Yu Wentao was happy to see her grandchildren go to the Chu family to kiss her. After hearing this, she returned to the kitchen and told Geng Zhiqin to get out.
Geng Zhiqin came out angrily.
Geng Huihui couldn't help but ask: "Did you quarrel with grandma?"
Geng Zhiqin said angrily: "I have nothing to do."
Geng Huihui nodded, I think you are quite free.
Geng Zhiqin was speechless by her attitude and went to bother Dabao again.
As soon as Dabao heard that his cousin was back, he immediately came out of the bedroom and almost bumped into his sister-in-law at the door. He was startled by her. Dabao looked at his aunt speechlessly, "Are you very free?"
Geng Zhiqin touched his nose, turned around and asked, "Huihui, do your grandparents still work on Sunday?"
Geng Huihui said subconsciously: "I'm not working."
"Then why don't I have time to talk to you two?" Geng Zhiqin said to his nephew with his eyes.
Geng Zhiye came out of the main room: "I want to know too."
When Geng Huihui saw her uncle's serious expression, as if he was looking for an explanation from her grandparents, she hurriedly reconciled, "It's not like I ignored us on purpose. A few days ago, my aunt bought a house near my cousin's workplace. It seemed like Because of this, my eldest cousin’s fiancée is getting married. My brother and my uncle and aunt went to have dinner with the woman’s house. My brother-in-law and aunt were busy decorating. “That’s the house where we are the only ones.” I don’t want to wait for anything to eat, so I just tell grandma to cook for us.”
Geng Zhiye frowned: "Your uncle won't go home at noon?"
Geng Huihui: "I should be on my way back now. But because my grandma and grandpa won't come back at noon, my uncle and aunt must not have bought many vegetables in the morning, and there is nothing delicious."
Geng Benben nodded and asked: "What to eat for lunch?"
Yu Wentao emerged from the kitchen: "Are you hungry?"
There were a lot of people on the bus on Sunday, and the siblings didn't want to get on it. They walked there and then walked back. They had digested their food after going back and forth for several kilometers, so it was not just because they were hungry.
Ye Fan: "There are still peaches in the house."
Geng Benben went to the house to get four, went to the kitchen to wash and wipe them clean, gave one to each of his sister and brother, and asked: "Where are the second treasures?"
Ye Fan looked across the kitchen. Geng Ben rushed to Erbao's room: "Little Erbao, what are you doing?"
Erbao is studying painting in the Children's Palace and has recently become obsessed with painting. He paints whatever comes to his mind, just like a young artist.
Ye Fan didn't want Erbao to lose patience with painting because of her family's frequent interruptions, so she didn't allow her family to disturb her. Otherwise Dabao wouldn't be playing checkers with him alone in the bedroom.
Geng Benben saw that the little girl was very serious, put the peach on the table, and took her out.
Outside, Geng Benben saw his sister eating peaches: "Is it sweet?"
Ye Fan was confused: "You two didn't eat before?"
In the morning, Ye Fan bought peaches and went to the stall with Zhang Xiaoming. I wonder if the children ate the peaches. At that time, Geng Benben and Geng Huihui had just finished breakfast and had no appetite, so they didn't touch the peach.
When he arrived at Chu's house, Geng Benben was a little thirsty and planned to wash some peaches and taste them, but he happened to see his grandma going out. Geng Benben casually put the peach on the coffee table and sent his grandma out. When he came back, the peach had been collected by his aunt.
Geng Benben was embarrassed to ask his aunt for peaches, so he poured himself a glass of water. Then I didn’t want to eat anymore. Geng Benben told these things in general, and Geng Zhiye frowned: "When did your little aunt become so good at living?"
Geng Benben shrugged indifferently to express that he was unclear.
Ye Fan: "Maybe because he just had breakfast, his aunt didn't feel hungry, so she put the peaches away first."
Geng Huihui muttered: "Who knows what she thinks. If I say I don't want to buy it, you have to let me buy it." She muttered in a low voice, "You might as well give me the money."
Ye Fan was speechless and wanted to laugh: "When I go to your grandma's house, do I have to go empty-handed?"
