.Chapter 1888
?1888 The daily life of a family
Ye Chu’s learning attitude was extremely serious. When she said she wanted to learn Chinese, she started to learn Chinese. She bought a thick Chinese dictionary. She only knew simple Chinese and had a very poor foundation. Ye tingjun ordered a set of elementary teaching materials for her to learn slowly. At night, he would especially take time out to tutor her.
In her spare time, she would follow Tong Hua to the production team to play. Occasionally, she would accompany ye tingjun to his classmates ‘reunions and friends’ reunions. Her schedule was very full. Ye Chu even became familiar with the socialites from the last time and created a group on the internet. In the group, there were people who especially ridiculed ye Yifan. Anyway, ye Yifan’s crime of two-timing could not be washed away.
Xiaoju said,”if you want to be gregarious, you must say gregarious words.” Ye Chu was too embarrassed to say third fool’s words, but third fool would always snatch her phone away and look at the chat records, secretly remembering the few who scolded the most fiercely.
This was too much.
After breaking up, you can’t play happily or criticize your ex, right?
“If they’re all slandering you, it means that there’s really a small problem with you.”
“Second sister-in-law, you’ve betrayed us so quickly?”
“You and I are not from the same country.”
“Do you still want me to put in a few good words for you in front of grandma?”
“Second brother said that there’s no need for that. I don’t need to deal with your grandmother, and we won’t be living together in the future. So what if I’ve offended her? there’s no need for me to please her either. I think that makes sense.”
Ye Yifan was speechless.
His two older brothers both pampered their wives to no end. He really despised them.
“But he’s our grandma after all. It’s not good if you don’t give him any face, right?”
“Second brother has said that I’m so likable. If they don’t like me, it’s their problem. It’s not my fault. You don’t need to say a few good words for me.”
Ye Yifan was speechless.
He was speechless. What should he do?
The two jokers could not convince each other. Tong Hua felt that their silly and sweet Alliance was about to collapse internally. He hurriedly formed a group to have fun, and very quickly, he brought ye Chu to replace ye tingjun’s position and brought her to visit all the famous attractions in city A.
The few of them could play together very quickly again. They were Birds of a Feather. Ye Chu even complained to Shen qianshu that Tong Hua’s flirting skills were really too good. He went to the amusement park to flirt with the little girls and made them blush and call him brother. He was really amazing.
Shen qianshu said,”then … You don’t have to tell me.”
It was very embarrassing!
He felt that he was about to raise a son who was focused on romance. What should he do?
In such a lively atmosphere, it was soon New Year’s Eve. Ye tingjun really managed to persuade ye Ling and his family to spend New Year’s Eve at the ye family’s mansion. Ye Ling had not spent New Year’s Eve at the mansion for many years. To him, the only blood ties he had in the ye family were ye Yifan and ye tingjun. It was a rare reunion this year, and ye tingjun had also thought that it would be a good thing to find the person he liked. He did not know how Shen qianshu had convinced him. Hearing that ye Ling had agreed to spend New Year’s Eve together, ye tingjun and ye Yifan were both happy.
For various reasons, the three brothers had not gathered together to properly celebrate New Year’s Eve for many years. Ye tingjun and ye Yifan were both brought up by the ye old lady, and they almost spent the new year at the mansion. Ye Ling was not in a good mood during those years, so he was mostly in Paris. Usually, the two brothers would spend the new year at the mansion before going to Paris to accompany ye Ling.
Or perhaps, she could spend the new year with ye Ling in Paris first. She definitely had to return to the mansion on New Year’s Eve.
The ye family had a lot of traditions, and there were also many things to do on New Years Eve. They had already started preparing to pay respects to their ancestors early in the morning. The ye family’s ancestral hall was built behind the big mansion. It was also Shen qianshu’s first time coming to the ye family’s ancestral hall. Looking around, there were rows of memorial tablets, and they provided incense all year round. The incense smell was very strong. Ye Lings mother was not in the ancestral hall. Shen qianshu thought that Aventura would not mind.
Ye Lings willingness to come here meant that he had already let go of the things that happened in the past. His illness had also been let go. These messy grudges could not be said to be anyone’s fault. Everyone had all kinds of reasons that they had no choice but to have. They all had different unspeakable secrets. Gradually, it became a mess. It was best to cut it all off in one stroke and end all of it.
After paying respects to the ancestors, they had to sweep the grave again. The cemetery was a little far away, and the whole family had to sweep the grave. Although they had let go of some things, ye Ling would not sweep the old master’s grave for him and directly ignored him. He did not even want to see the old master and just sat in the car. If he did not go, Shen qianshu would not go either. She threw little Tong Hua to ye tingjun and asked him to bring Tong Hua to light incense. That was all.
