Ye Jianqiu

No matter if Ye Wanzhen was crying or fussing, angry or laughing, Ye Jianqiu would not be moved by it.

Ye Wanzhen saw Ye Jianqiu sitting on the kang as steadily as a mountain, with her arms folded calmly, her expression calm and her eyes calm.She couldn't help but grit her teeth with hatred. She hated that Ye Dashi was as full of official words as she was, and even more hated that he was neatly dressed and exuded a faint pleasant fragrance. Very deep upbringing and elegance!Mrs. Zhen said that she has poetry and books in her belly, but what books has this Ye Xiaoxiao read? !Isn't she a poor person from the countryside like her?Could it be that he can also be a nobleman when he is a servant?

For the first time, she had a desire to conquer, but she was powerless and had nowhere to strike, like a fist no matter how hard it was, but was hit in the cotton pile, making people useless and helpless.She understood that this size is by no means as easy to control as Yin Shitou.

Ye Wanzhen gave up temporarily, she sat at the table with a cold face and stopped talking.Yin Shitou felt strange, why did this sister-in-law lose her face again?Could it be that I ate too much again?He slowed down his meal uneasily.On the other hand, Niu Shi lowered his head, his eyes fixed on Yin Shishi's chopsticks, and when he saw him stretching the chopsticks towards her favorite dish, Niu couldn't help plopping his lips long Exhale, as if the air blown out can blow Yin Shishi's chopsticks away!Because the meal at noon was very oily, Niu kept drinking water. She picked up the water bowl and kept her eyes on Yin Shishi's chopsticks while drinking. Her eyes turned back and forth from time to time following the movements of his chopsticks.

Ye Shuan, who had eaten and drank enough for a long time, fell asleep heartlessly on the kang, making a slight annoyance.But the old man hit the ground with his cane angrily, Niu slapped his head, she forgot about the old man!Usually it is Da Niu Ye who cooks for the old man, but today Da Niu was so angry that she ran home, so she had to do it herself.

Niu took out a large black rough porcelain bowl dissatisfied, poured some leftovers from the bottom of the plate into it, then went to the stove, poured a large spoonful of hot water, mixed it with grain powder, and served it old man.Since there was vegetable soup in the bowl today, the old man was very happy to eat it, Hulu Hulu quickly ate it up, and he skillfully scraped the bottom of the bowl with his fingers before handing the bowl to Niu who was standing aside.Niu pursed his lips, and put the clean bowl that didn't need to be brushed back into the bowl basket.

Finally, when Yin Shitou had finished his extremely difficult meal, Ye Jianqiu said, "Shitou, take brother to your house."

After speaking, get up and leave.

Seeing Ye Jianqiu striding away, Ye Wanzhen couldn't help chasing out the door and shouting loudly: "Brother, you still have to worry about my tuition fee, the whole family is counting on you! Without the tuition fee, I have to go home and continue farming. landed!"

"I'll think about it before I say it!"

Yin Shitou, who followed behind, nodded to his sister-in-law with a blushing face, and hurriedly left with Ye Jianqiu.

Ye Wanzhen sneered, she knew that if he couldn't make it down to this size, he would be cruel to say it to death. It seems that the situation is very optimistic, and some money can be squeezed out of him!

All the way without words, Yin Shitou brought Ye Jianqiu to his small cave house at the foot of the rock and stopped. He said embarrassedly: "Brother, this is it."

I saw that this burrowed house was very dilapidated, and the door was so small that you could only get in with your waist bent. Moreover, the door was not a wooden door, but was actually made of corn stalks bundled into thick rows.As soon as Yin Shitou lifted the straw door, debris and foam squeaked and rustled down.

It's very cold here at night, how can this door block the cold wind?

"Stone, is it cold at night?"

"It's cold, it would be better to burn more charcoal."

"Are there any beasts here at night? This door doesn't look solid."

"There are beasts, I can often hear their calls at night, don't be afraid! Just burn more charcoal!"

Ye Jianqiu sighed in his heart, he felt sorry for these two children who depended on each other, if there was no charcoal, they would have frozen to death long ago.

Yin Shitou rushed into the room and shouted: "Big girl, our brother is here! Get up!"

After hearing a rustle in the room, the big girl's voice came out: "Brother, come in and sit down."

Yin Shitou and Ye Jianqiu bent down and entered the bridal chamber.

As soon as he entered the bridal chamber of Ye Daniu's house, Ye Jianqiu immediately felt that the light was much brighter, and the room was very bright.He looked around strangely, and it turned out that the cave house was not strong, not only was it ventilated from all sides, but also leaked sand and soil into the house from time to time.Those bright lights are refracted in from the cracks in the stone, so the light is abundant.Fortunately, there is no rain in this place. If it rains, this room will be miserable!

