Chapter 517: Mid-Autumn Festival Gifts

~11 min read 2,105 words

Early the next morning, after the couple sent off their eldest son who was pouting and unwilling to go to school, and sent their youngest son to Ye Fu to watch, they took the five-month-old Ye Xiaoxi and carried a shoulder pole of things to the roadside to wait for the car.

If it weren't for the fear that the old lady's legs and feet were slow and couldn't watch Ye Chengyang, it would be fine to let him follow the old lady directly.

Fortunately, Ye Yaodong prepared a pile of snacks for him to eat, and he was obedient when he had something to eat, without crying or making trouble.

Just when they went out, they met several relatives on the road, saying they wanted to go to their house to sit for a while?

The couple directly refused with a smile, saying they were going back to the maiden home, and pushed it away.

Lin Fu and Lin Mu originally thought Ye Yaodong hadn't come back, and Aqing couldn't spare her hands with the child, so they didn't plan to come over for Mid-Autumn, but didn't expect that it was almost noon, and they were notified by neighbors that the two of them were coming over with big bags and small bags.

The two were happy and hurriedly ran out, and sure enough, they saw the couple walking over from far away.

"When did A-Dong come back? We all thought you didn't come back for the festival..."

"How can I not come back for the festival, came back the night before last."

Lin Fu hurriedly said: "What does it matter if you come back for the festival if you have money to earn? Earning money is important..."

"No, just happened to be finished, so I hurriedly came back, and it just happened to catch up with Mid-Autumn." Ye Yaodong hurriedly explained.

Lin Mu also said with a smile: "What's the point of talking at the doorstep in the hot weather, so many people are watching, hurry in and drink some water, rest your feet, walked such a long way, estimated to be exhausted, look at Xiao Jiu, sweating profusely from the heat, face red, hurry in, don't stand outside and talk."

"Ah right right right, hurry in, go in and talk, the sun is big outside..." Lin Fu was reminded by Lin Mu, hurriedly came back to his senses, and then hurriedly helped carry things.

"Why bring so many things in big bags and small bags again? Didn't I say, don't bring these things when you come over in the future, bring a pile of dry goods back every time, we can't finish eating..."

"These are not dry goods, they are local specialties I brought back from Zhejiang Province, take some over for you to taste, just in time for Mid-Autumn to send festival gifts, there are several meters of fabric in that sack, you look at it yourself and make two clothes, there are also several finished clothes..."

Ye Yaodong said while walking into the house, hearing that Lin Fu and Lin Mu were both staring, feeling heartache.

"What are you doing buying so many things? It must cost a lot of money, this must be over a hundred yuan? My god..."

"Why spend money indiscriminately, how long does this have to be earned... so much money... why are you willing to spend it like this? Why doesn't Aqing manage it..."

"Hurry up and take it back, take it back later, we can't use it, this is not working on the mountain, or working in the field, what fabric and clothes to buy for us..."

Ye Yaodong was too lazy to explain, explaining to the elders in the family every time was enough, he gave Lin Xiuqing a look, letting her talk to her own father and mother.

Lin Xiuqing interrupted her father and mother's heartache words, "These are not bought with money..."

She explained the origin of the things to her father and mother again, but the two old people still felt heartache.

"Why not sell it... this can also sell for a lot of money?"

"Sold it, these are the ones left that no one wants." Ye Yaodong said straightforwardly.

Lin Xiuqing glanced at him reproachfully, how could he say that, "These few pieces are specially kept for you, most of them are sold, you don't feel heartache, didn't send anything over all year round, every time you send rice, rapeseed oil, melons, fruits and vegetables over..."

Lin Fu waved his hand, "These things produced in the field are not worth much money, anyway, they are all planted by ourselves..."

"He anyway also picked them up..."

Ye Yaodong listened to their back-and-forth conversation, feeling a bit headache, sending things back every time was like this, pushing and pulling, he still stood at the door to blow the wind, let her handle her parents herself.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stood at the door, he saw a group of children running back with bags on their backs.

"Oh? Is this school out?"

"Little Aunt's husband, Little Aunt's husband..." Lin Guangyuan's eyes lit up as soon as he saw Ye Yaodong, running faster, shouting louder.

"Little Aunt's husband..."

"School out? Why is your body so dirty?"

"Big brother just had a fight with someone when school was out, and beat someone else up." The niece behind hurriedly reported.

Lin Guangyuan glared over, "Don't talk nonsense, I fell accidentally."

Ye Yaodong listened and felt both funny and annoying, "It's just right that you are the oldest in the school now, and then you naturally became the school bully?"

Lin Guangyuan smiled awkwardly, and then hurriedly changed the subject, "Little Aunt's husband, when did you come back? My father and the others said two days ago that you definitely wouldn't be able to come back for the festival."

"Hmm, just came back."

After he finished speaking, he rummaged through his pockets, took out a blue one and a pink one, and handed two electronic watches to Lin Guangyuan and Lin Dongxue.

One is the eldest nephew, one is the eldest niece, and they are future college students, of course, one must be divided to each, the few small ones forget it.

