Although Grandma Hu was disappointed, she felt better after hearing that her son was still alive and well.
She forced a smile and said, "Are you all hungry? Come in and eat quickly, eat enough and go to sleep. I see that you have lost a lot of weight. Are you suffering from hardship outside?"
Ye Yutong hugged her arm and said with a smile: "Grandma Hu, aren't you suffering? It's been so long since I've eaten the food you always cooked, and we're all hungry."
Grandma Hu pinched her face gently, "Tongtong, tell Grandma Hu what do you want to eat? We will cook a small stove for you at noon."
"I want to eat so much, your steamed eggs, bacon and bamboo shoot soup..."
When Ye Yutong ordered the food, he deliberately took a sip of saliva.
This greediness made Grandma Hu, who was in a depressed mood, amused.
After returning to their small courtyard, Ye Yutong went directly to her room.
The room was clean and tidy, exactly the same as when she went out. It must have been tidied by her mother and Qiaoer.
She went to the space to wash up and came out immediately, fearing that Qiaoer would come to find her.
Ye Dafeng curiously walked around the yard several times, and then went to look at the fields outside the yard.
Then he took his wife's hand and said, "Wenxiu, you have worked hard this year."
Li Wenxiu smiled and shook his head, "I don't have anything to do with it. It's just that when you first left, we were kicked out of the old house.
At that time, we had no food, no water, and no place to live. It was a hard time for several children.
If Tongtong hadn't had the chance to be a god, I'm afraid you wouldn't have been able to see our mothers. "
Ye Dafeng gritted his teeth and said guiltily, "It's all my fault that I didn't handle the matter well before I left, which caused you mothers to suffer so much grievance."
"How can I blame you? No one knew that the old man secretly reported your name, and finally caught us off guard."
Li Wenxiu saw the apology on his face, smiled and patted his hand.
"Okay, it's all over. We lost touch with the old house on the way to escape, and we will never have anything to do with them again.
We don’t have to worry about eating or drinking here. From now on, our family will live a good life here and we will make plans when the children are older. "
Ye Dafeng looked at her with gentle eyes, "Okay, listen to my wife."
But thinking about his son-in-law's identity and the big things he and his children had done during this period, he couldn't help but frown.
"Daughter-in-law, I'm afraid I won't be stable in the future."
Li Wenxiu knew what he meant, but she felt that it was better to let nature take its course. No matter what the children did, she would fully support them.
She smiled and comforted her husband, "Children are very sensible. Let them do whatever they want. We can just take care of the rear for them."
Ye Dafeng smiled and nodded, "My wife is still transparent."
"You go back and get some sleep. I'll go to the kitchen to help. Yongchang and Mantang will come over to get breakfast later."
In the past two months, I have been working at the racecourse and cooking there.
But the work over there happened to be finished yesterday, so I brought the remaining grain over.
I was in a hurry this morning and didn't even think of bringing food with me. The whole hall would definitely come over to get breakfast after a while.
Ye Dafeng didn't sleep during the day yesterday, and worked all night at night. He was really tired now.
Li Wenxiu took him back to the room. Qiaoer was bringing out a small bundle. When he saw the two of them, he shouted with a smile:
"Godfather, godmother, Xiaoli said she was afraid of sleeping alone and asked me to keep her company. I won't come back to sleep at night."
After saying that, he smiled and ran out.
Li Wenxiu grabbed the little clever girl and said, "Didn't Xiaoli sleep with Grandma Hu? How could she be afraid?"
If you want to sleep by yourself, don’t we have an empty room for you? Can't you live there? "
Qiaoer hugged her little bundle and smiled so hard, "Godmother, Xiaoli, her grandma and her mother slept separately.
She asked me to stay with her two days ago. I wanted to stay with you, so I didn't agree.
Now that the godfather is back, I will stay with Xiaoyan for a few days. After she gets used to being alone, I will come home to live. "
Seeing that what she said was clear and logical, Li Wenxiu nodded her head and smiled helplessly.
