"Mom, I was wrong. It's all my fault." Boss Ye was hugged tightly by Old Lady Ye, and he could feel her body trembling constantly.
Old Mrs. Ye was really scared this time. While hugging Old Man Ye and crying, she couldn't help but hit him twice on the back.
Old Man Ye hugged Old Lady Ye and carried her into the house.
Then I waited quietly for her to finish crying and slowly calm down before I got some water for her to wash her face.
Old Mrs. Ye had also recovered a lot at this time. When she saw the towel handed to her by Boss Ye, she glared at him before taking it and wiping her face.
After wiping her face, Old Mrs. Ye quickly got off the kang and walked out.
"It's all your fault. There are so many guests at home, and you've completely lost face!"
Ye Lao Er, who was standing at the door, heard this and said, "Mother, it's okay. They are all busy looking at the leopard that big brother hunted. They don't have time to laugh at you!"
"What? Leopard?" Old Mrs. Ye thought she was hard of hearing and had misheard. "You mean roe deer, right?"
"It's a leopard! It's really a leopard!" Ye Changrui said excitedly, "Grandma, you should go over and take a look too!
"The master is really amazing. He can actually hunt a leopard by himself."
The five children of the Ye family were so happy when they saw the leopard that they were as excited as if they had killed the leopard themselves.
Ye Changxue was so eager to go around the village and shout that everyone would know that his uncle had hunted a leopard.
"When we go to the private school tomorrow, I will definitely tell that brat Wang Mingcheng. Let's see if he dares to show off in front of us again."
Wang Mingcheng is a child in the village who is about the same age as Ye Changxue. His ancestors were hunters, but his father stopped doing that.
He always brags about how good his grandfather is at hunting in the private school, and looks down on Boss Ye in his words.
Although Boss Ye is a tiger-fighting hero, he insists that his grandfather also fought tigers.
His grandfather has passed away, so many of the things he said can no longer be verified.
So the children of the Ye family were always pissed off by him, but they couldn't do anything about him.
This time, Boss Ye hunted a leopard alone, and everyone in the village saw it.
He wanted to see what else Wang Mingcheng had to say.
Adults are unaware of the children's rivalries.
At this time, the leopard had been taken out of the backpack and placed in the Ye family's yard.
Everyone in the woodworking workshop was chatting animatedly around it.
"Wow, this leopard is really big!"
"This is clearly an adult male leopard. Judging by his teeth, he's probably around four years old."
The lifespan of a leopard is generally more than ten years, and four years old is the best time for it to be strong and healthy.
Being able to catch such a leopard shows how powerful Boss Ye is.
"Brother Ye is really capable! Even though he caught it with a trap, it really wasn't easy!"
"That's right. Leopards are much harder to catch than wild boars or something like that."
As everyone was talking at once, Sister Ye San raised her voice and said, "Stop standing around in the yard! Come inside and eat!"
A total of seventeen people came to the woodworking workshop today, including the people from the old Ye family. A table was set up in the main hall and the west room for everyone to sit down.
Old Mrs. Ye ate in the east room with her daughter-in-law and children.
After dinner, Old Mrs. Ye and Sister-in-law Ye San cleaned up several rooms in the house and laid out bedding.
It's too late today, and everyone in the woodworking workshop has been drinking. We can't let them go back at night, so they have to stay at home for one night.
Fortunately, although the house is not big, several people are not at home, so there are many empty rooms.
Besides, it’s summer now, so there’s no need to cover yourself with thick blankets, and you don’t have to worry about not having enough luggage.
Old Mrs. Ye invited Sister-in-law Ye San to live in her room, and then let the children live in the west room. She let the three brothers of the Ye family and the people in the carpentry workshop distribute the remaining four rooms themselves, making sure that everyone had enough space to sleep.
Fortunately, everyone in the carpentry workshop also sleeps in large bunk beds in the city, so everyone is used to it and there is nothing to complain about.
Everyone was exhausted after two days of climbing the mountain. After dinner, they washed up and lay down one after another.
Obviously, Boss Ye should be the most tired person, but he still can't relax.
He had to quickly skin the leopard and get rid of its meat.
After he finished all this, he found that Old Mrs. Ye was standing at the door of the main house looking at him. He didn't know how long she had been there.
Boss Ye walked over and whispered, "Mom, why aren't you sleeping yet?"
"Tomorrow is May 15th. I remember you saying there was a crucial competition on that day."
Boss Ye was shocked when he heard this and asked hurriedly, "Today is the fourteenth? Will tomorrow be the fifteenth?"
"That's right, just tell me how many days you've been in the mountains!"
Without waiting for Old Lady Ye to finish her complaints, Old Man Ye quickly wrapped the packed leopard skin in a bag and put it on the car.
Then he changed his clothes and prepared to drive out.
"What are you doing so late at night?" Old Mrs. Ye was startled and quickly stopped him and asked.
"Mom, didn't you tell me that there's a very important competition tomorrow? If I don't leave now, I won't be able to reach the capital by tomorrow morning."
"You just came out of the mountains, and now you have to travel at night. It's too dangerous!"
Old Mrs. Ye was worried, but she also knew that she couldn't persuade her son.
She thought for a moment and said, "Wait a moment, I'll go get the second brother and ask him to accompany you back.
"You two can take turns driving the car on the way. Whoever is tired can take a break, and you can also take care of each other."
