jade carver

Li Rui stayed with Cheng Ye for two days, and Cheng Ye's mood had settled down. Although he was still not energetic, he was much better than the previous few days.Grandma Cheng's grave is at the far west of the farm. It was buried with Grandpa Cheng who had gone earlier. There was an extra line of writing on the newly painted tombstone, and a person was taken away.

Li Rui supported Cheng Ye to watch it. Cheng Ye knelt there to burn paper money for Grandma Cheng, silently not knowing what he was thinking.After a long while, he finally said a word, "Grandma, I will have Brother Rui to accompany me from now on, don't worry." He kowtowed to the tombstone, raised his head again, his eyes were painfully astringent. "I want to be with him too..."

Accompanied by Li Rui, he squeezed Cheng Ye's hand and kowtowed to the tombstone.He didn't say a word, but his heart was firmer than before. Grandma Cheng left, and he would definitely make up for her, and treat Cheng Ye twice as well.He wanted to take care of Cheng Ye for the rest of his life.

Little aunt Xu Ying came from the provincial capital overnight after hearing the news.The weather was cold, and she covered her tightly. It looked like she hadn't recovered from the labor. "Mom, my daughter has come to see you. You have become a grandmother, and our family has added a little girl. Why, why can't you wait to see her..."

The little aunt was crying sadly, and the uncle on the side was afraid that she would hurt her body from crying, so he hurried forward to support her.

Xu Ying asked Cheng Ye and learned that she had sent a telegram to her second brother, so she had to wait a few more days to reunite with her brothers.The eldest daughter-in-law of Cheng concealed her selfishness, fearing that this powerful sister-in-law would stir things up, so she used words to run her down.He vaguely said that when Grandma Cheng was in mourning, Xu Ying didn't take any money, and the family couldn't afford it, so she didn't want her to stay.

"Bring me the account book, how much you spent, how much you bought, and we, the three brothers and sisters, will share it equally." Xu Ying said indifferently, and a few words stopped the mouth of Cheng's eldest daughter-in-law. "Don't worry, sister-in-law, as much as you want, I don't owe you a penny."

"It's a relationship, how can it be counted clearly..." Cheng's eldest daughter-in-law stopped talking. The good popularity accumulated by Grandma Cheng during her lifetime did not lose money this time, but she also lost some money.

Xu Ying didn't bother to talk to her. These days, she lived in Grandma Cheng's old house and didn't go to Boss Cheng's place.Something happened to Li Rui's family, and his uncle came to ask him to go to the city. Seeing his uncle's flustered expression, Li Rui didn't dare to delay, so he hurried away.Because Xu Ying was here, Li Rui felt relieved.

Xu Ying came here in a hurry this time, and it was cold in winter, so she didn't dare to bring her newborn child with her, so she only brought a few photos for Cheng Ye.The child in the photo is sleeping with his eyes closed, his chubby hands and feet are curled up, and his fleshy little face looks adorable.After Cheng Ye put away the photos, he felt that there was another little sister who was connected by blood, and his heart warmed up.

Grandma Cheng left, and Xu Ying was most worried about Cheng Ye. She heard what Cheng's eldest daughter-in-law meant, that she wanted Cheng Ye to drop out of school and go to a vocational high school, so that he could get a job as soon as possible after graduation in the past two years.This is also a way out, but if you choose, you can only stay on the farm for the rest of your life.Reluctantly, Xu Ying held Cheng Ye's hand and talked to him, "Cheng Ye, what are your plans for the future? Tell your aunt yourself."

"I want to learn jade carving from my master. Little aunt, you know that Master Xia is very kind and can teach me a lot." Cheng Ye seemed to have thought about it a long time ago, and slowly opened his mouth. "There are still two years in junior high school, and three years in high school. Even if you are admitted to university, you still have to go to four years. The time is too long, I don't want to go on, and I can learn the skills from the master, and I can eat it." meal."

Xu Ying was a little hesitant, she didn't expect Cheng Ye to bring it up first, "Cheng Ye, don't worry about tuition fees, these are not things that children should worry about. Just say, do you still want to study? Nod your head, little aunt I will definitely support you in going to college."

Cheng Ye was moved, but he still shook his head. He couldn't burden other people's families. "Little aunt, I really want to learn crafts from the master. The students in school are much better than me. I'm afraid I won't pass the exam. And I also like jade carvings. Shall I show you my carvings?"

Xu Ying replied suspiciously, and waited for Cheng Ye to come over with a small box in his hands. When he opened it, he saw a few small jade plaques carved inside, and his eyes widened in surprise.She touched it with her hands, and found that the patterns on it were delicate and exquisite, almost like those sold at the counters of big shopping malls. Even if she didn't know jade carving, she could tell that these were good things.

She looked at the jade carving and then at Cheng Ye, a little in disbelief, "You did all of this?"

Cheng Ye nodded, "Little aunt, I want to continue learning jade carving with my master. I like this."

Xu Ying is not a pedantic person. She was sent to other people's home for adoption since she was a child, and she suffered a lot. She also understands what Cheng Ye is doing now.They all eat other people's meals, and don't want to cause trouble for others.She carefully looked at the small jade plaque in the box, and after listening to Cheng Ye's explanation, she got a little understanding of jade carving.She couldn't bear Cheng Ye's hardship, so she persuaded him several times, and seeing that Cheng Ye had identified jade carving, she had to agree with him to continue learning the craft.

