Chapter 18: The Autumn Harvest Farce
Ye Kun used to often help Ye Qian's family with the autumn harvest, but every time he helped them with the autumn harvest, it didn't matter if they didn't help, his own family had to go home to cook and eat, once or twice, it was okay, every time it was like this, he was a little unhappy, and then he also figured it out, they didn't treat their family as brothers and relatives at all, they just treated them as helpers who didn't need money.
In that case, why does he have anything to do with them?
Now he has figured it out, just live his own life, as for them...... It's none of their business.
"Second brother, what are you talking about?"
"Hehe, big brother, you just treat our family as helpers who don't need money, when did you treat us as relatives? You can find another way to do the autumn harvest, we are still busy, Aya'er quickly cleaned up, eat, and continue to be busy after eating. ”
"Here we are." Ye Aya'er took out the food and put it on the ground, and served some rice for everyone.
Looking at Ye Qian, who was still standing on the side, Ye Aya'er frowned and said, "Uncle, my family doesn't have so much money to buy food, so I won't leave you to eat, but I don't think you can look down on the little things our family eats." ”
As soon as Ye Qian was about to get angry, Ye Kun spoke: "Aya'er doesn't care about him, their family is rich, and they definitely don't look down on us for food." ”
Ye Kun talked like this, and Ye Qian couldn't continue to stay, so he could only leave with a gloomy face, and glared at Ye Aya'er fiercely when he left.
Ye Aya'er glanced at Ye Qian, didn't pay attention to it, and helped with the autumn harvest in the field after eating.
After Ye Qian went back, Li Lanhua hurriedly walked over: "How is it?" Are they coming? ”
"No, they won't be coming to help us with the autumn harvest this year." Ye Qian frowned and said, his eyes were full of dissatisfaction with this matter.
Li Lanhua suddenly said sharply: "How can this be? We have so many fields in our family, we will definitely not be able to collect them all, not to mention, it takes a lot of money to hire people for our waist, where do we get so much money? In previous years, as long as you said it, didn't they all come? Why didn't you come today? What do they mean by that? ”
Ye Qian is also very strange, why does Ye Kun seem to have changed this year?
In previous years, their family collected grain, all of them were helped by Ye Kun's family, they didn't care at all, they could collect the grain cleanly, not to mention the trouble, and they also saved their family a lot of money every year, not to mention one or two taels of silver.
Today, Ye Kun's attitude made him a little uncomfortable.
"Xianggong, you go to your mother and say, as long as your mother speaks, Ye Kun will definitely agree obediently, with the money from the inviter, we can buy a lot of things for our son and daughter." Li Lanhua said with a frown.
Of course Ye Qian knew this truth, but Ye Kun had also said it before, even if the old lady went to say it, he would not agree, he was worried that this was true, Ye Kun really would not agree.
"I'll talk about it."
Mrs. Ye knew that Ye Kun refused to come to help them with the autumn harvest this year, and she was immediately angry, since Ye Aya'er woke up from an accident, Ye Kun's family was already out of control, Ye Kun not only didn't listen to his own words, but also dared to talk back to himself, thinking of this, Mrs. Ye's face was very ugly.
Mrs. Ye said coldly: "Let's go, let's go and see, I want to see if he doesn't care about me as a mother." ”
Ye Kun watched Ye Qian lead Mrs. Ye over, there was no surprise at all, just looked at the old lady lightly: "Mother, you came to me for something?" ”
"Ye Kun, why don't you help your eldest brother's family collect grain this year?" Old Madam Ye asked unceremoniously.
"Mother, we have long been separated, why should I help them? And what were the results of the help I got from them in previous years? Do they really treat our family as helpers who don't need money? Your family's nearly 100 acres of grain was collected by our family, and our family helped you collect grain, but there was no food to eat, not to mention, it was your family's grain, but when did you help? I don't say it, and you don't really think I don't care. "I didn't care about it before, because I thought it was all family, but now that I heard Aya'er's words, he can be considered to have figured it out.
Even if he went to help his neighbor, the neighbor could still say thank you, but what about his relatives? I didn't have anything to eat, and I took it for granted that I didn't do my own things.
Mrs. Ye's face suddenly became a little unbearable, her old face turned red, she knew that every time she harvested food, their family would become a joke, just because every year during the autumn harvest, they had to ask Ye Kun's family to help, even if it helped, their family didn't go to any of them, they didn't say anything, they didn't even give food to others, although no one said it in front of them, but she still knew that the people in the village were saying that they were using Ye Kun and them as people who didn't want money.
She didn't think there was anything before, after all, this was her own son, what did she want, it wasn't her own business? What does it have to do with these people?
But now when she heard her son say such things, her face was very unbearable.
"Are you blaming me?" The old lady said with a cold face and a frown.
Ye Kun shook his head: "What am I complaining about you?" I have never complained about you, I just want to tell you that I will not manage your family's affairs in the future, isn't the eldest brother's family rich? Isn't it enough to find someone to do it? Still need my help? ”
"You ......"
"Mother, I said it a long time ago, I just want to take my family to live our own life, I don't want to continue to have anything to do with you, and I don't want to do this thankless thing again." Ye Kun said lightly: "Today is if you say that I am not filial, it is okay to do anything else, I also said here, in the future, you don't want me to help him make cattle and horses, our two families have separated twenty or thirty years ago, and we have done enough things for his family over the years." Ye Kun said unceremoniously.
Hearing Ye Kun's words, the old lady was so angry that she had nothing to say.
Ye Aya'er heard Ye Kun's words in the field, and quietly breathed a sigh of relief, she was worried that Ye Kun would compromise when this old lady came, and now it seems that she is worried too much.
Ye Qian saw that it was not easy for his mother to come over, so he immediately said dissatisfiedly: "Ye Kun, my mother has come to say it in person, you ......"
"Big brother, just shut up, don't say I'm not filial, I've been helping your family collect food for free for more than 20 years, it's enough, you don't want to continue to talk to me here, I don't want to hear you say this, just one sentence today, I won't accept your family's food this time."
