Ye Dongkui naturally drank it happily.
After spending these two days together, he really likes this young man Ye Laosan.
He doesn't talk much but he is very efficient with his hands and does his job quickly and well.
He used to be a carpenter and knew many people in this field.
So he had an idea about helping Ye Lao San find a job.
Ye Juan'er just went into the house to join the children at the table for a while and when she came back, she found that Ye Dongkui and Liu Quan were both drunk with red faces and thick necks.
Ye Dongkui had previously promised Ye Juaner that he would keep an eye on Liu Quan, but he ended up getting drunk first.
Ye Juan'er looked helpless and finally didn't bother to care about him anymore. She asked the Ye brothers to send the man back to her and then took her son home.
Because they drank a lot of alcohol the day before, several people got up later than usual the next day.
When Ye Dongkui got up, everyone in the family had already had breakfast and was doing their own thing. Only his wife, Mrs. Huang, was feeding the chickens in the yard.
He squatted under the roots of a tree in the yard, brushing his teeth and washing his face, while listening to Huang's nagging: "After drinking a little bit of wine, he lost his mind and talked nonsense when he was sent back.
"You're already old, and you still drink so much. You're going to have a headache and stomachache when you wake up today, right?
"I've left some millet porridge for you in the pot. It's still warm. Drink some quickly to feed your appetite!"
Ye Dongkui shook his head, but he didn't feel any discomfort. He stood up and said, "I drank good wine yesterday, so I didn't get drunk. I'll be fine after a good night's sleep. Nothing will happen."
Huang stopped feeding the chickens and asked curiously, "Why is her family so generous? Are they willing to give you good wine?"
Ye Dongkui frowned and said, "Her family is very nice, and the children are all very well behaved. They are all very polite to me, calling me uncle.
"Go back and tell the children that our two families can visit each other more often and get along well.
"And you, stop gossiping with those old ladies in the village!"
"I just went there to listen to the fun, not to tell them about it." Huang continued to feed the chickens without taking it seriously.
Ye Dongkui walked into the house, opened the lid of the pot, took out the still hot steamed buns on the steamer, opened the steamer again, revealing the millet porridge underneath, filled a bowl, and brought it to the table in the main hall. There were also two plates of pickles left over from the family on the table.
He drank a few mouthfuls of millet porridge first, and as soon as the hot porridge went down his stomach, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Just when Ye Dongkui was about to lower his head to take a bite of the steamed bun, his second son Ye Qingfei ran in from outside and shouted.
"Dad, are you up? Let's go to the river and take a look!
"Many people from the Wang family have gathered over there to cause trouble. They say you guys are liars repairing the waterwheel and they're coming to find you to punish you!"
"Who said that?" Ye Dongkui stood up suddenly, threw away the steamed bun in his hand and walked out.
Ye Qingfei followed him to the river.
It just so happened that they ran into the Wang family who were preparing to come with a large force to hold them accountable.
When Ye Dongkui saw that the leader was Wang Dalong, he was confused.
He was using the matter of repairing the waterwheel as an excuse to avenge the "house theft" from the Ye family!
