It was already noon when Boss Ye finished talking with Ye Qingshan.
Everyone had lunch at the general's mansion.
After lunch, Ye Qingshan left early because of some business in the afternoon. Shao chatted with Old Lady Ye for a while, and then was urged by Old Lady Ye to go back and rest.
After Shao left, Old Mrs. Ye sent the children to take a nap and then gestured for the door to be closed.
Ye Laosan quickly got up and closed the door.
After only her family members were left in the room, Old Lady Ye said, "The fourth child's injury looked serious at first, but I've been watching him for the past two days and asked Doctor Tao.
"It looks like it's nothing serious, just change the dressing on time and take good care of it.
"So there's no need for our whole family to stay here and cause trouble for Qingshan.
"Besides, the crops in the fields can't always be left unattended, and it's not convenient for the third child to be away from the woodworking workshop for too long. If so many children stay here, it will be noisy, and they will fall behind in their studies if they stay away for too long.
"If you have nothing to do, go back. I'll stay and look after the fourth child. I'll go back to the village when he's better.
"Do you have any objections to this arrangement?" After Mrs. Ye finished expressing her own thoughts, she began to solicit everyone's opinions.
Ye Lao Er and Ye Lao San both shook their heads to indicate that they had no objection.
Third Sister-in-law Ye said, "Mother, I don't have any objections, but Second Sister-in-law wants to stay in the city for a few more days.
"Firstly, I wanted to visit the silk and satin shops and the garment shops.
"Secondly, my sister-in-law helped her get some business, so I went to visit them while I was in Beijing.
"I can also take their measurements and discuss the style.
"Right now, the wealthy families in Beijing have started preparing to make summer clothes. If you delay any longer, you'll miss out."
"Then the second son's wife should stay for a few more days." Mrs. Ye asked worriedly, "Can you take care of the five children by yourself?"
"What's the big deal? I still have my second brother here. I just cook and wash clothes every day..."
Before Mrs. Ye San finished speaking, everyone felt that it was inappropriate.
Of course there would be no problem if Mrs. Ye was at home.
But if Old Madam Ye stayed in the capital, and Old Third Ye had to go back to the carpentry workshop, then wouldn't there be only Old Second Ye and Third Ye's wife left at home?
Although nothing will happen for sure, there is a chance that someone in the village will gossip about it, and then it will be difficult to explain.
Just as Old Lady Ye was pondering how to solve this problem, Boss Ye suddenly said, "Mom, the three of us should go back to the village and stay for a few days."
Mrs. Ye was stunned when she heard this and turned to look at Boss Ye. Why hadn't she heard him mention this before?
"Qingshan has helped me find out about Xiao Huang's case. I have to go back and take care of it.
"But there are differences between men and women. There are some things that I can't tell Xiao Huang directly. It's better to let Qingtian mother tell it."
When Mrs. Ye heard about this, she did not express any objection. She really did not want Boss Ye to have contact with Xiao Huang.
Otherwise, if any gossip gets out in the future, it will be really upsetting.
Boss Ye continued, "Plus, the village chief mentioned earlier that the land for our family to build a new house has been arranged, so I might as well go back and take a closer look at the situation.
"If there are no problems, we should start buying materials and preparing to start construction."
Old Madam Ye still asked, "If you all go back, what will happen to the shop?"
"I'll have to trouble you, mother, to look after the shop for a few days." Old Master Ye said, "Didn't you also help out when the shop opened?
"Now the shop has kitchen helpers. You can just help mix the stuffing every morning and keep an eye on it a little during the day."
Old Madam Ye nodded and said, “Mix the stuffing, it’s no problem. I learned it before.
"But if that happens, we'll have to move our fourth son into the store, too. Otherwise, I'll have to run back and forth."
"That's settled then." Old Master Ye said, "Mom, I'll ask Doctor Tao. If the fourth child is okay, we can move him to the store this afternoon.
“We’re all still here to help clean up.
"Then we'll set out for the village tomorrow morning."
"You guys can make the arrangements. I won't take care of this." Old Mrs. Ye yawned. She took a nap every day. Today they chatted a little late and she was starting to feel sleepy.
Seeing this, everyone in the Ye family hurriedly retreated from the house and asked Old Mrs. Ye to take a nap.
Boss Ye was just about to go talk to Doctor Tao when a servant from the General's Mansion came to report: "Master Ye, Madam Ye, Young Master Meng Yumeng from the Cen Mansion is here to see you. He's already waiting in the hall."
Boss Ye and Sister Ye were worried that Meng Yu had something urgent to do, so they hurried over.
Meng Yu quickly stood up when he saw the two of them and said, "Brother Ye, Madam You, is Ye Silang's injury any better?
"The old man at home is also very worried about her and sent me here to ask about her!"
Boss Ye quickly said, "Thank you for your concern, old man. The fourth brother's injury is not serious, but he still needs to recuperate for a while."
Hearing this, Meng Yu quickly added, "The old man sent me to tell Madam You that if there's anything you need help with, just let me know.
"We have plenty of places to live at home, so don't be shy."
At first, Boss Ye didn't react and wondered why someone said that out of the blue. Later, he realized that Boss Cen wanted to let Boss Ye go to the Cen Mansion to recuperate.
Seeing that Boss Ye and Sister Ye had no reaction, Meng Yu had no choice but to say, "Okay, I won't beat around the bush with you anymore.
"Now that Ye Silang is injured, you guys don't go home. Even Miss Qingtian doesn't go back. The old man has been upset at home these past two days!