"Okay, okay, go ahead and stay with your little sister for a few days. You'll be back in two days. What's it like living in someone else's house all the time?"
"I know, godmother." Qiaoer took her little bundle and ran away.
The couple was left standing at the door in embarrassment.
Ye Dafeng coughed slightly and asked with a smile: "Is this the child you picked up on your escape?"
Li Wenxiu walked into the house and said, "Yes, Dayuan and Qiao'er are two brothers and sisters, and the two children are very good. During the Chinese New Year, these two children recognized me as their godmother."
"Then let's take good care of them. When they grow up, the children can support each other."
Li Wenxiu made the bed for him, "Go to sleep, I'm going to the kitchen."
Ye Dafeng sent her to the creek before returning to the yard.
Lying on the soft bed, thinking about the hardships his wife and children had suffered after he left home, I couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
I gnashed my teeth with hatred for the old house in my heart, and even blamed myself for not thinking carefully and not settling the house properly before leaving.
Those who encounter the old house in the future will definitely have to settle accounts with them.
It was already evening when Ye Yutong woke up. Looking at the low roof, he remembered that they had returned to the valley.
She opened the door, walked to the stream, and stood there stretching.
Looking at the smoke rising from the large kitchen opposite, he sighed, "It's still more comfortable at home."
"Sister, are you awake?" Ye Mingzhe's voice sounded behind her.
Ye Yutong turned around and saw that he was wearing a short jacket. The clothes on his chest were wet. He must have just washed his face.
"Second brother, are you up too? Where are eldest brother and Ping An?"
Ye Mingzhe smiled and touched his head, "I just woke up and went to check in their room. My eldest brother and Ping An are not there, and my father has also gone out."
"Then let's go over there and have a look. I wonder what delicious food Grandma Hu made today. I smelled it just now."
The brother and sister crossed the creek and saw Ye Mingxuan, Li Yunze and Ye Dafeng measuring an open space on the edge of the cliff, where they should build a house.
The victims who came here can live in the land next to the racecourse, where several rows of yards have been built and fenced.
Some people should also be arranged to live in the horse farm and help raise horses in the future.
But the gentleman the Song family is looking for must live with them in the valley. Including their family members, there are nine people in the two families, and at least two small courtyards must be built for them to live in.
But there can't be that many people living there at the racecourse, otherwise Uncle Shitou and Uncle Daming would have to live in the valley.
They are all father's good brothers. Just because they took the risk to bury Ye Dafeng in their previous life, they deserve to be treated sincerely.
Ye Mingzhe and Ye Yutong walked up to them. I heard Li Yunze say: "Father-in-law, build a small courtyard against the stone wall.
It doesn't need to be too big, just three main rooms, a kitchen, and a toilet. I just calculated that six small yards can be built here. "
He pointed to the rocky ground next to Yongchang's house.
"There is about an acre of land there, and there are rocks underneath, so we can't grow crops. Then we will build two small courtyards and let the master live there.
Two larger schools will be built next door, and I will study and learn writing there in the future. "
Ye Dafeng doesn't know how many people are coming later? He didn't know his son-in-law's plans for the time being, so he didn't comment.
He just smiled and praised, "Ping An, I think you planned it very well. You used all the empty space and didn't occupy the crop land."
Li Yunze cupped his hands and said respectfully: "Father-in-law, there are some things that are not convenient to say here. I will discuss it with you in detail in the evening."
Ye Dafeng patted him on the shoulder, "It's okay, you don't need to tell us if it's inconvenient.
No matter what you do, your mother-in-law and I will support you, and our family will always be your strong backing. "
Li Yunze glanced at him and quickly lowered his head.
Ye Yutong and Ye Mingzhe were standing opposite him, and they happened to see something dripping from his eyes.
The two of them quickly turned their heads and pretended not to notice, fearing that he would be embarrassed later.
