Chapter 451 Setting up the net (two chapters combined into one)(1/3)

"Bandit!" Ye Chengyang also shouted with a milky voice, which sounded a bit cute.

Ye Yaodong stretched out his hand and pinched his cheek, "This is not called a bandit, this is called a locust. When locusts cross the border, they leave nothing behind, do you understand?"

"Sister-in-law, I know, I know, they are grasshoppers. We used to bake grasshoppers and they were delicious, like shrimps."

"Let's go and catch grasshoppers..."

Sister-in-law Ye slapped Ye Chenghai on the back of the head rudely, "Catching forest trees, there is a lot of work waiting for you, and you still dare to run? Your legs will be broken. Day by day, running around all day, too

I didn’t say anything about helping with the work, but I took my brothers and sisters with me all day long without being seen. It’s as black as coal, and your legs will be cut off.”

"You are my mother..."

Ye Chenghai rubbed the back of his head and succumbed to his mother's power. He only dared to whisper in a low voice.

Sister-in-law Ye’s ears are very sharp!

With a flick of his eye, Ye Chenghai was immediately frightened and ran into the house faster than a rabbit, "I'm going to move a stool and come out to help."

Following Ye Chenghai's previous experience, no one dared to move at this moment. They could only stand and stay in place, not daring to move anywhere.

In order to make it easier to talk with people, they piled the goods at the door of Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua. They just piled them in different corners to avoid being mixed together. They were all separated into separate families. It would be fair for each family to pick their own.

Ye's father and Ye's mother's goods were all mixed in with Ye Yaodong's. Of course they sat together with him, and the old lady also brought a stool over to help.

Ye Yaodong pointed to the corner and the half bag leaning against the wall of his courtyard and said: "Half the bag there is full of scallops, which I caught alive in the sea. Don't pour those out and pick them out. I will send them to you with the fish later."

Sell ​​them first at the dock."

Father Ye quickly said: "Let's send it now. The fish has been stored overnight. There is no ice. I'm afraid it won't be fresh after being stored for a long time. It should have been sent early in the morning, but it was delayed by picking up shells."

"Wait a minute, I will collect the two nets placed in the sea to see how many scallops are inside and sell them together."

All the shells on the shore have been swept away, so it doesn’t make much sense to spread the two nets there. Moreover, the net is pulled higher towards the sea to prevent the scallops from escaping. After the typhoon, the waves outside want to catch the sea goods.

It's not easy to break in either.

Moreover, the fishing nets have to be collected and returned to others, since they are not your own, so the nets can be left until the tide recedes, and then collected again when there is no more waves.

"I'll go collect it with you. I'll pour a bag on the ground here and let them pick first."

After Father Ye poured a sack of shells onto the ground, he clapped his hands and followed Ye Yaodong pushing the cart towards the beach.

The beach was still full of people at this time, and every household had packed several bags of shells. They had to go back to push the cart or ask someone to borrow a cart to push it back. At this time, everyone was gathered together in twos and threes, talking, and waiting for their family members.

Come and pull the cart back.

They were the only ones close to the beach, so they were brought home so quickly.

As Ye Yaodong walked, he asked his father, "How much does a pound of scallops cost now?"

"I don't know. It's on the bottom of the sea. It's not easy to catch. It doesn't exist in our area of ​​the sea. It's rare. I'll have to go to the dock to ask later. I don't know where it came from. There are so many of them, and many of them are still there.

Not small."

"If there is less fishing, it means that it has been growing for a long time, so it will be bigger, right?"

"This one is amazing. In just two or three hours, the beach was completely emptied."

"If you make money, no amount of money will be enough..."

The father and son were chatting while walking, but as soon as they reached the beach, they saw a man standing next to their spread fishing net.

Ye Yaodong felt something was wrong, so he quickly walked up a few steps, only to find that the man had put the dustbin into his fishing net, and was using the fishing net to shake scallops into the dustpan.

Grass!

How dare you pluck the hair from a tiger’s head?

Ye Yaodong stepped forward, grabbed him by the back collar, and punched him in the face, causing him to fall into the water.

"Male Gobi, people are right at the doorstep, and they dare to steal my net. Are you tired of living?"

"Ah ah ah, misunderstanding, misunderstanding, I just came over to see how much the fishing net can catch..."

This was a middle-aged man of the same age as his father, unremarkable, and from their village. There was a huge age difference. Ye Yaodong didn't know who he was, but Ye's father knew him.

"Look at how many hairs and dustpans you put in my fishing net and you still ask me to look at it? Shameless old guy, you are still making excuses..." Ye Yaodong said and went up, intending to kick him twice.

