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 still felt regretful that he only had one leopard skin, and muttered, "When there's a chance in the future, I'll definitely find a way to get you another one."
"Come on, forget it, didn't you promise me that you would stay in the capital and work honestly from now on, and never go out again?
Boss Ye suddenly remembered this matter.
He slapped his forehead and said, "But I'm going to the Changbai Mountains with Prince Rui in the spring of next year..."
“This is serious business, so of course I have to go.
"With so many guards following Prince Rui, I have nothing to worry about."
"That's good." Boss Ye breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Sister Ye agreed, it would be fine. "I heard from Boss Cheng that if we really find a gold mine in Jiapigou, we might even be given a small official position!
"It will truly bring honor to our family then."
"You have to be an official in the capital. If Prince Rui leaves you in the deep mountains and forests, even if I give you the title of King of Beasts, you'll have nowhere to cry!"
Mrs. Ye was just joking with Boss Ye, but Qingtian subconsciously explained for Prince Rui: "Mom, no, father is not that kind of person. He really wants to help Dad."
Upon hearing this, Boss Ye and Mrs. Ye looked at each other and saw relief in each other's eyes.
After spending some time together, Qingtian finally began to accept that Prince Rui and Princess were his parents, and he also began to unconsciously say some words to protect them.
The two people tacitly agreed not to bring this matter up.
Boss Ye said with a smile: "Your mother is joking with me!
"Prince Rui has helped us a lot, your mother and I will always remember it!"
After Boss Ye finished dealing with the mountain products, he gave all the money he earned to Sister Ye, and the next day he quickly hitched a cart and returned to the village.
The daughter-in-law and children are important, and the mother cannot be left behind!
Boss Ye brought a piece of black bear skin to Old Lady Ye.
"Mom, you are old and afraid of the cold. I will ask my second daughter-in-law to make this for you later, so that you won't always complain that it is too cold to go out in winter."
"Oh, why should I, an old woman, wear bear skin?" Old Mrs. Ye didn't expect that her son still cared about her.
Touching the smooth black bear skin, Old Mrs. Ye didn't know what to say.
I didn't expect that as I live to an old age, I will enjoy more and more blessings from my children and grandchildren.
"Mom, just rest assured and use it. If you need any help or chores around the house, just tell me and I'll take care of it for you when I get back."
"I eat and sleep well at home every day, so what could possibly happen?" Old Lady Ye said, "But I do have something I want to discuss with you brothers. When do you think we can get everyone together?"
"Oh, it's hard to get together right now!" Boss Ye blinked, not knowing what he was thinking about. "The second brother has been free recently after finishing his farm work, but the third and fourth brothers are busy. How about I pick you and the second brother up and we go into the city to talk?"
Under normal circumstances, Old Mrs. Ye would not bother to go through all this trouble.
But unexpectedly, she thought about it and nodded, "Okay, there's a car at home, so take the children and go to the capital to settle this matter."
The discomfort that Boss Ye had just felt became more and more obvious, and his expression changed slightly. He wondered if the old lady was in a hurry to divide the family property.
Although according to convention, a situation like the Ye family should have been separated long ago.
Moreover, now everyone in the family lives their own life and keeps their own money, which seems to be no different from dividing the family.
However, as long as there is no clear written separation agreement and no formal separation, people will always feel psychologically that they are still a family.
When we first fled the famine, everyone wanted to split up the family because of Guo's troublesome sister-in-law.
But now the four brothers all live in harmony. Even Miss Zhou, who has just been engaged to the fourth brother, has long been getting along with her three sisters-in-law like real sisters.
So before Boss Ye went outside the Great Wall, he had already discussed this matter with his brothers in private.
Everyone agreed not to split up the family for now.
After all, we still have the elder, Old Lady Ye, so there’s nothing wrong with the whole family being closer.
In this way, Old Mrs. Ye still has a home.
Otherwise, if the four brothers were separated, only Old Mrs. Ye would be left alone at home.
Even though all four sons are filial, they are willing to let her live in their own home in her old age.
But for Old Mrs. Ye, she was still living in someone else's house, and she definitely wouldn't feel comfortable.
Thinking of this, Ye Lao Da couldn't help but ask: "Mom, what important matter are you going to talk to us about? Is it about the fourth brother's marriage?"
"The fourth child's wedding will have to wait until next year, so there's no need to rush." Upon hearing this, Old Madam Ye looked up and glanced at the eldest child, "Of course, this time we're going to discuss the children going to the capital to study!
"Didn't we say before that after the autumn harvest, we would find a way to send the children to study in the capital?
"What? Have you, a great man like you, forgotten everything? Chang Xue has been looking forward to this for a long time!
"He has a natural talent for studying and has been taught by Mr. Wei. He's long been fed up with the old, clichéd stuff taught in the village private school."
Ye Lao Da had really forgotten about this matter. When Old Lady Ye mentioned it, he slapped his forehead and said, "Yes, yes, this matter must be dealt with as soon as possible. I'll go tell the second brother now."
"Go quickly and have them pack up. We can stay a few more days there. The second son has been awarded the title of Grain King. I heard he will be rewarded and given silver. Maybe he can even go to the palace to see the emperor!"
