Lin Xiuqing pulled Ye Xiaoxi over, ready to undress her and coax her to sleep early, but she was still bouncing around on the bed.

"Don't jump, the bed is going to collapse for you."

"I want a doll, I want a doll~"

Ye Yaodong raised his chin, "The doll is not in bed?" It's all blackened by the black paint you dragged on the ground, and I'm not willing to wash it. ”

"Little doll, want little doll?"

"Where's the little doll? Tell your mother to give you one? ”

Lin Xiuqing glared at him with disgust, "Nonsense, she just played with a few sisters next door, and Xiuxiu was making clothes for the little doll, so she also wanted the little doll when she saw it." ”

"Isn't your big one better? You can top dozens of them! ”

"Don't, just a little doll!"

After saying that, she jumped around on the bed again, "I want a little doll, a little doll~"

Lin Xiuqing stretched out her hand to grab her, but she kept hiding in the innermost part of the bed, "Hehe, I can't catch it, I can't catch it~"

"Come here, I'll buy you a little doll!"

Ye Xiaoxi obediently hurriedly ran over happily.

Lin Xiuqing also took the opportunity to take off her clothes, "You go and make her a malt cream." ”

"So troublesome, you just nurse her."

"How old are you and still eating my milk, and when the New Year turns around, she will be three years old, and in a few months she will be two years old again, and I will give her milk."

"Breast milk is good, anyway, you are bulging, and there is a lot of milk, other people's families quit early because they have no milk and no drink, why don't you give her to drink."

"Can I still give her a drink until she gets old? Whose child drank her so big? ”

"If you have it, give it to her, you can save the milk, the malt milk essence is expensive, and your milk doesn't need money."

"Then if I had milk, I could keep her drinking until she was a few years old......"

Lin Xiuqing said that she was not happy, and she had already begun to undress in action.

Malt milk essence is indeed not cheap, the two boys in the family have to eat it sooner or later, as for the old lady... I didn't eat every day and lied to them that they did, but this does cost a few dollars a month, so you can still save it, drink it until you are two years old.

When I gave birth to her, I didn't eat badly, but after giving birth for the past two years, I ate better, and I didn't drink less soup and water, so that it has been more than a year now, and the milk is still sufficient, and my chest is bulging every day, and the capital is abundant.

When I gave birth to two boys, I had little to eat, and I ran out of milk when I was a few months old.

Otherwise, how can it always be said that Ye Xiaoxi is blessed, when he was born, just in time for the improvement of the conditions at home, he has never lacked food and drink since he was born, he has what he wants, and even drinks more milk than others.

The body looks taller than the average child, and it is very strong, tall and strong, and some two-year-old children do not look as tall as her.

"Other people's families want to give their children more milk but no milk, do you still give her more food, first give her to drink until she is two years old, I heard that the Empress Dowager Cixi is still drinking human milk when she is old, that is, human milk is nutritious, although it has no taste."

Lin Xiu gave him a clean look, who knows if he is seeking benefits for himself?

"Who knows if it's true or fake, people are old, can you still ask her?"

"Why do you talk like that?"

"It's eight o'clock, you go to the workshop to check, if there's nothing to do, we'll close the door, go to bed, and quickly shrink the quilt on a cold day."

"I just went to the workshop to see it, and I have asked them to close the door and guard it, I went to see the two boys, they both climbed upstairs, and they have to sleep upstairs at night."

"Then you go and take a look, turn off the lights in the house by the way, and I'll put my daughter to sleep first."

"Got it."

Ye Yaodong first turned off the lights in the house, then closed the door, and then went to the yard to check, the dogs had not returned, and finally closed the courtyard door and entered the house, and the surroundings were already dark at this time.

The winter weather is cold, and the winter solstice is approaching, and it is almost the longest night of the year, and the village is already deserted when the sky is just dark, and every family goes to bed early after dinner, which can save some electricity bills while being warm.

The lights of the three brothers are still there, and the children of the two families next door are still running upstairs, and the sound of talking can be transmitted downstairs, and the newly built buildings are still fresh and extremely excited.

The two of his family had just been punished at night, so they were honest and didn't make any movement, but the lights upstairs were there, so it could be seen that they hadn't slept yet.

After Ye Yaodong locked the door of his house, he went upstairs first.

The texture of the wooden staircase is clear, and the ones that have just been erected still have a smell of wood, which is quite fresh.

"Mother is here, mother is here......"

