Chapter 512: Gentle Words
Neither of the brothers had any objections. Anyway, they had seen what things there were, and everyone had a count in their hearts. Besides, they were all family, not outsiders, so the brothers had this bit of trust.
However, it didn't matter to the brothers whose house the things were moved to, but it might not be the same for the sisters-in-law.
The two sisters-in-law distributed it themselves, each moving half to their own house, and both smiled and said they were afraid the other wouldn't have enough space, so putting half in each house was just right. Anyway, they would have to take them out to distribute them tomorrow.
Ye Fu and Ye Mu were too lazy to care about them, anyway, they could distribute it well themselves.
Ye Yaodong also transported the miscellaneous items to the courtyard first, and only after putting them down did he move the cargo and the local specialties and clothing he had brought back.
After Ye Fu and Ye Mu stood at the doorstep and talked with them for a while, they also took their luggage and things back to the old house.
The children were a bit over-excited. Even when their father and mother called them into the house, they were reluctant, still running and jumping wildly at the doorstep.
"Hurry up and get into the house and sleep. You have to go to school tomorrow. If you can't get up, I'll beat each of your butts until they bloom tomorrow."
"Hehe, we'll definitely be able to get up."
"No, didn't the teacher say Mid-Autumn holiday?"
"That's right, Mid-Autumn holiday, so is there no school tomorrow?"
"It's not Mid-Autumn yet, and you're already thinking about the holiday? Or do you want to report false military intelligence and have a holiday early?" Ye Yaodong was moving things in the courtyard, shouting across a wall, not letting their scheme succeed.
"Not at all, the teacher said Mid-Autumn holiday."
"When is Mid-Autumn?"
Ye Dasao scolded, "You don't want to go to school every day, you just think about holidays every day. School hasn't even started for a few days, and you dare to waste the tuition I paid. I'll break your legs."
Ye Ersao hadn't seen her children for a month or two, so she was very affectionate. She didn't hear her scolding, just shouted for them to hurry into the house and sleep.
"Adong, you picked up quite a lot of fabric and clothes. We don't have much use for so many, should we take them to a stall and sell them?" Lin Xiuqing was looking through the things they had picked up in the house, somewhat reluctant to put them down.
"You decide. If they can be worn, keep them. Keep a few more, anyway, they don't cost money, wear them nicely. The fabric too, keep whatever is useful, so you don't have to go outside to buy it later. Those woolen fabrics are all good."
"Although they were soaked in seawater, wash them tomorrow and dry them, just right for making winter clothes. See if our mother wants any tomorrow, let her pick some too."
"Oh right, pick some for your father and mother too, make them two pieces of clothing and send them over. For those women's clothes, see if there are any your two sisters-in-law can wear? Just right for Mid-Autumn soon, have to go back to your maiden home to send festival gifts, take them over by the way, hey... right, have you sent Mid-Autumn gifts yet?"
Lin Xiuqing heard him taking care of even her maiden family, feeling extra warm, and said with a smile, "Not yet, I haven't been able to spare the time. Mom has been busy these few days, and she also needs me and the eldest sister-in-law to go to the old house to help feed the pigs. I originally planned to go tomorrow."
"That's just right, then we'll go the day after tomorrow, go in the morning and return in the evening, anyway, Mid-Autumn is the day after tomorrow."
"That works too."
It was a bit late, but at least they sent them, and he was accompanying her.
Coming back from such a long way, he needed time to catch his breath and rest, and tomorrow he still had to organize these goods, so he wouldn't be free, and her parents wouldn't say anything.
The two children finished eating the pork cracklings, licked their claws clean, and then came over, hugging Ye Yaodong's legs one on each side, still wanting more.
"Dad, is there any more?"
"Dad, it's really delicious, still want some."
Ye Yaodong smiled and patted the two children's heads, "Going to sleep soon, can't eat any more. Eating too much will make it hard to sleep. There will be other things for you to eat tomorrow."
"Really? What else?"
"Delicious things, bought a lot, all for you to eat. Hurry up and sleep, you can eat when you wake up."
"Dad, did you earn big money?"
"Of course, didn't you see I brought back so many things? This is what I call returning home in glory."
"Sounds glorious?" Ye Chenghu widened his eyes and looked curiously at the house full of things, "Then is this all earned by you?"
"Almost. Alright, go back to the house and sleep. You have to get up early for school tomorrow. If you don't listen, I won't give you delicious things tomorrow."
Ye Chenghu also went to sign up for school when school started a while ago. Although he was only six years old, the teacher saw he was quite clever, and the number of students in the school was small, so he was also kept.
