Alas, Mr. Ma never thought about how much money the poor Mr. Ye could have saved back then.
In fact, Ye Dahe's brother Ye Dahai had doubts. His parents were tight-lipped all their lives, so even if they had a little money to prepare for emergencies, they couldn't have a lot of money.
However, when the two brothers separated, they received the same amount of land and the same family size. How could his eldest brother suddenly have money? He never understood.
When Old Ma was nagging him at the beginning, he had analyzed it objectively. After all, he was annoyed that Old Ma always abducted his parents and scolded his parents for being partial, both overtly and secretly.
Of course his parents were partial, but it was he who was partial. Although he and his eldest brother had the same amount of land, his mother secretly gave him a pair of silver bracelets she had received as a dowry and four taels of silver she had accumulated.
Old Ma didn't know about this either, he was the only one who knew about it.
Ye Dahai felt like he had a mirror in his mind. His mother gave everything in her hands to him. As for his father, did he give the money to his eldest brother? But how could his father have so much money?
He used the money left by his mother to build a house with adobe walls and a thatched roof. Only the roofs of the three main rooms were covered with blue tiles. But his good brother built three brick houses, and although the other houses had adobe walls, they were not.
The roof is completely covered with blue tiles, which is not a small sum of money.
Building a house is a big deal for a villager. Which family doesn't borrow and borrow from here and there and work hard to get it done?
Which house doesn’t have to wait several years to finish building a house?
However, his good brother actually sent his grandson to school right after building the house~
From then on, whenever old Mr. Ma nagged him, he would remain silent, because he also wanted to know where his good brother got his money. It would be best if Mr. Qian's wife couldn't stand the provocation and let herself know. If it was really his father
If he gave money secretly, he would naturally not be polite to his good brother.
As a result, the old Ma family and the old Qian family have been fighting for so many years, but no gap has been found. The old Qian family's bitch is so harsh?
Ye Dahai, who was sitting in the main room, heard clearly what Mrs. Zhang was whistling in the yard. He took out his pipe and took a few puffs, exhaling circles of smoke.
Soon Mrs. Ma sent Mrs. Zhang to do housework, and then she hurriedly entered the main room. When she saw Ye Dahai smoking, she rolled her eyes: "I just know how to smoke, smoke, smoke..."
Without even raising his eyelids, Ye Dahai continued to smoke his cigarette with his head lowered. Every time his eldest brother's room was involved, Mr. Ma would make trouble with him, but he was indifferent to it.
Regardless of whether he responded or not, Mr. Ma sat down on the stool and grumbled: "I think Dafang's family must step on us!
That bitch, Mr. Qian, always wanted to take advantage of me and step on me for everything!
Now his niece is following her example and wants to step on the elders' family. It doesn't matter that the older generation wants to overpower me. Her eldest daughter-in-law also wants to overpower my eldest daughter-in-law?
This is bullying us to death!
Could it be that my grandchildren’s wives also want to dominate my family in the future?
Are we actually being bullied by our ancestors for generations?"
Ye Dahai, who had his head lowered and his expression on his face, suddenly trembled and raised his head with a fierce look in his eyes: "What did you say?"
The old Ma who was chattering was startled by his gaze: "What are you doing? Why are you so fierce? Did I say something wrong?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly reacted and opened his mouth wide: "What do you mean..."
Ye Dahai's eyes sparkled: "If you don't tell me, I haven't thought that if their eldest grandson really wants to become an official, then he won't be the only one who has been suppressing our family for generations."
Old Ma took a breath of surprise and said, "They have a beautiful idea!"
Just now she was just talking nonsense, she had never thought about this aspect. Her attention was all on Lao Qian, thinking about how the law could reveal the source of the silver.
Moreover, although Xiao Qian kept saying that her son wanted to be an official, old Ma didn't believe it at all. Is it so easy to become an official?
Now that Ye Dahai reminded me, I came to my senses. Isn't this the reason?
Ye Xusheng is a scholar. Isn't studying just for the purpose of gaining fame and becoming an official?
To put it bluntly, even if that kid can't become an official, he is a learned person, not a dirt-legged person who works in the field. In the future, he will be a shopkeeper or accountant, and he will be more respectable than her grandson.
By then, that bitch of the old Qian family will really be weighing on her... This chapter has been completed!
