She didn't want to say this to Ye Jianan and Ye Xia. It was obvious that Ye Xia's current mental state was not suitable for accepting such things.
Mu Jingsheng realized something was wrong, and stuttered while covering his nose: "Brother, uncle..."
Ye Jianan got angry when he saw Mu Jingsheng and rolled his eyes at him, "What does it have to do with you?"
Mu Jingsheng choked.
Knowing that Ye Jianan disliked him, he could only shut up wisely.
Ye Xia's lips trembled slightly, perhaps she thought of something. She looked at Ye Jianan with a hint of fear, and held Ye Yun's hand tightly, her fingertips turning white.
Seeing her like this, Ye Jianan sighed helplessly.
"Don't be nervous. Father fell off the roof that year. You know he was old and couldn't stand the fall. His death has nothing to do with you. He just happened to die after you left."
"Is... is that so?" Ye Xia's tone was a little more uncertain.
Ye Jianan nodded.
Ye Yun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, holding Ye Xia's hand and saying, "Don't be too nervous, birth, aging, sickness and death are all normal."
As she spoke, she couldn't help but look at Ye Jianan twice more. In her memory, her grandfather had never fallen, and his death was the result of long-standing resentment. To put it bluntly, it was the reason for her mother's disappearance.
Ye Xia lowered her eyes dejectedly and said nothing.
After a long while, she finally squeezed out a sentence from between her lips: "It's my fault..."
Ye Jianan glanced at her twice but didn't explain too much, in order to avoid causing more trouble.
After the heavy rain stopped, Ye Jianan was taken by Qin Zheng to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some incense.
The mountains were wet everywhere after the rain. My straw sandals flowed over the grass and stepped on the bluestone slabs without being stained by dew.
"Be careful."
Qin Zheng held Ye Yun's hand with one hand and put his arm around her waist with the other, fearing that she would fall.
The road in the mountains was difficult to walk on, and she was pregnant. If Ye Yun hadn't insisted on coming with Ye Xia to take a look, he really didn't want Ye Yun to take the risk.
The old man’s grave is on the mountain, halfway up the mountain like many others in the village.
It had just rained, so there was no need to worry that the lit incense would burn down the mountain.
Ye Xia numbly threw incense paper into the brazier, her eyes red from crying, and she muttered in a very low voice. Others could not hear what she said, but they knew that she looked very sad.
In the afternoon, Ye Jianan took Ye Xia back home and looked at the old yard.
Ye Yun naturally followed.
Liu Meilan was sitting in the yard in a daze. Ever since Ye Xue disappeared, she had lost half of her energy and no longer had the energy she had before to make trouble.
When she saw Ye Xia appear, there was a hint of panic in her expression.
"Sister-in-law?" Ye Xia looked at Liu Meilan and called out softly.
Liu Meilan looked shocked and stared at Ye Xia for several seconds. Suddenly, as if she had seen a ghost, she rushed out of the house with a stool.
"Don't bother with her!"
Ye Jianan got angry when he saw Liu Meilan's useless look. What else didn't he understand at this point?
Liu Meilan is clearly feeling guilty!
That means Liu Meilan did beat Ye Xia at that time!
Ye Jianan glared angrily at Liu Meilan's fleeing figure, then opened the door to the main room and asked Ye Xia and the others to go upstairs and sit down first.
Seeing that he was entertaining Ye Xia, Ye Yun went to the house where she had lived before with Qin Zheng.
But I didn't expect Ye Xia to follow me.
Ye Xia asked her: "Xiao Yun, did you live here before?"
Ye Yun nodded.
Ye Xia looked at the furnishings in the room curiously, but found that nothing belonged to her daughter, and she couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.
She didn't say anything, just raised her hand, patted Ye Yun's shoulder and went out again.
Outside, Ye Jianan was waving his hands and yelling at Mu Jingsheng: "I won't leave. I'll stay here to guard my hometown. If you want to leave, go ahead. Don't drag me out!"
Ye Yun followed him out.
Mu Jingsheng advised him kindly: "Brother, there is no development in the mountains. Now there is a lot of work to be done outside, and all walks of life need people. You are a pragmatic person, and you will find a good job soon after you go out."
“No, no, no!”
Ye Jianan waved his hands impatiently, saying that even if the king of heaven came, he couldn't pull him out.
He has his own small courtyard in the mountains and one and a half acres of land. Although he is not rich, he has food to eat every day. Why would he go out?
No matter what Mu Jingsheng said, Ye Jianan refused to leave.
Mu Jingsheng scratched the back of his head, not knowing how to persuade Ye Jianan again.
He really wanted Ye Jianan to go out and see the society outside and help his brother-in-law.
Of course, he was more thinking that if Ye Jianan went with him, then the chances of Ye Yun going with him would be greater.
"If he doesn't want to go out, then he doesn't have to go out. Why do you force him to go out?" Ye Yun said coldly.
The slightly cold voice made Mu Jingsheng shut up instantly. Facing Ye Yun's unhappy expression, he didn't dare to say a word.
Ye Xia patted Mu Jingsheng's shoulder with a smile, and comforted him not to be too sad.
They had visited the graves and the houses, and it was getting late, so Mu Jingsheng took Ye Xia to the town to rest for a night before setting off back to the county tomorrow.
Ye Yun watched them get on the official road.
Only then did she go back with Qin Zheng.
"Wife, wait a moment. I'm going to the field to pick some wheat ears." Qin Zheng said, and stood up and jumped off the field.
After a while, he had a handful of lush wheat in his hand.
"Let's go back and give you some roasted wheat grains!" Qin Zheng jumped onto the road and said to her with a simple smile.
"good!"
Ye Yun also became interested and took his arm and walked towards home.
Not far away, Li Xiuying, who was out digging wild vegetables, watched the scene quietly and followed.
After dinner, Ye Yun took her changed clothes and went to the stream before it got dark.
Summer clothes are easy to wash. Just rinse them with water to wash away the sweat smell. After one night, you can wear them early the next morning.
Ye Yun had just soaked her clothes in water.
Suddenly, the little black cat at my feet started barking.
"Get away, you little beast. You can't tell good from bad. Why are you barking at your grandma?" Li Xiuying walked out of the bushes and kicked away the little black dog that was whimpering and biting her trouser leg.
Then she looked at Ye Yun and said with a smile, "Zhengzi's wife, are you washing clothes?"
