Starting from a thatched cottage, the farmer embarked on the road to wealth through imperial examina
Chapter 13: Diverting trouble to the east
Seeing that Ye Changyan was not as easy to fool as the other people in the third room, Old Madam Guo winked at her eldest son.
"Sanlang, it doesn't matter if you can't find the document for now. You can look for it slowly later. Maybe you will find it when you move things later!"
"Uncle is right. Don't be in a hurry. Take your time to look for it."
Seeing Ye Changyan's sincere expression, everyone turned around and listened to what Ye Changyan continued to say.
"It's just that uncle, second uncle, my parents know that it's not easy for our family. Now my eldest brother and second brother are looking for marriage, and there are only so many houses in our family. If we move back, the west wing and the study will not be vacant. We can't let the girls from the county town marry in. After we have children, we can't let the whole family squeeze into one room."
When everyone in the old house heard Ye Changyan's tactful refusal, they felt something was wrong, and then the eldest son of the Ye family, Ye Xiaowen, spoke hurriedly.
"Sanlang, look at what you said. Your elder brother and second brother haven't found a marriage yet. You should move back first. When your elder brother and second brother find a marriage, we can find a solution."
"Isn't this a coincidence?"
Ye Changyan's sudden words made everyone present look at him with confusion.
"Last night when I was looking for documents, I heard Wu Lang, who was helping me, say that my eldest aunt wanted to get married to us."
Ye Xiaolian's family was overjoyed after hearing what Ye Changyan said. Ye Xiaolian didn't expect that Ye Changyan would bring up this matter on his own initiative. Cousin Sun Yiming looked at Erniu not far behind Ye Changyan shyly, while cousin Sun Yitong turned away her blushing face, and uncle Sun Youde showed a slightly silly smile.
"Sanlang, I know you are a good and sensible child!"
At this time, Ye Xiaolian was like the mother-in-law who liked her son-in-law more and more.
But the old lady Guo beside her was a little confused. How could Sanlang agree to the marriage so readily? Then she spoke.
"You can't write two Ye characters with this stroke. Your aunt is naturally on the side of our Ye family. If you are willing, Sanlang, that would be great."
Hearing the old lady's words, Ye Changyan chuckled.
"Haha, Grandma, look at what you said. It doesn't matter whether I am willing or not. What is important is that my elder brother and elder sister are willing. Of course, my elder uncle and aunt also need to nod their heads in agreement. Only then can this good thing be considered a success!"
Everyone began to sense something was wrong in the words, but they did not react for a moment, so Ye Xiaowen spoke.
"Sanlang, look at what you said. It's not your elder brother and elder sister's turn to be willing. Your aunt and I are naturally willing to do it."
"Then it's done. If my cousin can get married before the New Year, maybe my eldest brother will have a son when he comes of age next year. I think we should just get married at the same time with my cousin. That would be a double blessing. Congratulations to my eldest uncle, my eldest aunt, my eldest aunt, and my eldest uncle!"
As he spoke, Ye Changyan bowed towards the four people respectively, with an expression of sincere congratulations, but it scared everyone present who reacted.
"Wait, Saburo, are you mistaken?"
Ye Xiaolian, what she said was wrong. How could Ye Changyan decide the marriage of her children with just a few words? She had never thought of marrying her precious daughter to that fool of Dalang, and how could her precious son marry that plain-looking big-footed girl of Da Niu?
"Look at how happy my eldest aunt is. She doesn't want to believe such a good thing. My eldest uncle is worried about finding a wife for my eldest brother, and my eldest aunt wants to strengthen the relationship with our Ye family. My grandmother also said that you can't write two Ye characters with one stroke. My eldest aunt will always support our Ye family. My eldest brother and cousin, my cousin and eldest sister, are all of similar age and appearance. This is also a close relationship between aunts and cousins. Isn't it a match made in heaven, a beautiful story of strengthening the relationship between relatives?"
"Hehe..." Erniu and Wulang in the corner couldn't help laughing, and Lian on the side was also trying hard to hold back her smile, with a distorted facial expression. Ye Xiaozheng saw that his eldest sister's family was staring at his family in amazement, with awkwardness and unnatural looks on their faces, and he turned his head away unconsciously.
Ye Changyan's words instantly caused an uproar among everyone in the old house and his aunt's family.
The old lady now understood that she had really underestimated Sanlang. This child had fooled the whole family with just a few words.
What Ye Xiaolian's family wanted was completely different from what Ye Changyan said, and they immediately became angry and embarrassed.
The eldest wife was completely unprepared for what Ye Changyan said and was stunned for a moment.
After the second wife's family reacted, Ye Xiaowu and Liu's minds started to buzz. How could all the good things fall upon the first wife's family?
My eldest sister's family has been running a grocery store in the county for some years. Whether it is the betrothal gift for her son to marry a wife or the dowry for her daughter, it must be quite generous.
Ye Xiaowu and Liu soon gathered together and started to mutter. It was fine to give the girl to Sun Yiming. Who told them that they didn't have a daughter? But they had a son. Erlang was not young anymore. Aren't Erlang and Sun Yitong of similar age? If Erlang married Sun Yitong, wouldn't the generous dowry prepared by the eldest sister go into their pockets?
The couple quietly pulled Erlang aside to discuss it, and then Ye Xiaowu spoke.
"Sanlang is right. This is truly a match made in heaven, a perfect match!"
The old lady and Ye Xiaolian's family were very confused when they heard Ye Xiaowu's sarcastic words. The eldest family, who finally reacted, were a little proud, but they heard Ye Xiaowu continue.
"Sanlang, your uncle has been very kind to you in the past. Your brother is already grown up. Please help your brother talk to your aunt and ask her to marry your cousin to your brother. Your uncle will give you a generous matchmaking gift!"
"Second brother! What are you talking about!"
"Second brother, what are you meddling in!"
"Second brother, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Almost in unison, Old Madam Guo, Ye Xiaolian and Ye Xiaowen all shouted at Ye Xiaowu, who had a reckless look on his face.
Immediately, the old lady, the first wife and Ye Xiaolian started quarreling with the unruly second wife. For a while, neither of them gave in. When the words became heated, they no longer cared about so many things and their faces gradually became red.
Once people are controlled by their emotions, they say many things without thinking, and then naturally expose each other's shortcomings.
"Who was the one who instigated the separation of the third brother's family?"
"Your wife has also been fanning the flames in your mother's ears!"
"I did say that I wanted to give the third son away, but who said that we only wanted to give him five acres of land?"
"But I also said I would give them money to burn the bottom of the pot, but you were unwilling to pay that little money at that time!"
"Big sister, don't be too ambitious. My two nephews have been married to many families. Don't put your eyes on the sky. It's hard to find a good marriage for your nephew and niece even if you search with a lantern!"
"Fuck your motherfucker!"
"Mom, look at your precious daughter, the apple of your eye!"
"Shut up, everyone!"
"Mom, you must not be too partial. The Sun family will not smash pots and banners for you in the future!"
"Grandma, please persuade my aunt to marry my cousin to me!"
"Second brother, marriage is a big deal, and there must be order of seniority! It won't be your Erlang's turn anyway!"
……
The scene was in chaos for a while. Ye Changyan and his brother and sister had already retreated to the corner to watch the group of people fighting. However, Ye Xiaozheng and his wife were dumbfounded.
"Oh no! Grandma fainted!"
