"People need to be flexible and changeable. If others don't want to go to the mountains with you, you can live in the city with others. Have you ever heard of a son-in-law who comes to your house? Find a married woman from a well-off one-daughter family, and you are a strong person.
If a martial arts practitioner has land, as long as he is diligent, can he still starve to death?
Let me tell you, there is such a family in our branch of Yu Mansion. The mother and father depend on each other for life. The family also has more than ten acres of fertile land. The girl was born petite and exquisite. If you are willing, I will ask her mother and father to come over to meet you tomorrow!
"
Ye Congwen saw that Yu Yueyue's fourth aunt was talking more and more vigorously, as if she was serious about it. This was not a good sign. As he was thinking about how to refuse, suddenly a gust of fragrance came over him.
When he looked up, he saw Yu Yueyue saying politely:
"Hello, fourth aunt and fifth aunt. Grandpa said that Ye Congwen is a guest and you have to sit at the same table with him. It just so happens that he has something to ask Ye Congwen. I will take him there first and let him accompany you after dinner.
Talk to relieve boredom."
Yu Yueyue had been well-versed in etiquette since she was a child, and she was deeply loved by Mr. Yu. The whole family was very respectful to her, and when she opened her mouth, they had no choice but to agree.
Seeing that Yu Yueyue had arrived at just the right time, Ye Congwen quickly followed Yu Yueyue to Mr. Yu's table.
"Xiao Congwen, come sit next to Grandpa Yu and tell me the interesting things you did in the apprenticeship camp, so that I, an old man, can get the vitality of young people."
Ye Congwen saw Mr. Yu and the old lady sitting together, with the Yu siblings in the middle and Yu Yueyue's parents opposite him. Without thinking, he sat down next to Yu Benben. He exchanged a few words with the elders before sitting still in his seat.
Waiting for the Yu parents to ask questions.
Seeing that there was still an empty seat at the table, Mr. Yu called Uncle Yu over, and then asked kindly:
"Is the food in the apprentice camp okay? I see that you have grown a lot. You used to be the same height as my granddaughter, but just now I saw that you seem to be half a head taller than her. The age of fifteen or sixteen is the time to grow taller.
But don’t go hungry. If you want to eat in the apprentice camp, just tell your sister Yueyue. If a martial artist doesn’t have a strong body, how can he improve his level?"
Ye Congwen nodded in agreement. Just as he was about to speak, Uncle Yu said first:
"Yueyue, have you used up the box of gold coins that grandpa gave you? If you don't have enough money, just ask me. Third uncle still has some savings. As long as you follow the right path, I will support you unconditionally."
"Thank you, third uncle. The money grandpa gave us is enough. Ye Congwen - after all, the food expenses for the three of us are included in the tuition."
Yu Yueyue saw that her third uncle's eyes were burning and quite unkind, and she couldn't figure out what his intentions were, so she had to answer cautiously.
"Oh? I've known since I was little that my niece is good at managing money. Let's show it to everyone to see how much you have left after one semester, so that you can set an example for your extravagant cousins!"
Ye Congwen felt quite bad. Uncle Yu was trying to make use of the topic! He must have listened to all the random words he made up. He was trying to punish him! He turned around and glanced at the direct sons of the Yu Mansion who were scattered in every corner.
, all of them looked at Yu Yueyue with wide eyes, unconvinced.
"Third uncle, let's forget it. Today is a great day. It's rare for the whole family to get together, so why not eat first."
Yu Yueyue knew the virtues of her cousins. If she followed them, her third uncle would definitely use the topic to reprimand them. If a quarrel broke out, Ye Congwen would probably laugh.

But the young masters of the Yu Mansion are not vegetarians. The consumption of the Demon Hunter Apprentice Camp is astronomical. I heard that the Lin Mansion next door emptied the Lin Mansion’s family fortune in order to train Lin Xiaohu and the three brothers! I thought that Yu Yueyue would do nothing.
Calculating carefully, if three people spend a hundred gold coins, they will definitely not have a few left. If she spends it all, Uncle Yu will no longer be qualified to make irresponsible remarks in front of everyone.
Smart people quickly spoke up to help:
"Yueyue, just take it out and let us open our eyes. We brothers really want to learn from you how to live a prudent life."
Yu Yueyue refused again and again. Dozens of cousins became more and more interested as they talked. They all expected that Yu Yueyue had spent all the gold coins so they did not dare to take them out. They all said excitedly:
"Sister Yue, could it be that you also spent all your money lavishly and were afraid that everyone would laugh at you? Don't worry, you go to the apprentice camp to practice for the future of the family. At worst, grandpa will take your money next semester.
If the funding is doubled, we’ll be fine if we spend less!”
Yu Yueyue saw that these cousins began to sarcastically mock the old man for favoring her. In order to set the record straight, she reached out and took out the box containing the gold coins from the jade storage. When she pressed the button, the lid slowly popped open, and the golden gold coins inside were all neat and tidy.
Standing on little ground.
"This, this, this! Why are none of them useful? Don't you even have to pay tuition?"
Everyone was shocked and found it unbelievable. Uncle Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly. It seemed that what Ye Congwen said was all true. This niece was good at everything, but she just followed her mother's bad habits of being a miser. He stood up and scolded with a straight face.
road:
"Yu Yueyue, you are too shameless. Entering the apprentice camp to practice is a matter of life and death for our Yu family. How can you lose a big deal for a small amount? You save all the money and don't spend it. You don't have enough elixir. You three take it.