"Put it away......"

As soon as Ye Yaodong stood at the door, he saw two boys hurriedly stuffing things into the quilt, and then looked at him flatteringly.

"Daddy? Aren't you asleep? What are you doing here? ”

"Who told you I was asleep?"

"We heard the sound of your bed turning over, and we thought you were asleep."

"Ahem! I didn't sleep, I can't sleep, so I get up to see if you're well-behaved, what are you doing? What is hidden in the bed? Secretive. ”

"Nothing!"

"Nothing."

The two spoke out together in denial.

Ye Yaodong was very suspicious, and he couldn't see that the two were hiding things in the bed.

"What is hidden? Take it out, or when I search it, it will be confiscated. ”

The two brothers glanced at each other, Ye Chenghu flattened his mouth, stretched out his hand into the quilt aggrievedly, and took out an iron car.

"That's it? When did you steal it from under my bed? ”

"When you're not at home."

"I'm quite bold, I'll see what else there is."

The two couldn't stop it in time, and the quilt was lifted directly.

"Ahh

"Dad, you can't confiscate it!"

The corners of Ye Yaodong's mouth twitched and looked at the toys full of quilts, cars, villain books, tin frogs, spinning tops, slingshots, chicken feather shuttlecocks and various pieces of small head paper, etc., all the toys he bought for them were here, stuffed with a full quilt, and they were not too dirty.

"You're going to sleep like this at night?"

The two nodded like pounded garlic.

"Is it okay Dad, we promise to go to bed obediently and get up on time."

"What's in these two little jars, hey, it's a lot of money?"

"This is mine!"

"This one is mine!"

The two of them carried a jar into their arms, and the coins inside clanged.

"You've saved a lot of money in your private house?"

The two looked up at him warily.

"Don't worry, I'm not your mother, I won't take it."

"You mean what you say."

"Of course", Ye Yaodong squatted down and looked at them, and said with a smile, "But when I run out of money, you have to borrow me." ”

Ye Chenghu hesitated, "Won't you ask your mother for money?" ”

"Then you have to make up reasons every day?"

"Then you'll have to wait for us to save a little more." Ye Chengyang said.

"Okay, I won't confiscate it for your sake, go to bed early, don't play with toys, sweep all those toys to the floor, don't put the quilt, otherwise you won't have to play if it's crushed at night."

"Okay." The two immediately responded cheerfully.

"I'll turn off the lights, the key is that if you can't get up tomorrow, you'll be scolded, and your toys will have to be confiscated."

"Got it."

The wind was blowing in the night, and the windows were blown by the cold wind, and the wind was loud and loud.

Ye Yaodong was also woken up by the sound of the wind outside the window, and after getting up and going out to pee, he went upstairs to see the two children uneasily, and the two of them slept with their feet crossed, both on the quilt.

He pulled the quilt over them and covered them before going downstairs back to his room to continue sleeping.

always said that his son was not important, and he disliked his son, and always hurt them and punished them, but he still loved his two children very much in his heart.

The next day I felt even colder, and the cold wind poured into my neck, and I shivered with cold.

Ye Yaodong put his hands in his cuffs, went back to the house to tie his scarf, and then went to the workshop.

The old aunts came over early in the morning to kill the fish and filter the fish sauce.

The workshop is not wind-barred in the open air, so I haven't let those aunts kill fish overnight recently, so as not to freeze people, anyway, fresh sea fish are put overnight, and the next morning is the same.

Even so, he looked at the cold cheeks and noses of those people.

On a cold day, even if the sun rises in the morning, the sunlight is still very weak, not as good as noon, the sea breeze blows directly, and it is still quite cold without shelter.

But the room was full of dried fish, just enough to put a bed for the boys in their shifts, or they could move the fish into the house and kill them.

He thought that if the fish sauce was sold well for the next two months, and the outer wall was fenced, the workers would continue to build another row of warehouses and slaughtering workshops along the edge of the wall.

Since it is to be rectified, then it will be rectified together, saving it like last year, after building the workshop, it stopped, and it didn't take long to call someone to come and build a hut for the old lady, and then a few months later, the building was built, and the workshop was built again.

I always do it little by little, which seems very fragmented and troublesome.

If you build the workshop and the warehouse together, it will be considered once and for all, and you will not need to change it for several years.

