I am doing well in the Siheyuan

Hearing Ning Wei's assurance and looking at his determined eyes, Ye Ming nodded and said, "Okay, I hope you can keep your word."

"Brother Ye Ming, I can definitely do it." Ning Wei answered firmly.

After arranging Ning Wei's affairs, Ye Ming turned to Zhong Yuemin, Zhang Haiyang and others and proposed: "Brothers, I have a suggestion, do you want to hear it?"

Zhong Yuemin, Zhang Haiyang, Yuan Jun, Zheng Tong and others immediately responded: "Ye Ming, if you have any suggestions, please feel free to tell us. We are all ears."

"That's right, Ye Ming, go ahead."

Ye Ming pursed his lips slightly and continued, "I suggest that you use the 400 yuan hard work fee to buy some antiques and then preserve them properly."

"Within twenty years, the value of these antiques will be at least several dozen times higher."

Zhong Yuemin, Zhang Haiyang and others are all friends that Ye Ming trusts, so he decided to give them some advice and help them make some money.

Of course, Ye Ming was just giving advice, and it was up to them whether to listen or not. After all, everyone has their own ideas, and they can't be forced.

The opportunity has been given, it depends on how Zhong Yuemin and others choose.

After hearing what Ye Ming said, Zhong Yuemin, Zhang Haiyang and Yuan Jun began to think. Zheng Tong spoke without hesitation: "Ye Ming, while I was helping you collect antiques, I also collected a few of my own."

"Since you said so, I'll exchange all the four hundred dollars for antiques."

After Zheng Tong finished speaking, Zhong Yuemin also spoke.

"Ye Ming, I agree with you. If I invest this money in antiques, I don't expect it to appreciate dozens of times in value in 20 years."

"As long as it doubles or triples, I will be satisfied."

After Zhong Yuemin and Zheng Tong expressed their views, Zhang Haiyang and Yuan Jun also said that they would follow Ye Ming's advice and exchange all the 400 yuan for antiques.

When Ye Ming heard their decision, he couldn't help but smile and said:

"Brothers, in a dozen years you will understand how wise your choice today was."

Among all the people present, no one knew better than Ye Ming how much the value of antiques that were neglected in this era would soar in the future.

If Zhong Yuemin, Zhang Haiyang and others followed Ye Ming's suggestion and bought antiques for 400 yuan, these antiques would be worth at least hundreds of thousands of yuan in 20 years.

Twenty years later, in the late 1980s, hundreds of thousands would undoubtedly be a huge fortune. If Ye Ming suggested that they use the money to buy a few properties in Beijing.

Then Zhong Yuemin, Zhang Haiyang and others don’t have to worry about their lives in this life.

Ye Ming always gives advice to friends who are sincere to him.

The topic has deviated a bit, so let’s go back to the living room of Ye Ming’s courtyard house.

After deciding to adopt Ye Ming's suggestion, Zhong Yuemin, Zhang Haiyang, Yuan Jun, Zheng Tong and others said hello to him and went out to collect antiques.

Ning Wei also left with Zhong Yuemin.

In the evening, Ye Ming returned to Long Shuhua's residence.

An hour later, Ye Ming and Old Lady Long were enjoying dinner.

At this time, the door was pushed open and Yi Zhonghai walked into the room.

Seeing Yi Zhonghai, Ye Ming put down his bowl and chopsticks and asked:

"Uncle, have you eaten yet?"

"If you haven't, let's eat some together."

Hearing Ye Ming's invitation, Yi Zhonghai shook his head and replied:

"Ye Ming, I've already eaten."

"I need to talk to you about something."

Upon hearing this, Ye Ming continued to ask:

"Uncle, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Yi Zhonghai replied:

"Ye Ming, Xu Damao and Qin Huairu are going to have their wedding at noon tomorrow. I would like to ask you to accompany me to their wedding."

