Chapter 1179 Signature and Deposit

Chen Wei wanted to leave immediately.

Ye Yaodong originally didn't want to stop them. Anyway, the women nearby had heard the conversation at the door, and it would spread by tomorrow.

It's really like shooting oneself in the foot.

We want to regain our face from him. If it works, that would be the best. If not, we can say that he refused and refused to cooperate, which is why the village cannot set up a factory and our fellow villagers cannot benefit from it, so we put the blame on him.

Now, everyone knows that he can offer 50,000 yuan.

Ha ha……

However, the people who had just settled the bill at Ye Yaodong's house also followed out. Everyone heard their conversation and gathered around happily.

"Yes, there is nothing that cannot be accomplished if you have money. It is rare that Chen Wei has such a heart. With 5 yuan, he can start any factory."

"We don't have that much land in our small village. Can we start a smaller one and take it slow?"

"It turns out that I haven't decided what kind of factory to run. People are just spreading rumors. Those gossipy women are talking nonsense all day long..."

Chen Wei now felt like he had no words to explain himself.

"It's too late today, it's dark now, let's talk about it tomorrow, Dongzi and I haven't discussed it yet."

Ye Yaodong smiled and said, "That's true. It's getting dark now. Let's go to the village committee tomorrow to have a chat and see what you should do with your 5 yuan investment."

He nodded randomly and left quickly.

Mrs. Ye came over in surprise and asked, "Can he really come up with 5 yuan to set up a factory in the village? Is this just a rumor?"

Lin Xiuqing doubted, "Is it true? Why don't I believe it?"

Ye Yaodong smiled, "We'll know tomorrow morning."

"Yes, if I can go to the village committee and see him tomorrow morning, it really means that he can afford the money."

"Tsk tsk tsk... Now that he's rich, no wonder he can raise a child outside and find a mistress in the village..."

After the people around got the first-hand information, they immediately became excited.

After Ye Yaodong sent everyone away, he went back into the house.

Lin Xiuqing had just come out to check the bills in the room without having time to put them away. Fortunately, there was a calculator on top of them, so they were not scattered everywhere.

He helped to tidy it up.

Lin Xiuqing followed him in and asked, "This guy is too shameless. He wants you to steal his skills and then become his partner. He's just talking nonsense. Who cares about his 5000 yuan? We have invested 5 yuan in other people."

"Isn't this like picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons? Investing 5 yuan in someone else, and then partnering with him for 5000 yuan just to steal his skills? How can you be so shameless?"

Ye Yaodong also sneered, "Don't worry about him, who do you think he is? He wants to borrow chickens to lay eggs, and he just dug a hole for him. I guess he will run away tonight."

"You think he doesn't have fifty thousand dollars?"

"I don't know. Judging from his unhappy face just now, he probably doesn't have any. Even if he did, how could he spend all his wealth to build a factory and benefit the village? It's not like it's a sure win. We're already hurting to take 5 yuan."

"That's true. Money is not that easy to make. How long did it take us to earn 5 yuan in the beginning? He can earn 5 yuan in just one year? Anyway, I don't believe he can come up with it."

He thought so too.

"You went out to sea as usual at night?"

"Well, there's nothing important that's worthy of my changing the date, so of course I'll go as usual."

"Then I'll tell you more when you come back in a few days. I estimate that within one night, the news that he can come up with 5 yuan will spread throughout the village, and the village committee will come to his house early tomorrow morning."

Ye Yaodong smiled, "You are quite gossipy?"

No wonder he was asked if he was going out to sea as usual.

"This idea has already targeted our family, shouldn't I pay more attention to it?"

"Okay, just listen and tell me when I get back."

"it is good."

Ye Yaodong originally planned to rest for two days and then go out to sea, but after sailing with his father for an hour at night, he felt a strong wind and the waves in the open sea were a bit big.

The wind is already very cold in winter. You may only feel a little cold on land, but the wind is still bearable, just making the branches shake, about level 4 or 5.