The money for the house has been apportioned anyway, and a few nights ago, one person shared about 1,000 yuan, which is not expensive, and the artificial materials on the workshop are counted again from scratch, including the bricks and sand left over from building the house here, and they are all sold to him cheaply.

"Thank you Auntie, come early in the morning to kill fish."

"Hard for what? What's so hard to make money, how many people want to find a job to do, but they can't find a job to do, what kind of hard work is it for us. ”

"Yes, if you want to make money, you have to do it, and you have to do it at home. I'm busy at home, I don't have much money, but I have money to work here with you, hehe. ”

"It's okay, now that the sun is out, it's not so cold, it's much better than killing fish at night."

The old aunts replied with a smile while killing fish.

"It's cold here, you go back to the house quickly, we'll get you covered."

"It's okay, I'll come and see."

Yesterday, Ah Cai sent 3,000 catties, and he asked him to send 5,000 catties this evening, estimating that he would have to find two more people tomorrow, otherwise he might not be able to kill them all.

After all, if you kill it, you have to pickle it, and if you pickle it, you have to dry it, and you have to have manpower.

The rows of barrels in the corner of the wall were also busy, and his mother was also watching, and as soon as a vat was filtered out, the twins were sealed and moved to the corner.

They also just came over to take over, and there were many people during the day, so they didn't need to look at the venue, they just needed to go where they needed to help.

There are already eight or nine full ones in the corner, and these filtered fish sauces have to be stored in a cool place, but fortunately, the weather is cold now, and the sun is not big.

"Dongzi, it's enough to filter it today, you can send a car to the city tomorrow, this big tank is stacked and bumpy on the road and easy to break, and you have to take some straw and plug it tomorrow."

"I think so too, I'll let Ah Qing go and collect it later."

"Well, this kind of big vat is not as convenient as a wooden barrel, there is no pad, and the road is bumpy and bumpy, and the work is in vain."

"It's time for you to go to work."

Ye Mu glanced at the electronic watch on her wrist, "It's still early, it's okay, it's very idle, your friend's rat family has almost finished arguing recently, and it's quite peaceful." ”

"Are you leaving?"

"No, it's so easy to leave, there are still two children at home, just go over it for a while, where is it so easy to find?"

"In the past two months, I thought I would leave."

The woman next to her accosted, "We just talked earlier, his wife has lived in her mother's house for less than a week, and she was sent back by her mother's family. ”

"Oh, they are all persuaded to reconcile and not to be discouraged, how many divorces have been there these years, and they don't need money again? It will be enough, one person will take a step back, and the days will go on. ”

"I heard that the mouse has some tricks in his wife's hands, and he wanted to drive people out again two days ago, but he was threatened by his wife, and then it stopped, and it was rare that he was born in peace in the past two days."

"What's the threat? Is this something unfortunate that you have done? ”

"Who knows, if you have done something bad and have a ghost in your heart, where can you hide it from the person next to you, anyway, the two of them were not good before they got married, just make do with it, it's been so many years."

"Anyway, I can't watch the excitement lately, it's almost more lively than the New Year, and your relative Asheng's family is too, and she is also singing big dramas every day, Wang Lizhen's mother comes to the door every day, and she wants to stuff her daughter to him, but it annoys their family."

……

Women have endless topics to talk about, and if they pick up a random topic, they can all croak and gossip while doing until they get off work.

The same is true of the bunch of fish that he just killed, and when he didn't say hello, they all kept their heads down and gossiped, without delaying their work at all.

Ye Yaodong was a little curious, what else could a mouse have? It was so easy to be grasped, and he was caught.

However, it's normal, it's not good to get divorced these days, and there are more widows than divorced.

It's going to be over, the days are over, anyway, don't bother him, what do you love.

He walked around, saw that the women on both sides were in good order, and then turned to the side to build the wall, and talked to the foreman about the construction period, and when the ground was leveled, it was almost the New Year.

Ye Yaodong felt that this date was similar, after building the wall and leveling the ground before the year, and then resting for the New Year, and then considering asking them to start building workshops and warehouses after the fifteenth year of the year.

After knowing this, he put his hands in his sleeves and prepared to go back, saving himself the wind outside, but when he turned his head, he saw that the cherry seedlings on the small dirt slope on the side were growing well.

After thinking about it, he went back and picked up two buckets of water to pour them over.

After moving over a few months ago, he didn't care about it and left it to a few children.

Several of them are also very diligent, and they are very attentive to the month they first planted, and they go to water every day before going to school, and they go to water as soon as they come back from school.

