Ye Dongming got the news from the county magistrate.
Ye Qingshan returned from the border and was named the Great General of the Nation.
To be honest, if the old Ye family had not returned from outside the Great Wall last year and done several impressive things, he would have forgotten who Ye Qingshan was.
"This... Ye Qingshan is not dead, and he has become a general?" Ye Dongming felt a little confused. Could it be that he was dreaming because he was drunk?
After the county magistrate told him about Ye Qingshan's legendary deeds, Ye Dongming gradually began to feel the reality.
This is actually a true story, I am not dreaming.
"I saw the paperwork distributed above, so I quickly invited you over so you can enjoy the fun too."
Of course Ye Dongming was happy. More than happy, he was almost going crazy with joy.
This is really a blessing from my ancestors!
You know, although the Ye family was once prosperous, it has shown some signs of decline in recent years.
The most direct manifestation is that fewer and fewer people can pass the imperial examinations, and correspondingly, fewer and fewer people can become officials.
Ye Dongming was very worried before. If things continued like this, the Ye family would be defeated in his hands.
Who would have thought that just when Wen Ju was unable to succeed in his career, a military general suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
He is the great general who protects the country!
As long as Ye Qingshan does not rebel, it will be enough to ensure that the Ye family will not fall into the hands of Ye Dongming.
After leaving the county government office, Ye Dongming didn't even bother to go home. He hired a car and went straight to Rongxi Village.
Along the way, he thought that since the Ye family came back from outside the Great Wall, their luck has been pretty good!
Unexpectedly, when they arrived at Rongxi Village and parked the car in front of Old Ye's house, Ye Dongming discovered that the door was locked.
He had no choice but to settle for the second best and go to the home of the village chief Wang Guangping.
"What?" Wang Guangping jumped up from the kang after hearing Ye Dongming's words. "Qingshan is the great general protecting the country?"
"Isn't it!" Ye Dongming asked happily, "Do you know where the old Ye family went? I have to tell them this good news quickly!"
"No wonder his family went to the capital on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month and hasn't come back yet. They must have known about this!"
"You went to the capital? Did you say when you would be back?"
"The Ye family is really patient. Qingshan has been back and lived here for more than ten days, but they haven't even mentioned this matter!"
"General Ye came back and stayed for more than ten days? Where did he go back to? To the village? How come I didn't even know about this?"
"Oh, Qingshan has really made great progress. His parents can finally rest in peace."
The two of them were talking back and forth, but neither of them was saying the same thing.
After talking at cross purposes for a long time, the two of them gradually calmed down.
Wang Guangping said, "Don't worry, Patriarch Ye. As soon as his family returns, I'll send someone to notify you."
"I still don't believe it. I won't leave this time. I'll wait for them in the village."
As a result, I stayed there for three days.
Ye Dongming was also anxious and strolled around the village entrance with his hands behind his back every day.
With him staying here, the news that Ye Qingshan had become a general quickly spread throughout the village.
After hearing the news, Ye Juaner first laughed, then cried, and finally ran out in a hurry.
"Oh, why are you going? His family has gone to the capital and hasn't come back yet. It would be a waste of time if you go now."
"What do you know? Who said I was going to his house?" Ye Juan'er quickly packed herself up and went straight to Wang Erniang's house.
"Oh, everyone's busy." Ye Juaner saw Wang Er chopping wood when she entered the room. "Is your wife's illness getting better?"
When Wang Er saw Ye Juaner coming, he couldn't help but glance at her face a few more times.
They are obviously the same age, so why does Ye Juaner look much younger than Wang Erniang?
The most important thing is that there is light in the person's eyes.
Looking at my own wife, not only is she sick, but she also has a face full of wrinkles.
Ye Juan'er was not in a good mood when he looked at her. She rolled her eyes at him and said, "I'm asking you a question. Is your wife home?"
"He's in the house, go in by yourself!" Wang Er said, and continued to chop wood.
It’s not that he likes working, but if he doesn’t chop wood, there will be nothing to burn at home today.
When Ye Juaner entered the room, she saw Madam Wang Er lying on the kang. Not only was her face pale, but her hair was also tangled and it seemed she hadn't washed it in ages.
I don't know where he learned this folk remedy, but he also tied a piece of cloth on his forehead, which looked weird.
The house that Wang Er's family is currently renting is shabby and drafty.
So Mrs. Wang Er heard Ye Juan'er talking to Wang Er in the yard in the house, and her attitude was very cold at this time.
"What are you doing here? Are you here to see if I'm dead or not?"
"I'm not you. I'm not that kind of person." Ye Juan'er was in a good mood today. She didn't bother to argue with Madam Wang Er. She smiled and said, "I just heard some great news, so I hurried over to tell you so you can share in the joy. Maybe this illness will be cured!"
Madam Wang Er looked at Ye Juan'er suspiciously, wondering what this woman was up to.
“I have good news for you. Not only did my Qingshan not die at the border, but he was also appointed a general by the emperor and given a large house in the capital.
"You may not know this yet, but the Qingtian family has come to Beijing these past few days and is staying in the Qingshan family's mansion."
Mrs. Wang Er listened to her words nervously at first, but she couldn't help herself at the end.
"Alright, even if you want to piss me off to death, at least make up a story that's plausible enough, and I might believe it a little.
