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...
Guo walked into Ye Ersao's room in a good mood.
The rooms on the second floor are all suites, and there is a whole row of large windows facing the street in the outer room, which makes the room very bright when opened.
Even the furniture is more than one level higher than that downstairs.
When Guo was on the first floor, she thought it was the best room she had ever lived in.
When he saw Ye Ersao's room at this moment, he couldn't help feeling jealous.
Isn't it just that I know a little bit of needlework that I can live in such a nice room?
Guo was walking around the room looking around when she happened to meet Mrs. Ye coming over with Qingtian in her arms.
"Sister-in-law, can you help me get some sunshine this afternoon?"
Mrs. Ye and Old Lady Ye have similar ideas. These past two days, they have been trying to find ways to get Mrs. Ye to spend more time with Qingtian.
When Mrs. Guo saw Sister Ye, she immediately said, "Oh, isn't this Sister Ye?"
Mrs. Ye heard her words in a sarcastic tone and knew that she was up to no good, so she simply ignored her.
Mrs. Guo, however, didn't notice that others disliked her and continued to ask, "Sister-in-law, why did you ask Sister-in-law to help you look after the children? What do you have to do this afternoon?"
"Well, your brother and I are going out this afternoon to go to the market and buy some vegetables."
After all, they are sisters-in-law, and it is not easy for Mrs. Ye to ignore them all the time.
When she heard about buying vegetables, Guo became even more excited.
"Oh, buying groceries!" She winked and said, "What's up, sister-in-law? Are you still cooking dinner tonight?"
Mrs. Ye was puzzled by her question and asked, "What will you eat if you don't cook?"
"Sister-in-law, stop pretending. I heard everything when I went upstairs just now." Guo said with an unconcealable smile on her face.
"What did you hear?" Mrs. Ye became more and more confused.
"Mr. Wei said that the lunch was terrible and he was so angry that he threw down his chopsticks and refused to eat.
"If you ask me, we country folk should stop thinking about climbing high branches.
"You've taken the Qin family's fifty taels of silver and you've lost your mind. You really think your cooking is so delicious!"
As Guo said this, she also wanted to pull Ye Ersao to her side and said, "Second sister-in-law, when you have time, please persuade your eldest sister-in-law. After all, your Changrui is still studying with Mr. Wei.
"If your sister-in-law makes someone angry, it won't be good for you, right?"
Guo's words confused both Mrs. Ye's eldest and second wives.
What does this mean?
But Qingtian said directly and crisply: "But my mother didn't cook at noon!"
Mrs. Ye also said: "Yes, isn't the lunch prepared by the inn's kitchen?
"All the dishes are sweet, I can't get used to them, they're not as delicious as my sister-in-law's."
Qingtian nodded repeatedly after hearing this and said, "Mom's cooking is the best!
"Mr. Wei also asked me why it wasn't my mother who cooked lunch!"
Mrs. Ye asked in confusion, "Why, didn't you have lunch?"
Guo choked when asked. Of course she had eaten, but at that time she was so immersed in the joy of living in a good house that she didn't pay attention to what she had eaten.
Seeing her embarrassed face, Mrs. Ye finally realized what she had meant. She immediately frowned and said, "Fourth sister-in-law, there are some things I don't want to say, but you have to know that we are a family.
"Mom always says one thing, that is, when we prosper together, we all prosper, and when we suffer together, we all suffer. No matter who is doing good, it is all good for our Ye family."
Mrs. Ye was actually quite reserved in what she said, but it still made Guo's face turn red and blue.
"Second sister-in-law, what do you mean by this? I didn't say anything, I just wanted to remind the eldest sister-in-law.
"Isn't it that I'm doing this for the good of the Ye family? You're really just a dog biting Lu Dongbin, not knowing how kind a person is."
After she said that, she flicked her sleeves and left angrily.
Mrs. Ye Dasao and Mrs. Ye Ersao looked at each other, both feeling helpless.
Mrs. Ye couldn't help but say, "The fourth son is a good young man, but it's a waste for him to have such a wife."
"Stop talking! If she hears, there'll be another commotion." Mrs. Ye was also troubled by Guo. "It was okay on the road before, but now we live upstairs and downstairs. If we make any noise, everyone can hear it. It's embarrassing enough."
As they were talking, Big Brother Ye came up and said, "Butler Li is also going out to buy something. He asked us to go together in a car later!"
"That's great! I was worried about how big the city is and what if I get lost!"
As Mrs. Ye said this, she quickly stuffed Qingtian into Mrs. Ye's arms.
Qingtian, however, held onto Mrs. Ye's hand and refused to let go. He looked at her eagerly and said, "Mom, I want to go too."
Mrs. Ye said, "There are so many people and cars outside. What if we run into beggars or kidnappers?
"Just stay at the inn and keep Second Aunt company. Mom will buy you something delicious, okay?"
Qingtian really wanted to follow her out, but after hearing what Sister Ye said, he didn't want to embarrass her, so he reluctantly let go of her hand and nodded obediently, "Okay..."
Boss Ye couldn't bear to see his daughter being so wronged, so he immediately said, "Qingtian, go if you want to. Dad will hold you!"
"Oh, you...why do you have to go against me!"
Mrs. Ye originally wanted Mrs. Ye to let Mrs. Ye share more of the blessing of sunny days, but she couldn't say this to Mr. Ye.
Li Fu had already had someone harness the cart and came up to talk to someone, saying, "Second sister-in-law of the Ye family, you should come with us to the market. We need to personally review the thread we need to buy. If we buy the wrong one, it will cause a lot of trouble."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Ye quickly stood up and hugged Qingtian, saying, "That's perfect. Let's not argue this time. Let's go together!"
Guo returned to her room and was sulking. When she heard the noise outside, she opened the window and looked out.
I saw the three of them holding Qingtian and getting into the carriage with Li Fu.
Guo was so angry that she slammed the window.
Ye Laosi was taking a nap when he was woken up by a loud bang. He jumped up and asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"
"Nothing's wrong, go to sleep!" Guo said in a bad tone, then suddenly thought of something and pulled Ye Lao Si and said, "Let's go out for a walk!"
Ye Lao Si lay back down and said, "Do you have any money in your pocket? Or are you just going out for a stroll without buying anything?"
Guo was so angry that she hit him.
"Stop it, I'm exhausted from pulling the cart this morning, let me sleep a little longer..."
Ye Laosi spoke vaguely, turned over, and soon started snoring again.
Guo sat on the edge of the bed and was angry for a while, but suddenly it occurred to her that she did not have any money in her pocket, but didn't Mrs. Ye have fifty taels of silver notes?
With so many people at the market, Mrs. Ye certainly wouldn't dare to carry the banknotes with her.
Now that the three of them were no longer at the inn, the room was empty...
The more Guo thought about it, the more she felt itchy. She glanced at the sleeping Ye Lao Si, tiptoed out, and when no one was around, she sneaked into Ye Lao Da's room...
