"Ouch, what's that? It stabbed me to death."
Upon hearing this, Boss Ye hurried over with a lantern and helped Ye Dongkui up.
Ye Dongkui groaned and complained, "Who is so reckless? Why are you running around in the middle of the night? Is there a ghost chasing you?"
Boss Ye took a look in the light of the lantern and saw that Ye Dongkui's hands were covered in blood and he couldn't see where the wound was.
"I'm afraid you're seriously injured. I'll take you straight to Doctor Gu for a checkup and some medical treatment before you go home!"
Ye Dongkui pressed his injured hand, but did not forget to say: "Boss, come here and look at what is on the ground and throw it aside.
"It would be no joke if a village child got pricked."
Boss Ye quickly lowered the lantern to shine on the ground and dug the thing out.
Ye Dongkui pressed part of the thing on the ground into the ground, leaving only a sharp corner exposed.
If it weren't for Ye Dongkui's blood on it, it would look like the same color as the soil at first glance.
Boss Ye used his toes to get the thing out and then he realized that it looked a little familiar.
He bent down to pick up the thing and took a look, and suddenly felt something was wrong.
This is clearly the spring ox horn that Qingtian picked up before!
In general places, the Spring Ox is made of clay, but the Spring Ox in the capital has to be transported out of the city for a ceremony and then transported back. It is unlucky to avoid the clay Spring Ox being damaged during the journey, so it is simply fired every year, but it still looks like a clay sculpture.
Therefore, it has a certain hardness, and the fragments are all angular. It was the broken sharp corners that pierced Ye Dongkui's palm just now.
Boss Ye frowned and put the Spring Ox Horn into his arms, then took Ye Dongkui to Doctor Gu's house to treat the wound.
Fortunately, the wound was not deep and did not hurt any bones or muscles. It was just a superficial injury.
After cleaning and applying medicine, Doctor Gu reminded the patient not to get wet for the next few days.
After Boss Ye sent Ye Dongkui home, he did not go home himself.
He went straight to the edge of his own land and saw signs that it had been turned over.
Boss Ye returned home with a lot of anger. He didn't care that Second Brother Ye had already gone to bed. He went straight to his room, lit a candle and woke him up.
"Second brother, look what this is!"
Because Ye Ersao was not at home, Ye Laoer and his three sons slept on the same kang, and they were all woken up.
Ye Lao Er got up sleepily and asked, "Brother, what's wrong?"
"Who did you tell that we buried the Spring Ox Horn?" Old Master Ye snorted and put the thing in his hand on the kang. "Look, someone dug it out in the middle of the night!"
"What?" Ye Laoer lost all sleepiness when he heard this. He grabbed something on the kang and took a look next to the candle. It turned out to be the spring ox horn that he had buried with his own hands.
"Brother, I didn't tell anyone!" Ye Lao Er felt that he had died unjustly. "How could I possibly tell anyone about this?"
"Then how did someone dig it out? If I hadn't just escorted Uncle Dongkui to run into that guy, this Spring Ox Horn would have been stolen long ago!"
"Oh no! They're not going to destroy my crops!"
When Ye Laoer thought of this, he couldn't bear it any longer. He got up, put on his clothes and wanted to go to the field to see what was going on.
"I just checked. There are traces of digging on the east side of the field. They should be heading straight for Chunniujiao." Boss Ye frowned. "Maybe it's because our vegetables and crops are growing so well this year, and some people in the village are jealous."
Ye Lao Er was puzzled and said, "Even if others knew that we had Spring Ox Horns, our land is so big, how would they know where to bury them?
"No, I still have to go and see it. If I don't see it with my own eyes, I will definitely not be able to sleep tonight."
Ye Lao Er said this as he got up and started to get dressed. Seeing the three children lying on the kang looking at him, he comforted them, "Changrui, take your brother to bed quickly. Dad and Grandpa are going out for a while and will be back soon."
Who knew that Ye Changzhao suddenly burst into tears.
Boss Ye said quickly: "Go and sleep with the child. I've checked everything. There's nothing wrong with the field..."
Before he could finish his words, Ye Changzhao burst into tears and said, "I think I accidentally told others about Chun Niu Jiao's matter... Wow..."
Upon hearing this, Ye Lao Da and Ye Lao Er looked at each other in surprise.
Ye Lao Er sat down on the kang and asked, "When did you say that, and to whom did you tell it?"
"I, I just said it casually when I took my sister to the fields to look at our crops. There didn't seem to be anyone around at the time... Wow..."
Ye Changzhao started crying again as he spoke.
"What should I do? My spring ox horns have been dug out. Will my crops stop growing well in the future?
"Wow...it's all my fault for talking nonsense outside. What should I do now?"
Unexpectedly, when Ye Lao Da and Ye Lao Er heard what Ye Changzhao said, they were not worried at all, but smiled at each other.
"Silly boy!" Ye Lao Er reached out and rubbed Ye Changzhao's head, "When we were outside the Great Wall before, we didn't have spring ox horns, but the crops in our fields still grew better than those of other people, didn't they?
"What, you really think the crops are growing well because of the spring ox horns?
"That's because your father, I, work hard in the fields to take care of the crops every day, okay?
"The Spring Ox Horns are just a beautiful symbol, silly son!"
Ye Changzhao was a little confused by what Ye Laoer said, and looked up at Ye Laoda with tears in his eyes.
At this time, he didn't quite believe what Ye Laoer said.
If spring ox horns really had no benefits for the family's crops, how could the old man be so angry and come over to ask about this in the middle of the night?
