Chapter 97 Full of copper odor


Aunt Li, who was between Ye Fan's house and Zhang's house, heard Wang Aihe making trouble through a wall, and immediately went to Ye Fan's house and said, "Wang Aihe complained to Lao Zhang and you won't let her have an easy time."

One of the aunts who went to the park to sell popsicles was Aunt Li's sister-in-law. She helped Ye Fan get Wang Aihe down. Her sister-in-law could make more money, so she was so active.

Ye Fan also found out that one of the aunts was Aunt Li's sister-in-law after talking to her mother-in-law last night. Therefore, Ye Fan did not suspect that Aunt Li was stirring up trouble, "I'll go take a look."

Arriving at the door of Zhang's house, Ye Fan grabbed his pants pocket and asked, "What are you talking about? Let me listen too."

Zhang Xiaodi can remain calm and calm no matter what he does in front of shameless people. He feels embarrassed in front of people who are self-respecting, self-reliant and self-loving, and instinctively wants to fool him - it's nothing. To say that he is dishonest is to "help the evil tyrants", "My second sister-in-law said that you asked people to sell popsicles in the park to steal her brother's business."

Ye Fan nodded: "I snatched it. Wang Aihe, I'm not afraid to tell you that I've been losing money and making money in the park this summer. If you have the ability, just fight with me to the end!"

Ye Fan made four to five thousand last year, and selling Wang Aihe and Zhang Xiaojun is not worth the money. How dare Wang Aihe fight with her to the end, but it does not prevent her from saying harsh words, "Is this what you said? Don't regret it!"


Ye Fan nodded, "I said, I don't regret it!"

"I'll go to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau tomorrow!"

Uncle Zhang quickly stopped him: "Xiaojun's wife can't——"

"Then don't let the boss help them pull popsicles." Wang Aihe blurted out.

The car does not belong to Zhang Xiaoming alone, and Zhang Xiaoming cannot make the decision. It was Uncle Zhang who approached Ye Fan about the partnership business, and it was hard for Uncle Zhang to persuade Ye Fan.

Wang Aihe became excited when he saw this, "Ye Fan, just wait for me!"

Ye Fan nodded: "Tomorrow you go to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, and I go to your work behind. Whoever doesn't go will be the grandson!"

Wang Aihe suddenly changed his face.

Popsicles can only be sold for one summer vacation. Although they make money, if they don’t go to work after the summer vacation, they will be left in vain. Besides, there is no iron-clad job in business.

Ye Fan's words frightened Wang Aihe, and she became so angry that she cried.

"Okay, you go, I'll die for you!" Wang Aihe pointed at Ye Fan with tears in his eyes.

Where did the scoundrel come from? Or is this a shrew only capable of doing? Ye Fan couldn't help but curse: "Then you die, I will pay with your life."

Wang Aihe was shocked. He didn't expect that this trick would not work. But she had to show off her harsh words, otherwise her face would be nowhere to be seen. Wang Aihe looked around and hit the wall next to her mother-in-law, "I'm going to die!"

Aunt Zhang stretched out her hand to stop her, but Brother Zhang rushed over to stop his mother. Zhang Xiaojun was frightened and was stunned. Uncle Zhang was not in good health and was slow to react. When Wang Aihe saw that no one was stopping him, he slowed down and fell against the wall.

Aunt Zhang was blocked by her youngest son and couldn't see clearly, so she shouted anxiously: "Aihe——"

"Not dead!" Zhang Xiaodi interrupted his mother, "Wang Aihe, I count to three, if you don't get up I will chop you with a knife, so that you don't disturb this family."

Wang Aihe remained motionless. Brother Zhang immediately went to the kitchen to get a knife. Zhang Xiaojun came to his senses and hurriedly pulled her up. Wang Aihe struggled instinctively. Ye Fan saw this scene at the door: "You're not dead? Fortunately, I was about to surrender to the Public Security Bureau. It seems that your wall is not very good, and it didn't kill you. Dabao, Dabao, let us Get the rat poison.”

Wang Aihe got up and pointed at Ye Fan: "You dare to tell me that you are my ancestor from now on!"

Dabao ran out: ‘Mom, what did you say? ’

"Bring me your rat poison, the bottled kind."

Dabao blinked, you are making trouble.

Ye Fan stared, hurry up!

Dabao went back to the house with a speechless face to find rat poison, then poured the poison into the sewer and drank a bottle of tap water.

Ye Fan took the medicine bottle and said to Wang Aihe: "If you have the ability, come out!"

"Am I afraid of you?" Wang Aihe saw Zhang Xiaojun trying to follow, "Stop! Don't even come out. I'll see how she kills me."

