Chapter 836: Are You Biological?

There were no waves at night, so the father and son went to sea as usual.

Having fished so many good things, the mysterious veil of the seabed had also been lifted by Ye Yaodong by a small piece. Ye Fu was even more looking forward to his diving. Although those gold bars could only be buried underground now, they were still their own.

After the two finished lunch, they continued to change boats under the name of diving to find Jiang Yao.

Brother Asheng and the eldest cousin only felt that Dongzi was really too good to them, not asking them to dive to find them, but taking risks himself.

They all expressed that they could also try diving.

Ye Yaodong directly refused. Just kidding, the diving equipment he had was something he tried to get from Lin Ji. It didn't exist in the country. If he let them see it, it would be hard to explain. It was fine to have a machine standing there, anyway, they didn't know the purpose, so no need to find trouble for himself.

Diving for several days in a row, he could catch a few small lobsters and sea cucumbers, and he was very satisfied. These valuable things, just a little bit, could offset a whole net.

Also because they had to go to sea to work and earn money at night, they only heard about the second cousin Ye Yaofan's return when they got home at night.

"He's a bit thinner, but his spirit looks quite good. There's no other change. When he got home in the afternoon, we all went to send eggs, watched him cross the fire pit, changed his clothes and burned them, and then he stood for a while and said two sentences."

"Brother Ahong wasn't locked up with him. I heard the prison is quite big, divided into several areas. Brother Afan doesn't know much either. Anyway, whatever people tell him to do, he does."

"It's just that Eldest Aunt kept pulling me, saying that Adong is successful now, we are all one family, all surnamed Ye, we must help our brothers, and she said a lot of these things."

Lin Xiuqing sighed while speaking, "Anyway, it's good that the person is back. Otherwise, without a man at home, the life of a family of old and young wouldn't be easy."

As soon as Ye Fu came back, he smoked his water pipe, making a gurgling sound. While smoking, he pricked up his ears to listen to her speak. Until she finished speaking, and he puffed out white smoke from his mouth and nose, he knocked on the long pipe and said.

"It's good that he's back. In the future, just work honestly and steadily. As long as you are willing to work, life won't be impossible to live. Take this as a lesson, and don't think about learning from others to engage in illegal and criminal things. We can't do that."

The old lady also sighed, looked to see that Ye Mu wasn't there, and then said: "Your Eldest Aunt pulled me in the afternoon and said that you gave all the work on the boat to Asheng and your eldest cousin. She thought that Brother Afan just came back and it's not easy to find work, so how about letting him go to your small workshop to help move things..."

"Work for a few days first. After you finish building over there, he'll find work again. It's a buffer, and he can talk to people in the village to ease things up. In the afternoon, someone went directly to their house to scold him, asking him to pay money and so on, sigh..."

"Your Eldest Aunt said that if he goes to work at your place, the villagers will sell your face..."

Ye Yaodong found it funny, "Where did I get face? Just joking, right? I fish every day. Does Eldest Aunt think I'm some big boss? And the villagers will sell my face... Why don't I know I have such a big face?"

"How can you not have face? Your face is bigger than anyone's now. In the village, everyone says you earned a lot of money. In the whole village, no one has more boats than you. Everyone is praising you every day. Who has your ability..."

Ye Yaodong was overjoyed by the old lady's praise.

"Then let him go work. One more person isn't much, and one less isn't little."

His small workshop construction site was almost becoming a refugee concentration camp. Fortunately, Haozi had also been working for a few days, and it looked decent without any trouble.

Hard labor, everyone was burying their heads in hard work, and generally, there wouldn't be any situation, so he felt relieved to receive one after another.

Hearing him agree, the old lady also felt relieved, "He's also going there to work honestly. If he doesn't work honestly and is lazy, I'll go scold him..."

"Mm."

"Don't tell your mother first..."

If his mother heard it, she would have to scold a few sentences again.

Bias is bias, but the back of the hand is also meat. Going to the workshop to build walls and work wouldn't affect Dongzi anything.

Lin Xiuqing smiled and took over the conversation, "Then I'll go for a trip later and tell Second Cousin's wife."

"Rice! Rice!"

Ye Xiaoxi didn't know when she had climbed onto the stool alone, sitting there and knocking on the table, with a puffed-up face holding a spoon and knocking there.

The adults were busy talking about things and didn't pay attention to the child for a moment. They all laughed at her shouting.

Seeing everyone laughing there, Ye Xiaoxi was even angrier, protesting milkily and fiercely, "Rice! Eat rice!"

Ye Yaodong was so charmed by her cute appearance that he couldn't help himself. He walked over, sat down beside her, and stroked her head. "Alright, alright, you're hungry, right? We're eating soon, don't be angry anymore."

"Hmph~" Ye Xiaoxi had a puffed-up face.

"Where are your brothers?"

"Catching fish."

"Ran to the beach? I'll help you pull them back."