It was Ah Qing who told them not to water every morning and evening, so they stopped, but several saplings still died, and after they were distressed, they had to come and turn them eight hundred times a day.

It wasn't until the next month that the novelty wore off, but I still thought about watering it every three days.

It's also good, there's one thing for them to do.

Wait two or three years, and if the result is true, they should have a greater sense of accomplishment.

A few months have passed until now, and several trees have died, but fortunately, the survival rate is more than 50%, and now it looks like it is also one meter tall, and it will probably not grow rapidly until the beginning of spring next year.

Each small sapling was planted with three pieces of bamboo, which are still inserted there to help stabilize their shape, and now the cold wind is blowing, although it sways from side to side, but the small trunk is still not bent.

Ye Yaodong inserted a few loose bamboo pieces a little deeper, tied them up again, and then clapped his hands and went back with a flat pole and an empty bucket.

"Why are you so diligent all of a sudden, and you still water the cherry seedlings?"

"I just went over there and took a turn, and I saw that the soil was also dry, so I picked two buckets of water and watered it, and it looked like it was growing quite well, and I was expected to eat the cherries planted by the children in two years."

"When I bought the land at that time, I should have bought the dirt slope to ......."

"What to buy? The wasteland that no one wants, if I plant something, it will naturally be mine, so why spend money? Isn't it all like that? Aren't all the surrounding barren hills and slopes like this? Whoever planted something in the wasteland, and the planting time was long, that small piece of land was naturally his, not to mention that we didn't occupy a large area, just such a small piece, only about 100 square meters. ”

"Okay, today's vat hasn't been delivered yet?"

"No, maybe not so early, anyway, the ones sent here today and yesterday are enough, I'll transport it to the city tomorrow, and I'll pull a cart of straw back to cushion the crash ......"

"Is Toko at home?"

The couple were talking in the house when they heard shouting again.

"Someone is looking for you again."

"I'll take a look."

Generally, Ah Qing is shouted when he comes to the door to climb the relationship to find work, but it is quite rare to call him, after all, he is not often at home.

"Brother Asheng? Have you eaten a meal? ”

"Have you eaten, is the third aunt here with you?"

"You're looking for my mother, I thought you were looking for me, she was watching the fish sauce filter over there in the workshop."

Ye Yaosheng rubbed his hands a little embarrassed, and said hesitantly, "Can you help call her over?" ”

Lin Xiuqing hurriedly said, "I'll call it." ”

"What are you looking for my mother?" Ye Yaodong asked.

"Uh... This one... Hehe...... I'll ask her to help me inquire first, and tell me about a daughter-in-law......" He said embarrassedly and embarrassedly.

Ye Yaodong was surprised, "Why do you want to find a wife, why do you want my mother to find it for you?" Wouldn't it be better if you just asked your mother to help you inquire? ”

He frowned and his face was full of confusion, "My mother is so unreliable, she is foolish once or twice." The third aunt looks more reliable, and she is more familiar with the situation in the nearby villages, so I just want her to find me someone who can live, and there is no other requirement. ”

Indeed, his mother is more reliable than the two aunts.

At least his two sisters-in-law will also be able to live, and it is inevitable that there will be some friction if they live close, so think a little more, but the general direction is not bad, and they can live with peace of mind.

is not like the second aunt, who is either fooling around, or seeing the sky with his eyes.

Fortunately, he didn't have such a mother, his mother had a bad mouth at most, but she was extremely reliable and clear.

Thanks to his wife for finding him a good wife who can support him.

"It's true that my mother looks more reliable than yours, so you can ask her later."

Ye Yaosheng nodded.

Ye Yaodong had just walked around the workshop and heard about the recent farce in his house.

After Wang Lizhen's mother knew that he now had a boat on hand and had a stable income, she came to the door in the past two months, three days and two ends, asking him to take care of his old feelings and marry Wang Lizhen directly, and it happened that she had been widowed for a few months.

Where would Ye Yaosheng be willing, he is not a big wrongdoer.

I lost 200 yuan in the previous divorce, this kind of person, a fool will tie up that woman again, and she is not a fairy, so she has to hang herself on a tree?

It's good to marry his wife early and come back to stop a little, he can also go to sea to make money with peace of mind, and save himself from getting bored of going back to his wife every day.

His wife was poured into Wang Lizhen's ecstasy soup every day during this time, and her attitude was relaxed, and she could go from scolding to letting people enter the door and sit down and chat, it seemed that the situation was a little bad.