"It's okay to learn what you like, but you still have to go to school. Cheng Ye, you are a good boy, and my little aunt believes that you can learn your skills well." Xu Ying closed the box and returned it to him. "Going to school does not conflict with learning crafts. You are obedient and go to school. Auntie discusses with your uncle about the tuition fee. Didn't he agree to pay the tuition fee before? Auntie will pay you living expenses. If you insist on studying for a few years, no matter what You also have to read."

Cheng Ye lowered his head and nodded after a long time, "...Thank you little aunt."

Seeing the child like this, Xu Ying couldn't help feeling sad again.She felt sorry for Cheng Ye, and also felt sorry for her incompetence.She spends a lot of money in the provincial capital, and she has an in-law's family. She usually has some opinions on taking care of her adoptive mother's family.Now that I can count as one year, I can only hope that Cheng Ye will live up to it.

The second child of the Cheng family rushed over from the army at night. He brought his wife back and cried in front of his mother's grave.Seeing that they didn't bring their children back, Cheng's daughter-in-law asked too much.

Cheng Er's wife was a little embarrassed, "The child is small, far away and cold, I'm afraid it will freeze him..."

The eldest daughter-in-law of Cheng is not happy, "It's his grandma anyway, no matter how young he is, he should come back and take a look. Let's not talk about people with other surnames. It's really unreasonable not to come back with one surname... You see, my girl and boy are in their third year of high school. Didn't you also ask for leave and come back?" She was a little complacent in her tone, feeling that she was ahead of her working sister-in-law.

The second wife of Cheng has a good temper and doesn't say much, but she is obviously alienated from the eldest Cheng's family.She can't afford to mess with it, but she can still hide it.

Cheng Er came back this time to pay homage to his mother, and pushed aside the matter of dividing the family property proposed by Cheng Boss. "Brother has taken care of me all these years, working harder than us, so I don't want my part. There is discipline in the army, and the family leave is very short. I have booked a train ticket for tomorrow and have to go back..."

Cheng's eldest daughter-in-law's tense body relaxed this time, and she warmed up to Cheng Er's family.

Cheng Er's wife was not enthusiastic about her, but she had a good impression of her sister-in-law Xu Ying.The two chatted for a few words together, and then put Cheng's eldest daughter-in-law aside. Cheng's eldest daughter-in-law had a thick skin, but she was also a little uncomfortable.

Just as he was talking, some old ladies came in.They are from the family compound, and they are all related to the leaders of the farm. Boss Cheng is very polite to them.But after a few words, it made Boss Cheng's family feel uncomfortable.

After the old ladies sat down, they said straight to the point, "This old house, when Grandma Cheng was here, wrote the contract, and it has been transferred out. Cheng Ye, show me the contract for everyone to see."

Cheng Ye went to the house and took out the transfer contract, and the old ladies showed it to the younger generations of the Cheng family, and it was stamped with the stamp of the farm, so it couldn't be wrong.It was clearly written in black and white, and the ownership had been transferred to Cheng Ye.

Boss Cheng originally wanted to share it with his younger siblings, but it happened too suddenly. First, the younger siblings expressed that they did not want the property, and then a contract appeared, saying that these belonged to Cheng Ye.He had mixed feelings in his heart, and looking at Cheng's second child and Xu Ying, his tone was inevitably sour, "You guys already knew that, right? Our mother is really serious, just put it bluntly, can I still fight Cheng Ye?" ..."

Cheng Er sat aside, quickly waved his hands and said he didn't know, "Brother, I didn't know the news until I received your telegram, and I don't know about the house. And we have discussed it a long time ago. We share the things in my hometown. Don't either."

Xu Ying sat on the side, but answered, "Brother, if you don't fight with Cheng Ye, Cheng Ye won't be able to get the house." talk.

Xu Ying spoke clearly, and Mr. Cheng naturally understood. It seemed that someone had slapped him on the face, but he couldn't tell anything.The eldest daughter-in-law of Cheng was anxious, "Why, how can I give it all to him! Cheng Ye is still a child...!"

The old ladies had expected that the eldest daughter-in-law Cheng would say this, so they told her in a leisurely manner, "Grandma Cheng also said earlier that this old house can be divided between you... as long as you leave Cheng Ye's parents behind." Take out the house below."

Cheng's daughter-in-law faltered, muttered a few words, and stopped talking.She has a guilty conscience and has occupied Cheng Ye's house for so many years, so she is not willing to spit it out now.

"We're just acting as guarantors. If you want to do it, you can change it between the two." The old ladies waited for a while, and returned the contract to Cheng Ye when they saw no objection. "You uncles and elders are all here today. Let's give the contract to Cheng Ye in person, which can be regarded as an explanation to Grandma Cheng..."

"There are a lot of things in this room!" The daughter-in-law of Cheng Boss did not give up and interjected.

The old lady in the lead glanced at her, "The old third family also had a lot of things in the house, if you can find them out, then change them."

Boss Cheng's daughter-in-law kept her mouth shut. Back then, the furniture was newly made. They used some and sold some, so where could they get it back.