Aunt Zhang was so timid that she cried and shouted: "Xiaoye, she is not sensible, don't be as knowledgeable as her."

"Aunt Zhang, I have to get along with her today. If she continues to interfere, your family will have a hard time, and my family will have a hard time. It's better to kill her and keep both families clean." Ye Fan waited for Wang Aihe to approach, and gave her a hand He held her chin and poured it in.

The moment the rat poison flowed into her mouth, Wang Aihe turned pale and hurriedly waved it away. The rat poison splashed all over her body, and the smell of the medicine stung her nose. Wang Aihe was speechless, and the corners of her mouth were trembling: "You, you - you want to kill me? Zhang Xiaojun, call the police!" < br>


Aunt Li immediately said: "I just happened to testify for Ye Fan!"

Wang Aihe was so anxious that he yelled: "You old fool! Get out of the way!"

Aunt Li's son was a filial son. Hearing this, he ran out and slapped her in the face. Wang Aihe screamed in pain and grabbed Aunt Li's son. Aunt Li's son didn't want to kick her because he was worried that the heavy foot would cause trouble, but when he saw her scratching his face with her claws and teeth, he had to step back and kick her away.

Wang Aihe sat down on the ground with a plop, and Aunt Li's son pointed at her condescendingly: "Swear again!"

Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang, Zhang Xiaojun, Xiaodi Zhang and Zhang Xiaozhi ran out. The latter two did not panic. Aunt Zhang and Zhang Xiaojun were the most anxious, holding Wang Aihe up one by one. Wang Aihe wanted to die again. Aunt Li's son pointed at Aunt Zhang and Zhang Xiaojun: "Let go! Let her die, and I will pay for her with my life!"

Aunt Li's son is two years older than Ye Fan. He went to a technical secondary school and had been working for several years before the Cultural Revolution. More than ten years later, he is now a middle-level leader of a state-owned enterprise. His straight face is as imposing as the leaders Zhang Xiaojun and Wang Aihe. It was so shocking that Wang Aihe was so scared that she didn't dare to say a word and grabbed Zhang Xiaojun's arm tightly.

Uncle Zhang sighed and apologized to Aunt Li. Aunt Li said: "It's none of your business!"

Uncle Zhang immediately asked Wang Aihe to apologize. Wang Aihe felt extremely embarrassed, pushed his mother-in-law and Zhang Xiaojun away and ran into the house. Zhang Xiaojun looked at Ye Fan, Aunt Li, mother and son, and hesitated for a moment to chase his wife instead of apologizing to Aunt Li.

Zhang Xiaodi said helplessly: "Brother Li, aunt, I'm sorry."

Aunt Li's son's anger dissipated: "It has nothing to do with you. Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang, don't blame me for not giving you face. If Wang Aihe scolds my mother again, don't blame me for being rude!"

Uncle Zhang quickly promised that there would be no next time.

Li's eldest son grabbed his mother: "Go home!"

Ye Fan looked at Aunt Zhang with a half-smile but not a smile: "Has anyone ever taught you that spoiling a child is like killing a child?" He picked up the rat poison on the ground and went home.

Aunt Zhang smelled the medicine and asked in disbelief: "Is it really rat poison?"

Ye Fan paused and continued walking home.

Aunt Zhang looked at her youngest son, really?

"Do you think they are scaring her?" Based on Zhang Xiaodi's experience, Ye Fan was scaring his second sister-in-law. Zhang Xiaodi doesn't mind taking advantage of this to do it again, "At worst, I'll give it to her stomach and then wash her stomach. If someone accidentally dies, just say that the second sister-in-law drank it herself. We didn't see it clearly in the courtyard, and Aunt Li didn't tell her, She doesn’t admit it herself, and the judge can’t do anything about it—with Sister Ye’s family background, the investigators don’t dare to torture her to extract a confession!”

Aunt Zhang wanted to say, is there any royal law in this world?

Zhang Xiaodi seemed to know what his mother was thinking, "Sister Ye doesn't care about your daughter-in-law, do you really think she is an ordinary citizen who is easy to bully? If you continue to do this, I guarantee that she will die without knowing how she died!"

This was said in a loud voice, and Wang Aihe, who was in the room, heard it clearly, and finally thought that Ye Fan's father was a general, the kind who came home with a gun.

These words also frightened Uncle Zhang, who grew up in the old society and had seen a lot of darkness, not to mention Aunt Zhang, who was already timid. She wished she could go back to her parents' home now and stay far away from Ye Fan.

Aunt Li and her son in the Li family courtyard smiled helplessly. This little brother can really scare people.

