Chapter 135: News From Awang
She didn’t plan to bring her unlucky fourth brother along either.
He still had to stay here to work; he couldn’t leave even if he wanted to.
Thank you for your hard work, Fourth Brother; your sister will remember you.
Old Mu watched helplessly as Yun Jiao ran away, and she took a cat and a dog with her.
Old Man Mu: “…”
“Does it taste that bad?”
He took a big bite himself: “Although it’s indeed not as delicious as what your Grandma makes, my cooking is still passable, right?”
They had been getting by like this for so many years; as long as it didn’t poison people, it was fine.
Yun Chenbei quietly ate his rice.
Next time, he should bring food home for his Master; he really didn’t want to taste his Master’s cooking anymore.
Meanwhile, Yun Jiao ran home in a flash.
Seeing Yun Grandma busy in the kitchen, she was filled with tears of joy.
“Grandma.”
Yun Grandma: “You’re back, why do you look so wronged?”
Yun Jiao shook her head: “No, I just missed Grandma’s cooking.”
“Grandma’s cooking is the most delicious.”
Especially after the comparison.
“What a sweet mouth you have, go call your Grandpa and Dad, we’re preparing to eat.”
While speaking, Yun Grandma also put a fragrant fish ball into Yun Jiao’s mouth.
Yun Jiao’s cheeks immediately puffed up roundly.
Delicious, delicious, this is food that people can eat.
Yun Jiao ran to call Grandpa, Dad, and her brothers.
Father Yun held Yun Jiao in his arms.
“Let’s go, we’ll go to A’wang’s house first.”
Yun Jiao nodded: “Are we going to get money?”
Father Yun nodded: “He didn’t have that much money the day before yesterday, so he gave us a receipt.”
The day before yesterday, their boatload of goods sold for 254 yuan.
That Giant Grouper alone was 3 yuan per jin, and twenty-three jin sold for 69 yuan.
A’wang had purchased a batch of goods before them and didn’t have enough cash on hand.
Upon arriving at Yun Wang’s purchase point, he was moving seafood.
“Brother Lin Hai, you’re here, and Jiaojiao is here too.”
Yun Jiao, held by Yun Linhai, obediently called him Uncle A’wang.
“Brother Lin Hai, this is the money for you.”
Yun Linhai nodded and handed over the receipt as well.
After chatting for a while, Yun Wang suddenly said, “Brother Lin Hai, do you know about the Dayun Restaurant in our town?”
Yun Linhai nodded; of course, he knew. Dayun Restaurant was the largest restaurant in their town.
“The person who came here before and collected your sea snails is the young owner of Dayun Restaurant. The restaurant in our town is just one of their branches; they have an even bigger one in the city.
Next Monday, they are holding a banquet and need a lot of rare seafood, preferably large Spiny Lobsters and Suhmei fish. The more expensive and rarer, the better.
The prices will be much higher than usual. If you have the ability, get some and sell it directly at Dayun Restaurant; you’ll definitely make a fortune.”
Yun Jiao, lying in her father’s arms, perked up her ears.
Yun Linhai nodded: “Okay, I’ll remember it.”
He also pushed back a certain restless, fluffy little head.
After leaving Yun Wang’s place, Yun Jiao couldn’t wait: “Dad, Dad, let’s go to sea to catch fish.”
If nothing else, she was sure she could catch a big Spiny Lobster.
Making money, making money.
Yun Linhai patted her head: “We’ll discuss it with Grandpa and the others when we get home.”
Yun Jiao said “Oh,” but the little calculations in her heart didn’t stop.
After returning home, Yun Linhai told everyone in the family about the matter at the dining table.
Yun Grandma and the others looked at Yun Jiao first.
“No adventuring!”
It was clear that the whole family knew Yun Jiao’s personality.
Yun Jiao was very unhappy, puffing out her little cheeks like a plump white bun.
“What did I do? I’m not adventuring.”
Yun Linhai: “After we go out to sea, if the Orca comes, you can go. If the Orca doesn’t come, you’re not allowed to go into the sea.”
They all treated the Orca as Yun Jiao’s bodyguard.
“We’ve troubled those Orcas so much for so long; I wonder what they like and if we have anything to give them.”
Although they were animals, the Yun family also thought about reciprocity.
They had troubled the Orcas so much to protect Jiaojiao in the sea, and it felt wrong not to give them something.
Yun Jiao: “They really like that ball.”
“Didn’t we give them two?”
Yun Jiao: “One broke, and one got lost.”
So, both balls were gone.
“The wooden ball often gets soaked in water, so it won’t last; it spoils quickly.”
Yun Xiaowu suddenly shouted: “Basketball, basketball is good!”
Looking at his expression, it was clear he didn’t want to give it to the Orcas; he wanted to play with it himself.
A basketball also cost several yuan.
“A rubber ball would also work.”
Wang Mei: “It’s not like they’re buying it for you, why are you all clamoring?”
“We can buy an extra one.”
Their selfish intentions were obvious.
Hehe…
“Are you tired of playing with those toy cars and toy pistols?”
Yun Xiaowu smacked his lips: “Not really, but who dislikes having more toys, right?”
After he finished speaking, he received a few blows to the back of his head.
Yun Xiaowu looked at his mother resentfully; if she wasn’t his biological mother, she wouldn’t hit him so hard!
Although Yun Xiaowu and the others had their own selfish motives, they also gave everyone an idea.
They still needed to buy balls.
Those Orcas had protected Jiaojiao for so long; although a few balls were a bit expensive, they were willing to spend the money.
There were still three days until next Monday. As long as it didn’t rain on Saturday and Sunday and the weather was good, they could go out to sea to catch seafood.
In the afternoon, Yun Linhe and the others returned.
They also brought back meat buns and fried dough twists, food that Yun Jiao liked.
The children cheered, and the meat buns were gone quickly, one for each child.
“Fan!”
Seeing the brand new electric fan, the whole family cheered.
They eagerly looked for an outlet and plugged it in.
It was a low-profile electric fan with three speed settings, and they tried them all.
The third speed was the most comfortable, and everyone in the family could feel the breeze.
The children gathered around the fan, letting the strong wind make it difficult for them to breathe, yet none of them left happily.
Yun Jiao’s hair was blown wildly, and she squinted her eyes, her face beaming.
“This head can even swing back and forth.”
“It’s so cool, hahaha…”
“Our family has an electric fan now. There are only three families in the entire village with electric fans, so we’re the fourth. And ours is new.”
Yun Grandma shooed away the few little ones who were too close.
“Go, go, why are you all crowding so close? If you catch a cold, you’ll regret it.”
Yun Xiaowu: “We won’t catch a cold; it’s so hot, it feels comfortable to blow on.”
“Dad, we have an electric fan now, when will we have a freezer? I want to eat popsicles.”
Yun Linhai scowled: “I think you want to eat a wooden stick!”
They just got an electric fan and now they’re dreaming of a freezer; this stinky kid really needs a spanking.
“Third Brother, let me see your glasses, let me try them on.”
After being driven away, they surrounded Yun Chennan again.
Looking at the glasses on Yun Chennan’s nose, they were all extremely curious.
Wearing glasses, Yun Chennan looked a little different.
He looked even more refined and handsome, like a scholar.
Yun Chennan refused; these glasses cost 150 yuan. What if his younger brothers, being clumsy, broke them?
