At this time, where the Ye family had set up camp, the family was craning their necks to wait for them to come back.

Ye Changnian nestled in Old Lady Ye's arms, wiping away his tears, and asked with a choked voice, "Grandma, is my sister going to be snatched away?"

"No." Old Madam Ye hugged him and said, "Qingtian's parents are your uncle and aunt. Don't worry, no one can take them away!"

"Wow—" Ye Changnian still cried worriedly, "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have gone to see the city gate tower!"

Seeing this, the other four children gathered around.

Ye Changrui reached out to wipe his tears and whispered comforting words.

Ye Changxue was so anxious that he kept jumping up and down and said, "We have to hurry and get our sister back."

Ye Changzhao tried to comfort his brother at first, but in the end he just started crying too.

Even Ye Changfeng, who had the most awkward temper, pursed his lips tightly, his eyes full of worry.

Mrs. Ye was distressed and upset by her son's crying, and sighed, "If you ask me, that Shan Lao Da is the worst kind of person.

"When I was in the village, I always relied on my brute force to bully this and provoke that!

"Why haven't you come back for so long? Is there anything wrong?

"Oh, it's so frustrating! If I had known earlier, I would have gone along with them!"

Mrs. Ye was more composed and consoled her, "Don't worry. Even if Boss Shan is very strong, two fists can't defeat four hands. How can four of us be defeated by just one of him?"

Only Guo didn't seem worried at all. She sat aside with her legs crossed and made sarcastic remarks.

"If you ask me, since the Shan family couple wants the child back, why not just return it to them..."

"If you can't speak, just shut your stinky mouth!" Old Mrs. Ye scolded.

Guo's face froze after being scolded, and she looked around subconsciously.

Mrs. Ye Er and Mrs. Ye San immediately turned their heads away, and the children didn't even look at her.

Ye Lao Si, who usually protected her in every way, was not here at the moment, and there was no one in the family to speak for him.

Guo was just complaining to herself about why Ye Lao Si hadn't come back yet, when she saw Ye Changxue suddenly jump up, jumping on the car and shouting, "He's back!"

Ye Changnian stopped crying immediately. With a face like a calico cat, he looked up and asked, "Where's my sister? Is she back too?"

"They're back! They're all back! Auntie is holding them!"

Ye Changzhao jumped up and down twice more before being pulled down by Mrs. Ye San. She said, "Why are you jumping up and down? You'll break the car apart in a moment!"

Old Mrs. Ye was relieved to see that everyone had returned and no one was injured.

"younger sister!"

When Mrs. Ye heard Ye Changnian shouting for his younger sister, she placed Qingtian next to him.

Ye Changnian grabbed her hand, as if afraid that she would be snatched away again.

He leaned close to Qingtian's ear and whispered in her ear, "If someone tries to steal you next time, bite him hard!

"If he feels pain, he'll definitely let go, and then you'll run away..."

Ye Changrui was speechless listening to this. He reached out and covered his brother's mouth. He said to Qingtian, "Don't learn those messy things from Niannian. I will protect you well in the future and won't let anyone snatch you away again."

While the children were whispering here, Boss Ye had already told everyone everything that had just happened.

After he finished speaking, he looked at Old Lady Ye and asked, "Mom, that's what it is. What do you mean?"

Old Mrs. Ye was thinking while listening, and was not in a hurry to speak at this time.

However, Mrs. Guo could no longer hold back and jumped out, saying, "What else is there to think about? Entering the customs! That's entering the customs!

"How many refugees are there under the city wall now? You can't see it!

"Besides, noble people don't appear every day, and even if they do, they may not look down on us!

"If you ask me, we finally found someone who doesn't mind us having a family, and you're not going to agree right away, are you stupid?"

"I think you're the fool!" Mrs. Ye retorted, "Do you think being a servant is that easy?

"Besides, if you sell yourself into slavery, you're not allowed to take the imperial examination. Is Changrui the only one who's delayed? Aren't you going to have children in the future?"

"I..." Guo was choked by the rebuke, but she still insisted, "Selling yourself into slavery doesn't mean you have to be a slave for life. You can redeem yourself when you have money in the future!

“If you ask me, in this world today, people can’t live happily anymore.

“Haven’t you heard the saying, it’s better to be a rich family’s dog than a poor family’s son!

"Didn't I tell you before that I have a cousin who was sold to a wealthy family as a maid at the age of ten.

"I am now with the young lady, wearing silk and satin and eating delicious food.

"I only need to accompany the young lady every day, and the heavy work will be done by the maids.

"Tsk tsk, that little life she leads is even more comfortable than the daughters of small families..."

Old Madam Ye couldn't bear to listen any longer and interrupted her, "With someone like you, do you think they would let you be a maidservant beside the young lady, or a servant who does rough work?"

Mrs. Guo seemed not to understand Mrs. Ye's sarcasm. "My cousin is not as beautiful as me! If my father hadn't arranged a marriage for me with your family so early, I might be the one enjoying the happiness with the young lady now!"

Old Mrs. Ye was so angry that she kept coughing, and she cursed her old man in her heart for the countless times.

If he hadn't been sick and confused at the time and insisted on arranging such a marriage, she would never have agreed to let the fourth son marry such a thing.

"You don't have to tell me. If you want to be a slave, I can satisfy you at any time!" Old Lady Ye said with a gloomy face, "I'll take you to the city gate in a while, put a straw on your head, and sell you off directly. Everyone will be happy!"