Before, Little Brother Zhang called the police to arrest Wang Aihe's mother-in-law. The time her mother-in-law came to pull the "three turns and one ring" signal, Aunt Li was nagging her son, and Little Brother Zhang was in trouble.

The eldest son Li said that people who are inconvenient but smart and follow the right path will not be easy in the future. Aunt Li thought about Zhang Xiaodi's academic performance. It is said that he was not in the top ten in the class and was in college. She had to agree with her son's words.

Ye Fan couldn't help but laugh when he heard Zhang Xiaodi's words in his courtyard.

Dabao asked tiredly: "Are you still laughing?"

Ye Fan whispered: "I'm scaring her."

"You poured the medicine into your mouth and you still scare me?" Dabao was speechless.

Ye Fan whispered: "I bet she is afraid of death."

"You lost the bet? Do you want dad to find a stepmother for Erbao and me?" Dabao was so angry when he saw his mother being so stubborn that he stared at his mother with his little hands on his hips.

Erbao came out of the room: "Brother, mother has never lost."

Dabao glared at his sister: "Are you praising her? Geng Erbao, shut up."

Erbao muttered: "Mom is not stupid."

Ye Fan bent over and pulled down his son's little hand: "Are you tired with your hands on your hips? Wang Aihe and Zhang Xiaojun went their separate ways at noon on the day of their wedding, and then came back in the afternoon, which shows that she is spineless. Today, it is your sister-in-law's turn and mine. I don’t even dare to do this.”

Geng Zhiqin was cooking in the kitchen when he heard this and came out: "Sister-in-law, I don't want to compete with her."

"Let's cook!" Ye Fan glared at her, "Don't delay me from teaching the child."

Geng Zhiqin rolled back to the kitchen angrily.

Ye Fan said: "Dabao, mom is bold but not reckless." He whispered, "Believe mom."

"If you don't believe me, I dare to give you the medicine?" Dabao asked, "But just because I believe you doesn't mean I support what you do."

Ye Fan nodded: "Okay, I won't do this next time!"

"Do you still want a next time?" Dabao swore that he would tell his father when he came back.

Ye Fan put away his smile and said, "Is it over?"

"I'm worried about you, but you still dare to be angry with me?" Dabao couldn't believe it.

Ye Fan was speechless and wanted to laugh: "Geng Dabao, what is in the bottle that I have to tell you?"

Geng Dabao blinked and couldn't help but ask: "Do you know?"

"Why is there still water outside the bottle if it hasn't been opened?" Ye Fan pointed to the wet label, "It's not like I haven't used this bottle of rat poison before. There's only half a bottle left. When I opened it just now, I found it was full and the smell of the medicine was no longer there. It’s become watery, is it all water?”

Dabao was speechless: "I, I - I'm afraid that you will be so angry that Wang Aihe will make you do something stupid!"

Ye Fan: "Thank you Geng Dabao for caring about me."

"Then you promise me you won't be so reckless in the future? I was scared to death by you just now."

Ye Fan sighed, why is this kid more troublesome than her mother, "If you don't believe me, it's useless even if I promise every day. You see, Erbao doesn't worry about his mother. Dabao, as an elder brother, why are you not as calm as your sister?"


Erbao nodded. Mom was right. My brother is not as good as me.

Dabao glared at his sister.

Erbao turned around and went back to the house.

Dabao chased her in and taught her sister a lesson. The main idea was that from now on, when he is busy with homework and comes home late from school, she should keep an eye on her mother and not do stupid things. She told him to know that she didn't stop her just like before and still thought her mother was doing a good job, so he would beat her.

Ye Fan couldn't stand listening: "Geng Dabao, don't scare your sister."

"You should stay out of my sister's affairs!" Dabao replied when he came out and then went back to the house to continue scolding his sister.

Ye Fan laughed angrily.

Geng Huihui couldn't laugh. She didn't expect that a small matter would cause such a big deal, "Auntie, I won't sell popsicles anymore. Anyway, if my grandma finds out, she will scold me."

Last year, Chu Fenghe asked his children to go to the Chu family, but Ye Fan disagreed. However, after all, Huihui and Benben were not her children, so Ye Fanquan pretended that he didn't hear it.

Ye Fan said: "Let me give you an idea. Your grandma will call you over again and ask you why you are selling popsicles in the park again. You just said that you don't have money to buy pens, inks, paper and inkstones. The paper needs rice paper, the pens need Xuan pens, and the ink needs Hui ink, inkstone She Yan. Your mother said you were picky. You said you didn’t want the best rice paper, and you didn’t want the Hu brush. If you don’t want to buy it, just say so. Don’t make excuses. You can buy it yourself.”

