"Brother, you have to be careful, don't slip under your feet!"

Ye Junmei, who was standing in the courtyard, raised his head and said with a concerned face.

At this time, Ye Junsheng had already gone to the roof, but he was picking up tiles to make up for the leaks - the scale of the Ye family's ancestral house was actually not small, with two houses and a separate courtyard. However, the family's most valuable household has been sold out, the family is in disrepair, and there are many leaks.

Whenever it rains, the rain falls in, and the mud is unbearable, and it suffers greatly.

So, today Ye Junsheng deliberately spent 30 yuan to buy a load of new tiles to fill the leak. In order to save money, I didn't invite anyone, rolled up my sleeves by myself, and went into battle in person.

Standing on the roof, he was a little swaying at first, but he quickly got used to it, and began to work steadilyโ€”his current body and bone quality were as good as before.

Ye Junmei looked at his brother nervously, for fear that he would fall, and outside the courtyard, some neighbors were also curiously watching and pointing.

Time has passed, and the matter of "bookworm enlightenment" has slowly spread, and Ye Junsheng's various positive behaviors are the best proof.

In this regard, some of the neighbors sighed, some were happy, and some sighed.

Regarding other people's opinions, whether they change or not, Ye Junsheng doesn't care much, after all, he has lived his own life, and he has already been measured how to go.

Today, the sun is shining, the sun is shining on the body, the warmth is smoky, and when you exert yourself, it is inevitable to sweat out.

Ye Junsheng was immersed in his work, when he suddenly heard a commotion below, thinking that something was wrong, he quickly stopped and leaned out to watch.

"Brother, come down quickly, Grandpa Jiang and Sister Jiang are here!"

Ye Junmei shouted first.

Well?

Ye Junsheng was stunned, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly went down the ladder to the house. Down-to-earth, when I looked up, I saw Jiang Jing'er standing in the courtyard with a spirited old man.

The old man, who was over the age of six, was burly, showed no signs of ricketism, had three long wisps of beard, and his eyes were bright; he was wearing a robe and a flat-topped scarf, and he had a calm bearing.

And Jiang Jing'er rarely changed into a women's dress today, the color of the dress is red and bright, like a bright flame, adding a heroic spirit to her charming face.

Her expression was dazed and unenergetic, but when she caught a glimpse of Ye Junsheng raising his hand to wipe his sweat and wiping his face into a big cat, he looked very funny, and couldn't help laughing.

This smile immediately attracted a glare from the grandfather.

Lady, you have to be a lady!

Jiang Jing'er hurriedly held back and lowered her head slightly to hide the arc of the smile that could not be calmed down at the corner of her mouth.

"The kid has seen Grandpa Jiang. โ€

Ye Junsheng made a gift.

Grandpa Jiang's name is "Zhinian", and he is sixty years old this year, but as the head of the Jiang family, he is still busy with business all year round and does not see fatigue. He is a person who practices martial arts, and he has martial arts, so he maintains a good state of spirit.

He looked at Ye Junsheng with some surprise and asked, "Junsheng, how did you climb onto the roof?"

Ye Junsheng replied: "Pick up the tiles and fill the leaks." โ€

"Oh, now you can do this?"

Ye Junsheng said indifferently: "If you can read the books of sages, you can manage family affairs." "The so-called family affairs refer to everything from the inside out.

Jiang Zhinian was stunned, and then laughed: "Self-cultivation and governance, Junsheng is really not Wuxia Ameng." "I didn't need to say hello, I raised my legs and went straight into the house.

There was no tea at home, so Ye Junmei had to pour out two bowls of boiling water to entertain her, one of which was missing a small sip, which was very eye-catching.

Jiang Zhinian didn't care, glanced around, sighed, and didn't say anything.

Ye Junsheng asked: "I don't know ...... Grandpa Jiang is here today."

Jiang Zhinian waved his hand: "For many years, the old man has never taken care of your brothers and sisters, do you have any complaints in your heart?"