Ye Ming was a little surprised when he heard this:

"Uncle, why do you want me to go with you?"

He knew the wedding date of Qin Huairu and Xu Damao, but he had made an appointment with Zhou Xiaobai to go to Swan Lake tomorrow, so he could not attend their wedding.

Yi Zhonghai immediately explained:

"It's like this, Ye Ming. I'm worried about what might happen to Qin Huairu and Xu Damao's wedding."

"Both Xu Damao and Qin Huairu's families are not easy to deal with. If there is a dispute at the wedding, I am afraid I will not be able to handle it alone."

"So I hope you can go with me. With you around, even if there's a conflict between the two families, you'll be able to calm it down."

After hearing Yi Zhonghai's explanation, Ye Ming nodded slightly and said:

"So that's it."

Then, Ye Ming thought for a few seconds and continued...

“Okay, Grandpa Yi, I will go with you to attend Qin Huairu and Xu Damao’s wedding tomorrow.”

Ye Ming agreed to Yi Zhonghai's invitation not because he wanted to keep the peace for him, but out of curiosity to watch the fun.

He had already decided that even if there was a conflict between Qin Huairu and Xu Damao's families at the wedding, he would not intervene.

This time, Ye Ming just wanted to be a quiet bystander.

Ye Ming actively promoted the marriage of Xu Damao and Qin Huairu just to watch the fun. Since there was such an opportunity, he naturally did not want to miss it.

When Yi Zhonghai saw Ye Ming agreed, he couldn't help but feel relieved.

"Okay, Ye Ming, it's settled then."

After hearing this, Ye Ming responded.

"it is good."

Then, Yi Zhonghai chatted with Ye Ming for a while, said goodbye to Old Mrs. Long, and left.

Yi Zhonghai, who was leaving, certainly didn't know that Ye Ming agreed to attend the wedding with him not to help calm the situation, but to watch the fun. If he knew the truth, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood.

Well, that's certainly the case.

After Yi Zhonghai left, Old Lady Long said to Ye Ming on the bed:

"My dear grandson, when you go to the wedding tomorrow, don't mind your own business."

"Xu Damao's family and Qin Huairu's family are not easy to deal with."

Ye Ming listened to Long Shuhua's words and replied:

"I understand, grandma. Don't worry, I won't meddle in your business."

Even if Long Shuhua didn't say anything, Ye Ming wouldn't care about the affairs of the Xu family and Qin Huairu's family. He just wanted to be a spectator quietly.

After hearing Ye Ming's answer, Long Shuhua nodded.

Afterwards, Ye Ming chatted with Old Lady Long for a while, then went to wash up and rest.

The next morning, after breakfast, Ye Ming walked out of the house and rode his bicycle to find Zhou Xiaobai. Twenty minutes later, he arrived at Zhou Xiaobai's door.

After parking his bicycle, Ye Ming walked through the quiet courtyard and came to Zhou Xiaobai's living room. At this moment, Zhou Xiaobai, who was sitting on the sofa waiting, saw Ye Ming and couldn't help but flash a glimmer of joy in his eyes.

The next moment, Zhou Xiaobai stood up, walked quickly to Ye Ming's side, and said softly:

"Ye Ming, you are here."

Ye Ming heard this and nodded in response:

"Well, here we come."

"Xiaobai, aren't your uncle and aunt at home?"

Zhou Xiaobai heard this and said:

"My dad went to a meeting at the military district, and my mom is on a business trip. They are not at home."

After hearing this, Ye Ming said:

"So that's how it is. No wonder I didn't see my uncle and aunt."

"By the way, Xiaobai, I can't accompany you to Swan Lake today."

"Someone in our compound is getting married today, and I have to attend the wedding."

When Zhou Xiaobai heard this, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

However, despite the loss, Zhou Xiaobai still said sensibly:

"It's okay, Ye Ming, you can go to the wedding."

"Let's go to Swan Lake next Sunday."