Geng Huihui: "My grandma will definitely say that I am unreasonable."

Ye Fan: "You don't think I can afford it. I will give you whatever the Dabao and the second treasure want."

"You will spoil Dabao and Erbao bad." Geng Huihui said, "My grandpa would say this."

Ye Fan smiled: "If your cousins ​​are not spoiled, who will be admitted to Beijing University?"

Geng Huihui's eyes lit up, "I seem to know how to deal with them!"

Ye Fan: "The fact that they don't allow you to sell popsicles is unreasonable. Don't reason with them and try to make them understand you. It's useless!"

Geng Huihui nodded: "It's more nonsense than them."

Ye Fan was very pleased: "You can teach me!"

Separated by a wall, the entire Li family, who were enjoying the cool air in the courtyard, heard clearly and suddenly felt that Ye Fan was more troublesome than Wang Aihe. Wang Aihe's money and family background are not as good as others, and he is not as ruthless and smart as others. He dares to confront others. He deserves to be scared half to death just now.

However, Wang Aihe healed his scar and forgot about the pain.

After dinner the next morning, she went back to her parents' house and asked her brother to continue selling popsicles today.

The aunt who sells popsicles across from Wang Aihe's brother came home yesterday and did some calculations. She made four and a half yuan in one day without moving, which is more than her son's salary at work. She will continue today. The reason is to thank the neighbors for supporting her last year. Today she bought more and gave away more.

Wang Aihe said she was Zhang Xiaoming's sister-in-law, and the people at the popsicle factory asked Zhang Xiaoming if she was. Zhang Xiaoming said distant relatives. Distant relatives can also help carry a box. Thinking of this, the people at the popsicle factory realized that the relationship between the two companies was not good. They didn't know Wang Aihe either, so the price given to her was high.

Her brother sold it cheaper than her aunt yesterday, so she went home to settle the accounts and earned one yuan and seventy cents. Half of it was given to Wang Aihe, which was worse than working as a temporary worker in the factory.

Today, the aunt is still doing this. In the evening, Wang Aihe comes to help her brother pull the box. Her brother can't stand it and quits. Wang Aihe asked him to hold on for one more day.

The aunt was still a "big reward" and worked in vain for three consecutive days. Wang Aihe couldn't hold it anymore and went to the park near her home to sell popsicles.

The elders and aunties in the park near Ye Fan's house didn't know that Wang Aihe's brother had asked for leave to sell popsicles. When Wang Aihe's neighbor saw that her brother was not at work, he guessed that he had asked for leave from the factory.

These days, there are so many idle people in society who are unemployed, which is a disaster. It is intolerable that Wang Aihe’s younger brother, who has a job, asks for leave! The next day, he was reported to the boss. The boss went to the park to prove the incident and fired him.

Wang Aihe's mother was very angry, blaming her for encouraging her brother to sell popsicles, and asked her what she would do now that she had no job. Wang Aihe asked Zhang Xiaojun to lend her brother his car and let her brother specialize in selling popsicles.

The car was gone and he would not be able to make money in the future. Wang Aihe thought it was all Ye Fan's fault and cursed him when he returned to his in-laws' house.

Brother Zhang shouted to the neighbor next door: "Sister Ye Fan, come quickly, my sister-in-law will scold you and you will die."

Aunt Zhang pointed at her youngest son in disbelief: "Aren't you hurting your sister-in-law?"

Brother Zhang: "You are spoiling your daughter-in-law, Sister Ye has no obligation to spoil her! If you don't want Sister Ye to kill her, just tell her to shut up!"

Ye Fan walked over slowly, and Zhang Xiaojun was so frightened that he hurriedly closed the door. Ye Fan was happy. Aunt Li heard the noise and came out. She saw the courtyard door was closed and whispered, "Are you scared?"

Ye Fan shook his head: "I don't know." He whispered: "Ask your sister-in-law to go back at half past ten tomorrow. If no one takes the place, it means she is afraid, so she will sell it at the usual price."

Wang Aiping was afraid.

At 10:30 the next day, Zhang Xiaoming put down the popsicle, and there was only one aunt at the entrance of the park. The old man who came to the park to enjoy the cool asked: "Why didn't that little comrade come today?"

The aunt talked nonsense: "Go back to work in the factory."

The uncle was surprised: "He also has a job?"

Auntie: "If he had no job and needed to make money, and he would cause trouble for me every day, Xiaoye wouldn't ask me to make money here at a loss."

It's a pity that the uncles and aunts didn't fight to buy cheap popsicles, but they hated people who stood at their workstations and didn't work, so they criticized Wang Aihe's brother with every word.

