After buying the meat, Ye Jiaying met Ye Jiawei, the second brother of Ye, at the place where he usually rode the ox cart.
The brother and sister met once before their eldest brother Ye Jialei ran away from home.
Later, Ye Jiaying started school and Ye Erge had not yet had his holiday, so they didn't see each other again.
The first voice Ye Jiaying recognized was that of Second Brother Ye.
He still had a loud voice and was laughing foolishly with the old man driving the ox cart.
"elder brother."
Ye Jiaying kicked the heel of Ye Erge, who was laughing foolishly.
She had too many things in her hands and couldn't free her hands.
Brother Ye turned around and saw that his sister had taken so many things, so he quickly took them and put them on the ox cart.
"Why are you here so early? I said I would pick you up at the station later."
Second Brother Ye should have arrived a while ago, with tiny beads of sweat on his forehead.
"I met a senior brother, and they drove me back."
Ye Jiaying briefly explained the situation.
Today is Mid-Autumn Festival. Many families have bought things in advance, so I didn’t see many familiar people.
The brother and sister waited for a while, and two more people came to get on the bus, so the old man took the four of them and rushed back.
He also wants to go home for the holidays.
When I returned to Yejia Village, Ye Xiaomei was playing with a group of peers at the entrance of the village.
While playing, he would also look towards the main road at the entrance of the village.
When the ox cart that Ye Jiaying and her friends were riding in appeared in the children's sight, Ye Xiaomei stood up happily and said goodbye to her friends.
She trotted over to meet him.
"Brother, sister, you are back. Mother asked me to pick you up."
"Well, I'm back. It's not like I don't know my home. What else do I need to answer?"
Brother Ye Er touched Sister Ye’s head and said with a smile.
Ye Xiaomei pushed her second brother's dirty hands away in disgust.
Go and take the things from Ye Jiaying's hand.
"Sister, are you having fun at school?"
"Is your teacher fierce?"
"Do you get along well with your classmates?"
"Do you have homework for the holidays?"
…
It was the first time that Ye Xiaomei was separated from her sister for such a long time, and she stuck to her and asked her all kinds of questions.
Even when he saw his favorite meat, he didn't ask a single question.
They all asked about Ye Jiaying's situation.
Ye Jiaying is an only child in modern times. She has cousins and the relationship with them is pretty good, but she has never encountered such a clingy situation before.
She felt warm inside and answered softly.
"I'm fine. How are you? How are mom and dad?"
"I'm doing fine too. I've just started a new class..."
The two sisters were chatting in the front, and Brother Ye was carrying a lot of bags in the back.
Occasionally she met people from the village, who greeted her warmly, saying, "The college student is back."
Ye Xiaoer is back.
Go back quickly, your parents are missing you.
Ye Jiaying felt strange being called a college student, so she smiled politely at them and silently quickened her pace.
"Dad, Mom, second brother and sister are back."
After returning home, Ye Xiaomei opened the door and shouted towards the yard.
Father Ye was sitting in the yard under the shade of a tree, weaving something.
Ye Jiaying followed Ye Xiaomei into the house and called out "Dad" to her father who was looking at her lovingly.
"Ying girl is back, the second brother is back."
Ye's mother came out of the kitchen and was shocked to see what the three people were holding.
"Hey, why did you buy so many things?"
"Yingmei bought it, and I just took the things given by the factory." Brother Ye said as he carried the things to the kitchen.
"Why are you buying so many things? How much does it cost? Keep the money for yourself."
Mother Ye looked at Ye Jiaying with annoyance, but there was more joy than blame in her eyes.
"I bought it from the cafeteria, and I can't finish it."
Ye Jiaying avoided the important issues.
Ye's father and mother are two good people. She can't do anything else, so she tries her best to buy more food for them.
"If you can't finish it, save it and eat it later. You've lost weight. You don't need so much food at home. Don't buy it next time."
Mother Ye pulled Ye Jiaying to look at her, then pinched her arm with some heartache.
"I am strong..."
Ye Jiaying brought up what she had said to Ye Xiaogu again.
"You must be tired. Go drink some water and take a rest. Mom will prepare dinner soon."
We had lunch at home at noon, and Ye's mother made hand-rolled noodles for us.
Pure refined flour, no adulterated grains.
They say dumplings when you get on the bus and noodles when you get off.
Ye's mother is very thoughtful.
In the afternoon, Ye's mother divided the mooncakes that Ye Jiaying brought back.
I gave one copy each to Grandma Ye and Uncle Ye.
In the evening, we had dinner together at Uncle Ye’s house.
Although the Ye brothers have separated, they still eat together during the New Year and other festivals.
Ye Jiamin and her second cousin were not at home.
I heard from Ye Xiaomei that my cousin made some money and went to the south. She won’t be back for two weeks.
"It doesn't make sense for a little girl like her to go to such a far place by herself. I had no choice but to let her brother accompany her. It's so far away, and she won't be able to come back for the holidays."
Aunt Ye and Mother Ye were cooking in the kitchen, and her complaints came through the "thump, thump, thump" sound of cutting vegetables.
Both Aunt Ye and Mother Ye are good-tempered people. Although they both care about their own families, there are no major conflicts between them.
The sisters-in-law get along pretty well.
"Jiamin is so capable and you're still complaining. If you don't like her, let her come to my house. I like capable children."
Ye's mother's joking voice came.
"Go ahead, you wish."
Aunt Ye spat with a smile.
Then he sighed again.
"You mean Min, you've already graduated from college. You're 23 now, and next year will be your zodiac year. I didn't say anything about her when she was in school, and now that she's graduated, she hasn't even mentioned finding a partner. Several families have asked me about it, and she's still unhappy when I ask her."
