As Shui Sanniang ate, she thought about it and said, "I remember that there was a bottle of Four Seasons Glaze's Red Revolving Heart Bottle at home. That one should be good as a gift; two more Chabu should be enough."
The second brother nodded, "Add another jar of wine. I remember that there is still a jar of Luzhou's old cellar at home."
The couple discussed as they ate, wanting to settle the matter.
Ye Wen, however, stood up awkwardly. The others all stopped eating and talking and raised their heads to look at her in surprise.
Qi Shuang lowered his head with a blush, tears rolling down his cheeks. He rubbed the corners of his clothes, feeling uneasy. "Father, mother, I'm sorry, I …"
"I …" Even after a long time, he still could not finish his sentence. She had already been married for a few months, and the Ye family more or less understood her. So even if she didn't say it out loud, everyone else understood: she had secretly taken her in-laws' belongings to help her in-laws.
Ye second brother tried his best to hold it in and sighed heavily. What was going on? Married a thief to the house?
Originally, this wasn't considered a worry, but since his daughter-in-law was young and inexperienced, it would be better to slowly teach her. However, the worry was that his family wasn't good enough!
I don't know how she got into that temper of hers, but before you even said anything, she looked like a frightened little quail. With just a simple mention of her personality, she would immediately cry, unable to stop herself from crying. It was completely tofu falling into the pile of ashes. It couldn't be slapped, much less beaten! His heart was thumping!
With such a daughter-in-law, how would she live her life in the future?
Thinking about this, no matter how delicious the ordinary food in front of him was, and how considerate he was in ironing his lungs, Ye Lao San was no longer in the mood to slowly savor it.
It's fine for laozi to not be annoyed when laozi can't see, right?
Shui Sanniang glanced at her daughter-in-law but did not say anything. She put down her bowl and said to her eldest son, Ye Jiayan, "Come find me in the backyard after eating. I have something to tell you."
Ye Jiayan watched his mother's back gradually disappear around the corner, then looked at the silent Ye Jiaxing and his sister-in-law who were staring at him with wide eyes. "Oh, I'm crying again, I don't know what to do," his little sister Ye Zimu sighed and pulled Qi Shuang down to sit down. "Eat first. We'll talk about this after the meal."
Seeing Qi Shuang trembling in fear, he knew that she wouldn't be able to eat anymore, so he sent her back to her room and went to the backyard.
Ye Zimu looked at his second brother and thought about how he had repeatedly taught "gentleman far away from the kitchen". He dutifully cleaned up the dishes and carried them to the kitchen to clean.
Ye Jiaxing: Who said that a woman is virtuous? Look, people who read books are different.
Mencius: Pah pah pah! Nonsense! This is not how I explained it!
He had achieved unprecedented success in his sister's education. Ye Jiaxing expressed his satisfaction. He walked to the backyard with his hands behind his back and sat down under the eaves, listening to the mother and son conversation in the yard.
He only heard Shui Sanniang say, "It's really not good for the two of us to say too much. Your wife has gone too far this time. As the saying goes, a former godson had a wife behind his back. In private, you should talk about her. Since she's already married, eating with the Ye Family's food and carrying the Ye Family's bowl, she shouldn't be always turning her head towards her mother's house. It would be fine if it was just one or two times, but I'm not that mean mother-in-law. The problem is that she doesn't know how to restrain herself. What are you taking home with you that you don't even bother greeting her! What kind of words are those? "
Ye Jiayan was a little angry, "Mother! Why do you say that? It's not like you don't know what kind of family the Qi family is? What's wrong with us helping her a little bit? Isn't it just two pieces of rag a jar of wine? How much is it worth? Was this worth arguing over? Is the family not kind? "
Seeing the look of disbelief on Shui Sanniang's face, her voice became slightly softer, but her words were still clear, "If you really want to care, I have worked for my family all these years without any merits or hard work, and I did not even take a single cent of the money. "Aren't these deducted from my wages?"
He walked out and dragged the angry Shui Sanniang, who had tears in her eyes, over. He patted his mother's back, and comforted her as he shouted at his big brother, "You are just a cloth bag. You are just a puppet, you can move wherever your wife points at you. "Can you wake up a bit and be a bit of a right or wrong?!
"Father, mother, please keep your face a secret from the public. I am not afraid of losing face! If your wife does this today, I can definitely inform the officials to arrest the thief! "Think about it carefully!"
Without waiting for Ye Jiayan's response, he pulled Shui Sanniang away. He pulled his mother to the main house and wiped her tears with the back of his hand. He comforted her gently, "Mother, once we enter the house, we will split up. You all will follow me. It's simple, I won't do this, I won't embarrass you two. "
Shui Sanniang smiled with tears in her eyes, "Good child, don't say it like that. Even if the branch family split up, it would be impossible for us to follow you." Other families followed the eldest son and his descendants, how could they follow their youngest son? We're going to follow you. Your big brother will be laughed at by the neighbors. "
"Mother!" Ye Jiaxing almost went mad, "He already said that, yet you still protect him!"
Shui Sanniang's tone was flat but determined, "Who asked me to be his mother? If I don't think for him, who would still care about him?"
Looking at her youngest son, Shui Sanniang was extremely pleased. "Not bad, Mother still has you and your sister!"
"..."
He couldn't let go of the matters at home. He had to rush to the capital to take the exam, but he couldn't delay any longer.
The next morning, Ye Jiaxing and a few of his classmates got on the boat. They said their goodbyes and left for the capital.
For a fiancé to take the exam, no matter how shy she was, she would still send her off.
After watching Ye Jiaxing's boat disappear into the horizon, the family reluctantly turned back.
Shui Sanniang secretly wiped away her tears. "Second Brother has never left home before. He has never left me …"
Qi Shuang waved his hands and followed behind his mother-in-law, not showing the slightest intention of going up to comfort her. It was still the second Ye, who patted his wife's back and walked back slowly with her. Silent expression of understanding and relief in one's own way.
Ye Zimu held Hua Li's hand and walked at the back, murmuring to himself in an attempt to get a better understanding of his sister-in-law's thoughts.
Her two eyes sparkled as she rolled around, trying to find the words out of her mouth, "Sister Dan Dan, my second brother is too unromantic. Last night, I told him to come and say goodbye to you, he said I had nothing to do! Fortunately, a blockhead like him has a sister who wants him. Otherwise, he would only be able to live a single life! "
Hua simply heard the words "goodbye", "amorous" and "want"... These words immediately caused his face to turn red. Even his ears were about to bleed.
Why didn't that bastard say goodbye? How else could he say goodbye? Pressing a kiss on the wall again?! What "I can't wait to marry you back to your family and do whatever I want"? What "I need you at least three times a night"? What "Is this farewell okay?" "Do you like it …" Such shameful words? This bastard!
She thought about how that person had pretended to be a decent person with all kinds of rogues pestering him behind his back. Then, she thought about how Ye Zimu, who was trying his best to pry open her mouth to listen to gossip, was feeling both embarrassed and angry. That bastard's sister, that bastard is also a little b * stard!
The more he thought about it, the more embarrassed he became. Hua Cheng pulled out his sleeve from Ye Zimo's hands and angrily said, "Hmph! "A hooligan will sooner or later chop off his hoof!"
As soon as his voice fell, he exclaimed, "Aiya!" Oh my god, what did she say?
He didn't even dare to look at Ye Zimu anymore. He lifted his skirt and ran away as if there was a dog chasing him.
Ye Wen stood blankly on the spot. He remained in the same position as he extended his hand to grab the person, and did not recover from his shock for a long time.
How strange, it was just bidding farewell, why did he chop off his hand? What did you do, second brother?
