"Then not getting married makes people feel too immature, and you don't have time to take care of it. If you give out the money, it will go to someone else. I don't know if it is reliable..."

"So I didn't agree. I just said that I have to think about it and discuss it with you. Then when I have free time, I have to go to him and find out if he has any regulations and understand them. We can't be confused. Let's do whatever they say.

Everyone should come down and give the money away."

"Yes, what are you doing? We all need to understand clearly, and we can't be so impulsive. You still have to understand it with him first, and then we can discuss this matter."

"Well, today I just want to give you a shout and let you know. Anyway, the Chinese New Year will be here soon, so this matter will definitely have to be discussed after the New Year."

The old lady filled a basin with hot water and brought it to him to wash his face and feet.

"You don't need to do these things. Just sit down. I have hands and feet and I can do it myself."

"It's okay, it's okay. I can't sit still without doing something. Dongzi, you're not going to go away again, are you?"

"No, at least he will bleed so much that he won't be able to travel far."

"Ah! Heavy bleeding?"

"You don't understand, don't interrupt, just recite your sutra."

"Stop bothering. Earning money is so hard and not easy. Don't let others cheat you. You have to hold on to your own money."

"I know."

Lin Xiuqing said: "What you said makes me very anxious. I feel like I have to spend a lot of money to go out."

"Okay, I will definitely think about it carefully, and I will definitely not drain my family's money. Even if I invest in something, I have to leave some room for myself, right?"

"Why don't you buy a boat? I think it's more reliable for you to buy a boat."

"I already have so many boats, and there are still 5 that I haven't got yet. If I buy them again, any one of them will cost hundreds of thousands. Don't think too much. If you have so much savings on hand, you can definitely afford it.

, and there is a steady stream of income.”

"Okay, let's wait until you discuss it. You take it easy, and we should be careful and don't spend too much money. Anyway, even if we don't do anything, we will have nothing to worry about for the rest of our lives."

"Um."

"Aqing is right..."

The old lady started chattering again.

Ye Yaodong shut up, did not answer her words, and washed his face, then changed to a basin to soak his feet.

After eating and entering the house, he became quiet.

The old lady didn't know whether it was because she had recited too many sutras, or because she was old, or because he had just come back and she hadn't seen him for more than half a year. Now that she saw him free, she had endless things to say to him.

He was eating noodles, and she kept talking.

After Lin Xiuqing cooked something for him, she went out to work again.

Ye Yaodong was woken up by Ye Xiaoxi.

He went back to his room and lay down, smelling the fragrance of the quilt, which felt comfortable and warm, and he fell asleep after a while.

The stinky girl got into the bed and thrust herself here and there, causing air leaks everywhere and waking him up.

Lin Xiuqing spoke in a low voice, "Don't mess around. Your father is sleeping, so be quiet."

"Shh, I got it! He is a big liar and a big lazy pig!"

Ye Yaodong had already woken up. He tucked the corner of the quilt again, then grabbed her into his arms, and his voice was still angry as he spoke.

"You are the pig, you are a pig, do you know that?"

"No, I am a crab. I want to be a crab. I don't want to count pigs. Zhu Bajie is so ugly. I don't want to count ducks either. I am a crab. I am a crab. Thumb thump thump. Thump thump thump thump..."

She excitedly opened the quilt, made a pair of pliers with her hands, put them by her ears, and then walked sideways back and forth on the bed.

Lin Xiuqing scolded, "I'm lying in bed. I have a cold and I need an injection."

"I'm not cold." Ye Xiaoxi responded stubbornly and continued walking sideways on the bed.

"How can she sleep if she doesn't take off the hairpins all over her head?"

"You think I don't want to? She refused to take it off, and then she just hid under the quilt."

Ye Yaodong looked at Ye Xiaoxi with a smile, "You think you are very beautiful, right?"

"Yes!"

"Send me two?"

She hesitated, "You are a boy."

"Boys can wear it too."

"That can only be two." She stretched out her left hand and hesitantly bent her fingers, making a 2 sign.

"I'll return it to you tomorrow and you can wear it for me."

"Okay, okay."

She happily rushed over and sat astride him, and Ye Yaodong screamed.

"I'm going to spit out my food."

"Dad, I will clip it for you. I will clip it beautifully for you. You are also the most beautiful in the village."

"Give me a few more. I want to be as beautiful as you. Lend me all the hair on your head. My head is bigger than yours, so just two don't look good. It looks better if you have as many as you."

"Okay, okay..."

Ye Xiaoxi was very happy. Normally she could only dress up her dolls, but now she could dress up her father. It was great.

She willingly took off the hairpins from her head one by one, and then placed them one by one on Ye Yaodong's head.

Lin Xiuqing looked at Zhi Le, "Which song are you singing?"

Ye Yaodong gave her a look to let her understand.

Ye Xiaoxi kept giggling while tying his hairpin.

When all the hairpins were transferred to Ye Yaodong's head, she clapped her hands happily, "It's so beautiful. I'll show it to my sister tomorrow."

"Don't?"

"I want to show it to my sister!"

"It's time to go to bed. Turn off the lights and lie down."

"You are not allowed to take it down..."

"knew."

After turning off the lights, Ye Yaodong wanted to take off the hairpins all over his head, but Ye Xiaoxi was lying in the middle, one hand kept touching his head. He could only wait for her to fall asleep.

Lin Xiuqing also knew what he was planning, so she whispered, "You are the only one who can do it."

"You are too stupid, there is no need to force her, make her cry, just coax her and make her happy and contribute, isn't it?"

"I'll take her with you from now on. You tie her to the waistband of your pants and take her with you wherever you go."

"When I'm done, I'll take you to the city to buy some New Year's goods. You can buy whatever you want."

"You just came back. You have already bought enough things. You don't need to buy anything more. When you go to the market, just buy some food and drink for the New Year. There is nothing missing at home now."

"Is the village very lively these two days?"

He has not been in the village for the past two days. When he came back, he was busy, either receiving goods or sailing the ship, or going to the city, and did not walk around the village.

"Of course it's lively. People bring TV sets back every day, there are dozens more bicycles in the village, and there are more people getting married. It's like celebrating the New Year in advance."

"Everyone has made money."

"Yes, everyone in the village is full of joy these two days. I heard that there were more than a dozen couples who got married a year ago. Recently, more people from nearby villages have come to our village. I heard that they are all here to introduce their partners.

Huimei said that the threshold of her home has been breached."

"Shall you say hello to Holly?"

"Yes, all the workers in our workshop are eyeing her."

"Don't talk about workshops, all the bachelors in the village are waiting for pie to fall from the sky."

"What you said is too unpleasant. You are still a bachelor in the whole village..."

"I'm not wrong either..."

After the couple waited for the child to fall asleep, they kept chatting.

Ye Yaodong has been back for three nights, and the two of them have not had a good conversation yet.

There is no shortage of things that should be done, and there is not much that needs to be said. They all rely on physical practice.

The first night he came back, he hurriedly ran some errands and went to bed. The second night he drank too much, scored twice, then went to the city again, and slept in the city again last night.

I just got enough sleep tonight, so I am awake and have a strong desire to chat.

Lin Xiuqing also had a lot to talk about. She hadn't had a good conversation in half a year, but she didn't know what to talk about, so she could only talk about the big and small things in the village.

"By the way, let me tell you, wasn't your friend Moazhu divorced? Later he went out with Awei to make money, and his wife returned to his house to take care of the children."
