Chapter 349: Lowering One's Generation
Ye Ling found the smallest package from several packages and handed it to Ye Jun. Ye Jun looked at Ye Ling's other large packages and couldn't help but curl his lips.
Ye Ling shrank her head, thinking that although the package was small, the things inside were more valuable than her several large packages combined. Her uncle really didn't know what was good.
"Uncle, please open it and take a look first."
Ye Jun opened the package. In addition to a letter, there was a jade box inside. Seeing the jade box, Ye Jun glanced at Cheng Qiao. When he saw her nod, he opened the lid of the jade box.
In the jade box lay a ginseng that was about fifty years old, and it had been processed. Perhaps the person who processed it had limited skills and the essence of the ginseng was lost.
But Ye Ling was extremely excited. This was something his father had been thinking about for several months before he decided to give it to her. After all, such good ginseng was rare.
"What a piece of crap, take it back, I don't want it."
Ye Jun directly returned the jade box to Ye Ling. Any ginseng that his apprentice Cheng Qiao casually took out was much better than this dry stuff.
Ye Ling: “…”
Cheng Qiao was almost dying of laughter and quickly went to the kitchen to prepare food. She knew from a young age that Ye Ling was greedy. The last time she saw her, she was still a little fat. She didn't know how she managed to lose weight.
Ye Ling threw the jade box to Ye Jun without caring about anything, and followed him out. She put her arm around Cheng Qiao's shoulder and smiled as she stretched out her hand: "Good Cheng Qiao, that health pill is really effective, give me some."
"Didn't Grandpa Ye give it to you?"
"He's so tight, he only gives me one meatball a month and he's still nagging. Since you made the meatballs, I'll rely on you from now on."
Cheng Qiao smiled, reached into her pocket, and took out a porcelain bottle. There were three health pills in it. Take one pill a month, and it will keep you energetic.
Ye Ling quickly took it, carefully hid it in her clothes pocket, and patted her pocket carefully for fear of losing it.
Finally, the meal was served. Ye Ling started to eat the delicious food. However, when she took the first bite of rice, her eyes flickered and she looked at Cheng Qiao with a complicated look.
No wonder Dad said there was something fishy going on with Cheng Qiao. He had also seen the Ye family's ancestral book of ancient prescriptions, but no one had ever been able to concoct it.
Not only was there a shortage of medicinal materials, but also a lack of special techniques. After accepting Cheng Qiao as his apprentice, the pills in the classics appeared one by one. Cheng Qiao must have played a decisive role.
This time she came to the capital not only to buy a house, but also to establish a good relationship with Cheng Qiao. She wanted to know what secrets Cheng Qiao had, and even the Wu family was willing to snatch them away.
Moreover, the old man of the Wu family intends to marry Wu Xiaolin to Cheng Li. What a joke! Her own niece Ye Gui is six years old this year, so it’s better to keep her in the family.
"Cheng Qiao, you may not know this, but my eldest brother and second brother are both married. They have an eight-year-old boy and a six-year-old girl. I'll bring them here to play when I have time."
Cheng Qiao understood what Ye Ling meant as soon as she heard it, but she really didn't want her child to be missed by others like this, so she smiled and said:
"Your nephew and I are of the same generation. My children still show respect to their elders when they see them."
Ye Ling was stunned for a moment, seeming a little surprised. After thinking about it, she spoke decisively, "At the beginning, your parents saw my father calling him the old leader, and saw me and my elder brother and second brother politely calling them younger brothers and sisters."
But in fact, I am only 28 years old this year, not much older than you. You should call me sister and I should call you sister.
Besides, your master is my younger cousin, so wouldn’t it be more reasonable for you to call me sister? Ye Ling kept talking for a while, even Cheng Qiao was a little confused.
Ye Jun stood at the door, listening to the chattering inside. Of course, they were all the voices of his little niece. He couldn't help but smile. If little Cheng Li wanted to find a wife, he would definitely choose Xiao Gui.
Cheng Qiao felt like a hundred ducks were flying past her ears. She waited until Ye Ling stopped talking for a long time before she understood what Ye Ling meant. In order to get this marriage, Ye Ling was willing to lower her generation.
But I just thought about it. My father only asked me to call Ye Ling "Auntie" out of courtesy. In fact, since I am Ye Jun's apprentice, it is right for me to call Ye Ling "Sister".
"Sister Ye Ling, I understand what you said, but let the children make their own decisions. Besides, they are still young."
Ye Ling nodded. Her father was already making arrangements. After Cheng Qiao finished the second grade, she would transfer to the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Hexi. Little Cheng Li would definitely go there too, so she would bring Xiao Gui over as well.
She just didn't believe it. The two children grew up together as childhood sweethearts, so how could the girl from the Wu family be lucky enough to be hers in the future? If this was true, it only proved that her own girl, Xiaogui, was not as good as the girl from the Wu family.
Early the next morning, Ye Ling saw Ye Jing. She liked the child as soon as she saw him. He was quiet, like a little girl, and even more gentle than Xiao Nuan who was beside her.
"Ye Jing, I'm your great aunt, no, I'm your aunt."
Ye Jun looked at the sky speechlessly, wishing a bolt of lightning would strike down this hairless girl who always spoke without restraint.
"Hello, Auntie. I'm Ye Jing and she's my sister, Xiao Nuan. We are twins from the same mother."
"Auntie knows. Here, this is a gift from Auntie to you."
Ye Ling took out four red envelopes, one for each of the twins and one for Li Ming. But when she saw little Cheng Li, she finally understood why the Wu family took a fancy to little Cheng Li.
Little Cheng Li is a replica of Cheng Qiao, and his charming face is also masculine and resolute. He looks extremely pleasing to the eye. His dark eyes seem to be starry, and you will be intoxicated by them if you are not careful.
"Xiao Chengli, you look so... unexpected."
Little Cheng Li took the red envelope from Ye Ling, took a step back with a red face, and looked at Cheng Qiao for help: "Mom, I'm going to be late for school."
"Come on, auntie will take you to school."
So, Ye Jun, Cheng Qiao and Ye Ling took the four children out of the courtyard, first sending the twins to the nursery, then sending little Cheng Li to elementary school, and finally sending Li Ming to kindergarten.
"Li Ming looks almost as tall as little Cheng Li. What did he eat to grow up?"
Ye Ling knew that Li Ming was two years younger than little Cheng Li, but the two children were almost the same height, which was a bit strange. She knew that Cheng Qiao would never abuse little Cheng Li.
"This child is too energetic and has a big appetite, so he came to the kindergarten in this military compound and received special training. By the way, his martial arts teacher was Liang Qingya."
"Uncle Liang, is he married?"
Cheng Qiao shook her head and Ye Ling stopped talking. Zhao Min had been gone for so many years, but he still hadn't gotten over it. Such an infatuated man was extinct in the world, and he would never meet him again anyway.
Finally, Cheng Qiao took Ye Ling to Qijun Clothing Store. The clothing store was just about to open when Qin Yue saw Ye Ling and her eyes flickered slightly. Was something going to happen?
