Chapter 261

Ye Yaodong came out of A Cai's house with a huge sum of money, and seeing that it was still bright, he went to the old house. This money had to be shared first.

It just happened that the old house had just finished eating. His mother was washing dishes at the back door, and his father was chopping wood. He called them both into the room.

"What's the matter, can't you let me wash the dishes first? And still mysterious and in a hurry..." Ye Mu nagged, put both hands on her apron, wiped them, and followed into the room.

When Ye Yaodong smiled and took out a large handful of big banknotes, Ye Mu's eyes widened, full of joy, "The money for the abalone is back?"

"Right, now do you want to enter the room?"

Ye Mu smiled and glared at him, "How much money?"

Ye Fu's dark face also smiled into a ball, "Is there a thousand for abalone plus sea snails?"

"Yes, that order plus miscellaneous goods sold for a total of 1079 yuan 6 mao. A Cai directly calculated it as an integer and gave 1080."

"He's quite good at doing things and selling favors."

"Otherwise? A lot of money was earned by him, and he's still short of these few mao? If it were me, I would have to round it up."

Ye Mu smiled and said, "Have you counted the money? Don't count it wrong, there's so much."

"Counted it once before, do you want to count it again?"

"I'll count..." Ye Mu dipped her thumb in saliva and started counting, and also called Ye Fu to count together.

Ye Yaodong sat at the table with his legs crossed, shaking his feet and watching them with a smile.

Ye Huimei also heard the movement and came out of the room. Seeing her father and mother holding a stack of banknotes and counting them, she was also pleasantly surprised, "The money is received?"

"Why are you staying in the room all day for nothing?"

"Making clothes."

"Isn't your third sister-in-law making them for you?"

"Can third sister-in-law make them for me from inside to outside? Don't I have to make socks and things myself? You're a big man, what do you know? Asking everything..."

Ye Yaodong instantly understood and didn't ask anymore.

"Third brother, how much did it sell for in total?"

"1080."

"Wow, so much!"

At this time, Ye Mu also stopped counting banknotes and smiled, "That's right, it's 1080."

"If it's wrong, you can't turn your head and ask others for it. Once you leave their sight, who will admit it if there's a mistake? It's unclear."

Besides, arguing is easy to hurt harmony. Money is something that must be counted on the spot.

Ye Huimei held Ye Mu's arm and said, "Mother just purely wants to count it, to satisfy the addiction of counting?"

Ye Mu smiled and glanced at her, "I haven't counted money?"

"Alright, after counting, let's share the money..." Ye Yaodong grabbed a handful and started counting.

The other three looked forward to him counting the money.

He counted 40 sheets, put them on the table to the side, then counted the rest again. After confirming it was correct, he pushed them to his mother.

Mm... his mother manages the money and is the head of the family...

Ye Mu looked surprised at the banknotes of obviously different thickness, "Do we have so many? How much did you count?"

"I have 400, you have 680... Don't rush to say it, you and younger sister also put in labor, and father also suffered quite a bit. Sharing it like this is fair..."

"No, no, we count as one share. Younger sister and I were originally helping to dig along the way, and father following you out to sea is already taking advantage."

Ye Fu also nodded and said, "Right, how much does it cost to hire a helper..."

"Hiring a helper, maybe my life would be gone. Family, you should take what's yours. I even forgot to sell that oarfish, and the money wasn't taken out to share."

"No need, no need, that doesn't need to be shared, counting as a dividend is already taking advantage."

Ye Fu firmly refused, counted the money again, halved it, and pushed it to him.

"Halving it is fine, it's also me and your mother taking advantage."

Ye Mu also echoed, "Right, you take it."

Ye Yaodong looked at the banknotes pushed to him, didn't pretend to push them back and forth, simply accepted them directly, and then counted 4 sheets and handed them to Ye Huimei.

"Here, reward for you!"

Ye Huimei widened her eyes in surprise, "Ah, I have some too?"

She was just joining in the fun on the side.

"Of course, you worked so hard for me, I have to give you a red envelope as a reward. You wrap it in red paper yourself."

"Haha, thank you third brother~ third brother is generous~" Ye Huimei happily accepted it.

Ye Mu glared at her, "Hands so fast, a person's monthly salary is only this much..."

Ye Huimei happily shook the big banknote in her hand, "Hehe... my third brother is rich and generous, why shouldn't I take it. Haha~ Mother, don't you have to express yourself too?"

Ye Yaodong sat on the side with a smile, watching his younger sister act!

Ye Mu slapped her, "40 yuan, is it not enough for you, girl? Still thinking about mine, no way!"

"Stingy!" She looked at her father with a smile again, holding his arm, "Father, I've been a helper for you, look, third brother gave so much..."

Ye Fu looked at the happy appearance of the family with a smile, "Then I'll give you one."

Ye Mu stared with her eyes!

"Give it to her, give her one, it's not much, she also put in effort..."

"Mother... look, Father has spoken!" Ye Huimei was triumphant.

Ye Mu glared at Ye Fu with a reproachful look, unwillingly pulled one out, "You just spoil her, wait until she goes to someone else's house and see if you still spoil her like this..."

"Sigh... isn't she not married yet..."

Speaking of this, the old father felt suffocated in his heart. When they first talked about the marriage, he didn't feel anything, but the closer the day got, the more uncomfortable he felt. Every time A Guang came to deliver things, he looked at him with dissatisfaction, but his wife at home looked more and more satisfied...