Geng Huihui: "My grandma is reasonable and won't care about such a trivial matter."
Ye Fan suddenly smelled the smell of tea: "Let's keep this to fool your mother. The two of them are busy studying and sorting out materials every day and have no time to think about this. They think your grandma is your grandma before your mother got married."
Geng Huihui couldn't refute, so she curled her lips and changed the subject: "Grandma, how many dishes are there for lunch?"
"How many dishes do you want?"
Yu Wentao's voice came from the kitchen. Geng Huihui moved to the door of the kitchen and saw cucumbers, tomatoes and edamame on the table, and exclaimed: "Have the cucumbers and tomatoes grown up?"
Ye Fan moved to the other side of the kitchen door and said, "It's grown in the village."
Geng Huihui looked towards her vegetable patch: "How come the cucumbers grown by grandma bloom?"
Ye Fan: "They planted them early. They were worried about freezing and covered them with a layer of wheat straw matting. When I earn money to buy plastic film this year, I can plant them a few days earlier. Maybe I can eat cucumbers in early May."
Geng Huihui couldn't help but ask: "Why plant so early?"
Ye Fan: "Grow it early and sell it early. Now you can sell it for 50 cents per catty, and in half a month it will cost 20 or 30 cents. By the end of June, you can pick and choose at a penny per catty."
Geng Huihui suddenly realized: "That's it." Then she couldn't help but say, "I didn't expect that there is so much knowledge in farming."
Ye Fan: "If you want to be productive and make money, you have to use your brain. Otherwise, there is no need to set up an agricultural university."
Geng Huihui nodded with deep understanding.
Ye Fan heard the sound of the door opening and turned around to see Erbao coming out with a peach. Ye Fan waved, and Erbao leaned on his mother to eat peaches. Ye Fan asked: "Are you tired of painting?"
Erbao shook his head, took a bite of peach, swallowed it, and said, "Mom, I like this crunchy peach."
Ye Fan touched her little head: "Mom will buy it tomorrow. In fact, soft peaches are also delicious. In a few years, when you and your brother grow up, you won't need to be held by your mother on the train. Mom will take you to the peach producing area to eat peaches. .”
Geng Benben and Geng Huihui looked at Ye Fan in unison, as if asking, where are we?
Ye Fan couldn't laugh or cry: "Can we all go?"
The brother and sister were very happy. Geng Huihui saw her grandma putting away the vegetables and said, "Grandma, come out and I'll cook."
"You can eat the peach." Huihui comes back once a week. Yu Wentao feels sorry for her hard work in studying and rarely lets her cook and wash dishes.
Geng Huihui entered the kitchen: "Eat. Grandma, yours is not as delicious as what I made."
Yu Wentao stepped aside and saw Geng Huihui put the cooking pot on the stove, poured hot water, and then boiled the beans. She couldn't help but said: "It's not too troublesome."
"It has a beany smell if you don't blanch it." Geng Huihui likes to blanch it and then fry it. Yu Wentao doesn't want to bother and just cooks it. Even though she also thinks Huihui's cooking is delicious, she doesn't want to waste time blanching it.
Geng Huihui cut some more mustard and made scrambled eggs with mustard and edamame. After frying this dish, cover it with a pot. Geng Huihui boils the sausage in hot water, slices the sausage and stir-fries the cucumber. Finally, there is fried tomato and loofah.
After the three dishes were ready, Yu Wentao took the rice cooker to the kitchen, and Ye Fan told Benben and Dabao to wash their hands.
Geng Zhiye and his sister came out.
After the meal, Geng Zhiqin cleaned up the kitchen. Yu Wentao asked Ye Fan and Geng Zhiye to rest while she looked at the few children.
Ye Fan had just finished eating and didn't want to lie down. When he saw her mother-in-law going out with a few children, she didn't need to worry about her mother-in-law hearing it, so she asked Geng Zhiye: "Did you ask Xiaoqin?"
Geng Zhiye got up early today and was a little sleepy, so his response was slow: "What?"
"The second spring. I saw you two coming in from outside before dinner. Aren't you chatting with foreign old men outside?"