Ye Chu was not considered a member of the ye family, so he did not sit in the other car. He got down when he was bored. He saw Shen qianshu lowering her head and smiling at ye Ling. Ye Lings expression did not look good. He was cold and did not have any signs of life at all. It was very close to the cemetery. However, Shen qianshu was not afraid of being hurt by him at all. She still smiled very brightly. When she was close to him, she heard ye Ling say two words. ” Boring. ”
“What boring? you’re the most boring one.” Shen qianshu was a Chatterbox by nature. She buzzed beside his ear tirelessly. ” Let’s go, let’s go. Look at how unsociable you are. You’re the only one who goes to work and comes home to scold Tong Hua every day. Life is too boring. If you follow me, we’ll get angry, do you know that? ”
Ye Chu looked at the cold ye Ling and turned her head away. She did not know if it was her imagination, but she seemed to have seen ye Ling roll his eyes. However, she thought that such a celestial person would not do such an inelegant action.
“Ye Chu, come, come, come …” Shen qianshu saw ye Chu and waved happily. There was no problem between the two of them. Ye Chu also walked over with light steps. However, once she got close, she felt that ye Ling’s gaze was not kind, and she became suspicious again.
Shen qianshu seemed to have felt it too. She touched ye Ling’s ear and said,”Aiya, such a conservative parent. Don’t scare the young lady.”
The little girl ye Chu revealed a very hesitant smile. What had she done wrong?
Ye Ling and ye tingjun looked similar, and their facial features were also similar. When they stood together, it was easy to distinguish them. She was not afraid of ye tingjun at all, but she was inexplicably afraid of ye Ling. She did not even dare to get too close to him. She tried her best to stand on Shen qianshu’s right side and let Shen qianshu block ye Ling’s view.
It was like a mouse seeing a cat.
“Don’t be afraid of him. He looks like second uncle. You’re not afraid of second uncle, right?”
“It’s different. ” Ye Chu lowered his head and said in a low voice.
Shen qianshu said,”we were just discussing where we should go to stay up for the new year. It’s too boring to stay up at the mansion. Let’s go to the top of the mountain. Tong Hua and I have prepared tents. Let’s set up our tents to stay up for the new year and watch the sunrise. How about that?”
“Sure, sure …” It sounded fun. Of course, as a French person, she didn’t pay much attention to New Year’s Eve. After the waiter explained it to her, she knew that it was the most important reunion Festival in the country. Setting up a tent to stay up for the new year sounded very fun.
Shen qianshu was an interesting person. No matter how boring a person was, she could bring them along. Her life was colorful.”We can even set up a tent and have a barbecue. I have already asked people to prepare the ingredients. They have already sent them up the mountain. Anyway, this meal will be at the ye family mansion. Everyone will not be able to eat their fill.”
With ye Bao’s family and ye Ling around, they definitely wouldn’t be full.
Ye Ling was silent for a moment and interrupted her excitement.”Fire is forbidden in the forest.”
Shen qianshu thought to herself, old-fashioned!
“This is a private mountain, not the country ‘s. Doesn’t the ye family have shares too? there’s no need for someone to manage the barbecue in their own house. Why do you have to care so much? I’ve already asked people to clear out the open space and clean up all the withered grass and leaves. Just in case, I’ve already informed the firefighters and prepared the gardening truck. Are you not afraid of the fire?”
Ye Ling was speechless.
You’re already so well prepared, why are you still asking me?
Shen qianshu and ye Chu high-fived each other.”Look, second uncle will definitely agree. Of course, Yifan and Tong Hua will not object to it. You are the only one in the whole family who objects. The majority rules. Your objection is invalid. Remember to be a laborer. I have not moved the materials up the mountain yet.”
They couldn’t drive up to the top of the mountain directly. They could only walk up. It took more than half an hour to walk up. It was a very steep mountain. It also took half an hour to climb up the middle of the mountain from the ye family. Naturally, they had to find men to do the hard work. They couldn’t let the girls who were as beautiful as flowers do it.
Ye Ling did not say anything, and it was considered a silent agreement. Shen qianshu knew that he would agree. This show looked very fun, and everything was ready.
When they returned from the tomb-sweeping, it was a mighty scene again. Ye Bao even complained that ye Ling came to sweep the tomb and refused to come to the cemetery. He was only here to be qianshu and Tong Hua’s driver. He did not even treat himself as a member of the ye family. What reunion dinner was there to have?
Tong Hua stretched out his leg and tripped him on purpose. He almost fell. Tong Hua apologized without any sincerity.”I’m sorry, second uncle. I didn’t mean it.”
