According to the plan, Ye Qingran quickly found two men from the town who were willing to help with the work.
They live close by, it's easy to get back and forth, they are tall and powerful, and they eat a lot, and Ye Qingran is in charge of the food here, so they all think they can't find a better job than this.
The shop was too busy. Ye Qingran didn't go home for lunch for a month before this. He cooked all the meals by himself. But now that he had to cook for the other two, it wasn't too much trouble.
Although these two men eat a lot, they work very quickly and occasionally help with running errands and doing other chores. Ye Qingran was still very satisfied with these two people.
The two men were also full of praise for Ye Qingran's cooking skills. Their daughter-in-law even came to ask her to learn how to cook, but she was too busy and did not agree.
Three days later, Ye Yunlian came back and Zhao Zhiming came in with a little gift in his hand.
When Jiang and Ye Guodong saw the gift, although they didn't say anything, they felt a little uncomfortable.
Although the return home is not as big as the wedding ceremony, it is not so shabby. But Ye Yunlian was not aware of this problem. Instead, she was very happy to say that Zhao Zhiming was treating her better these days than before they got married. Mrs. Jiang had no choice but to follow her words and said, "Just be happy."
But while eating, Mrs. Jiang Ye Qingran, who had always been worried, saw that Ye Qingran was also worried, so he had to stop Ye Yunlian and give them a few instructions when they were about to go back.
"Although you shouldn't ask for too much, the most basic etiquette of returning home must be given. In other words, surface work also needs to be done. Mother is a little worried that you will not have a good life, so I am here to remind you. If If you need help, you can come to me, but don't make your mother sad."
Ye Qingran said it quite implicitly. Before Ye Yunlian said anything, Zhao Zhiming hurriedly retorted: "What do you mean, you don't want me to buy it? The things I have are not valuable. Of course, my humble family is not as good as your Ye family. Why do you need to be so mean when you look down on someone?"
"How could I mean this?" Ye Qingran frowned. I'm just reminding you, mother is just worried about Lian'er, why should you worry about it? What's more, the gift you brought is not in line with etiquette, and mother didn't say anything about it."
"I don't think it's worth it, so it doesn't suit your wishes. ? If you said that I am not worthy of your family, why should I get married? Humph, the whole family is snobbish!"
After saying that, Zhao Zhiming threw away his sleeves and left, leaving Ye Yunlian alone to face the displeased Ye Qingran. .
Ye Yunlian also became angry: "Why do you say that to Brother Ming? That gift is just a formality, why should it be so expensive? Brother Ming already works very hard every day, and he spent all his money just to marry me. , use the money to buy gifts? "Don't go too far!"
"Is this too much? I didn't pay for such a simple wedding ceremony. How much do you think he paid?" It's just a kid. The money he earned some time ago was enough, but he didn't go out at all. Now that he's getting married, he doesn't want to make money anymore, so he deducts some money from the homecoming gifts. It's really embarrassing."
Ye Qingran sighed. He said, "Sometimes, face is not supported by others, but earned by oneself. People like him have neither ability nor determination, so they can't achieve anything."
"I think you are just jealous that I have found a good family. , Do you want me to quarrel with Brother Ming? You are always like this. You were like this before we got married. Now that Brother Ming and I are married, you still want to cause trouble?"
"Don't be too ridiculous, Ye Yunlian, you have to have a limit to your whims, okay? ?"
Ye Qingran wanted to vomit when he saw her love-minded look. He really couldn't stand someone thinking like this, and this person was still his sister.
Mrs. Jiang heard the commotion outside and hurried over and asked, "What's going on? Why are you arguing?"
"Mom, Ye Qingran is inciting feelings between me and Brother Ming, and she also deliberately looks down on Brother Ming and makes him angry. If you leave, isn't this harming me?" After hearing this, Ms. Jiang felt a little helpless: "Your sister is worried that you will not have a good life if you marry Zhao Zhiming. His family's conditions are not good, and my mother knows it, but this gift is too shabby."
"Isn't the gift just for you to leave? Is it just a formality? You know that Brother Ming has no money, so why bother him? "
"Lian'er, you have to know that the more formal things are, the more face you ask for, the quality of the gift can be seen. It's not really about how expensive it is."
But even when Jiang reached this point, Ye Yunlian still didn't understand. She said angrily: "Anyway, you only care about money and not people. If they all reject Brother Ming, why don't they exclude me too? We don't have the money to provoke anyone? Isn't it enough that he treats me well?"
After saying this, she turned away without waiting for Mrs. Jiang to say anything else.
It was already dark at this time, and there were no lights on the small roads in the village. The road was completely dark. Ye Yunlian walked slower and slower. She looked around with some fear, but there was no one on the road, only the rustling in the grass on the roadside. The sound comes from time to time.
Although they were in the same village, Zhao Zhiming's home and the Ye family's house happened to be on opposite sides of the village, so it was still some distance to walk there.
But because of fear, she walked too slowly, and it was too dark on the road, so she couldn't see the road ahead clearly, and she almost stopped as she walked.
"Whose girl is this? She's waiting for her lover outside so late, right?"
Suddenly a man's voice sounded, and Ye Yunlian was startled. She turned her head and looked around, only to see a tall figure. He was staggering towards her, seemingly holding a wine jar in his hand.
She didn't dare to answer, so she had no choice but to walk to Zhao Zhiming's house, but the road was too dark and she couldn't walk fast, and she was soon overtaken by the man.
"Why are you running? This little girl smells pretty good. Come here and let me smell it..."
As he said that, the man threw the wine jar to the ground and held her arm to prevent her from leaving.
She had no choice but to say: "Let me go, I'm going home, let me go!"
"Let you go? I finally met a girl, why should I let her go?"
The man restrained her and pulled her from behind. He held her in his arms and said, "Why don't you go home? Why don't you follow me to my home? The bed in my house is very soft. Let's be happy together..."
"Let me go! If you don't let me go, let me go." I need to call someone! Help! Can someone help me?"
She shouted loudly, but there were not many people living nearby. The nearest man was an old man who was nearly eighty years old and couldn't hear her at all.
Seeing that this man was about to start tearing off her clothes.
