The trial was held the next morning, so many people from Rongxi Village who wanted to attend the trial had to come early.
Those who have relatives or friends in Beijing and can find a place to stay basically choose to come in the afternoon of the first day.
Those who couldn't find a place to stay and didn't want to spend money on hotel accommodation had no choice but to set off in the dark in the early morning so that they could reach the capital before the court opened.
This was what Ye Juan'er and Liu Quan had planned. They came to Beijing not only to attend the trial, but also to visit Ye Xianglei.
After all, they haven't seen each other since he returned to Beijing after spending the New Year at home, and the couple still misses him a lot.
But that afternoon, Ye Lao Er came to the door and asked, "Aunt, Uncle, are you going to Beijing? If so, let's go together this afternoon. I also need to go to the capital to pick up my wife."
The eldest Ye family left in a hurry yesterday, and the second Ye felt embarrassed to stay at home at night, so he went to Ye Dongkui's house to stay overnight under the pretext of discussing building a house.
But it was not a good thing to keep going like this, so he thought of taking the opportunity to go to Beijing and quickly bring his wife back, so that he, as the second uncle, wouldn't have to live under the same roof with his brother's wife.
"We'd like to go, but we have nowhere to stay. We plan to go to bed early tonight and get up in the middle of the night to leave!"
"Let's go together. My eldest brother and his wife have a place to stay. Don't worry!"
"That's great, but I'm going to cause trouble for your family again."
Ye Juaner was very happy when she heard this. After all, no one wanted to get up early in the morning to travel.
"It's okay. My mother will definitely be happy to see you there. She's in the capital taking care of the fourth child. She doesn't know anyone around her, and she's probably getting suffocated."
So, in the evening, Ye Laoer went to the dumpling restaurant with Ye Juaner and Liu Quan.
Ye Lao Da and his family have already returned to the Cen Mansion, but Ye Ersao has not returned yet.
So everyone went into the house to see Ye Lao Si first, and just as Ye Lao Er said, when Old Lady Ye saw Ye Juan'er, her eyes became red, as if she had suddenly seen a long-lost relative.
"Oh, sister-in-law, it's not that serious. Living in such a nice house in the city, what else can you not be satisfied with?"
"You don't know, I've been almost suffocated these days." said Old Mrs. Ye.
She couldn't delay the work of the people in the kitchen, nor could she always disturb Ye Lao Si who was recuperating from his injuries. Ye Lao Da and his family returned to the village.
She really couldn't even find anyone to talk to, and she didn't dare go out for a walk to relax.
So when he saw Ye Juaner coming over, it was like he had seen a savior.
The two of them sat cross-legged on the kang and immediately started chatting about what had happened in the village in the past few days.
Seeing this, Ye Lao Er smiled and said, "Uncle, look what I said?
"Let's go and let them talk. There's always food in the dumpling restaurant, so they won't starve.
"Let's go out for dinner and some drinks. We'll go to see Xiang Lei tomorrow morning after the trial, and then go back in the afternoon. We won't delay anything."
When Liu Quan heard this, he felt that what Ye Laoer said made sense, so he parked the mule cart in the backyard of the dumpling restaurant and followed Ye Laoer to find a place to eat.
The next morning, Ye Lao Da and his wife took Qingtian, as did Ye Lao Er and his wife, and Ye Juan Er and her husband, and went to the Yingtian government office together.
When I arrived at the yamen, I found that there were more than 20 people from the village who were waiting at the yamen gate.
Not long after, Wei Yan also came with Qin Hexuan.
Some people in the village recognized them as people who had been to the Ye family before, but seeing their dress and demeanor, no one dared to step forward to say hello, and could only quietly ask Mrs. Ye Da and Mrs. Ye Er.
Before Mrs. Ye could say anything, Qingtian had already trotted over to meet her.
"Mr. Wei, Brother Qin, you are here."
"Yes!" Wei Yan nodded, "You will come in with us later."
"Okay." Qingtian nodded and said, "Sir, I've told my uncle about my father, Mr. Jiao. He and his aunt said you can set any time and they will definitely attend."
Upon hearing this, Wei Yan said without hesitation, "Then why not wait for a better day? Let's do it this afternoon.
"Let's go to Youji Dumpling Restaurant for lunch, so we don't have to go back home."
"That's great. I'll go tell my dad." After saying that, Qingtian ran back and told Boss Ye about it.
Ye Laodao said, "Oh, then I have to go to the General's Mansion before the trial begins and tell Qingshan and his sister-in-law."
"Then hurry up and come back." Sister Ye urged him, "This is a big deal, we can't delay."
Someone in the village took the opportunity to ask Qingtian: "Has that gentleman been to our village before? Who is he? He looks so impressive today."
"He's Mr. Wei!" Qingtian followed the man's words and looked at Mr. Wei, his eyes full of admiration and pride. "Mr. Wei is my master. He's read a lot of books and traveled to many places. He knows everything from astronomy to geography. He's amazing."
When the villagers heard this, they said, "No wonder you can write and keep accounts at such a young age."
The villagers are uneducated and think that being able to write and keep accounts is a great thing.
Some even came over to ask, "Qingtian, is Mr. Wei's salary high? Is he accepting other apprentices? My daughter is eight years old this year, and I want her to learn a few words!"
"The master said he won't accept any other disciples." Qingtian shook his head with some regret.
She is now studying in the Qin Mansion. It is impossible for Mr. Wei to set up a school in the Qin Mansion.
But when Qingtian heard the villagers ask this, he couldn't help but think in his heart that when he became a master in the future, he wondered if he could open a school that only accepts girls, so that they also have a place to read and learn other skills.
