Chapter 162 No comparison, no harm
The Ye family’s New Year’s Eve dinner was very sumptuous. Ye Siran and Zhan Yunzhou were the chefs, and Ye Jingxiao and his brothers assisted. Together they prepared twenty-one dishes.
The braised pork is fat but not greasy, the fried chicken with dried mushrooms is tender but not dry...all are top-quality products.
Every dish was delicious and was served with wine and juice. The men drank wine and the women drank juice.
Everyone was eating and drinking and chatting. Grandpa Ye, his sons and a few big guys felt that they had never had such a delicious New Year's Eve dinner even in their highlight moments.
"Ranran, Yunzhou, and you guys have all worked hard. It's a pity that grandpa has no red envelopes to give you this year." Grandpa Ye said regretfully.
"Grandpa, let's owe you this year's red envelope. When we have the chance in the future, you must double it for us." Ye Siran said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, okay, double it, definitely double it." Grandpa Ye said happily, but in his heart he felt that it was impossible.
It is difficult for them to go back to the way things were before, but it is New Year's Day and he doesn't want to spoil everyone's fun.
When the other elderly people heard Grandpa Ye’s promise, they also patted their chests and made the promise with great enthusiasm.
"Ran Ran, when Master has money, I will definitely give you a red envelope bigger than your grandfather's."
"Ranran, if given the chance, Grandpa Zhan can definitely surpass your grandfather." Grandpa Zhan said generously.
There are several boxes of jewelry in the basement in the backyard of his old home!
When he has a chance to leave here, he will definitely dig it out himself, and he will definitely give his granddaughter-in-law double the amount and give her a super big red envelope.
"Come, I'll toast everyone, and then I'll wait to receive the red envelopes." Ye Siran raised his head and drank the juice in the glass in one gulp.
After three rounds of drinking, several old men were already a little tipsy, but the young people ate more meat and vegetables, and became more sober the more they drank.
While Ye Siran and the others were happily eating the New Year's Eve dinner, Ye Ruyue was lying weakly on the bed looking at the roof. She was cold and hungry but no one cared about her.
Because of her miscarriage, Song Chunhua went to prison as she wished.
Ye Jianping and his son each drank a bowl of hot water. It was New Year's Day. He didn't know how to cook, and mainly because there was no rice at home.
Even when he was a child in the countryside, he had never experienced such a tragic New Year. He was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.
Unfortunately, he didn't dare to hit his weak daughter for fear of going to jail.
He didn't want to hit his only son, so he slapped himself hard twice.
"Dad, why did you hit yourself?" Ye Weiguo asked weakly.
"Weiguo, Dad has let you down, so he deserves to be beaten." Ye Jianping apologized sincerely.
"Dad, you haven't let me down. Can you please bring my second sister back home? I haven't had a full meal since my second sister left."
"What? You haven't had a full meal since your second sister left? That shouldn't be the case. When your second sister just left, our family had no shortage of food."
“…”
Ye Weiguo was embarrassed to tell his father that his second sister's cooking was delicious but his mother's cooking was unpalatable, so he threw the food away capriciously.
Later, when he was so hungry that he no longer cared about the taste, the food at home became worse and worse, and there was no meat on the table.
He was so angry that he didn't want to eat and only ate half full at each meal. By the time he didn't have the energy to be angry, the house was short of food again!
Seeing his son hanging his head listlessly, Ye Jianping felt more and more that it was Song Chunhua who had harmed him.
"Weiguo, it's all your mother's fault. She forced your second sister to leave her hometown."
"Dad, we only drink water. If this goes on for a long time, will we starve to death?" Ye Weiguo asked worriedly.
"No, we'll go to your brother-in-law's house tomorrow to wish him a happy new year."
"Brother-in-law? Didn't he divorce my eldest sister? If my eldest sister hadn't snatched my second brother-in-law away, he would never have divorced my second sister."
