Chapter 1174 Go to worship ancestors(1/3)

Ye Yaodong finally realized that raising a daughter was more troublesome than raising a son.

She wants everything she sees, she cries when she is scolded, and reluctant to give up when she is beaten. In the end, she can only let her go home with a smile and a full load.

Then, he couldn't bear to do anything to her. When he got home, her mother would ask him what to do with him.

"Why did you buy so much? Did you move a whole stall back?"

Ye Yaodong was also very innocent. Ye Xiaoxi pointed at this request, pointed at that request, and asked for nothing less. If he objected, he would say loudly, "You promised, you promised," and there was nothing that could harm him.

This also gave him a memory and he could not promise his children haphazardly.

I really remember it so well.

If you backhand yourself, you will screw yourself up.

And since he was still young and ignorant, he was the only one who got scolded.

Even if he is a dead Taoist friend and not a poor Taoist, he still wants to struggle to the death.

Ye Yaodong pointed at Ye Xiaoxi and said indignantly: "You scold her. Whatever she wants, it's none of my business. It's all what she wants."

Ye Xiaoxi raised her head and looked at him with confusion, then turned to see her mother glaring at her fiercely. She quickly hid in the old lady's place, and softly called out in a low voice, "Auntie..."

"I bought it as soon as I bought it... I just happened to be knitting a sweater for A Dong. It's getting cold. I need a few more clothes to change when working on the boat. Otherwise, I'll get wet all the time and I'll catch a cold when the weather gets cold."

Lin Xiuqing couldn't help but hold her forehead. From old to young, she didn't worry about anything, she only thought about what she wanted to think about.

"You don't even care how much you buy. If she wants you to buy it, will you eat shit if she asks you to?"

"I'll give it to you, but I won't eat it."

She was so angry that she slapped him hard twice, which made her speechless.

Ye Yaodong shrugged his shoulders and carried it, "Okay, buy it all, buy it all."

"You weave."

"I can't, what would I need you to do if I could?"

"Then you still buy so much."

"I told you, she wants it."

"You can't buy so much. How many kilograms do you have? There are dozens of bundles here, in various colors, weighing at least more than ten kilograms. A normal adult can knit a piece of clothing at two kilograms, but a child can weigh it.

One more kilogram, I only weigh one and a half kilograms, and you can only weigh two kilograms at most."

"Then let's knit a few more pieces. Haha, we can arrange it for the whole family. It's cold in winter, so it's just the right time for the whole family to arrange it... If you have money, you can't treat yourself badly. There are two pieces for each adult in the family. If you add children, it's almost the same. It's not much.

"It's not much at all, maybe it's not enough. My daughter calculated it just right." Ye Yaodong said flatteringly.

Lin Xiuqing was furious, "Isn't it enough? Have I finished knitting? Can you still get a new sweater every year?"

"You have to wear new clothes during the Chinese New Year. There are many people in the family, so I will start knitting from now on. Everyone will have new sweaters to wear during the Chinese New Year, right? No problem, just do it this way. Let the old and the young do it for you later.

I’ll roll all these yarns into balls for you to make it easier for you to weave.”

Ye Xiaoxi suddenly shouted: "I don't want mother, I want the sweater knitted by father."

Ye Yaodong rarely glared at her, "Shut up, I'll beat you up if I keep nagging you."

"I'm going to make you mad to death. You are so careless when buying something. Rainbow sweaters, rainbow sweaters all day long..."

After Lin Xiuqing finished speaking, she pointed at Ye Xiaoxi and said, "Come here and clean up the work yourself."

Ye Xiaoxi lingered but didn't move, looking at this and that, still hiding behind the old lady.

The old lady smiled and said, "I'll do it, I'll do it. How can she do it? I have to wait until she is older."

Ye Yaodong quickly took the opportunity to sneak out.

When he ran to the yard, he still heard Lin Xiuqing nagging, "He ran away again in the blink of an eye. When he knew he had done something wrong, he ran away first. The upper beam was not straight and the lower beam was crooked... The two little ones..."

He quickened his pace and what was said behind him could not be heard clearly.

I also felt relieved.

It wasn’t a matter of money, it seemed like I had bought too much. After weighing and loading the basket, Ye Xiaoxi grabbed a lot more, and then there were more after weighing.

It’s impossible not to do it, because after being carried around by her, some of them would become dirty when dropped on the floor, or they would be a little messy and uneven due to her little hands, so I could only recognize them by pinching my nose.

Fortunately, he was clever behind the scenes and stuck the person between his legs while paying, otherwise someone who didn't pay attention would have been harmed by her again.

I won’t take it out next time.

He raised his hand and looked at the watch on his wrist. It was only after 9 o'clock.

I got up early in the morning and went to the town to buy wool. It didn't take much effort to ride a bicycle back and forth. Now that I have some free time, I just happened to go to the village committee to have a look.

However, most people work from early to late, so it was too late when he went there at this time. They had already gone to work at sea and had not returned yet, so he had to wait until lunch time to follow them.