What increases strength?
No wonder Yu Benben and Ye Congwen have not made any progress at all. You have kept all the co-authors together. Are you trying to save a dowry? Don’t worry, even if your parents are stingy and don’t give you any dowry, I
Third uncle will definitely give you all his savings over the years. Are twenty gold bars enough?"
Everyone was shocked. After a long time, it turned out that the third uncle was looking for trouble with Yu Yueyue! This was premeditated! The Young Master of the Yu Mansion quickly got out of the way, and everyone sat back to their original positions and started to eat. Listen.
When I saw that Uncle Yu still had twenty gold bars in savings, everyone was thinking about how to interact with him more in the future.
"Yu Laosan, why are you so crazy? Who are you to be stingy? The two of them are not as talented in cultivation as Yueyue, and naturally their progress cannot keep up with my daughter. Can I blame my daughter for this?
My daughter's body of a daughter is short of twenty gold bars of yours? Yu Yueyue, tell your third uncle the conditions of your refusal to marry, so that his bad temper will not flare up again and he will bury people indiscriminately."
When Lian Caihong saw that his daughter had been wronged, he immediately came out to defend himself. Lian Caihong had accumulated authority in the Yu Mansion for a long time. Once he got angry, everyone except the old man, the old lady and Uncle Yu would be frightened into silence.
"Mom, we don't talk to each other, and my third uncle scolded me because I didn't know what was going on. It's not like you don't know that he is impatient. You are my sister-in-law, why should you be like him?
Let me tell the truth, these gold coins were actually won by Ye Congwen from martial arts competitions. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Yu Benben.”
In order to resolve the conflict, Yu Yueyue did not care about Ye Congwen's plans. It was business to solve the problem at hand first. Besides, it was also a matter of gaining face for him. She wanted to show off to her family.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Everyone looked at the calm Ye Congwen, unable to figure out the reason, and then turned to look at Yu Benben.
"Bengben, don't panic, just tell the truth. With grandpa here, no one will make things difficult for you."
When Mr. Yu saw the child's frightened expression, he thought he was afraid, so he quickly comforted him.
Yu Benben secretly glanced at Ye Congwen and saw that he had no objection, so he said:
"Brother Congwen is a self-employed practitioner with the most powerful fighting ability in the entire martial arts camp. Every time he competes with others, he charges a gold bar. After one semester, he pays for all the expenses of the three of us. He also uses
The gold bars were exchanged for a lot of elixirs for Sister Yueyue and I to take. Unfortunately, my talent is average and I have never been able to advance to the perfection realm of martial arts. However, I have a hunch that I will definitely advance to the perfection realm within a month at most!"
"Little Benben, are you lying? Why is he still at the perfection level of a martial arts master if he is so powerful? The guards said that he had a tie with his third uncle half a year ago, and his third uncle is a master of the perfection level. How do you explain that?
?”
"I'll explain this myself. You can win a gold bar in a fight. Where can you find such a good thing? If I advance to the Grandmaster realm, which apprentice in the martial arts realm will challenge me for a duel? They are not
Fool!
Brothers, do you think this is a gift? There are white flowers - they are golden gold bars. If you don't want them, you think I'm stupid! Brothers, I'm getting older every day, I have no business acumen, and I don't have family dividends, so I won't take the opportunity to save.
How can I get a wife after ordering a betrothal gift?
As for improving my strength, I am not yet sixteen years old, so I will have plenty of time in the future."
Seeing that Yu Benben couldn't resist, Ye Congwen took the words and said casually.
When Yu Yueyue saw that Ye Congwen was telling lies in a coherent and reasonable manner, she was speechless towards him. What was even more incredible was that her cousins all looked around Ye Congwen as if they had discovered a treasure, and kept asking questions.
"Brother Congwen, what is the method of playing gold bars for your martial arts competition? Is it two-for-one or ten-for-one, with or without a buying code?"
This stumped Ye Congwen. He didn’t even know what a casino looked like, so how could he understand these professional terms? He had to answer honestly:
"We are all rough guys who practice martial arts. We don't have that many tricks. We always pay one for one. No matter how much you dare to bet, others will bet as much as you dare. All gold bars are delivered on the spot, and the gambling funds are placed in the hands of the middleman. Whoever wins gets it. Yu Yueyue
She often acts as a middleman to collect money. If you don’t believe me, you can ask her.”
Twenty brothers from the Yu Mansion caught Yu Yueyue and asked for a long time. When they got the answer, they were all excited. According to Yu Benben's introduction, this guy is an individual practitioner. After taking the elixir, his strength can be doubled.
Aren’t those who are certain to win? One by one they asked tentatively:
"Brother Ye, you are so good, wouldn't you make a fortune in one semester? How much money have you won? How much has the most you won in one session?"
"How can you win money every day? People are not invincible. Martial arts competitions are very physically demanding. I have to rest for at least two or three days after every fight. When it comes to how much I have won at most in one session, I remember it was forty gold bars!"
Hearing the forty gold bars, the Young Master of the Yu Mansion and even Yu Yueyue's grandparents and parents gasped in shock. This was the profit of the Yu Mansion for half a year! The market was not good this year, and the Yu Mansion only earned a total of forty gold bars.
The gold bars were only half of those in previous years. Unexpectedly, Ye Congwen won them back in just one competition.
