Chapter 54 The kindness of Uncle Zhou's family

"Next time she goes to the town, she will report directly to this king."

"Yes! The subordinates then ordered to go down. ”

"Now it's so dark, send someone to send her back secretly, there can't be any mistakes."

"Yes, my subordinates will do it."

Ye Shaoke's side, she and her father drove the ox cart on the street, Ye Jing this time in order not to pass by the "Baiyan Building", he chose a very secluded road, there were few pedestrians on the road, and even the shops on both sides were almost closed.

The autumn wind in the night was already a little cool, Ye Shaoke tightened the shabby coat on his body, and his stomach was already croaking with hunger.

Hearing the scream of his daughter's stomach, Ye Jing smiled helplessly.

"Shake, open the snack, get me one, I've been busy all afternoon, and I'm already hungry."

Ye Shao was a little embarrassed, she looked at her father's back, opened a snack box, took out a piece of hibiscus cake and fed it to her father's mouth, a very natural action, but Ye Jing was a little unnatural.

Ye Jing put down the whip in his hand with one hand, held the rope holding the cow with one hand, and took the pastry in Ye Shaoke's hand.

"Shake, you can eat it quickly, aren't there still three boxes here, just leave two boxes for your mother later."

Ye Shaoke agreed "En, En" casually, and picked up a piece from the snack box and put it in his mouth.

"Wow, it's really delicious, it's not a loss from "Baiweiju", this taste is delicate, melts in the mouth, the taste is slightly sweet, and you won't get tired of eating a few pieces. ”

Hearing his daughter's praise, Ye Jing also nodded in agreement while eating.

"Yes, this "Baiweiju" is one of the best restaurants in the county, can the things there be delicious? It's just that I didn't expect that I, a rough man from the countryside, would be able to eat this "Baiweiju" one day, which is still your blessing. ”

"Dad, after shaking, let our family eat all the food in the world."

Ye Shao could see that Ye Jing was satisfied because of a piece of pastry from Baiweiju, and her heart was very sour, and she secretly vowed in her heart that she must let her family live a rich life.

Along the way, with the lantern of "Baiweiju", the ox cart drove up at night and walked a lot, and the road was very calm. Of course, what Ye Shaoke's father and daughter didn't know was that there were two people sent by the palace behind them secretly guarding them.

They were all well hidden, and they didn't notice each other's existence.

Soon the ox cart returned to Baiye Village, Ye Jing's father and daughter drove the ox cart directly to Zhou Bo's house, and by the faint light of the lantern, they knocked on the door for a long time, only to see that the door was carefully opened.

Xiao Hai in the courtyard saw the people coming clearly by the light of the lantern, and only then opened the door widely.

Seeing that it was Xiaohai who opened the door, Ye Jing's father and daughter were a little surprised, after all, it was also dark this day, and it was not safe for a child to open the door.

"Uncle Ye, Sister Xiaoke, you're back!" Xiao Ke happily called people and said hello.

"Xiaohai, why did you open the door so late, it's very unsafe for you to be like this." Ye Jing looked at Xiao Hai kindly and said.

Xiao Hai smiled mischievously: "I know it must be Uncle Ye and Sister Xiao Ke, I heard my father say at dinner, Uncle Ye and Sister Xiao Ke are amazing, they hit a wild boar on the back mountain, and said that you borrowed my ox cart to sell wild boar meat in the town, and told me to obediently guard the house at home and wait for you." ”

Xiaohai is just a ten-year-old child, except for a fourteen-year-old sister at home, just such a son, the Yang family is usually spoiled.

"Ah, Xiaohai, aren't you and your sister the only ones at home?" Ye Shaoke asked with some surprise.

"Uncle Ye, Sister Xiaoke, you come in first, I'm the only one at home, and it's been almost ten days since my sister went to grandma's house."

After Ye Jing drove the ox cart into the yard, he unloaded the cart again, helped Xiao Hai drive the cattle into the cowshed, and fed the cattle some water and some grass.

After Xiaohai and Ye Jing settled the cow and walked out, Ye Shaoke hurriedly went up and cared: "Xiaohai, why are you alone at home, your father and your mother?" ”

"Ah, don't you know, they're in your house? I thought before you left, my father told you and Uncle Ye? ”

Ye Shaoke and Ye Jingliang glanced at each other, and then looked at Xiao Hai: "Xiao Hai, you are at home alone, aren't you afraid?" ”

Ye Shao could ask in a concerned tone.

"Don't be afraid, my father said that I am a man, and I will protect my mother and eldest sister in the future."

Ye Shaoke really wanted to be on the top of the head of Rourou Xiaohai, but as soon as his hand was raised in mid-air, it fell down again.

Although Ye Shaoke is almost thirteen years old, the ten-year-old Xiaohai is about the same height as her, Ye Shaoke is a little depressed, this is all a manifestation of his lack of nutrition.

"Xiaohai is really good, come, here is a box of snacks, you take it into the house to eat, I and your sister Xiaoke will go back first, and your father and mother will come back early." After speaking, Ye Jing handed one of the snacks in his hand to Xiao Hai.