Ye Fan didn't let Wang Aihe go. In the evening, he heard Wang Aihe's voice and walked out of the house, "Granddaughter, please call me ancestors and listen."

"Who are you talking to?" Wang Aihe asked.

Ye Fan: "You. You said that I dare to teach you that I will be your ancestor from now on. Did you forget it so quickly?"

"You - don't bully others too much!"

Ye Fan smiled: "Yes, I just like to bully people! You dare to touch me? No matter who in my family is missing a finger, I will get a gun and kill your whole family!" Wang Aihe suddenly remembered what his colleague said, "The children of high-ranking cadres have nothing to fear." ", my heart skipped a beat, and I went back to the house dejectedly.

As soon as Dabao heard that his mother and Wang Aihe were arguing, he hurriedly leaned by the door and stared, preparing to stop his mother from being stupid. When he saw this, he was surprised and looked at his mother, asking what happened to Wang Aihe.

Ye Fannao didn't understand, so he went to the door of his house and asked in a low voice: "Are you scared by me?"

Wang Aihe was frightened and kept having nightmares at night.

Ye Fan didn't think Wang Aihe was so timid. The next evening he heard her voice come out of the house again and asked Wang Aihe to call her ancestor, regardless of whether Uncle Zhang was happy or not. Zhang Xiaoming paid back the money he paid for the car to Uncle Zhang. The car now belongs to Zhang Xiaoming and Ye Fan. As long as Zhang Xiaoming doesn't get angry.

But Wang Aihe didn't have any nightmares tonight. At lunch in the cafeteria, Wang Aihe asked a colleague if the children of high-ranking cadres were particularly arrogant and domineering.

In the past two years, the reputation of the children of high-ranking cadres has not been good, mainly because of those who are spoiled by their elders. But Wang Aihe didn't say male or female, nor did she say that Ye Fan was a college student in Beijing. Her colleagues thought she was talking about those people, so they said that the men had a lot of girlfriends, and the women smoked and drank like gangsters.

When he returned home in the evening, Wang Aihe broke up.

There were many people in the factory but few houses. No matter who they were allocated to, there would be trouble. The leaders of Zhang Xiaojun Factory simply came up with a way to rent or buy it. If you rent it, you can rent it for 20 cents per square meter. If you buy it, it will cost one or two thousand for a small one or three or four thousand for a big one. , whoever pays for it will be given first.

Many workers think that the factory will have to arrange housing in the future even if they don’t pay. Among them is Zhang Xiaojun. But Wang Aihe wants a house, and a big house. Not counting the big balcony, the indoor area alone is a big house of 80 square meters. So I want to sell the house that Uncle Zhang assigned to Zhang Xiaojun to Uncle Zhang for three thousand for two rooms.

Zhang Xiaodi pointed to the west: "Do you know how much Sister Ye's house costs for such a big house? It's less than ten thousand! The house that my eldest brother wants to buy is nine thousand! No one wants our house for seven thousand, and you still want three thousand for one-fourth of it. What a dream." ! ”

Wang Aihe couldn't believe that the house was so cheap. Just look at Zhang Xiaojun and see if it was real or fake.

Zhang Xiaojun nodded.

Uncle Zhang said: "Come with me to get the notarization. From now on, when your mother and I are gone, you are not allowed to ask for this house anymore. I will give you one thousand and fifty."

Wang Aihe thought it was too little. But compared with Ye Fan's family, the Zhang family's cramped environment only costs one thousand and fifty cents for two small rooms. Wang Aihe hesitated all night and went to the notary to get the money. In the afternoon, she went to her parents' house to borrow some money, and then she and Zhang Xiaojun went to the work unit to pay for the house.

They were used to eating ready-made food at home. After a busy day, the couple didn't want to cook, so within a few days they coaxed Aunt Zhang to live with them. Aunt Zhang was also willing, saying that she had a young son and two daughters to take care of her husband at home, and she had nothing to do at home, so she should go over and help the young couple.

In the past few days, Ye Fan was too busy selling popsicles in the afternoon and couldn't take care of Wang Aihe. Zhang Xiaoming went to Ye Fan's house in the morning after selling vegetables and said that he didn't have time to sell popsicles in the morning. He wanted Ye Fan to have a hard day because he had to move things for his mother. Only then did I realize that Wang Aihe moved so quickly.

Ye Fan thought about the housing prices in later generations. A large house of 80 square meters was very valuable, but it was far less expensive than the housing in the school district here. The two plots of land sold by Wang Aihe alone could buy her two apartments, so Ye Fan didn't know it for a moment. What to say.

Uncle Zhang is in poor health and must be ahead of his wife. Just in case Aunt Zhang decided to give the house to Zhang Xiaojun, when she saw Brother Zhang in the evening, Ye Fan encouraged him to change the name on the real estate certificate.

