After dinner, the whole family sat in the hall and talked.
The day was short in winter, and the sky soon turned dark.
It was too early and she could not sleep.
Ye Muyu thought about it and decided to teach Ye Zhao how to read.
Ziluo was cheering for her uncle.
“Sister, it’s too difficult to read.” Ye Zhao had been dealt a blow by his little niece time and time again, and he was about to cry now.
Old Madam Ye was sewing and listening to him. When she heard him, she slapped his arm. “You child, if you don’t take the opportunity to learn how to read, you won’t even know when you’re scammed.”
“I think your sister is right. Even if you can’t write, you have to recognize the words.”
“Tomorrow, I’ll sign you up for school. You go to school yourself. After you finish learning, do your own work.” Old Madam Ye said, not forgetting to ask for her daughter-in-law’s opinion.” Xiao Yan, do you think Mother wants Ye Zhao to learn how to read?”
“Husband, mother is doing this for your own good. Don’t be annoyed. I’ll make sweet soup for you, okay?” Su Yan coaxed gently and persuaded him.
Old Madam Ye heard this and scolded her jokingly. “You’re the only one who’s coaxing him. If a grown man doesn’t listen, just give him a beating.”
Ye Dejiang, who was too old to remember the words but had to listen obediently, shivered. He felt that his life in his later years was difficult.
“Mother, my husband will study hard. I will look after him.” Su Yan waved her hand.
Ye Zhao’s eyes lit up. He pulled Su Yan’s hand and said, “Mother, can I let my wife learn with me? Look at sister. Although she’s a woman, she can read.”
“Also, father and mother, although Big Brother’s official position is not high, he is still an official. You two are Big Brother’s parents. If you need to meet big brother’s superiors in the future, father and mother, you’ll have more confidence in your words if you study.” Ye Zhao smiled and winked at Old Madam Ye.
Old Madam Ye blushed and waved her hand immediately. “No, no, I’m already so old. Why do I still need to learn how to read? At most, you can teach me how to recognize a few words so that I won’t be scammed when I go out.”
Su Yan also hurriedly said, “No, husband, it’s fine as long as you can read. I… I haven’t even touched a book before. It won’t do.”
“No, Mother, Wife, you have to learn it together. Otherwise, I won’t be able to learn it. When the time comes, we might meet a smart person and be cheated away.”
Ye Zhao made a fuss and wanted the whole family to learn together.
Ye Muyu looked on with amusement and did not interrupt.
She picked up her brush and continued to write the follow-up plans and accounts for the Lu estate.
The words that Ziluo knew now were enough to teach the Ye family who could not read at all.
The next day, Han Zhuang brought the person in charge of the caravan and Huo An over to teach the long-term workers how to work.
The Lu estate gradually got on the right track. They moved the tea trees away while renovating the houses.
About five days later…
Song Lu came knocking.
Seeing Ye Muyu and Chu Heng, he looked a little dejected.
“Third Uncle, Third Aunt.”
“I’m here today to invite the two of you to the Song family.” Song Lu had been exhausted by the news that had been uncovered in the past few days. His heart and body were suffering. He had been taking a leave from school for three days in a row.
Ye Muyu and Chu Heng did not refuse. They informed Old Madam Ye before heading to the Song family.
When Ye Muyu and Chu Heng appeared, everyone in the Song family looked at them with fear and curiosity.
“Third Uncle, Third Aunt, please sit.” Song Lu welcomed the two into the main room.
Ye Muyu greeted the Song family’s elders. Most of the other members of the Song family were outside and did not come in.
