Lin Xiuqing was asking her youngest son to work, asking him to stretch his hands forward, and she twisted a piece of wool into a long twist, twisted it in the opposite direction and put it on his arm.

And grab him by both arms, let him continue to open his arms again, and hold the yarn to the tightest stretch.

"Okay, just keep it like this, obediently help with the work, and there will be a reward later."

Ye Chengyang said happily: "Mother, is it a reward for apples?" I've seen them all. ”

Lin Xiuqing said with a smile: "Your eyes are pointed, you can see it when you put it in the basket and cover it with a cloth, obediently help with the work, and when you finish eating, I will give you apples to eat." ”

"Okay, okay, I have to share my brothers and sisters to eat!"

"You're quite generous, and you know how to share, it's better than your eldest brother being stingy to protect food."

The old lady also smiled next to her and said, "Yangyang is the most well-behaved, and he will hurt his brothers and sisters." ”

Ye Chengyang was coaxed into obedience, squinted with a happy smile, and stood there obediently as a stake.

Lin Xiuqing found one end of the thread in the ball of wool in his hand, and then put the four fingers of his left hand together, and constantly wound the wool on the four fingers.

Then slowly wrap a ball of thread into a small ball, and continue to wrap and roll.

Ye Chengyang looked at the wool in his hand, and quickly rolled it in his mother's hand, and he also cooperated with the force of the thread being pulled, turning left and right, and cooperating with the thread being rolled out, which felt a little fun.

"Mother, what are you doing making balls?"

"Knit sweaters for your brother and sister."

His eyes instantly lit up again, "Really? We're going to have new clothes again. ”

Lin Xiuqing said with a smile: "Yes, this year's family conditions are good, so I plan to knit a new sweater for one of you, wear it warmer in winter, hang two Yellow Rivers under your nose all day long, and then wipe it with your sleeves, it is dirty, and your sleeves are hard every day." ”

The old lady hurriedly said: "A few sweaters from previous years, the eldest can't wear them if they are too short, and they can continue to wear them for the second child, at most the sleeves can be folded." If the second child can't wear it, he will take the thread apart, and add some thread to weave it for the boss, so that a new one and an old one can also have two pieces to change and wash, and the more threads can also weave a vest vest for Xiao Jiu. ”

"Yes, I thought so too, so I took the time to go to the town in the afternoon to buy a few wool, planning to take advantage of the fact that the weather is just getting colder, hurry up and knit it, and I will have to wear it when it cools down next month."

"It's a pity, my eyes are not good now, otherwise I can help knit two clothes."

"It's not easy, wouldn't it be nice to take you to get reading glasses?" As soon as Ye Yaodong pushed the cart to the door, he heard their voices and hurriedly spoke.

"Dongzi is back?"

"Why did you come back so early today?" Lin Xiuqing flipped her left wrist and looked at the watch in her hand, it was only half past three, and she said, she had just arrived home for a while, and she thought she was coming back late.

"I didn't have any goods today, so I came back early, and brought back three baskets of Balang fish, which should be about 200 catties, and I will call my mother to come over and help kill them later."

"It's 200 pounds again", Lin Xiuqing ninja was about to complain again, and changed the topic, "It's still early for my mother to get off work, I'll kill it first." ”

She handed the half-rolled ball of yarn in her hand to the old lady, which was the size of her fist, "It's just that you are idle, this one will be rolled for you." ”

"Okay, I'll do this."

Ye Yaodong noticed what they were doing, no wonder he just heard the old lady say that her eyesight was not good, otherwise she could still help weave.

"When did you buy the wool, didn't you keep a lot of cloth at home?"

"Cloth can only be used to make autumn clothes and pants or to be worn outside, and you still have to knit two sweaters to keep warm."

"Oh."

He looked at the old lady again, "I really have to give you a reading glasses, otherwise you won't be able to see things clearly, right?" After two days, I'll take you to town to match a pair. ”

"No, no, I can see it, who says I can't see it? I'm not blind, don't you think I'm usually invisible? ”

"Who just said that your eyesight is bad? When you are older, presbyopia is normal, and you can wear a pair of glasses for up to two or three yuan, so you don't have to worry about spending money. ”

"Two or three?" The old lady hesitated, "Then I have, then... Then deserve a ......."

Ye Yaodong shook his head amusedly, could he still let her dig out the coffin?

However, you can take her for another photo by the way.

"If you can't get out of the sea when the wind blows, I'll take you there, so that you can do more work and help knit two sweaters."

"Hey, yes, yes, with glasses, I can knit sweaters."

The old lady found her value again, and she was happy again, and she didn't feel sorry for the money for glasses.

Lin Xiuqing came out of the house with a kitchen knife and a cutting board, and saw that Ye Yaodong made the old lady happy again, obviously the old lady felt most sorry for him to spend money.

