Chapter 031
Soon only Village Chief Xie's father and son and the Ye family were left in the courtyard, and Village Chief Xie stroked his beard, which was already a little gray, with a satisfied smile on his face.
Father Ye saw that the village chief had something to ask, and after thinking about it, he motioned for the Chen family to retreat from the house with the children, leaving only Ye Damin and the village chief's father and son in the hall.
Ye Shen really wanted to stay and listen to the truth, but he also knew that he couldn't help it, so he simply took Lin Wan's little hand and followed Chen and the others out of the hall.
Well, then first take Wanwan to familiarize yourself with the environment at home.
Because Master Huineng suddenly sent Lin Wan over, the originally arranged work had not been completed, and the brothers Ye Qing and Ye Zhan went out of the hall with ropes and wanted to go out again.
Seeing that the two eldest grandsons were so conscious, Chen nodded with satisfaction, looked up at the time of day, it was almost noon, looked at the hall again, and hurriedly stopped the footsteps of the two grandsons who were about to go out.
Today is Wanwan's first day to come to the Ye family, she should be a good student to celebrate, and it just so happens that the village chief is also there, and she has no chance to invite him on weekdays, so naturally she can't miss such a rare opportunity today.
Since he wants to celebrate and treat, it naturally can't be too simple, Chen plans to buy some meat dishes, tofu and wine, these are only available in the grocery store at the entrance of the village, Ye Zhan is clever and can speak well, it is most suitable for him to go on this trip.
Chen beckoned Ye Zhan to his side, took out his purse, counted some copper coins, handed them to him, and explained them in detail.
Ye Zhan took the copper coin and spread his legs and ran towards the entrance of the village, so anxious that Chen shouted behind him to be careful.
Ye Zhan didn't even look back, he raised his hand and shook it back, and his speed did not decrease.
"Brother Qing, rest today, you take Wanwan ......" Chen originally planned to let Ye Qing take Lin Wan to familiarize himself with the environment at home, but when he turned around, he saw Ye Shen taking Lin Wan's little hand to the backyard and couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Brother Shen, where are you taking Wanwan to?" ”
Ye Shen turned around and showed an innocent smile: "Milk, I'll take my sister to the backyard to see the little chicks." ”
The Chen family was originally a little worried that the young Ye Shen would be a little awkward, but now seeing that he and Lin Wan get along very harmoniously, they are naturally happy to see it, and they will not object to Ye Shen taking Lin Wan to the backyard, but just tell Ye Qing to take care of the two children in the past.
She herself entered the stove room while discussing with Wu.
Since we want to celebrate and leave the village chief's father and son for dinner, we naturally have to show 100% sincerity.
The Ye family can settle in Hongfeng Village, and one of the people to thank the most is Master Huineng, and the other is Village Chief Xie.
Although Village Chief Xie is now older and has vaguely planned to step down since last year, it is his eldest son Xie Hui who has the highest call to take over, which means that even if the old village chief quits, the new village chief is still the Xie family.
In order to live in Hongfeng Village in peace, it is very important to make friends with the Xie family.
"Mother, I'm afraid I won't be able to buy meat at this hour, why don't you go to Brother Qi's house to catch a chicken and kill the stew?" Standing silently in the stove room and thinking for a moment, Wu proposed to Chen with a slight hesitation.
Hongfeng Village is also seven or eight miles away from the nearest town, and the grocery stores in the village will also sell some meat, eggs and tofu, but the quantity will not be large, after all, Hongfeng Village is not rich.
The Chen family also had this meaning, of course, they had to wait for Ye Zhan to come back.
Ye Zhan came back quickly, and when he came back, he was carrying a piece of fat and thin pork belly in one hand and a live fish in the other.
"Yo, I'm lucky to be able to buy fish today. It's also our Brother Zhan'er who is clever, and when he sees the fish, he knows to buy it back! Chen blurted out praise when he saw the fish in Ye Zhan's hand.
"Milk, this fish wasn't bought! It was given to our family by Uncle Qi, saying that he congratulated our family on adding a new sister. Ye Zhan handed the fish to the Wu family, and replied happily, without waiting for the Chen family to say anything, he said again: "I asked Uncle Qi to come to our house for a drink, and Uncle Qi agreed." Milk, don't blame me for making it my own way. ”
Chen stretched out his hand and nodded at Ye Zhan, shaking his head and sighing, but his face was full of smiles: "Okay, okay, even if you did a good job, I will spare you today." By the way, what about the wine you bought? No tofu today? ”
"Yes, yes, yes! Isn't it like I'm going to send the meat and fish back first, the wine, tofu and two big bones are temporarily placed at the uncle's house, so I'm going to get them! Saying that, Ye Zhan ran out with a roar.
Chen hurriedly shouted behind him: "Don't just invite your Uncle Qi, let his family come!" ”
"Got it,!" When Ye Zhan's voice came back, his people were already almost down the slope, and Zhang shook his head when he saw it, this little second son is clever, but he is too lively, fortunately, he has a good character, he is also diligent, and he is filial!
With these dishes, Chen's confidence in his heart is enough.
However, the matter of leaving the village chief to eat has to hurry up and talk to Father Ye, don't let their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law be busy for a long time, but the old man did not keep the village chief.
So he pretended to send tea in and lost a look to Daddy Ye.
Father Ye had the intention of leaving the village chief at home for a light meal, and he was afraid that the village chief would be neglected if there was no preparation at home, so he immediately felt relieved when he received Chen's eyes, and nodded at Chen quietly.
The old husband and wife, you and I nodded with a look and each got a satisfactory answer, Father Ye was relieved, and Chen was also satisfied, so he quickly withdrew from the hall and returned to the stove room, and discussed with the Wu family again, and then carried a small basket to the backyard to pick vegetables.
As soon as Chen turned the corner of the house, she saw three children tinkering with something in the vegetable field, and when she got closer, she was surprised to find that Ye Qing was pulling weeds in the vegetable field, and Ye Shen was holding a small bamboo shovel to teach Wanwan how to dig earthworms, and she couldn't help but be funny and angry.
Although no one doesn't know where Wanwan's relatives are, just looking at the clothes handed over to them by the master, it is not difficult to see that Wanwan's family background is not simple, and the pampered children of large families are like children in the countryside who play with the dirt and dig earthworms when they are young, but don't be frightened when you just come!
Chen hurriedly put down the basket in his hand, took Lin Wan's little hand with one hand, snatched the small bamboo shovel in Ye Shen's hand with the other, and said angrily: "Ouch, hey, milk's good grandson, why did you bring Wanwan to play with mud?" Soiled Wanwan's clothes, be careful of your daddy spanking your ass! ”
Ye Shen, who was digging earthworms, was startled by the big hand that suddenly reached over to grab the bamboo shovel, raised his head to meet Chen's disgusted eyes, and grinned with a flattering and inviting smile: "Milk, dig insects and feed the chicks." ”
Lin Wan was not frightened by Chen's sudden appearance, digging earthworms or something was just a trivial matter for her, where she needed to be taught, and the eager expression just now only felt that this should be a normal reaction of children to new things.
Seeing Ye Shen digging and teaching seemed very serious, she really couldn't bear to hit the children's good teachers, so she had to pretend to learn seriously, but most of her attention was on observing this new home, so Chen was discovered by her as soon as she turned out of the corner of the house.
