As soon as Ye Congwen heard this, he knew that Bian Wanqing was deliberately making things difficult for him. There must be conditions to be raised later, so he simply asked straight to the point:
"Don't make trouble for the Chinese New Year. Didn't you just buy a few clothes? I'm not blaming you. Quickly bring the clothes and put them on for me. If they fit well, I will reward you."
"Are you telling the truth? I ordered ten sets of clothes for everyone in Iron Tower Village this time. You won't blame me for spending money?"
When Bian Wanqing saw that Ye Congwen let go and her goal was achieved, she quickly ran over with her clothes in her arms and asked with a smile on her face while standing outside the bathroom door.
"I've already bought it, can I still return it? Please pass the clothes in. Everyone is waiting outside for the family reunion dinner, so don't waste any time."
Ye Congwen replied helplessly, you've already killed me first and played later, what else can I do to you?
"Well, I also bought ten sets for each of your one hundred and twenty-eight child brides and their maids."
Bian Wanqing confessed again.
"Well, it should be, is there anything else?"
"Have you seen this New Year's greeting suit today? I specially asked the tailor of Jinghongfang to make it. It is the only one in Daxia. It only costs one gold bar to set. And I gave a set to the child bride's parents and elders. , when the time comes to visit relatives and friends, don’t you, Ye Congwen, also have a lot of face?”
"You've thought it through. Is there anything else?"
Ye Congwen asked next.
"I also customized fireworks. I thought it would be more lively every year, so I made a big scene. I invited everyone from Yufu Lin Mansion to have a lively New Year together on the boat. Spending money is a bit over the budget, you won’t blame me, right?”
Bian Wanqing confessed again that although he didn't spend much each time, he spent nearly 10,000 gold bars in total. If the pigeon sprouts hadn't refused to touch the 20,000 gold bars even if they beat him to death, he could have done it. Spend all those 30,000 gold bars.
Somehow, Huaye Congwen's money didn't bother me at all, and he spent it beyond the limit.
As Ye Congwen listened, he secretly swore that he would send this prodigal woman back to Bian Mansion sooner or later.
"Ye Congwen, are you really not angry with me? If you think I spend money lavishly, I will return all the clothes. The balance has not been paid anyway."
Bian Wanqing followed Ye Congwen and kept asking. Anyway, today is the Chinese New Year. According to the custom of Tieta Village, even children are not allowed to be spanked. By analogy, adults are even less allowed to spank.
Ye Congwen looked at this guy who was always opposing him, and for the sake of the Chinese New Year, he could only say calmly:
"It's okay, it's just ten thousand gold bars. I'll be back after selling a pair of top-quality medicines. Let's go out for a reunion dinner."
Bian Wanqing lost her smile instantly, stared at Ye Congwen's face, and finally couldn't help but asked suspiciously:
"Excellent treasures? When did you pick a pair of extraordinary treasures? Why am I not impressed?"
"Oh, I just picked it at the Ancient Saint Ruins. You two went to look for the soul-nourishing lotus and the marrow-cleansing flower. Naturally, you have no impression."
"You lied. You obviously picked out a pair of rare treasures. You showed them to us, and now you are trying to deceive me."
Bian Wanqing relaxed immediately. He clearly saw a pair of precious medicines that day.
Seeing that Bian Wanqing didn't believe it, Ye Congwen simply took out a pair of top-quality elixirs and waved them in front of Bian Wanqing's eyes, and then put them into the jade storage. While muttering to himself:
"The group of disciples from Duke Zhu's Mansion on the Battlefield of Hundred Beasts are quite rich. If we call them all over at the beginning of the new year, we should be able to get a good price at auction."
He touched Bian Wanqing's head with his backhand and said generously:
"If I earn a few thousand more gold bars, I will buy you new clothes."
After saying that, he strode towards the hall. The hall was bustling, and tables and stools were being set up for the New Year's Eve dinner.
The giant No. 300 of Tieta Village and more than a hundred child brides sat together in an orderly manner. Ye Wudi took a table with pigeon sprouts, fish, and Jia Zhenzhu, waiting for Ye Congwen and Bian Wanqing to sit down and start dinner.
As soon as the firecrackers were fired, everyone stood up and toasted together, cheering in unison for a happy New Year.
For a while, the hall was filled with the sound of clinking glasses and drinking together. A reunion dinner lasted until evening, and after dark, Bian Wanqing took the child bride to the river to arrange for a boat.
As night fell, with the moon above the treetops, hundreds of boats from Yufu and Linfu appeared on the water in Tieta Village. Ye Congwen came forward with pigeon sprouts to say hello, and invited the children of the two houses to play cards, gamble, and enjoy the scenery.
There are thousands of brightly lit boats, all the way from Iron Tower Village to the Hundred Beasts Mountains. Every three or five boats are arranged with singers and dancers to play, play, play, sing and dance to add to the fun.
People in Qingshan Town and Wanquan County knew that there was something happening in Tieta Village, and they also rowed boats to watch. More and more boats gathered, and Bian Wanqing commanded the giants to help guide the boats into the dark mountain river.