Anyway, these two, one is from the eldest brother-in-law's house, one is from the second brother-in-law's house, which is considered fair.

The two saw the electronic watch and screamed in surprise, "Watch!"

"Is this for us?"

"Otherwise?"

"Wow! Little Aunt's husband, you are too great!" Lin Guangyuan got the determined words, and was so happy he almost jumped to the sky.

Lin Dongxue was also excited and held the pink watch tightly, "Little Aunt's husband, you are too good, actually still sent us a watch?"

The two were extremely excited, the surprise came too suddenly, feeling that fireworks had automatically started to set off in their brains.

Other children saw it and were envious, surrounding Ye Yaodong and calling Little Aunt's husband.

Ye Yaodong smiled, "You are still young, can't use it yet, talk about it later."

The smiles on the children's faces instantly collapsed, with a look of disappointment.

"However, without a watch, there are other delicious things, in the house, you can go in and take them."

Instantly, one by one, they were not disappointed anymore, running faster than rabbits, while Lin Guangyuan and Lin Dongxue still stood in front of him, holding the watch and reluctant to put it down.

"Little Aunt's husband, this watch seems very expensive..." Lin Dongxue held the watch and hesitated, wanting to return it, but reluctant, finally gritted her teeth and stuffed it into his arms.

"Why not send it to Little Aunt, or take it to return, I'm still young, can't use it."

Ye Yaodong looked at her in surprise, and looked at the watch in front of him, knowing that this eldest niece was smart, didn't expect her to be so sensible, able to be cruel and reluctant, no wonder she could be admitted to college and become the first college student in the whole village.

Lin Guangyuan saw Lin Dongxue return it, and also felt heartache, but also handed the watch he was comparing on his hand to him, "Little Aunt's husband..."

"Take it all, this is to encourage you to study well. If the final exam results are not good, I will let your father and mother take it back, not give it to you."

"Ah! I must study well! Must study until junior high graduation." Lin Guangyuan hurriedly took it back, extremely happy, and immediately put it on himself.

Lin Dongxue also nodded fiercely, "I must study hard, thank you Little Aunt's husband!"

"Thank you Little Aunt's husband!"

"Why is school out so early? It's only past ten!"

"Tomorrow is Mid-Autumn, the teacher let us have a holiday in advance."

Now having a holiday, how to have it, is entirely up to the teacher. Willful, want to have a holiday for how long, want to have a holiday when, very willful.

"Little Aunt's husband, are you staying for Mid-Autumn?"

"No, go back in the afternoon, the two cousins are still at home."

"Oh..."

Both were a bit disappointed, they were now very affectionate towards Little Aunt's husband.

The adults in the house heard the children who just ran in say that Ye Yaodong sent Lin Guangyuan and Lin Dongxue a watch each, and instantly felt heartache again, feeling that he was too able to spend money, and his hands were too loose.

Immediately wanted to go out and tell the two children to return it, but Lin Xiuqing stopped them and talked a lot, so the two old people didn't let the two return it again.

Just seeing Ye Yaodong, couldn't help but nag him, telling him to spend less money, save more money, don't send things that can be sold everywhere, etc.

Good elders are like this, will feel heartache for you, Ye Yaodong also cooperated very humbly, kept nodding and saying good good good.

No matter what he thought in his heart, he had to respond nicely in his mouth, and his attitude had to be willing to listen to advice.

Lin Fu and Lin Mu were actually happy in their hearts that their son-in-law valued them, unlike before, not necessarily going to their house once all year round.

Now even the few small ones in the family like to circle around him, Little Aunt's husband long, Little Aunt's husband short, even when they left, the few small ones were still reluctant to part.

Still kept chasing and asking when he would come next time, and asking when they could go to his place to play.

Ye Yaodong was also very happy, feeling that he was becoming more and more competent as an elder now, and more and more like it.

After comforting those children, he carried the shoulder pole and walked on the road he came, while the sun hadn't set, now there was still a car to go back.

When coming, the cargo inside made his shoulders ache, now when going back, the baskets were also heavy.

This basket was filled with a pile of dried vegetables such as dried lettuce, dried cauliflower, dried radish, shredded sweet potato, etc., the two old people killed two chickens and ducks, and by the way took two jars of wild honey, and also brought them a large bucket of rapeseed oil.

How they carried the shoulder pole over in the morning, now the two old people still filled the bamboo baskets, letting him carry them back fully.

"The heavy love given by your father and mother is really worthy of the name, everything must be stuffed for us to bring back."

"Isn't this good, afraid you have no vegetables to eat, anyway I love to eat vegetables, don't love to eat fish."

"Cut, eating too much fish is smart, no wonder you are so stupid."

"Right, actually so stupid, married to your house from far away, the fish killed every day can be more than what others kill in a lifetime."

"Humph, the seaside is good, better than your mountain ditch."

"Look down on the mountain ditch? You are still a sea ditch..."

"What sea ditch... messy..."

The couple, one holding the child, one carrying the shoulder pole, bickering all the way, talking and laughing, the sunset pulled their backs longer and longer. ===== CHAPTER 518 =====