Unable to guess the other party's intention for a while, Ye Junsheng groaned slightly, and said: "Poor people must have something to hate, the kid used to be muddy and didn't want to forge ahead, he was really to blame, how dare he complain about the sky?"

"The wretched will have something to hate......

Jiang Zhinian chewed on this thought-provoking sentence in his mouth, never expecting that Ye Junsheng would actually evaluate himself like this, without any excuse for prevarication.

Jiang Jing'er was also stunned, and glanced at Ye Junsheng seriously, and her eyes flashed with brilliance.

After a while, Jiang Zhinian asked again: "Jun Sheng, do you remember that when you were twelve years old, your parents were still alive, and they asked me to persuade you not to indulge in the old papers?"

A memory flashed through Ye Junsheng's mind, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Remember, that day you lobbied the kid for two hours, then reprimanded for another hour, and finally scolded for half an hour. And in the end, I only held a volume of "Four Books and Twelve Stories of Floor Notes", read it aloud, and ignored your old teachings. โ€

"Just remember, that day, the old man was angry, scolded you for 'the mud can't support the wall', and finally brushed his sleeves away. From now on, I will not come to your door again. Because I would never want to marry my favorite granddaughter to a stubborn nerd like you. โ€

As he spoke, Jiang Zhinian was so angry that his beard swayed.

Ye Junsheng stood solemnly: Ask yourself, no matter who this kind of thing happens, you will hold back your anger, even if a few years have passed, this anger may not be able to be eliminated and calmed down.

"However, the old man and your grandfather are friends in trouble, and they have a lifelong friendship, even if they don't like it, they don't propose to dissolve the marriage. It's just because I want to give you another chance to see if you can read more than 10,000 books. Unexpectedly, I waited for seven years. โ€

Ye Junsheng said: "Thanks to Grandpa Jiang's love, the kid is ashamed." โ€

Jiang Zhinian glared: "Don't be ashamed, the old man hasn't finished speaking." Although it may seem like you have the ropes now, you always need to prove it. โ€

Ye Junsheng asked, "How do you prove it?"

"Next year's spring boys' exam, if you can get the fame of Xiucai, it will be proof. At that time, I will make the decision to let you and Jing'er officially marry. โ€

"Grandpa!"

Jiang Jing'er next to her blurted out urgently. The purpose of her trip this time was to directly dissolve the marriage contract, and she didn't expect her grandfather to make such an agreement with Ye Junsheng.

"Grandpa, how can you do this?"

Jiang Jing'er felt aggrieved and pursed her mouth in protest. From the bottom of her heart, she is absolutely unwilling to marry Ye Junsheng, even if the other party is enlightened and is no longer a bookworm, but the essence of a weak scholar has not changed, even if she has fame, it is the same.

Jiang Zhinian said in a low voice: "Jing'er, how did your grandfather teach you since you were a child? โ€

was reprimanded by her grandfather, Jiang Jing'er puffed out her eyes very stubbornly.

Jiang Zhinian turned his head to face Ye Junsheng and continued: "But Junsheng, if you can't get famous, the marriage contract between the two families will be automatically invalidated. In addition, during the whole process, my Jiang family will not support you in the slightest, and it will completely require your personal efforts, is it clear?

He has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and his temperament is quite martial arts, and he speaks boldly and directly. In this regard, Jiang Jing'er inherited her grandfather's genes.

Ye Junsheng smiled suddenly: "I have an opinion." โ€

"Huh?"

Jiang Zhinian raised his eyebrows and suppressed the annoyance in his heart: "What do you want?"

Ye Junsheng's eyes were clear, and he said word for word: "Actually, the kid doesn't like Sister Jiang very much, since they don't love each other, why bother reluctantly? Terminating the contract is the best way." โ€

As he spoke, he took out the red wedding book from his arms, pulled it lightly with both hands, tore it open, turned it into shreds, and fell lightly to the ground.