But the feeling on the sea is completely different. As the saying goes, there are still waves three feet high even without wind.

There is no shelter on the sea, and this level of wind is enough to cause rough waves, and the fishing boats will be swayed in the waves.

The current rules and regulations are incomplete. If you want to go out to sea in windy and rainy weather, no one will stop you as long as you are not afraid of death.

But of course they were afraid of death. When they first went out to sea, the wind and waves were bearable, but when they went farther away, they felt the wind and waves were too strong.

After discussion, thinking safety first, they headed straight back home with the Harvest.

After the rules and regulations are improved, the maritime department will also have clear regulations on fishing boats going out to sea on windy days.

Once the wind force level exceeds level five, some small motor fishing boats and wooden sailing fishing boats are prohibited from going out to sea.

When encountering gales of level 6 or above, fishing boats with less than 60 horsepower are strictly prohibited from going out to sea.

When the wind force level exceeds level seven, fishing boats with less than 400 horsepower are not allowed to go out to sea.

When the wind speed exceeds level eight, all fishing boats are prohibited from going out to sea to fish!

Although they can still withstand the current wind and waves, who knows whether the wind and waves outside the sea will be even stronger.

By the time they went back and forth and returned to the dock, it was already dawn.

After everyone got ashore again, Ye Yaodong saw that the cherry tree planted by their family next to the Tianhou Temple was almost blown down by the wind.

After two years of planting, the trunks have become much thicker, but they are still tilted almost 90 degrees by strong winds, and all of the more than 20 trees are leaning in one direction.

The tripod that was used to support the structure at the beginning was long gone, but he didn't care and didn't know who took it away.

Seeing that there were boatmen all around and knowing that the available labor was not to be wasted, he quickly called on them to help find some sticks to secure the boat so that it would not be blown down by the wind.

He estimated that he would be able to eat cherries grown by his children next year.

Father Ye was actually very surprised too. He didn't expect that the plants the children at home planted for fun could actually grow into a large field.

"The fruits should be ready next year. By then, we can use broken fishing nets to surround the area to prevent people from stealing them."

"Well, there are names on the tree trunks?"

When Ye Yaodong was using a stick to fix the tree, he happened to see some pen marks on the trunk.

"Ye Chenghai's Tree? Haha, these bastards even carved their own tree with their own names?"

Father Ye also lowered his head to look for it and smiled.

"That's fine too. Mark them in advance, and whoever planted them will come and pick them when the time comes."

"Oh my god, this one was carved so early. It's from Ye Chenghu. He's not very good at studying, but he learned this quickly. Others carved on desks, but he carved on tree trunks."

Ye Yaodong seemed to have found some fun. He groped around every tree, wanting to see what these bastards had secretly carved on the trunks so he could make fun of them when he got back.

"Haha, studying for the rise of China! Damn, I am dying of laughter..."

"You're really ambitious. Whoever carved this must be a scholar." A boatman flattered him with a smile.

"Ye Chenghe, haha..."

Ye Yaodong was so happy that he would not laugh so exaggeratedly if it was someone else carving it. He didn't expect it was the silly boy Ye Chenghe.

Father Ye couldn't help but smile and shook his head, "Hurry up and finish your work and go back to catch up on some sleep. You've made a wasted trip today. Let's see if the wind will be a little lighter tomorrow."

"I'll look for more and see if there are any smart people out there..."

"What is this? Let me see... It's Ye Chenghe's tree again..."

"Chen Xiuni...haha...she even drew a heart...haha..."

"Oh my god, this is so funny..."

Father Ye asked curiously, "Who is this?"

"Ye Chenghe's girlfriend, right..." Ye Yaodong couldn't stop laughing.

"You guys do it, I'll go back and laugh at him..."

He walked towards home while smiling. There were so many people and only a few trees, so it would be quick to tie them up.

Father Ye frowned, "What little girlfriend? How old is he..."