Xiao Hai has also studied in the private school in the village for a year, looking at the words "Baiweiju" written on the dim sum box, his eyes widened, he looked at the dim sum box, and then looked at Ye Jing, and he couldn't believe it: "Uncle Ye, really, is it really for me, mine?" ”

Ye Jing nodded amusedly, he knew that almost no one in the countryside was willing to give up the money to eat the things of "Baiweiju", and that restaurant was a dream for them in the countryside, a distant dream, a place where the poor and the rich tended to be separated.

Xiao Hai took the dim sum in Ye Jing's hand and smirked happily.

"Thank you Uncle Ye and Sister Xiaoke, but I'm reluctant to eat now, I'm going to wait for my father and mother to come back and eat together, oh no, I have to wait until my eldest sister comes back, and we will eat together as a family!"

The father and daughter heard what Xiaohai said, it was a little unpleasant, it was really a child from a poor family who was sensible.

Although Uncle Zhou's family lives in the village quite well, it can only be said that relying on his skills, they have enough to eat, and they can't save a few dollars all year round. -

Ye Shaoke smiled at him: "Xiao Hai likes to eat one, just eat one first, and I will give you some of the things of "Baiweiju" in the future."

"Well, then thank you Sister Xiaoke and Uncle Ye, I'll wait for my family to eat together when I'm there."

The father and daughter sighed when they saw Xiao Hai wanting to eat but not willing to eat.

"Then Xiaohai remember to lock them up, and we'll go back first."

Xiao Hai hugged the box of dim sum treasures, and when he heard what Ye Shaoke said, he agreed, "En, en," and agreed.

Ye Shaoke's father and daughter came out of Uncle Zhou's house, walked along the trail to the back mountain, and from time to time there were some insect calls in the field, and when they got close to the back mountain, they occasionally heard the low roar of some animals, which was very infiltrating.

In the distance, the father and daughter saw the faint light coming from the thatched house in the back mountain, and a sense of happiness stretched out in their hearts.

Hearing the knock on the door, Lan looked through the crack in the door and opened the door excitedly.

"I'm back, I'm afraid it's not easy to walk this night, right?" Lan took Ye Jing's back basket and said.

Fortunately, the shopkeeper of "Baiweiju" took a lantern.

As soon as the words fell, he saw Uncle Zhou and his wife walking out of Ye Yinfeng's house, and Ye Jing hurriedly stepped forward to thank him.

"Brother Zhou, sister-in-law, it's so late, it's really troublesome for you. You all put Xiaohai alone at home for me, you ...... like this"

Before Ye Jing finished speaking, he was interrupted by Uncle Zhou.

"Brother Jing, what are you talking about, you are just outside of us?"

Yang took Lan's arm and stood next to him and echoed: "Yes, your family lives at the foot of this mountain, which also makes us feel uneasy." ”

Ye Shaoke saw that his father was also out of words, and hurriedly stepped forward.

"Thank you so much Uncle Zhou and Auntie, today Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou left Xiaohai at home, just to care about our family, your family is good to our family, we will always remember it, and now our family has no relatives, if you don't dislike it, can we two families walk around as relatives."

Ye Shaoke naturally thought about it when he said this, from the separation of the family to the present, the Zhou Bo family has really helped his family a lot. At the beginning, he borrowed an ox cart but did not charge money, and then the eggs sent by the Yang family were the most touching tonight.

The back mountain is a taboo for the people in the village, few people will come here during the day, and few people even go out in the village at night, after all, the back mountain is not very far from the village, just in case a beast runs down or something.

Today, Uncle Zhou's family, leaving their only son at home, ran to the bottom of the back mountain, and came to their house just to help protect their family's family members who are sick and disabled.

Ye Jing had already experienced the rupture of his relatives today, and at this time, he could still feel the warmth given by outsiders, and he was also very moved in his heart.

Speaking of this, the easily sad Lan clan's eyes turned red again. She looked at Yang and said sincerely: "Sister-in-law, you are more good to my family than your relatives, if you don't mind, I will call you Sister Yang in the future, you are the sister I recognize." ”

In ancient times, the world took such a thing as righteousness very seriously. If it is a union, it is like a relative.

After hearing this, Yang of course accepted it happily.

"Okay, I'm two years older than you, I'll be your sister, and you'll be my blue sister." After speaking, he covered his mouth and laughed.

Everyone was surprised, because of Ye Shaoke's proposal, they became relatives who were not related by blood.

It is said that "the grace of a drop of water is reciprocated by a spring", at least Ye Shaoke's family thinks so.

Everyone celebrated this joy, and Uncle Zhou didn't want to interrupt his daughter-in-law's joy, but he thought that his son was still alone at home, so he had to say goodbye.

"Brother Jing, you are back safely, we are relieved, this time is not early, we will go back first, by the way, tonight I also heard from the Lan family that you will move out the day after tomorrow, I will send you the bed that Xiao Keding will send to you the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, then I'll send you and your sister-in-law."

Yang hurriedly interrupted: "Don't, we have prepared torches here, the beast is also afraid of this, don't worry, you and Xiao Ke should hurry up and eat something and rest early." ”

Ye Jing stubbornly refused, and in the end, Ye Shaoke proposed to send them half the way with his father, and Zhou Bo and Yang nodded in agreement.

After sending Uncle Zhou and his wife back, the father and daughter began to have dinner. Although the dim sum of "Baiweiju" is very delicious, it can't resist Ye Shaoke's appetite for growing body, and Ye Shaoke ate two bowls of white rice porridge before touching his belly with satisfaction.