Ye Jianqiu sat on the kang of Ye Daniu's house with a lot of thoughts, looking at this dilapidated house than Ye Dashan's house, he was so sad that he couldn't speak.Yin Shitou and Ye Daniu both stood in front of Ye Jianqiu, looking at the ugly elder brother, both of them were very nervous.

Ye Jianqiu finally said: "Big girl, this house looks very fragile, and there is a strong wind at night, what if a stone falls and hits someone?"

Ye Daniu persuaded: "Brother, it's okay. I've never dropped a stone, but it's sturdy! It's just that there is too much sand and soil, and I can sweep several dustpans every day."

"All the food in the family was given to my mother's family. What do you eat?"

"The wheat harvest is coming soon, don't be afraid..."

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid! How do you live like this? If you have children in the future, how will you support them?"

Ye Jianqiu stood up abruptly, his face flushed with anger, looking at the angry elder brother, Yin Shitou was frightened to protect the eldest girl, and the two couldn't help but retreat a few steps.

Da Niu Ye hid behind Yin Shitou, clutching the corner of her husband's clothes tightly, crying softly: "Brother, I can't help it, if I don't give food, just the mouth of that second girl can kill me !"

"Let her talk! Are you still afraid that she will fail?"

"Brother, you can't understand it outside, and those gossips can't hurt you. But I'm sad at home, that second girl's mouth is so dead that anyone can talk, if I don't obey, she will let me and Shitou live in the village. I can't hold my head up and be a human being!"

Ye Jianqiu sighed for a long time, there was no way, the ancients valued filial piety, and no one could escape if this big hat of unfilial piety was pressed against him, even he was tortured by Ye Dashan and stretched out his hands again and again.This Ye Dashan is actually very smart. He not only divides his children into three, six, and nine grades, but also clearly distinguishes between relatives and relatives!He does not treat children as independent individuals, but as his own private property.

"Then Ye Erniu's tuition is really that much?"

Hearing the elder brother's words, Ye Daniu finally came out from behind the silent Yin Shitou, she said timidly: "Brother, I only heard that Miss Zhen doesn't charge any tuition fees, and apprentices only use leftovers to practice, and don't need to make a piece of it." My new silk and satin training hands..."

Ye Jianqiu took out a bag from his bosom, and solemnly handed it to Da Niu Ye: "Da Niu, here are ten taels of silver, you can put it safely."

Da Niu Ye was too frightened to take it: "Brother, why do you give me so much money? If you want to give Da Niu something, I will just bring some melons and fruits, Da Niu likes to eat."

"Take it!" Ye Jianqiu couldn't help but stuff the money into the big girl's hand.

"Here's the money, tidy up this house, if it's not good enough to buy a new one, don't worry about living here! There are also clothes, you and Shi Shi go to buy some cotton cloth to wear, the leather is too hot..."

"Brother..." Ye Daniu began to cry again, and even Yin Shitou turned his back and quietly wiped away his tears.

"Brother, it won't work. I don't dare to repair the house, let alone buy a new house. If Er Niu knows that I have money, she will try to make me pour out all the money!"

"how so!"

Ye Jianqiu clenched his fists.

"Brother! Ye Shuan's big business has not been done yet, and the family is planning to buy him a house in the town. He will marry a wife in the future, and he also wants to do business to make money. If I let them know about the money, I won't be able to let it go... ..."

"Then can you come out of Xitu'er Village to work in Qingyang Town? These ten taels are enough to start a small business."

"Brother, it won't work. Even if they go to Qingyang Town, they will find me. At that time, they will have to work for nothing. Besides, Shitou and I don't know how to do business, and we don't have the skills. If we go far away, we will be afraid and dare not run around... ..."

Poor people must have something to hate, Ye Jianqiu hates that he has no strength to protect Ye Da Niu and his wife, and even more hates that Yin Shitou has no heart, and sooner or later he will be tricked to death if he does business!

Ye Jianqiu had never been so worried before, Da Niu Ye quietly put the money back into Ye Jianqiu's hand and said, "Brother, I have accepted your wish, and Shitou and I will farm the land honestly at home. When you are in trouble, it will not be too late to find Big Brother."

"Take it, don't give way to brother."

"Brother, if the door of this house is broken, there will definitely be thieves coming in, and mother...and mother often comes to the house to rummage, this money can't be kept..."

Ye Jianqiu felt a little dizzy and his mind was in a mess.He lay helplessly on the dilapidated kang of Ye Daniu's house, covering his aching forehead with his hands.Yin Shitou panicked, he hurried forward and covered Ye Jianqiu with a leather mattress, and the big girl hurried to boil water... Ye Jianqiu closed his eyes and lay silent for a long time.

He missed Situ Jin very much.

Niu, who was lying outside the door with her ass pouted, put her ear to the door and eavesdropped quietly for a long time, her face turned pale with anger. She stomped her feet hard, spat, and went back in resentment.
