Seeing the people in the old house, Ye Ning's originally heavy heart became even heavier, to the point where she had difficulty breathing.
"What are you guys doing here?" Ye Ning's tone was cold, and she didn't show any face. "If you have anything to do, let grandpa come forward. What right do you have to question me?"
"You... I'm your grandma." The step-grandmother trembled angrily.
"I've said it countless times, my grandma died a long time ago, and my dad never called you mom. Let us call you grandma for the sake of grandpa, but it's not that we really want us to recognize you as grandma. Our two families have separated Home, written clearly in black and white, my dad doesn't want anything from grandpa, and he won't need my dad to support grandpa when he gets old, he followed Ye Qinghe, you were there at the time, you and Ye Qinghe both pressed your finger prints, and the calculation is the same Divorce makes no difference."
Ye Ning announced the news of Ye Qingshan's death at that time, but the mother-in-law next door came, the third uncle came, and even the second uncle who didn't move around very much came. Even the old man Ye, who was his father, was nowhere to be seen.
"It doesn't matter if you don't recognize me as a grandma. After all, I am not a relative, but you can't deny your grandpa. He is always your grandpa, right? Do you know that your grandpa knows that you went around him to find the third uncle, so angry Lie directly on the bed. What is divorce? Ye Ning, thanks to you are still a worker, can separation be the same as divorce? At the beginning, it was said to let your grandfather follow Qinghe, but your father didn’t come out of a rock, right? Even if you don’t follow He lives there, and you have to be filial during Chinese New Year and holidays, now that your father is gone, and your grandfather is a white-haired man giving a black-haired man, you should be even more filial."
Originally, the step-grandmother didn't intend to come here to make fun of herself, but Fang Ming was right, Ye Qingshan died on the construction site, there must be compensation, if there is no ten thousand, there will be eight thousand, including the money from the sale of the land, Ye Ning, this stinky girl has a lot of money. He has a lot of money, no wonder he has the confidence to support his younger brothers and sisters, the old man is Ye Qingshan's biological father, so he also has a share of the money, why should it be taken away by Ye Ning, a stinky girl.
"Honoring the elderly is the duty of children. Now that my father is dead, grandpa has sons and daughters. It is not our turn to be filial to the three grandchildren, unless..." Ye Ning looked at them with a sneer, "Ye Fangming and Ye Qinghe If they are all dead, then I will take the old man over without saying a word."
"What are you talking about, you stinky girl?" The step-grandmother heard her cursing her two sons, she couldn't pretend anymore, and said fiercely, "I will tear your crap out of your mouth today."
Seeing that she was about to rush over, Ye Lan rushed out with a broom, beat her with one sweep, and knocked her over to the ground.
"Hey! Help, I've been beaten to death, my wife is going to be beaten to death by an unfilial woman." The step-grandmother wailed on the ground.
Ye Ning picked up the hatchet in the yard, "Wang Chunxiang, the broom can't kill people, but the hatchet can. Anyway, you have slandered us for killing people. Why don't I just settle this matter?"
Wang Chunxiang suddenly looked like a chicken being strangled, unable to make any sound, it was because Ye Ning's eyes were too indifferent now, as if she was looking at a dead person, she was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat.
"Don't think that I don't know what you're up to. Our two families have separated long ago. If there is anything in my house that doesn't match yours, I still say the same thing. Do you want us to take care of the elderly? Fine, unless Ye Fangming and Ye Qinghe The two families are dead." Ye Ning glanced at the quail-like little aunt next to her, "My dad's funeral will be in two days, you, you, whoever dares to make my dad restless, I will make you restless."
At the beginning, the grandfather was afraid that his stepmother would bully Ye Qingshan, so he separated Ye Qingshan from Old Man Ye when he was seriously ill. He made it very clear that Ye Qingshan didn't want a penny or anything from Old Man Ye, and he didn't need to provide for the elderly in the future. When I was there, I always kept the water in the well, but now that Ye Qingshan is gone, these people bully them when they are young, trying to take advantage of them, Ye Ning knows that these are vampires, once they are weak, they will push forward and suck Don't do anything until their blood is gone.
Ye Lan and Ye Eucalyptus took out their hatchets and stood behind their sister, supporting her sister with practical actions.
"You... your parents taught me just right. I've learned a lot." Wang Chunxiang got up and pulled the youngest daughter-in-law away.
"Sister, are you okay?" Ye Lan was worried that people from the old house would come and make noise during the funeral.
"Don't worry, we'll invite uncle over tomorrow morning, I'll see if that family dares to come." Ye Ning snorted softly.
Uncle has five brothers, counting himself as six, each brother has two to five sons, and the son has two to five sons, nearly forty young and strong, slipped out to your house At the previous stop, most of them were frightened, so my uncle's branch has a great say in Xiangshe Village, and I have never been afraid when I went out.
The reason why the people in the old house were so peaceful in the past was because of the pressure of their uncle, but in the past two years, his uncle's health has not been as good as before, and the money in Ye Ning's hands is too attractive, so Wang Chunxiang dared to come to the house .
Before dawn, the three siblings ate a little and went to Xiangshe Village to find their aunt and uncle.
"Sister, why don't you go?" They walked about five miles, mostly uphill, and Ye Lan saw that Ye Ning was out of breath.