Zhang Xiaodi felt that his eldest brother and second sister could not fuck his second sister-in-law, so he coaxed his eldest brother to give him his share, and then asked his father to give him the house.

Uncle Zhang is an old-fashioned man and would give the house to his son if he did not want to be alive. But the second daughter-in-law was like that, and his younger son said that he would ask his daughter-in-law to move in later to prevent him from being beaten to death, and he would transfer the ownership of the house the next day.

No one knows about this except Ye Fan, Little Brother Zhang and Uncle Zhang.

It was only the end of July at this time.

This time last year, Geng Zhiye had been back for seven or eight days, and Ye Fan couldn't help but feel anxious. It was Army Day, Sunday. The Children's Palace was more formal this year. Students did not have classes on Sunday. After breakfast, Ye Fan asked his son who was playing in the house: "Geng Dabao, is your dad really poached by a vixen?"
< br>

Dabao snorted: "Now you know you are in a hurry?"

"I'm not in a hurry. I'm afraid that you and Erbao won't have a father."

Dabao: "Find us another one. What are you afraid of?"

Ye Fan was choked by his son's little mouth and couldn't speak. He held it in for a while and stood up, "Watch at home. If Xiao Ming comes back, let him go to pull the popsicles. I will go in the afternoon."

"What are you going to do now?"

Ye Fan: "Call your grandpa and ask."

It was less than nine o'clock, and it was still early to pull popsicles at ten o'clock. Geng Huihui and Geng Zhiqin were both at home. Dabao asked his aunt and cousin to wait for Xiao Ming at home. He chased his mother with his calves. Go to his mother, hold her hand, tilt your head and ask: "Are you anxious? Are you really anxious?"

Ye Fan: "I'm annoying you!"

"I don't bother you! Even though your name is Ye Fanfan."

Ye Fan stopped: "Can you learn from Erbao?"

"Grandma said that the same rice can feed all kinds of people. If there is a second child in the family, it is impossible for a child to be well-behaved." Dabao pulled her, "Where are you making the phone call?"
< br>

Ye Fan: "Public phone booth!"

"Can you call the army?" Dabao was worried.

Ye Fan nodded: "If you know your grandfather's office phone number, you can call."

The call got through, but the person who answered the phone was not Ye's father. Ye Fan and his son went to a shady place to wait for half an hour and then went to the phone booth to call again.

Geng Dabao whispered: "Mom, you are in a hurry, you are so anxious."

"Shut up!"

Father Ye was startled: "Annoying?"

"Dad? I'm not talking about you, Dabao is annoying." Ye Fan quickly explained.

Dabao chuckled.

Father Ye heard his eldest grandson's voice through the phone but wanted to laugh: "Why are you arguing with him? A child is not sensible yet. What happened?"

"I'm fine." Tao Chunlan was worried that Ye Fan wouldn't pay attention while driving and that Chen Xiaohui would look around while riding, so she told them to pay attention to safety when she saw them. Ye Fan was so annoyed by her mother that she couldn't even think about not paying attention, "What vixen seduced Geng Zhiye?"

Father Ye was stunned for a moment, dumbfounded: "Don't talk nonsense. Zhiye encountered some trouble, it's not a bad thing. I don't know the details. If nothing happens, I can go back in a few days. You can ask him later."


Ye Fan estimated that Geng Zhiye had some special mission, but she felt a little uneasy when she thought that he would not be asked to go on missions while he was still studying in the military academy. If Geng Zhiye was in the army, no news would be good news.

Ye Fan: "When will you retire?"

"Retire when you reach the age." Ye's father's position has come to an end. He has no motivation to work hard, and his son does not need his arrangements. He plans to retire when he receives a hint of his retirement at the conference at the end of the year. "Don't work too hard. Money told dad.”

Ye Fan: "I know. Do you want to have a chat with Dabao?"

Dabao stretched out his hand and snatched the phone away: "Grandpa, my mother was very aggressive the past few days. I was almost scared to death by her." He told his grandpa about feeding rat poison to Wang Aiping, and then said: "Wang Aiping moved away recently, I guess It was my mother who was scared. Aunt Zhang cried that day and left with her daughter-in-law. She must have been scared by her. My mother is famous in this alley.”

Father Ye wanted to laugh: "Your mother is sensible."

"Why do you say that?" Dabao exclaimed.

Father Ye quickly said: "Grandpa will scold her when he comes back."

"Are you willing to give it up?" Dabao asked.

Father Ye promised: "Give it up! It's a matter of life and death, so if you don't want to let it go, you have to let it go!"

