Chapter 173 It’s always good to learn something

Ye Caiping nodded, everyone has their own choices and ways out.

"Oh, it's this late. I have to go to the second son's house to make spicy soup." Mrs. Du looked at the sky and said, "I'll trouble you to prepare lunch for the helpers at noon."

"Go ahead! I have Xiaoyan and Xiuxiu here."

Ye Caiping took Madam Du's arm and said, "I will go to my second brother's house with my eldest sister-in-law."

The aunt and the sister-in-law walked out together. Mrs. Du said, "Do you know what the big enemy your elder brother is talking about?"

Ye Caiping laughed and said, "That's what I mean by being a sucker. I don't know when he learned this from me."

"Oh. Big Sucker... It's quite fresh. It seems to be a little more unfair than the Sucker."

"Hahaha!"

The two came to Ye Er's family.

Wei was already boiling water and Yinhua was helping.

Mrs. Du said as she washed her hands, "I wanted to send Xuan'er to school, so I looked at Jinhua and was delayed by the matchmaker, so I came a little late."

"Matchmaker?" Wei was stunned.

"Yes, he actually wants to introduce a scholar to my little sister. It's so funny. What's the purpose? As if no one can see it."

Wei also laughed.

Ye Caiping said, "Second sister-in-law, the day after tomorrow I plan to send Jin'er and the other two girls to Master Shen's house for lessons, only for half a day. Yinhua is young, so she can come along."

"Master Shen? Is he the one Xuan Er became Xuan'er's apprentice?"

"Yes. He has a daughter who is about the same age as Jin'er and the others. There are several teachers at home. Master Shen said that he could teach Jin'er and the others together, so that Miss Shen would have more playmates."

Wei frowned. Girls don't take exams, so why do they need to learn so many things?

To be honest, Yinhua and Yang Xiaoyan have spent less time learning embroidery during this period because they have too many housework to do.

I have to feed the chickens and pigs, cut grass for the pigs and collect firewood. There are so many housework to do, so I don't have time to attend classes.

Wei thought for a moment and said, "Is Jinhua going too?"

Mrs. Du said, "She is doing fine in the cloth shop. She doesn't want to go."

Wei heaved a sigh of relief: "Yinhua is practicing embroidery. I want her to learn this well."

Ye Caiping frowned slightly: "You can also learn embroidery from Miss Shen, Yinhua, what do you think?"

Yinhua was burning a fire, looking a little dazed. Thinking of the chickens and piglets at home, she shook her head and said, "I want to be at home."

Ye Caiping sighed softly. Jinhua and Xiaoyan were a little old, but Yinhua was the youngest in the family, only twelve years old, so she had plenty of time to learn.

Seeing Yinhua's confused and bewildered look, I knew she couldn't make a decision.

After thinking for a while, he stood up and said, "Let my second brother make the decision on this matter. I'll go find him."

"Hey..." Wei wanted to say something, but Ye Caiping had already turned around and walked out.

Ye Caiping guessed that Ye Erquan was busy in the vegetable garden beside the house, so she walked over.

Ye Er's family has an area of ​​vegetable garden. The young vegetable seedlings are growing vigorously. There is a mountain stream next to it, which makes watering very convenient.

"Second brother." Ye Caiping walked over.

Ye Erquan put down his hoe and said with a smile, "Hey, my little sister is here."

“Second brother, the day after tomorrow I will send Jin’er and the others to Master Shen’s house to learn something, and Yinhua should go too.”

Ye Erquan was pleasantly surprised: "Is there such an opportunity? What do you study?"

"She also learns calligraphy, reading, interpersonal relationships, and embroidery. She also learns accounting, etc. No matter what she does in the future, it will be worth it if she learns it."

The more Ye Erquan listened, the brighter his eyes became: "Hey, you're right."

"Well, tomorrow morning, I'll take Jin'er, Huan'er and Yinhua to the town to buy some decent clothes."

