"Uncle Wanxi, adults can make a fool of themselves by eating whatever they want, but children can't do it. You can't starve your children even if you are hungry. Uncle Wanxi, there are five children in my family, the youngest is only three years old, and they are hungry every day. Crying at home, can you lend me a few catties of food and treat me like a poor child?"

"Grandpa Wanxi, there are only three children in your family, and you can't eat so much food, why don't you take out half of it and lend us a few catties?"

"That brat in my family was so hungry that he cried for half the night yesterday."

"Hey, my son is the same. His hungry head is bigger than his body. I'm not afraid of your jokes. A few nights ago, looking at my son's big head, I was so distressed that I shed tears."

"Uncle Wanxi, look..."

Xiao Cao looked at it and quit, "No, I borrowed the food from you. What will my family eat and drink the northwest wind?"

"Auntie, if you leave fifty catties of grain, it's enough for the New Year."

"Auntie, this is life-saving food. We all come from the village. You won't watch us starve to death, will you?"

A group of men suddenly surrounded Xiao Cao, begging and threatening.

Ye Youran smiled.

He cursed secretly, "It serves you right."

Xiao Cao's eyes became impatient, and she waved away the crowd, "If you don't borrow it, it's also my family's life-saving food, and you won't borrow a catty."

"Uncle Wanxi?"

"I……"

Li Wanxi muttered for a long time, but did not agree.

He dare not promise.

This family, before Xiao Cao entered the door, he was always in charge of the house, and after Xiao Cao entered the door, it became Xiao Cao's head.

Everyone saw Li Wanxi's embarrassment, some spat and left cursing, while some stayed and wanted to take advantage.

Regardless of Xiao Cao's crying and struggling, Aunt Ye had already dragged the person away from the entrance of the cellar. Only then did Ye Dacai and Ye Dawen enter the cellar and carried out two mopan pumpkins.

Aunt Ye and Mistress Ye entered Xiao Cao's room again, searching for jade pendants.

"Mistress, I can't find it, what should I do?"

Several people searched for a long time, and it was already midnight, but they still couldn't find it.

Mistress Ye said, "If you can't find it, then report it to the officials and let the guards come and look for it."

Li Wanxi became impatient, "Xiaoyou, no matter what, she is your aunt, you must not send your aunt to prison, otherwise, this family will be broken up."

"This is your family's business, Li Wanxi, my wife told you that without the jade pendant, the Li family and the Ye family would no longer be in-laws, but enemies."

Upon hearing this, Li Wanxi looked nervously at Mrs. Cao.

No matter how powerful a village woman is, she is also afraid of being involved in the government.

Finally, Xiao Cao muttered for a long time, and finally revealed the whereabouts of the jade pendant.

"Did you?" Mistress Ye was furious, "Where's the money you pawned?"

"In the……"

After a long time, she finally explained that the money was taken away by her mother, saying that it was for her nephew to marry a wife.

Mistress Ye immediately led her back to Yejia Village.

Ye Youran originally wanted to take the old Mrs. Cao home to raise her, but was stopped by Mistress Ye.

"You are still a child yourself, how do you take care of old Cao?"

"It's not that she has no son and daughter-in-law, and she doesn't need one of your children to take care of her."

"Xiaoyou, you have to remember, it's easy to invite God, but it's hard to send God off."

Ye Youran had no choice but to grit her teeth and get on the donkey cart.

A group of people went back to Yejia Village. That night, Ye Youran was left in the second room to sleep on the kang with Mistress Ye.

Early the next morning, Ye Dacai and his wife went to Cao's house with Mistress Ye.

Ye Dawen took Ye Youran to the pawn shop.