Ye Mu glared at Ye Huimei. "When did you become like your Third Brother, only knowing how to eat?"

"Hey? Is anyone home?"

"A Guang comes quite diligently, right?" Ye Yaodong said while going to open the door.

"Dongzi is here too?"

"Why do you come after dark every time? Is it unpresentable or what?"

"Just finished picking goods for my uncle at the pier, so I sent them over."

"What fish did you take? Big prawns, sole fish..."

"Mm, knowing you dried a lot of toadfish, I didn't take toadfish. My uncle came back late today, so I brought them over now, but it's cold now, so they won't spoil tomorrow."

Ye Yaodong handed the basket to his mother, "Alright, just put it down. I'm going back too, let's go together!"

"Ah?" A Guang was pulled and walked outside, widening his eyes and turning his head to look a few more times.

Ye Mu happened to be saying: "Ah? Not coming in to sit for a while?"

Ye Fu's voice came from behind in a low voice, "It's dark..."

"How was your uncle's cargo collection? How many days did he go?" Ye Yaodong said while putting his arm around his shoulder and walking.

A Guang looked at his future brother-in-law helplessly and had no choice but to go with him. Anyway, they had been together all day picking dried shrimp and talking all day, so it didn't matter whether he entered the door at night or not.

"Quite good. It's been sunny for several days recently. He went for three days before coming back, with a full boat of harvest. He netted over two thousand jin of toadfish, over two hundred jin of sole fish, over one hundred jin of halibut, and other miscellaneous goods. It's alright."

"Is your boat repaired, are you going out at night?"

"Repaired, going out. Resting for a day is a day's loss. Haven't you rested enough?"

"Planning to rest for a few more days, my father's rheumatism is acting up, so I'm holding on."

"That's fine, anyway, you earned enough this trip, resting for ten days or half a month is fine."

"Who said that, this trip wasn't earned by me alone, but it's not bad. Rest for a few more days, rest for a few more days."

The two walked forward with their arms around each other's shoulders, and finding that their pockets were out of cigarettes, they prepared to go to the small shop to buy some. Just as they walked into a small path, they heard scolding, and the scattered people on the road were whispering and returning home.

They walked closer curiously to listen.

"Didn't they say they made a fortune? Earned a lot of money? Still short of this little electricity bill..."

"Freezing to death, if it weren't for wanting to watch TV, who would be willing to come out?"

"Heard that the richer people are, the stingier they are..."

"Finding excuses every three days to not let people watch, not letting people watch on rainy days, not letting people watch when it's windy. It's only been sunny for a few days, everyone has only watched for a few days, and today they directly turned their faces..."

"Neighbors, anyway, their family has to watch it, what's wrong with sharing it with everyone? Too stingy..."

"Then no one will be allowed to watch in the future?"

"Not coming, who is willing to come? Earning some money and looking at people with nostrils in the sky, having money is amazing..."

Listening to the villagers discussing, the two instantly understood what happened.

"Is it your cousin's house?"

"Right? There's only one TV in the village, right?"

"This is not letting people watch."

"Whatever, anyway, I'm not interested."

"Go and see, it's right next door, it seems they're still scolding."

Being free is being free, Ye Yaodong went forward with him. He saw his eldest cousin-in-law sweeping the floor at the door with a broom, muttering words.

"Watched for a few days, it's enough to mean it, still coming to the door every day, do you think my family's TV is shared by the brigade? Don't you need electricity bills? Have the nerve..."

"After watching, patting the butt and leaving, I have to clean up the melon seed shells all over the floor..."

"It's freezing cold, and I have to move it in and out, too full..."

Indeed!

Ye Yaodong looked at the mess all over the floor. These people had just arrived at the place, and there were already melon seed shells, orange peels, and garbage thrown everywhere. After watching for a few hours, wouldn't the ground be even more scary? Who wouldn't have a headache after watching?

Spent a lot of money to buy a TV, why move it out for people to watch every day? And have to follow behind as a mother to clean up.

The key is that it's freezing cold, and you have to accompany them to blow the wind at the door. Isn't it comfortable to watch TV comfortably at home?

It's good to watch for a few days to mean it. These people are really tactless. Not letting them watch, and still whispering behind their backs.

You can't be too easy to talk to as a person, it's easy to let people climb on your nose.

Ye Yaodong stood at the door for a while, not preparing to go up and say hello. After eating a melon, he hooked A Guang's shoulder and planned to leave.

"Leaving, going home, anyway, I can't afford a TV."

"Cut~ who believes it, you're almost a ten-thousand-yuan household in the village, it's spread all over the village."

"Nonsense! How long have I been out to sea? People who raise pigs earned a ten-thousand-yuan household in a whole year, just spreading rumors."

"Spread that you made a fortune, not happy to be a ten-thousand-yuan household?"

"Happy my ass, I'm short, you make it up for me?"

"Thinking beautifully, why don't you help your brother-in-law?" A Guang snorted lightly, "It's okay, you earn slowly, it should be soon. When you become a ten-thousand-yuan household and buy a TV, these people will go to your house to watch TV!"

"Damn, whether it's a ten-thousand-yuan household or not is not important. When I buy a TV, see if these people dare to come to my house and let me move it out to share?"