"Don't want to, if you don't sleep, I won't sleep."
The old lady said with a smile, "They were almost asleep, but they became energetic instantly when they heard you were back and climbed up immediately. It's so lively at home now, with so many things, how could they be willing to sleep when told to?"
"If they aren't willing to sleep, then it's fine, sleep a little later."
Ye Yaodong was talking, and by the way, went to look for the silk scarf he had bought back. He took a red one with big flowers for the old lady and a light blue one with small flowers for Lin Xiuqing.
"Ah? There's also a silk scarf..." The old lady happily took it in her hand.
"This shouldn't be picked up, you bought it, right? Why did you buy a silk scarf?" Lin Xiuqing was pleasantly surprised, holding it in her hand, not expecting that he had brought a gift for her separately.
"This was bought, right?" The old lady changed from joy to heartache instantly, thinking it was also picked up.
"It must cost a lot of money to be so beautiful? I'm already at this age, why buy me a silk scarf? A cane is enough. Give this to Aqing, Aqing has a tender face, it looks good when worn. I have a face full of wrinkles, wearing this is wasting the thing."
"No, the bright red color looks good on you, makes you look young. Just right, the weather will turn cool bit by bit, and it will come in handy soon. When you walk out, everyone will definitely say you're energetic and have become young. Aqing has the blue one, that's enough. I picked for a long time, just feeling these two colors are beautiful and suitable for you two."
The old lady held it in her hand but didn't dare to touch it, afraid that her wrinkled and rough hands would snag the silk scarf.
"This is too slippery? I don't dare to touch it, it will probably be ruined if I touch it twice, give it to Aqing."
As she spoke, she directly stuffed it into Lin Xiuqing's hand.
Lin Xiuqing smiled and tied it around her neck, "It looks quite good, makes your complexion look good. I already have one, that's enough, and there's a sack of women's clothes there, I can pick a few tomorrow, I have enough."
The old lady's old face wrinkled into a ball with laughter, touching her neck constantly, but she was reluctant to take it off.
"I'm already at this age, making me wear red clothes and buying red things all day, it's a joke to people, even the cane is reddish-brown."
"This is called Chinese red, how good, looks energetic and festive, and it's not all red, there are big green flowers on it, how beautiful red and green are, do you want to wear gray all day? Take your cane and silk scarf out to show off tomorrow, I guarantee everyone will be envious to death."
The old lady smiled, revealing her toothless gums, and couldn't help but pretend to hit his calf with the cane, "Show off what? It's enough that I know it looks good. However, it's true that people are envious when I walk out..."
"Although you've earned big money, you can't spend it like this in the future. Don't buy unnecessary things. Money must be saved, save a little more, and use it on the cutting edge in the future. It's a pity to spend it like this, earning money is so hard."
"It's not a pity, money is earned to be spent. This didn't cost much money, don't feel heartache for me, earning money is to let the family live a good life."
"Yes, yes, yes, you can earn money now, and I'm enjoying the blessings along with you."
Although the old lady felt heartache for him spending money indiscriminately, she was also extremely happy in her heart, so she didn't say anything. After all, it was her grandson's intention, and he had earned quite a lot on this trip.
"Dad, do we have gifts?" Ye Chenghu raised his head and looked left and right, listening to them talk, feeling that he had been seriously ignored.
Ye Yaodong looked down, raised his eyebrows, "Isn't it enough that you have something to eat? What other gifts do you want? Won't the local specialties I bought all end up in your mouths later?"
Ye Chenghu blinked, feeling that what his father said was quite reasonable.
"Alright then."
Actually, he also bought two spinning tops, but if he gave them to them now, the two wouldn't have to sleep at night.
"Alright, just leave these things here, organize them when you wake up tomorrow. They won't disappear if you put them in your own house. Go back to the house and sleep, it's very late."
Ye Chenghu smiled and hugged his leg again, "If you don't sleep, I won't sleep!"
Ye Yaodong patted his eldest son's back of the head, smiled and scolded, "Stinky brat, hurry up and go back to the house and sleep, I'm going to turn off the lights."
"Then you all have to sleep too."
"Long-winded, hurry up and go to sleep, you have to go to school tomorrow. If you can't get up, I'll beat people, and you don't want to eat delicious things either." Lin Xiuqing also urged the children.
"Alright..."
Ye Yaodong watched them go towards his and Aqing's room, and quickly called them back, "Wrong way."
"You weren't at home, we all slept with Mom."
"I'm back, go back to your own room. How old are you, still sleeping with your Mom, don't you feel ashamed, hurry back to your own room."