"It's okay. The three of us went to invite uncle together. It seems sincere. The people in the old house want our money, and they won't let it go. They are all elders, so they naturally have the upper hand. I don't want them to disturb Dad." For An Ning, uncle must be invited here, with his old man in charge, forgive Wang Chunxiang and they will not dare to mess around."
After walking for more than two hours and finally turning over two mountains, Ye Ning let out a long sigh of relief.
"Reached?"
"Not yet, just walk another kilometer along this path." Ye Lan said without blushing or panting.
This place has beautiful mountains and clear waters, it's really good to travel, but it's too remote, it's not convenient to live in this place and buy things.
"Is there electricity here?" Ye Ning looked around, as if there were no wires.
"No, I don't even have a supply store. I usually go down the mountain every two or three months to buy necessities." In fact, I can only buy salt, and I can't afford anything else. "Sister, don't go to Xiangshe Village, this place is good."
Xiangshe Village is off the beaten path, and because of the inconvenient transportation, nothing can affect here. In the past, when everyone was hungry, only the people in Xiangshe Village were full. Otherwise, my uncle would not ask my aunt to marry me back to the village.
After walking for another ten minutes, I finally saw people. There are more than a dozen large courtyards beside a large pond. These courtyards are really big. If you look closely, there are at least six rooms in one courtyard.
"A family here with such a big yard? That's really rich." Ye Ning sighed.
"No, there are several families in this courtyard. Sister, look at the tallest courtyard, where our aunt lives. There are five other families in the same hall, and they are all relatives." This is the case in the countryside, a village If you count them up, they are all relatives.
"What about uncle?"
"It's the yard by the water. The whole yard belongs to my uncle. There are six rooms in total. My uncle lives in one room, and the other five rooms belong to his five sons." Ye Qingshan came to visit relatives, he is very familiar with this place, unlike Ye Ning, because he is too lazy to walk, he has never been here.
"Shall we go to my aunt's house first or to my uncle's house first?" Ye Lan asked at the fork.
Ye Ning thought for a while, "Go to aunt's house first, and then ask aunt to take us to find uncle."
After all, after a generation, it would be better for my aunt to take them there.
The three of them came to the aunt's house. There were two old ladies sewing clothes on the threshold of the gate. When they saw Ye Ning, they asked, "Whose relatives? Why haven't you seen them?"
"Grandma, I'm here to find my aunt, her name is Ye Qingmei." Ye Ning said quickly.
"Nephew of Qingmei's family?" Grandma looked Ye Ning and her brother up and down. She didn't expect Ye Qingmei, who is thick and strong, to have such a beautiful niece, and she didn't know if she was married. "Wait a minute, I'll call someone .”
Grandma put down her things, walked up the side path for a while, and shouted at the corner, "Qingmei, Qingmei, your niece is here to find you."
"Second Aunt said who came to see me?" Ye Qingmei was digging the ground, when she heard Second Aunt shouting, she turned her head to ask her husband who was hard at work.
"It sounds like your niece."
"Then it must be Xiaolan, why is she here? Could it be that the old hag bullied their siblings?" Ye Qingmei thought of this, she dropped her hoe and walked down the mountain quickly.
"You wait for me, you will suffer alone, and I will go with you."
Xiangshe Village is remote, the people in the village are used to self-sufficiency, they seldom go down the mountain, in the past one or two months, there has been a lot of work in the field, and no one has gone down the mountain, so much so that Ye Qingmei didn't even know about Ye Qingshan's death.
Ye Qingmei and her husband rushed down the mountain and saw that the three children of the younger brother's family had come, they were anxious, "Xiao Ning, why are you here too? Did that old witch bully you? Don't be afraid, aunt will support you."
Ye Lan burst into tears when she saw her aunt, "Gu, my dad... died."
The aunt widened her eyes and said angrily: "What are you talking about, kid? Your father went out to work to make money, and it wasn't for you, so why are you talking and cursing him?"
Ye Ning choked with sobs, "My dad... is really gone. He went out to work with the people in the village. He thought the wages at the construction site were low, so he found a mine to work, but he didn't come up after leaving the mine, and the body was never found. To set up a tomb, he must have a home. The date has been set, July 16th. One of them came here today to talk to you, and the other is to ask uncle to help. You don’t care what kind of people in the old house I know, I don't want my father to leave and feel uneasy, and my uncle is in charge, so those monsters and ghosts don't dare to mess around."
Ye Qingmei sat slumped on the ground, and murmured in disbelief, "Impossible, how is it possible? We still sat and ate together during Chinese New Year, and even talked about going out to work to make money, why did it disappear? He... Qingshan was only in his early 40s, and he was Why is it gone? Did you find out? Is it the same name? Your father is so young, why did he die?"
The grandma next to her was stunned when she heard the news, Ye Qingshan and the others knew each other, they would come to help Ye Qingmei's elder sister work during the busy farming seasons, and they came here during the Chinese New Year, why did they die
Eucalyptus Ye cried out, he still can't believe it, Ye Ning and Ye Lan are the first to recover, after all they have known the news for several months, the saddest time has passed.
"Auntie, I have already found someone to make Dad's coffin, and I have asked Master Wu to choose the cemetery. I will ask some uncles to pull up the stone today and set up a mourning hall tomorrow. We are young and don't understand anything, so Please help me manage it.”
Ye Qingmei looked at the three young children in front of her, and burst into tears, "What's the favor? If I don't help with this favor, how could my brother die.",,,