Geng Zhiye rubbed the corners of his eyes: "Yes. But Xiaoqin didn't ask directly. He just said that she was not yet sixty years old. If she lived to be eighty, wouldn't she have to be a widow for more than twenty years? It's a normal sentence, right? I don’t know how to stimulate her, she is so angry.”
Ye Fan: "Just these few sentences?"
Geng Zhiye nodded: "Xiao Qin was very innocent when she talked about this. I was thinking that she had just served dad away and didn't want to serve an old man anymore, so I didn't think of looking for him again."
Ye Fan: "It's also possible. Although your dad doesn't use her to wipe his feces and urine, he often goes to the hospital for check-ups. I wouldn't be able to bear it."
Geng Zhiye laughed: "Can you say that in front of me?"
Ye Fan nodded: "So take care of yourself. If you are paralyzed in bed, I will divorce you."
Geng Zhiye stood up.
Ye Fan was surprised: "I'm angry!"
"Sleepy." Geng Zhiye pulled her up and said, "Let's talk on the bed."
Ye Fan: "What are you talking about? I already told you to let nature take its course. You two are the ones worrying about it. My sister-in-law came back from a relative's house and wanted to introduce a partner to Xiao Qin. Her relatives' relatives knew everything about her. Xiao Qin even thought that her sister-in-law was too meddlesome. Kuan. My daughter asked me to go on a blind date - if she wasn't her biological child, Aunt Yu could skin her with a kitchen knife."
Geng Zhiye took off his shoes and nodded: "You are right."
Ye Fan: "Looking for a wife is not about looking for a long-term meal ticket, nor is it necessary to get married."
Geng Zhiye almost fell off the bed: "What did you say?"
Ye Fan: "We usually stay together when we are happy, but when we are unhappy, we separate. Young people can fall in love without getting married, but old people can't?"
Geng Zhiye was speechless and held back a sentence for a long time: "You are playing hooligan."
Ye Fan rolled his eyes at him: "Old antique!"
Geng Zhiye stared at her: "Ye Fanfan, tell the truth, if it weren't for the situation back then, would you have wanted to do this?"
"When I say this, does that mean I have thought about it?" Ye Fan rolled his eyes, "I am reasonable and considerate of others."
Geng Zhiye said angrily: "Yes, I think about things that others can't think of."
"Don't be so weird." Ye Fan pushed him, "Go to sleep on the Arhat bed, you are not welcome here."
Geng Zhiye leaned towards her: "Don't think about it again in your life."
"You are also sick." Ye Fan turned her back to him, Geng Zhiye turned her over, "Don't you have the face to face me?"
Ye Fan laughed angrily: "Am I afraid of you? Believe it or not, if I tell your father-in-law right now that you bully me, we can get divorced tomorrow?"
Military marriage protects military personnel, and military personnel can only divorce if they ask for divorce. Otherwise, the non-military party can only file a lawsuit and obtain divorce in the court. If the target were Ye Fan, it wouldn't be so troublesome. It would only take a matter of minutes for Ye's father to talk to Geng Zhiye's leader.
"You're using my father-in-law to oppress me again." Geng Zhiye couldn't help feeling aggrieved, "Why doesn't my father-in-law retire yet?"
Ye Fan was speechless: "He can work until he is seventy years old. He is only sixty-eight this year."
"There are still two years." Geng Zhiye nodded: "I will settle the score with you in two years."
Ye Fan wanted to laugh again: "Where are you comforting yourself? If a person leaves with cold tea, he will die, like your father."
Geng Zhiye couldn't help but tsk: "Can you stop talking about my dad all the time? He is your father-in-law."
"I haven't heard you call me daddy. How often have you spoken to me like a father-in-law and father-in-law? How many times have you said 'your father, your mother'?" Ye Fan pushed him away, "Take Dabao until he is four years old. , until the second baby is two years old, my parents are worthy of you.”
Geng Zhiye came up again, "I didn't say anything at your house. We went out together after we got engaged and sent you home at four o'clock. Your mother was too late. It was as if I wanted to kidnap you. Also Last weekend, you said that Dabao and Erbao were going to study in the Children’s Palace, and she also said that Dabao and Erbao didn’t want to go to grandma’s house. It was simply unreasonable!”
