Chapter 115 Abnormality at Home
"Sister, is this for me?" The account book in Ye Mingzhu's hand should be the original account book of the shop, but she did not expect that such a small shop could have a profit of two or three hundred taels.
"This account book only shows the profits of my shop. It's not convenient to bring the account book of the shop in the capital, but don't worry, you will definitely get the money you deserve."
Lin Dongjia still had some confidence. She opened a box under the account book, took out two silver notes and handed them to her: "This is the dividend."
"Give it to me now." It was not the first time Ye Mingzhu saw a banknote, but it was the first time she saw dividends from a jewelry store.
"Of course it's for you." Lin Dongjia said as he stood up. "My sister has come back from going out, and I can't keep you here. It's getting dark, so you should go back."
Ye Mingzhu stood up and looked at Lin Dongjia, who looked a little haggard but in good spirits.
"Sister, are you still going out tomorrow?"
Lin Dongjia smiled and said, "I'll send someone to the escort agency to hire someone soon. I'll go to the provincial capital tomorrow and will be back in about half a month."
Ye Mingzhu finally felt relieved and stopped asking questions. As long as the Lin family was fine, she was not interested in other people's family affairs.
After leaving the compartment, she walked around the shop and selected a few pieces of jewelry to take back as gifts.
When she gave him the money, Lin Dongjia didn't refuse, but gave her a discount and said with a smile, "It's just a matter of transferring money from one hand to the other."
When Lin Dongjia sent Ye Mingzhu out, Jiang Hongyu immediately came forward to greet her.
"Okay, I'll return your wife to you, and I can even eat her." Lin Dongjia said with a stern face, pretending to be angry.
Jiang Hongyu didn't say anything, but just reached out to help Ye Mingzhu get into the car.
Ye Mingzhu sat on the ox cart and waved at her: "Sister Lin, have a safe journey. Remember to ask someone to send me a message when you come back."
A hint of envy flashed in Lin Dongjia's eyes, and he smiled and waved at her.
Even as the shadow of the ox cart disappeared, Lin Dongjia was still standing at the door. The smile on his face had faded, and his face was full of loneliness.
Dongmei stepped forward and said, "Miss, it's getting dark soon. Let's go back."
Lin Dongjia turned around after a while and said, "Dongmei, you have been wronged by following me in this small town."
Dongmei shook her head and supported her arm: "As long as the young lady is there, I will be there too. There is nothing to be wronged."
Lin Dongjia retracted his gaze and patted her arm: "Go back, some problems must always be solved."
"Go find Uncle Luo and arrange a few people to go back with us."
Dongmei's eyes were full of surprise: "Miss, you have figured it out. I will go find Uncle Luo later."
Looking at Dongmei's smiling face, Lin Dongjia also smiled.
On the other side, Ye Mingzhu just got into the car and found that there were a lot more things in the car. These were the things that the two of them had discussed before and took back to the village as gifts.
As they approached the village entrance, Ye Yun'an's face was filled with longing: "Finally, I'm home."
"I see you're having a lot of fun outside," Ye Mingzhu smiled and patted his arm.
During the few days they stayed at the farm, Ye Yun'an was always running around outside. If it wasn't for mealtime, he would not be seen.
"No matter how happy you are playing outside, you have to go home." Ye Yun'an raised his head and looked at Ye Mingzhu: "Sister, it's great outside, but after staying outside for a few days, I still want to go home."
Ye Mingzhu touched his head and understood what he meant. This was homesickness.
No matter how far you go, no one will forget their hometown or where they came from.
"Hold on tight, we're going home." Jiang Hongyu said with a smile, patting the calf: "I'll give you more fodder when we get home."
The calf seemed to know that he had reached home, and he started running as fast as he could, obviously much faster than before.
The expression on Ye Mingzhu's face also relaxed a lot. Going home, what a beautiful word.
They returned to the Jiang family in the last rays of sunlight.
Ye Yun'an pushed the door open, and Jiang Hongyu drove the ox cart in.
The yard was the same as before they left, except that there were a few more clothes on the clothesline.
"Mom, we're back." Ye Mingzhu shouted into the house, holding a small bag in her hand.
Jiang Hongyu went to move the other boxes, and Ye Yunan also took a bamboo basket.
After the three of them had moved some things, Aunt Jiang finally came out of the kitchen: "Are you back? Have you eaten yet?"
Jiang Hongyu was a little surprised: "Mom, why are you in the kitchen?"
Their family never eats in the kitchen. Aunt Jiang thinks that they should eat in the main room, or even in the yard, because it is brighter and less cramped.
"...I'm alone here. I ate in the kitchen after I cooked." Aunt Jiang's expression was a little unnatural.
Ye Mingzhu pushed Jiang Hongyu. They would be away for several days, and they couldn't ask Aunt Jiang to cook for them.
Jiang Hongyu walked towards the kitchen: "Mom, what did you make for dinner? Don't eat yet. I bought some dishes in town. Let's eat together."
Aunt Jiang pushed Jiang Hongyu out and went to the kitchen: "I just cooked a bowl of noodles. I'll get a bowl and we'll eat inside."
Jiang Hongyu frowned and looked at Aunt Jiang's back. Ye Mingzhu pulled him and said, "Go and get the things in the car into the house."
Everyone noticed that Aunt Jiang was acting strangely, but she was the elder, so it would be inappropriate for them to say anything less or more harshly, especially since Ye Mingzhu and Ye Yun'an were there.
Jiang Hongyu had no choice but to swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
By the time they had finished moving their things, Aunt Jiang had already brought a few bowls and chopsticks to the main room.
Jiang Hongyu poured the vegetables he bought in town onto a plate and stood up: "I'm going to boil some hot water. I'm thirsty after walking all the way."
Aunt Jiang was distributing the dishes. She paused for a moment and said nothing.
Jiang Hongyu got up and went to the kitchen. It seemed that there was no difference from before they left.
But if you look closely, you can still see the difference. There is a pile of firewood in the corner, arranged neatly. He opened the water tank and it was full of water.
Although the Jiang family has a well, they still put some water into the water tank. Since they are not at home, who draws the water into the water tank?
He walked around the kitchen for a while and opened the cupboard. There was a plate of fish in it with only a few pieces of fish picked up by chopsticks. He touched the plate and it was still warm.
He frowned, but just closed the cupboard door and left the kitchen door ajar.
In the main room, everyone was already seated, waiting for him.
"Didn't you say you were going to boil some water?" Ye Mingzhu saw him coming back empty-handed and asked, "Is it ready?"
"Drinking hot water alone won't fill you up. I want to ask you if you want some egg soup? I'll make some egg soup." While Jiang Hongyu was speaking, he kept looking at Aunt Jiang out of the corner of his eyes.
Aunt Jiang shook her head first: "It's almost dark, don't bother with it. You've been tired for a few days and you've been driving all the way, just eat something casually."
Seeing this, Ye Mingzhu also said, "Then sit down and eat. It's the same if you boil water after eating."
Jiang Hongyu smiled, sat down, picked up his chopsticks, and suddenly said, "We bought a lot of food this time. How about I go and ask Uncle Yan to come eat with us?"
