Queen of Nongmen: Hexagrams determine the universe

Chapter 228
When Mr. Ye came to the new house, Ye Qiongdan was about to go out. Seeing him coming, he called out respectfully, "Grandpa, come in and have some tea."

"Well," Mr. Ye nodded, then glanced at Xu Mingzhu beside Ye Qiongdan, and greeted politely, "Miss Xu."

Xu Mingzhu smiled politely, and yelled to Ye Qiongdan, "Hello, Grandpa."

"Okay, okay," Old Man Ye smiled sincerely, and then looked at Ye Qiongdan again, "Girl Dan, are you not busy? Not busy, Grandpa wants to talk to you about something."

"Grandpa, come in." Ye Qiongdan stepped back and let old man Ye in.

Girl Xue and Girl Hai were busy with business matters, so after saying hello to Mrs. Ye, they left first.

After Mr. Ye entered the main room, he put his hands on his knees, and looked away. As if he was having a hard time speaking, he began to talk about him: "Recently... are you okay?"

"It's all fine." Ye Qiongdan nodded.

Xiang girl went to the kitchen to make a pot of tea and poured it for Mr. Ye.

Mr. Ye didn't drink tea either. He took a deep breath and said sullenly, "A few days ago, it was, it was Grandpa who was wrong and caused you trouble. If the family doesn't talk about each other, what kind of enmity is there?" Ah, resentment, they are all angry words, so please don’t take them to heart.”

Ye Qiongdan didn't speak, picked up the copper coin for divination hanging from his waist, and played with it in his hand.

The old man must be trying to play some tricks again, she knew it in her heart.

As for his resentment towards the children and grandchildren of the second and third bedrooms, it would be strange if it could disappear.

His heart was completely skewed towards the big house. If he didn't give the big house money, the old man would blame him, but if he gave the big house money, the old man would blame him too. The second and third rooms had to be poor, and the big house was rich. This old man can only be satisfied if he has to bleed.

She has nothing to say to the old man. She will definitely not do the matter of starving the old couple to death, but if there are more, that is not necessarily the case.

Seeing that Ye Qiongdan didn't speak, Xiang girl felt a little embarrassed for a while, so she quickly came over with the teapot, poured tea for Ye Qiongdan and Xu Mingzhu, and wanted to use her sense of existence to signal Ye Qiongdan to say something.

Ye Qiongdan really spoke: "Grandpa, are you finished?"

"I mean, don't take it to heart." Mr. Ye repeated again.

Ye Qiongdan still didn't answer, but Ye Fengshun, who was doing carpentry work in the yard, said: "Father, don't worry, we won't take it to heart, you are our father, which son or daughter will bear grudges What about your own father?"

"The second child is still sensible." Mr. Ye smiled gratifiedly.

"Grandpa, do you have something to talk about here today? Or are you here to chat?" Ye Qiongdan asked straightforwardly.

Mr. Ye was a little embarrassed by her blunt words. He said with a sneer: "Say it all. Let me care about my children and grandchildren. Second child, you are making furniture for three girls, and let them bring it to you later. Dowry?"

"Yeah," Ye Fengshun chuckled and nodded, "Now, the family doesn't have to worry about food and clothing, and I don't have any skills, so I just want to make some furniture for the three girls. After they get married, they can bring furniture. A longing for home. Besides, the furniture made by my father is strong, and it can’t be compared with the ones bought outside."

"That's right," Mr. Ye nodded, "If you have time, let's also buy a set of furniture for our old couple. The old house hasn't bought new furniture for a long time. The last set of furniture was bought when you got married."

Later, when the third child got married, no new furniture was added to the house.

Originally, the old second house was kind-hearted, and it took more than half a month to arrange a set for the married third family, but the eldest daughter-in-law talked to Mrs. Ye for a while, and Mrs. Ye was also a master of search, so she listened On the idea of ​​the eldest daughter-in-law, while the second and third children were working in the field, they dragged a new set of furniture from the family to the town and sold it.

The money from the sale, Mrs. Ye said, was for the eldest family to study, but unexpectedly, the eldest daughter-in-law took it to buy a bracelet with a good head, and happily wore it on her wrist.

It didn't take long for her to get tired of wearing the bracelet, and she gave it to her natal sister-in-law as a show off.

"Okay, Dad, then I'll make a set of furniture for you." Ye Fengshun nodded.

After finishing the awkward chat about the family affairs, Mr. Ye had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Girl Dan, grandpa did something wrong a few days ago. You see, grandpa also pulled himself off to apologize to you. Look, this matter Let's turn it over?"

"Yeah." Ye Qiongdan nodded, and she couldn't argue with an old man.

"This morning, grandpa invited Li Zheng and the patriarch over here, and asked them to testify that they expelled your eldest cousin from the Ye family. From then on, he is no longer a member of the Ye family!"

As soon as this statement came out, several people in the room were stunned.

But immediately, they understood again.

It's not surprising that Mr. Ye can drive out one Ye Jiwu and another Ye Jigang.

"Then what does grandpa plan to do in the future?" Ye Qiongdan asked.

Because she took the initiative to ask about this matter, Mr. Ye immediately felt relieved: "Grandpa plans to let your uncle go back to study again."

Now, everyone in the room knew the purpose of Mr. Ye's visit.

"Girl Dan, this is all a family. Let him do the talking. In the future, he will still be your uncle, and he will treat your little niece well!" Mr. Ye promised. .

Ye Qiongdan was speechless.