"Then when are you going home? I'll take my mother there."

Father Ye wanted to ask if it was annoying to watch him count the fallen leaves. Thinking that his eldest grandson was anxious over there, Father Ye couldn't tease him anymore, "I'll call Xiaohui before I go back and ask Xiaohui to inform your mother."

Chen Xiaohui sells ice cream every day and sees Ye Fan. Dabao thinks that grandpa is not fooling him, "Grandpa, rest more and don't be too tired."

Ye's father agreed before hanging up the phone.

Dabao glanced at his mother and said, "Just wait! Let's see how your father deals with you later."

"Go home!" Ye Fan pulled his arm to the door of the house and couldn't help but stop. Dabao was puzzled, "Why doesn't mom leave?"

Ye Fan raised his chin toward the room. Dabao looked over and saw that there seemed to be two more old people. He opened his eyes wide and looked at them with fascination. He asked softly in disbelief: "Are those two old people from the Chu family?"

"Be polite." Ye Fan pulled his son in.

Dabao went to the courtyard, opened his eyes, jumped in and shouted: "Grandpa Chu, Grandma Chu, when did you come?"

Father Chu forced out a smile: "Yanyan?"

Dabao was stunned for a moment before he realized his name was "Geng Yanyan", "Yes. Do you want some popsicles?" He opened the refrigerator and took out a few.

Geng Dabao couldn't help but pick up any pot. The smile on Chu's father's face disappeared: "I'm old and have a bad stomach, so I won't eat. Thank you Yanyan."

"You're welcome." Dabao gave one to each of his brothers, sisters, and one to his sister-in-law, grandma, and mother. He also took one and took a bite. "Grandpa Chu, why don't you rest at home if you have a bad stomach? What can I do for you? My second mother should call or ask my cousin from the Chu family to come and tell me.”

Geng Huihui said deliberately: "Yes. Just ask my cousin to come over and say it."

Chu Fenghe's mother asked angrily: "What is he here for? What did I tell you last year? Have you forgotten or are you deliberately going against me?"

Geng Huihui suddenly felt that the popsicle in her hand was not sweet.

Ye Fanxin said, I have been content for too long, and you think I am easy to bully, right?

"What caused such a big fire?" Ye Fan asked deliberately.

Mother Chu: "Aunt Huihui, you have two children to raise and want to make some money. Everyone understands. We also support it. But Huihui and Benben are still children, how can you encourage her to sell things? People in the world are very If the reputation of being demanding and loving money at a young age spreads, how will they find a partner in the future? How will Huihui be a mentor after graduation? "

Geng Huihui couldn't help but said: "Grandma, just say what you say about me——"

Ye Fan was furious and interrupted Geng Huihui: "You are right. Which high-ranking family member did your eldest grandson marry? Which young talent did your eldest granddaughter marry?"

"You - they are in a special situation." Chu's mother said.

Ye Fan: "What do you mean by this are you dissatisfied with your grandson's wife? That's no wonder."

The old couple didn't understand what he meant. Chu's mother asked: "What's the wonder?"

Ye Fan said: "I haven't raised my grandchildren well. Seeing how good Benben and Huihui are, I want to take them to the Chu family."

Father Chu frowned: "How can you talk like this? We are thinking about their future."

Ye Fan: "It sounds like we don't care about them. You two, last year I wanted to say that Ben Ben and Hui Hui's surname is Geng!" The implication is that it has nothing to do with you, so don't be too lenient!

Chu's mother was speechless: "You, you - you, little - you are overthinking! We didn't want Huihui and Benben to become members of the Chu family with our surname."

Ye Fan suspected that she was trying to be mean, "Your grandchildren are not as good at studying as Huihui. When you have time to not stare at them, you worry about Huihui and Benben. Whoever knew this would find it abnormal. Do you think I should How to guess the two? ”

Chu’s father: “You can’t just focus on grades, grades don’t represent everything.”

Ye Fan said: "What can students do if they don't focus on their grades? Can their character allow the company to increase Huihui's salary, or can they research mushroom eggs? I don't think character needs to be perfect, as long as they don't do anything illegal. Your requirements are too harsh. I don’t agree with Huihui and Benben going back with you.”

Chu's mother was anxious: "I have been a teacher all my life and I know how to educate them better than you."

Ye Fan: "Which of your grandchildren is admitted to Beijing University?"

Chu's father opened his mouth: "——They are not good at learning, but their moral character is excellent!"

Ye Fan: "Have they helped their classmates and colleagues, or donated money when the country encountered a major disaster?"

Father Chu was asked.

