Fellow villagers saw him share so generously, heart also very happy.
"Dongzi more and more promising, Ye Lao San you have blessing, three sons each top each promising, family also two boats, you don't get rich, who gets rich?"
"Yeah, yeah, your family really looks like it's getting more and more prosperous. Once our new house is built, we'll move over too. We'll be neighbors; let's see if we can catch some of your good fortune and trade our small wooden boat for a big one."
Speaking is Zhou Yongsheng, this month May Day, their house also started construction, also on the beach side, everyone now feels that piece of feng shui is good, conducive to getting rich.
"You guys these days caught squid earned how much money? Should be not little, and your family also two boats catching cargo, this earning two-three times not only, really got rich..."
"Two boats ah, really deserve you to get rich... these days earned crazy, right?"
"Your second half of life can enjoy blessing, three sons more and more promising powerful..."
Ye Fu heard everyone's flattery, smile mouth all couldn't close, hurriedly explained, "No no... we all separated, each family passes each family's, each family earns each family's, this how is earn two-three times, you guys don't say so exaggerated, we separated, now is four families..."
"Separated, you guys also are one family, same also two boats, family has two boats earn money how fast..."
Ye Yaodong corner of mouth twitched, these people all only see you earn money, don't see you spend money, also don't see you already separated, earned all counted to his father's head, treated them still as when didn't separate.
"You guys say too exaggerated, this mullet fish don't look at quantity many, but cheap ah, just sell a few tens of yuan, can't compare with squid, everyone previous period also didn't catch less, don't say my family earned, everyone all earned."
"Wait until everyone goes to sea at night also can catch so many, maybe than we catch more."
Ye Yaopeng also smiled and echoed, "Right right right, these days weather good, everyone can earn a bit more."
"To our weighing, everyone let let..."
After weighing cargo Ye Yaodong wiped a sweat, first squeezed out from the crowd, his father was still blowing cow chatting inside, he didn't care about him, put on hat, pushed flatbed cart and walked first.
Not yet arrived at home door, far away he saw his old mother digging pit in front of house, beside squatted a few boys watching excitement, girls were kicking shuttlecock on the side, he hurriedly pushed cart and walked a few steps over.
"This dead fatty efficiency quite high, yesterday night went to tell, today just sent osmanthus tree over, also have two banana trees, this saved me running to mountain to dig."
Ye Mother straightened waist and wiped sweat on forehead, also one hand supported hoe, one hand pounded lower back, "Just know how to find work for me, plant what tree? Think one out is another, that small little bit of one, have to plant several years only then can grow big."
"Ai, you care about it plant several years only then grow big, I also didn't call you to do, this I come to dig."
"Didn't call me to do... aren't you wishing I do everything inside and outside for your family." Ye Mother complained a sentence.
This time although already went down mountain, but wind blowing over is hot, waved hoe and did two times already full head sweat.
"No, just called you to come over cook a meal, wash clothes, there... that bucket of fish, you take to organize, here I come, your meal cooked?"
"Cooked, cooked, still can starve your family?"
"Fine, then you go kill fish!"
"Previous life owed yours... this life want to serve you... serve your family..." Ye Mother after handing hoe to him muttered and went to kill fish.
Result hadn't walked a few steps, she killed back again, "Ai... not right, almost forgot, you bought what banana tree, waste money, mountain big pile of banana trees, you still buy outside, you plan to plant where? A-Qing said you guys plan to plant in front and behind house."
"Ang? Right ah, isn't this no time to go to mountain to dig, mentioned a mouth, didn't expect fatty just bought for me, saved trouble."
"Save trouble your head! Banana is can plant beside house? Banana tree gathers yin, affects feng shui, this all don't know? This can only plant to mountain, don't plant beside house, will attract bad things."
"Then affects feng shui? I only saw little uncle back door also planted a few?"
He only knew front and behind house can't plant mulberry, really didn't know also can't plant banana, this plant a tree also has so many knowledge.
"He that planted on soil slope, far from house a bit, he himself also don't care, you this can't, wait a while remember to take to mountain to plant, don't plant beside house, will attract bad things."
"Then fine."
Still have to take to mountain to plant, sigh... flatly found work for himself.
"You guys give me squat beside, otherwise I one hoe down is a head as flower fertilizer."
Squatting there big and small a few children, all unanimously shrank neck, then heels hurriedly moved back.
Ye Chengyang when moving accidentally slipped, directly sat on ground, but again reacted quickly supported body hands and feet used to crawl back, afraid of late one step then given to his father as flower fertilizer.
He didn't know flower fertilizer what meaning, but looking at others so afraid, he also afraid.
Ye Yaodong powerlessly one by one waved hoe, tired~
"Dad, use some strength..."
"Standing talking don't ache waist right, you guys come? Old man all tired to death, just you guys cool, all day eat play, play eat, still can sit in classroom go to school, what work all don't need to do."
