Chapter 1734 Daily life

Lin Xiuqing smiled and pointed at Ye Chengjiang, "Don't swear, you'll corrupt all your younger brothers and sisters."

“They’re no better; they swear even more than I do.”

"I didn't swear, Brother Jiang, you were the one who swore the most. You also smoke the most, your blanket smells of smoke, it stinks. If you get married, I definitely won't want to sleep in the same bed with you. Ah, I know, no wonder you don't get married, you must know you'll be disliked!"

The people in the car couldn't help but chuckle.

Ye Chengjiang was both annoyed and amused. "If you keep spouting nonsense like this, I'll never find a wife."

"It's okay. My dad also smells of smoke, but my mom doesn't mind. You should just find someone who doesn't mind you."

Ye Yaodong protested, "What does this have to do with me? There's no smell of smoke in my bed."

"Your blankets smelled of smoke, so Mom came and washed them for you. Then the smell was gone! Your blankets even bleed color from sleeping on them!"

Now it was Ye Yaodong's turn to lose face. "Won't the quilt fade if you wash it? Stop talking and eat some peanuts and melon seeds. Take a break with your mouth."

Lin Xiuqing smiled and quickly peeled a peanut and stuffed it into her mouth to stop her from smacking her lips.

But it wasn't long before we got off the bus and arrived at the pier.

There was no cargo on the return trip, and the deck was very empty. After they boarded the ship, they could jump and play on the deck again, but for safety reasons, they didn't let the little ones go on the deck, but instead rushed to the cabin to play.

Even when they go out, each child is accompanied by an adult to prevent accidents.

With so many people, it won't be boring staying in the cabin, especially since everyone has brought their own cards.

When we arrived at the shore, we came out of the cabin one by one, and it felt like we had seen the light of day again.

Ye Chengjiang held up his five fingers to block out the light, saying, "It feels like I've just been released from prison."

"Nonsense! How old are you? You still can't keep your mouth shut," Ye Yaohua scolded.

"Don't block the road..."

"finally reached."

Ye Chenghe shouted, "School's finally starting!"

"Ugh... I hate it!"

"Ha ha……"

"Stop fooling around, grab your things, it's time to get ready to disembark."

Ye Chengjiang then posed a probing question to them: "Have you finished your summer homework?"

"My older brother said that since we've all taken a few days off, and everyone else has been in school for several days, we definitely don't need to hand in our homework."

Ye Chenghu tried to cover her mouth but it was too late; she was too far away from him, and the boat was rocking.

"I was just saying that casually; I finished it a long time ago."

"Anyway, you said you'd finish it, so you finished it."

"Brother Jiang, the girls in my class are quite pretty. They're all sixteen or seventeen, some even eighteen. If you could marry a high school student, it would be a real status symbol, she's an educated person!"

Ye Chenghe leaned closer and put his arm around Ye Chengjiang's shoulder. "That's a great idea! Don't you own land in Shanghai? Build a house, marry a local woman, and you'll be a Shanghai resident!"

Ye Chengjiang stroked his chin. "That makes sense. College students might not dare to dream of it, but high school students can certainly do it!"

Ye Yaohua patted him on the shoulder, "What are you thinking? Do you think locals would want to date you? Hurry up and get off the boat. Later, we'll see if you can find a female worker from another factory at the factory's social event. If so, thank goodness."

"Who are you looking down on?"

Ye Chenghu said, "There are also several students from other places in our class. Their families are doing business in Shanghai."

"Get off the ship first, don't waste time, we can talk about it when we get back."

Ye Yaodong got out of the cockpit and, seeing them still whispering amongst themselves, gave them a warning.

I stayed back for about half a month, and I had quite a lot of luggage. Before I left, my family gave me chickens and ducks, as well as a bunch of pickled and dried vegetables, and so on, in big and small bags.

They said they didn't want it, but I insisted on giving it to them, saying that food outside is definitely not as good as home-cooked food.

He doesn't want to start a fire, but Aqing has to start a fire while taking care of several children in Shanghai, and Ye Huimei and Chenghe and his wife also need to start fires themselves.

If they force it on us, and they've already killed everything, then we can only take it for now and let them divide it among themselves when we get there.

As soon as Ye Chenghu and his two siblings arrived at the factory, they rushed straight to the finance office without even putting down their schoolbags. The three of them had already whispered and discussed their plans in the car.

I'm worried that if I pack them up and send them to Shanghai first thing tomorrow morning, there won't be time to settle their wages.

That was their hard-earned money after 20 days of work!

"cousin!"

"cousin!"

As soon as they rushed into the finance office, everyone immediately called out "Cousin".

"You're back. When did you get back?"

"We just got back. Has our salary been calculated? Can we collect it right away?"

"Sure, it's all been tallied up. Just sign your name, and you can collect your wages. So eager, huh? You came straight here as soon as you joined the factory?"

The three of them jumped for joy and quickly signed their names.

"Of course! If we don't come over soon, you guys will be off work soon. If my dad sends us away early tomorrow morning, we won't even have time to collect our wages."

"Anyway, it's not going to disappear."

"No way! I've worked so hard for so long, I definitely have to get my salary."

They only felt at ease after receiving their wages.

"We're leaving now, goodbye cousin."

"We're going back to the dorm. Thank you, cousin."

The three of them ran off like a gust of wind.

Seeing them rushing around, Lin Xiuqing said irritably, "Aren't you all tired? You've been on a boat and a car, and you still have so much energy. You've just gotten back and you're already running around everywhere."

"We went to collect our wages! We finally got all the money we earned!" Ye Xiaoxi happily went to look for her piggy bank.

"The money we're making comes from our own factory."

