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...
Boss Ye had no choice but to put the silver back into his arms and returned to the house in a daze.
At this time, the Ye family members were still gathered in the outer room of Ye Changnian's room, waiting for Boss Ye to come back with food.
Seeing him walk back with a bad look on his face, Old Lady Ye asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Is the food at the inn too expensive? If that doesn't work out, let's go out and find a restaurant. We can each have a bowl of noodles or wontons. It's quite comfortable to eat them hot."
Boss Ye glanced into the room and saw that Ye Changnian was sleeping soundly after taking the medicine. He then repeated what Qi Yaxin had just said.
When Mrs. Ye heard that the child's body had been found, she collapsed weakly on the chair and couldn't move for a long time.
Ye Laosan was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He stammered for a long time, but his throat was tight and he couldn't say a word.
Even though Old Lady Ye was the oldest and had experienced the most, she was still stunned for a long time after hearing this. Finally, she sighed and said, "Amitabha, our family is truly blessed by the Bodhisattva this time!"
Mrs. Ye San recovered a little at this time, and immediately staggered into the house, lying on the edge of the bed looking at her son's sleeping face, and even reached out to test whether he was still breathing before she breathed a sigh of relief.
She made up her mind that before going home, she would stay by her son's bed and would not leave no matter what.
The children in the family were so frightened that their faces turned pale.
Although deaths were nothing new during the escape from famine.
But this involves family members after all.
When they thought that Ye Changnian, who was usually so lively and lovely, might almost leave them forever, everyone felt an indescribable feeling in their hearts.
Qingtian turned around sadly and burrowed into Sister Ye's arms, whispering, "Mom, I've always been obedient. I'll be obedient even if you don't let me run around!"
"Well, Qingtian is the most obedient." Mrs. Ye hugged her daughter's soft body and stroked her hair. "You have to continue to be obedient in the future, otherwise, look at Brother Nian Nian, it will be so dangerous!"
"Yeah!" Qingtian buried his face in Sister Ye's arms and responded sullenly, "I don't want to be separated from my parents."
As the person directly involved in the incident, Ye Changxue was so frightened that his face turned pale.
If his brother was killed by human traffickers because he did not take good care of him, he would never feel at peace for the rest of his life.
Fortunately, my brother is okay.
Thinking of this, Ye Changxue turned his head to look at Ye Changnian who was sleeping in bed, and then looked at his parents who were standing beside him.
He suddenly walked forward and knelt down beside Ye Lao San and Ye San's wife.
"Dad, Mom, I was wrong today. I shouldn't have been so focused on looking around that I didn't keep an eye on my brother. Go ahead and hit me and scold me! I'll learn my lesson and never let this happen again."
Although Mrs. Ye was the most angry when the eldest child scolded the younger one, she could no longer lose her temper when she saw her son kneeling beside her and admitting his mistake.
She pulled Ye Changxue into her arms and said with a sob, "It's all mother's fault, I don't blame you.
"You and Nian Nian are my lifeblood. If anything happens to either of you, I won't be able to survive..."
Ye Lao San was listening on the side, thinking that the New Year was coming soon, and talking about the living and the dead was easy to violate taboos, so he quickly interrupted Ye San's wife and said, "Okay, the child knows he is wrong, don't cry anymore, be careful not to wake up Niannian.
"You go out and have some food with your sister-in-law and the others first. I'll just take care of Nian Nian."
Mrs. Ye San refused to leave no matter what.
"You guys go eat, and just bring me something when you come back. My heart is pounding when I can't see Nian Nian anymore."
Seeing this, Old Lady Ye called out to Ye Changxue and said, "Changxue, come here, let's have dinner together.
"Third brother, you stay with your wife at the inn and watch over Nian Nian. We'll bring you some food after we finish eating."
With Old Lady Ye's words, no one had any other opinions.
Such a large group of people did not dine in the inn, but instead went out to eat. Under normal circumstances, even if the innkeeper did not lose face, he would at least complain behind their backs that they were stingy.
But today, not only was he not dissatisfied at all, he even took the initiative to go out and help with directions, saying, "There's a restaurant not far ahead. Although it's run by a local, the home-cooked dishes are authentic, and most importantly, the prices are quite reasonable. People from our neighborhood occasionally go there to have a bite to eat.
"If you don't want to eat stir-fried dishes, there's a mutton restaurant not far to the south. They have mutton soup, mutton, and mutton offal. They also have mutton hot pot... But if there are too many people, it seems there won't be enough seats for the mutton hot pot.
"Or you can go to the west. There's a noodle shop there that's very famous here. Not only are the noodles chewy, but they also have over a dozen different kinds of臊子 (臊子)—quite a variety and flavorful!"
When Mrs. Ye heard this, she thought it was exactly what she wanted and immediately decided to go eat noodles.
The innkeeper was left staring at the family's backs, puzzled.
Seeing that the shopkeeper not only enthusiastically introduced the place to eat to the family, but also stood at the door and watched them walk away without coming back, the waiter couldn't help but follow him to take a look out of curiosity.
"Shopkeeper, are these family your relatives?"
"Of course not!" The shopkeeper raised his hand and flicked the clerk on the forehead. "My relatives are supposed to live in the top-class rooms? I'm even giving them a whole floor to live in? Am I crazy?"
The clerk thought about it and realized that this was the truth. He could only scratch his head and asked in confusion: "Boss, what are you thinking about here?"
“I thought, this family is really weird.
"First, the Qin family paid for them to book a room, and then the constables from Shuntian Prefecture came to give him money.
"But this family dressed so plainly, not wanting to be conspicuous, and even went to the cheapest noodle shop for meals.
