When he received a whistle from the driver behind him, Ye Kao jumped off the carriage and went around to the back of the carriage to check the wheels.

Yang Huazhong and Yang Huazhou also wanted to get out of the car to check, but were stopped by Ye Yi.

"My third uncle and my father-in-law don't need to get out of the car. They can just wait for me in the carriage."

Yang Huazhong and Yang Huazhou had no choice but to stay in the carriage temporarily, waiting for Ye Yi to check the situation at any time.

After getting off the car at night, it looked like I was squatting next to the car and checking the wheels, but in fact I let out the feeling of my five senses...

After a while, the carriage from behind also came over, and the driver was Xiao An.

After receiving Ye Yi's lantern message, Xiao An discovered a pothole in the road in time, carefully avoided it, and then slowly parked the carriage next to Ye Yi's carriage.

In the carriage, Xiao Jie's father and Chang Gen, who were dozing off, also opened their eyes and lifted the curtain of the carriage to look outside.

Xiao An said: "Uncle, Uncle Changgen, you don't have to get out of the car. I'm going to see what's going on with Yoruichi."

After Xiao An got out of the car, he glanced around cautiously. Then, he quietly pressed the knife on his waist with one hand and walked towards Ye Yi calmly...

…

Yang Ruoqing woke up very early and found that it was raining outside.

The seat next to her was already empty, and the sound of walking could be heard outside the house. It must be that Mrs. Sun was cleaning the corridor, wiping away the dead leaves that had been rolled up by the rain on the windowsill.

Yang Ruoqing glanced at the hourglass on the table. It was still early and her fourth and fifth aunts hadn't come over to cook yet.

She put on her clothes and went outside the house. At this time, Mrs. Sun had finished cleaning up the porch, opened the oil-paper umbrella, picked up the bamboo basket and was about to go to the vegetable garden.

Seeing Yang Ruoqing come out sleepy, Sun smiled and said, "It's still early, can you sleep a little longer?"

Yang Ruoqing yawned and shook her head, "Mom, do you still go to the vegetable garden after it rains? It's muddy all the way, so don't go there. Just pick some vegetables in the backyard."

Mrs. Sun said: "We can't make do with it. There are many people eating in the morning, so I cooked two hard-boiled eggs for you. You can eat them first to satisfy your stomach."

Yang Ruoqing knew that she couldn't stop Sun, so she had to let her go.

As soon as Mrs. Sun walked to the door, she met Lao Yangtou and Yu Xingkui.

"Third daughter-in-law, your eldest nephew asked me to give you this money. It's for everyone's meals these days."

Old Yang called to Mr. Sun and threw a piece of silver over him.

When I looked at the silver, I found it was nearly three taels.

It's a decent amount of money used to buy meals.

"Dad, don't worry," said Sun.

My brother-in-law's funeral, his own small courtyard and small stove could not bear the food and drink problem of ten or twenty people.

Since last night, everyone has been coming to her house for dinner.

"How can we not be in a hurry? As soon as your brother-in-law passes away, the funeral will have to be arranged in a hurry, and everyone who handles it will have to eat and drink."

"Among the wives of this generation in my family, you are the most reliable."

"You should keep this money, be more careful, and help sort out the rear area. Your brother-in-law will be grateful to you if he is alive in heaven."

Old Yangtou talked to Mrs. Sun calmly, and at the same time said: "Without special affection and character, it is impossible to lend the kitchen at home to other families for funerals."

"Third daughter-in-law, you have done a good job in this regard. I am grateful to you on behalf of your brother-in-law."

"Dad, no, no, no, this is what I should do..." Mrs. Sun was busy waving her hands.

Her father-in-law's words made her feel like she was in a dream. She had been in Lao Yang's house for more than 30 years. It was the first time she heard such words. She was so flattered that she didn't know how to place her hands and feet.

"Okay, you accept the money and take them to prepare the meals so that everyone can eat well."

"When the time comes, if there is any surplus, or if it is not enough, we will refund more and make up for the less."

"You are a generous elder, and the young couple are also understanding. When the funeral is completed smoothly, they will naturally come to thank you in person."

Ms. Sun understood who the "young couple" mentioned by Old Yangtou were. They were the grandson and granddaughter-in-law of her brother-in-law's family.

These three taels of silver were also sent over by the couple through asking Lao Yangtou.

Mrs. Sun nodded meekly, "Okay, I'll ask Qing'er and the others to write down what I ate and bought later."

When Old Yangtou heard the words, he twitched the corner of his mouth, seeming to be a little disdainful.

"From the Third Brother's family, just feel free to prepare the meals. Who doesn't know what kind of character you are?"

"Besides, with your family's current conditions, who would believe that you want to pay for three taels of food? No need to keep accounts, this matter is about trust!"

What Lao Yangtou said was righteous and strict, as if Mr. Sun had just kept accounts and was out of touch.

Sun smiled and didn't argue much on this matter.

"Dad, you haven't slept all night, have you? I'll boil a pot of hot water for you, and you can wash up and take a nap?"

Mrs. Sun looked at the two dark circles on Old Yang's head and asked with concern.

Old Yang shook his head and said to Mrs. Sun: "You don't have to work anymore. I'll wash my face with cold water and go over later."

"Dad, you haven't slept all night, you are getting older, and you still..."

"I have my own sense of propriety. Besides, your brother-in-law is only going to die this time. I don't miss a night or two of sleep. You can go about your business."

In this way, Old Yangtou let Yu Xingkui push him back to his house.

"Xingkui, bring me a basin of cold water and make me a bowl of tea."

"Remember, grab a handful of more tea leaves, the stronger the better, I want to refresh myself."

Yu Xingkui hesitated and persuaded: "Uncle, last time you had a stomachache, Uncle Fu and the others told you not to drink too strong tea, as it will hurt your spleen and stomach."

Old Yangtou's previous patience was all given to Sun, so now facing Yu Xingkui's persuasion, the old man was a little irritable.

"I want to refresh myself, so stop trying to persuade me and give me a quick drink!"

Just drink it once and it won't hurt you.

Yu Xingkui had no choice but to make strong tea for Lao Yangtou.

In order to properly neutralize it a little bit, at least not so bitterly, Yu Xingkui added a few pieces of rock sugar to the tea.

When he brought the tea over, Old Yang leaned his head on the wheelchair and fell asleep with his head raised and his mouth open.

And he also snored.

Yu Xingkui couldn't bear to wake up Old Yangtou, so he put the tea aside and went to get a coat for Old Yangtou.

As soon as he put his coat on Old Yangtou's chest, the old man suddenly opened his eyes.

"How long have I been sleeping?" Old Yangtou suddenly asked.

"I just closed my eyes and it took less than a bowl of tea." Yu Xingkui said.

"Tea? Tea? Where's my refreshing tea?" Old Yang sat up straight, looked around, and asked again.

Yu Xingkui quickly brought the tea over: "Uncle, the tea is here."

Old Yangtou drank tea and wiped cold water on his face to cheer up a little.

"Come on, let's go over there."

Yu Xingkui responded, hurriedly came over and pushed Lao Yang out of the house.

Although Old Uncle Yang was a bit harsh on his children and grandchildren, Yu Xingkui saw Old Uncle Yang's feelings for his younger brother from beginning to end.

It’s not surprising that the younger brother is tolerant of his elder brother in every possible way.