Ye Fan also felt that her mother was a bit intolerable.
Geng Zhiye didn't come back last weekend, but came back last Saturday night. The next day at the weekend, he went to the village with Zhang Xiaoming. After coming back to sell vegetables nearby for a while, Ye Fan asked Zhang Xiaoming to drive south to her mother's alley.
Ye Fan considered that Chen Xiaohui was not at home and it would be difficult for her mother to take care of her children alone, so he bought a few kilograms of each vegetable and twenty eggs for her mother.
Tao Chunlan asked Ye Fan when it would be sold out. Ye Fan said it would be around eleven o'clock. Tao Chunlan asked Ye Fan to bring Dabao and Erbao over. Ye Fan said that they went to the Children's Palace.
When Ye Fan and Zhang Xiaoming arrived home, her mother and Chen Xiaohui came with Liang Liang, saying that they wanted to see the first and second treasures.
Geng Zhiye was also at home that day, and Tao Chunlan nagged him that he didn't know he was going to Ye's house with Dabao and Erbao.
Geng Zhiye didn't dare to anger his mother-in-law, so he said he would definitely go next time.
The next time is today. Geng Zhiye accompanied Dabao and Erbao to the Children's Palace. It was only eleven o'clock when they came out of the Children's Palace. It was perfectly late to go to grandma's house, but Geng Zhiye pretended that it was nothing and brought the children back directly.
Ye Fan: "If you take Dabao and Dabao here today, won't she be unreasonable and make trouble?"
Geng Zhiye closed his eyes: "Go to sleep. It will be dark if you don't sleep."
Ye Fan glanced at him helplessly.
One got up early and the other was busy for a long time. Both were so tired that they fell asleep after calming down for a while.
At two o'clock, Yu Wentao asked Dabao to go to the main room.
Dabao jumped onto the bed, and his body instinctively made Geng Zhiye sit up. Dabao was shocked: "It's a fake corpse!"
"Shut up!" Geng Zhiye saw clearly that the person in front of him was his own son and relaxed, "What are you doing?"
Dabao: "Grandma asked me to wake you up. Mom, I saw your eyes moving. Get up when you wake up."
Ye Fan stretched out his hand, and Dabao pulled his mother up: "You are really my ancestor."
Geng Zhiye was amused by his helpless look: "How to say?"
"My ancestors don't have any trouble with my mother. Isn't my mother the ancestor?" Dabao jumped out of bed, "Hurry up."
Ye Fan: "What are you doing when you get up?"
"Let's go to the park." Dabao ran to his bedroom, took out two shoes with four wheels, an iron piece and some ropes, and waited for his parents in the yard.
Ye Fan couldn't help but frown when he saw these simple skates: "Dabao, aren't these shoes ugly?"
Dabao: "Buy me a nice pair."
The good-looking ones will go abroad. Neither the Ye family nor the Geng family have overseas connections. “Mom doesn’t know where to buy them.”
"Then you still dislike it?" Dabao sat on the ground and stretched out his hand after putting on his clothes, "Dad, pull me up."
Ye Fan stepped forward: "The road outside the door is uneven, and there are cars on the roadside."
Dabao: "Then I'll take off my shoes and put them on again in the park. Can you hold them for me?"
Ye Fan nodded.
Dabao took off his skates and handed them to his mother: "These shoes are so heavy."
"Then you ask your grandma to buy it?" Ye Fan looked around. His mother-in-law should have gone out. "Sooner or later, your grandma's pension will be wiped out by you."
Dabao: "I didn't coax grandma. Grandma said that if others have Dabao, they should also have it."
Ye Fan was too lazy to scold him and asked Geng Zhiye to get the kettle. Geng Zhiye put his bag on his body and said to Ye Fan: "Go back to school directly from the park."
Ye Fan: "Then wash the remaining peaches."
Dabao nodded: "Dad, take it away. Mom will buy it tomorrow."
Geng Zhiye washed half, seven or eight, stuffed them into his bag, and then went to the park with his wife and children.
When the family of three arrived at the alley entrance, they saw Erbao, Huihui and others approaching the park. I don't know who looked back and saw the three of them, waiting for them where they were.
