Chapter 784: The boat is settled

~11 min read 2,103 words

After Ye Yaodong finished his shower, he only wore a pair of shorts. He hung the clothes Lin Xiuqing had prepared for him on the chair and sat down to eat noodles shirtless.

Eating brings heat to the body, so there was no need to wear clothes. Even if he wore them, he would be hot again later. Although it was still drizzling outside, the temperature was still a bit high, and there was a stuffy, dry heat.

He slurped it down in big mouthfuls, occasionally stopping to bite into two mantis shrimp, but finding the shells on the edges too sharp and cutting his mouth, it was too much trouble, so he stopped eating after two bites and threw them aside to feed the dogs later. The red paste inside was actually quite full.

It was better to add the dried shrimp and dried mussels he had dried to it, which made it fresh and convenient to eat without peeling shells.

Those with shells were only suitable for drinking, as snacks, when chatting with friends, peeling shells slowly.

Just as he was slurping, a small hand kept patting his lower back.

"Ah... ah... Pa... Pa..."

Ye Yaodong bit off the noodles, turned his head to look, and it was Ye Xiaoxi again, "What are you doing?"

"Ah~ ah~"

She called twice, smacked her lips twice, and then immediately started calling again.

Ye Yaodong was extremely helpless and amused. He quickly clamped half a piece of shrimp meat, and seeing her open her mouth wide to catch it, she chewed it and didn't leave.

After swallowing what was in her mouth, she started calling "ah ah" again.

He had no choice but to continue feeding her.

The old lady was probably listening to the radio outside, so she didn't care when she saw her enter the room.

And Lin Xiuqing went to the back door to wash his dirty clothes after cooking the noodles, and no one took her away.

After repeated feeding several times, she just stood there waiting to eat and didn't leave. Ye Yaodong had no choice but to smile and lift her up, placing her on his lap.

"Hungry, right? Did you eat any snacks at noon?"

"Ah... ah..."

She ignored him, only calling "ah ah" in her mouth, and stretched her head to look into the bowl. But the table was too high, and she was too short, so she couldn't see or reach it. She could only stand up by holding the table and step on Ye Yaodong's thigh.

Now she saw the noodles in the bowl, and then her whole head was about to fall into the bowl...

Ye Yaodong was so afraid that she would step on his manhood, so he covered it with one hand and quickly hugged her with the other, leaning backward.

"Don't be in a hurry, this bowl is bigger than your head, I'll feed you."

"Ah... ah..."

"Tsk tsk tsk, look at your strong arms, looks like you're going to be invincible among your peers. Come, come... eat more, grow strength."

"Eat full, grow tall, and whoever hits you in the future, you hit them back. If someone comes to the door, just find your father..."

"It's okay... eat more... can't be bullied..."

The father and daughter were harmonious, one feeding and one eating, one talking and one listening.

Ye Yaodong's large bowl of noodles actually didn't have much left at the bottom. Feeding her one small bite after another, he fed everything at the bottom to Ye Xiaoxi.

No wonder this girl grew so strong, fleshy, and could eat quite a bit. It wasn't much for an adult, but for a child, it was a small half bowl, and she ate it all clean.

And after eating, she still wanted to drink the soup, drinking until it hit the bottom...

Ye Yaodong looked at her with full eyes of smiles. After putting down his chopsticks, he touched her round little belly, which was bulging out!

"Like this, can you still eat dinner?"

Ye Xiaoxi was full and satisfied, happily hugging his neck, and gave him a kiss. Her greasy mouth wiped on his face, and he didn't dislike it at all. Instead, he took out a handkerchief to wipe her mouth first.

Then he put her on the ground and let her go play by herself.

Only then did Ye Yaodong remember, where did Ye Chengyang go?

He didn't go to school, and there was drizzle outside. He didn't see where he died at home?

Thinking this, he walked to the back door to ask Lin Xiuqing, "Where is Yangyang?"

"Don't know where he ran off to. The older he gets, the harder it is to find him. Anyway, he'll be back at dinner time. Why are you looking for him?"

"Nothing, suddenly remembered, didn't see him when I came back, and it's still raining outside."

"Mm."

"Do you want to go to sleep? Or wait until after dinner."

"No, I want to wait for A-Guang. A-Guang hasn't come over, forget it, I'll go find him myself. He probably doesn't know I'm back."

"The umbrella is hanging on the wall behind the door, take it yourself."

"Okay."

Ye Yaodong went to look behind the door, but there wasn't a single umbrella. He wondered if Lin Xiuqing forgot where she put it? But after searching everywhere, he couldn't find it. He clearly bought two back a while ago.

He had no choice but to go to the back door to ask again.

"Didn't see the umbrella, where did you put it?"

"How could you not see it?"

Lin Xiuqing was puzzled, wiped her wet hands, went into the room, and said as she walked: "There's still one. In the afternoon, Mother helped us prop up the nylon bags, and then it rained. I asked her to take one to work. Shouldn't there still be one hanging on the wall?"

"No, not even one."

She closed the door and looked at the wall behind the door. Indeed, there was nothing, only the two nails she had hammered on the wall.

