Chapter 371
It was already night when Ye Xiuwen came back, he drank a lot, his face and neck were flushed.

Yin Tao was busy getting someone to carry water for him to bathe. After bathing, the redness on Ye Xiuwen's face became slightly better.

He drank another bowl of hangover soup before fully waking up.

Yin Tao asked him to go back to his room to rest, and the two lay on the bed. Yin Tao asked, "Is there something you're hiding from me? It's not just about moving the grave when you come back, right?"

Ye Xiuwen froze, turned to look at Yin Tao, just in time to meet her scrutinizing gaze, and looked away embarrassingly.

Yin Tao turned over and sat up, turned Ye Xiuwen's sideways face back and looked at herself: "Say, what is it? The secret mission that the emperor gave you?"

Ye Xiuwen stretched out his hand and hugged Yin Tao tightly, and then kissed her, trying to interrupt his daughter-in-law's inquiry in this way.

Even though she knew Ye Xiuwen's intentions, Yin Tao still quickly surrendered and lied in Ye Xiuwen's arms, allowing the man to kiss and caress passionately.
The next day, Ye Xiuwen got up early in the morning to practice martial arts, and the sound of Ye Huaixu reading aloud could already be heard from the courtyard next door. It seemed that Ye Xiujin had time to take care of his son.

Hearing the sound of Ye Xiuwen's long knife piercing the air, Ye Huaixu's voice of reading gradually quieted down. He ran out from the next door with his book in his arms, and saw that his uncle was practicing martial arts outside.

The little boys liked to dance with knives and guns, so they watched intently from the sidelines and forgot to read.

Ye Xiujin was reading in the room, and suddenly he didn't hear the sound of his son reading. When he went out to look, there was no shadow anywhere. He remembered that Yang Qinyun said last night that his son's studies were too relaxed. Looking at it this way, it was true.

Stepping out of the courtyard with a bit of anger, he saw Ye Xiuwen wielding his saber under the dim light of the sky. He really looked like a dragon and looked like a rainbow.

And his eldest son just stared blankly with his book in his arms, clapping and applauding from time to time, obviously very fond of it.

In the past, Ye Xiujin would have been very angry. In his eyes, studying was the only way to go, but now it is different. After going through too many hardships, his mood has long since changed.

He walked over and stood beside his son, Ye Huaixu saw his father coming, his eyes widened, panic flashed in his eyes, he hurriedly said: "Father, Xu'er was wrong, Xu'er will go back to study now!"

Seeing his son flustered, Ye Xiujin felt a little distressed, knelt down and looked at him: "Are you afraid of father?"

The son nodded and shook his head again. He is a sensible and sensitive child. Now he has a new mother who takes good care of him and his younger brother, but he is not as indulgent as other children. Now this is a little out of line, he is very Excuse me.

Ye Xiuwen also saw them talking, thinking that his elder brother was going to reprimand Ye Huaixu, so he quickly put away the knife and came over.

Seeing that they were in a stalemate, Ye Xiuwen said: "Does Xu'er want to practice martial arts? His body is also a little weak, so let's do it, anyway, he's fine now. From now on, Xu'er will practice martial arts with me for half a day, and how about writing for half a day?"

Ye Huaixu's eyes lit up, and seeing his father nodded with a complicated expression, and saluted his father and second uncle, he happily ran back, he wanted to share the news with his younger brother.

Ye Xiujin stood up, looked at the misty mountain in the distance, and sighed: "Xu'er is too thoughtful, we are the ones who killed him, he lived in the shadow of me and her mother every day when he was a child, and later his younger siblings let him go It’s a little better to go to Zhuangzi.”

What he didn't say was that after having a stepmother, his mind became a little sensitive again.

Ye Xiuwen also understood, but he had never raised a child, how could he know this.

After returning home, he found that Yin Tao was still sleeping, so he simply took off his clothes and got under the covers to sleep with his daughter-in-law.

But he couldn't sleep at all, remembering the emperor's secret decree before he left, asking him to check the taxes here.

The imperial court is short of money, very poor, very poor!
The Jiangnan side was originally a big taxpayer, but the emperor found that the tax revenue here has been decreasing year after year.

When the new emperor came to the throne, there were not many people who could be used, and even fewer people could be trusted.

The so-called knowing yourself and the enemy, if you want to investigate the situation here, you can only break into the local officialdom first, so he went to socialize with those people and got drunk.

Looking sideways at his wife, this man really knows himself too well.

After breakfast, Ye Xiuwen and Ye Xiujin were both sitting in the main room, and Fourth Uncle Ye and Seventh Uncle also came.

Today everyone will discuss the matter of moving grandfather and parents into the ancestral grave.

Brother Ye Xiuwen is not very familiar with these things, so it all depends on fourth uncle and seventh uncle.

But the fourth uncle who had just taken over the affairs of the clan was also very busy, so the seventh uncle took the lead, and he was very happy, because it was better to be needed than a useless waste.

Seventh Uncle led his son and Ye Xiujin to work, Ye Xiuwen had officials come to invite him to dinner almost every day, and he came back drunk every day.

Ye Xiujin also understood that Ye Xiuwen was a measured person, presumably he had business to do.

When Ye Xiuwen came back drunk again, Yin Tao became angry, thinking that Ye Xiuwen's body was obviously full of makeup, which must be caused by the presence of women by his side.

Instead of helping him take a bath, he went to the wing to look at the account book.

She said she would do it if she wanted to start a silk factory, and she spent the past few days in the workshop in Yejia Town to understand the cost and profit, which made her more confident.

After Ye Xiuwen took a shower, he ran over without wringing out his hair, and the clothes he just changed were also soaked.

Yin Tao pretended not to notice, Ye Xiuwen came over awkwardly, looked at the account book in Yin Tao's hand and asked, "You still look at the account book at such a late hour? Don't look at it, it hurts your eyes!"

"It doesn't matter, how much it can hurt your eyes, it's not as good as second master drinking and hurting your body!" Yin Tao replied coldly, and then looked at the account book in her hand.

Ye Xiuwen laughed along, dishonestly set fire to Yin Tao's body with both hands, so angry that Yin Tao pushed him away, stood up and went back to the room.

The two entered the room one after the other, Ye Xiuwen asked the servants to go out, then went to Yin Tao and hugged her: "Daughter-in-law, I'm dizzy!"

Yin Tao really can't do anything with this guy, she's still acting like a baby at such an age, and then she thinks that he's drunk, and now it's autumn again, so she can't be angry with him, if she gets a headache, it will be a disaster.

After all, a woman's heart is soft. Although she was sullen, she still asked him to do it well, and took a handkerchief to wipe his hair.

Ye Xiuwen felt Yin Tao's fingertips touching the top of his head from time to time, and felt extremely at ease.

He squeezed his eyes and sighed: "It's not that I didn't tell you, but I don't want you to worry about it."

"If you don't tell me, I can guess. Did the emperor ask you to monitor the officials here?" Yin Tao didn't want to know about him, but just wanted him to restrain himself. ?

She didn't know that there would always be singers and dancers at men's banquets, and there would also be women serving tea and wine.

Thinking of Ye Xiuwen talking and laughing happily with other women in his arms, drinking the wine poured by other women, and eating the vegetables served by other women, Yin Tao felt sour in her heart, as if soaked in old vinegar.