Ye Fan: "Huihui has made money. When the country encounters floods and earthquakes, she can spend 100 yuan to buy a bunch of clothes and send them to the disaster areas. Your granddaughter and grandson have no money, so just saying sympathy for the people in the disaster areas is nothing but hypocrisy in my opinion!" ”

Geng Huihui immediately wanted to applaud her aunt, but she held back for fear of fainting her grandma and grandpa.

Chu's mother asked: "How much do you donate?"

Ye Fan said: "I didn't say I have excellent moral character? I said I smell like copper!"

Chu's mother paused for breath. She didn't expect a Beijing student to dare to commit suicide.

Ye Fan dared to feed people rat poison, so what else did she dare not to ask: "Your grandson has joined the workforce. Was he rated as a model worker last year?"

The old couple didn't notice.

Ye Fan saw that their faces were frosty but silent. He guessed that Huihui's eldest cousin had not been rated as a model worker. "Besides, you two have worked at the grassroots level. People are suffering, right? As a people's teacher, you should know how to treat rural children." The only way out is studying. After your parents returned to the city, did you send them books or write to them about their studies? Did you throw away the clothes that your grandchildren couldn’t wear or send them to rural children in need? br>


Father Chu never thought about this.

Ye Fan snorted: "I have never helped the country from above, I have never helped farmers from below, and I have never judged advanced individuals. Do you judge your own outstanding moral character?"

Yu Wentao couldn't help it anymore and burst into laughter. At the same time, she couldn't help but be glad that she shut up or hid out when she saw Ye Fan's expression was wrong, otherwise she would have wanted to die every day.

Chu's mother became angry and asked Geng Huihui: "Won't you two go back with me?"

Geng Huihui shook her head.

Father Chu immediately said: "There is no regret medicine in the world! Don't blame us for ignoring you in the future."

Geng Huihui wanted to laugh. Her uncle was a high-ranking official, her brother-in-law was a military officer, her aunt was at Beijing University, and her teachers were better than her grandparents. As the daughter of General Ye, her aunt had more connections than the Chu family. What happened to her uncle? Aunts, uncles and aunts can't solve it.

Geng Huihui stood up and said: "Grandma and grandpa, be careful, I won't send you off."

The old couple was so angry that they left immediately, leaning on crutches.

Geng Leile asked in a low voice: "Auntie, what you just said was a bit harsh."

Huihui, Benben, Dabao and Erbao stared at him at the same time.

Geng Leilei hurriedly explained: "I'm not blaming my aunt. Their character may be so angry that they have trouble sleeping and eating. They don't eat or drink when they are older. They might have to go to the hospital tomorrow. If my second aunt finds out, she will definitely blame you."

Geng Huihui couldn't help but panic when she heard this: "Auntie, how about I still--"

"Or what? Just stay at home. When your mother takes vacation, they will have passed the holidays. Will your mother care about a dead person and me as a living person?"

Geng Huihui: "I can't tell. After all, they are my mother's biological parents."

Ye Fan: "Don't your mother know that your grandma and grandpa are making trouble without reason? If you haven't come back this year, maybe you don't want to be in a dilemma."

Yu Wentao nodded: "I usually have very little time in the summer, and my work efficiency is low due to the hot weather. This year, the Dog Days are almost over and I haven't seen you yet. I guess I'm just afraid of the nagging of the old lady from the Chu family."

Geng Huihui thought about past years. Her grandmother dared to go to Hengshan Island because her parents often came back in summer. I came back last summer, and the summer before last was not busy. Geng Huihui sat back: "Grandma, why didn't you tell me earlier? I'm scared to death. When I see cars these days, I worry that my parents are on top of them."

Geng Leilei asked doubtfully: "Car? Second uncle's? But isn't second uncle a fitter?"

The room suddenly became quiet.

Dabao jumped up and took Erbao to pick cucumbers and tomatoes. Geng Benben and Geng Huihui looked at each other and chased out. Ye Fan wanted to go out to help but Geng Leilei stopped him, "Even if the second uncle is a senior fitter, it is impossible to have a special car." Right? ”

"I've never been into the factory, who knows." After Ye Fan finished speaking, he left and shouted outside: "Xiao Qin, Aunt Yu, come out and take a look. Why do I feel like a dead rat?"


Geng Leilei immediately stood up and blocked his aunt and his mother. Yu Wentao avoided him: "It's useless to block me. I only know the opera and the lyrics, but nothing else."

Geng Zhiqin pointed to the book on the Arhat's bed next door: "Your second uncle gave Dabao as a gift. You may be able to find the answer from there."

Geng Leilei was very puzzled: "Aren't those books about watches and clocks? My uncle asked his second uncle to help Dabao find them."