He thought it would be better for him to marry a wife and come back sooner.

Lin Xiuqing didn't know what he was doing when he came to the door, so he didn't tell Ye Mu in detail.

Mother Ye didn't know when she entered the door that she wanted to ask her to help inquire and tell him a daughter-in-law.

"Then how can I interfere in this? You are not my son, and if you want me to inquire about the introduction of the matchmaker, then your mother should come and say, otherwise I will directly tell you a daughter-in-law, without her consent and without letting her know, she will have to scold me to death. ”

"In case of a quarrel in the future, life is not good, and you have to blame me? Then didn't I do something bad with good intentions and die unjustly? You go back and discuss it with your mother first, and then come back and talk about it, or just ask your mother to inquire about it for you. ”

"It's because she's unreliable that I want to ask the third aunt to help."

"Then I don't have a position to call the shots for you, you still have to discuss it with your mother. After discussing, no problem, agreed, then I will help you inquire and find you a reliable one, and you will live a little bit. ”

"Okay, I must ask the third aunt to help inquire, the third aunt gave Dongzi the best wives they married, they can all get by, I believe in the third aunt's vision."

Ye Mu was happy with what he said.

"Of course, you have to find someone to live with when you look for a wife, whether you look good or not is secondary, and the most important thing is to live a good life. You tell your mother first, and then come back. If you really want me to find you, I will definitely find you someone who can cure your mother, see your family, and live a life. ”

Ye Yaosheng nodded again and again, this is what he wants.

It's best to be able to calm his father, this is in his heart.

"Then I'll go back and discuss with my mother first, and come back later."

"Hey, good."

Mother Ye stretched her neck to watch people walk out before she said: "It's okay to marry a wife early and come back, if you don't have money to marry, borrow a little, and slowly pay it back, only a woman in the family is like a family." It also saves you from being entangled by people who don't care about it. ”

"Didn't Wang Lizhen say last month that she was going to marry in Xishan Village?"

"People don't want her anymore, they dislike her and want to marry her son together, and she wants to help others raise their sons. Then, she heard that Ah Sheng rented Dongzi's boat to do it, and now he can make money, so she pestered Ah Sheng again, fortunately, he goes to sea every day and is not often at home, otherwise he may be relied on at some point. ”

"It's a nuisance."

"Who's to say it isn't? It's important to hurry up and marry a decent wife, his mother is really, Zhang Luo has not even had a shadow for more than half a year, and he doesn't know what to eat, which is really unreliable. ”

"Maybe you're still waiting for Sister Ah Guang?"

Lin Xiuqing hurriedly slapped him, "Don't talk nonsense." ”

"I'll just make a joke."

"Okay, I'll go to work, A-Qing will go to the workshop to watch the point, and watch them work more."

"Okay, I'll go over, Ah Dong looked at Dian Xiaojiu, Yangyang didn't know where he died again, and he ran away early in the morning."

"Let the old lady watch, I'm going to pull a cart of straw."

Ye Yaodong followed them out, and saw Ye Xiaoxi learning from the old lady, with two hands on her cuffs, and then squatting on the ground to watch Wang Ba.

"How did you bring the bastard out?"

"It was Yangyang who brought it out to bask in the sun, and then asked Xiao Jiu to watch it."

"Balls! Balls! Daddy, balls! ”

Ye Yaodong was surprised, "The king lays eggs!" Bastard! ”

"Bastard? Daddy, bastard! ”

"No, you can't say that I'm a bastard, it's strange, just a bastard can still lay eggs?"

The old lady smiled and said, "Of course you can, but there is no male, this egg can't hatch." ”

"Ouch, I knew I didn't eat another turtle in the first two years, so maybe I could hatch a few more."

"Daddy, bastard!"

Ye Xiaoxi was very happy, she watched the eggs laid in this turtle with her own eyes.

"Stinky girl, you can't talk about it together."

"Bastard, Daddy!"

The old lady was very happy, "I said why she kept squatting there so honestly, and she didn't move her buttocks, it turned out that she found out that this bastard was about to lay eggs." ”

"Bastard, Dad, take ......"

"Don't call you a bastard, call it a ball."

"Bastard!"

"Balls!"

"Bastard, take ......"

"Don't go, be careful that it bites you", Ye Yaodong hurriedly grabbed her hand, "I'll get it for you later." ”