When Ye Fan came to him, Erbao teased: "Mom, why don't you take a nap before it gets dark?"
Ye Fan shook his head: "I'm dreaming. The dream is full of two treasures, crying and fussing, eating and peeing."
Erbao's face turned red with anger: "Don't talk nonsense!"
"I'm not talking nonsense. You were like this before you were two years old." Ye Fan said seriously, "Do you still remember what you were like before you were two years old?"
Erbao doesn’t remember: “Brother, was I so noisy when I was a child?”
Dabao: "Before you were two years old, it was before I was four years old. Do you think I will remember it?"
Erbao turned to her mother: "You're just relying on the fact that we don't remember?"
Ye Fan nodded: "Yes."
Erbao was so angry that he didn't want to talk to her: "Dad, come here!"
Geng Zhiye went over: "Want to change your mother?"
Erbao's pupils are shaking. Didn't dad wake up? The second baby hurriedly looked for his mother: "Mom, dad wants to change his wife!"
Geng Zhiye paused for breath: "Geng Erbao!"
Erbao let go of his father and ran forward.
There was a bicycle on the roadside. Geng Zhiye was worried that the car would hit her and she didn't dare to chase it. She asked Dabao to catch up and watch Erbao not to run away.
Dabao said helplessly: "Why are you scaring her?"
Ye Fan: "When was it not your sister who ran against us first?"
Dabao scratched his head, and so did the second baby. He usually didn't talk much. Whenever he opened his mouth, he would either tease his father or ridicule his mother. I don't know who he learned this from.
Dabao sighed and ran to catch up.
Yu Wentao was funny: "Look how worried he is."
Ye Fan: "I'm only eleven and a half years old. I think I've grown up every day." Then he asked his mother-in-law why she wanted to go to the park.
Yu Wentao glanced at the shoes in Ye Fan's hand and said, "Dabao is going to the park to practice this. Erbao told the teacher who taught her painting that she should go out more and see more. Huihui and Benben thought it was boring at home."
Ye Fan asked Geng Zhiqin when he would go to school.
Geng Zhiqin: "I'll take the car over after dinner at seven o'clock tomorrow. By the way, sister-in-law, isn't it scary for Xiao Ming to go to the countryside alone before dawn?"
Ye Fan: "He went to the village after dinner at six o'clock, and arrived at the village at about 6:40. He stayed at my uncle's house for one night and came with him in the morning. I made an agreement with my uncle for one yuan a day and rice included. I asked my uncle to remember ”
Geng Zhiqin said: "So you or third brother were free to accompany him there, so he went there in the morning like today?"
Ye Fan nodded: "He was originally reluctant to part with this dollar, because it only costs twenty or thirty dollars a month. I said it's ours, and Uncle Zhang is also worried about gangsters robbing him, so I asked him to listen to me."
"It's better this way, it's safe." Geng Zhiqin said seriously, my sister-in-law is so considerate in her work.
In her previous life, Ye Fan left home at the age of sixteen to live in a boarding high school, then went to university in other provinces, and then worked hard in first-tier cities. If she wasn't careful, she would have been eaten to the bone.
Geng Zhiqin added: "Just now we were waiting for you in the alley and heard Aunt Zhang telling people that Zhang Xiaojun's marriage was scheduled for National Day."
Yu Wentao snorted.
Geng Huihui, who was walking in front of her, couldn't help but look back: "Grandma, is it bothering you to have a wife?"
Yu Wentao: "November falls on the fourth day of September. I have read the almanac and it is forbidden to get married. This daughter-in-law of the Zhang family knows what the Zhang family is like, and she deliberately makes three turns and one ring. She is so ignorant, and it is enough for the Zhang family. "Zhang Xiaoming is as happy as marrying a fairy. I don't care about your third aunt marrying your third uncle."
Ye Fan: "You mean National Day is a bad day?"
Yu Wentao was anxious: "Don't blame me. The whole country is celebrating National Day, and it must be good! But being good does not mean that it is suitable for marriage. We are not afraid that the day will be too big for the couple's small bodies to hold it down."