Ye Yaodong walked towards the house with a smile on his face. He was so happy that he hadn't recovered yet and shouted as soon as he reached the door.

"Ye Chenghe...Ye Chenghe..."

"He hasn't gotten up yet. It's just past 6 o'clock. Why are you back?" Lin Xiuqing was pulling radishes in the yard and hurried out.

"The wind was too strong, so I came back. I'll wait for him to wake up."

His face was full of smiles. Fortunately, he came back early, otherwise he would have been laughed at when he went to school.

"Why did you call him as soon as you got back?"

"You don't even know what he carved on the tree trunk, haha..."

It was funny to think about it, and he repeated his discovery to Lin Xiuqing.

Lin Xiuqing also laughed, "How old is he? He is so precocious."

"12 years old, right? Almost there."

"Since the wind is strong and we're back halfway, let's have a meal and go back to catch up on some sleep. It's too early to get up at night."

"I'm not sleepy. I'm still energetic. Let's go eat first."

When Ye Yaodong passed by the old lady, he patted her on the shoulder and said, "It feels like five generations will soon live under one roof."

The old lady laughed so hard that her gums were exposed. She tapped his foot with her cane and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Chenghe is still a child."

"It seems that he should be more promising than Ah Hai. He knows how to find a good wife for himself in advance."

I had the same wife in my previous life. There’s nothing wrong with that. I just don’t know if she was also so precocious in my previous life.

He had a lot of fun in this life.

"That silly kid doesn't know whether people think highly of him or not."

Ye Yaodong laughed and didn't answer. He went to eat first. The children at home hadn't gotten up yet.

Just as he sat down and picked up his chopsticks, Ye Chenghe ran over to the next room, shouting, "Uncle San, I'm up. What do you want me for? I'm here..."

Mrs. Ye's voice was still faintly heard, "I usually call you... your third uncle... but you run faster than a rabbit..."

Ye Chenghe still had eye boogers on his eyes and his cotton-padded jacket still in his hands, but he had already run up to him.

"Uncle San, why did you call me so early in the morning? I was still dreaming when I heard you calling me. I woke up and asked my mother, and she came here immediately."

"Pick out your eye boogers first."

Ye Chenghe followed his instructions and picked the mucus from both sides of his eyes. He rubbed his eyes and asked after he had cleaned them up: "Uncle San, why did you look for me?"

How come he found a good wife when he looks so stupid?

"Laugh at you."

"what?"

“Study for the rise of China!”

Ye Chenghe was stunned for a moment.

"Ye Chenghe loves Chen Xiuni..."

Ye Chenghe's face turned red again, and then he looked around in fear as if he was guilty of a thief, and quickly stepped forward to cover Ye Yaodong's mouth.

"Who told you! Was it my brother?"

Ye Yaodong slapped his hand away, "Killing to silence him?"

"Uncle San, you can't tell anyone!"

It’s okay to laugh at him for carving “Study for the rise of China”. It’s just a little embarrassing when you say it out loud, but the latter is embarrassing.

"My mouth is on my body, Ye Chenghe loves Chen Xiuni..."

“Stop, stop, stop…” Ye Chenghe clasped his hands together and bowed a few times, pleading, “Don’t tell anyone, Third Uncle, I beg you…”

"You can do it, but you don't let anyone tell you."

"Who knew you saw it? How did you know?"

"This is all fate. Ye Chenghe loves Chen Xiuni..."

Ye Chenghe hurried forward and covered his mouth again, "Third Uncle..."

"Let go, I'll go to the village committee and use a loud speaker to shout later."

Ye Chenghe wailed, "No, then my reputation will be ruined."

"Haha, you are only allowed to carve it secretly, and you can't let anyone know?"

"You also said it was a secret, please don't tell anyone, please, Uncle San, if you don't tell anyone, we can still be good friends."

"Who is your good friend? I am your third uncle, your elder."

"Don't tell anyone. If you don't tell anyone, you are still my third uncle."

