Tian looked puzzled and asked, "Why did you borrow four taels of silver?"
Grandma Ye moved her lips, "Well... there's just too much to do. Alright, alright, I'm going home to rest. I'm exhausted."
Back then, the Du family needed to build a house, and the original owner begged her to lend them more money to help them build the house.
Grandma Ye realized she had said the wrong thing and quickly went inside.
She slapped her own hand hard. "Ouch! I've really gotten too cocky!"
Ye Panjiu followed her into the house, both amused and exasperated, "Mother, I've already told you, it's alright."
Thankfully, my second sister-in-law was still setting up her stall in town today, otherwise she would have been even more ostentatious.
"When you get old, you just can't control yourself," Grandma Ye said listlessly.
"Mother isn't old yet, your daughter hasn't even built you a big brick house yet!" Ye Panjiu hugged Old Lady Ye.
Grandma Ye patted her on the back, "Oh, oh, Mother isn't old, Mother is waiting!"
Ye Taohua hugged Ye Panjiu from behind, saying, "Mother smells so good, and Grandma smells so good too!"
Ye Panjiu's eyes twitched. He's been setting up a stall all day, and his food is all marinated in the braising liquid. How could it not be delicious?
"We'll buy more meat this afternoon and make some braised dishes for everyone in the village. They've all been very helpful today."

Ye Lei then said, "Then I'll buy more meat this afternoon."
Ever since Matchmaker Li went to Butcher Wang's house to arrange the marriage, the Ye family has tacitly agreed that buying meat is Ye Lei's job.
You can't beat them even if you try.
"Where's Matchmaker Li? Why haven't we heard anything about the compatibility of the horoscopes?" Old Mrs. Ye asked, beckoning to Ye Lei.
Ye Lei scratched his head, "Grandma, it's only been less than a day..."
Grandma Ye sighed again, "I'm really getting old. It feels like several days have passed."
Ye Panjiu patted Grandma Ye on the shoulder, "Not old at all, it feels like quite a few days have passed!"
What she was hoping for was to pay off the debt as soon as possible. Now that she was debt-free, she felt much lighter and had saved up nearly a hundred taels of silver.
Having paid off their debts, the Ye family was now completely debt-free, and everyone had earned a considerable amount of money. Tonight, they planned to cook a few more dishes and buy some good wine to celebrate.
After lunch, Ye Lei drove his oxcart to town to buy meat.
