Chapter 126: A Grand Banquet



Chapter 126: A Grand Banquet

Ye Ze said casually: "Maybe you and I are in sync. I had a feeling that my family would be in danger, so I rushed back."

"Really?!" Zhao Li believed it, raised her head and blinked her bright almond eyes at him in surprise: "So that's how it is..."

Is this the telepathy that Mrs. Meng taught her?

Seeing the slightly tired look on Ye Ze's face, he must have rushed back overnight because he was worried that his family might be in danger. Zhao Li said distressedly, "Do you want to eat something first, then take a good shower and have a good sleep?"

"Wash! Take a shower first!" He wanted to take a shower before coming back, but he was delayed. He had been traveling for half a day and a night. If he didn't take a shower, his body would stink. What's more important is that his young wife was still watching him here!

"Okay, I'll go prepare the bath water for you."

They also have a bathroom here, so taking a bath is not a big deal.

"What? Brother Ze is back?" Old Mrs. Ye was so surprised when she learned that her youngest son had returned that she seemed to have suddenly become several years younger. Her legs and feet were much more agile than usual. "Let's go, let's go back quickly."

"Hey, Mom, please slow down..." Ye Qiulan quickly caught up with her mother, holding her arm and rushing home.

Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Meng also had smiles on their faces, and quickly led their children to catch up with the old lady and the others.

"Ze'er, Ze'er, come and let me see if you have lost weight?"

As soon as the old lady entered the door, she shouted at the top of her voice. Chen came forward and supported Old Lady Ye's other arm as she walked into the yard, winking and saying, "Mom, it's not easy for the young couple to meet each other, so shouldn't they be affectionate with each other?"

"Oh, yes, we should let them get closer to each other." Old Mrs. Ye smiled so much that wrinkles appeared on her face.

"I'll go burn some incense to the Bodhisattva right now. Thank you for your blessing!" Old Lady Ye put her hands together and continued, "Don't just sit there. Go and prepare the food. We're having a banquet today. Please invite everyone in the clan to come and have some fun."

"I'll get ready right now."

"I'll ask Aunt Six and the others to come over and help."

"Then let's go to the town to buy vegetables and meat first." Ye Lao Da and Ye Lao Er took the purse given by Ye Lao Ma and hurriedly drove the ox cart to the town.

The family had rice, flour, vegetables, meat and eggs ready, but they were not enough for a wedding banquet. Chen went to invite the aunts in the clan to help with the cooking. How long would it take to invite them one by one? Chen went directly to the threshing ground, which was the gathering place for the aunts in the clan.

When they heard that Ye Ze had returned and that the Ye family was going to hold a banquet, all the women and servants present were stunned.

"Chen, is the battle at the border over? Why hasn't my eldest son come back?"

Chen explained, "No, my third brother is back to do some work, so he can rest at home for two days. Aunt, please hurry up, I'm waiting for you to come to my house to steam buns. Everyone should come to my house for a feast tonight, and no one can be left out!"

"Sixth Aunt, where is my sister-in-law? You should hurry over too. My sister-in-law is an excellent cook. Without her, who will cook for this banquet?"

"Hahaha, look at Chen's mouth. We have to work first before we can eat. Don't wait any longer. Go home and call people!"

"Yes, I'll be there soon!"

"Hey! Then I'll go home and wait. Call all the aunts and sisters-in-law in our family who have not been notified. And don't forget to bring bowls, chopsticks, tables, chairs and benches, otherwise what we have at home will not be enough." Chen did not forget to remind.

"I know, I know." With the experience of the last time the Ye family moved, how could they not know what to take? In addition to the dishes, chopsticks, tables and chairs, eggs, cabbage, radishes, chickens and ducks... they also took everything they could. The things were not worth much, but they represented people's thoughts.

After Ye Ze washed himself, Zhao Li brought him a plate of snacks to fill his stomach. Looking out from the upstairs window, he could see the excitement in the front yard. Zhao Li smiled and said, "I'm afraid mother is going to hold a big banquet for you. There are so many people at home."

Ye Ze glanced outside and said while eating, "Do whatever the old lady wants."

"You, what do you mean by old lady is happy? Isn't it because you are back?" Zhao Li pouted in dissatisfaction, "You don't even know that when our family moved, Yan Niang didn't have the energy to make arrangements for the move."

"Uh," Ye Ze was stunned, he knew that the old lady was very good to the original owner and favored him since childhood, so he also respected the old lady very much. This kind of love the old lady had for her son was something that Ye Ran had never received since she was a child, so she tried to integrate into the original owner, she was him.

But no matter whether it is love or family affection, it must be cultivated slowly. It must be said that at this moment he finally felt the love of his mother!

"Take a rest after you finish eating. I'll go down to help." Seeing that he didn't reply, Zhao Li didn't say anything more.

Ye Ze nodded: "Okay."

It was not until the evening that Zhao Li came over and called Ye Ze to eat in the front yard.

There were 20 to 30 tables in the courtyard. The women could only eat after the men had finished eating, otherwise there wouldn't be enough tables and chairs. Because of the tight schedule, there were only six dishes on each table, but they were all served in small porcelain bowls and were quite filling.

Ye Ze frowned. He didn't like this kind of differential treatment, but when in Rome, do as the Romans do. He felt uncomfortable when he saw the boys sitting at the table and the girls watching. "Li'er, go cook a few more dishes and let the children eat first."

Zhao Li looked at the children leaning on the window and looked out, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go right away." After saying that, Zhao Li hurried to the kitchen, thinking to herself, it seems that my husband also likes children...

"Ze'er, here!"

As soon as Ye Ze arrived at the front yard, he was called over by Village Chief Ye. Village Chief Ye laughed and said, "You are a promising kid. Come, sit next to me and let me see if you have grown stronger."

Ye Ze walked over with a smile, "Uncle, you are underestimating me, right? I am very capable!"

Village Chief Ye joked with Ye Ze for a few words, and then began to ask about the things in the military camp. Everyone present had a young person in their family who served in the army, so when they heard the village chief asking about the things in the military camp, they all pricked up their ears and listened.

Although Ye Changqing said a lot in his last letter, they still felt reassured after hearing it from Ye Ze himself. Knowing that the younger generations in the clan were now soldiers under Ye Ze, everyone felt much more relieved.

Then, Ye Ze mentioned Ye Xiaoyong who was beaten to death. Village Chief Ye sighed, "He has evil intentions, and he deserves to be beaten to death! Chang Zhu is really blind. He didn't want his own eldest son, but insisted on raising a stepson. Now he is satisfied, isn't he?"

"By the way, Xiaoshuan and the others came to look for you. I heard that you are an official now?"

"Well, they are all in the same battalion with me, and are now my lieutenants."

"He really became an official! That's good, that's good. Xiaoshuan is actually a good kid."

"What do you think Changzhu would do if he knew that his beloved stepson was a deserter and was beaten to death, while his own son who had severed all ties with him became an official?"

"Haha, he must be regretting it so much that his intestines are turning green!"

"..."

Just as they were enjoying their meal, a voice from Shouhou Goudan suddenly came from outside the hanging flower door, "Boss!"

"Boss, why didn't you tell us something happened at home?"
