“Then tomorrow morning, let’s go to the village head and change the name on the land deed,” said Old Man Ye.
"good."
"It's getting late, let's head back now."
After Ye Daquan and Ye Caiping left Zhao Facai's house, Du Shi took Ye Caiping's hand and said, "I really don't know how to thank you this time..."
Ye Caiping laughed: "What's the big deal? You can move into my house tomorrow and stay in whichever room you want. I have something to do tomorrow."
"Is it related to that little girl?" Ye Daquan asked.
"Yes! We have to bring Xuan'er with us tomorrow. We finally have a chance to see Master Shen."
Mrs. Du was very excited.
Mrs. Wei was very envious and wanted Ye Peng to go with her.
But thinking of Master Qian's evaluation last time, I found it difficult to speak.
No, she had to give Ye Peng a good talking-to later and tell him to try harder! There was no reason why Peng'er was still stuck there when Xuan'er had found a better tutor.
Madam Du said, "Thank you, little sister. Now that we have this delivery business, you don't need to pay for Xuan'er's tuition anymore; we can pay for it ourselves."
Ye Caiping laughed and said, "Who knows how much Master Shen will ask for?"
“If we can afford it, we’ll pay for it ourselves. If it’s beyond that, then we won’t pay for this teacher’s services. In any case, we can’t use my sister’s money anymore.”
Du truly felt unworthy of such a title.
The younger sister first gave them thirty taels, then gave them work, and now she's giving them a monthly income of twenty-four taels. She even helped them buy the land today.
She couldn't take anything more from Ye Caiping; her conscience wouldn't allow it.
Ye Caiping said, "Whether they're willing to accept it or not is still uncertain. We'll talk about it when we meet tomorrow."
The other party is living in seclusion, meaning they have retired.
If they still wanted to teach, they would have started a school long ago.
That makes sense. With such a ostentatious mansion, it doesn't seem like a place of seclusion. It must be that he's too old to teach anymore, which is why he's retired.
In Ye Caiping's memory, Master Shen was just like Master Qian, a little old man in his fifties or sixties, and Shen Manman was a woman who came late in life.
"Anyway, we'll have to pay for this repair ourselves."
"Yes, yes, yes." Ye Caiping replied with a smile, then turned to look at Ye Daquan: "Big brother, let's go find Bajin and Sanquan."
Late at night, no one in the village hangs lanterns outside, and it's dark everywhere. Ye Caiping doesn't dare to wander around alone; she needs someone to accompany her.
“I’ll go too,” Ye Erquan squeezed in.
"Let's go together then."
Ye Caiping left with the Ye brothers, Ye Daquan and Ye Caiping.
"Eldest sister, you should go back inside. The second brother's wife and I are going back."
After finishing his sentence, Old Man Ye left with Old Lady Ye, Madam Wei, and Yinhua.
As Mrs. Wei followed behind the elderly couple, her heart ached.
So I'll have to pay my own tuition from now on? That'll be two taels of silver!
...
Ye Caiping went to Ye Lizheng's house first.
They informed Ye Bajin that he no longer needed to deliver goods and asked if he would like to work in the workshop.
Ye Bajin had no reason to refuse and immediately agreed.
After Ye Caiping and the other two left, Bajin's wife clutched her chest and kept chanting Buddhist prayers: "Thank God, this matter is finally settled."
Ye Bajin sat on the doorstep drinking water: "I've never worried about this. Sister Caiping will never leave me out, no matter who else she falls for."
"You have no idea how worried I am." Eight-pound wife glared at him.
For some time now, Mr. Wei has been saying that there are no more delivery jobs. Later, the workshop was full of people again. Finally, four seats became available, but we have not seen any response from Ms. Ye Caiping.
He wanted to find Ye Caiping, but he didn't dare.
Eight-pound wife has been eagerly waiting for this moment.
...
After leaving Ye Lizheng's house, Ye Caiping arrived at Ye Ershu's house.
Ye Sanquan had long ago guessed that the delivery job was over.
He thought that only one person from each household could be selected to enter the workshop, and since Si Quan had already entered, it was impossible for him to enter as well.
Unexpectedly, Ye Caiping gave him another workstation.
Ye Sanquan was very excited.
After finishing this task, Ye Caiping went home to wash up and go to bed.
The following day, Ye Caiping posted a notice at the entrance of the workshop.
The villagers gathered around to watch, their expressions filled with delight.
Because the workshop not only filled the four vacant work positions, but also hired twenty more people.
Ye Sanquan was chosen to be a fryer, while Ye Bajin, who had a leg ailment, was assigned to guard the warehouse.
There were originally only three people guarding the warehouse, but now the number has increased to six. From now on, they will work in pairs, in three shifts.
Granny Zhao also came to see, and when she saw that Zhao Feng had been assigned to the packaging department of Qing Province, she smiled broadly.
Granny Zhao excitedly chattered all over the village, telling everyone how amazing her family was, with her son and grandson both working in the workshop.
Not satisfied with just one round, he turned around and ran out of the village to find Li Zhiyuan.
...
At this time, the Li family was still relatively harmonious.
Gu Han chopped firewood in the yard with a dark expression.
Granny Li sat in a rocking chair, chatting with Gouwa's mother while cracking sunflower seeds.
"Your servant is really useful," Gouwa's mother said with a smile.
“Yes, my son bought this especially to serve me.” Granny Li said proudly. “The reason I didn’t use him before was because he was injured. Now that his limp doesn’t hurt anymore, I’m letting him work.”
Dog-wa's mother praised, "Truly worthy of being a scholar's mother, she even employs servants."
"Hey, you there, it's so late, why aren't you doing the laundry? Don't you have any common sense?" Granny Li glared at Gu Han.
Gu Han's face was ashen. He had no choice but to collect all the clothes from the rooms and walk out blankly.
Why would the heir of the Marquis of Ningguo do such a lowly job?
He had initially thought that the family were good people.
Who would have thought that they would treat him like a servant now!
He wanted to leave, but where could he go if he left here?
Throughout his journey, he was constantly being hunted down, and no matter where he hid, he would be discovered within a few days.
The amazing thing is that as soon as he arrived at Li Family Village, the assassins seemed to have vanished instantly!
This is the only place he can hide!
He had to endure it for the sake of revenge!
"Hey, Gu Han." A sweet but awkward voice sounded from behind.
Li Jiaojiao, with her hand wrapped around her braid, walked to his side and asked, "Do you hate our family now?"
Although he was a hopeless cripple, he was handsome!
Just looking at his face makes her blush and her heart race; she can't help but want to get closer to him and win his favor.
Gu Han remained silent and continued walking forward.
“They are them, and I am me.” Li Jiaojiao walked beside him with her hands behind her back, her shoulders swaying back and forth as she walked. “I want to protect you, but if you don’t do any work, my grandma will get angry… You’re a grown man, you don’t want them to say you’re a freeloader, do you?”
