Chapter 30: Being a Nanny for Once

~7 min read 1,378 words

When several men walked back, those women on the beach were still digging, and the children were still playing, not feeling hungry, one by one covered in sand and sweat, yet laughing so happily.

Ye's several children even dug a big pit, let the youngest, Ye Chengyang, sit inside, and buried him until only his shoulders were exposed.

If Ye Yaodong had come a bit later, Ye Chengyang would probably only have his head exposed.

He frowned. "You group of bear children can really play, it's very dangerous, you know? What if someone accidentally falls and presses on your little brother, or steps on him, what then? Hurry and dig him out for me!"

"Oh oh~ okay Third Uncle, we'll get Yangyang out immediately."

"Oh, normal, didn't we all play like this when we were young, how interesting," Azheng squatted down with a smile and looked at Ye Chengyang. "Is it fun?"

"Fun!"

"You idiot!" He said irritably, then shouted at his wife. "A-Qing, look at how stupid your son is."

Lin Xiuqing turned her head to look, only then discovered the youngest son was buried. She frowned, endured the soreness and numbness in her waist and legs, and walked a few steps faster.

"What kind of nonsense? How can you bury Yangyang? What if his chest is stifled and he can't breathe? Hurry and dig him out, several of you are so naughty, can play anything."

Looking at these children with flushed faces, dirty like mud monkeys, Ye Yaodong shook his head. "All follow me home first to wash, don't be an eyesore here, played for so long, it's about time. One by one, dirty to death, hurry and follow me back to wash."

"Ah, have to go home now? Are Mother and the others going back too?"

"You guys follow me back to wash and eat first, we'll go back in a moment."

Lin Xiuqing saw him actively requesting to take the children back first, and was also eager to do so. Having so many children beside her was noisy to death. "Listen, you guys go back to wash and eat first, we'll go back in a moment."

"Then fine."

The leading Ye Chenghu agreed, and the other children had no objection. It was already past 1 o'clock, everyone was actually starving.

Ye Yaodong let Hearing Xiao Xiao take the octopus, and handed the water bucket to Azheng. "Put it there, I'll go directly to A-Guang's house in the evening."

"Pour it into my bucket, you take the bucket back, save forgetting it."

"Also fine."

Several people left first. After the youngest son was dug out, he lifted him up. "Let's go, going home."

Lin Xiuqing saw his bucket was emptied all of a sudden, and didn't say anything. At least the big goods, tiger grouper and blood clams, were handed over. Today could also be considered a considerable income. If those seafood were taken away, let them be taken away.

"Third Uncle, why did you think of coming to pan for seafood today? Mother and the others all said the sun came out from the west." Ye Chenghu walked beside Ye Yaodong, asking like a little adult.

Ye Yaodong looked down at him and squinted, saying casually: "No side dishes for drinking, and no money in my pocket, don't I have to pan for some free seafood to drink?"

"Just say so! How could Third Uncle change his nature?" Ye Chenghu looked like he understood, looking a bit annoying.

His hand itched and he flicked his eldest nephew's head. "What do you know? A little brat, did you do your summer homework?"

"Oh, just released for a few days, what's the rush, still have several months, hate people asking me about homework, asking me about grades the most." After speaking, he turned his head to the side, walked a few steps faster, and didn't walk beside his Third Uncle.

Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes. None of their family could study!

It had been a few years since the college entrance examination was opened, and their village hadn't produced a college student to this day. People of his generation, the 50s and 60s, in their village, being able to recognize some characters was already quite good.

"Walk properly, don't chase and fight, knees will see blood immediately if you fall on this dirt road. And you guys, what are you grabbing in the bushes? Hurry back..."

He shouted and scolded all the way, only then drove this group of naughty troublemakers home, his mouth was dry from shouting.

This nanny work was really not light, and it was a group of children, he was shouted until he was angry.

The moment he entered the house, he took the water pot and gulped it down, but these stinking children either pulled his

"Third Uncle, are you done drinking?"

"Third Uncle, hurry up!"

"Third Uncle, don't drink so much. Leave some for us; we're thirsty too."

"Dad, I want some too..."

"Cough, cough, cough~ Here, take it, take it!" Being tugged by them, he had choked on his drink. These stinky kids!

The old lady watched them with a smile from the side. "Once you're done drinking, go to the back door to take a shower. Two buckets of water have already been boiled, and there's a big pot left on the stove. Dongzi, take the boiling water to the back door in a while, and mix it with two buckets of well water for them to wash."

"Got it. You sit down and rest; don't keep busy walking back and forth." Ye Yaodong helped the old lady to a nearby table to sit down.

"Hey, I just boiled some hot water, I'm not busy with anything. When your mother went to the pier, she said we'd have sweet potato noodles for lunch, so I didn't even cook rice."

"Oh, then you sit there. I'll take them to the back door to wash up."

He was actually fine himself, not very dirty, just sweaty. He could just rinse off quickly in a bit. It was the few kids who were dirty, covered in sand from head to toe, and he had to help them wash!

The three nieces took water to their rooms to wash themselves, while the five boys stood naked in the backyard. The older ones could wash themselves, but the two youngest were his sons, so he had to help.

"Stop, stop, stop, Dad! You got it in my eyes. Do you even know how to do this?"

"It's good enough that I'm washing your hair. Just rinse it off and it'll be fine. Hurry up and come over!"

"Mom always puts a basin on a stool and lets me lie on her lap to wash my hair. Sigh~ move aside, I'll do it myself. You wash Yangyang." Ye Chenghu dodged to the side in disgust, intending to rinse himself.

"If you want to wash yourself, then wash yourself. I'm acting as your nanny and you don't even appreciate it. I don't want to serve you either."

Looking at his tiny youngest son waiting on the side, he felt he didn't know how to wash him either. "Forget it, wait for your mom to come back to wash your hair. You sit in the basin, and I'll wash your body."

"Hee hee~ Haha~ It's so itchy~ So itchy~ Dad~"

Hearing the milky voice, the corners of Ye Yaodong's mouth curled up. He had never noticed before that his youngest son was quite cute when he was little.

"Neck is done, armpits need washing too, hurry up!"

"No~ it's so itchy~"

"You stinky brat, you splashed water all over me!"

Ye Chengyang slapped the water in the basin, feeling like he had discovered a fun game. He kept slapping the water surface with both hands, splashing Ye Yaodong's face full of water.

The eldest nephew next to him finished washing himself and poured the remaining water from the basin onto the second nephew. Well, the water splashed out directly drenched his head again.

He wiped his face, turned his head in a disheveled state, and said helplessly, "Ye Chenghai, you did that on purpose, right?"

"Huh? Haha~ No, who told you to squat there, Third Uncle!"