"What are you doing? If I tell anyone, you're going to disown me and kill me for the sake of justice, right? You're threatening me! I'll tell anyone that I'm still your third uncle, and you have to kneel to me when you get married."

"Then I'll kneel before you now, okay?"

Ye Yaodong couldn't stop laughing.

"At worst, I'll get married and I don't want your red envelope!"

“Fuck, hahahahaha…are you trying to make me laugh to death? No, I have to tell your mom that you can’t accept my red envelope when you get married.”

"No, no, no, let's just discuss it in secret."

Ye Yaodong's stomach almost hurt from laughing. "Go away, don't disturb me while I'm eating. You're making me die of laughter."

"What's so funny?" the old lady came in and asked curiously.

"He said he didn't want me to get married... um..."

Ye Chenghe quickly stepped forward to cover his mouth, then smiled apologetically to the old lady, "Nothing, Third Uncle was joking with me."

The old lady stepped forward and knocked his leg with her cane, "You are so disrespectful, let go of your uncle immediately and don't disturb him from eating. He went out at night and hasn't even slept yet."

"Okay, I'm leaving. Third uncle, I'm leaving. Remember this."

Ye Chenghe gave some final instructions and then quickly ran away.

Ye Yaodong couldn't stop laughing.

The old lady asked again out of curiosity, and Lin Xiuqing also came in with a radish and asked the same question.

He would not keep it secret from Ye Chenghe.

"This idiot told me not to tell anyone about him and Chen Xiuni's engraving, and said that I don't have to give him a red envelope when he gets married. Hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter."

"What a fool." The old lady also shook her head and cursed with a smile.

Lin Xiuqing also laughed and said, "If you tell this to others, people will laugh to death. How stupid."

"You're trying to entertain me so early in the morning, haha..."

"He was running so enthusiastically just now, he didn't even have time to put on his clothes before running here. He probably thought you were calling him for something good. My sister-in-law said at the door that normally he wouldn't respond when you called him, but when you called him he ran faster than a rabbit."

"I guess I'm regretting it now, haha. I should go and destroy the body later."

"Hurry up and eat your food. There's nothing to tease him about."

"Don't you think it's interesting?"

Lin Xiuqing smiled and shook her head and said nothing more.

His two children also came down while he was eating, rubbing their eyes and asking him why he was so noisy just now.

Ye Yaodong didn't say anything, he just asked them to eat quickly and then go to school and herd sheep.

However, when he finished his meal and stood at the door, he saw Ye Chenghe running back from a distance. The smile on his face deepened. He probably really went to destroy the body.

Mrs. Ye caught him at the door and scolded him, "Where the hell have you been? You disappeared so early in the morning. Everyone else has gone to school, and you haven't eaten yet."

"Uncle San asked me to run errands for him."

Ye Yaodong: "..."

Mrs. Ye didn't say anything at this point, but just urged him to hurry up and eat and go to school.

Seeing that he was still standing at the door and had not gone into the house to catch up on his sleep, Lin Xiuqing asked curiously, "Why don't you go to sleep quickly? What are you standing at the door looking at?"

Ye Yaodong stroked his chin and said, "I was thinking, should I make a written document stating that Ye Chenghe doesn't need me to give him a wedding red envelope, and have him sign it."

She smiled and slapped him, "You're still arguing about this with your child. When he gets married, will you still be able to save the red envelope?"

"It doesn't matter if you can't save the red envelope, but you can give him this receipt and put it in the red envelope."

After saying this, he thought it was a good idea and immediately went back to his room to get paper and pen so that he could practice calligraphy.

Lin Xiuqing was speechless as she watched him writing with a notebook and a pen in his hand.

"Are you serious?"

"A real man should keep his word. I asked him to sign the document when I got back at noon. He just let him slip away. What a mistake."

"I think you are more like a child than he is."

"Don't worry about it. When he gets married, I will definitely put this in a red envelope for him."

She looked down at what he had written.