He paused for a moment.”Our family has always sent a representative. You see, my daddy sent me here as a representative, didn’t he?”
When they returned from the tomb-sweeping, they started to prepare dinner. It was already afternoon. The ye family mansion had not been so lively in a long time. Even ye Feifei had returned. Of course, the ye family and the Lu family had completely fallen out. Ye Feifei came back alone without her husband and child. She and ye Baozi had not changed their habit of eating sh * t. Now that they could not cause any trouble, they only knew how to say a few superficial words.
Shen qianshu could not find anything to pick on, so she started to pick on ye Chu. Ye Feifei deliberately praised the socialites and mocked ye Chu for being unpresentable. However, she was very enthusiastic when she said it. The old lady felt very helpless because ye Chu was eating an Apple while listening very enthusiastically. She did not understand at all!
She didn’t know if this girl really didn’t understand or was just pretending to be innocent.
Shen qianshu felt that she could laugh at this scene for a year. Ye Feifei was also very lucky.
Although they quarreled a little and each had their own thoughts, after ye tingjun gave out a large amount of red packets, they all became more obedient. The large amount of red packets was really a large amount of red packets. He took 20% of miss’s bonus for half a year and used it as the ye family’s education Fund. This meant that all the children and grandchildren of the ye family could enjoy this Education Fund. At least, it guaranteed that everyone could receive higher education and the opportunity to go abroad for further studies. This meant that they would not starve to death.
Ye Bao was greedy and insatiable. Miss’s annual bonus was a lot. Even if she took out 20% for half a year, it would already be very impressive. He had long lost his real power because of ye Ling. He enjoyed himself every day and had nothing to do. He was also controlled by his wife. He had the crooked idea of managing this fund.
Ye Feifei was also unwilling to let go of this bonus. The Lu family was not going to make it. If they did not get a divorce, she would have money to support herself in the future. The two of them were arguing until their faces were red.
Ye Yifan gasped in amazement.
It was high.
Originally, second uncle and aunt had formed an alliance against outsiders, so the three brothers were not afraid. However, there would always be some cold words that made them unhappy. This way, their alliance was disintegrated from the inside.
The last one was ye Bao. Ye Feifei and ye Yifan supervised the funds together.
They would monitor each other.
Ye Yifan was speechless.
Didn’t I say I was just a rice weeper?
As expected, this meal was not very happy. On New Year’s Eve, everyone suppressed their temper and did not flare up. Ye Ling did not say a single word throughout the entire meal and ate slowly as if it was a delicious dish. However, just by sitting there, he was a deterrent for the head of the family. If he didn’t speak, the rest of the people would also speak less. Ye Chu, who loved to eat, felt that the food didn’t taste good and secretly kicked ye tingjun under his feet.
The waiter sneakily kicked him back, and the two even started playing.
It was very childish.
The New Year’s Eve reunion dinner, which was almost silent, was finished without any disturbance. No one made any trouble. Dinner and desserts lasted for a full two hours. Ye Bao and the others left after dinner.
Shen qianshu also organized other programs. They went to the mountaintop for a barbecue and even invited the old lady. The old lady did not have the energy to argue with the young people. She went straight back to her room and ignored Shen qianshu.
Anyway, in her heart, Shen qianshu was definitely not the best candidate for the eldest daughter-in-law. However, she had no choice as she had a strong background.
Ye Ling and ye tingjun were the coolies. The charcoal and the barbecue ingredients were carried up the mountain. For convenience’s sake, Shen qianshu packed four huge bags. The two brothers carried one bag in each hand and carried it up the mountain with great difficulty.
Ye Yifan and Tong Hua were singing and dancing all the way, chasing each other. They were either behind or in front of them.
Ye Ling gritted his teeth.
Forget it, they were all ancestors.
Shen qianshu and ye Chu only took some sauces, fruits, and drinks. They were not heavy either. Ye tingjun said,”Yifan, didn’t you see the two sisters-in-law getting drinks? go over and help.”
Ye Yifan carried Tong Hua up.”I’m holding onto Tong Hua.”
Ye tingjun was speechless.
“You win!”
Tong Hua kicked him.”Do you have any shame?”
The tents had already been moved up, and there were three tents set up. Ye Chu nodded and confirmed that there were no mistakes.”Why are there only three tents?”
“The tents are very heavy, and only two of them carried it up. It’s enough for us to live in. Ye Ling and I will live in one, you and second uncle will live in another, and Yifan and Tong Hua will live in the other. Three tents are enough.”
Ye Chu was confused, but it was too late to stop her when ye tingjun realized what she was going to say.
