Chapter 587 Worrying About Nothing
Ye Beixiu and Ren Xiaoyao left Yejia Village in a grand procession with several horse-drawn carriages and the sheep Meemie.
Wang Guilan and Ye Jishun watched Ye Beixiu leave reluctantly. Wang Guilan wiped her tears and said, "I don't know when the child will come back after leaving home this time!"
Ye Jishun glared at her unhappily and said, "I'll be back after the results are announced. Maybe your eldest grandson will give you a surprise!
Stop crying. Beixiu has a bright future, and that’s a good thing!
The fact that you and I are proud of ourselves in our village is all thanks to our grandson."
Wang Guilan gave Ye Jishun a look of grievance, "I'm such an old person, and I don't even know how bad I am!
You don't need to tell me, I just feel sorry for my child. Looking at such a big family business outside, it is not easy to build up such a family business!
I worked until midnight yesterday, and I had to go out early this morning before daybreak."
“Only those who endure the most hardships can become the best.”
Wang Guilan sighed and said nothing more.
The old couple supported each other and walked home. When they reached the intersection leading to the village, they met Pang Xiujuan, who was running out of breath.
When Pang Xiujuan ran into Wang Guilan and Ye Jishun, she didn't even call them "Mom and Dad" and asked directly, "Is Beixiu gone?"
Wang Guilan was already in a bad mood, and seeing Pang Xiujuan like this, she took out her anger on her, "Why don't you leave? Why don't you stay here for the New Year?"
"Why didn't he tell me he was leaving? If I hadn't woken up early because I couldn't sleep and heard people talking outside, I wouldn't have known about it!"
Pang Xiujuan patted her chest, which was rising and falling, and continued, "I wanted to talk to him originally, but I missed the chance. Did he say when he would be back?"
"This is his home. He can come back whenever he wants."
Pang Xiujuan finally heard the bad tone in Wang Guilan's voice, "Mom, why are you so harsh so early in the morning? Beixiu is my son after all, so why can't I ask him questions?"
"I didn't say you couldn't ask. You keep saying Bei Xiu is your son, so let me ask you, have you ever cooked anything for him since he came back this time?"
"I'm busy taking care of the third child and the kids. Besides, Bei Xiu is also busy and I'm afraid he won't have time to eat the food I cook.
Mom, I still say the same thing. I don’t have any other thoughts now. Beixiu has become successful, but as his mother, I don’t get any credit from him.
I don't blame anyone for not getting any credit. After all, as a mother, I did something wrong, which made Bei Xiu feel resentful, and I can't blame anyone else.
Beili and Beifeng are different. I raised these two brothers. Besides, they are also your grandsons.
As for me, I just want Bei Xiu to take the two brothers out to study."
Wang Guilan was so angry that she was shaking all over. She opened her mouth to speak but was interrupted by Pang Xiujuan again.
"Mom, don't be angry. I'm not discussing this with you, I'm just letting you know.
The third child also agreed to this. After all, I didn't do anything bad, and what I did was for the good of the children."
After Pang Xiujuan finished speaking, she kept staring at Wang Guilan. When she saw that Wang Guilan didn't say anything, she turned to look at Ye Jishun.
Ye Jishun glanced at Wang Guilan. Seeing that she had turned her head away in anger, he spoke up, "Old Third's family, there's nothing wrong with letting the children go to school.
Logically speaking, since Beixiu has made progress, it is only right for him to help his brothers, and Beixiu has done so.
The mountain land you are farming now was also given to you by him.
A while ago, when you were too busy, wasn't it his people who helped you?
If it weren't for their help, you wouldn't even have a harvest this year.
You don't have to be jealous of Beishan and Beilin. Beishan and Beilin only get paid because they help with the work.
Even if they go out to work for others, they can still get paid.
I still say the same thing, you can ask Bei Xiu to help find a school or a good teacher for Bei Li and Bei Feng. As long as he has the ability, he should help you as your elder brother.
But you can’t count the money spent on studying against Bei Xiu.
Even if he has money, it was earned by them. Moreover, after he got married, he studied and practiced martial arts at home. All the money in the family was earned by Jue Xia. "
Pang Xiujuan was extremely dissatisfied with Ye Jishun's words. She rolled her eyes and said, "Dad, you are wrong. No matter how much money Zhang Juexia can make, she is still Bei Xiu's wife.
Since she is Bei Xiu's wife, let's not distinguish between you and me. Besides, what do you mean by me calculating their money? Didn't you just say that he is promising now, and it is his duty to help his brothers.
He has so much money, so he doesn't need these ten or eight taels of silver. I'll just consider it as his support for my old age."
"Old Third, your father and I have never asked for money for your retirement even at our age.
You are so young, yet you are already thinking about asking your son to take care of you in your old age. Believe it or not, if this gets out, it will be difficult for Beili and Beifeng to find wives in the future."
"Beili and Beifeng are both scholars. They are going to marry daughters of officials in the future. Who would care about girls from our mountain village?
Mom and Dad, we have already divided the family, so please stop interfering in our affairs.
If the Third Brother hadn't insisted that I explain it to you, I wouldn't bother explaining it!"
Pang Xiujuan originally went to look for Ye Beixiu, but she didn't see him. She thought that instead of wasting time arguing with these two old guys, it would be better to go home and catch up on some sleep. So she left after saying that.
Seeing Wang Guilan about to explode again, Ye Jishun quickly tried to stop her, "She just said that the family has been divided and no one can control her anymore."
"Oh, I really regret it..."
"Stop talking like that. Let's take care of ourselves and enjoy Bei Xiu's blessings!"
"I'm just afraid. She's been clamoring for Bei Xiu to support Bei Li and Bei Feng's education. As long as Bei Xiu opens his mouth, who knows what else she'll ask for. Don't let Bei Xiu end up having to pay for Bei Li and Bei Feng's wedding.
Then Bei Xiu's life would be really hard."
Ye Jishun was amused by Wang Guilan's words, "You are overthinking it, old woman. Don't worry, Bei Xiu won't agree.
Even if Bei Xiu agreed, Jue Xia would not agree.
However, given their personalities, they wouldn't refuse to help find a school and a tutor."
"That's good, that's good!"
Wang Guilan finally felt a little better.
But Ye Jishun sighed again, "Ah, old woman, you said we are here worrying about this and that, whether Beili and Beifeng are good students is another matter!"
Wang Guilan was also enlightened. "That's right. Why are we worrying about this? I have to go to the school to ask about this matter someday. First, I'll go to the village at the foot of the mountain, and then to the town.
Old man, why don’t we go today!”