"I promised Uncle San that as long as he doesn't tell anyone about me carving a heart-shaped heart with a leaf on the tree, he won't have to give me a red envelope when I marry Chen Xiuni."

After Ye Yaodong finished writing, he put down his pen and blew on the words. He also drew a heart and copied the words on the tree trunk exactly as they were.

"How is it? Has my handwriting improved? I can recognize every word now, and there are no missing limbs. When he comes back at noon, I'll ask him to sign his name and write the date!"

"You are so idle, you are still arguing with a child..."

"What's wrong with the child? The child has to keep his word. This is my handwriting. Who knows, it might be worth a lot in the future?"

Lin Xiuqing rolled her eyes and said, "I think I'm a great calligrapher."

"It's hard to say. Once I practice calligraphy, my calligraphy might become valuable when I become famous."

"Go to bed now."

There is everything in the dream.

Ye Yaodong looked at the list he had written with a smile and thought it was a good idea.

I definitely can’t save on red envelopes, but this order is also a commemoration.

Just enough for his wife to laugh at him for the rest of her life.

He smiled and tore the list off the notebook, took it into the house and put it away separately in a drawer, then lay down on the bed with the child in his arms and planned to take a nap.

But he was not sleepy at all. The fun he had this morning made him feel a little funny, and he was very energetic now.

Out of boredom, he pinched the child's face, touched her hands, and smelled her feet.

Ye Xiaoxi just felt her feet itchy, so she kicked them hard, causing half of Ye Yaodong's face to tilt to the side.

"father?"

"You little girl, are you awake?"

Ye Xiaoxi sat up and rubbed her eyes. "Dad, have you finished knitting the sweater?"

"Why the sweater again?"

"You said two days later, but it's been many days already."

"I won't."

"You learn."

"I learn...your mother?"

"Yeah, yeah."

Ye Yaodong had an indescribable expression on his face. He tilted his neck and shouted towards the door: "Lin Xiuqing, Lin Xiuqing..."

"What? You kept yelling so much in the morning that you even woke up the child."

"Take your daughter away."

Lin Xiuqing glared at him, then went in to get clothes for Ye Xiaoxi to wear.

Ye Xiaoxi shouted at Lin Xiuqing with a smile: "Mom! Mom!"

Lin Xiuqing called her in a soft voice with a deep smile on her face, "Why are you calling me mom all of a sudden?"

"Dad said learn from your mom!"

The smile on her face froze and she turned to glare at Ye Yaodong.

Ye Yaodong was happy again.

"I didn't say that. It's none of my business."

"You didn't say that, how could she learn like that? You teach the child nonsense all day long." Lin Xiuqing took Ye Xiaoxi's clothes and hit his legs hard twice.

Ye Yaodong quickly huddled up, wrapped the quilt tightly around himself, pressed the edge with his legs, then smiled and said in a flattering way: "It's fine to call her mom. You don't have to call her mother like everyone else. We can just call her mom."

Ye Xiaoxi smiled and threw herself into Lin Xiuqing's arms, hugged her neck and kissed her, calling out, "Mom, Mom..."

Lin Xiuqing's heart was melted by her shouting, what else could she say?

"Stand up straight and put on your clothes quickly. Your father hates you and wants to kick you out."

"No."

Ye Yaodong lay on his side on the bed, supporting his head with one hand, watching the interaction between mother and daughter with a smile.

"Hurry up and knit her a rainbow sweater. Otherwise, if she asks me for it every day, how can I knit it? And you insist on asking me to learn from you. Why should a grown man like me learn to knit a sweater?"

Lin Xiuqing glanced at him unhappily, "I see, you're just looking for trouble for me. I have to be busy all day. I've been knitting whenever I have free time. It's almost done."

"Ask my mother to help you weave. She has a lot of free time anyway. She can weave while chatting with others."

"Well, I've asked her to take the thread back and reel it up."