"Thank you for your help, little sister."

Ye Erquan didn't know how to express his gratitude.

After Ye Caiping finished speaking, she went home.

…

After the spicy soup was ready, Mrs. Du went home, and Ye Erquan and Mrs. Wei delivered the goods together.

"What, you promised my little sister that you would let Yinhua learn something?" Wei frowned.

"Why not go if you have the chance?"

"There are not many people at home. Peng'er goes to school, and now Yinhua is gone too. Who will do the housework? I can't handle it alone. I rely on Xiuxiu and Yinhua to chop firewood to make spicy soup every day. Now that Yinhua is gone, is Xiuxiu still willing to do it?"

Ye Erquan said unhappily, "Then hire someone to chop wood! When my younger sister used to make soup, she would pay Ye Xing and Ye Wang to help chop wood. A bundle was only 2 cents, and we used three or four bundles a day, which was less than 10 cents."

Wei frowned.

Ye Erquan continued, "My little sister is doing this for Yinhua's own good. What did I say last night? No matter what, it's always right to listen to my little sister and parents."

Although Wei was reluctant, she nodded when she thought that it was Ye Caiping who insisted, "Okay, let Yinhua go."

When the couple came back from delivering the goods, they saw Yinhua feeding the chicks.

"Yinhua." Wei called her over. "Tomorrow, go to the town with your aunt to buy two sets of clothes, and the day after tomorrow, go to Mr. Shen's house to learn something."

Yinhua's eyes lit up: "Can I go?"

"Okay, your father lets you go. But you have to be careful. I heard that Master Shen is a powerful man, and his daughter is a young lady, so don't offend him. You have to be careful when walking, too. If you drop someone's valuables, we can't afford the compensation."

Yinhua's heart tightened, and she nodded: "Yes. I can collect firewood and take care of the chicks at home..."

"Let Ye Xing and Ye Wang go collect firewood. Don't worry about the little chickens. Mother will take good care of them."

Only then did Yinhua grin.

…

Ye Caiping's house is bustling at the moment.

The helpers of Ye Daquan's family had finished work and were eating lunch there.

After being able to make money, Ye Daquan and his wife became very generous. Although they couldn't afford to eat pork belly and lean meat every day, it was still good to eat some pork offal.

Stir-fry pork liver today and pork heart and kidney tomorrow.

This was all Hu Xiuxiu's doing.

She didn't know how to do it at first, but Ye Caiping taught her how to marinate and how to use more oil. She learned it once and remembered it well, and fried it until it was crispy and fragrant.

When Ye Xuan got home, he saw Mrs. Zhao sitting in the corner eating.

The corners of his mouth twitched. Never mind, just rub it. After all, that mouth helped my aunt vent her anger a few times.

Ye Caiping was talking to the Jin'er sisters in the study.

"We are going to class the day after tomorrow? Then who will do the work of purchasing and shipping goods?" Ye Jiner said.

"Don't worry, I already have a choice."

She had already decided to find a female teacher for the two maids, so she was naturally prepared. The reason why they were made to work in the workshop was just to train them.

"Let's go eat first!"

Ye Caiping took her two daughters to the yard to get food.

They ate whatever the helpers ate and were too lazy to cook for themselves.

After Ye Caiping finished her meal, she saw a group of helpers gathered together chatting and laughing. Only a boy of about eighteen or nineteen in the corner looked a little unhappy.

Noticing Ye Caiping looking at him, the man smiled, then lowered his head and continued eating.

This is Zhao Fan, the son of Doctor Zhao.

Doctor Zhao had a good relationship with Ye Daquan's family. Later, when the Ye family had problems, he even lent money to them.

But Ye Caiping's workshop selected people twice, but did not choose Zhao Fan.

Because of this, Doctor Zhao and his family were very depressed.

But Ye Daquan had helped Doctor Zhao build his house before, and although he felt depressed, he still came to repay the favor.