The middle-aged man was soaked from head to toe by the sea water, rolling and dodging in the sea, "Don't fight, don't fight... We are all our own people, I really just want to see... Don't fight... Mr. Ye

Three...we are our own people..."

"I'm just a ghost. I don't know you." When he said he was a ghost, he wanted to beat him even more.

Seeing Ye Yaodong raise his fist again, the middle-aged man shouted to Ye's father in a panic, "Ye Lao San, Ye Lao San, we are our own people, I am Ye Lao Er's in-laws..."

Father Ye then calmly grabbed Ye Yaodong and said, "He is the father of the unmarried woman who was your second uncle's cousin, Asheng's cousin."

So complicated? Ye Yaodong went through the family relationships in his mind before he realized that he was the father of the woman just now.

Mao Yao’s own people?

Something to do with him?

They are not married yet, and even if they are married, they are not his relatives.

If we really go by his calculations, if everyone is close to him, then the whole village will be his relatives.

"What does it have to do with me? He is neither my father nor my father-in-law." Ye Yaodong grabbed the clothes on his chest and lifted him up from the water.

A short one, his arm strength has greatly increased now, and he can easily lift the little old man up.

"If you don't want to eat fists anymore, just tell me honestly how many scallops you stole from me?"

Some people on the shore noticed the conflict here, and some were curious and ran over to watch the excitement.

"What's going on?"

"It seems that Lao Wang stole Ye Laosan's scallops?"

"Oh, you deserve it. There were so many on the shore just now. Who didn't drag a few hundred kilograms back with them? Why did they steal it?"

"Who knows?"

"You're jealous, there are people like this everywhere..."

Lao Wang grabbed Ye Yaodong's arm in a panic, "No, really not. I really just came here and just took a look. I didn't steal anything..."

"Believe me, if you want to take a look, why don't you bring me over here?"

"Really not, I didn't steal anything..."

Lao Wang's children immediately gathered around, as well as many relatives and friends of the Ye family, and the scene suddenly became chaotic again.

"Everyone is on the shore, and you, an old guy, run up to my fishing net and pour the contents of my fishing net into your winnowing net. You still say you didn't steal it? Do you think I'm blind? Or do you think my father is blind?"

Being surrounded by so many people, he lost all dignity, and Lao Wang almost cried, "I really didn't steal..."

"Is it true that I didn't steal it, or was it too late?" Father Ye asked depressedly with so many people watching.

This time, Lao Wang stopped talking!

His son said instead: "If you don't have time to steal, then you didn't steal. You won't lose anything anyway. Forget it, my dad is already old, don't argue with him..."

Ye Yaodong was speechless. If a strong woman failed to do it, it wouldn't be considered a strong woman. If he kissed, looked at, or touched, it wouldn't count?

Don't worry about it? If you are poor, you can use public opinion to seize other people's fish. When you are old, you can steal other people's things?

What bullshit logic?

This is how bad people are spoiled.

"Who says I have no losses? Who knows how long he has been lingering here, and how many bushels he has taken away? All he has taken away is money. Whose money was blown away by the strong wind?"

You can just use your age to make him suffer the consequences of being dumb?

What's more, why do you think you are old when you are forty or fifty? You are not yet seventy or eighty, and you want to rely on your old age to live up to your old age?

"Then what do you think? I already said I didn't steal it, but you just said it was stolen. Where is the evidence..."

Ye Yaodong let go and took out the dustpan from the fishing net. What a surprise, it actually filled a heavy basket full of it.

What a cruel heart!

He didn't pour out the goods, but carried it to Lao Wang's family, looked for the mark, and pointed it out to them, "I know how to read. Isn't the red Wang above from your family?"

In rural areas, it is customary to mark all the things in your home to avoid getting them mixed up with others, or being borrowed and unable to get them back.

"That doesn't mean anything."

Ye Yaodong even laughed out loud because he was so quibbling, "You are all filled with shit, right? Don't tell me that all the scallops in it are yours. Your old man specially picked one out of a pile of shells."

You are carrying the scallops and put them in my net, do you plan to give them to me?"

The surrounding villagers also echoed, "Has your brain been caught in the door? Who would believe it?"

"That's right, everyone has just put all the shells into the bag, don't you have to take them back before you pick them?"

"These are obviously caught in the fishing nets. There were quite a few who escaped just now. They must have all gotten into the fishing nets."

"Just admit it when you steal someone else's things, but you still make excuses when you are caught."

Ye Yaodong showed the dustpan he was carrying to the villagers on the shore, "Look, everyone, this dustpan is full of scallops. If I had come here later, they would have been stolen. This dustpan can be sold."
