Chapter 166 Don’t Calculate Too Clearly
Shen Zhiyan said, “I’m sorry, Madam Ye, I don’t need your help.”
Ye Caiping glanced at his fish basket and found that there was not even a shrimp.
What is he not in need of? She thinks he needs it very much!
Ye Caiping's eyes were bright; she had already thought of a solution.
Thinking of this, she turned and left.
Shen Zhiyan didn't expect her to be so considerate, and was a little surprised, but he didn't take this little thing to heart.
Pull down the brim of your hat and continue fishing.
When Ye Caiping returned to the door of Shen's house, she asked the servant to call Shen Manman.
When the servant saw that the person was brought by his young lady in the morning, he was willing to deliver the message.
After a while, the servant came out and said, "Miss, you are allowed in."
"Thank you, bro."
Ye Caiping followed Xiao Si to the Shen family garden.
Shen Manman and Xiao Qiu were swinging, and they stopped when they saw her: "Why are you back, aunt? Didn't I ask you to find that young master?"
"I have already looked for it. I want to ask, does your brother go fishing there every day?"
Shen Manman covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed to death: "My brother? Hehehe..."
Ye Caiping was stunned by the laughter. Is this Miss Chen possessed by chicken spirit? Giggling.
“Miss Shen?”
"Ahem..." Shen Manman finally stopped laughing, "Yes. He goes there to fish after lunch every day. But his skills are terrible..."
He lowered his voice and said, "Since he started fishing, I have only caught two fish, and the largest was only a small fry two fingers wide."
Ye Caiping: “…”
Shen Manman continued to add: "Our lunch time is 2:45 p.m."
“Thank you, Miss Shen. I’ll go back first.” It will be easy once I get the time.
Looking at Ye Caiping's back, Shen Manman waved her handkerchief: "You work hard."
…
On Niutou Mountain——
Ye Yong and Hu Xiuxiu were groping around in the grass and were almost able to turn the mountain over.
Hu Xiuxiu sat down on the grass: "Brother Yong, we have been looking for a long time, but we haven't found even half a ginseng root. Where is the ginseng nest?"
Ye Yong wiped the sweat from his forehead, also speechless.
We are moving today, so he took a day off to do the moving.
Unexpectedly, his father suddenly pulled them over and said mysteriously that Niutou Mountain was a ginseng nest and asked them to go up the mountain and look for it.
It’s not enough to finish the morning’s work, they have to finish the afternoon’s work as well, which makes them speechless.
"The sun is about to set, let's go home!" Ye Yong picked up the backpack on the ground, which was filled with a basket of pig feed.
Hu Xiuxiu also carried her own basket, but only half of it, and the other half was carried to his side by Ye Yong.
The two held hands, looked at each other and smiled, then slowly walked down the mountain.
When I returned to Ye Caiping's house, Ye Caiping had already returned.
Ye Caiping said, "Why so late?"
Ye Yong sighed, "Dad told me to pay more attention, maybe I can dig up some ginseng."
Ye Caiping laughed when she heard this, thinking that Niutou Mountain was a ginseng nest.
"This is the last car." Mrs. Du's voice came from outside.
Ye Caiping, Ye Yong and others hurried out of the hanging flower gate, only to see Ye Daquan and his wife and Jinhua carrying things in one by one through the gate, with Erquan and Wei also helping.
Ye Caiping wanted to lend a hand, but Ye Daquan stopped her.
Old Mrs. Ye opened a back room next to the main door and put all the miscellaneous things of Ye Daquan's family in it.
Even though there are things in the big yard, there isn’t much that actually needs to be moved.
Except for Ye Daquan's wedding bed and the new furniture in Ye Yong's room, many of the beds, wardrobes, tables and chairs were in tatters and were simply thrown away.
As for the rooms, Jinhua and Ye Daquan and his wife both lived in the west wing.
However, Ye Yong and his wife lived in the back house of the outer courtyard, saying that it was next to the main gate and they would be the first to open the door.
Ye Xuan's things were also moved next to Ye Yong and his wife.
In the evening, everyone from the first and second wives had dinner at Ye Caiping's house.
After dinner, the whole family gathered in the yard, chatting and chatting. It was warm and lively.
Ye Caiping smiled, went back to her room and started working!
She took out flour, brown sugar, eggs, half a pound of shrimp paste and oil and put them one by one into a large bowl.
Then mix together with chopsticks.
In her previous life, she had a big client who was a fisherman. In order to get orders, she stayed in the fishing circle for a while.
She knows a little about making bait and bait for fish.
After the bait was made, she put it into the space. She stretched, walked to the yard, and sat next to Old Lady Ye.
"Little sister, this is for you." Mrs. Du took out five taels of silver and put it in Ye Caiping's hand.
"What is this for?"
"This is food. We live here, we can't eat yours."
Mrs. Du knew that Ye Caiping's family ate well and had rice and meat for every meal. We can't ask my younger sister to accommodate their family and eat less!
So she gave each person one or two taels of food, and her chickens were also driven here, so she could pick eggs for vegetables every day, which added up to about the same amount.
Ye Caiping smiled and said, "Last time my second brother built a house, I paid for his family's meals. Now that my eldest brother is building a house, I won't pay for the helpers' meals, but you don't have to pay for my meals, eldest brother and sister-in-law."
Mrs. Du said, "How can it be the same? The second brother's family had no money that time. Now we have twenty-four taels a month! We can afford this."
Ye Caiping smiled and said, "Then I'll accept it."
As he said that, he took it.
Old Lady Ye thought for a moment and said, "Old lady, you can't let the second lady's family know that you provide meals for Caiping. You don't want to embarrass her."
No matter what the situation is now, when Ye Erquan was building a house, Ye Caiping actually paid for the meals of the workers. Ye Erquan and Wei were both very grateful to Ye Caiping.
Mrs. Du provides meals now because she has enough money and she knows how to manage it.
But if word got out that Mrs. Du was providing extra food, she was afraid that the second wife would feel uncomfortable and would also have to pay back the meal money for the helpers.
But I have helped and I am grateful. Now you come back to pay back the money eagerly. It's not good to be too calculating.
Ye Caiping said: "What mother said makes sense."
Mrs. Du thought about it and understood. She grinned and said, "I don't know. Jinhua, Xiuxiu, you can't tell anyone, understand?"
Ye Jinhua and Hu Xiuxiu nodded quickly.
"It's getting late, everyone should go back to your rooms and get some rest," said Old Mrs. Ye.
Everyone stood up and went back to their rooms, talking and laughing.
Ye Yong and Xiu Xiu had just left the Chuihua Gate when Ye Caiping caught up with them, pulled Hu Xiu Xiu aside, and whispered:
"It will take at least three months for your family to build a house. During this time you..."
Hu Xiuxiu's face flushed: "I, I understand. I won't be with Brother Yong during this period..."
Before this, the couple had agreed that they could not get pregnant during this period. Otherwise, construction of the house would have to be stopped halfway.
Ye Caiping felt that it was too difficult for the young couple, but as newlyweds they had to endure it, and said with a smile: "You don't have to sleep separately, you just have to pay attention to the time. It's safer to sleep seven days before and eight days after the wedding."
Hu Xiuxiu was stunned: "Is there such a saying?"
"Yes, the doctor knows it."
"Okay, thank you, aunt..." Hu Xiuxiu was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
"Go back quickly! Haha."