"Oh my, then where did it go? Two umbrellas, I clearly hung them behind the door. When I took one for Mother in the afternoon, there was still one."

"Then who could have taken it?"

"Who could come to our house and take an umbrella? Eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law aren't at home. My two sisters-in-law didn't take an umbrella when they went back in the afternoon."

After she finished speaking, she shouted to the old lady at the entrance, "Grandma, did you see who took the umbrella on the wall?"

"No, I've been sitting at the entrance, didn't see anyone take the umbrella."

"Forget it, I'll look for it later, I'll wear a straw rain cape and go to A-Guang's first."

"This rain seems a bit heavy..."

"It's okay, I'll just bring a conical hat."

Ye Yaodong planned to make it quick, go over and ask, and then come back. He could also sleep with peace of mind, saving himself from having things on his mind and not being able to sleep.

On a rainy day, there were puddles and mud everywhere, and it was drizzling. He didn't plan to ride a bicycle, just walk a few steps.

The village on a rainy day looked quiet, with very few pedestrians on the road, only some restless children playing under the eaves of their own homes.

Ye Yaodong looked as he walked and didn't see Ye Chengyang's figure. He suspected that the child had stolen the umbrella to go out and play, after all, it was rare for it to rain.

Otherwise, a good umbrella hanging at home, and no one came to steal it, how could it be lost? If there really was a thief, they wouldn't just steal one umbrella.

Moreover, ever since the family bought two umbrellas, the two boys would look at the sky from time to time and pray for rain!

Damn!

Maybe it really was the rain the two boys prayed for!

Time to beat them!

Walking through the busiest section of the village, he didn't see anyone, so he had to give up and speed up toward A-Guang's place.

This kid was actually lying comfortably on the bed, hugging his child and sleeping soundly!

Unforgivable!

Ye Yaodong stopped his younger sister from going to call A-Guang. He went to call him himself.

Entering the room, he saw that this kid was even more comfortable, lying on the pillow, sleeping soundly in a spread-eagle position, with his daughter sleeping at his feet, and even being pressed under his feet, used as a foot pad.

Damn, should have brought the camera.

Ye Huimei followed him into the room, and after seeing it, she was also speechless, quickly moving his feet away.

"Hmm? What are you doing? Ah? Dongzi is here?"

"You're so comfortable! Sleeping soundly, tsk tsk tsk~ lying down in broad daylight, the young master of a landlord's family is no more than this."

"What are you saying, isn't a rainy day just right for sleeping?" A-Guang rubbed his sleepy eyes and sat up, "Why did you come suddenly? Came back early today? Is the rain heavy outside?"

"Came over to ask if the boat is settled? Now I know, no need to ask you."

As soon as he came over, Huimei told him that A-Guang went out with Uncle Zheng early in the morning, came back once to get money, and then came back at one o'clock in the afternoon, saying it was settled and bought.

However, he wanted to know the details, so he still went into the room to call him.

"It's settled, went to negotiate with Uncle Zheng. It was also because we went in time. Just after talking for a while, someone came to ask, fortunately we snatched it first. After the person knew, they were also beating their chest and stamping their feet, saying they were a step late."

"Originally, that family also wanted us to compete, to see who had a higher price to sell to. Who knew that the person who came later wanted to bargain? Hearing that they had to increase the price to compete, they hesitated and directly said forget it, not enough capital."

"It was also because of this that they gave up and didn't raise the price, afraid that no one would take over, and then it was negotiated very smoothly."

"Just follow the amount they signed in the contract with the shipyard at the time, that's the amount. No price increase, no cheapness, follow the original order contract."

"Then everyone went to the shipyard together, explained the accident in their family to the factory director, and they understood. Anyway, we took over, so they very simply refunded the deposit. However, it was only after signing a contract with the same order as us that they refunded it."

A-Guang said as he got out of bed and put on his clothes and pants.

"How much was the deposit? Is it still the total price? When is the delivery date?"

"It's 15,000, the deposit requires half, saying it's almost finished, the delivery date is almost here, set for July 1st. He is also afraid that we will have any situation here and delay the delivery."

"I agreed, Uncle Zheng had no opinion. Anyway, paying early or late is the same, can't be much different for these two months, just paying a little more, no difference."

"It's just that the money brought wasn't enough, only gave 5,000, and there's still 2,500, agreed to send it over tomorrow."

Ye Yaodong nodded. It was smooth to buy it, and there were no twists and turns. It didn't matter if the deposit was given a little more. Anyway, it wasn't long before the delivery date.

After all, it was transferred once, the cost of the boat was high, and the factory was also worried that the buyer would have another accident and couldn't pay the money. Paying a little more money, people would also be at ease.

"Okay, it's settled, the contract is signed. Calculate the proportion, how much deposit should I and the second brother give you? You take it together tomorrow to make up for it."

"Calculated, your three shares of capital should be 4,500, half is 2,250, second brother is 750."

"250!? I'll pay 2,300, let second brother pay 700, and we'll make 3,000 together. When paying the final payment, let second brother pay 50 more!"

250 is so ugly, damn! ===== CHAPTER 785 =====
