Chapter 1709 Inspection
After Ye Yaodong unloaded his cargo and went back, he was thinking of telling his father about his encounter with his uncle, but his father brought it up first.
"You ran into your uncle at sea, why didn't you say anything?"
"I……"
"I only found out yesterday when he called me. He should tell me earlier in the future if there's anything."
"I……"
"We went out for drinks last night, chatted, and I bragged about you all night long..."
Ye Yaodong simply stopped talking and let his father talk to himself.
Mr. Ye, beaming with pride, rambled on about how the two had met, and how much people envied him for having several good sons.
"...I'm enjoying my life now, but your uncle is quite pitiful. He still has to keep working. I heard he signed a 10-year contract, so he has to work for another five or six years. Otherwise, we could have brought him over to work for you."
Ye Yaodong finally seized the opportunity to speak, "First of all, I met him at sea, and secondly, I only just got back now, so I have the chance to tell you. There's no question of saying it sooner or later. Also, didn't you let him see your car?"
Mr. Ye chuckled, “I originally planned to drive out, but then I thought that if I drank, it wouldn’t be good to drive back. You said that you absolutely cannot drink and drive. So I had to walk. We agreed that he would come to visit your factory today when he has some free time.”
"When are you coming over? I'm just back, I'll treat him to dinner."
"I don't know. He said it would be in the afternoon. He said he had something to do yesterday and didn't dare to drink too much. Today, I told him to stay here and drink more."
"Then I'll go take a shower and get some sleep first."
He was busy until the very end after unloading the goods, and by the time he got back it was already dawn. He was hungry and sleepy, so he needed to catch up on some sleep first.
"Then you should go and rest. Has anything else happened?"
"It's raining heavily at sea, and the waves are at force 7 or 8, would you call that?"
"It rained here a couple of nights ago, and I only realized it when I woke up the next day and saw that the ground was wet. The Awakening of Insects is coming soon, and a few more rains will help with sowing... I have to hurry up and turn over the soil and sow some seeds while there should be plenty of rain these next few days."
As if he had something of utmost importance to do, Ye's father spoke as if he hadn't done anything of the highest order. Before he could finish his sentence, he had already hurried off to find a hoe.
Ye Yaodong also took a shower and washed his hair, ate something hot, and comfortably lay down in bed and fell asleep immediately.
He woke up in the afternoon and still hadn't seen his uncle-in-law arrive, so he decided to call Shanghai first.
I haven't made a phone call since I came back from Shanghai. I've been busy. Ten days have passed, and I don't know how the children are adjusting.
However, school hadn't let out yet, and he called Lin Xiuqing's office, just in time for a check-up!
Lin Xiuqing was free and had nothing to do. When the phone rang, she was quite happy, thinking that perhaps business had come in.
Hello~ This is...
"Checking up on you!"
"...Where did you learn that? You even know how to check up on people now?"
"Of course! I'll check up on you from time to time!"
She rolled her eyes. "What if I'm not here when I go to driving lessons?"
"There must be someone in the office too, right? You need to report to me if you answer the call."
"I've never seen you check up on me like this at home, and you even make me report. Should I call you first to ask permission before I leave?"
"I can consider it. If I'm not here, you can submit a report to the finance department."
"Ha, you're really pushing your luck. Didn't you say you were going to go to sea for a month or two?"
"I came back a few days ago, and this time I ran into my uncle, so I came back again..."
Ye Yaodong briefly told her about the recent events. Although they had only been separated for 10 days, they had experienced quite a lot, including many storms at sea.
"Oh? My uncle's fishing boat is going to dock in Shanghai? After he gets ashore, have him call me, and I'll have someone make an appointment for him and accompany him to the hospital for a full checkup, okay?"
“Sure, my dad’s free anyway. Why don’t you let him go to Shanghai with him and arrange for them all to get a full body check-up?”
Although his father lived to be 80 in his previous life, there's nothing wrong with getting a checkup. As people get older, they always have all sorts of minor ailments. Getting a checkup helps them know what's going on, so they can take their medication if needed and take precautions as necessary.
"Okay, if he comes over this afternoon, tell him to let me know when he's coming so I can make arrangements in advance."
"Okay, you should also get a physical check-up while you're at it."
"What kind of physical exam do I need? What's the point of a physical exam? Didn't I just have one a few years ago? There's nothing seriously wrong with me."
"The past few years are the past few years, and now is the present. Since we're going to take them for a check-up anyway, I'll get myself checked out too, just to put my mind at ease. If they're healthy, I'll feel at ease."
Lin Xiuqing said irritably, "Nonsense, I'm perfectly fine right now, I'm not sick or in pain, I'm only in my thirties, not in my fifties, there's nothing to get checked out, just arrange for Dad and Uncle to get checked out."
"That's hard to say. Don't all women have some kind of gynecological disease? Just get them checked out and you won't find anything wrong. It won't cost much money."
"I don't have any gynecological problems. You're a man, so the checkup won't cost much, but it's troublesome and inconvenient since I don't have any discomfort..."
"Since we're already there, let's check it out while we're at it, otherwise I won't feel at ease."
Lin Xiuqing's lips curled up. "What's there to worry about? Well, since I'm going with Dad and the others anyway, I might as well check it out myself."
"Ah."
"I've checked. When are you coming over next time? You can get checked out while you're at it. Your schedule is so messed up, and you're always smoking and drinking."
Ye Yaodong felt he was in great shape. "I'm young and strong, what could possibly happen? Doing it three times a night wouldn't be a problem."
"I'm trying to talk to you about serious matters, but you can't even be serious."
"Are the two children able to adjust to the new school?"
"They're alright. They're always jumping around, I don't see why they're unhappy. They even have to take several big dogs with them to school. They ride their bikes and the dogs run behind them, it scares everyone who sees it, they stay far away, no one would dare to bully them. Those dogs come back dirty every day, it's a good thing they have bodyguards, otherwise I'm worried that if I take them out, they won't come back."
"That's right, we still need to call bodyguards to protect the dog."
His dogs are fat and strong, with shiny, oily fur. They'd be perfect for hot pot, but if you're not careful, someone could easily lasso their necks and land them on a suspension bridge.
However, those are large, ferocious wolfhounds, not so easy to trap.
"Tell them to keep an eye on the dog and remember to bring it back."
"They also need to keep an eye on the dogs to prevent them from biting anyone. They should put a leash around the dog's neck to prevent it from biting people and also to prevent it from running away."
"Okay, I'll go out later and see if there's anyone selling dog leashes."
"Hmm, I'll check later to see if I'm free after school. If I am, I'll make another call to hear what the younger ones have to say."
"Okay, if you don't have time, call tomorrow morning."
