As soon as Mrs. Pan left, Aunt Ye hurriedly went to the study to find Ye Dacai.

Ye Dacai was grinding the wood for his father. When he saw Aunt Ye waving to him at the door, he respectfully said to Ye Maoqing, "Dad, I'm going to chop wood. If I don't chop wood, I won't have to burn it at night."

"If a man works all day long, no wonder you don't have the heart to study. If a man aspires to a career, he should study quietly. Women should do those jobs."

Ye Maoqing educated his son as a matter of course.

Ye Dacai responded respectfully, "Chopping firewood is a heavy job. My mother can't do it. Our family is poor and we can't afford menial labor, so I have to do it."

"Okay, okay, go ahead and grind the ink for me after you finish chopping." Ye Maoqing impatiently talked to his son about things that had nothing to do with studying.

This is a waste of time.

Waste of life.

Ye Dacai put down the grinding stick and carefully exited the study.

Aunt Ye pulled him and hurriedly stepped aside, "Dad, the fourth daughter-in-law came over just now and said Mrs. Li..."

Aunt Ye told the story once, and then said anxiously, "A few days ago, I asked Mrs. Li to give us gifts and be a matchmaker. If she is not honest, she will secretly give us gifts and introduce girls with bad character.

what to do?"

"Okay, okay, we can't just listen to her words. If she tries to match-match her for gifts, we won't agree to it first. We'll secretly inquire about the other person's character first. If the character is good, we'll make a decision for the gift. If the character is bad, we'll find someone else.

It’s just an excuse to quit.”

Ye Dacai was calm, and with a few words of comfort, Aunt Ye's impatience subsided.

"Then... why don't we go to Wu's house?"

"Mr. Li is a well-known matchmaker in the neighborhood. If you quit her, how can other matchmakers dare to give gifts and guarantee matchmaking?"

Aunt Ye immediately stopped mentioning this matter.

She said, "Xiaoyou is also a poor kid. When Dashan was alive, he helped us a lot. We haven't paid back the salary he lent to Xiaosan and Laojiu. Now that Dashan is gone, Xiaoyou is the only one left.

We have to take care of one bloodline no matter what."

"Well, when mother comes back, you can talk to her about this."

After Ye Dacai finished speaking, he really went to chop firewood.

Aunt Ye went to the kitchen to boil tea for her father-in-law.

As soon as the tea was boiled, Ye Cili drove a donkey cart to pick up Mistress Ye.

"Put the things in the house. I'll go to the fourth room first." Mistress Ye ordered her grandson before even getting off the donkey cart.

When Aunt Ye came out, she was greeted by Mistress Ye to get on the donkey cart and said, "Boss, wife, you come with me. The fifth wife is gone. I don't know how uncomfortable that child is. Why can you just leave that child alone?"

In an old adobe house, if something goes wrong, our second room in the big house will become an accomplice."

The second wife had a serious face and scolded her daughter-in-law.

Aunt Ye lowered her head and did not dare to say a word.

When the second wife brought her son and daughter-in-law to the fourth room, Ye Youran was breaking winter bamboo shoots with Ye Dashi Pan. The little girl didn't have much strength in her hands and her fingernails were broken.

Mistress Ye looked at it, feeling very distressed, "Xiaoyou, this is rough work, don't do it, let your fourth uncle and fourth mother do it."

"Second wife, you are back."

Ye Youran threw down the winter bamboo shoots, ran over quickly, and threw herself into Mistress Ye's arms, "Mistress, you are back. Xiaoyou misses you."

"My child, I'm sorry for you."
