The next morning, Ye Qingshan was awakened by a rustling sound.

He jumped up cautiously and looked towards the door with sharp eyes.

The children crowded at the door were frightened by him in an instant and dared not move.

Only Qingtian, the shortest one standing at the front, lost his balance and fell to the ground.

The children behind came to help in a panic, and the situation became chaotic again in an instant.

Ye Qingshan rubbed his forehead, glanced outside, and saw that it was indeed dawn, so he prepared to get up.

After Qingtian was helped up, he trotted over, leaned on the edge of the kang, looked at Ye Qingshan and said, "Uncle, you're up!"

Ye Qingshan thought to himself, isn’t this nonsense?

But looking at Qingtian's cute appearance, he still tried to force a smile and nodded.

Seeing him smile, the other boys immediately rushed over and put the things in their hands on the kang.

"Uncle, these are the cotton-padded jacket and trousers my mother asked me to bring. My mother said that you are about the same height as my father, so you should be able to wear them."

"Uncle, these are the clothes and pants my mother asked me to get for my father, but he hasn't worn them yet.

"My mother said it might be a little big, so she asked you to wear it for now."

The one in front quickly made amends, "Although these cotton-padded jackets and trousers were worn by my father, they have been taken apart and washed clean. Please don't despise them, uncle."

There was also a little fat boy holding a pair of shoes and trying to put them on the kang, but fortunately he was stopped by the oldest child.

"Just put the shoes on the ground."

"Oh!" The little fat boy put his shoes on the ground and said, "Uncle, these are the shoes my fourth uncle asked me to get for you. They are made of roe deer skin and are very warm."

The three brothers all brought things, but the eldest brother Ye couldn't use anything because his size was too different from Ye Qingshan's.

Qingtian said anxiously, "Uncle, my mother has prepared breakfast, you should get up and eat! My mother's cooking is delicious!"

This sudden offer of warmth left Ye Qingshan stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.

Ye Changrui suddenly thought of something, reached out and grabbed Qingtian, saying, "Let's go out first, otherwise my uncle won't be able to change his clothes."

So the children followed Ye Changrui out and kindly helped him close the door.

Ye Qingshan looked at the cotton jacket and trousers on the kang. He reached out and touched them and found they were still warm. He guessed that they had been warmed up on the kang before.

He put on his cotton coat and trousers, and felt even warmer in his heart.

Ye Qingshan put on his clothes and went downstairs to put on his shoes. He found that his shoes were also warm. For a moment, his nose felt a little sore.

After so many years of fighting outside, even though I already have a wife and children, it is really lonely without other relatives around me.

I never expected that when I suddenly decided to return to my hometown, I could still feel the care and warmth my parents gave me when they were still alive.

Ye Qingshan walked out of the room wearing this outfit. The table in the main room had been set up. On the table was a large pot of dumpling soup, a basket of steamed buns, flower rolls, sugar buns, red bean paste buns, and several side dishes.

Seeing him leave, Boss Ye first looked him up and down, then said with a smile: "Not bad, the clothes fit well. Are the shoes too small?"

Ye Qingshan took two steps subconsciously and said, "It's not small, it's quite suitable."

"As long as it's suitable, wash your face and come over for dinner."

Old Mrs. Ye ate in the house with the women and children, and only the four brothers and Ye Qingshan were in the outer room.

We all drank together last night, so it felt a little less awkward sitting together now.

Ye Laodao said: "After breakfast, we must go and tell our aunt. If she knew that Qingshan was meeting two people, she would be very happy."

"That's right. I was so happy yesterday that I forgot about it. When our aunt comes over later, she will definitely tell us about it."

"Old Four, you go later!"

"I'm not going. Let the kids go."

Ye Qingshan was completely confused. Didn’t his father have two brothers? Where did this aunt come from?

"Oh, we are talking about Ye Juan'er, cousin, do you still remember her?"

Ye Qingshan finally had an impression and nodded, saying, "Although they are distant relatives, they had a good relationship with our family back then."

"We don't know much about our family's past situation, but when we returned to the village before, our aunt helped us a lot, so we visited each other frequently."

"Very good." Ye Qingshan nodded, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Boss Ye noticed his discomfort and said, "Eat quickly and drink more dumpling soup. You drank too much last night. It will be more comfortable to drink something warm in the morning."

"Okay!" Ye Qingshan took a sip of the dumpling soup as he was told. The warm noodle soup, along with the tiny dumplings and chopped cabbage leaves, slid into his stomach. It was indeed very soothing and comfortable.

He drank two large bowls of dumpling soup in one breath, and then ate several steamed buns and flower rolls.

When he wanted to reach out and take more food, he found that the basket had been eaten up.

Ye Qingshan was shocked. He actually forgot to control his food intake. He would definitely be disliked for eating so much.

Unexpectedly, when Boss Ye saw that he had taken advantage of the situation, he hurriedly said, "Don't worry, your sister-in-law has gone to get it and will be here soon."

Before he could finish his words, Mrs. Ye came in with a bowl of freshly heated steamed buns and flower rolls. She poured them into the basket on the table and said with a smile, "I'm afraid if I take out too much at once, they'll get cold quickly. There's more in the pot. Eat as much as you want. All you can eat!"

Seeing that the Ye brothers also reached out to take the food and continued to eat, Ye Qingshan felt relieved. He scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said, "I eat too much."

"You guys have such a hard time in the military, it's normal for you to eat a lot.

"Actually, we both have big appetites, you'll know later."
