Chapter 1906 Return
After receiving Lin Xiuqing's letter, Ye Yaodong checked the date and thought he would take the opportunity to go back home, have a full moon celebration, and rest for a few days.
Anyway, he doesn't have much to do at sea; he's just there to act as a mascot.
If he goes back now, it will be almost exactly the time of the full moon.
He went back to celebrate the baby's full moon, and naturally, A-Guang also went back to celebrate the baby's full moon, while A-Zheng grumbled and cursed all by himself.
"You two are family, so why are you bullying me? You go home and eat and drink well, while I suffer at sea."
Ye Yaodong said irritably, "Bully you my foot! Isn't this your own boat? What's it to me?"
“It’s none of your business, but it’s A-Guang’s business.”
Ah Guang's voice came through the walkie-talkie, broken and fragmented: "If I don't come to the ship, won't you have to stay here by yourself? We agreed that you would be in charge of the helm, and Xiao Xiao and I together don't even have as many shares as you do."
Ah Zheng said sullenly, "Isn't it because I'm envious of you two going back together?"
Ah Guang: "Then I won't come back after I go back, so you don't need to be envious anymore."
"Depend on!"
"I originally came out to take a look, but after staying for more than a month, it's about time. I also need to go back and check on the condition of my fishing boat."
"No, you have to stay until at least the New Year, right? I'll let you go back home for a while, and then you can come back with Dongzi."
"That's all? I was just feeling envious and jealous."
"You two should go back as soon as possible, and come to the sea early after the wedding banquet."
Ye Yaodong gained a deeper understanding: before opening a window, one must say that the house must be demolished.
The two of them didn't need to pack anything; they could simply follow the cargo ship back.
It was already getting a bit cool in late October, and they had already added light jackets to their long-sleeved t-shirts.
It's a bit better on land than at sea, but it still gets cool after nightfall.
By the time he got ashore, it was already dark. Ye Yaodong went back to the factory, washed up briefly, and then got some sleep before making a call.
Lin Xiuqing only came to visit for two days when the child was born, and she is currently in Shanghai.
But after receiving Ye Yaodong's call, she finished what she was doing and came over immediately that afternoon.
"You came back quite quickly. I thought you might not have time to come back for the full moon celebration."
Ye Yaodong was lying on his office recliner when he heard this, so he sat up. "I came back with the fish-collecting boat the same day I received the letter. I also went to see Ajiang this morning. The daughter looks like her father. She's just in time for the full moon celebration the day after tomorrow."
Lin Xiuqing put down her bag and sat down casually. "The children can't come because of school. They've been talking about it for days, saying they'll come over on the weekend."
"Then let them come over this weekend. Did your son and daughter have fun at the Canton Fair?"
"How could they not be happy? They just went to Beijing and then to Guangzhou, and they're having so much fun that they don't want to leave. They've gotten a lot tanned. These kids are so young, yet they're running around and having so much fun. It couldn't be more enjoyable."
“Tsk, we’re working like slaves while they’re having fun, and your daughter even wrote to me asking for help.”
"What do you mean?"
“He said his wallet was empty and asked me for help.”
"Never mind her. Money is meant to be spent. These days, they don't keep all their money in piggy banks anymore. They save half and keep the other half on hand, and they still have plenty of money. Your dad and my brother are already here. Did you see them this morning?"
“I ran into him. I saw my dad strolling around the factory with his hands behind his back early this morning, talking to someone about going to Beijing.”
Lin Xiuqing chuckled, "I heard my brother talk about it the day before yesterday. He talked about it for two days on the way here by boat, and he made them all envious. They said that in a couple of years, when they've saved up some money, they'll go too when they have time."
"While I can still walk, I should walk around more. The security has improved in the last two years, and it will be even better in a few years."
"The building in Shanghai is almost finished with renovations, and I've already had people put up rental ads. I've reserved three units with good natural light, and I'm letting those three choose a floor with better renovations. The rest are just basic."
"You can figure it out."
"After you finish your baby's full moon celebration, go and take a look too."
"it is good."
