Only then can you go up the mountain to cut down trees, and the number of trees you can cut down must be based on the age of the trees. You are absolutely not allowed to touch young trees.

Chen Ye walked around and picked up things, and when he got out of the mountain, he had picked up a small bundle of dead branches.

"Ye Zi, are you out of firewood at home?"

"Yes, Aunt Chuncao, are you also going up the mountain to collect firewood?"

"No, there's still firewood at home. I just came to see if there are any fresh wild vegetables growing. Your grandma wants to eat some wild vegetables."

"Oh, I really didn't notice. Then you can watch me slowly and I will go back first."

"Go back quickly. I'll check to see if there's any food at home. If there's no food at home, you can go to your aunt's house for dinner."

Chen Ye pursed his lips and smiled: "There is food at home, thank you Aunt Chuncao."

"What are you thanking me for? Go back quickly. You didn't sleep all night. Go back and get some rest."

"Hey, I'm leaving, aunt."

After returning home, Chen Yesong breathed a sigh of relief. She felt relieved after sending away the things stored at home. She always felt that Chen Laoer would never leave so honestly, and she didn't know what big tricks he had planned for her later.

She went to the place where the grain was stored, took out the few remaining coarse grains in the house, found a bowl, carried the coarse grains and left the house.

Chen Laoer patted his butt and left, but she couldn't do that. She still had to live in the village in the future. How could she not show any appreciation to the people who came to help today?

Not to mention that what happened today is not a happy occasion. If you don't show any appreciation at all, when you encounter difficulties in the future, anyone who wants to help will have to think about whether it is worth it first.

It is impossible to go to every family. We have to go to those who carried the coffin today, dressed the two old people yesterday, and helped dig the hole and fill the soil today.

"Hey, why are you here, Ye Zi? Is there something going on at home?"

"Grandma Zhang, my uncle Datong is not at home?"

"No, I went to the fields. If you have any questions, tell Grandma Zhang. Is there no food at home? Wait, Grandma Zhang will get it for you."

Chen Ye quickly stopped the old lady who was about to get the food: "No, Grandma Zhang, I still have food at home. Uncle Datong came over to help today, and I came to thank Uncle Datong."

"There's no extra cloth at home to make cloth bags, so I can only carry the grain bag here. I don't have any extra, so just give each family a bowl of coarse grain, Grandma Zhang, don't be disgusted."

The old lady quickly refused: "It's not a big deal, I can't take your food. It's not easy for you to live alone, take it back quickly."

Chen Ye didn't give anyone a chance to refuse. He scooped a bowl of whole grains and sent it to Grandma Zhang's kitchen. "This is a must. If it's something else, I definitely won't come to thank you. Please don't argue with me."

The old lady also knew that funerals were unlucky, and generally people who came to help or do things would give something as a thank you, also to get rid of the bad luck, so she didn't argue with Chen Ye too much.

"Okay, Grandma Zhang will accept it. Don't be so extravagant when you live alone in the future. If there is no food at home, you can come to Grandma Zhang's house for dinner."

"Hey, I definitely won't be polite to Grandma Zhang. I'll be leaving first, Grandma Zhang."

"Go ahead, and come talk to me when you have time."

Chen Ye carried half a bag of grain and delivered a large bowl of coarse grains to each household. Everyone who helped was very satisfied. Although Ye Zi is honest and doesn't talk much, he is particularly good at dealing with people.

Every family needs a bowl of coarse grains, but this behavior makes people feel comfortable.

When Chen Ye returned home, the bag of grain was almost empty. She didn't feel bad about sending out the grain. If it weren't for those two old people, she wouldn't know how good her life would have been.

Although she is young, she started learning martial arts from her grandfather who had just returned from the army when she was five years old. In addition, she was naturally stronger than her peers. At the age of seven or eight, she dared to go into the woods alone to find food.

Thanks to her smart brain, she can learn anything she wants. In the words of the village doctor Grandpa Luo, she looks thin but has a very good foundation. Her good physique makes her learn martial arts faster than others.

Look at the tattered clothes she wears. It's not that she doesn't have money to buy herself better clothes, but she just can't wear them outside to attract attention. After all, she has been a poor little cabbage in the eyes of the villagers since she was a child.

If you are a child without parents and not even liked by your grandparents, and you eat well and dress well, wouldn't that make people suspicious?

"Sister Ye Zi."

Chen Ye turned around and saw a little head sticking out of his door. Chen Ye smiled and waved at the little head: "Here it is, come in quickly."

Shuanzhu's full name is Tan Cheng. He is a child adopted by his grandfather. He was just five years old when he came here and was very timid. At that time, Old Man Chen and Old Lady Chen were still in good health. Chen Ye stayed outside all day and took care of this little guy every day.

Shuanzhu walked in carefully and didn't hear any cursing. He suddenly remembered what his grandfather said, that his great-grandfather and great-grandmother were gone, and he could come and play with Sister Ye openly from now on.

Thinking of this, Shuanzhu jumped into the door and said, "Sister Ye, can I come over to play with you every day in the future?"

"Of course, I won't be tied up when someone scolds me. Come here, little grandpa, do you know?"

Shuanzhu nodded: "Grandpa knows I came to see you, and he asked me to ask you to come over for dinner, saying that you must not have eaten well these past few days."

If she hadn't mentioned eating, she wouldn't have noticed. But as soon as she mentioned eating, she felt her stomach burning with hunger. It seemed like she hadn't eaten all day. She started busying herself as soon as she opened her eyes in the morning, and only now did she calm down.

He held Ye Zi's hand and said, "Sister Ye Zi, please come back with me to eat."

In the past, when he came to ask Sister Ye to go home for dinner, Sister Ye rarely agreed to go back with him for dinner, saying that it would cause trouble if her great-grandfather and the others knew about it.

This time, Chen Ye agreed straightforwardly: "Okay, we can leave right now."

When Old Man Chen and the others were still alive, if they heard that she was in contact with the young grandfather, they would not give her food for many days and would scold her all day long. Sometimes, Old Woman Chen would even go to the young grandfather's house to make a scene.

She didn't want to cause trouble for her grandfather, so she seldom went to his house. She only went there often when she was young. At that time, she had just started learning martial arts and was really short of words.

Shuanzhu's eyes lit up: "Really, Sister Ye, you really agreed?"

Chen Yehulu grabbed the tied hair and said: "I promised, let's go, let's go now."

She just wanted to go and tell her grandfather about building a house, and she also planned to leave in the next few days to see her father, whom she had never met, and her mother, whom she had not seen since she remarried.

Now that the two old ones are gone, it's time to regain my freedom.
