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 543: Focusing on Ye Laosi’s Marriage

“For this matter, I don’t know how many times my mother beat me when I was a child.

"She always said I didn't study hard enough, and why I could learn needlework so quickly, but cooking was so difficult.

"But like Qingtian said, I'm good at needlework, not cooking!

"My mother didn't even think about it. Can my father and she give birth to a child who can do everything well?"

Everyone laughed at what she said, but the truth was there, isn't that the case?

"Yeah, I never thought that even though we're all so old, we still can't think as clearly as a little girl like Qingtian."

"It seems that education makes all the difference. Seeing Qingtian, I almost want to send my daughter to school."

"If you want to give it, just give it. You can earn a lot by embroidering every day. It's nothing to support a child's education."

"I'd like to, but where can I send it?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the embroiderers who were excited just now fell silent.

That’s right, it’s not easy for girls to study.

When Qingtian heard them say this, the idea that was originally just a rough outline in his mind became clearer and clearer.

She must set up a college that only accepts girls in the future.

No matter how old you are, even if you are as old as Mrs. Ye, Mrs. Ye, or even Old Lady Ye, as long as you want to study, you can enroll.

Just as Qingtian was thinking about it, Mrs. Ye and Boss Ye came out from the east room and told everyone to stop working and come to eat.

Everyone put down their work one after another and went to wash their hands and prepare to eat.

There are too many people in the dumpling restaurant recently.

The Ye family members had not returned yet, and there were several new temporary workers in the kitchen, and there were also several embroiderers on Ye Ersao's side.

When eating at noon, we have to sit in three places, otherwise there will be no room for us to sit.

At the dinner table, Old Mrs. Ye suggested that it was time to return to the village.

"I had originally wanted to wait until you guys were less busy so we could go back together. We're waiting for the beams to be put up in the new house.

"But judging from the situation in the store these past two days, you probably won't have time to go back for a while.

"It just so happens that the second son's wife is busy too, so why not postpone it until you guys are done with this busy period?

"But these brats have to go back to school. If they stay any longer, their hearts will go wild."

Ye Changnian immediately protested, "No, my sister is teaching us to continue learning to read."

Everyone laughed when they heard this.

Mrs. Ye looked at her son speechlessly and said, "Let your sister teach you. Aren't you ashamed to say it out loud?"

"Why should I be shy? My sister is so smart!" Ye Changnian was not jealous or sad at all because he was not as good as Qingtian. Instead, he felt that this was justified!

When the adults in the family thought about it, they realized that this was indeed the case.

"Alright, let's go back tomorrow!" Boss Ye nodded. "I have nothing to do this afternoon, so I can take you out for a walk and see if there's anything you need to buy."

As soon as the children heard that they were going shopping, they all became interested.

But Old Lady Ye flatly refused, "Why buy anything? You have so much money to burn? We can eat all the vegetables in our garden now. We don't lack anything."

After lunch, except for Old Lady Ye and Qingtian, everyone else had no place to take a nap, so they could only find a place to close their eyes and rest for a while.

Before Mrs. Ye woke up from her nap, a rare customer came to the dumpling restaurant.

Hearing someone knocking on the door, Ye Changrui ran to open it. As soon as he opened the door and saw someone, he immediately turned around and shouted into the house, "Mom, my aunt is here."

Mrs. Ye hurried out of the house to greet them.

"Sister-in-law, what's the wind that brought you here today? Come in and sit down."

Shao smiled and said, "Sister-in-law is blaming me for not coming here often!"

"Then you have to come over more often in the future." Mrs. Ye also joked with her.

"I didn't come here for nothing today. I brought good news!" Shao said with a smile on his face.

When Mrs. Ye heard this, she had a vague premonition in her heart.

"Oh, then I'll quickly wake up the old lady."

Old Mrs. Ye was a little confused when she was called up. She asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Generally speaking, if there is nothing serious, her family members will not disturb her nap.

"Mom, Qingshan's wife is here and she said she has good news for us!"

"What good news?" Old Mrs. Ye didn't react for a moment.

"Mom, what do you think? What good news would make someone come here in such hot weather?"

Mrs. Ye finished her excited speech, and seeing that Old Madam Ye was still bewildered, she could only say bluntly, "It must be that there's news about the fourth son's marriage!"

"Oh!" When Mrs. Ye heard this, she instantly lost all her sleepiness, became completely awake, and quickly got up and came out.

Shao looked at Mrs. Ye, whose face was full of expectation, and said with a smile: "Auntie, I have finally lived up to your trust!"

Old Mrs. Ye smiled instantly.

"Really? That's great!

"Come on, come in and sit down, and talk to me."

"Ms. Zhou's parents have basically relented and gradually accepted this marriage.

"But they said that they wanted to have a meal together and meet their in-laws while you are still in the capital.

"First, I want to see what my mother-in-law and my brothers and sisters-in-law are like.

“Secondly, I also want to talk about the betrothal gifts and dowry.

“After all, their family conditions are good, I don’t know what our situation is.

"They said that if there is no problem with meeting the in-laws, we can exchange engagement cards."

When Mrs. Ye heard this, she became even more excited. This was almost the same as agreeing to it!