Ye Chu asked,”why do I have to sleep in the same tent as second brother? we sleep separately.”
Shen qianshu was speechless.
Ye Yifan was speechless.
Tong Hua said,”er … Awkward!”
“Ha!”
Ye Ling’s “ha” was especially meaningful. It was almost the same as Shen qianshu and ye Yifan ‘s. They looked at ye tingjun with a “you’re really useless” expression. Ye tingjun felt that this scene had already refreshed the most awkward scene in his history.
Ye Chu was confused. She had never understood the ways of the world and the matters between men and women. However, when everyone looked at ye tingjun with a complicated expression, she felt that her ears were burning. She felt that she should not have said it so shamelessly. Did she embarrass the waiter?
The atmosphere was quite awkward. The little fairy, who had always been good at adjusting the atmosphere and chatting awkwardly, felt that her emotional intelligence was lacking. She didn’t know how to make up for it. Ye Chu ran away with a pile of materials.
The crowd was speechless.
Ye Yifan said,”second brother, you can’t do it. It’s been so long and you still haven’t gotten the treatment of sleeping together?”
Then, are you dating in platu? a high school romance where you kissed and held hands? can you be satisfied with that? Amazing.
“You shut up!”
Ye tingjun took an Apple and went to look for ye Chu. Ye Chu put down the materials and faced the wall alone to reflect. He really faced the wall and stood in front of a stone wall. He stood straight, and his back view showed some awkwardness and annoyance.
Ye tingjun walked over. Ye Chu turned around, and his eyes were red. Ye tingjun was shocked.”What’s wrong? ignore Yifan and sister-in-law. They’re just joking.”
Ye Chu lowered his head and didn’t say anything. Ye tingjun passed the Apple over.”Do you want an Apple?”
The Apple that he always loved could not pull back the sad little apple. Ye tingjun sighed. Just as he was about to say something, ye Chu snatched the Apple away.”I don’t mind what they say.”
Actually, there was nothing wrong with what they said.
She felt that she had been too careless and always spoke without thinking, embarrassing the second brother, so she was very upset. It was
“Then why?” He could be considered as someone who understood ye Chu better, but ye Chu was too innocent. Sometimes, he couldn’t understand her thoughts with his own thinking, so he had to communicate more.
Ye Chu played with the Little Apple and sat at the side. He started to eat the apple without any distractions. Ye tingjun had no choice but to sit down with her. When she was almost done with the Apple, ye Chu was finally willing to speak.
“Second brother, do I often make you feel embarrassed when I speak without thinking?”
Ye Chu did realize that she would make ye tingjun feel awkward sometimes, but sometimes, she did not understand. When she was in school, her classmates said that she was too direct sometimes and would offend people. When she went home and asked ye tingjun, ye tingjun said,”you don’t need to rely on them for a living, and you don’t need to develop a stable relationship with them. It doesn’t matter if you offend them or not.”
When a person reached a high level, they didn’t need to consider the problem of offending people. There were many people who wanted to curry favor with her. When she thought about it this way, she didn’t want to suffer. She was obviously angry, but she still smiled. She obviously wanted to scold people, but she still had to say some polite words.
As time passed, it was hard to change one’s nature.
Ye tingjun said,”not really …”
He didn’t mind whether it was awkward or not. Ye Chu was telling the truth most of the time. If he felt awkward, it must be because he had overdone it. Who could he blame? who was the one who gave him the illusion that he and ye Chu were about to talk about marriage?
It’s him!
Therefore, this had nothing to do with ye Chu.
“Really?”
“It’s true. ” Ye tingjun didn’t intend to let ye Chu suppress himself. It didn’t matter what she wanted to say or do. Anyway, he had been hit many times and was used to it.
I don’t like you, you can even say this kind of thing out loud, what’s there to be afraid of?
At least until now, ye Chu had said that he liked her.
“I think you’re lying to me.”
“I’m not lying to you. ” Ye tingjun smiled and said,”it’s rare for you to go and reflect on yourself. Aren’t you silly?”
He tapped her on the forehead.”If you really want to make it up to me, you can grill a squid for me later.”
“Alright!” Ye Chu clenched his claws.”I will work hard.”
And so, ye tingjun ate his first meal of the squid. It was hard to explain in a few words. It was half-cooked, and one bite would cause blood to flow out. However, the back of the squid was already burnt. After taking a bite, he felt that he had a new understanding of the squid. Looking at ye Chu’s expectant eyes, he couldn’t even swallow this squid that seemed to have mutated. He hurriedly spat it out.
Was it too late to swallow back the words he had said?
