Parents are busy farming

Except for those few people who were sleeping soundly, everyone else ate in shifts.

The night shift was arranged in the same way. The thrilling crisis we experienced yesterday was like a basin of icy water that completely woke everyone up from their sweet dreams.

At this moment, even though Ye Zifen was guarding them, they couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

The ferocious faces of the robbers and the sharp blades flashing in their hands kept appearing in their minds. These scenes made them shudder and feel a lingering fear.

Ye Zifen seemed to be able to sense that they were not asleep, but she was really powerless to do anything about the torment and struggle deep in their hearts and could not bear it for them.

The only viable way is to rely on your own strength to overcome the fear.

Time passed by minute by minute, and after an unknown amount of time, everyone finally fell asleep one after another.

Their breathing gradually became steady and long, and Ye Zifen finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, she still did not dare to slack off at all, and remained where she was without moving even a step.

The next morning, when several women slowly woke up, their bodies seemed to be able to move again.

But strangely, their mood was still extremely heavy.

Thinking back to what happened last night, my heart was still shrouded in fear and anxiety. I just tried hard not to show my emotions and quietly got up to start my daily activities.

When the first rays of morning sunlight shone through the tent, they slowly woke up.

After opening their eyes, what came into view was Ye Zifen sitting quietly in the tent, as if she had not slept all night just to protect them.

Ye Lan couldn't help but feel touched, but at the same time she said with some self-blame: "Look at how little courage we have. We have already slowed down the caravan's progress because of us on the carriage, and now it has delayed the journey even more."

Ye Zifen smiled and consoled him, "Second Aunt, please don't say that. After all, you grew up in the border area, so your recovery will be much faster than that of ordinary people. We still have plenty of time for this trip, so as long as everyone is safe and sound, that's all."

In the past, Qingyin always stayed by Ye Lan's side, but at the moment, Qingyin's condition was far inferior to hers.

Helpless, Ye Lan had to force herself to cheer up and go visit her two grandsons.

She murmured to herself, "I'd better go check on the two kids. They've almost never left our side since they were little. I wonder how they were doing yesterday?"

Seeing that Ye Lan was able to move on her own, Ye Zifen said quickly, "Then please go to Zifang's tent, Second Aunt! Zifang and Meng'er were in charge of taking care of the children yesterday. I'll stay here for a while."

Ye Lan nodded slightly, then slowly walked out of the tent.

She moved forward slowly, and the events of yesterday kept emerging in her mind.

She used to be prejudiced against Meng'er, but now seeing that this girl is not only safe and sound but also able to take good care of the children, her heart, which had originally been firmly opposed, is now filled with an indescribable feeling of relief and relief - fortunately Zihong chose Meng'er!

When Ye Lan walked to the door of the tent, she did not rush in as usual, but stood quietly outside, listening attentively to the sounds coming from inside.

Ye Zifang's clear and firm voice rang out: "Older children should learn to dress themselves. After they are dressed, they can make their beds. Just restore them to the way they were when you first arrived last night, and then help your younger brothers and sisters complete their own tasks."

Hearing this, Ye Lan couldn't help but feel shocked...

Thinking back, her grandchildren had always been taken care of by herself or her eldest daughter-in-law, and she had never let them take care of anything on their own.

But now, these little guys are actually starting to try to do things on their own?

Do you even have to take care of younger siblings?

Full of doubts and curiosity, Ye Lan couldn't help but take a few steps forward, squinting her eyes and looking inside through the narrow gap in the tent.

As far as the sight reaches, Ye Zifang and Liu Meng'er are standing side by side, watching with gentle eyes those young children who are busy but seriously and attentively tidying themselves up.

Although their movements were a little slow, they eventually completed the task successfully.

Although the results are not perfect or neat and tidy, at least you can do it yourself. Isn't that worth affirming?

At this moment, she suddenly realized that she was no different from other grandmothers in the family, always pampering her grandchildren too much.

Fortunately, today Zifang and Meng'er gave her a wake-up call with practical actions.

It seems that after Qingyin's physical condition improves a little, she must find an opportunity to discuss with Qingyin the methods and strategies for raising her grandson in the future.

Looking back on the past, I have never been so cautious when treating my own son. How could I have expected that he has become so confused now, completely losing his former wisdom and clarity.

Ye Lan waited until the house was completely tidied before she stepped in.

Her adorable little grandson rushed to her like a cannonball and hugged her legs tightly.

The little one raised her pink face, which was filled with pride, and said in a baby voice, "Grandma, yesterday and today, we made our own beds and dressed ourselves! I also helped my younger brothers and sisters! All of this was ordered by Seventh Aunt. Seventh Aunt is very satisfied with our performance!"

After saying this, fearing that Ye Lan wouldn't believe him, he turned to look at Ye Zifang, who smiled and nodded in approval.

Then, he shifted his gaze back to Ye Lan.

Ye Lan praised with a smile on her face: "Oh my! My dear grandson, you are really worthy of being the apple of your eye. You can actually take such good care of yourself and your brothers and sisters! I am really pleased and happy from the bottom of my heart! When we get to the capital, I will definitely ask your clever fifth aunt to cook a sumptuous meal for you to reward you little smart guys!"

Hearing this, the children immediately cheered and said in unison: "Great! That's great!"

After all, for these little guys, nothing is more attractive than delicious food.

At this moment, with Ye Lan, an elder who made the children feel very close, by their side, they instantly became much more relaxed and happy, although they were originally a little restrained and uneasy.
