Early in the morning of the second day, after Ye Chutang and his entourage worshiped their ancestors, they went to the ancestral tomb of the Ye family.

Originally, the master was supposed to preside over the sacrificial ceremony, but Ye Chutang felt that it was too ostentatious to invite Master Shi Yuan to come again, and she didn't look down on others too much, so she simply gave up.

Ye Chutang took out a bag, which contained the grains specially sent by Master Shi Yuan.

She raised her hand and recited the greeting in her heart.

The excavation of the soil and the opening of the tomb were all done by Ah Yan and Ah Feng himself, and he did not let others help.

Ye Chutang opened the dusty black sandalwood box again, grabbed a handful of blood soil, and spread it at the bottom of the coffin.

The weather was gloomy and the atmosphere was solemn.

After the coffin was placed, Ye Jingyan handed over a shovel from the side.

Ye Chutang turned his head sideways and looked at him.

"Ah Yan, this first spade should be yours."

Ye Jingyan shook his head: "This should be the responsibility of the eldest son, but the elder brother is no longer there, so it should be the elder sister." ”

If there was no sister, they would have become the ghosts of the snow.

In his heart, no one can cross Sister A, including himself.

Ye Chutang saw that he looked stubborn, so he didn't insist, and smiled slightly.

"Okay."

She took it and shoveled a handful of new soil and dropped it on the coffin.

Ah Yan and Ah Feng followed, Xiao Wu was ignorant, and he also stepped forward and sprinkled a handful of soil, filled in the soil together, and completed the burial ceremony.

Father and mother were buried together, and my brother was by his side.

On the newly erected tombstones, their names are written on them.

There is no other person who is irrelevant.

Their names finally fell on a tombstone, which was also considered a reunion.

Suddenly a light rain fell in the sky, mixed with the smell of renovating the soil, and it inexplicably calmed people's hearts.

Ye Chutang's hand gently stroked the tombstone, and then stepped back and stood still.

The rain fell on her forehead, a little cold.

However she did not wipe it.

Xiao Wu stood beside her, holding her hand, staring ahead in a daze, and for some reason his heart was uncomfortable.

She raised her head again and looked at Ye Chutang, but she could only see Sister A's calm side face.

Xiao Wu opened his mouth, but he couldn't make any sound in his throat.

For some reason, large tears suddenly welled up in her eyes.

"Little Five?"

Ye Jingyan was the first to notice her situation.

Ye Chutang also lowered his eyes.

Xiao Wu raised his head, and his clear eyes were already red at this time.

She unconsciously grabbed Ye Chutang's hand.

Ye Chutang leaned over and gently wiped away her hot tears.

Xiao Wu didn't know what he was crying about, but he couldn't stop shedding tears, and his little body was crying and choking.

Ye Chutang simply hugged her in his arms.

"It's raining."

She patted Xiao Wu's back lightly, and took one last look at the newly raised tomb.

"Let's go."

……

Xiao Wu cried too much, and when he went back, he fell into a deep sleep.

In the evening, I developed a high fever.

Ye Chutang didn't sleep all night, and kept wiping her body and changing the water.

Just tossed all night, and when the sky was bright in the morning, Xiao Wu's fever finally faded.

She snuggled in Ye Chutang's arms, and there were still a few tears in the corners of her eyes, as if she had not been stable in her dreams.

Ye Chutang glanced outside.

Since yesterday afternoon, this rain has been falling, although it is not heavy, but it is damp and cold, and it is always uncomfortable.

Ye Chutang got up and closed the window tightly, and suddenly there was a sound of footsteps in the corridor outside the door.

"Sister!"

Ye Chutang turned his head, pressed it with his hand, and motioned for him to whisper.

"Little Five is still sleeping."

Ye Yunfeng hurriedly stopped his voice, and his pace slowed down.

Ye Chutang noticed that he was holding something in his hand.

"Why did you come to me all of a sudden?"

Ye Yunfeng came to her and handed over the things in his hand: "Sister, there is a letter for you!" ”

Ye Chutang stretched out his hand to take it.

The handwriting on the letter is beautiful - Ye Chutang personally opened.

Ye Yunfeng looked curious: "Whose letter is this?" It's only been two days since we came back, so how did we get the letter? ”

Doesn't that mean that the other party already knew that they were no longer in the capital at this time, but in Qingzhou?

Ye Chutang raised his eyebrows: "What's strange about this, we didn't hide when we left Beijing." ”

"Yes." Ye Yunfeng recalled the first two days of leaving Beijing, and sighed lightly, "Before we left, the news had already spread, and several classmates even came to ask me. ”

In the past, if they did what they didn't do, in fact, not too many people cared.

But—

"Since the opening of the Yunlai liquor store, the number of people who come to me and my brother has increased exponentially, and even a few teaching assistants are quite curious, asking Sister how you came up with the idea of making those kinds of wine."

Ye Yunfeng was simply unbearable.

How was he going to tell them, he didn't know?

Sister Ah has done a lot of things silently over the years, and it would be strange if he was clear about everything.

Ye Chutang opened the letter and said with a smile: "What do they ask, you answer truthfully." ”

The level of winemaking here is unmatched with that of later generations, and it is not difficult for her to make a business with only a few minor improvements in purity and flavor.

It's just that Ah Feng has never been interested in these, so she hasn't mentioned them much.

She wasn't interested in alcohol, it was just a means she used to exchange money.

Sure enough, Ye Yunfeng snorted lightly: "They asked, I have to say yes?" ”

How much ability Sister has in the end, even he can't figure it out, let alone others?

The envelope contained only a thin sheet of paper, with only a few lines of handwriting on it.

Ye Yunfeng caught a glimpse of the payment, and couldn't help but be stunned: "Su Pei'er? ”

Is this a letter from her?

Ye Chutang quickly read the letter, the content was very simple, Su Peier took the silver taels she gave to Shiluan City.

It was a new place for her, and she could leave everything behind and start over.

After a period of busyness, she has now settled down over there, and specially wrote this letter to thank Ye Chutang.

Ye Chutang nodded: "She has a heart." ”

Ye Yunfeng felt that something was not right, but looking at Sister A's calm expression, he felt that he was thinking too much.

Ye Chutang put the letter away, looked at him again, and asked, "Have you finished your homework today?" ”

Ye Yunfeng's expression froze instantly, and his eyes were a little weak.

"Huh? Oh, hurry, hurry! ”

At the beginning, when he knew that Sister Ah asked them to take a month off, he thought that he was going to be liberated, and he was happy for a long time.

As a result, as soon as he came here, Sister Ah actually assigned him homework in person!

He hasn't read the three articles today!

Ye Chutang couldn't guess what he was thinking, and he also reminded lightly: "Your schoolwork is only half of your third brother's." ”

Ye Yunfeng: "......"

He scratched his head: "Sister, I think those are really boring!" Why don't you find two military books for me to read! I love that! ”

Ye Chutang seemed to be smiling:

"Book of War?"

"Do you recognize all the words on it?"