“It’s not good?” Ye Chu was very disappointed. She had roasted it together with Shen qianshu. Although the way Shen qianshu roasted it was a little different from hers, she thought that the taste would be the same. It was clearly a rare thing that ye Ling had given her the word ‘cooked’.
“It’s not delicious!” Ye tingjun felt that he could not abuse his stomach blindly for love. If he ate it, he would be pooping for the entire night. This mountain was really not elegant. Image was still very important.
“I’ll re-roast it. ”
“Don’t …” Before ye tingjun could stop her, ye Chu started to grill the squid again. Ye tingjun covered his face. If he didn’t ask for trouble, he wouldn’t have died. He took a corn and gave it to her.”How about corn? I like to eat corn.”
Tong Hua complained.”Second uncle, corn is harder to roast, okay??”
Ye tingjun suddenly understood. He snatched the corn and replaced it with onions.”Let’s roast onions.”
Be it raw or cooked, they were all edible. Ye Chu was not afraid of how she would roast them. He nodded his head heavily and took the onions to roast them seriously. Shen qianshu was considered good at cooking, and it was not a problem for her to make a few specialty dishes. Otherwise, she would not have raised Tong Hua to such an age. Drinking milk and eating bread would not make him look like this. It was also unique when it came to roasting things, and it was even better than her cooking.
Ye Yifan looked at the people who did not know how to do it, but they were also experts at organizing banquets and barbecuing. Other than ye Chu who really did not know how to do it, there was also Tong Hua who was causing trouble. Actually, everyone knew how to do it, and the finished product was not bad.
No matter what ye Chu grilled, she would be able to grill it into an indescribable shape. Even the onions would be overcooked. She was also an expert. After a few practice sessions, she finally grilled the squid. Although she forgot to add sauce and the taste was very light, ye tingjun thought that it was considered cooked and would not torture his stomach. He was not picky about eating it after taking up lemon juice.
The barbecue was very lively, and Tong Hua even played a song. It was a happy song, and ye Ling said viciously,”it’s so unpleasant to hear.”
“Daddy, you don’t know how to appreciate music. If you’re so good, why don’t you sing a song?”
Shen qianshu blindly cheered.”Yeah, you can sing.”
Ye Ling kept quiet.
The barbeque was very successful. The fragrance of the food spread for miles, and there was singing and laughter. A few families came for a walk on the mountain. They all came to get some food and greeted each other. They were very kind.
The night of New Year’s Eve was a little cold. Ye Chu had eaten her fill and was wrapped in a down jacket as she read in the tent. Ye tingjun roasted a plate of vegetables and cut them into small mouthfuls to feed her.
“Second brother, you’re amazing. You even know how to barbecue. What can’t you do?” She was really quite curious. He was a God and knew everything. He was so amazing. Her eyes even turned pink.
Ye tingjun thought about it seriously.”Is he really that powerful?”
“Amazing.”
“Then why don’t you like me?”

Today’s update is over. Although it’s only one chapter, it’s 6000 words. The six chapters are combined into one. The signal is bad in the mountains, so I’m afraid that I’ll have to send the cards one chapter at a time.

?1888 The daily life of a family
Ye Chu’s learning attitude was extremely serious. When she said she wanted to learn Chinese, she started to learn Chinese. She bought a thick Chinese dictionary. She only knew simple Chinese and had a very poor foundation. Ye tingjun ordered a set of elementary teaching materials for her to learn slowly. At night, he would especially take time out to tutor her.
In her spare time, she would follow Tong Hua to the production team to play. Occasionally, she would accompany ye tingjun to his classmates ‘reunions and friends’ reunions.

It was very embarrassing!
He felt that he was about to raise a son who was focused on romance. What should he do?
In such a lively atmosphere, it was soon New Year’s Eve. Ye tingjun really managed to persuade ye Ling and his family to spend New Year’s Eve at the ye family’s mansion. Ye Ling had not spent New Year’s Eve at the mansion for many years. To him, the only blood ties he had in the ye family were ye Yifan and ye tingjun.

“Sure, sure …” It sounded fun. Of course, as a French person, she didn’t pay much attention to New Year’s Eve. After the waiter explained it to her, she knew that it was the most important reunion Festival in the country. Setting up a tent to stay up for the new year sounded very fun.
Shen qianshu was an interesting person. No matter how boring a person was, she could bring them along. Her life was colorful.”We can even set up a tent and have a barbecue. I have already asked people to prepare the ingredients. They have already sent them up the mountain. Anyway, this meal will be at the ye family mansion. Everyone will not be able to eat their fill.”
With ye Bao’s family and ye Ling around, they definitely wouldn’t be full.
Ye Ling was silent for a moment and interrupted her excitement.”Fire is forbidden in the forest.”
