Chapter 252 is coming

Wei stood in the kitchen, frowning as she looked at the ribs that the eldest wife brought over.

I heard that my sister-in-law sent a whole pig's head to her parents' home, and even the head of the village and Xiuxiu's parents sent five pounds of meat, but they only gave their family three ribs...

This is my legitimate sister-in-law! He gives so much to outsiders, but only so little to his own brothers.

Wei felt that Du did not distinguish between relatives and strangers, and felt a little unhappy.

In the evening, Ye Caiping's family had pork rib soup.

Ye Caiping took a sip of the soup and said with a smile, "It's actually quite fragrant, and it doesn't have any mutton smell."

"It's not smelly at all, it's delicious!" said Old Lady Ye. "If you know how to prepare it, it will be so delicious!"

The days flow peacefully.

Apart from mixing ingredients at the Hu La Tang workshop, Ye Caiping also visited the furniture workshop.

The apprentices learned the skill quickly. After all, they only had to learn one process, and as long as they worked hard, they would quickly master the tricks.

Ye Caiping took the first batch of drawings to the furniture workshop and discussed with Wang Shuantou and others:

"Let's make a batch of small things first, such as embroidered cushions, kang tables and chests of drawers, so that they can practice."

Wang Shuantou and Ye Lizheng both agreed.

After the discussion, Ye Caiping returned home.

Old Mrs. Ye was picking vegetables in the corridor. When she saw her come in empty-handed, she asked, "Why aren't you eating the stewed fish?"

Ye Caiping choked: "Didn't mother tell me last time that there was something delicious? If you want to eat, I'll go fishing now."

Old Lady Ye sighed, "No, no, no, I'm just asking out of curiosity. You ate it several times recently!"

"How could it be several times?"

It must be because she told Duanwu and Shen Zhiyan last time, so Shen Zhiyan stopped sending it to her.

Ye Caiping was relaxed and happy. She pulled a small stool and sat down, picking vegetables with Old Lady Ye.

Old Lady Ye asked, "I met Mr. Qian yesterday. Where is he from?"

Ye Caiping was confused: "Which Qian Dongjia?"

"I'm from the Deyue Restaurant in Fucheng! I come here often to pick up goods. I even came to borrow the toilet yesterday."

Ye Caiping suddenly realized: "Oh, I have some impression of him. I don't know where he is from, but he is just a partner."

Old Mrs. Ye was speechless.

Ten days have passed since I last sent you some fish! The little fish never appeared again.

Recently, she has also been observing the partners who come to transport goods. She will pay attention to anyone who is around 30 to 40 years old.

Old Mrs. Ye suspected that she had misunderstood and that her daughter was actually fine.

"Madam Ye, I'm here!!!" A loud voice suddenly sounded outside.

Ye Caiping was startled. Oh my god, it’s the Dragon Boat Festival! This guy, is he going to send her fish again?

Ye Caiping's face turned pale and she rushed out in a flash.

"Hey?" Seeing her running so fast, Old Mrs. Ye was stunned for a moment, then she put down the food and followed her.

Ye Caiping had just arrived at the front door and was about to open it. When she turned around, she saw that Old Lady Ye had followed her. Her face was embarrassed.

"Why is mom here?"

"Can't I come?"

"No...just...you just go back and do your work, I'll open the door." Wouldn't her mother see that someone was bringing her fish? How could she explain this?

"Madam Ye, Madam Ye. Are you home? It's Duanwu!" Duanwu was still knocking on the door.

Ye Caiping: “…”

"Oh, someone is calling. Coming, coming!" Old Mrs. Ye hurriedly opened the door.

Duanwu's smiling face came into view. Ye Caiping was a little embarrassed. She rushed out and was about to pull him aside to hide.

Unexpectedly, I saw a carriage behind Duanwu.

A little head popped out of the car window, and it turned out to be Shen Manman: “Aunt, I’m here!”

Ye Caiping breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that it was not Xiao Yu Miao, but Manman! very nice!

Shen Manman jumped out of the car and jumped in front of Ye Caiping.

Before he could say anything, a pair of black brocade boots stepped off the carriage, followed by a green robe with silver cloud patterns, and a handsome man with an elegant and dignified look lifted the curtain and got out.

Shen Zhiyan is here too!

Ye Caiping: “…”

Seeing her somewhat surprised expression, Shen Zhiyan raised his eyebrows: “What’s wrong?”

Ye Caiping shook her head: "Nothing. I didn't expect you to come."

"I can't come?"

"Yes! It's just a little unexpected."

Shen Zhiyan said calmly: “Last time you sent half a wild boar meat to my house, it was delicious, thank you.”