Fortunately, it is autumn now, and the recent typhoon has not passed yet. Although it has not been affected, the sun is not that strong, and it is quite cool.

While he was waiting for the afternoon, he followed the workers invited by the village committee and two people in the village who were responsible for learning to cultivate kelp, and they all rowed a small boat to visit the offshore base.

In the past few days, I didn’t dare to plant seedlings because of the typhoon. I just prepared in advance and waited for the typhoon to pass before planting seedlings. It only took two or three days for the sea to be ready.

Nowadays, there are no ready-made seedlings, so you have to take the seedlings and cultivate them by yourself first, grow them to a length of more than ten centimeters, then divide them and clip them on the rope.

It is best to clip the seedlings about 15 cm long. After dividing the seedlings into equal parts and clipping the seedlings, all you need to do is manage them.

For example, the seedling rope needs to float on the sea surface and cannot sink into the depths of the sea. Otherwise, without sunlight, the roots will rot and cannot grow.

There are no other special circumstances, and there is no need to do other tedious things. The most troublesome thing is the preliminary work.

Then we can start harvesting in April and May of next year. One acre of kelp can yield about 5,000 kilograms. In good times, the yield can be even higher.

Ye Yaodong took a look and found that in the first year of this year, there were not many tests, so the village committee took an offshore base of about ten acres for the first test.

Doing a little bit first can also reduce risks. After all, you don't expect to make money at the beginning, as long as you can successfully raise it.

He also helped with work at sea. It was two hours after he returned from the sea. He didn't have the strength to go home. He also discussed it with everyone at the village committee.

After going to the sea to take a look, he knew what he was doing and could plant seedlings immediately. After the seedlings were established, he divided them and clipped them very quickly.

In the next two days, he was idle at home, watching the sea surface was calm, and he also participated in planting seedlings.

Even his father became curious and went to take a look.

Father Ye lamented that if the breeding could be successful, the whole village would be able to gain an additional income, and they would not all have to go out to do odd jobs, or just rely on a small amount of money to make ends meet.

Everyone can participate in farming together, and they can also gain another skill to make a living, and the whole village can make money along the way.

After all, there are only a small number of people who have easy money now, and most of them are still living a difficult life, and they are still just on the line of food and clothing.

Moreover, many wealthy families who are now living a better life have benefited from Ye Yaodong.

In the past few years, he has rented out more than a dozen boats off and on, and also hired a lot of boatmen. For example, when traveling to Zhejiang Province, he hired dozens of people at every turn, and all the boats were resold.

Some women working in the workshops can also earn some money to support their families.

It also stimulated the enthusiasm of fishermen in some villages to buy boats.

Nowadays, most people would rather owe money than build a boat, hoping that like Ye Yaodong, they can gradually accumulate wealth and become rich.

After there are more ships, the amount of goods received by Ah Cai and the others at the dock also increases, and naturally they make more money.

Although there are not as many fishing boats in their village as there are in the town, they should not be underestimated. The sum of the nearby villages does not have as many boats as theirs.

When he stood in front of his house and looked at the pier, he could see the beautiful scenery. The fishing boats were parked on the pier and rippling in the wind. They used to be just a few scattered boats, but now they look much more spectacular.

"Whether it will be successful or not depends on next year. It is a bit early to say this now. If it is successful, of course the whole village will benefit."

"I hope it will work. When our village is engaged in large-scale breeding, the level of all villagers in the village will be improved, and it will become a wealthy village in eight villages. Then we will definitely be rated as a model, and that will be glorious."

"Stop talking about these things. It has nothing to do with you anyway. You don't need to do these things. You just need to help me sail the boat. I am too old to go to sea. You can still show me the workshop."

Father Ye nodded cheerfully, "That's good. Then I'll show you the workshop and sit at the door to bask in the sun."

"Go back and prepare, and tell your uncle and uncle that we will sail to the provincial capital tomorrow morning."

"What time is it?"

"Four o'clock, right? Go earlier, go earlier, arrive earlier."

"Alright."

He wanted to arrive early and talk to Lao Hai about the machine, but he didn't know if he would go back early.

It is very likely that they will miss out when they arrive tomorrow, and they will have to ask for directions along the way.

Thinking of this, he thought it would be best to go to the village committee and make a phone call first to make people wait.

"Let's tentatively decide on this time. I'll go to the village committee and make a call to ask. It's best to agree on a time to go with Lao Hai. This way we can have someone to guide us, and we don't have to waste time asking around."

"That's best, go quickly."

"I don't know if it will be too late. Maybe they will leave early."

"Let me ask first. After all, I am a junior. I have nothing to do and there is no need to go so early."

Ye Yaodong responded and went to the village committee again.

Fortunately, he called in time. Originally, they planned to go home at noon tomorrow, but now they made an appointment with him to leave together when they arrived. It would be about 2 p.m., which is not too late.
To be continued...
