Chapter 3 Bringing my daughter back
When Old Mrs. Ye heard that she had to find a good husband for her daughter within three months, she became anxious.
But she also knew that she had to do it.
Old Mrs. Ye forced a smile and said, "Let's stop here. It's getting dark. Second son's wife, go cook!"
Ye Caiping said anxiously, "Wait, Zhao, Zhao... Di and Lai Di are still at the Li family, I have to bring them back. They are my daughters, they have to live with me."
The names of her two daughters were so hot that Ye Caiping felt a strong sense of shame in her heart.
Old Man Ye and others looked at Ye Caiping in astonishment.
Although the two girls were Ye Caiping's biological daughters, Ye Caiping did not like them. She complained every day that they were not boys, which made her unable to hold her head up and caused Li Zhiyuan to lose his family line.
Ye Caiping's mind also flooded with those unbearable memories, and she said awkwardly: "After we broke up, I realized how much I missed them."
Although Old Lady Ye and others felt that Ye Caiping had changed, they did not doubt it and just thought that she had changed because of a setback or a major event.
"After all, she is your biological daughter. But she is a girl from the Li family. Can you take her away?"
"So we have to snatch it!" A cold light flashed in Ye Caiping's eyes.
Old Man Ye pondered for a while. Although he felt that his chances of winning were slim, he was still willing to give it a try: "Daquan, go find the head of the village and tell him that we will go to Lijia Village again tomorrow."
Ye Daquan hurried out the door.
"Okay, let's all go and do what we need to do." Only then did Old Man Ye put down his pipe.
In the corner of the room, a thin young man stood up.
He was about fifteen or sixteen years old. His clothes were washed bleached but very clean, and his face was expressionless.
This is Ye Daquan’s second son, Ye Xuan. The big bastard who had to interrupt his studies because of the interference of the original owner.
Old Man Ye also noticed him and walked up to him: "Xuan'er, I am sorry for you."
Ye Xuan smiled bitterly: "I don't blame Grandpa, I only blame myself for not having the fate of studying."
Ye Caiping came over and said, "If I make enough money within three months, I will definitely hire a teacher for you!"
Ye Xuan's eyes flashed with sarcasm: "Little aunt, take care of yourself first! Don't marry a scholar next time. We can't afford to support you."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Mrs. Du, who was not far away, sneered: "This kind of talk about how I will do this and that in the future, and I won't get any benefits from you, it hurts my ears to hear it."
He snorted coldly and turned away.
Old Man Ye looked at their backs and sighed softly: "Don't blame your sister-in-law."
Ye Caiping nodded: "I don't blame her, I just hope she doesn't blame me! I'm a little tired, I'm going to go back and rest first!"
Old man Ye stared at his daughter's back in a daze. It seemed that his daughter was really different and seemed to have become more considerate of others.
But it is easy to change the country, but difficult to change one's nature. How long can she be this good? Old Man Ye didn't hold out hope.
…
Ye Caiping returned to her room and lay down to rest.
The room was fairly tidy, with a cabinet, a bed, a quilt, and yellowed coarse cloth nailed to the mud wall.
She was not idle while lying in bed, sorting out her physical situation and interpersonal relationships in her mind.
This is the Great Zhou Dynasty, an imaginary era where history does not exist.
The original owner’s father, Old Man Ye, was originally named Ye Youtian. My mother, Mrs. Ye, whose real name is Yan Fang.
The couple has two sons and one daughter.
When Old Lady Ye was pregnant with the original owner, Old Man Ye had a fight with someone over the irrigation of the fields and accidentally pushed Old Lady Ye down, causing her to give birth prematurely.
Finally, Grandma Ye gave birth to a little girl after a life-threatening situation. However, the little girl was so weak that she couldn't even cry, and it seemed that she could not be raised.
The couple was so worried that they cried every day.
Later, the two of them spent money to find a fortune teller to name their little girl Caiping, which means gathering peace. Because the five elements lacked wood, the name was changed to Caiping.
I don’t know if it was because of the good name, but my daughter finally survived, but she is still weak and sickly.
Naturally, Old Man and his wife put her first in everything, indulged their daughter without limits, and taught their two sons to give in to their younger sister in everything.
Who would have thought that the two sons would spoil their sister even more than they did. They wanted to tie her to their belts, and if her took one more step, the two brothers would feel distressed for a long time.
The eldest brother, Ye Daquan, married Ms. Du and had two sons and one daughter.
The eldest son, Ye Yong, is already 19 years old, but because his family is poor, he has yet to find a wife.
The second son, Ye Xuan, 16 years old, loved reading since he was a child, but was forced to drop out of school because of the original owner's unreasonable behavior.
The youngest daughter is Ye Jinhua, 14 years old.
The second elder brother, Ye Erquan, married Wei and had a son and a daughter.
My son’s name is Ye Peng, he’s 15 years old. My daughter Ye Yinhua is 9 years old.
There were not many people in the family, so Ye Caiping remembered it immediately.