Ye Fanxin said, here comes another superstitious one.
Geng Zhiye asked her to help Zhang Xiaoming ask Aunt Zhang when she would find a partner for Zhang Xiaoming. I can't let my brother's children get involved because he's not married yet.
Yu Wentao was worried at first that Ye Fan was partnering with someone else, but after three months, the accounts were clear and Zhang Xiaoming didn't even know how much money Ye Fan made, so Yu Wentao was very satisfied with him.
Yu Wentao also knew that all the Zhang family's money was spent on buying a car. All the money Zhang Xiaojun used to get married was earned by Zhang Xiaoming. Zhang Xiaoming can make money because his daughter-in-law is clever. Rounding off, Zhang Xiaojun spent her daughter-in-law’s money.
Thinking of this, Yu Wentao felt unhappy and decided to ask Aunt Zhang about it when she saw her later.
In the evening, Geng Zhiqin and Geng Huihui were cooking. Ye Fan put a bath cover in Dabao's room and let Dabao take a bath first. The room was warm. Ye Fan made another pot of hot water and asked Dabao to take a bath. Geng Benben was licking the water in Erbao's room. As for homework, Yu Wentao didn't have anything to do for the time being, so she went out to chat with people and casually talked about Zhang Xiaoming.
Zhang Xiaoming did not have a serious job before and his family did not have a house. People in this alley sympathized with him, but they would not be kind enough to introduce him to a partner.
Now I heard that the Zhang family could afford the "Three Turns and One Ring", and it was estimated that Zhang Xiaoming had made money. When several aunts and uncles heard that Yu Wentao asked Zhang Xiaoming when he would do something, they told Aunt Zhang that if any of their relatives didn't have a partner, they would look back. Ask Xiao Ming to meet or something like that.
Yu Wentao didn't expect it to go so smoothly, and she was quite happy. As a result, the two of them chatted further and further away. Even Zhang Xiaoming had made arrangements for having children in the future, and what schools their children would go to and who they would marry. Yu Wentao couldn't stand listening and came back to find Ye. Tired of complaining.
Ye Fan had just finished dressing Er Bao. Yu Wentao came in, put away the bath cover, and said: "Those people didn't even talk about finding a partner for Xiao Ming before, but now they have even thought about where Xiao Ming will live."
Ye Fan: "Didn't you take the opportunity to buy an apartment for Zhang Xiaoming?"
Yu Wentao shook his head: "It's useless to say it. The Zhang family - don't think that Old Zhang is open-minded just because he asked Xiao Ming to do business with you. His family has no other choice, and they don't think it's shameful to do business with you. That’s why Xiao Ming is actually not as good as me at heart. If the three brothers of the Zhang family want to move, the second and third will move, and the old house will belong to the eldest brother.”
Geng Dabao sat in the yard with a towel on his head and looked at the stars. Hearing this, he turned around and asked, "Are those two houses the only ones?"
Yu Wentao couldn't help but want to laugh when she saw her grandson's look of disgust: "It's just those two houses."
"If I were Zhang Xiaoming, I would leave it to Brother Zhang." Dabao got up and wiped his sister's head. When he felt that it was no longer dripping, he asked his mother to touch it.
Ye Fan took the towel and said, "Wipe it for a while." He glanced at his son and said, "Brother Zhang didn't provoke you. I heard from Xiao Ming that if his brother had not spoken, he would not have been able to buy this car."
Dabao muttered: "Then leave it to Zhang Xiaojun."
There is no better son than a father. It’s impossible for Uncle Zhang not to know Zhang Xiaojun’s virtues. Unless Uncle Zhang's eyesight is dim, he would never dare to expect Zhang Xiaojun to support him in his old age.
In fact, finding a house and a wife is a trivial matter. Now Ye Fan is only worried that Zhang Xiaojun will quit his job tomorrow and compete with Zhang Xiaoming for business.
Fortunately, the Zhang family now has no money to buy another car.
Ye Fan hopes to earn back the money for the car as soon as possible, see Zhang Xiaojun's attitude, and then remove this hidden danger from him as soon as possible.
But Ye Fan usually has to go to class, and Zhang Xiaoming goes to the countryside alone. His small body must not be able to bear the back and forth several times a day.
