After Escaping Famine, Three-Year-Old Fu Bao Became Everyone’s Favorite

During the famine, a sack of grain was traded for a little girl. Everyone thought the family had lost their minds.

But ever since they adopted little Qingtian, it was as if their lives had be...

Chapter 228 The matchmaker is here!

Boss Ye just happened to bring in some freshly-cooked venison pies. Seeing that Old Lady Ye was still wiping her red eyes, he immediately asked, "Mom, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying for no reason?"

"Who is crying? I just accidentally got my eyes stung by the hot air." Old Mrs. Ye hurriedly covered herself up.

Although Ye Lao Da didn't believe it in his heart, he knew that his mother probably didn't want to talk about it, so he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he smiled and joked, "Well, I thought the meat pie was too fragrant and made you cry!

"Here, this is for you."

As Boss Ye spoke, he placed a plate of meat patties that had been cut into four pieces in front of Old Lady Ye.

"Sunny cut it for you. She said you can't eat hot food, so cutting it will cool down faster."

Wang Guangping took the opportunity to say, "Look, old lady, what a wonderful son and daughter-in-law you have! Your family is truly the envy of others!"

As soon as she said this, Old Lady Ye couldn't help but think of Guo.

"If it weren't for the Guo incident, I might have shamelessly admitted what you said.

"Now that something like this has happened, you're still envious of others? It's good enough if you don't laugh at our family to their faces!"

When Old Mrs. Ye said this, she glanced around first and saw that Old Fourth Ye was not in the room, so she spoke in a low voice.

Little did he know that Ye Laosi heard everything outside the door.

Ye Laosi felt mixed emotions for a moment.

He felt that he had brought shame to his family and turned such an envied big family into a laughing stock among the villagers.

If it really doesn't work, why not just leave home, go out and explore the world for two years and then come back?

Anyway, I have the strength and am not afraid of hardship. If one person is full, the whole family will not be hungry.

I can’t say how much money I can make if I go out, but at least I should have no problem supporting myself.

If I come back in two or three years, no one will mention this matter anymore.

When Ye Laosi was standing outside the door and thinking about the bitterness of leaving his hometown alone, he heard Wang Guangping's laughter coming from the house.

Wang Guangping laughed heartily and said, "Sister-in-law, if you had said this yesterday, I would have made you think more positively.

"But now your fourth son is different from before. He has been praised by the emperor and even received a reward!

"Don't even mention whether those people outside dare to laugh at your family in person. Maybe in a few days a matchmaker will come to propose marriage to the fourth child!"

Wang Guangping said this, turned his head to look at Ye Lao Da who was standing beside him in amazement, and then said: "It must be that your eldest brother is already married, otherwise there must be many young girls vying to marry him!"

Old Mrs. Ye didn't believe him at all. She thought Wang Guangping was just teasing her, so she changed the subject and said, "The meat pie isn't that hot anymore. Everyone, eat it while it's hot. It won't taste good if it gets cold."

As soon as the meat pie entered their mouths, no one had time to think about what Wang Guangping had just said. They were all immersed in the deliciousness of the venison pie.

The venison patties made for adults are large and thick, with plenty of fillings, so you can enjoy the meat in one big bite.

Mu Zheng's men naturally enjoyed the meal, but the children at home had a hard time eating.

Mrs. Ye simply made a pot of smaller and thinner meat patties for the children and asked them to eat in the west room.

“Changrui, you are the eldest brother, please help me take care of Qingtian.”

"Don't worry, Auntie. I'll feed Qingtian." Ye Changrui said as he picked up Qingtian and let her sit next to him.

Brother Ye and Sister-in-law Ye went to the city and took Qingtian away for more than ten days. The children at home missed her so much that they couldn't even muster the energy to play with the toys at home or their favorite games.

Now that their younger sister has finally returned, the five of them have to go to private school every day. They can only see their younger sister during meal times and at night. It’s so depressing.

"Eat slowly, don't burn yourself." Ye Changrui broke off a small piece of meat patty and tried it himself to make sure it was not hot before passing it to Qingtian.

He didn't even bother to eat, he just looked down at the sunny sky.

The other four brats were the same. They didn't eat as fast as usual and waited for their sister to eat first.

Qingtian took a bite and smiled with happiness.

"The meat pie is so delicious!" Qingtian said, raising the meat pie in his hand and pushing it towards Ye Changrui's mouth, "Brother, you have some too!"

Ye Changrui didn't mind at all that this was something his sister had eaten. He ate it in one bite and then broke off a piece for Qingtian.

Just as everyone in the house was immersed in the deliciousness of venison pie, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Is this Ye Qingchen and Ye Qingan's home?"

Wang Guangping thought the voice sounded familiar, so he leaned over and looked, and immediately laughed.

"Sister-in-law, what did I say? Look, the matchmaker is here!"
