After going home to rest for a day, it was the New Year's Eve.
The cooking competition lasted for two days. All the young and old members of the Ye family took part in the competition. They all went into the city to cheer for Mrs. Ye.
The night before, everyone went to bed early, and the next day everyone got up earlier than the other.
Who knew that Mrs. Ye was earlier than everyone else. When Old Mrs. Ye got up, she was already busy in the kitchen.
"Hey, eldest daughter-in-law, what are you doing so early in the morning?"
"Mom, didn't you say yesterday that you would go out early today? I can't sleep anyway, so I might as well get up and make breakfast for everyone."
"Oh, we don't need you today!" Old Mrs. Ye quickly snatched the apron from Mrs. Ye's hand, "Go back to the room and rest, let the second and third sons' wives do it.
"If you want to cook, you can still do it during the cooking competition!"
"That's right, sister-in-law, we are here, why do we need you?" Ye Ersao said as she walked in from outside.
Sister-in-law Ye followed closely behind and said, "That's right, sister-in-law, you got up too early. Even if I hurry, I'm still later than you."
Upon hearing this, Ye Ersao smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you can't wait to go out and kill everyone."
Listening to the words of her two sisters-in-law, Sister Ye could only force a smile and said, "Then I'll trouble you today. I'll go into the house and wake the father and son up."
Coming out of the kitchen, Mrs. Ye sighed. Everyone thought she was sure to win, but in fact she was extremely nervous.
To be precise, she didn't get up early today, but she didn't sleep much last night.
When Mrs. Ye returned to her room, she found that Mr. Ye had also woken up and was struggling with Qingtian, who was whining and refusing to get out of bed.
When Qingtian saw Mrs. Ye come in, he immediately stopped playing tricks and got up.
"Mom, I'm up!"
“Good boy!”
When Boss Ye saw his daughter got up, he quickly folded her bedding to prevent her from falling back into it later.
In fact, Mrs. Ye tossed and turned and couldn't sleep last night, so how could Boss Ye sleep soundly on his own?
The only person in the room who slept well was probably Sunny.
"I'll take Qingtian out to wash up, and you should tidy yourself up."
Mrs. Ye thought, why bother to dress up before cooking? As long as she dressed neatly and appropriately and combed her hair to prevent it from falling into the dishes, it would be enough.
Especially since cooking produces a lot of fumes, and clothes might be stained with blood, seasonings, etc., so Mrs. Ye chose a half-worn dress, tied her hair into a smooth bun, inserted a silver hairpin, and felt that it was enough.
Boss Ye had just finished brushing his daughter's teeth and was about to go back to the house. When he saw how Mrs. Ye was dressed, he couldn't help but feel hesitant to speak.
But before he could say anything, Qingtian clapped her hands and said, "Mom looks so pretty today!"
"Oh, why are you dressing up?" Mrs. Ye said this, but a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
In the end, Boss Ye swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
He knew that Mrs. Ye was already very nervous and he could not help her in the cooking competition. The only thing he could do was to support her unconditionally and not add any more pressure to her.
After dinner, Boss Ye went to Ye Juaner’s house to get the mule cart that he had agreed to borrow.
The Ye family is large, and Old Mrs. Ye took her three daughters-in-law in one car, and six children were crammed into another car.
The four brothers took turns driving, and the one who was not driving would go to the second car and join the children.
Because we got up too early, the children in the car fell asleep not long after we set off.
Ye Laosan rested his legs on four pillows, and even though his legs were numb, he didn't dare move.
Ye Laosan hugged Ye Changnian with his left hand and Qingtian with his right hand. Looking at the two of them sleeping, he couldn't help but think of the child that Guo was pregnant with. He didn't know whether it was a boy or a girl.
The child died before he even had a chance to see this world...
Ye Laosi sighed softly in his heart.
Fortunately, after receiving comfort from his family during this period, he has now learned to regulate his mood.
Soon you will stop worrying about the past.
But when he thought about how Old Lady Ye was eager to arrange a new marriage for him after the Chinese New Year, he became worried again.
It’s not that he loved Guo that much, but he was hurt too deeply by his previous marriage and he really didn’t have the mood or energy to immediately get involved in a new marriage.
This will not only make you feel exhausted, but it will also be unfair to the girl, right?
I should wait until my sister-in-law finishes the cooking competition and then talk to her and ask her to help persuade my mother.
Ye Laosi was thinking about this along the way when he suddenly heard a noise coming from outside the car window. He was shocked to realize that he had already arrived in the county town.
"Didn't we agree to take turns driving the cart? Why didn't the eldest and second brothers call us?" Ye Laosi stretched his neck to look outside.
Ye Lao Er, who was sitting on the shaft of the cart, heard this and said, "It's such a short distance and we have to change drivers. It's not enough to bother you. You want to drive the cart? I'll let you drive as much as you want when we get back."
I don’t know if it’s because today is the Little New Year or because of the cooking competition, but there are so many cars and people outside the city gate.
The two cars of the Ye family waited in line for a long time before they finally entered the city.
As soon as I entered the city, I heard a familiar voice shouting on the side of the road: "Brother Ye, Brother Ye, this way!"
Everyone turned their heads and saw Wang Ge shouting and waving his arms in the crowd on the roadside, with Lin Yumei and Feng Yueying standing beside him with smiles on their faces.
"Why are you here?" asked Boss Ye.
"Today is Madam You's big day, how could we miss it? We've already calculated the time and been waiting here!" Lin Yumei said with a smile, then turned to Wang Ge, "See what I said? I said the Ye family would definitely come early. If we had listened to you, would we have been able to pick them up?"
