The little ancestor of the family

Chapter 53 Setting a Trap

When the children returned home, Ye Xinran had already prepared dinner.

They held a woven wreath in their hands and handed it to Ye Xinran: "Aunt, this wreath is for you to wear."

Ye Xinran took it and saw that the wreath was made of willow branches and was filled with dandelion flowers.

"Thank you." She was happy.

"But this flower is not as beautiful as my aunt's." Chang'an sighed, "In the future, I will make a more beautiful wreath for my aunt."

"You are the best at coaxing people." Ye Xinran couldn't help but pinch Chang'an's increasingly rosy face.

During dinner, Ye Xinran was always distracted. Even when Changan called her, it took her two calls before she responded.

"Aunt, what's wrong with you? Is there something that makes you unhappy?"

Changan asked.

"Oh, nothing."

Ye Xinran smiled and calmed down.

"Aunt, did something happen during the day that made you worried?"

Changsheng looked at Ye Xinran's face and asked tentatively.

Ye Xinran didn't want to tell the children what happened during the day, but considering that the Ye family would not give up so easily,

It is always better to be prepared early, so he said: "The Ye family may come to cause trouble in the next few days. I was wondering, how can I drive them away?"

"Aunt, did your family beat you again?" Changping stood up excitedly, holding the table.

Changan also grabbed Ye Xinran's hand and examined it carefully.

"No, no!" Ye Xinran comforted them.

"It's just that I ran into them again on the road today. They saw me go to the Wei residence and wanted to use me to curry favor with Dean Wei, but I didn't want to pay attention to them."

Not only did I not want to pay any attention to them, I even wanted to beat them up to vent my anger.

"Just ignore them, auntie, don't be afraid, we will protect you." Changsheng said.

"You don't have to worry too much. I'm just reminding you that if someone comes over there, just stay in the house and don't come out."

"That won't do! Aunt, I have a way to keep them out. Just don't feel that it offends your family." Changping looked confident.

"What can you do?"

"Changping is the best at making mechanisms and traps!" Changsheng said.

Chang An also clenched his fist and said excitedly: "My second brother and second uncle learned it, it's amazing."

"Is it complicated? Is it difficult?" Ye Xinran became interested immediately after hearing it.

"It's not difficult at all!" Changping said confidently.

Ye Xinran: "Okay, then we will set a trap. If they dare to come, we will severely offend them."

"Yes!" The three children nodded quickly, their eyes sparkling.

After dinner, several people started to work.

The three children are the main force, and it can be seen that this is not the first time they have done such a thing.

Ye Xinran couldn't think of any time when they had used traps before. After all, she had never seen them do this since she came to the village.

"You guys bury this rope, I'm going to fetch two buckets of manure." Changping said to his younger brother and older brother.

"Still doing that? That's too disgusting!" Changsheng objected.

Chang Ping clenched her fists and said, "Who made them bully Auntie in the past? The manure is light. If I have the chance, I want to use molten iron to turn those who bullied Auntie into slag."

Ye Xinran was tying a hemp rope in the house.

I was shocked when I heard what the three people said.

She always thought Changping was a well-behaved child, but she didn't expect him to be so cruel.

The arrangements for the evening were not completed, so the three children got up before daybreak the next morning and continued to do what they had not finished before.

Ye Xinran prepared breakfast and called the three children to eat.

Changping dragged Ye Xinran to the front yard

"Aunt, do you see this? You can't step on this. And here, you have to walk around it."

They marked the locations of several mechanisms and asked Ye Xinran to remember them.

He took her around the yard several times, and after making sure everything was correct, he went to the backyard with her to eat.

"Aunt, remember, as long as you don't touch those places, there will be no problem."

Changping said.

"Okay, I'll remember it!" Ye Xinran nodded.

She only participated in a small part of this trap project, and she was really curious about its specific power.

After breakfast, Ye Xinran took out the badger oil that she had asked for from Li Zheng and put it in the pot to simmer slowly.

This thing is very effective in treating frostbite, and the preparation method is also simple. Just boil it and then let it cool and store it.

While she was boiling oil, she was waiting for the Ye family to come.

Unexpectedly, the Ye family did not come, but the village head did.

She was knocking on the door outside, and while knocking, she shouted, "Is Niece Ye home? Why is the door locked in the broad daylight?"

"Changsheng, go see what the village chief wants?"

The oil in the pot was not yet cooked, and Ye Xinran couldn't leave it for the time being, so she had to tell Changsheng to do it.

Changsheng walked to the door and asked through it, "Grandpa Lizheng, what can I do for you?"

"I have something to discuss with your aunt."

"No, my aunt is busy now and can't come out to see you." Changsheng replied.

"It's okay if you don't come out. Then open the door and I'll go in to find her."

"You can't come in either!"

The head of the village said, "Hey, kid, why are you so stubborn today? I really have something to talk to your aunt about! Don't you want to study anymore?"

"Grandpa Lizheng, let's put the study aside for now. We have to deal with the bad guys first, and then we can open the door."

"Bad guy? Where did the bad guy come from?"

The village chief, Erzhang Heshang, was puzzled and asked, "Are you confused?"

"Grandpa Lizheng, I didn't lie to you. I didn't let you in because it's for your own good!"

As soon as Changsheng finished speaking, a carriage came galloping from the entrance of the village.

The carriage stopped on the road for a while, as if asking for directions, and then headed straight towards the Xiao family.

As soon as the carriage stopped in front of the door, the driver jumped off the carriage, pointed at the head of the village and asked, "Is this Xiao Huaian's house?"

"Yes! Who are you?" The head of the village was a little puzzled. When did Xiao Huaian have such wealthy friends?

The driver got a positive answer and ignored the headman. Instead, he immediately returned to the carriage and whispered to the curtain: "Master, this is the house."

A sharp voice came from the car: "Go knock on the door and tell that unfilial daughter that her parents are here to see her. Why don't you come out to greet them?"

"Yes!"

The driver pushed the head of the village aside, knocked on the gate with his whip, and shouted, "Miss Ye, Master and Madam Ye are here to see you. Please go out and greet them."

After a few calls, there was no response in the yard.

The driver then looked at the village head and asked, "Is there no one in this yard?"

The head of the village sneered: "I didn't go in, how would I know if there was anyone there? Since no one answered, they are not at home!"