Zhang Xiaoming is not as tall as Ye Fan, and he is not as healthy as Ye Fan.
Ye Fan decided to think of a business that didn't require him to travel around.
In mid-June, on Sunday, Ye Fan took Dabao and Liangliang to Ye's house. Dabao took Dabao and Liangliang to buy popsicles. Seeing the popsicles, Ye Fan had an idea, but when she thought about making a penny per popsicle, the salt water popsicles might only be a few centimeters, and she looked down on it.
After lunch, everyone went to take a nap. Ye Fan went to Chen Xiaohui's room and asked, "Has Shen Cheng been looking for you recently?"
Chen Xiaohui: "I wrote several letters. I opened them at first and saw they were threatening me in the letters. I didn't even read the rest and just burned them."
Ye Fan: "They may not be able to help but come to you when you go on summer vacation. Think about it, I will tell mom and ask her to call the police. Or you can send a letter to Shencheng now, saying that you have asked the police, What they do is a crime. If they bother you again, call the police. If they don’t believe it, you can ask the local police.”
In her previous life, Chen Xiaohui was used to listening to the words of Chen Kuanren and Zhao Ruping. For her to be so "rebellious", she couldn't help but panic: "Should we wait any longer?"
"Then it's not your part to make money during the summer vacation!" Ye Fan turned around and left.
Chen Xiaohui quickly stopped her: "I'll write!"
Ye Fan was not surprised and stood next to the desk and watched her write. After she finished writing, Ye Fan said, "You may not appreciate small money."
"No matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat."
Ye Fan said: "From now on, I will sell vegetables in the morning and popsicles in the afternoon. Now Zhang Xiaoming will do it first. When I have my summer vacation, I will go to the popsicle factory in the afternoon. There are two boxes at the entrance of the park and the station. Do you dare to do it?"
Chen Xiaohui looked down on the popsicle business. She thought Ye Fan was going to the south to sell goods.
Ye Fan really wants to go to the south, but she doesn't have that much money, and the capital is not a special economic zone, so big business is likely to be regarded as speculation. If the popsicle business is small, even if the problem is brought to the police station, the police will also criticize the person who provokes the trouble.
Ye Fan: "You and Benben will go to the station later? Will you two share the money from the sale? Xiaoqin and Huihui will take Dabao and Erbao to the two parks over there. If you are sure, do this."
< br>
"I'll think about it."
Ye Fan saw her staring at the letter in her hand. She was probably more afraid of Chen Kuanren coming to her than making a small amount of money. "Then you think about it slowly."
When he got home in the evening, Ye Fan held a meeting with the whole family and talked about the popsicle business.
Yu Wentao said: "If you don't go to the station, there will be many thieves at the station, and the money you make will not be enough for the thieves to worry about."
Benben asked: "Then where should I go?"
Yu Wentao blurted out: "Children's Palace."
Dabao's eyes lit up: "Yes, Brother Benben and I go to the Children's Palace. We can have classes in the morning and sell popsicles in the afternoon. Mom, let Xiao Ming pull the popsicles and you bring us food. We won't come back at noon."
< br>
Ye Fan was shocked: "Your piggy bank is full. Mom has never been short of your pocket money. Do we need to work so hard?"
Dabao: "Isn't that what you said? Nowadays, no one sets up a stall to sell popsicles. Is it easy to make money by doing an exclusive business? When I grow up in two years, there will be popsicle sellers everywhere. It will be too late for me to make money."
Ye Fan regretted that he had nothing to do and kept mumbling at home: "Aren't you going to your uncle's house this summer?"
"Uncle can't run away." Dabao shook his head, "It's not too late to go when I go to college for summer vacation."
Geng Huihui said: "Ben Ben, there are many people in the Children's Palace. By the way, I want to ask who is selling the house."
Geng Benben raised his hand and saluted like his third uncle, expressing his commitment to complete the task.
Seeing how motivated they all were, Ye Fan couldn't bear to say anything else: "The money earned is four to six cents, four for us and six for you."
Dabao nodded: "Okay. Pulling a popsicle requires burning oil, and brother Xiao Ming has to work hard."