As soon as the boat carrying the large gambling table entered the dark river, it immediately became lively. A group of people shouted and shouted louder than the waves. The villagers and elders who came to watch saw the itch, and they also followed suit and placed bets. The quiet valley echoed with laughter and laughter, making the entire river lively.
Ye Congwen stood on a high place with the bean sprouts and looked at the entire river. It was like a fire dragon flowing in the river, illuminating the dark mountains on both sides, and the shadows were like tree elves dancing to the songs.
Ye Congwen's mind suddenly flashed back to the scene where he and Yu Yueyue went digging for the three-color elixir in the early morning three years ago. The cold painting style seems like a world away from the lively scene now.
"Brother Congwen, you said it would be great if the New Year celebrations were so lively when we were kids!"
Mudouya suddenly sighed, thinking about the Chinese New Year when he was a child, adults played cards and drank, and he and Ye Congwen could only squat in the corner and watch the snowflakes flying in the sky, and couldn't help but sigh.
Ye Congwen nodded. If it had been so lively when he was a child, he wouldn't be so eager for crowds of people and liveliness.

"Sister Wan Qing is still amazing! Even in a quiet and remote mountain village like ours, she is dressed up in a lively and colorful manner. Brother Cong Wen, have you noticed that since Sister Wan Qing came to our Iron Tower Village, the entire Iron Tower Village has become so popular? Has it become more lively and popular?”
Mudou Ya said with a smile that she admired Bian Wanqing a lot. Only she had the ability to handle such a big scene. She and Yu Yueyue were both quiet in character. People who didn't like to make troubles couldn't handle this kind of situation. Lively scene.
"I've seen this a long time ago. As long as Bian Wanqing is present, no matter whether she is a giant or a child bride, everyone will always laugh and laugh."
Ye Congwen also had to admit that Bian Wanqing's character was very lovable. The group of child brides always clung to her, but never to Yu Yueyue. In terms of intimacy, no one in this group of women can compare to her.
"Brother Congwen, do you know why I agreed to name the new house Wanqing Palace?" Mudou Ya suddenly looked at Ye Congwen seriously and asked without a smile.
"Why?"
"Because I think she is suitable to be the mistress of this palace, and she is more suitable to be the patriarch's wife of Iron Tower Village than me."
Mudouya looked at the dignified, generous and calm beauty in the river and spoke word by word.
Ye Congwen looked at Mudouya in surprise. He didn't expect that this girl would give up her seat to Bian Wanqing, and he didn't know how to answer.
"Brother Congwen, you said that if we had someone like Sister Wanqing as our mother when we were young, would our childhood be happier and happier?"
Mudouya said quietly, seeing that Ye Congwen seemed to understand what he meant, he continued:
"We will also have children in the future. I don't want our children to live a boring childhood like us. If they can have an open-minded, cheerful, lively and generous mother like Sister Wanqing to play with, I think they will definitely have no shortcomings when they grow up. ."
Ye Congwen was silent, staring at Bian Wanqing who was mingling with everyone on the boat, and suddenly shook his head and sighed:
"Little Douya, you are overthinking. Your sister Wan Qing has great ambitions and will not stay in Tieta Village to raise her husband and raise her children."
"Why not? If she is not interested in you, why would she stay in our house for a year or two?"
Mudouya was a little anxious, knowing that the two of them had gone to Junshan and there was a gap between them. Even though Bian Wanqing was so generous, what woman wouldn't be jealous or angry?
He scolded Ye Congwen:
"Brother Congwen, it's not Xiao Douya who tells you that if you really want to start a big family, then you have to keep a bowl of water straight and you can't just follow your own temper.
These people are all the biological mothers of your children, and they are all great contributors to the continuation of the Ye family. If you treat one of them lightly, there will be discord between the children in the future, and they may even turn against each other!
In that case, you might as well just marry one! "
Ye Congwen was speechless by the bean sprouts. After a long time, he muttered:
"When did I become lighter and heavier?"
"Everyone can see that you care about Sister Yueyue the most and are the coldest to Sister Xiaoyu. Others, Aunt Jiang, have repeatedly advised Lin Xiaoyu to return to Lin Mansion. Isn't it because you have no interest in her at all?
Even an outsider like Aunt Jiang can see it. Is your sister Qing blind that night? Why is she unwilling to stay in Iron Tower Village to raise her husband and raise her children? Isn't it because you are too partial and never really take her to heart?
Why does she always confront you? Make you angry? Isn't it because she wants you to pay more attention to her?
Brother Congwen, I know that you and Sister Yueyue are in love and chat well, but Sister Yueyue has the same temperament as you, and she can't be even with a bowl of water. When everyone has children, have you ever thought about your children, can Sister Yueyue treat them as your own? "
Muduzhao asked anxiously. Ye Congwen was speechless by the question. He had never thought about this question before. I hesitated for a long time, but couldn't even utter a word.
"I have seven siblings, all born from the same mother's womb. My biological parents favor my younger brothers, let alone half-brothers!
Brother Congwen, guess what:
There are so many of us sisters, who is the most popular? Who can convince the crowd the most? Who can make everyone feel at ease and let her take care of their children? "