"Third Uncle, you this words not right, that day day sitting there also uncomfortable, butt all want to sit ache." Ye Chenghu propped chin said.
"In blessing don't know blessing, then you go pier carry sandbag, this work good, can earn money, sit in classroom can't earn money, you hurry go!"
Ye Chenghu blinked eyes, guilty said: "That... that can't... I... I want to go to school..."
Ye Yaodong rolled eyes, one by one don't eat a bit bitterness don't know reading book how happy.
"My brother said he wants to be big boss, command others to carry sandbag, don't want to carry himself, he wants to watch others carry." Ye Chengyang directly sold him out, shouted.
Ye Chenghu instantly embarrassed flushed face, wanted to reach out to cover his mouth but too late, "
"My brother said he wants to be a big boss, directing others to carry sandbags, and doesn't want to carry them himself; he wants to watch others carry them." Ye Chenghe directly betrayed him and shouted it out.
Ye Chenghai's face instantly flushed with embarrassment. He wanted to reach out and cover his mouth, but it was too late, "You big mouth! If you talk nonsense again, I'll beat you!"
"Hahahaha, Ye Chenghai, are you trying to laugh me to death? Is this the ideal you came up with from carrying sandbags?"
"What's wrong with that? You're not even allowed to let me think about it? Maybe Third Uncle dreams of being a ten-thousand-yuan household all day long?"
"Pfft~ Do I only have that much ambition? Since we're talking about dreams, I definitely have to dream of being a millionaire—no, a billionaire, a multi-billionaire. A ten-thousand-yuan household is nothing." Ye Yaodong said disdainfully. He really didn't look at ten-thousand-yuan households as anything special right now.
In a few years, a ten-thousand-yuan household really won't be anything, and in ten-plus years, a millionaire won't be anything either.
"Hahaha~ Third Uncle, you're the one who's really funny~"
"Hmph, since we're dreaming, of course we have to dream beautifully. Who's like you, with so little ambition? Even in your dreams, you're thinking about carrying sandbags!"
"I didn't!"
"Don't quibble! Why aren't you inside doing your homework yet? Has the swelling on Big Boss Ye's palm gone down yet?"
"Damn it! Ye Chengjiang, you big mouth, even mentioning that I was hit by the teacher!"
Ye Chengjiang stuck out his neck and protested, "It was you who were kept after school by the teacher yesterday, and when you came back, Mom scolded you, and then everyone knew. It wasn't me who said it."
"I told you to wait for me to go home together, but you snuck off..."
"Why would I wait for you? What if Mom thought I was kept by the teacher too and beat me along with you?"
As the two brothers talked, they were about to start arguing. Ye Yaodong suddenly felt his head ache a little, "You two brothers, do you want to have a fight? Go to the side; don't get in the way here."
Just then, Ye Yaopeng walked over shirtless, scaring the two brothers into silence immediately. They ran off quickly, afraid that their father had come to catch them back to the room to do homework.
The other children followed suit when they saw this.
"Dongzi, do you need help? You still have one tree left to plant; let me dig it for you."
It was really that Ye Yaopeng couldn't bear to watch him swinging the hoe listlessly in the yard, chatting away slowly. By the time he dug a hole, it would be dark.
"Ah? Plant it there, just separate it a bit from here on the side, one on the left, one on the right, so they aren't too close when they grow up."
Great, someone to help dig.
"It'll take many years for these two to grow up."
"Yeah, just plant them. Otherwise, the entrance is too bare and too exposed to the sun. Planting two trees will make it shadier and better looking later."
This is called: the predecessors plant the trees, the descendants enjoy the shade.
"Right here, right?"
After Ye Yaopeng held the hoe and measured the ground at his feet, he spat twice into his palms before swinging the hoe to work.
The hole at Ye Yaodong's feet was also almost dug. He took the osmanthus sapling, measured it in the hole, and then shouted to the group of children: "Ye Chenghai, scoop me a ladle of water."
"Oh, coming."
"I'll go, I'll go, I'll go scoop it."
"I'll go too..."
One shout, three responses. He just shouted once for them to scoop a ladle of water, and they all scrambled to go. He hadn't seen them this proactive doing anything else.
Ye Chenghai rushed to hand over the water and also crowded next to his father, watching him dig the hole, "Dad, shall we plant two trees too?"
"Plant what trees?"
"Guava! Plant guava!"
"Guava trees are too small..."
"Dad, plant a jujube tree. Jujube trees can grow very big..."
"Ask your mother in a while. You two hurry inside and do your homework."
The two children scattered in an instant, saying as they ran: "We'll do homework after eating..."
"Brats... don't want to do homework every single day..."
After Ye Yaodong finished planting the osmanthus tree and watered it, Ye Yaopeng also finished digging the hole and planted the other osmanthus tree.
Only after they finished did they call the group of children back into the house to eat. Ye Yaodong also took off his clothes, wearing only shorts, intending to eat first and shower after.