Ye Feng first treats her well?That's never happened before!
"Girl Dan, look, why don't you subsidize your uncle's education expenses?" For the sake of his son and for the sake of his family's success, Mr. Ye could only say cheekily, "Just 1000 taels is enough. In the future, he will go to school, rush for exams, make friends... he will need money everywhere, the 1000 taels of silver, isn’t it too much for grandpa? In the past, the Ye family’s gold leaf, land, house, etc. It’s more than 1000 taels.”

"Grandpa, are you taking my money, is it all blown by the wind?" Ye Qiongdan asked back, "Let your two elders live a good life, that's what our sons and grandchildren should do, but for uncle, I don't have this obligation, right? "

"But he's your uncle!" Old Master Ye was a little angry again.

"What does he do like an uncle? He doesn't look like an uncle, and he expects me to treat him selflessly like a son? First, I'm just his niece, not his son; second, repaying evil with kindness , how to repay virtue?"

"I really don't want to give it?" Mr. Ye became even more angry. He even lowered his face to admit his mistake. This dead girl is still so persistent. When she was born, he really should have thrown this dead girl into the locust tree. Down the slope to fend for itself!

"No!" Ye Qiongdan said firmly.

"Second, what about you?" Old Master Ye looked at Ye Fengshun with a burning gaze.

Ye Fengshun suddenly became at a loss, blinked his eyes, and said awkwardly: "Father, I, I have no money, and you know that the money in this family is basically earned by the daughters, and I earn less , the children will not let me go out and work hard."

With that said, he ran back to the house, took out a small box, opened it, and spread it out in front of Mr. Ye: "This is the money I earned from selling furniture at the owner's house some time ago. Dad, if you really want big brother Studying, can you take the money?"

"That's all?" Mr. Ye asked disappointedly.

"It's all here," Ye Fengshun said honestly, "There is still some money in it, which is the cash money that was distributed to our second room after the separation of the family. There is also a part of Yue'e in this cash money, so I can't take it out to make decisions."

"Since ancient times, women have obeyed their fathers at home and their husbands when they get married. As a father and a husband, why can't you be their master?" Mr. Ye asked with some dissatisfaction, "Or, in your heart, there is no Without my father?"

Ye Fengshun lowered his head, his eyes were slightly red.

Seeing that the second uncle was wronged, Ye Qiongdan shouted: "Okay! Don't force the second uncle, I will pay the money."

"How much?" Mr. Ye was a little surprised, but he didn't appreciate Ye Qiongdan's affection.

"Didn't you say 1000 taels of silver?" Ye Qiongdan sighed, "That's good. From now on, every seven days, you will come to me for reimbursement with your shopping receipts. I only reimburse the four treasures of the study, books, tuition and miscellaneous fees, and exams As for making friends? I don’t care about it; I don’t care about the ice and charcoal respect for my husband; I don’t care about the rituals during the New Year and holidays. Agree, I’ll pay the money, disagree ,let it go!"

"Making friends is a necessary expense..."

"I don't think it's necessary," Ye Qiongdan waved his hand resolutely, "A good teacher and helpful friend will take you to study hard, and I will pay him for the money for the hard study; but a friend of mine will take him to eat, drink, and have fun. Do you want me to give you money?" Is this also covered? If you want to spend a lot of money, he can earn money by himself. Not to mention that I have already severed ties with Dafang, even if I have not severed ties with Dafang. After traveling all over the world, where does an uncle ask his niece? Why do you want money?"

"Then your uncle goes to school in tatters, can he afford to lose this man?" Old Man Ye patted the table angrily.

"Grandpa, how many students who study hard in the cold window, hungry and full, don't even have a cotton-padded jacket to keep out the cold in winter, don't they just go to Tianzitang at night and go to Tianzitang at night. If he cares about this, then he also Don't go to study, how can you have the mind to study if you love vanity so much? I think you only have the mind to compare."

To be honest, Ye Fengxian really doesn't care about face as much as old man Ye, and the old couple of Ye family are not so poor that they can't afford to buy him some good clothes.

Seeing that Mr. Ye was trembling with anger, Ye Qiongdan's tone softened again: "Grandpa, just say you agree or disagree."

Now that the situation is stronger than others, does he have the right to refuse?

Mr. Ye nodded resentfully, and when he walked into the yard with his cane, he hit Ye Fengshun again with his cane.

After the beating was over, he seemed to let out a bad breath, and walked out of the Ye family's new house with a livid face.

Ye Fengxian drooped his shoulders, and looked at Ye Qiongdan with some guilt: "Girl Dan, Er Bo is sorry for you, and made you spend a lot of money again."

"It's okay, just let the old man have fun." Ye Qiongdan said nonchalantly.

"Then why don't I mention this matter to Yue'e when she comes back? Our second room and third room each pay half of the money? We can't let you, a little girl, always contribute money and effort."

"Don't!" Ye Qiongdan said hastily, "I still understand the temper of the second aunt. I can't bring it up, and I will make a fuss. I don't have anything here. I'm afraid it will go to the old man again. As the saying goes Family and everything are prosperous, let's not mention this matter to the second aunt, let's just let it rot in our stomachs."

Ye Fengshun sighed and nodded sullenly.

Suddenly, a yamen servant poked his head in from outside the door, and after glancing at the yard, his eyes fell on Ye Qiongdan: "Miss Ye, the Wutou gang shot a letter with a dart and stabbed it on the grievance drum outside the yamen. , after the magistrate read it, let me take the letter and ask you what to do?"
