The whole family traveled through ancient times with their house

He even joked with his father at that time, saying that it was their fate.

It’s just that the father and son were getting along just fine at home, but when he met Uncle Ye, his father didn’t dare to say anything.

Just when Dong Shi Ning was about to lose his temper, he heard his own father speaking to Ye Zhanyang.

"Captain Ye, come on, walk with me to the front."

"Yes, Lord Chihu."

Two tall and straight men like pine trees walked side by side on the snow-covered dirt road.

At first, neither of them spoke. All they could hear was the sound of boots stepping on the snow, which could be heard from far away.

Captain Dong didn't know how to start, and Ye Zhanyang didn't know what to say. The two of them walked more than ten feet away without realizing it, making Dong Shi Ning, who had been watching them from behind, so anxious that he wanted to speak up himself.

Captain Dong seemed to have made up his mind and spoke: "Old Ye, we are almost a family, so don't be so reserved." In fact, he was reserved himself and spoke without thinking.

Ye Zhanyang looked at the captain with some confusion, "What do you mean by family?" He couldn't figure it out.

After Captain Dong said the beginning, the rest became much easier.

"Old Ye, as the saying goes, if a daughter is in one family, hundreds of families will want her. Take a look at my Dalang. How about I make him your son-in-law?"

Ye Zhanyang: I’m a little confused.

He had just thought about several things, but he didn't expect that Captain Dong came to him to propose a marriage for his eldest son.

"This~"

"Well, think about it carefully. I'm a capable father-in-law, and my wife isn't a pushover. And that brat of mine, the girl he likes will be good to yours."

Ye Zhanyang: "This happened too suddenly, please allow me to think about it."

"Well. Take your time to think about it. We'll go back first. We'll come back in a couple of days to hear your answer."

After Captain Dong finished speaking, he took his son and drove the snow sled back.

Ye Zhanyang was left standing in the snow, disheveled in the wind.

His daughter's marriage has always been a heavy stone weighing on his heart.

You know, not only they are worried about their daughter's marriage, but even the old father and mother in the family are worried about Xin'er's marriage.

Ye Zhanyang looked at the snow sled going away and the young man next to Captain Dong who kept looking back.

Suddenly, there was a moment when Ye Zhanyang's heart became clear.

He turned around and discussed with his two younger brothers, "I'm going home later to talk to my father, mother, and your sister-in-law."

Captain Dong didn't deliberately lower his voice when he spoke just now, so Ye Zhanpeng and Ye Zhanying also heard it.

They also took their niece's lifelong event seriously and urged their eldest brother to go back quickly. Before his departure, they did not forget to express their opinions.

"Brother, that kid from the Dong family looks okay."

"Yeah, at least he's more pleasing to the eye than that kid from the Lu family. That kid is like a weakling."

Ye Zhanyang shook his head, "How can a martial artist be the same as a scholar?"

After Ye Zhanyang finished speaking, he led his mount onto the dirt road.

Looking around, whether far or near, it was all white. Even the snow on the dirt road was knee-deep.

Ye Zhanpeng was a little worried about his eldest brother going alone, so he asked his third brother to go back with his eldest brother so that he could take care of him on the way.

Ye Zhanying meant the same thing. He saw a snow pit in front of him that was blown out by the north wind. If someone stepped into it without paying attention, it might be a disaster.

Ye Zhanyang knew that his two younger brothers were worried, so he did not refuse and agreed to go home with his third brother.

But even riding a horse was not fast. It usually took them less than an hour to walk, but today it took them more than two hours.

Fortunately, they finally got home before sunset.

Looking at his two sons covered in snow, General Ye thought something big had happened.

However, when he heard from his eldest son that it was Captain Dong who took his eldest son to the Hundred Households Office to talk to him about the marriage, he was still stunned for a moment.

When it comes to her daughter's marriage, Sister Ye is the quickest to react. "Given our family's current situation, Dalang from the Dong family is the best candidate for a son-in-law."

Mrs. Ye didn't say that after the Ye family fell into trouble, she didn't dare to think about her daughter's marriage.

Given the current situation of the Ye family, it was really difficult to find a marriage that was well-matched. Furthermore, the Ye family case hadn't been truly resolved, so families who were timid or had ulterior motives wouldn't dare marry into their family.

To put it in a practical way, there was no one in the entire Thirteen Banners who could find a man of the same age as their daughter.

In fact, there was one, but Mrs. Ye didn’t see it.

It’s not Mrs. Ye’s fault that she didn’t think of that person. The landlord’s silly son is still very honest and would not go near the Ye family for no reason.

When Jiang Yan saw that Big Brother Ye and Third Brother Ye had returned, she took the initiative to suggest adding two dishes to dinner.

The children were very happy to hear this. Jiulang even said directly, "My dad likes to eat steamed buns with meat the most."

Ye Zhanying: He used to like eating steamed buns with meat. But now, given the situation at home, he still likes steamed buns with meat, even steamed buns made of three-grain flour with pickles, and he can still eat them with relish.

Sister-in-law Ye was like a worm in her husband's stomach. She pulled her youngest son over and said to Jiang Yan, "Sister, your meat sauce is the most delicious. Can you teach me later?"

"Okay, this meat sauce is pretty easy to make."

"Girls say it's easy, but what I make isn't as delicious as what girls make."

Jiang Yan could imagine that before the Ye family fell into trouble, none of these ladies who were trained by wealthy families had ever worked as a cook.

Nowadays, being able to cook a meal is already worthy of praise. As for whether it tastes good or not, as long as you can eat your fill, what's the point of a bicycle?

However, the women of the Ye family all asked her for cooking lessons, and she was not stingy at all in teaching them everything she knew.

For dinner today, the meat sauce made by Mrs. Ye was well received by the whole family.

Jiulang said, "My mother's cooking skills are catching up with my aunt's." This made Sister Ye blush. Her cooking skills were far behind her younger siblings. But she was still very happy that her son praised her.

After dinner, Old Mrs. Ye and Sister-in-law Ye went to the east room. They wanted to hear Jiang Yan's opinion.

Jiang Yan didn't expect that the Ye family really treated her as a member of the family and would talk to her about everything, big or small.

Jiang Yan was very optimistic about Dong Shining. They say a heroic father makes a heroic son. Dong Shining's future achievements in the military will be higher than his father's.

Although it annoyed her that Captain Dong always coveted her things, she couldn't deny that Captain Dong was a good person.

In particular, he is dedicated to his officers and soldiers and is definitely one of the best in this border city.

After listening to Jiang Yan's pertinent advice, the Ye family unanimously decided to agree to this marriage.
