Chapter 92: 92 Zhao ran away

As expected, Ye Jiu heard the calling of her family before she even reached home.

Those calls touched her heart.

“Ma, I’m back,” Ye Jiu responded loudly.

In the dark night, Ye Jiu could see a not-so-tall figure running towards her on the white snowy ground, who immediately hugged her, “My dear child, where did you run off to? You have no idea how worried your mother was…”

“Ma, it’s my fault, I got carried away playing and forgot the time,” Ye Jiu admitted her mistake right away, then, lifted the fish she still had in her hand, “Ma, look, I caught a fish, let’s go home and have fish for dinner, okay?”

“You silly girl, even if you wanted to eat fish, you could have just told me so your fourth brother could catch it for you. If that didn’t work out, we could have bought one instead. In this freezing weather, why on earth would you go fishing all by yourself?” He Shi scolded her, but her tone was filled with worry and fear.

...

Just as she had said, in this ice and snow, Ye Jiu going out to fish alone–what if she had fallen into an ice hole!?

Thinking about it, He Shi felt she couldn’t bear the consequences.

After Ye Jiu comforted He Shi a few more times, the rest of the Ye Family also came over, all asking where she had been all afternoon.

Ye Jiu brushed them off with the excuse of catching fish, and then the whole group finally headed home.

Out of concern, the family hadn’t eaten dinner yet, and as soon as they entered the house, He Shi sent Zhang Shi and Zhao Shi to cook.

The day before yesterday they had buns, last night they had bone soup with white noodles, and now they had a fish. Despite the busy afternoon searching, the straight improvement in the quality of their meals provided some consolation.

Inside the house, Ye Jiu initially wanted to check on how the molds were coming along, but He Shi kept her, going on and on with reminders not to go out alone again, leaving Ye Jiu with no chance to escape.

It wasn’t until after dinner, soothing He Shi and Old Man Ye to sleep first, that Ye Jiu found an opportunity to sneak out.

Outside, the originally smooth stone slabs had already been chiseled into an array of oval shapes. Ye Jiu ran her hand over them, feeling each part of the mold smoothed out perfectly.

Gaosheng came out of the house and, seeing Ye Jiu standing there, said, “What do you think, little sister? Are the molds up to par?”

“They’re great, I didn’t expect you to finish so quickly. You’ve worked hard, fourth brother,” Ye Jiu said with a smile.

Gaosheng scratched his head in his straightforward way, “It’s not just my doing. Wenqing and Wenyu helped a lot too.”

Ye Jiu then remembered the incident of Zhao Shi leaving home that day and couldn’t help but ask with concern, “How’s second sister-in-law? Wenyu went after her today, right? Has she come back?”

Gaosheng rolled his eyes, “It would be better if that woman didn’t come back. The family hasn’t even split yet, and dad and mom are still here, but she already dares to complain about her younger sister-in-law eating for free. It’s a good thing she ran off quickly today. Mom said today that even if big brother comes back, we’re not to take Zhao Shi back. Otherwise, they’ll be driven out. That would be exactly what they want, letting them go and enjoy life on their own.”

What Ye Jiu was worried about was not Zhao Shi, but whether He Shi had gotten so angry it affected her health, so she quickly asked, “Then how’s mom? She didn’t get angry, did she?”

“No, mom said that if Zhao Shi wants to leave then to let her go. Our family doesn’t lack a daughter-in-law who can’t stand her younger sister-in-law and is unfaithful,” Gaosheng said before suddenly laughing somewhat shyly, then added, “Wang Family’s sister-in-law came over this afternoon and talked in the house with mom for quite a while. When mom came out to see Wang Family’s sister-in-law off, she seemed quite happy.”
