Mrs. Ye was startled by what Mrs. Lu said. She turned around and saw Mr. Jiao getting off the carriage.
Mr. Jiao did not care about Mrs. Lu's attitude and greeted Mrs. Ye with a smile.
"Mr. Jiao, you are here." Mrs. Ye quickly invited him into the house.
Ye Changhan and Ye Changkun had already taken a shower and changed their clothes. They were now being chased around the yard by Shao Shi and were refusing to drink the ginger sugar water.
So as soon as Mr. Jiao entered the door, Ye Changhan ran past him like a gust of wind.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Changkun, who had short legs and ran slowly, bumped into Mr. Jiao.
"Ouch!" Ye Changkun screamed, and then Shao caught up with him and grabbed the back of his neck by the collar.
Shao said sternly, “Drink this quickly and don’t force me to beat you up in someone else’s house!”
At first she wanted to pretend and act gentle.
But these two brats really don't make her look good.
Not to mention Qin Hexuan, even Qingtian drank the ginger sugar water obediently.
But only these two in her family won’t listen no matter what you say.
In the end, Shaw Brothers no longer cared about maintaining its "gentle" image. After all, they were all family, so there was no need to pretend.
So there was such a chaotic scene.
After Ye Changkun was caught by his mother, he wanted to struggle again, but he saw his brother, who had already run away, suddenly stopped, stood properly and called out, "Mr. Jiao."
Mr. Jiao?
Didn’t you say you’ll arrive tomorrow?
So the person he just bumped into was Mr. Jiao?
Ye Changkun slowly turned his head and saw Mr. Jiao looking at him with a half-smile on his face.
He stood up immediately as a reflex, and without waiting for Shao to say anything, he took the bowl from her hand and gulped down the ginger sugar water in the bowl.
"Burp——" After drinking, Ye Changkun burped a ginger-flavored burp, his face full of despair.
Shaw greeted Mr. Jiao and then turned to look at his eldest son.
There was no need for Shao to chase him at this moment. Ye Changhan went straight to the kitchen to get a bowl of ginger sugar water and drank it.
Shao then smiled and said, "Sure enough, it has to be Mr. Jiao."
After Mr. Jiao entered the room, he did not speak to Madam Lu anymore. Instead, he went into the house to see Old Lady Ye first. After that, he chatted with Mr. Wei for a while, and then the two of them went to the fields to see the Ye family's crops.
They were looking at the dealer, and the villagers were also secretly looking at them.
Although the villagers didn't know how famous Mr. Wei was, they could tell he was a scholar by the way he was dressed.
According to their previous understanding, shouldn't scholars "turn a deaf ear to the world outside the window and focus on reading the books of sages"?
Not to mention people far away, the most learned person in the village now is the village chief’s father, Old Man Wang.
The villagers had never seen him go to the fields. He had been buried in his studies since he was young.
After becoming a scholar, he never put down his books and would even read while walking and eating.
Unfortunately, his luck was still a little bad. He failed the exam several times and finally had to stay in the village and work as a teacher.
Even so, he is the most educated person in the village.
The villagers' understanding of scholars is basically through Grandpa Wang.
But for some reason, the two gentlemen from the Ye family this time actually liked to watch them farm so much?
Ye Qingyuan was also curious, and taking advantage of his good relationship with the old Ye family and the fact that their lands were adjacent, he took the opportunity to ask Ye Laoer.
Ye Lao Er scratched his head upon hearing this, looked at the two gentlemen standing at the edge of the field, and said hesitantly, "Maybe you've never seen it before, so you're curious?"
But in fact, Mr. Wei and Mr. Jiao did know something about farming, and even Mr. Nie later joined them in the discussion.
Ye Lao Er didn't know what to say now, so he could only say, "Maybe educated people know everything!"
The next day, everyone in the Ye family got up early and started working.
Today is Old Lady Ye’s birthday. Not only will the Ye family hold a banquet in the new house, they have also invited a theatre troupe to come over and have fun with the villagers.
And not only the villagers, but also people came in the morning to celebrate Old Mrs. Ye’s birthday.
Although the furniture in the new house had not yet been completed, the rooms had been cleaned and furnished with tables and chairs borrowed from various households in the village.
The guests looked at the five courtyards lined up at the foot of the mountain, all of which were tall brick and tile houses, and were all envious.
If you are not a wealthy family, how could you afford to build so many brick and tile houses?
Lin Yuying looked at it with envy. She reached out and touched the smooth door frame, and couldn't help but say, "Your house is really well built!"
When Mrs. Ye heard this, she couldn't help but say with pride, "That's right, we bought the best ingredients, and Uncle Dongkui and Brother Qinggang were also very attentive in supervising the work.
"Don't even mention you. I want to move back home right away when I see you."
Although the houses in the Cen Mansion are all brick and tile houses, they are old and are located in the capital after all. Even though they are considered spacious, they are not as good as the countryside environment, nor as bright as new houses.
This time, we held a birthday party for Old Mrs. Ye. Because there were so many people, the family directly hired someone to cook.
Mrs. Ye only needs to be responsible for two tables of important guests. The workload is not heavy and there is no rush, so she still has time to chat with Lin Yumei.
As noon approached, the villagers came one after another and took their seats to prepare for the banquet.
Old Mrs. Ye was arranged to sit in the seat of honor in the main house in the middle courtyard. She looked at the room full of guests and the busy family members coming in and out, listened to everyone's congratulations and praise for the new house, and she couldn't stop smiling.
