PDLP Chapter 161: Really Proud
Chapter 161: Really Proud
Xu Yiyi felt a little confused and turned away.
Li Xiuying snorted coldly, with a strange look on her face.
"It's fine for a woman like you to open a stall outside in public, but now you're actually going to the trouble of opening a restaurant. Don't you feel ashamed?"
Her father and mother came over in the morning.
He insisted on taking her with him.
It’s a good thing I didn’t come in the morning, otherwise I would have vomited to death seeing Xu Yiyi’s glorious look.
But it’s not feeling good now.
"If that's what you want to say, then I tell you, I'm really proud of it."
Xu Yiyi smiled, and Li Xiuying's words did not affect her good mood for the day.
After all, after counting the money just now, both the lunch and dinner groups made a lot of money.
"I earn money with my own hands and feet. Why shouldn't I be proud of it?"
Xu Yiyi looked at her in confusion, and Li Xiuying was immediately angered by her words.
"It's not what a good woman should do to not stay at home."
Li Xiuying glared at Xu Yiyi.
"If you insist on saying that, I have nothing to say. You should keep the good woman to yourself. You're getting married at the end of the year, right? Stay at home and take care of your husband and children."
Xu Yiyi looked at her very sincerely, but Li Xiuying felt that Xu Yiyi was mocking her.
"You... are simply unreasonable..."
Li Xiuying looked at Xu Yiyi with disgust.
"I'm very happy today. Even if you don't like me, you have to hold it in. Otherwise, I don't mind tearing my face off with you."
Just as I was about to speak, the people in the lobby came to the backyard.
"What are you talking about? Go eat quickly so you can go home early."
Xu Yiyi saw Aunt Li coming over with a loud voice.
Li Xiuying instantly became intimidated, glanced at Xu Yiyi, and returned to the lobby angrily.
……
After eating and drinking, the aunts helped Xu Yiyi and others clean the restaurant and wash the bowls, chopsticks and plates.
Only Lao Lu was left inside to keep watch.
Everyone else went to the pier to catch the boat back to the island.
"Can we leave Lao Lu alone? He seems quite old. If he falls into a deep sleep, he won't even know someone is causing trouble at the restaurant."
Uncle Li helped Xu Yiyi push the boat into the water.
He turned around and got on his own boat.
"Uncle Shunan, you don't know that Lao Lu is good at martial arts and is very capable. Even though he is old, he can still fight ten people at once. No one can cause trouble for the restaurant."
Xu Anyang shouted at the top of his voice, and Xu Yiyi nodded.
"That's true."
Uncle Li rowed the boat out with satisfaction.
Xu Yiyi hung lanterns on the bow and stern of the boat and followed him out of the dock.
……
"Yi Yi! Is it always this dark when you return to the island every night? The sea is so pitch black, it's really scary to look at!"
An aunt poked her head out from a distance.
It's not hard to hear the hint of fear in her words.
"It takes less than a cup of tea to get back to the island from the dock. There are no reefs in the waters between the two places, so there's no worry of running aground. Just don't stare at the water all the time."
Xu Yiyi replied.
Others started talking.
Most of them said that Xu Yiyi was brave.
Traveling at night is actually very dangerous because the visibility is too low and you can't see the conditions of the sea clearly.
It is also easy to deviate and go to other places.
Fortunately, the pier and the island are relatively close, and after so many trips back and forth, Xu Yiyi has become familiar with the route.
It was late at night, but Ping'an Town behind the boat was still bustling with activity.
Back on the island, it was peaceful.
On days other than high tide, few people go out to the beach at night.
Looking around, there were only a few houses with flashes of light, and the whole place was pitch black.
The sound of crashing waves is in my ears.
Xu Anyang carried Sihai home before leaving.
In the evening, my uncle and aunt boiled water for them before going to town.
Now pour in the water, it’s not too hot, add a little cold water.
It's warm and very comfortable to wash.
Sihai was stripped naked by Sanchuan and sat in a large wooden tub in the yard, humming from time to time.
"Si Hai, don't go to bed yet. If you don't wash yourself clean, I won't let you sleep in my bed tonight."
Sanchuan said in a half-threatening tone.
After hearing this, Sihai moved a little, as if forcing a duck to do something.
In the end, it was Sanchuan who helped wash the child, and the naked child stood up from the wooden basin.
He was carried back to the room by his brother.
"Help Sihai put on some clothes, or you'll catch a cold at night."
……
"I know, big sister."
Sanchuan's voice came from the room, but it was not very clear.
Wu Yuan was carried back to the room by Xu Yiyi.
By the time she finished her shower, the children were already asleep.
When Xu Yiyi entered the room, Wu Yuan woke up again and lay on the bed holding his little hands.
Looks very sleepy.
When he saw Xu Yiyi coming in, his eyes, which were originally narrowed into slits, opened again.
He took one look before falling into a deep sleep.
Xu Yiyi walked over, bent down and kissed the child on the face, then lay back on the bed.
Wu Yuan automatically nestled into her arms.
The sound of waves in my ears was muffled and blocked outside the door.
Until the sky brightens.
……
"Sister, this dairy sheep doesn't have much milk left."
Sanchuan squatted in front of the dairy sheep in a daze, looking at the goat's milk which was half less than before.
I can't help but feel a little worried. If one day I stop producing milk, Wu Yuan will starve.
Xu Yiyi thought about it and thought that the milk production period of this dairy sheep was probably about the same time.
She wasn't sure either.
"It's okay. I'll drink it as long as I can. We have money now, so we can buy more."
Although it’s not easy to buy.
"Sister Yiyi, I'm coming in."
Xu Anyang shouted at the door, then pushed it open and came in.
"Are you going to make milk for Wu Yuan? Let me do it."
Xu Anyang is now a man with a keen eye. Xu Yiyi had a formal talk with him before the restaurant opened.
From now on, he will also receive wages every month.
In this way, I work harder.
"Brother Anyang, please help me clean these oysters and shrimps. We have to set up the stall after breakfast."
Er'er came out of the room and found that Aunt A Cui had brought fresh oysters and shrimps early this morning.
It was probably still dark at that time.
Xu Anyang peeled the shrimp shells one by one with a knife and saw Sihai sitting beside him looking depressed.
Xu Yiyi carried Wu Yuan to wash his face.
"Si Hai, if you didn't sleep well, go back to your room and sleep for a while. Get up after breakfast is ready."
She fished a fish out of the pond and prepared to make fish porridge.
Another person boils an egg.
Eat something simple in the morning.
When Sihai heard this, he stood up and lay behind her, his head feeling dizzy.
Xu Yiyi carried the baby back into the house.
When he came out, Sanchuan was already blowing the cooked goat milk with a fan, and Wuyuan was lying in a small basket, waiting eagerly.
As soon as the sun came out, Xu Yiyi rushed to the dock with a few children.
At that time, the dock was also bustling with people coming and going.