She instantly climbed down the stool nimbly and followed behind. Lin Xiuqing, however, picked her up, "You don't go. Just call your brothers back and we'll eat. What are you going for? You'll get dirty all over again."

"Go... go... Dad..."

She even called him Dad. Ye Yaodong had no choice but to turn back and hold her, "Forget it, I'll take her. Just don't let her get on the ground."

"By the way, call your mother. It doesn't matter if you make fish sauce later, eat first..."

"Such a big person, she'll come back herself, no need to wait for her."

Ye Yaodong turned and went out to the courtyard, and started shouting: "Ye Chenghu, Ye Chengyang, roll back to eat."

"Brother~ Rice~"

Ye Xiaoxi also learned to shout at the top of her lungs, but when she shouted forward with force, she used a bit too much force and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Ye Yaodong held her steady.

"Behave yourself."

Ye Xiaoxi turned her head, pouted, stretched out her little hand and patted his forehead, "Behave! Listen!"

Then she turned her head and continued to shout towards the beach, "Brother~"

Ye Yaodong smiled and kissed her cheek, and continued to shout forward at those little monkeys, but found them huddled together, not knowing what they were doing.

"Ye Chenghu, Ye Chengyang, hurry up and roll back to eat."

"Roll back~"

"Coming, coming~"

The children playing on the beach all ran back hurriedly.

And as soon as Ye Chenghu ran to the front, he said angrily: "Dad, am I still your son?"

"No, you were picked up."

"Hahahaha~"

"You were picked up from the latrine~"

Other children followed and mocked him.

Ye Chenghu was even angrier.

Ye Yaodong smiled and touched his head, "What's wrong?"

"Brother Ahai said you promised to buy him a soccer ball. Why don't I have one? Is he the one you gave birth to!"

"Nonsense!"

"If I were born to Third Uncle, that would be great~" Ye Chenghai couldn't help but look at Ye Yaodong, "Third Uncle, when are you going to the city? When can you buy a soccer ball? Have been waiting for many days?"

"Gone. Told you not to tell them, not to shout blindly. Alright, now everyone knows, so there's none."

"It wasn't me who said it, it was him!" Ye Chenghai pointed at Ye Chenghe, "I beat him up."

Ye Chenghe interjected: "Eldest brother talked in his sleep at night, saying you were going to buy him a soccer ball, and then kicked me off the bed in the middle of the night, treating me like a ball."

No wonder both of them were covered in sand and dirt. It turned out they had already had a fight on the beach. The group of children huddled there just now was watching the two brothers fight.

"Dad! I want a soccer ball too!" Ye Chenghu was puffed up.

"If you can get me two 100s on your exams, I'll take you to the city and let you pick it yourself. Any ball will do."

Ye Chenghu's eyes were shining.

Others' eyes were also shining, but they weren't their own father, so they didn't dare to ask.

"Brother Ahai didn't get a 100, and you promised him."

"That's because he helped go to sea to work and pick squid. I rewarded him. Let's go, go home to eat. Anyway, you'll have your final exams in a few days. If you get a 100, I'll take you to the city to buy one."

After getting the promise, Ye Chenghu was satisfied, but, "Am I really picked up?"

"Are you stupid?" Ye Yaodong patted the back of his head, "Can I help others raise a son? Hurry up and roll home to eat."

Ye Chenghai leaned over with a thick face, "Then Third Uncle, can you take me with you when you go?"

"No, you weren't born to my father, you can't go! Go find your father, don't find my father."

Ye Chenghu was the first to protest, and dragged Ye Yaodong's hand into the courtyard, and directly closed the courtyard gate, not letting them in.

Not long after, before they even entered the house, sounds of beating and scolding came from next door.

"I must be picked up... Chenghu has everything, I have nothing..."

"Radio not bought, TV not bought, soccer ball not bought, nothing is bought for me..."

This made Ye Chenghu excited, and he hurriedly lay on the corner of the wall to listen.

Lin Xiuqing asked suspiciously: "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, a small beating every three days, a big beating every five days. Skin is itchy, needs to be tightened. Ye Chenghu!"

"Here!"

"Eat!"

"Alright!"

Instantly, his dissatisfaction vanished. His father was still the best.

For the next few days, the whole family clearly felt Ye Chenghu's abnormality. It was like he had been injected with chicken blood. Every morning, he actually got up early to read aloud!!!

He even had to put his textbook on the table when eating, had to hold his textbook when watching TV, and even had to bring his textbook when pooping. Other children came to call him to play, but he wouldn't go out.

The whole family found it extremely strange.

Whether he could get a 100 or not was unknown, but this attitude was quite good and upright.

Ye Yaodong listened to Lin Xiuqing talk about his changes in the past few days like a joke, and felt very comforted in his heart.

It's just that he didn't know how many days he could keep it up.

If he could keep it up until the final exam, as long as he didn't do too poorly, he would have to satisfy the child's wish no matter what. Otherwise, having looked forward to it for half a year, only to end up with nothing, how disappointed he would be.
