At night, the stars twinkled in the sky, and slowly the crescent moon appeared, as if smiling at people.

"Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are!"

"…………"

"Let the light shine—".

At the Ye family home, Ye Tianyong, who was resting and catching up on sleep on the kang (a heated brick bed), suddenly had a whimsical thought and said, "My dear wife, it's been so long since I've seen you... I miss you terribly."

Wang Yitong………

No, what's going on?

What's wrong with her husband? He goes out to work and comes back to do this.

Strange...

How should I put it?

Before she could even think of it, Ye Tianyong, who had gotten up, grabbed her and pulled her onto the kang (a heated brick bed), where they began a friendly conversation.

The great unity of life lies in harmony.

The birds outside the window are chirping away.

I spent a sleepless night.

The next morning, as soon as the sisters-in-law stepped out of the house, they all rubbed their limbs as if by coincidence, then faced each other, blushing, and went into the kitchen without saying a word.

It was a little awkward.

It's all because the men in my family are too noisy.

"Pfft~ Pfft hahahahahaha" A burst of laughter came.

As the saying goes: Who is laughing so madly?

Wang Yitong came to her senses and listened carefully; the sound was coming from someone very close to her.

Second Sister-in-law is a well-educated, polite, and refined woman; it couldn't possibly be her. It's most likely the rude and straightforward Eldest Sister-in-law, Lin Wan.

Sure enough, it was my sister-in-law.

She was laughing so hard her jaw was agape, it was absolutely astonishing, and incredibly cool.

"Sister-in-law, please slow down your laughter," Wang Yitong said while kneading the dough.

Zhou Xiaoyun also chimed in with concern, "That's right, Wanwan, listen to Tongtong, laugh slowly, don't laugh until you're breathless, or you'll feel uncomfortable."

Lin Wan thought about it and agreed. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, okay... I'll laugh slower. Thank you for your concern, sisters."

In this way, Wang Yitong, Lin Wan, and Zhou Xiayun each took turns saying a sentence, and breakfast was ready in the blink of an eye.

For breakfast, I made a delicious and visually appealing mixed soup. It looked very appetizing, with white dough dumplings mixed with bright green vegetable leaves that looked like precious gems, and topped with gorgeous cherry tomatoes. It was absolutely amazing and incredibly delicious.

There's also a plate of smashed cucumber; it would be even better with some wine.

But with so much work to do early in the morning, who has time to drink and listen to music?

It's best to just dream about these things.

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, Ye Tianyong and his family went to the county town, where they still needed to operate their skewers shop to earn money, so they couldn't stay in the village any longer.

Sometimes, making money means accepting separation from family, since there will be plenty of time to reunite in the future.

At Lao Ye's skewers shop:

"Daddy, is Beijing pretty? Is it beautiful? Is it interesting? Are there lots and lots of people?" Xiao Mingchen asked curiously.

Seeing his son bombarding him with questions one after another, Ye Tianyong was at a loss for words and could only laugh and scold, "You brat, why do you ask so many questions every day? Hurry up and finish your studies before talking about these things."

Xiao Mingchen muttered to himself, "If you're not going to ask, then don't ask. Why be mean to people?"

These words gave everyone present goosebumps. "So girly! It's terrifying!" Yingbao patted her chest.

The second brother, Ye Haoyu, teased his younger brother, Ye Mingchen, saying, "Little San'er, you're good for nothing. You're the best at eating, but I never expected you to be the best at curiosity too. I'm truly impressed by you."
