Lin Xiuqing was ordering her younger son to work, and asked him to stretch his hands forward. She twisted a piece of wool twisted into a long twist, twisted it in the opposite direction, and put it on his arm.
And grab his arms, let him continue to open his arms again, and stretch the wool to the tightest.
"Okay, just keep it like this, obediently help with the work, and there will be rewards later."
Ye Chengyang said happily: "Mom, are you rewarding apples? I have seen it."
Lin Xiuqing smiled and said: "Your eyes are sharp. Put it in the basket and cover it with a cloth for you to see. Help me with the work obediently, and I will share apples with you after dinner."
"Okay, okay, I have to share with my brothers and sisters!"
"You are quite generous, and you know how to share, better than your elder brother who is stingy and protects food."
The old lady beside her also smiled and said, "Yangyang is the most obedient, he will love his brothers and sisters."
Ye Chengyang was coaxed into obedience, smiled happily, and stood there obediently.
Lin Xiuqing found one end of the thread in the ball of wool in his hand, and then put the four fingers of his left hand together, and wound the wool around the four fingers continuously. After a small ball was wound, he took it away from the fingers, and then Winding horizontally.
Then slowly wind a ball of thread into a small ball, and continue to wind and roll.
Ye Chengyang looked at the woolen yarn stretched out in his hand, and rolled it quickly in his mother's hand. He also matched the force of the thread being pulled, turning left and right once, matching the thread being rolled out, feeling a little bit fun.
"Mom, why are you making a ball?"
"Knit sweaters for the three of you brothers and sisters."
His eyes lit up again, "Really? We have new clothes again."
Lin Xiuqing smiled and said: "Yes, this year, the family conditions are good, so I plan to knit a new sweater for each of you, so that you can wear it warmer in winter, so as to save two yellow rivers hanging under your nose all day long, and then wipe it with your sleeves, it will be dirty to death." Yes, the sleeves are stiff every day."
The old lady hurriedly said: "In the past few sweaters, the eldest one was too short to wear, but the second one could still be worn, and the sleeves could be folded at most. If the second one couldn't wear it, the thread was taken apart, and some thread was added again. Go in and weave it for the boss, so that one new one and one old one can be changed and washed, and if there is more thread, I can weave another vest and vest for Xiaojiu."
"Yes, I thought so too, so I took the time to go to town in the afternoon to buy some wool. I plan to weave it as soon as the weather turns cold, so that I can wear it when the temperature cools down next month."
"It's a pity, my eyesight is not good now, otherwise I can help weave two clothes."
"It's not easy, why not take you to get some reading glasses?" Ye Yaodong just pushed the cart to the door when he heard their voices and hurriedly said.
"Dongzi is back?"
"Why did you come back so early today?" Lin Xiuqing flipped her left wrist and looked at the watch on her hand. It was only half past three, so she just said, she just got home for a while, and thought she was late.
"I didn't have much stock today, so I came back early. I brought back three baskets of Balang fish, which should weigh about 200 catties. I'll ask my mother to come over and help kill them later."
"It's 200 catties again", Lin Xiuqing ninja said again, and changed the subject, "Mother is still early from get off work, let me kill first."
She handed the half-rolled ball of yarn to the old lady, which was only the size of her own fist, "It happens that you are free, so I rolled this for you."
"Okay, okay, I'll do this."
Ye Yaodong only noticed what they were doing. No wonder he just heard the old lady say that she has poor eyesight, otherwise she could help weaving.
"When did you buy the wool? Don't you have a lot of cloth left at home?"
"Cloth can only be used to make long johns or outerwear. To keep warm, we still need to knit two sweaters."
"oh."
He looked at the old lady again, "You really need to get a pair of reading glasses, otherwise you won't be able to see clearly, right? I'll take you to the town to get a pair after two days."
"No, no, I can see. Who said I can't see? I'm not blind. Do you think I usually can't see?"
"Who said just now that my eyesight is not good? I am old, and my presbyopia is normal. A pair of glasses is at most two or three yuan, so I don't have to worry about spending money."
"Two or three yuan?" The old lady hesitated, "Then I have it, then...then match one..."
Ye Yaodong shook his head amusedly, how could he let her take out the coffin book?
However, you can take her to take a photo by the way.
"When the wind blows and you can't go out to sea, I'll take you there, so you can do more work, and you can help knit two sweaters."
"Hey, that's right, I can knit a sweater with my glasses on."
The old lady found her own value again, and she was happy again, and she didn't feel sorry for the money for glasses.
Lin Xiuqing came out of the house with a kitchen knife and a cutting board, and saw Ye Yaodong cheering up the old lady again, obviously the old lady loved him most for spending money.
