"Oh, look at you two, you are all playing together. What is your father doing? He is sitting there and doesn't care about you. You just put on clean clothes in the morning. It has only been half a day. You have been playing with water or dirt all day long. In the blink of an eye, you are gone.

See, it’s so scary..."

"Dad told us to dig up insects..."

"Dig him, sit there and send you to dig up earthworms..."

"I need to feed the mother chicken..."

"Mother Chicken is hungry..."

Two children's words sounded in turn, and Lin Xiuqing's voice kept scolding them.

Ye Yaodong sat up and said nonchalantly: "What's the big deal about playing in the mud? Just wash them off if they're dirty. They're not doing anything or running around."

"This is what you taught me. I will be with you every day."

"If you don't follow me, they will be the same every day. There is no difference. Just have fun."

He turned to the two children and said, "Really? Are you happy about how high you are? Are you happy?"

"Happy~Happy~"

"Hmm~"

"Mom, we caught a lot of insects and gave them to the mother hen."

"Go in and wash your hands, your face is covered with mud."

Ye Xiaoxi reached out and touched his face in confusion, and Pei Yu burst into laughter.

"They're even dirtier. Look at your hands. Can you touch your face with them?" Lin Xiuqing held her collar up in disgust and carried her into the house.

"Wait, wait, Chong Chong..."

Pei Yu immediately picked up the canned fish and followed.

When Ye Yaodong saw them passing the door, he sat up and took a look. There were a bunch of earthworms squirming densely in the can. The two children had a remarkable record. The can was so full that it looked like it was almost full.

"There are so many, are you not afraid anymore? Where are they all moving?"

"Don't be afraid, don't bite."

"Well, just leave it at the door. I'll wash my hands later and change my clothes before going out to play."

Pei Yu nodded obediently and put the can under his recliner.

Ye Yaodong also followed him into the house and told Lin Xiuqing that Secretary Chen had just come over to ask for donations.

"500!! So much!"

Her hand holding water trembled.

"Well, when I asked, I just said 500."

"You won't say 200. Let him calculate it by himself. If it's not enough, we can just add a little more. 500 is too much. If you add the village's donation, it's more than 1,300."

“The 6-day event will definitely cost a lot.”

"It's just that hiring a theater troupe is a bit expensive. How much can you spend on food and drink for You Shen? It only costs a little rice. The vegetables from the fields are not expensive, and the seafood at the pier is not expensive either."

"Don't worry about it, the difference is not much different. Normal maintenance of Mazu temple also requires some money, and some offerings such as incense, candles, and ingots are required. The offerings have to be replaced every day."

"Did you just come to our family to donate more?"

"I don't know, I don't know. It must be right? Who else in the village has the ability to donate money except me?"

"Are you still proud of yourself?"

"Instead of looking for others, you chose me. That's because I am rich and it is obvious to all. I should contribute some money to benefit the village."

Ye Yaodong is pretty good at enjoying himself.

Lin Xiuqing glanced at him, said nothing, and continued to fill the basin with water, "When do you want the money?"

"Tomorrow, I said they would play it on the radio in the afternoon."

"Oh, I got it."

"And it's my daughter's birthday today, why didn't you say anything?"

"What's there to say? It's not one year old, nor 10 or 20 years old. I thought you remembered it. You are usually so precious, but you don't remember my birthday either."

"I remember a few days ago that I had a thrilling experience yesterday, but I forgot about it for a while after I came back. I also forgot to look at the calendar today."

"She's so young, so she doesn't need to celebrate her birthday. Just fry her two poached eggs for lunch."

"That's it?"

"Otherwise, you have to set up ten tables and eight tables, right?"

"That's not the case. I have nothing to do in the afternoon. I will go to town to buy her a cake, soda and snacks."

"what ever."

When she finished filling the water, she turned around and saw that the two children were smearing mud on each other's faces and heads, laughing and running around the room, which almost made her angry.

"Come here, do you want to be whipped?"

"No, give it to my sister, I'll eat the chicken cake!"

Lin Xiuqing made her laugh, put the water on the ground, pinched her nose, "Don't be naughty, wash your hands quickly, or you'll give me a beating on my birthday."

Ye Xiaoxi also squatted down with a smile, put his hand in the basin and started playing with it. Now he could play with water openly.

Pei Yu also ran over and shouted in a sweet voice, "No whip."

"Wash your hands first and take a look at your shoes. They are all muddy. I even gave you small leather shoes to wear today..."

Ye Xiaoxi's wet hand reached out to her mother playfully and kept flicking the water droplets. After receiving a slap, the back of her hand turned red before she stopped, and she obediently rubbed her hands back and forth.

But after a while, the scar healed and the pain was forgotten. While his mother went to get a rag to wipe their hands, he and Pei Yu splashed and played in the water, splashing water all over the floor.

"I think you don't need chicken cakes anymore. Just eat whips."

"I'm good~"
