After fleeing famine, I have thousands of acres of fertile land

Ye Laosan picked up a few children and drove back. On the way, he was still worried and asked, "How is Qilang's private school? Is the teacher teaching well?"

Ye Chenyu said a little unhappy: "Dad, from now on, you have to call me Ye Chenyu, don't call me Qilang anymore. In the private school, we all call each other by our names."

The others also nodded. No one in the private school called people by their nicknames.

Wei rubbed her son's head and said with a smile, "We call you by your nicknames at home, but we won't call you by your nicknames when we go out."

Ye Chenyu was satisfied then. He put his arm around Wei's arm and told her about the private school.

"Mom, the students in the private school study very hard, the teacher is very strict, and the grandma who helps us heat up the food is very nice."

"Qilang, you must listen to your teacher in the private school and study hard. After you pass the imperial examination, you can help the family to exempt taxes."

Ye Chenyu also knew the situation at home. Being able to go to private school must have put a lot of pressure on his family.

The others were not so excited anymore. Ye Chenyu took the lead and several of them recited together what they had learned today.

Ye Laosan was listening to the children reading in the front and did not make any noise to disturb them.

They recited it four or five times on the way, and were very proficient in it when they returned home.

The family had prepared dinner for them. Today was their first day of school, and Old Man Ye was very concerned. He waited for them to come back while chatting at the entrance of the village.

"Dad, we're back. Let's go back and have dinner together. We'll talk tomorrow." Ye Laosan greeted the villagers one by one.

Old Man Ye stood up, said goodbye to his old friend, got in the car and went back.

When Ye Qing was washing snails at the door, he saw his uncle's ox cart coming from afar.

Ye Qing stood up and went out to greet them. "Dinner at Third Uncle's house is ready. We'll have dinner at my house tonight. It's the first day of school for the brothers, so let's celebrate."

Ye Laosan did not refuse. He parked the ox cart at the door and helped carry the book box in.

Ye Qing looked at the heavy and space-consuming book box and didn't quite understand why a cross-body book bag could hold a lot of things without using a book bag.

Ye Qing thought about it and asked, "Brother, isn't it heavy for you to carry this book box? Book bags are much better, they are not heavy either, and you can put things in them freely."

Wei also felt sorry for her youngest son carrying such a heavy bookcase, "Qingya, what is a book bag? What is it made of?"

"Aunt, a book bag is made of cloth. Two pieces of cloth are sewn together, the top is not sealed, and then a strap is made to carry it on the body."

"It will take a lot of cloth." Wei was a little hesitant.

"Aunt, use the defective cloth you bought. It won't take much cloth and it will last for many years."

"Help your aunt to make one for your brothers later."

After the two finished chatting, they went to help Zhou serve the dishes. Today Zhou made a dish of three fresh vegetables, a seasoned cucumber, and the meat she bought yesterday, and stir-fried some beans.

While eating, the family members asked them again about their life in the private school before letting them go back to do the homework assigned by the teacher.

My aunt came over after dinner and also wanted to make school bags for her two sons. They are still young and the heavy book boxes will weigh them down and prevent them from growing taller.

Ye Qing took the cloth that Zhou had helped to cut and showed her how to make a school bag. Zhou was also a deft hand and made one in no time.

Ye Chenjing took his books out of the bookcase, put them all in his book bag, and tried to carry it on his back. It was indeed much lighter.

Ye Chenjing likes this school bag. No one else in the private school has it. When he carries it tomorrow, everyone will surely be envious.

Ye Qing asked Zhou to make one for Lin Wenxuan. The book that his brothers copied was borrowed from him.

The next morning, everyone changed into school bags, and Ye Chenjing also took Lin Wenxuan's school bag with him.

As soon as they entered the private school, their classmates gathered around them. None of them had ever seen a book bag before.

Ye Chenjing walked around the school with his school bag on his back, looking proud, before he took out Lin Wenxuan's school bag and gave it to him.

Lin Wenxuan liked it very much. His book box was very heavy, and he was reluctant to ask his grandfather to pick him up, so he could only carry it back and forth by himself.

As soon as Lin Wenxuan took it, a chubby hand next to him snatched the school bag away.

"Liu Rui, this is something I gave to Lin Wenxuan, give it back to me."

Liu Rui's family runs a restaurant and the whole family dotes on their only boy, so he has a somewhat overbearing personality.

Liu Rui had never seen this rare object before. He took it in his hand, looked at it, put his book inside, stood up and walked around carrying it.

Liu Rui then spoke: "I want this one, and you make one for him. It is your blessing that I want your things."

Ye Chenjing was dead, and he took away my things. It was my blessing.

Ye Chenjing was not very old, and he was also a tough guy. He snatched the school bag and dumped out all of Liu Rui's things.

Liu Rui had never been wronged like this before. He cried and shouted, "If you don't give it to me, I'll let my dad beat you to death."

Liu Rui was surprised to see that Ye Chenjing was not afraid. Usually at home, his two sisters would give it to him as soon as he asked.

Ye Chenjing was still adding fuel to the fire, "Little crybaby, little crybaby, are you a daddy's boy? You go out and have a quarrel and still call daddy."

Liu Rui was so angry that he stopped crying and stood up to push Ye Chenjing.

Ye Chenjing has been working since he was a child, and he is much stronger than Liu Rui, so the two of them started fighting.

Lin Wenxuan hurriedly stopped him, because he was the one who caused the trouble, and besides, the teacher would scold him if he fought in the private school.

The other members of the Ye family also went over to pull the two apart. Lin Wenxuan advised, “If you like this book bag, you can ask your mother to make one for you.”

Liu Rui said angrily: "My mother has never seen it, she won't do it."

Lin Wenxuan advised kindly: "If you want, you can buy one with money. Just talk to Ye Chenjing."

Liu Rui also knew that this was not his home and no one would give in to him. He could only put away his temper and said to Ye Qilang: "Can you ask your mother to make one for me? I will pay for it and give you the money now."

Ye Chenjing came to the private school the next day, still remembering his family's instructions to get along well with his classmates. He softened his voice and said, "I'll go back and ask, but I only have this kind of fabric at home, do you want it?"

"What I want is much better looking than a bookcase." Liu Rui nodded in agreement.

Other people in the school also liked this school bag, and those who came from well-off families all wanted one.

In the evening, Ye Chenjing went back and told Zhou about this matter, "Mom, I have five classmates who want this school bag. They all want to buy it."

Ye Qing knew that book bags were easy to imitate, and these people were unwilling to make them themselves because they came from well-off families.

Ye Qing redesigned the school bag. The school bag was divided into two parts, so things could be put in them separately. Then he made two buttons so that the things in the school bag would not fall out.

Zhou and Li lit oil lamps and worked quickly. They worked until midnight and only finished five.

Ye Chenjing looked at the newly designed school bag, which was much better than the one he used, and was a little reluctant to give it to Liu Rui.