Ye Caiping: "Haha, is it possible that it was a return gift from my eldest brother and Xuan'er?"

Shen Zhiyan looked at Shen Manman.

Shen Manman turned around guiltily and suddenly pointed to the distance: “Ah, there is a dog over there!”

Ye Caiping chuckled: "Please come in first."

Turning back to see Old Lady Ye, Ye Caiping introduced: "Oh, I forgot to introduce, this is my mother. Mother, this is Ye Xuan's husband, Shen Zhiyan."

Shen Zhiyan bowed and said, "Hello, Aunt Ye."

Old Mrs. Ye came back to her senses: “Oh, hello, Mr. Shen, please come in.”

Shen Zhiyan and Shen Manman followed Ye Caiping into the house.

Duanwu turned to the workshop as if he was familiar with it, and pulled the carriage from the back door to the barn.

After entering the gate, Ye Caiping saw Xiaoyan coming out of the kitchen, and said, "Go to your uncle's house and tell Xuan'er that his husband is here. Also call Yinhua over and tell her that Manman is here."

Xiaoyan hurried out, and Ye Caiping led Shen Zhiyan and his daughter into the main room.

Jin'er Huan'er came over after hearing the noise and took Manman's hand: "Why is Sister Man here?"

"I came to play with you!"

Everyone took their seats one by one, and soon, Ye Xuan and others arrived.

Ye Daquan and Mrs. Du had not met Shen Zhiyan yet, so when they heard that he was coming, of course they wanted to meet him in person.

Old Mrs. Ye, Old Man Ye, and Mr. and Mrs. Ye Daquan were all stunned when they saw Shen Zhiyan sitting upright on the chair.

Is this the legendary Mr. Shen? How come you look so young and beautiful?

The most important thing was his bearing, which was elegant, noble, and majestic. It was hard to put it into words, but it made them dare not speak loudly.

"Hello, sir." Ye Xuan bowed quickly.

"No need to be so polite." Shen Zhiyan said lightly, and then politely greeted Old Man Ye and his wife and Ye Daquan and his wife.

A few people could only smile foolishly and keep saying "okay, okay, okay".

"I heard that Xuan'er's husband is here!" an excited voice sounded.

Ye Caiping turned around and saw Wei running in with Ye Peng in a hurry, with Yinhua chasing after them, panting.

Ye Caiping said: "This is my second sister-in-law and my nephew Ye Peng. Second sister-in-law, this is Mr. Shen."

When Wei saw Shen Zhiyan, she was startled: "So young? Just a guy in his early twenties. And he's so handsome! Are you married?"

Old Lady Ye, Mrs. Du and others felt that Mrs. Wei was too rude.

"Second brother, what nonsense are you talking about?" Old Mrs. Ye said angrily.

Wei finally reacted and waved his hands with a smile:

"Nothing, nothing, just asking. My niece Xiaojuan is already fifteen, and my mother has been urging me to find a husband for her. It's driving me crazy. Whenever I see a good-looking man, I can't help asking a few more questions."

When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned, and Old Lady Ye and Du Ye Xuan almost fainted.

Especially Ye Xuan, he’s about to explode!

Who is his husband? Then who is Wei Xiaojuan? Second Aunt, do you have the nerve to bring this up?

Ye Caiping looked at Wei and felt terrible.

Shen Zhiyan remained silent with a cold face, and Shen Manman jumped out, angrily:

"This is my dad! I'm fourteen! Do you think that's appropriate?"

Wei then said awkwardly: "Sorry, sorry, I just speak my mind."

Old man Ye also hurriedly apologized: "Mr. Shen, I'm so sorry, farmers talk like this, they say whatever they think, she actually has no ill intentions."

Shen Zhiyan nodded gently: “Uncle Ye, you don’t have to apologize, it’s just a small matter.”

Old Mrs. Ye, Mrs. Du and others breathed a sigh of relief.

Wei continued, "I was wrong just now. Um... I came here today because I heard that you were coming, so I wanted to ask you a favor."

"I know Mr. Shen is a great teacher. Xuan'er was able to pass the exam thanks to your teaching. In fact, Xuan'er is not the only one studying in our family."

"My son Penger is also studying. But he failed the exam to become a Tongsheng because he didn't have a good teacher."

As he spoke, Wei looked aggrieved.

Old Man Ye, Mrs. Du and others were already stunned with anger.

Old Mrs. Ye said in a low voice: "Second brother, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"I, I'm not talking nonsense..." Wei felt aggrieved, "I'm just asking for a chance. We are all grandchildren of the Ye family, why can Xuan'er follow a good teacher, but Peng'er can't?"
