Sun held Ye Taohua's hand, touched it, and immediately turned it over, "Look at this, how come it's covered in calluses!"
Even before going to the academy, Ye Guihua's hands were not calloused; the heavy work was done by the adults.
Ye Taohua raised her eyebrows and saw the horse at home. "We actually have a horse at home!"
As he spoke, he broke free from Madam Sun's hand and immediately mounted his horse.
His movements were stylish and nimble.
Grandma Ye panicked and clutched her chest as she stood up, exclaiming, "Oh dear, please don't fall!"
Mrs. Sun was also anxious, "This child is acting like a monkey now."
Ye Panjiu, however, was quite proud. "Ling'er, did you mount your horse too?"
Ye Ling'er's eyes sparkled. "Mom, I went up too! Sister Peach Blossom carried me up."
Ye Taohua moved the reins, making the horse walk a few steps in place. "Grandma, Second Aunt, don't worry, the horse isn't scary at all!"
Ye Erniu and Old Man Ye exchanged a glance, both seeing disapproval in each other's eyes.
Old Man Ye said with a sigh, "I'll never be able to ride a horse in my life."
Everyone has a youth. When he was young, he also felt that he would be different from his father and could ride a horse and leave Qingshui County.
In the end, he spent his entire life in Qingshui County.
Ye Panjiu disagreed with him, "Dad, if you really want to ride, it has nothing to do with age. Just be careful."
Old Man Ye was stunned. He wanted to refute what his daughter had said at first glance.
Upon closer reflection, who said he couldn't ride a horse after he turned sixty?
Don't we have a horse at home now?
He can still pull a heavy plow to turn the soil, so why can't he climb onto the horse's back?
Liu stared blankly at the horse, finding it unbelievable that her little daughter was riding on its back.
But just thinking about it makes me feel incredibly happy.
Guan Muning sat on her unfamiliar bed, hugging her legs.
She was in a state of turmoil. The lights were on outside, and the voices of the Ye family members were drilling into her ears.
Once upon a time, she also had a home like this, but it wasn't as harmonious, and there was no praise or care. What she felt most at home was scolding and slapping.
Her own parents sold her to that beast Zhou Xinran so that they could get money for her brothers' weddings.
She was resentful; why was her life like this?
What did she do wrong?
She moved her head toward the food on the cabinet, hobbled over with her aching body, picked up her chopsticks with force, and began to eat heartily.
She was not reconciled! She needed to eat, because only when she was full would she have the strength to take revenge herself!
Kill anyone who gets in your way! An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!
The world owes her too much; she will transform herself into a knife and personally plunge it into the heart of her enemy!
Fortunately, the Ye family's backyard has now been completed, with two courtyards and eight side rooms in the backyard alone.
With the help of the whole family, Ye Daniu, Liu Shi, and Ye Guihua moved to the backyard tonight.
They also cleared out a room for Sun and Ye Erniu.
Before going to bed, Ye Panjiu was about to rub Ye Taohua's arm with medicated wine when Liu Shi came in.
"I'll massage Peach Blossom's body. I just massaged Osmanthus's body. Little sister, you don't feel well, so don't tire yourself out."
Ye Panjiu felt a warm glow in her heart; her sister-in-law was so considerate.
Ye Taohua groaned and cried out in pain.
Ye Ling'er covered her mouth and laughed. She was particularly envious of Sister Peach Blossom. Although she was her older sister, she was sometimes more lively than her, like her younger sister.
Ye Panjiu smiled and patted Ye Taohua's head, "Once your body gets used to it, it won't hurt anymore."
She felt sorry for the child's pain, but she also deeply understood a principle: behind every achievement lies hard work.
Spoiling a child is what truly ruins them.
The next day, the Ye family followed their usual routine and got up quite early.
The whole family sat together at the round table to eat breakfast.
"Crunch."
The door to the side room opened, and Guan Muning came out.
Liu was alarmed and quickly went to help her.
Guan Muning waved her hand, "It's okay, I can walk."
Ye Panjiu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the cold expression on her face.
People who don't want to live wouldn't do this.
"Eat more food, and you'll be healthier," she said, adding a chair next to her.
Guan Muning didn't say anything, nor did she pay attention to the others. She picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
The Ye family didn't say anything, and continued to eat while chatting casually.
After finishing their meal, Ye Panjiu pulled the four people on the oxcart aside, took out a bunch of things and put them on the oxcart, and then gave them some detailed instructions.
Ye Erniu frowned. "Little sister, will this work?"
Sun slapped his arm, "What kind of question is that? What has your little sister failed to do? Why are you still asking!"
Ye Panjiu smiled. Why was her second sister-in-law acting like a fangirl? "I've done everything I could think of. I'll leave the rest to time."
Sun smiled brightly, "Time favors the truth, which is right here with us now."
After seeing the four off, Ye Lei also rode in Ye Santian's oxcart and headed towards Bailu Academy to send his three younger sisters to school and to deliver braised food.
Rural people are hardworking, and those who came to help build the house also came. Old Man Ye and Old Woman Ye were busy building the house with great enthusiasm.
The entire Ye family home suddenly became quiet.
Ye Panjiu knocked on Guan Muning's door, "Miss Guan."
Guan Muning stiffened for a moment, then put a shard of porcelain in her sleeve before getting up to open the door for her.
As the night passed, she felt that the Ye family didn't seem to want to harm her, but she was still on guard.
"This is the medicine my sister-in-law brewed for you." Ye Panjiu stood at the door with a smile on her face, holding a ceramic bowl.
Guan Muning picked up the bowl and prepared to drink it all in one gulp.
Ye Panjiu quickly called out, "It's hot, let it cool down before you drink it!"
Guan Muning took the bowl down again and looked at her with a puzzled expression.
"May I come in and sit for a while?"
Guan Muning reluctantly stepped aside.
Ye Panjiu didn't mind and went inside to sit down. "I know you're still very scared. Being wary is a good thing."
Ye Panjiu looked at the little girl tenderly. Her belly was slightly protruding, and she was very thin, looking like she had hardly any flesh on her bones.
She suddenly asked, "Miss Guan, how old are you this year?"
Guan Muning stiffly uttered two words, "Seventeen."
Ye Panjiu sighed inwardly; she was so young, only five years older than Tao Hua.
"I know you're focused solely on revenge right now, but your health should be the most important thing. What do you think about your child?"
Guan Muning remained expressionless, not uttering a single word.
Ye Panjiu didn't insist, but got up and left a plate of candied fruit on the table. "These are what Tao Hua and the others like to eat. The medicine is bitter, so eat this after you finish the medicine to get rid of the bitterness."
She felt that it was not easy to communicate with Guan Muning right now, so she decided to let her take better care of her health.
“I don’t mean to restrict your freedom, but you are very weak right now, so it’s best if you don’t leave the Ye family for the time being.”
Guan Muning touched the broken porcelain shards in her sleeve pocket without saying a word.