Shen qianshu thought to herself, old-fashioned!
“This is a private mountain, not the country ‘s. Doesn’t the ye family have shares too? there’s no need for someone to manage the barbecue in their own house. Why do you have to care so much? I’ve already asked people to clear out the open space and clean up all the withered grass and leaves. Just in case, I’ve already informed the firefighters and prepared the gardening truck. Are you not afraid of the fire?”
Ye Ling was speechless.
You’re already so well prepared, why are you still asking me?
Shen qianshu and ye Chu high-fived each other.”Look, second uncle will definitely agree. Of course, Yifan and Tong Hua will not object to it. You are the only one in the whole family who objects. The majority rules. Your objection is invalid. Remember to be a laborer. I have not moved the materials up the mountain yet.”
They couldn’t drive up to the top of the mountain directly. They could only walk up. It took more than half an hour to walk up. It was a very steep mountain. It also took half an hour to climb up the middle of the mountain from the ye family. Naturally, they had to find men to do the hard work. They couldn’t let the girls who were as beautiful as flowers do it.
Ye Ling did not say anything, and it was considered a silent agreement. Shen qianshu knew that he would agree. This show looked very fun, and everything was ready.
When they returned from the tomb-sweeping, it was a mighty scene again. Ye Bao even complained that ye Ling came to sweep the tomb and refused to come to the cemetery. He was only here to be qianshu and Tong Hua’s driver. He did not even treat himself as a member of the ye family. What reunion dinner was there to have?
Tong Hua stretched out his leg and tripped him on purpose. He almost fell. Tong Hua apologized without any sincerity.”I’m sorry, second uncle. I didn’t mean it.”
He paused for a moment.”Our family has always sent a representative. You see, my daddy sent me here as a representative, didn’t he?”
When they returned from the tomb-sweeping, they started to prepare dinner. It was already afternoon. The ye family mansion had not been so lively in a long time. Even ye Feifei had returned. Of course, the ye family and the Lu family had completely fallen out. Ye Feifei came back alone without her husband and child. She and ye Baozi had not changed their habit of eating sh * t. Now that they could not cause any trouble, they only knew how to say a few superficial words.
Shen qianshu could not find anything to pick on, so she started to pick on ye Chu. Ye Feifei deliberately praised the socialites and mocked ye Chu for being unpresentable. However, she was very enthusiastic when she said it. The old lady felt very helpless because ye Chu was eating an Apple while listening very enthusiastically. She did not understand at all!
She didn’t know if this girl really didn’t understand or was just pretending to be innocent.
Shen qianshu felt that she could laugh at this scene for a year. Ye Feifei was also very lucky.
Although they quarreled a little and each had their own thoughts, after ye tingjun gave out a large amount of red packets, they all became more obedient. The large amount of red packets was really a large amount of red packets. He took 20% of miss’s bonus for half a year and used it as the ye family’s education Fund. This meant that all the children and grandchildren of the ye family could enjoy this Education Fund. At least, it guaranteed that everyone could receive higher education and the opportunity to go abroad for further studies. This meant that they would not starve to death.
Ye Bao was greedy and insatiable. Miss’s annual bonus was a lot. Even if she took out 20% for half a year, it would already be very impressive. He had long lost his real power because of ye Ling. He enjoyed himself every day and had nothing to do. He was also controlled by his wife. He had the crooked idea of managing this fund.
Ye Feifei was also unwilling to let go of this bonus. The Lu family was not going to make it. If they did not get a divorce, she would have money to support herself in the future. The two of them were arguing until their faces were red.
Ye Yifan gasped in amazement.
It was high.
Originally, second uncle and aunt had formed an alliance against outsiders, so the three brothers were not afraid. However, there would always be some cold words that made them unhappy. This way, their alliance was disintegrated from the inside.
The last one was ye Bao. Ye Feifei and ye Yifan supervised the funds together.
They would monitor each other.
Ye Yifan was speechless.
Didn’t I say I was just a rice weeper?
As expected, this meal was not very happy. On New Year’s Eve, everyone suppressed their temper and did not flare up. Ye Ling did not say a single word throughout the entire meal and ate slowly as if it was a delicious dish. However, just by sitting there, he was a deterrent for the head of the family. If he didn’t speak, the rest of the people would also speak less. Ye Chu, who loved to eat, felt that the food didn’t taste good and secretly kicked ye tingjun under his feet.
The waiter sneakily kicked him back, and the two even started playing.
It was very childish.
The New Year’s Eve reunion dinner, which was almost silent, was finished without any disturbance. No one made any trouble. Dinner and desserts lasted for a full two hours. Ye Bao and the others left after dinner.