Ye Fan: "You have to call me Uncle Xiao Ming."
"Xiao Ming said he could be called whatever he wanted," Dabao said. "He also said Xiao Ming sounded younger."
Ye Fanxin said, there are so many reasons, you might as well change your name to Li Dabao. "Dabao, if someone asks, is your family very poor? Otherwise, why would you sell popsicles? How would you answer?"
Dabao: "Have you discovered this? For the sake of being so poor, let me buy some popsicles."
Ye Fan was speechless.
Do children of this age not care so much about other people’s opinions?
Ye Fan looked at Geng Huihui and Geng Benben, "You think so too?"
Geng Benben: "Others don't believe us when we say we are rich. They must think we are trying to make ourselves fat."
"Okay!" Ye Fan was sure that he didn't care about other people's opinions, "Then it's settled."
Erbao was unhappy: "Mom, why don't you ask me?"
Ye Fan: "I thought you and my brother had the same idea. Don't you think so?"
Yes! Erbao couldn't refute, and felt that his mother had fooled him, "I don't want to sell popsicles, I want to play popsicles with Xiao Ming."
Ye Fan nodded: "Okay!"
One afternoon, get out of class ended early. Zhang Xiaoming drove to wait for Ye Fan at the school gate. After picking up Ye Fan, he went to the popsicle factory to pick up a box of popsicles.
The box was made by someone from the village, as was the quilt wrapping the popsicles. Yujiacun made a total of eight boxes and used this year’s new cotton to make popsicle quilts. Ye Fan asked Zhang Xiaoming to find someone in the village to buy six. When uncle Yu saw that Ye Fan needed so much for one car, he asked his wife to make four more. He looked back to see how Ye Fan sold them, and they went with Ye Fan.
There were no small shops near Ye Fan's house, so he pulled a box of popsicles over and within half an hour they were all bought by the neighbors and passers-by getting on and off the bus.
Ye Fan accompanied Zhang Xiaoming and Uncle Yu to the popsicle factory again. The two knew how to get the goods, and it was safe to go to the popsicle factory during the day. The two families were separated, and whoever sold the food first went first.
The boxes are all placed at Ye Fan's house for the time being - Ye Fan's house is a courtyard house with two rooms on both sides of the south door corridor. One room was converted by Ye Fan into a place for putting spittoons and summer baths, and the other room was used to store some unused things. The popsicle box is placed in this room.
On the last weekend of June, before Zhang Xiaoming arrived home after selling groceries, he took two boxes and Erbao to the popsicle factory.
When Erbao got out of the car, the older one she saw called uncle, and the younger one than her father called brother. When people asked Zhang Xiaoming who she was, Erbao said "Brother Xiaoming".
People thought that Zhang Xiaoming wanted to take care of his sister while selling popsicles, but they felt sorry for the little girl who came out on such a hot day and gave her a red bean-flavored popsicle.
Erbao is very happy.
Erbao regretted being exposed all the way back. The final exam was over and she had summer vacation. Ye Fan asked her to go, so she said she would do her summer homework.
Erbao works so hard every day. When the popsicle business officially begins and the Children's Palace starts classes, she has finished her summer homework.
Geng Benben couldn't believe it when he learned this: "Er Bao, are you a good student?" Before Er Bao could answer, "Fortunately, I don't have summer homework when I start high school."
Ye Fan: "Geng Benben, don't forget, study in the morning and start selling popsicles at noon. If you regress in your studies, your parents will blame me for bringing you up, so I will send you to grandma's house."
Geng Benben hurriedly swore a promise and took his textbooks to the Children's Palace.
Dabao said: "Brother Ben Ben, take out our old clothes from last year."
Geng Benben: "It doesn't fit a bit."
"We all sell popsicles. If we wear new clothes every day, we will be considered to have only one new set of clothes. If we wear old clothes and they get damaged while sitting on the ground, we will tear them up and leave them to grandma to make shoes." Dabao said, "Mom, am I very smart? ?”
Ye Fan has a headache, Geng Dabao should change his name to Geng Paixiu: "Don't let me hear you try to be frugal again!"
