"Grandma, there is a skimming, there is a skimming." Ye Shen took Lin Wan's hand and came to Chen's side and said with a smile.

Chen didn't understand the meaning of Ye Shen's words at first, and then Lin Wan followed Ye Shen and said, "Grandma, there is a skimming of the eight characters!" Chen's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he looked at Father Ye.

Father Ye smiled: "Okay, okay, let's all go to the courtyard and sit down, and I'll talk to you." ”

In the small courtyard, the Wu family had just ordered a pile of wormwood smoked mosquitoes, and the family sat around the stone table in the small courtyard like this, listening to Father Ye talk about today's transaction with the Lin family while having a simple dinner.

Daddy Ye's narration is still selective, and he focuses on a few things.

First of all, it is clearly stated that the dyeing formula has been sold to the Fucheng Lin family, and according to the requirements of the contract signed by the two parties, the Ye family is no longer allowed to dye it by itself, let alone leak the formula.

Speaking of this, Father Ye's serious gaze slowly swept over everyone's faces: "From this moment on, you must completely forget that formula, but any leakage is not something our Ye family can afford." You've all memorized it for me! ”

This one can't be sloppy in the slightest!

Father Ye's eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one again, and when they saw him looking at him seriously, they nodded seriously, so he picked up the bowl and drank a mouthful of multigrain porridge, put down the bowl in his hand and began to say the second thing: "The money from selling the formula is divided into two parts, one part is reserved for Brother Qing and them to study, and the other part I plan to borrow the name of the Lin family to buy a small grange between the county seat and the capital city." ”

Sending the Ye Qing brothers to study in the town's private school is the most talked about thing in the family these days, and it has long been tacit in the hearts of the elders, so there is no question about this matter.

Buying a field and borrowing the name of the Lin family is not something that everyone can understand.

Chen's temperament is relatively impatient, and he is the second authority of the Ye family in addition to Father Ye, as soon as Father Ye's words landed, he urgently raised his own question: "Why do we use the name of the Lin family to buy land with silver, is that still our own land?" ”

Obviously, the Chen family completely understands "borrowing the name of the Lin family" as "land in the name of the Lin family", which are two completely different concepts.

"Don't worry, I'll finish what I've said." Father Ye picked up the bowl and took another sip of porridge, and then slowly explained the cause and effect.

After Daddy Ye's careful explanation, everyone finally realized that they were just borrowing the prestige of the Lin family, and the land was still their own!

"Then you are the steward of the Lin family's workshop outside?" A glint flashed in Chen's eyes.

Father Ye and Chen's husband and wife, who have been married for decades, naturally understood what this light represented, and hurriedly opened his mouth to declare that this steward was just for him to facilitate the deterrence of Xiaoxiao and the management of the farm that he didn't know where he was yet.

Chen actually understands it in his heart, but he is used to living a hard life, and he is not willing to let go once he finds a way to make money.

Although Father Ye did not clearly tell everyone how much the formula was sold for, but the fertile land sold by his family with this silver to the point where he needed to borrow the prestige of the Lin family, it must not be a small amount, at least a few hundred taels.

The Wu family also thought of this, just imagine if the income from this transaction could only buy a few acres of fertile land for Ye Qing and his brothers to study, why should they borrow the Lin family's strength?!

"Anyway, everybody shut up for me. How to live your life or how to live, as for the few of you! Father Ye paused for a moment when he said this, then turned his eyes to a few grandchildren and continued: "Tomorrow, you will go to the town with me, and give the matter of reading, and you will not worry about other things in the future, just study with peace of mind." Whether our Ye family can stand or not depends on a few of your brothers! ”

Father Ye made arrangements for the Ye Shen brothers in a few words.

Ye Qing hurriedly nodded yes, and later Ye Zhan also said that he would be obedient and study hard.

Only Ye Shen was a little reluctant: "Grandpa, I'm still young!" ”

Father Ye glanced at Ye Shen: "I heard Master Lin say, the little son of the Lin family is enlightened at the age of four, and you are five years old, are you still young?" ”

"But, but, what about my sister?" Ye Shen was entangled for a moment, and his eyes fell on Lin Wandao, who was sitting next to him and drinking gruel quietly.

Lin Wan's little hand holding the bowl paused, and her brows frowned slightly.

I thought there was nothing wrong with her, but I didn't expect Ye Shen's words to draw everyone's attention to Lin Wan, which really made Lin Wan a little unbearable.

Even if she really wanted to follow the Ye Shen brothers to the ancient private school to see the world, she also understood that this was an era of male superiority and inferiority of women, not the modern era of equality between men and women.

Not to mention the countryside here, but in the city, there shouldn't be anyone who will send a girl doll to study.

"Wanwan is a female doll, even if Grandpa sends Wanwan to study, the master will not accept it. Let's go to a private school to study, keep in mind what the master taught, and come back to teach Wanwan, aren't you so inseparable from Wanwan?! Ye Zhan rolled his eyes at Ye Shen.

Since Lin Wan came to the Ye family, in addition to bathing and sleeping, Ye Shen has almost grown up with Lin Wan, occasionally Ye Zhan takes them to mow the grass, cross a small ditch or something, Ye Zhan will be unhappy if he holds Lin Wan's hand for a while, Ye Zhan feels that it is really enough, so after listening to Ye Shen's words, he immediately went over.

"Grandpa, look what the second brother is talking about!" Ye Shen was not very happy, as soon as Ye Zhan's words came out, he was even more disobedient, anyway, he was still young, and he really didn't feel any pressure to pout and complain.

"Your second brother is not wrong, so let's take Wanwan with us tomorrow." Father Ye glared at Ye Zhan, then reached out and touched Ye Shen's little head, and looked at Lin Wan with a smile.

Lin Wan looked at Father Ye in surprise.

Does Daddy Ye really want to send her to study with him, will this be what he means?

It's just that Daddy Ye turned his eyes away and talked about the arrangements to go to town tomorrow.

Lin Wan could only silently retract her gaze, picked up the small bowl and ate the gruel inside.

Chiba Town has eight major gatherings, and tomorrow is the eighth day of the first month of June.

Hongfeng Village is relatively poor, and the village is only thankful that the village chief's family has an ox cart.

However, Chiba Town is not far from Hongfeng Village, and it will only take about half an hour to walk, and the villagers basically walk on two legs to catch the market in Chiba Town, and only borrow the ox cart of the village chief Xie when needed.

At this time, Father Ye and Ye Damin were talking about borrowing an ox cart, not because they wanted to bring Ye Shen and Lin Wan, but because they needed to send fruits to the town tomorrow.

The pears and peaches in the Ye family's orchard are ripe, and according to the agreement, the Ye family needs to pick them and send them to Chiba Town.

Although there are not many pear trees and peach trees, the situation of hanging fruit this year is good, how to say that the two fruits together are four or five hundred catties, and the Ye family alone will not be able to send the fruit to the town, not to mention that Ye Shen and Lin Wan will be brought tomorrow!
