Old man Ye went outside to get some water to wash his hands and face. When he heard the noise coming from the kitchen, his grinning mouth remained on his face the whole time!

Overjoyed.

He knew that his love for this girl was not in vain!

Old Man Ye washed his hands and face, took Ping An's hand, and said, "My dear grandson, come on, let's go. Grandpa will take you to the vegetable garden outside to pick some green onions. Dinner will be a while before dinner."

Ping'an nodded and followed Old Man Ye out obediently.

Old man Ye has done a lot of work over the years, and his back is a little hunched, but he is only in his fifties. Ye Nanyue felt a little sad when she saw him.

Then, she saw the hunchbacked and skinny old man Ye secretly grabbed a handful of malt sugar, thought for a while, put a few back, stuffed them in his pocket, and took Ping An out.

Mrs. Hu and her two daughters-in-law were picking greens in the vegetable garden in the backyard. When they heard Old Man Ye's movements, they shouted, "Old man, what are you doing out here? There are onions in the yard. Come back here, hey——"

The more Mrs. Hu shouted, the faster Old Man Ye walked.

The honest elder brother Ye was unusually clever this time: "Mom, Dad must have gone out to show off. Don't worry about him, he will be back soon."

Mrs. Hu thought about it and understood. She scolded him angrily, "Old man, you are really restless."

Not to mention Old Man Ye, Mrs. Hu also wanted to go out and show off.

But she was very sensitive about her reputation and was afraid that the shameless people in the neighborhood would come to her house and ask for meat, which would be a disadvantage for her.

Old Man Ye wanted to go out, and she didn't stop him.

then……

Several people living near the Ye family in the village saw Old Man Ye walking around with the delicate little Ping'an, who was wearing new cotton and silk clothes.

"Uncle Ye, are you off work?" A strong man passing by greeted Old Man Ye.

"Yeah, that's right. How do you know my daughter bought me flour and several hundred kilograms of grain?" Old Man Ye greeted with a smile.

A strong man passing by: "..." Should he know?

Old Man Ye didn't wait for him to answer and continued walking with Ping An.

Then, a family that passed by and had a bad relationship with the Ye family was Old Man Ye’s cousin.

Usually, they would pretend not to see each other when they passed by the door. Old Man Ye deliberately stood at the gate of the yard, looked at the greedy children, and stuffed a piece of malt candy into Ping An's mouth.

Old Man Ye turned to his cousin and said, "Hey, Fourth Brother, are you eating? The children are all skinny from hunger."

The children watched Old Man Ye stuff malt sugar into Ping'an's mouth, and their mouths watered with greed.

Old Man Ye's fourth cousin's face darkened: "Oh, your cheap daughter knows that the grain has been collected and she comes to ask you for money?"

Old Man Ye was often laughed at by his fourth cousin and his wife, but he was not angry at all. Instead, he laughed: "How did you know that Nan Yan gave me a gold hairpin? Yes, she also bought cloth to make two new clothes for the empty house."

Old Man Ye’s fourth cousin: “…”

Old Man Ye glanced at the dishless food in his fourth cousin's bowl and said, "Farmers should eat these. Nan Yan is not a good housekeeper. She bought several pounds of fat meat, several pounds of fat meat, and even a few corn bones."

"My family can only eat white flour buns and meat dishes tonight..."

Old man Ye’s fourth cousin: “…” His fist hardened.

Old Man Ye smiled and said, "Then I'll go first."

Old Man Ye's fourth cousin looked at his back and spat, "What a show-off! Who would believe that his daughter is that capable?"

That's what he said, but the two families lived close to each other, and when he smelled the aroma of meat coming from the Ye family, he found the coarse grain and black flour steamed bread in his hand hard to swallow.

Pull your throat!

Old Man Ye continued walking.

Brag to everyone you meet.

"Yes, Nan Yan also bought brown sugar for her mother."

"Her two sisters-in-law also have them."

"And the cakes and pastries that are so expensive for city folk."

"My third child also has books, hehe..."

After a walk around, all the ten or so households living nearby knew about it.

Old Man Ye also distributed the handfuls of candy in his hand to the children from several families with whom he had good relations.

Then, I went back satisfied.

When he got back, the food was already on the table and everyone was waiting for him.

The family gathered together, and Mrs. Hu said, "Eat! These are all made by Nanyan and brought by Nanyan. There's plenty to eat today, so eat as much as you want!"

The Ye family has many people, and the whole family is very lively and everyone eats heartily.

No one spoke.

It's been a long time since I've eaten meat, let alone so much meat...

The whole family ate with their mouths full of oil, feeling extremely satisfied.

In the end, only half a bowl of steamed buns and a plate of sauerkraut and minced meat were left.

After finishing his meal, Old Man Ye was reluctant to wipe his mouth, deliberately leaving a mouthful of oil, and went out to show off...

Mrs. Hu couldn't hold back any longer. Her two daughters-in-law noticed that after eating their fill, they felt less resentful and asked Mrs. Hu to leave while they cleaned up the mess.

Ye Nanyue didn't rush to help, and her two sisters-in-law were used to it.

Ye Nanyue went to the yard, took out a few hairbands from her small bag, and gave three to each of her two nieces.

The eldest niece is twelve years old and is the eldest daughter of my eldest brother. The youngest niece is the second daughter of my second brother and is only eight years old.

The two girls took the red hairbands and happily went out to show off to their sisters.

Only the eldest brother Ye and the second brother Ye were packing up the food, occasionally looking at the little sister and smiling happily.

Ye Jingming was not helping in the evening as he was preparing to review his lessons.

After waiting for a long time, he was a little surprised that Ye Nanyue didn't make any move on him.

It was just a pair of eyes that kept looking towards Ye Nanyue.

It seemed as if he was waiting for Ye Nanyue to take action.

Ye Nanyan ignored her and played with her nephews for a while. When Old Man Ye and Mrs. Hu came back, she said to them, "Dad, Mom, everyone, stop what you are doing. I have something to say."

As soon as she finished speaking, the other members of the Ye family looked at her.

The expressions of the two sisters-in-law, the eldest niece and Ye Jingming all changed.

Sure enough, something important is coming.

She must be asking for something again.

Seeing everyone on guard, Ye Nanyue sighed, "I want to talk to you about growing crops after the autumn harvest."

Ye Jingming was stunned and looked at Ye Nanyue in surprise.

Old Man Ye's expression also became serious. He called everyone together and asked a few of the younger ones to close the yard door.

The whole family sat together in the yard, and then Old Man Ye asked Ye Nanyan, "Nanyan, do you know anything about growing crops?"

Ye Nanyan nodded and said to Old Man Ye, "Dad, you and your brothers and sisters-in-law have eaten the potatoes I fried today. What do you think?"

Old Man Ye thought for a moment and nodded: "Not bad. It tastes good and it fills you up."

Farmers naturally attach great importance to food.

The expressions of Big Brother Ye and Second Brother Ye also became a little more serious.

Ye Nanyan nodded. "I accidentally dug up these potatoes in the back mountain. I've tried them and looked through some books. I want Dad and my brothers to plant 80% of them in the back mountain and 20% in the fields."

When Ye Nanyue said this, the whole family looked at her in surprise.

Ye Nanyue... is lazy and doesn't know the difference between crops. Is she teaching everyone how to grow crops now?
