Chapter 433 Ending (1)

In less than half a day, Ye Lizheng had registered the names of the villagers.

Three days later, every household paid five taels of silver.

Ye Lizheng collected all the money and came to Ye Caiping's house: "All the money has been collected... Even Liu Decai, Zhao Laizi and Ye Xiniu have paid money, and they also want to join."

These families all don't get along with Ye Caiping.

Ye Caiping said, "Let them join. After all, they are also villagers. If they are restless, it won't be too late to remove them later."

Ye Li was nodding quickly.

Then, he went to Daliushuang as he knew the route well.

Uncle Liu was sitting at the door smoking a pipe. When he saw Ye Lizheng, he jumped up happily and said, "It's Ye Lizheng. Is there another big business deal?"

"Yes, we are planning to build an inn in our village."

"Inn? Good, good, please come in."

Uncle Liu now gets very excited whenever he sees people from Qinghe Village.

Ever since Ye Caiping bought bricks from him the year before last, his business has been booming and he has a constant stream of customers.

First it was Ye Caiping and Ye Erquan, then it was Ye Daquan. Just after a break, Ye Caiping is going to build a furniture workshop and a glass workshop, and there are also Ye Ershu, Ye Hufen, Zhao Langzhong...

The kiln in my house never stops producing all kinds of bricks and floor tiles.

Just doing Ye Caiping's business made him exhausted.

But this dog is so delicious!

Although I was given a preferential price, the money I earned this year alone is enough to cover what I earned in the previous ten years.

Now he has become a rich man in their village.

Ye Lizheng and Uncle Liu were old acquaintances. He smiled and went into the house to determine the number of bricks and tiles.

Time flies, and soon it is the eighth day of March.

The bridge was officially opened to traffic that day.

Ye Caiping and everyone in Qinghe Village gathered on the bridgehead. Old Hong, County Magistrate He, Prefect Qin, and people from several nearby villages also came to join in the fun.

Shen Zhiyan also came, standing not too far from Ye Caiping, looking at her.

Ye Caiping smiled, glared at him and ignored him.

There is a large table in front of the bridge, with three large roasted pigs on it, as well as whole chickens, geese, ducks, fish... various steamed cakes and pastries, fresh fruits and vegetables, and baskets of dried fruits.

Ye Lizheng smiled and said, "The time has come."

"Okay." Ye Caiping nodded, picked up a stick of incense and inserted it into the incense burner.

Just then a gong sounded, and Ye Lizheng shouted, "The bridge is open!"

Then, a long string of firecrackers was lit behind them, and amid the celebratory sounds of firecrackers, the villagers cheered: "The bridge is finally open!"

"From now on, you don't have to go ten miles to get to town. It will be much more convenient to get in and out."

“It’s also convenient for visiting relatives.”

After the firecrackers were set off, Ye Caiping said, "Shanzi Shizi, Yangma Guixiang, cut up the roasted pork, chicken and duck and share them with everyone. Also share these snacks and dried fruits with everyone."

Ye Caiping specifically asked people to prepare more things for burning incense and offering sacrifices to the gods so that they could be distributed to the villagers to make everyone happy.

When the villagers heard this, their eyes lit up and they crowded forward excitedly.

Ye Daquan yelled, "Don't push, don't push! Line up one by one! Anyone who doesn't line up won't be given a piece of meat!"

Only then did the villagers line up quietly.

Ye Erquan and Ye Daquan personally stepped forward to cut the pork. Old Mrs. Ye and Old Man Ye were in a good mood and also went over to help pass the meat, fruits, etc.

Ye Jin'er and the other maids loved to join in the fun. They came forward with a smile and distributed dried fruits. Everyone was busy and happy.

While everyone was distracted, Shen Zhiyan walked over to Ye Caiping and took her into his arms.

Ye Caiping asked angrily, "What for?"

Shen Zhiyan smiled and said, “Shall we walk around?”

"Be careful that the eldest and second brothers will glare at you."

"They are busy now. Let's go quickly while they are not paying attention to this side."

Having said that, he quickly pulled Ye Caiping away.

Ye Caiping was smiling. I have to say, it was really fun to get along with her with a little bit of secret feelings.

The two left the bustling bridge and walked slowly on the quiet and winding village road.

There are rolling mountains in the distance and scattered houses nearby. It is a simple and quiet place, yet it is not lacking in the smell of fireworks.

They passed by her big house and her three workshops, and walked step by step with him along the path she had once walked, their hearts filled with joy.

Before they knew it, the two had circled around and returned to the bridge.

Ye Daquan and others were still there happily distributing things.

Shen Zhiyan looked at her tenderly: "We haven't walked this new road before, shall we go together?"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand.

Ye Caiping smiled happily: "Okay."

Put your hand on his.

The two of them walked onto the newly built bridge together and moved forward slowly.

They will walk the rest of their lives together until they grow old.

......

Time passed quickly, and soon it was March 22, the wedding day when Ye Caiping held a wedding banquet in the village.

The whole village celebrated on this day.

Ye Erquan hooked his arm around Ye Daquan's neck and said, "Brother, he's coming to pick up the bride soon. Can we come up with something difficult to stop him?"

Ye Daquan looked strange: "Well... you know that my brother is not smart, and I really can't think of any good ideas."

"What kind of questions did Big Brother give us last time in the capital?"

"Oh, don't mention it for now. What matters now is the present! Do you understand? I'll leave this matter to you, the second brother."

Ye Erquan was flattered: "Such an important task, is it really possible?"

Ye Daquan nodded firmly: "You can do it."

Ye Erquan looked at Ye Bajin, Siquan and others around him.

Ye Bajin, Siquan and others nodded quickly: "I'll leave it to you."

Ye Erquan immediately rubbed his hands: "Okay."

Ye Daquan: "Have you ever thought about doing something before?"

Ye Erquan patted his chest and said, "I've thought about it a long time ago. The first one is archery!"

The memory of Ye Daquan's death came to his mind, and he laughed with tears in his eyes: "Hahahaha!"

Ye Bajin and others held back their laughter and gave a thumbs up: "Great!"

Ye Erquan was somewhat proud: "For the second one, let him carry three buckets of water."

Ye Daquan shook his head and clapped his hands: "Tsk tsk tsk, you are worthy of it, Second Brother."

Bajin gave a thumbs up again: "You really are worthy of being Daquan's younger brother."

Ye Erquan scratched his head and laughed: "Hehehe, I'll let him recite the festival for the third one."

"Good job!" The audience applauded.

“Hahaha!” Ye Erquan was encouraged and excited: “He will be here soon, I will let him see how powerful I am as the second brother. Sanquan, Wuquan, Heigou, Shuisheng, follow me.”

Having said that, Ye Erquan led his men out in a menacing manner.

Ye Xuan, who was not far away, was stunned and his jaw almost dropped.

It's too shameful to watch! It's so shameful!

Jinhua chuckled, while Jin'er and Huan'er also smiled silently.

Yinhua and Ye Yong were puzzled and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ye Xuan coughed dryly: "Nothing, anyway, this show... is really interesting. Mr. Shen will definitely like it."