She smiled and complained, "I've coaxed you to work, and you're still so happy." ”

"This shows that I'm still a little useful as an old immortal. Me... If you are not afraid of work, you are afraid that you will not be able to work, and you can move and exercise if you do some work. So, don't always keep me from going to the ground, I can grow vegetables, and you can eat them. ”

"The family is busier than the other now, going to work, going to sea, reading, taking care of children, just I'm an old idler, of course I have to help do something."

"The seeds of the candied vegetables can also be sown tomorrow, and then they can be pickled at the end of the year or the beginning of spring, or they can be cooked on the third day of March......

"The sweet potatoes will be turned out in a few days, and tomorrow you will have to cut all the sweet potato vines, and it will be just ......right for your second sister-in-law to feed the pigs."

The old lady was curling the yarn and thinking about it in pieces.

Ye Yaodong removed all the three baskets of fish from the board and wiped the sweat on his forehead, "Let's cut the sweet potato vine later, you can pick a handful and fry a bowl at night." ”

"What are you eating that? The one for the pigs to eat, there is spinach in the field, and the spinach is just pulled out and fried. ”

"Then I think the sweet potato vines are quite delicious."

There will still be sales in the market in the future! Where is the pig willing to eat this.

Lin Xiuqing rolled her eyes, "There's nothing to eat, since you want to eat sweet potato vines, then I'll fry you a bowl in the evening." ”

"I'm good at feeding, and I can eat whatever the pigs eat."

Lin Xiuqing almost blurted out: Do you eat what dogs eat?

She swallowed back dryly and changed the subject: "How much did you sell for today?" ”

"42 pieces."

"Is that okay?"

As far as she knows, the villagers can only sell about forty or fifty when the trawling is good, and generally thirty or forty are the majority.

"Are you alright?" Ye Yaodong raised his eyebrows, "The trawl drags two baskets of groceries, which are probably worth five or six yuan, and I almost can't even earn back the oil money." ”

"That's when you caught a big fish, that's why you sold it for so much money?"

"It was longline fishing that caught a small wave of mackerel, so there were few empty hooks, so I received a lot of goods. Later, I encountered dolphins to drive away the fish, and I caught three nets to fill them, so I was able to sell so much. ”

"That's good."

"Well, it's okay, the main thing is that the fish I caught are not worth much, so I left three baskets of Balang fish back."

"Anyway, it's cold, if you come across worthless fish, bring it back and dry it a little more."

"Don't you always complain that you have a fishy smell on your body, and you kill the fish that others want to kill all their lives every day, and now you have to dry it a little more?"

"Spit and complain, who let marry a chicken with a chicken, marry a dog with a dog, marry a flat shoulder, and carry it away? If you marry a fisherman, you can only accept your fate and kill fish for a lifetime. ”

"That's right, you have to accept your fate to kill the fish for a lifetime, otherwise if you marry in the mountains, you still have to pick dung and farm, but it's not as easy as it is now."

Ye Yaodong squatted there to help dry, took out the gills from the position of the gills and the guts of the fish maw together, and then threw the fish to Ah Qing to cut off the head.

Ah Qing gave him an innocent look, and then took a knife and chopped the fish's head hard.

This time he felt a little too strong, so he couldn't help but look at her more, but don't think of him as a fish head chop.

"Picking up dung is not a man's job?"

"Women can do it too, don't they all advocate equality between men and women now?"

"Crooked! Hurry up and give me a bath, and I'll get angry when I hear you speak. ”

"Cut, if you can't say it, others will be annoyed and angry, a woman is a woman~"

Lin Xiuqing glared at him, gestured with the kitchen knife, Ye Yaodong hurriedly moved two steps to the side, and then stepped back and stood up.

"Miscellaneous!"

Ye Chengyang kept turning his head to look at them, and also learned from his father to shout, "Zao!" ”

The old lady stopped the yarn in her hand and poked his forehead with a smile, "Don't be good and don't learn, learn from your father, you will be scolded." ”

Ye Chengyang grinned, "My mother is miscellaneous." ”

Ye Yaodong patted his little head, "Yes, your mother is Za!" That's right. ”

The old lady smiled and patted Ye Yaodong's arm, "Go take a bath, don't be poor here, teach your son badly." ”

"Hmm."

"Dad, my mother also bought apples, which are delicious when they are red."

"Okay, I'll reward you half later."

Ye Chengyang smiled proudly, "My mother just said to reward me, and my father will reward me with half of it, then I should have one." ”

Ye Yaodong flicked his forehead, "Clever ghost." ”

"Hey~"

"Help me take off my shoes and wash my feet, and I'll reward you with half of ......"

Ye Chengyang's facial features instantly wrinkled, and he hurriedly refused, "Don't do it, it's enough......"