“That’s different. Only what’s in my pocket is mine.” Ye Chengyang took out the money and counted it.

Ye Chenghu asked, "Dad, are we going back to Shanghai to go to school tomorrow?"

"Yes, I'll be back first thing in the morning."

"Luckily we were prepared, so we quickly went to collect our wages."

"Why would I be greedy for your little bit of money?"

"You won't even pay our tuition; we have to pay for it ourselves."

“You’ve earned so much, of course you should pay for your own tuition. I didn’t even ask you to treat me to a meal.”

Ye Xiaoxi climbed onto his back and said, "I'll treat you! I'll treat you to dinner! We'll eat at the cafeteria, and I'll put it on your tab."

Ye Yaodong slapped her on the butt, "If you don't have money to pay the bill, I'll pawn you to the cafeteria."

"Then I won't have to go to school, and I can watch TV in the cafeteria every day, yay!"

"Dream on. Get off me now and get ready to eat. After you eat, get some rest and I'll take you away early tomorrow."

"You guys got off school by missing several days of classes."

Ye Yaodong had to take them to Shanghai the next day, and all three of them had to register at school, so he simply stayed in Shanghai for two more days before coming back to get busy.

Anyway, things have been piling up for more than half a month, so what's a couple more days?

I've been away for more than half a month, and although I get a phone call every other day to report back, there's still a huge backlog of things to do.

He was busy for a week before he finished, but there were still many things to do. For example, the application for the trade show had been approved, and the factory had to start preparing for the trade show in October. They also had to work overtime to stock up on goods.

Mr. Ye could no longer go home; he had to stay and drive for the factory. Once the trade fair ended, visitors would surely flock to the factory.

However, with his great-grandson here, he doesn't really want to go back.

He also moved from the dormitory area to the family compound to be closer to his great-grandson. Anyway, he lives alone, so he can help take care of his great-grandson.

He doesn't have much to do these days. With Ye Yaodong around, there's no need for him. So every morning he leisurely carries Ye Chenghe's son over for a stroll.

Ye Chenghe's son is 5 months old. He rolls around everywhere every day and can't lie still. Whenever he sees his father, he kicks his legs and waves his arms and legs happily.

Because Ye's father would carry him around everywhere.

Mr. Ye was also overjoyed. His great-grandson called out to him, waved his hands and kicked his feet, which melted his heart.

"Dad... my mom and my sister-in-law's phone."

"Why are you calling again? Isn't it annoying? You call every day."

Back then, it was Ye's mother who said these words, but now the two have switched places.

Ye's mother couldn't see her two great-grandsons and worried about them every day, so she had to call to ask. If it weren't for the small workshop being managed, she would have come with them to take care of her great-grandsons.

Ye Yaodong took the child and told his father to answer the phone first.

As soon as the child was in Ye Yaodong's hands, he looked at him curiously, staring at him with wide eyes.

"You weren't shy at all, and you didn't cry?"

“He’s very easy to take care of. He’ll let anyone hold him if he doesn’t see his mother, but once he sees his mother, he won’t let anyone else hold him, he only wants his mother.”

"Does he have anything to eat?"

"I don't know, I think I ate some fish and apple puree?"

"Fine, let him drool."

Ye Yaodong took the child out for a walk. Some of the workers, unaware of the situation, stared wide-eyed, wondering where he had found this illegitimate child, but dared not ask.

Within three days, the news spread throughout the factory that he had given birth to a son outside the factory…

His hometown and wife's place were not alerted, but Ye Chenghe and Ye Chengjiang came over to ask him first.

Ye Chenghe frowned and asked, "Third Uncle, I heard you had a son outside? Is it true?"

Ye Chengjiang was exasperated. "Third Uncle, are you out of your mind? You gave birth, fine, but why did you bring it to the factory? Now the whole factory knows! If Third Aunt finds out, she'll never forgive you!"

"Third Uncle, you did a good job keeping it a secret. Nobody knows that you secretly had a son. But why did you bring him here so openly? You should have kept it a secret."

"Exactly, you can just keep it outside."

"You'd better seal this up quickly, or the whole factory will know."

Ye Yaodong was comfortably sipping tea in his office with his legs crossed when he heard two people running over and chattering away, leaving him completely bewildered.

"When was my son born? He's already a teenager."

"We all know, the whole factory knows."

"How come I didn't know? Where was I born? How come I didn't know? What are they all saying?"

“Go out and listen, you’ll find out. Third Uncle, I know you have a lot of social engagements and go out to play every day, but you should take it easy. How did you end up with a child? Are you going to acknowledge him or not?”

"I only have three kids, and what do I even play?"

Seeing that they were talking seriously and didn't seem to be joking with him, Ye Yaodong stood up in bewilderment, preparing to ask the finance and human resources departments, who were known for their gossip.

When Lin Dongxue saw him, she secretly rolled her eyes and turned her head away.

"Ah, Dongxue, have you heard? I heard I gave birth to a son?"

"Don't you know whether you've given birth to a son or not?"

"I definitely didn't give birth. Your aunt had her tubal ligation done, where would I give birth?"

"Who knows, maybe someone outside gave birth to your child? But you're being too blatant, too outrageous. You even brought the baby to the factory and paraded it around for everyone to see. Are you trying to announce to the world that you have another son?"

"Nonsense, when? When am I bringing the child..."

Ye Yaodong suddenly remembered that he was holding Ye Chenghe's son.

"Holy crap... this isn't my son at all!"

He glared at Ye Chenghe, "If this were my son, you'd be finished."

"Huh?" Ye Chenghe was confused as to why he was looking at him.

"You don't even know whose son he is, yet you come running up to me and claim he's my son?"

"Isn't it?"

"I'm fucking holding your son."