Ye Chenghu pouted and muttered in a low voice, "How old are you, don't you also sleep with Mom?"
"Skin itchy? Learned to talk back?"
Ye Yaodong swept a glance over, and he immediately shut up, ran into the house in a dejected manner, took out his small quilt, and quickly dragged Ye Chengyang into their room.
The old lady also said with a smile, "You go take a bath too, go back to the house and sleep early, you've been exhausted today."
"Hmm, alright."
Ye Chenghu watched everyone go back to their own rooms, and also closed the door with peace of mind, shouting for Ye Chengyang to get on the bed and sleep.
The liveliness at home couldn't be without his participation!
As soon as Ye Yaodong arrived in the room, he started taking off his clothes and pants, and took out the 600-plus yuan he had been keeping close to his body, put it on the table for Lin Xiuqing.
"This is the account settled in the last few days, you count it tomorrow, and take out another hundred yuan to make up 800 yuan for Dad. This trip earned over 8000 yuan."
"Alright."
Lin Xiuqing suddenly hugged his waist tightly from behind, "You've worked hard."
Ye Yaodong was stunned for a moment, feeling extremely happy in his heart. He hadn't seen her be so proactive in sticking to him before. Which time wasn't him being thick-skinned and proactive?
He turned his head, held her face, and gave her a heavy kiss on her lips.
"It's good that you know I've worked hard. Remember to perform well tonight and reward me. I've been almost suffocated for these one or two months."
Lin Xiuqing smiled and patted him, "What's on your mind all day? Just got back and you're not serious, can't you talk properly, only thinking about that kind of thing."
"How could I not think about it? 50-plus days, not 5 or 6 days. If I didn't think about that kind of thing, you'd suspect what I was doing outside. I'm full of blood, upright and in my prime, my energy every day is almost nowhere to vent except for work, my hormones are almost exploding."
"What's more, don't you think about it? They all say women are like wolves at thirty, like tigers at forty, can absorb soil while sitting at fifty, can absorb mice through the wall at sixty..."
"Stop, stop, stop, oh my, where did you learn such messy words? You don't learn the good things all day, but you learn the bad things as soon as you hear them. Where is it as exaggerated as you say? Don't say this in front of the children, you'll teach them bad."
"What I'm saying is the truth, don't you miss me? When we called, you weren't like this, so reluctant to part..."
Lin Xiuqing gave him a big white eye and interrupted him, "I'm only 26, not yet at the age of being like a wolf or a tiger. Don't worry, you can have a good rest tonight."
"That won't do, a wife still needs to be satisfied, whether it's mentally, materially, or physically... mmm mmm mmm..."
Lin Xiuqing covered his stinky mouth that wasn't serious and kept chattering, "Alright, alright, don't chatter anymore, hurry up and take a bath, take a bath and sleep early, it's very late."
Ye Yaodong mischievously used the tip of his tongue to poke her palm, "In such a hurry? Then I'll go wash right away, go fast and return fast."
Lin Xiuqing felt it was wet and slippery in her palm, and immediately retracted it, wiping it on her body, "You're so disgusting, who's in a hurry, wash or not, it's up to you."
"You didn't find it disgusting when kissing, you didn't find it disgusting when eating my saliva, now you feel disgusting when I touch you, women are truly fickle."
"That's two different things."
"Cut~" After speaking, he walked towards the door of the room, "Lie down and wait for me to wash clean and come back."
Tired for nearly two months, after returning home, the tense spirit relaxed directly, and the gentle words of his family members also made him feel extremely useful. At this moment, he really felt extremely sleepy and wanted to wash clean and lie down early.
Lin Xiuqing turned her head away and ignored him. After counting the money on the table, she locked it in the drawer first, and then went directly to bed to sleep, not caring when he could finish his bath.
However, Ye Yaodong's combat bath was very fast.
She had only just lain down for a while when he came back quickly, "You finished washing so fast?"
"Finished washing, you smell it, it has the smell of soap."
After all, he had just rubbed out an elixir of Houyi yesterday, and he didn't work today, nor did he sweat much, so he wasn't dirty, just rinsing it off casually was enough.
Ye Yaodong took off his wet underwear directly, not feeling embarrassed, and in front of her, took another one from the cabinet and put it on, then turned off the light and climbed onto the bed quickly.
"You smell it... it's fragrant, right?"
"Alright, alright, sleep quickly, it's been a day of tossing and turning."
"You haven't smelled it yet, smell it quickly."
"Smell your head..."
"Then I'll smell yours, is it the smell of soap or the smell of milk..." ===== CHAPTER 513 =====
