After fleeing famine, I have thousands of acres of fertile land

Chapter 306: Leg Fall



Chapter 306: Leg Fall

After Ye Yuan posted the list, he went back happily. Ye Qing was not a man who went back on his word, so when he arrived at the workshop in the afternoon, he called a few girls over.

"I have seen the fabrics you have woven, they are all excellent. Work hard in the future and try to win the award next time."

The girls' faces were filled with excitement. After listening to Ye Qing's encouragement, they couldn't wait to hold the next competition.

Ye Qing asked Ye Yuan to give them the money, and gave them half a day off so that they could send the money back first.

The girls took the money home with pride. Although it was not much, it was the first time they had earned so much money.

After this competition, the workshop was back on track. After Ye Qing handed the workshop over to Ye Yuan, he went to buy new seeds.

Ye Qing asked someone to plant the spices he got this time in the fields. When they were ripe, he fried them in a pan, ground them into powder and added them to the low-end version of thirteen spices.

"Qingya, is your father home?"

Ye Qing put down the broom in his hand and walked to the door, "Uncle Wen Zheng, my father went to the mountain, what's the hurry?"

"I came to borrow your ox cart. Your uncle Wenyuan took my ox cart away to the city to buy things, and your third grandfather fell down."

"Uncle San, did you fall seriously? My car is at home. I can help you pull it out." Ye Qing became worried. People are afraid of falling when they get older.

"No, I'll go and catch the car. When your father comes back, tell him. I'll take your third grandfather to the city clinic first."

The two of them walked towards the backyard while talking. Ye Qing helped to harness the cow and drove the cart out.

Ye Qing was worried, so he followed behind to take a look.

When we arrived at my third uncle's house, the family was full of children and only Uncle Wen Zheng was busy.

"Ouch, ouch."

Ye Qing breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the voice of his third grandfather.

The sound sounded loud and didn't sound like anything was wrong.

"Uncle, don't hug Third Grandpa. This will hurt his legs again. First, put the bed quilt in the car, and then put Third Grandpa on top."

Ye Wenzhen finally reacted and ran back into the house, taking two quilts and spreading them on the car.

"Qingya, Third Grandpa is fine. Don't tell your grandfather. He will be worried if he knows."

"Third Grandpa, it's just a fall. It's nothing serious. Don't worry. Let the doctor take a look. He can straighten the bones." Ye Qingxian comforted him.

Third Grandpa’s legs were in severe pain. He nodded twice and then started crying out in pain again.

Ye Qing saw Ye Wen spreading the quilt and saw a board next to it.

"Uncle, let me lend you a hand. Let Third Grandpa sit on this board and we will carry him to the car."

Ye Wenzhen was also worried about hitting his legs again, so he ran over to get a wooden board, carefully moved Third Grandpa onto the board, and the two of them lifted him into the car.

"Uncle, I'll go to the city with you. You can't handle it alone."

"No need. Your uncle Wenyuan is probably back. I'll ask him to go with me when I meet him. Please help me look after the kids. I've asked someone to call for help." Ye Wenzhen was worried about the kids at home.

Ye Qing looked at his frightened nephews in the yard and stopped talking about going to the city.

"Uncle, don't worry. I'll take care of them. They won't starve."

Ye Wenzhen and Third Grandpa walked further and further away under the worried gazes of several children in the yard.

"Wow~"

Ye Qing retracted her gaze and looked at the crying boy, "Xiaobao, what's wrong? Are you hungry? Auntie will buy you some candy."

Seeing Xiaobao crying so sadly, the other children in the yard also began to rub their eyes.

Ye Qing hurriedly tried to comfort the child, but Xiaobao cried even more sadly.

"Great grandfather, great grandfather."

"Xiaobao, Grandpa will just ask Doctor Lin to take a look. He will buy you some delicious sugar cakes when he comes back."

When Xiaobao heard that his great-grandfather was fine, he turned his attention to the sugar cakes.

"Really? I haven't had sugar cakes for a long time. Will my great grandfather bring some to me?"

Seeing that he had stopped crying, Ye Qing quickly continued to coax him.

"Grandpa likes you the most, he must know that you like sugar cakes the most. As long as you behave yourself, you can have delicious sugar cakes in the evening."

Xiaobao started to ask his older brothers and sisters what kind of candy biscuits they wanted to eat. The others were also distracted and started playing together.

Ye Qing breathed a sigh of relief, finally she managed to coax the child into crying. If several children had cried at the same time, she wouldn't have been able to comfort them.

Ye Qing had just sat on the stool to rest for a while when Ye Zhu and Ye Cheng ran in.

"Qingya, I heard that grandpa fell. Is it serious?"

"He broke his leg, but the rest of his body is fine. I've taken him to the city for treatment." Ye Qing quickly told what he knew.

Ye Zhu and Ye Cheng sat down slowly. They ran so fast that they were out of breath.

Ye Qing watched the two men come back, handed the child to them, and got up to go home.

"Qingya, where have you been?" Li came back from Ye Laoer's house and didn't see Ye Qing.

"I went to Third Grandfather's house. Uncle Wen Zheng came to our house to borrow a bullock cart to take Third Grandfather to the clinic. He broke his leg."

"Oh, he's too old to stand a fall. It must be painful for him to fall like this. Can't Doctor Kobayashi treat him? Why do we have to go to the city?"

"Dr. Kobayashi and his family have all gone to the city. There's no one at home. I had no choice but to go to the city." Ye Qing poured himself a glass of water. He had walked fast just now and his mouth was dry.

Ye Qing finished what he knew and went to the kitchen to cook. Today, Zhou went to the mountain to take care of the fruit trees and has not returned yet.

Ye Qing prepared the meal quickly and even made some extra. He then called Ye Zhu and the others to come and eat together.

The third grandmother took her daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law to the temple to listen to lectures. There were rituals being held in the temple over the next two days, so they would not be back until the evening.

Ye Zhu and several other boys had never cooked before, and they had children at home, so they called them over and had something to eat.

Ping An came back from private school to eat, "Aunt, why do you have so many delicious foods today?"

"Come back safely, go to your third great grandfather's house and ask a few uncles to come over for dinner."

Although Ping An didn't understand, he followed the instructions and ran quickly to call for help.

When Old Man Ye and his sons came back, they were surprised to see Ye Zhu and his friends having dinner at home.

"Ye Zhu, where are your grandparents? Call them over to eat together."

"Grandpa, my grandma and the others went to attend the Dharma Assembly. My grandpa fell down and has not returned from the city yet."

"You fell. How did you fall? What happened to your father and the others?" Old Man Ye had a grim look on his face. He didn't even want to eat and asked Boss Ye to take him to the city to have a look.

"Old man, I asked, and I found out that the third child only has a leg injury, and the rest of his body is fine. Don't worry. Don't let the children worry. Let's talk about it after dinner." Mrs. Li was worried that Old Man Ye was getting anxious and angry because of his old age.

Old Man Ye looked at the children at home looking at him, and sat back down, "Eat."

Hearing this, the children at home didn't dare to make any noise and ate their meals in silence. The great grandfather was too fierce now, and they were a little scared.

Old Man Ye ate a few mouthfuls and couldn't eat any more. He put the bowl down and started questioning Ye Zhu again.

"Who accompanied your grandfather to the city?"

Ye Zhu asked Ye Qing and found out that it was Ye Wen Zheng who delivered it.