The wound on Ye Caiping's forehead was a little painful. After all, that was the wound that killed the original owner, so how could it not hurt?
She reached for the bedside chest of drawers based on her memory and pulled out a box of healing medicine.
[Ding, I found a wound medicine with extremely poor efficacy, 3 cents a box. Sir, are you selling it? 】
A mechanical and emotionless voice sounded in my mind.
Ye Caiping was so shocked that she almost jumped up. Then, a light blue panel appeared in front of her eyes. This familiar platform...
Ye Caiping was stunned, and then her eyes turned red. This was a trading platform developed by her company, focusing on agricultural products and various traditional handicrafts.
This actually followed her here! The only change is that the unit has changed from yuan to wen. And you can buy and sell at will!
Ye Caiping was so excited that she wanted to try its function and clicked the "Yes" option.
Then, the golden medicine in her hand disappeared, and she had three copper coins in her hand.
It really works!
In this way, she will have more confidence in living here.
But... Ye Caiping looked at the three cents in her hand... she seemed to have lost money!
In the original owner's memory, golden wound medicine was an expensive item, and a small box cost 200 coins.
No way!
Ye Caiping kept swiping the screen, and then her heart calmed down.
On the recommendation page, rice costs 3 cents per pound and a bottle of Coke costs 3 cents.
Obviously, the prices in the mall are calculated according to modern currency, meaning 1 cent is equal to 1 yuan.
The golden wound medicine she just sold is an expensive item here, but in modern times, due to its poor efficacy, it naturally cannot be sold at a high price. It is indeed only worth 3 cents.
Ye Caiping wanted to buy back the medicine, but found that the price had increased and it now cost 5 cents!
Ye Caiping was speechless for a moment, then spent 3 cents to buy a bottle of iodine.
I gave myself some medicine and was wondering where to hide the thing when the mechanical voice in my mind sounded again:
[If you find that you have items to store, would you like to store them in the storage space? 】
Ye Caiping immediately pressed the "Yes" button, the iodine disappeared, and a small space the size of a box appeared on the screen.
[This is the initial space given by the system, 0.1 cubic meters. Spend 10 taels of silver to expand it to 1 cubic meter, and 100 taels to expand it to 5 cubic meters. 】
It didn’t say how much money would be needed to continue the expansion, but it’s clear that a prompt will appear only when it reaches 5 cubic meters.
Ye Caiping didn’t think it was expensive. After all, it was a life-saving measure and the price was justified.
…
When I woke up again, it was already the next morning.
Old Mrs. Ye brought a bowl of porridge and pickles: "You fell asleep yesterday, so I didn't call you for dinner."
Ye Caiping was also very hungry. She finished her meal in a hurry and said, "Let's go to Lijia Village!"
"Daquan has already called your uncle, the village chief. Come, drink this bowl of medicine."
Ye Caiping pinched her nose and drank it. Her face was almost twisted by the bitterness: "How much of this medicine is left?"
"There are still some for the evening. We'll catch them after we finish drinking."
"No... no need. Look how energetic I am now! I can walk and run. Just finish the rest."
Seeing that she was in good spirits, Old Lady Ye nodded.
Ye Caiping came to the main room wearing a half-worn coat. Old Man Ye and Ye Erquan were standing there with their hands in their hands, looking a little anxious.
After a while, Ye Daquan came in with two old men in their fifties and four women.
Ye Caiping identified them one by one according to the original owner's memory.
The leader was Ye Lizheng, who was a bit fat and had a gray beard.
Ye Lizheng is a close relative of their family. Going back four generations, they are brothers.
The other old man is Old Man Ye’s younger brother and her second uncle.
Among the four women who came, one was the village head’s wife and the other was her second aunt. The other two were the most aggressive young women in the village, only two or three years older than her.
"Uncle Village Head, Second Uncle, thank you for coming to help me." Ye Caiping said.
Ye Lizheng sighed softly, "We are all family, there is no need to thank each other. But let me be frank, we didn't win when we tried to seek justice for you yesterday. Today is even more difficult."
Second Uncle Ye sighed, "Zhao Di and Lai Di are maids of the Li family. I've never heard of either of them being... ahem, gone and still being able to take care of the children."
"Okay, okay, why are you saying such unlucky words?" said the village head's wife. "No matter if it works or not, I won't be satisfied until I try it."
"Thank you, uncles and aunts." Ye Caiping said.
She had already made a plan and could have gone by herself to get her two children back, but as the saying goes, it's better to lose the battle than the people, there is strength in numbers, and it's always good to have more people supporting you.
"It's getting late, let's go!" Old Man Ye said, and then turned around and said, "Erquan will go with you, and Daquan will stay at home."
Ye Daquan has an impulsive personality and I’m afraid he might do something bad.
Ye Daquan, who had just rolled up his sleeves and prepared to go to the Li family for a big fight, was about to refute when Old Man Ye glared at him.
Ye Daquan stopped talking silently.