Lin Xiuqing put clothes, pants and shoes on the child and carried him out. Ye Yaodong was still shouting behind him: "Wait and see if Chen Wei has gone to the village committee."

"understood."

He rolled around twice in the quilt before closing his eyes comfortably, "It still smells like milk..."

He slept soundly until noon when the children came home from school. He was also woken up by the children's noise.

As soon as he went out, he saw people running happily at the door.

"Ye Chenghe, come here."

Ye Chenghe learned his lesson this time. He did not rush over immediately. Instead, he stood still, not daring to come over. He whispered, "What are you doing, Third Uncle?"

"Come here, do you hear me?"

This time Ye Chenghe understood his threatening look and moved closer to him reluctantly.

"Uncle Three..."

"I'm going to keep my word. I agree to what you said this morning. Go in and sign your name for me."

Ye Chenghe couldn't believe it. He actually had to sign and seal it?

"Are you still my third uncle? Is it that serious?"

"Stop talking nonsense."

Ye Yaodong pushed him into the house, then took out a form and asked him to sign his name and the date, November 1985, 11.

"It's written in black and white. It's OK. Get out now."

"Humph, I won't play with you anymore."

Ye Yaodong flicked his head hard and said, "Get lost."

After Ye Chenghe signed, he seemed to have gained confidence. The shameful matter was resolved. He was no longer fearful and walked out with his head held high.

Ye Yaodong also casually put the list into the drawer and locked it.

Lin Xiuqing watched them come out one after another in silence, and she also knew why Ye Yaodong called Ye Chenghe over.

"So serious..."

"Yes."

Ye Chenghe did not forget to agree before leaving, but when he turned around and saw Ye Yaodong glaring at him, he immediately ran away.

Ye Yaodong sat in his main seat, "It's time to eat, where are the people?"

"Tell them to go back to their hometown and ask their parents to come over for dinner, but they both ran away."

"Ah."

"I heard that Chen Wei left at dawn, and even Haozi was gone. The two of them left together."

He looked clear and not surprised at all.

"I knew it."

"It was not until the village cadres went to his home that they found out that he had left early in the morning. Even his wife didn't know what time he left. She found out after she woke up. She said he got up before dawn to pee, and then he was gone. It was the manure carriers who saw him early in the morning. They said they saw two people walking towards the village entrance at around 4 o'clock."

"If he doesn't run faster, the village will soon arrange for him to build a factory and make him pay for it."

"I know you don't have much money, so you just pretend to be rich."

"I didn't want to bother with them. If they wanted to return to the village in glory, then so be it. But I didn't expect them to target me and ask me to lay eggs. So I'll set him up and see what he does."

Lin Xiuqing packed up the food for him, brought it to him, and said with a smile: "The villagers were scolding him this morning, saying that he was pretending. Why didn't he say he didn't have money earlier? He acted like he was rich, but who knew that he was actually empty-handed."

"I heard that his wife reacted later and is still defending him, scolding everyone for spreading rumors, saying that he just had something urgent to do and was in a hurry to go out and make a lot of money, so he didn't have the time to stay in the village to run a factory."

"No one cares what she says. They only believe what they see and know. If they don't feel guilty, why would they run away before dawn?"

Ye Yaodong made a comment, "It was a joke, he probably regretted it and came back."

"Now that I haven't made much money, I'm probably too embarrassed to come back. I don't know how I made money outside, but 5000 yuan is not a small amount."

"There are many opportunities outside, and it's easy to make money. He has been out for more than two years, so it's normal for him to make money."

Nowadays, if you can go out and try your best to make money, there is no way you can't make money.

Many people earn small amounts of money and then accumulate them slowly to make big money.

Don't underestimate people either.

After Ye's father and mother came to eat, they talked about this matter at the dinner table.

The traditional virtue in their family is that they always have to say something to go with the food at the table, otherwise they won’t enjoy the meal.

Seeing the comments in the background, I want to ask: What is the joke about Uncle Hui... (confused)
