Now that the three sons' families have their own profitable businesses, and the eldest and fourth sons have received a lot of rewards, Old Mrs. Ye is not as stingy with her money as before.
Ye Lao Er said quickly: "We have to buy a cow, and we will have to farm in the spring next year.
"I've been to the fields before and saw that Widow Liu's family hadn't taken good care of them. It's such a waste of good land.
"Next spring, we'll have to plow the fields several times.
“As the saying goes, one more plowing in spring means one more bushel of harvest in autumn.
"Farming is a business that doesn't tolerate cheating or dishonesty. You get what you put in. There's no such thing as getting something for nothing."
When talking about farming, Ye Lao Er immediately became excited and talked several times more than usual.
Ye Lao Si finished the last sip of soy milk in his bowl and said, "Alright, Second Brother, you don't have to say so much. Wait until next spring and we'll do whatever you say."
Ye Lao Er patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, I will take good care of the land at home. You just need to go and do your own work during the normal farming season, and come back to help during the busy farming season."

Because Guo had just had an accident recently, his family members took good care of him. Not only did they not ask him to work, they also tried their best to give him space to heal.
But Ye Laosi also knew in his heart that not to mention his brothers, even his parents would not tolerate him doing nothing like this forever.
"I don't know what I can do, so I'll just give it a try!"
"If you really want to learn, I'd be more than happy to help you," said Ye Lao Er. "But a lot of things need to be prepared now. If you wait until next spring, it will be too late."
"That would be even better, since I have nothing to do right now anyway.
"Second brother, let's start today when we get back. I'll do whatever you ask me to do!"