“If you don’t have anything else to do, come with me to Ajiang’s place again. I’ll give him a red envelope, and I also made a gold necklace and gold bracelet for the children. We’ll send them over together.”
"Let's go then."
He had just finished his work in the morning and was thinking of taking a nap since he had nothing else to do anyway.
When they arrived, the house was full of people, all from their hometown, who had come to attend the wedding. They were quite free and would often come over to chat.
A burst of laughter came from the inner room, mixed with Ye's father's booming voice: "...That Great Wall, you have no idea how long it is! We walked from one end to the other, and after half a day, we still couldn't see the other end! Good heavens, our legs are about to give way, we've never walked such a long distance in our entire lives..."
"Father, so many people are here."
"Dongzi is here. He didn't have anything to do after lunch, so he came to see the kids."
"You've been showing off all the way from home to here."
"They were just curious, asking if it was a good idea for us to go to Beijing. So I told them about it."
"You never get tired of talking about it."
"Hehe, if they want to hear it, then I naturally have to tell them."
Ye Yaodong thought to himself that they would probably be talking until the New Year...
Lin Xiuqing looked at the little one in the swaddling clothes, who was looking around at people. She smiled and hooked the child's little hand, which the child immediately held tightly.
"The little one has grown up a lot and is even prettier than before, with fair and tender skin."
Sister-in-law Ye was overjoyed as she held the baby. "This baby changes every day, he's different every day, and he's getting prettier every day. He's also staying awake for a little longer now."
Ye Huimei and Lin Xiuqing came from Shanghai together. She went to see A Guang first, and they arrived shortly after.
"Let me see what the baby looks like? I'm happy whenever I see a girl now."
"Everyone envies your twins," said Sister-in-law Ye with a smile.
Whenever the topic of twins comes up, Yeh Hui-mei has a lot of grievances to share.
"What's there to envy? Look at the two of them every day. One is naughty, and the two of them together are not just naughty, they can make a huge fuss. It's like they're tearing the house apart every day."
"Everything has to be the same, everything has to be fought for, everything has to be grabbed, everything has to be fair. They can't even watch TV for 5 more minutes. They argue from morning till night every day, and I don't know how many fights they have every day."
"Sometimes they even team up against me, one stubbornly arguing, the other like a broken record..."
"Ugh, stop talking, it's giving me a headache again. I'm so glad I got away today so I can finally have two days of peace and quiet."
Everyone burst into laughter at her expression.
"Then if you come over, who will take care of the children at home?"
"The older ones should take care of the younger ones. They're all so big now. They can just cook something simple and they won't starve. Besides, there's instant noodles. Ignore them and give me a couple of days of peace and quiet."
“You still have a well-behaved and sensible Xiaoyu,” Lin Xiuqing said with a smile.
"Luckily, Xiaoyu is here, and she can help me keep those two in check. Otherwise, I would have kicked them out. It's so much better to have a daughter. Huixin has such a daughter, so it will be easier when she has a son later. The older sister can also take care of the younger brother."
Sister-in-law Ye nodded in agreement, "It will bloom first and then bear fruit."
Ye Chenghe said, "A few years ago, Ajiang made a big bet with us that he would have more children than my brother and I combined. We already have four children together. Huixin, keep up the good work!"
Huixin smiled helplessly: "Give me a good scolding when you get back. Do you think I'm a sow? The country only allows one or two babies."
“It’s okay, you can keep having more children. Fine him. It doesn’t matter how many children he has outside. At most, the children will need to be registered and go to school. Fine him, and that will give him the motivation to make money.”
Sister-in-law Ye nodded repeatedly, "It's good to have more children, I'll help you take care of them."
Lin Xiuqing said with a smile, "You haven't even finished your postpartum confinement yet. If you have a few more babies, you'll probably have a headache just like Huimei. You'll have to beg her not to have any more."
“How could that be? Many children bring many blessings. I wish I had more children in my family. Now that I have a grandson, I feel at ease. Last year, I was worried that Chenghu would get married and have children, and Ajiang would be left without a wife and children.”
"Hahaha……"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh, remembering how worried their second sister-in-law had been a couple of years ago.

There wasn't enough time to write the next page, so there's another one.