She laughed and complained, "I've coaxed you to work, and you're still so happy."
"This shows that I am still old and useful. I... am not afraid of working, but I am afraid that I won't be able to do it. This kind of work can at least give me some exercise and exercise. So, don't let me go to the ground all the time. , I can grow vegetables, you can eat some too.”
"Every family is busy now. Those who go to work go to work, those who go to sea go to sea, those who study, those who take care of their children. I am an old idler. Of course I have to help with something."
"Tomorrow, the seeds of Gai Cai can also be sown. It will be used to pickle some pickles at the end of the year or spring, or it will be delicious to cook Gai Cai Rice on March 3rd..."
The old lady was twirling her wool and thinking about it.
Ye Yaodong removed the three baskets of fish from the board, wiped the sweat from his brow, "Let's cut the sweet potato vines later, you can pick a handful and cook a bowl at night."
"Why do you eat that? It's for pigs. There are spinach in the field. Pull a few spinach and fry it."
"Then I think fried sweet potatoes and vines are quite delicious."
This will still be sold in the market in the future! How can I give pigs this.
Lin Xiuqing rolled her eyes, "There's nothing delicious, since I want to eat sweet potato vines, then I'll fry a bowl for you tonight."
"I'm a good feeder, I can eat whatever pigs eat."
Lin Xiuqing almost blurted out: Do you eat what the dog eats?
She swallowed dryly, and changed the subject: "How much did you sell today?"
"42 yuan."
"Is that okay?"
As far as she knows, the villagers can only sell about forty or fifty if they trawl well, and generally thirty or forty are the majority.
"Okay?" Ye Yaodong raised his eyebrows, "I dragged two baskets of groceries, which were worth five or six yuan, and I almost couldn't even earn back the gas money."
"That's why you caught a big fish, that's why you sold it for so much money?"
"It was the longline fishing that encountered a small group of blue and white fish, so there were few empty hooks, so I received a lot of goods. Later, I encountered dolphins to drive the fish away, and I caught three more nets to fill them, so I was able to sell them like this. many."
"It's pretty good."
"Well, it's okay, the main reason is that the fish caught are not worth much, so I kept three baskets of Balang fish back."
"Anyway, it's cold, if you encounter worthless fish, bring them back and let them dry more."
"Don't you always complain about the fishy smell on your body, and kill the fish that other people will kill in their lifetime every day, and now you need to expose it more?"
"Taking it all back, who wants to marry a chicken like a chicken, marry a dog like a dog, marry a shoulder pole, and carry it away? If you marry a fisherman, you can only accept your fate and kill fish for the rest of your life."
"That's right, you have to accept your fate and kill the fish for a lifetime, otherwise, if you marry into the mountains, you will have to pick dung and farm the land. It's not as easy as it is now."
Ye Yaodong squatted there to help, and took out the whole gills of the fish from the position of the gills, along with the guts of the fish, and then threw the fish to Ah Qing to behead.
Ah Qing gave him a clear look, then took a knife and chopped off the head of the fish vigorously.
This strike made him feel a bit too strong, which made him unable to help but look at her more, don't imagine him chopping off the head of a fish.
"Isn't picking **** a man's job?"
"Women can do it too, don't we all advocate equality between men and women now?"
"Unreasonable! You hurry to take a bath for me, and I will get angry when you talk."
"Tch, I get annoyed when I can't say it to others, a woman is a woman~"
Lin Xiuqing glared at him, gestured with the kitchen knife, Ye Yaodong hurriedly moved two steps to the side, then backed up and stood up.
"Miscellaneous!"
Ye Chengyang kept turning his head to look at them, and shouted like his father, "Miss!"
The old lady stopped the knitting in her hands, and poked his forehead with a smile, "Don't be good and don't learn. If you learn from your father, you will be scolded."
Ye Chengyang giggled, "Mother is Za Mou."
Ye Yaodong patted his little head, "Yes, your mother is Zamou! That's right."
The old lady patted Ye Yaodong's arm with a smile, "Go take a shower, don't talk poorly here, and teach your son bad."
"Um."
"Father, mother also bought apples, the red ones look delicious."
"Okay, I will reward you with half of it later."
Ye Chengyang smiled triumphantly, "Mother just said to reward me, and Dad will reward me with half, then I should have one."
Ye Yaodong patted his forehead, "Smart ghost."
"Hey~"
"Help me take off my shoes and wash my feet, and I will reward you with half..."
Ye Chengyang instantly wrinkled his facial features into a ball, and hurriedly refused, "No more, enough..."
