's second sister-in-law happily promoting to the eldest sister-in-law at the door, instilling how reliable and punctual the eldest cousin was. Yesterday, when the time came, she went to the door this afternoon and got the money...

When Lin Xiuqing went to the door to collect clothes, Ye's second sister-in-law also pulled her and said happily that it was fortunate she didn't listen to them, otherwise she would have missed such a good money-making opportunity.

As she spoke, she took out the money in her pocket to show them, trying to prove that she really made money...

Lin Xiuqing laughed twice, "Then second sister-in-law can finally be at ease, instead of sitting or standing early in the morning, you can also stew a supplement and celebrate with the whole family."

Ye Yaodong leaned against the door and just wanted to laugh, teasing, "Better not eat it? The money second brother lent out, second sister-in-law has to earn two months of interest to break even."

The happy expression on Ye's second sister-in-law's face instantly flashed a trace of heartache, and suddenly she couldn't be happy anymore, directly putting the money into her pocket.

Ye's eldest sister-in-law hesitated and said, "Don't know if I can still join the eldest cousin's place? Did you ask when you got the interest?"

Seeing that the eldest sister-in-law was also moved, Ye's second sister-in-law became proud again, feeling that she was really too wise at the time, joining early and earning money early, this clearly earned a month more than others, there were 25 yuan.

You don't have to do anything, and you have money coming in, it's just too happy.

"Asked, asked, eldest cousin-in-law said yes. Look, 25 yuan a month, 300 yuan a year, if you invest 1000 yuan, 50 yuan a month, 600 yuan a year... my god... this is more than I earn weaving nets for two years..."

"Yes... my god... this calculation can earn a lot of money, and it will break even in two years, the rest are all earned..."

"It's better for us to pay the money early so we can get interest a day early..."

"Are you going to continue adding money? How much..."

The two sisters-in-law were whispering excitedly there, their eyes getting brighter the more they talked.

Ye Yaopeng was chopping wood at the door, originally a bit hesitant, but was also persuaded by the two women in a few words.

Seeing his wife still listening intently after collecting the clothes, Ye Yaodong hurriedly called her back, "Aqing, the chicken should be stewed, right? Scoop a bowl for the two children first!"

"Oh, coming."

Good words are hard to persuade the dying ghost.

Don't let his wife be brought bad!

As a result, before evening, Ye Yaodong heard at dinner that his two good sisters-in-law hurriedly took another 500 yuan each and sent it over in the afternoon!

The reason is, if they wait until tomorrow, they will be a day late to settle the interest...

Really, money is too much, burning hands!

After building the house and separating the family, the money is all in their own hands, feeling that the men's money in the family is too easy to earn?

Actually sending money to others, and sending it so impatiently, for fear that others will go back on their word.

He couldn't help but look at his wife, feeling that he had to warn her again. These three sisters-in-law lived close to each other, and she might have more than him. All his family wealth was in her hands.

He said earnestly, "Aqing, don't be influenced by them. It's not easy for your man to earn money. Spending money on others is really not as good as spending it ourselves. For a few dozen yuan of interest, sending hundreds or thousands to others, and not seeing what they are doing with your own eyes? It's really not necessary to take that risk."

"I know, if I plan to take any money out, I will discuss it with you first. I also feel that they are a bit obsessed. That money comes too easily, the interest is so high, no matter how I think about it, I don't feel at ease."

That's right!

"Yes, yes, let's not think about these good things, just earn our own hard-earned money steadily."

"Knowing it's hard-earned money, you shouldn't think about buying this and that all day long just because you earned a little money. Look at the bicycle, it was sent over last night and put at home, and there was no chance to ride it out..."

"Who said that, I'm going to literacy class after eating, just ride the bike there."

When Ye Cheng-hu heard his father say he was going to ride a bicycle out, his eyes lit up and he interrupted, shouting, "Dad, I want to sit behind your bicycle!"

The other one didn't want to be left behind, "I want to too!"

"Want your head, want, want, want... Adults are talking, what are you children interrupting? Hurry up and eat your meal, the whole table of rice is falling, pick it all up and eat it."

After Lin Xiuqing finished scolding the children, she rudely scolded the children's father, "Then what about your diving three-piece set? You didn't even say a word, you just bought it secretly. The weather is getting colder day by day, do you still want to soak in the sea, don't even want your life..."

Ye Yaodong explained hurriedly, "Didn't I say it last night? I just prepared it in advance, just in case, it's nothing, I definitely can't dive in the middle of winter..."

"If you do this first and report later in the future, you can figure out the money yourself."

He smiled apologetically, "Hehe, just this once, next time I will definitely discuss it with you first. I didn't spend money indiscriminately, the money earned at sea is also used at sea."

Lin Xiuqing rolled her eyes at him, listening to him speak, still with a nasal sound, she felt a bit distressed, and couldn't bear to lecture him, and scooped him another bowl of chicken soup.

"Drink more chicken soup, your body is too weak..."

"I'm not weak, a cold is a cold! That's because I went into the water and blew cold wind after coming up, I'm already better today."

"Still not weak? Going to sea is so hard, going out at night is a whole day..."

"Then I'm not weak either!"

He absolutely refuses to admit that he is weak!

Lin Xiuqing didn't argue with him, "Remember to bring a pot of boiled water when you go out to class later, you still have a nasal sound when you speak."

"A little bit, it's nothing, it will definitely be better tomorrow."