Shen qianshu also organized other programs. They went to the mountaintop for a barbecue and even invited the old lady. The old lady did not have the energy to argue with the young people. She went straight back to her room and ignored Shen qianshu.
Anyway, in her heart, Shen qianshu was definitely not the best candidate for the eldest daughter-in-law. However, she had no choice as she had a strong background.
Ye Ling and ye tingjun were the coolies. The charcoal and the barbecue ingredients were carried up the mountain. For convenience’s sake, Shen qianshu packed four huge bags. The two brothers carried one bag in each hand and carried it up the mountain with great difficulty.
Ye Yifan and Tong Hua were singing and dancing all the way, chasing each other. They were either behind or in front of them.
Ye Ling gritted his teeth.
Forget it, they were all ancestors.
Shen qianshu and ye Chu only took some sauces, fruits, and drinks. They were not heavy either. Ye tingjun said,”Yifan, didn’t you see the two sisters-in-law getting drinks? go over and help.”
Ye Yifan carried Tong Hua up.”I’m holding onto Tong Hua.”
Ye tingjun was speechless.
“You win!”
Tong Hua kicked him.”Do you have any shame?”
The tents had already been moved up, and there were three tents set up. Ye Chu nodded and confirmed that there were no mistakes.”Why are there only three tents?”
“The tents are very heavy, and only two of them carried it up. It’s enough for us to live in. Ye Ling and I will live in one, you and second uncle will live in another, and Yifan and Tong Hua will live in the other. Three tents are enough.”
Ye Chu was confused, but it was too late to stop her when ye tingjun realized what she was going to say.
Ye Chu asked,”why do I have to sleep in the same tent as second brother? we sleep separately.”
Shen qianshu was speechless.
Ye Yifan was speechless.
Tong Hua said,”er … Awkward!”
“Ha!”
Ye Ling’s “ha” was especially meaningful. It was almost the same as Shen qianshu and ye Yifan ‘s. They looked at ye tingjun with a “you’re really useless” expression. Ye tingjun felt that this scene had already refreshed the most awkward scene in his history.
Ye Chu was confused. She had never understood the ways of the world and the matters between men and women. However, when everyone looked at ye tingjun with a complicated expression, she felt that her ears were burning. She felt that she should not have said it so shamelessly. Did she embarrass the waiter?
The atmosphere was quite awkward. The little fairy, who had always been good at adjusting the atmosphere and chatting awkwardly, felt that her emotional intelligence was lacking. She didn’t know how to make up for it. Ye Chu ran away with a pile of materials.
The crowd was speechless.
Ye Yifan said,”second brother, you can’t do it. It’s been so long and you still haven’t gotten the treatment of sleeping together?”
Then, are you dating in platu? a high school romance where you kissed and held hands? can you be satisfied with that? Amazing.
“You shut up!”
Ye tingjun took an Apple and went to look for ye Chu. Ye Chu put down the materials and faced the wall alone to reflect. He really faced the wall and stood in front of a stone wall. He stood straight, and his back view showed some awkwardness and annoyance.
Ye tingjun walked over. Ye Chu turned around, and his eyes were red. Ye tingjun was shocked.”What’s wrong? ignore Yifan and sister-in-law. They’re just joking.”
Ye Chu lowered his head and didn’t say anything. Ye tingjun passed the Apple over.”Do you want an Apple?”
The Apple that he always loved could not pull back the sad little apple. Ye tingjun sighed. Just as he was about to say something, ye Chu snatched the Apple away.”I don’t mind what they say.”
Actually, there was nothing wrong with what they said.
She felt that she had been too careless and always spoke without thinking, embarrassing the second brother, so she was very upset. It was
“Then why?” He could be considered as someone who understood ye Chu better, but ye Chu was too innocent. Sometimes, he couldn’t understand her thoughts with his own thinking, so he had to communicate more.
Ye Chu played with the Little Apple and sat at the side. He started to eat the apple without any distractions. Ye tingjun had no choice but to sit down with her. When she was almost done with the Apple, ye Chu was finally willing to speak.
“Second brother, do I often make you feel embarrassed when I speak without thinking?”
Ye Chu did realize that she would make ye tingjun feel awkward sometimes, but sometimes, she did not understand. When she was in school, her classmates said that she was too direct sometimes and would offend people. When she went home and asked ye tingjun, ye tingjun said,”you don’t need to rely on them for a living, and you don’t need to develop a stable relationship with them. It doesn’t matter if you offend them or not.”
When a person reached a high level, they didn’t need to consider the problem of offending people. There were many people who wanted to curry favor with her. When she thought about it this way, she didn’t want to suffer. She was obviously angry, but she still smiled. She obviously wanted to scold people, but she still had to say some polite words.
As time passed, it was hard to change one’s nature.
Ye tingjun said,”not really …”
He didn’t mind whether it was awkward or not. Ye Chu was telling the truth most of the time. If he felt awkward, it must be because he had overdone it. Who could he blame? who was the one who gave him the illusion that he and ye Chu were about to talk about marriage?
It’s him!
Therefore, this had nothing to do with ye Chu.
“Really?”
“It’s true. ” Ye tingjun didn’t intend to let ye Chu suppress himself. It didn’t matter what she wanted to say or do. Anyway, he had been hit many times and was used to it.
I don’t like you, you can even say this kind of thing out loud, what’s there to be afraid of?
At least until now, ye Chu had said that he liked her.
“I think you’re lying to me.”
“I’m not lying to you. ” Ye tingjun smiled and said,”it’s rare for you to go and reflect on yourself. Aren’t you silly?”
He tapped her on the forehead.”If you really want to make it up to me, you can grill a squid for me later.”
“Alright!” Ye Chu clenched his claws.”I will work hard.”
And so, ye tingjun ate his first meal of the squid. It was hard to explain in a few words. It was half-cooked, and one bite would cause blood to flow out. However, the back of the squid was already burnt. After taking a bite, he felt that he had a new understanding of the squid. Looking at ye Chu’s expectant eyes, he couldn’t even swallow this squid that seemed to have mutated. He hurriedly spat it out.
Was it too late to swallow back the words he had said?
“It’s not good?” Ye Chu was very disappointed. She had roasted it together with Shen qianshu. Although the way Shen qianshu roasted it was a little different from hers, she thought that the taste would be the same. It was clearly a rare thing that ye Ling had given her the word ‘cooked’.
“It’s not delicious!” Ye tingjun felt that he could not abuse his stomach blindly for love. If he ate it, he would be pooping for the entire night. This mountain was really not elegant. Image was still very important.
“I’ll re-roast it. ”
“Don’t …” Before ye tingjun could stop her, ye Chu started to grill the squid again. Ye tingjun covered his face. If he didn’t ask for trouble, he wouldn’t have died. He took a corn and gave it to her.”How about corn? I like to eat corn.”
Tong Hua complained.”Second uncle, corn is harder to roast, okay??”
Ye tingjun suddenly understood. He snatched the corn and replaced it with onions.”Let’s roast onions.”
Be it raw or cooked, they were all edible. Ye Chu was not afraid of how she would roast them. He nodded his head heavily and took the onions to roast them seriously. Shen qianshu was considered good at cooking, and it was not a problem for her to make a few specialty dishes. Otherwise, she would not have raised Tong Hua to such an age. Drinking milk and eating bread would not make him look like this. It was also unique when it came to roasting things, and it was even better than her cooking.
Ye Yifan looked at the people who did not know how to do it, but they were also experts at organizing banquets and barbecuing. Other than ye Chu who really did not know how to do it, there was also Tong Hua who was causing trouble. Actually, everyone knew how to do it, and the finished product was not bad.
No matter what ye Chu grilled, she would be able to grill it into an indescribable shape. Even the onions would be overcooked. She was also an expert. After a few practice sessions, she finally grilled the squid. Although she forgot to add sauce and the taste was very light, ye tingjun thought that it was considered cooked and would not torture his stomach. He was not picky about eating it after taking up lemon juice.
The barbecue was very lively, and Tong Hua even played a song. It was a happy song, and ye Ling said viciously,”it’s so unpleasant to hear.”
“Daddy, you don’t know how to appreciate music. If you’re so good, why don’t you sing a song?”
Shen qianshu blindly cheered.”Yeah, you can sing.”
Ye Ling kept quiet.
The barbeque was very successful. The fragrance of the food spread for miles, and there was singing and laughter. A few families came for a walk on the mountain. They all came to get some food and greeted each other. They were very kind.
The night of New Year’s Eve was a little cold. Ye Chu had eaten her fill and was wrapped in a down jacket as she read in the tent. Ye tingjun roasted a plate of vegetables and cut them into small mouthfuls to feed her.
“Second brother, you’re amazing. You even know how to barbecue. What can’t you do?” She was really quite curious. He was a God and knew everything. He was so amazing. Her eyes even turned pink.
Ye tingjun thought about it seriously.”Is he really that powerful?”
“Amazing.”
“Then why don’t you like me?”

Today’s update is over. Although it’s only one chapter, it’s 6000 words. The six chapters are combined into one. The signal is bad in the mountains, so I’m afraid that I’ll have to send the cards one chapter at a time.
