Chapter 264: 264 acted without proper restraint Chapter 264: 264 acted without proper restraint Zhao knew that her own action had displeased Ye Gaoshui, so she hurriedly admitted her mistake before he could scold her, “Oh, look at me not knowing my own strength, I really just wanted to pat her lightly, I didn’t realize my hand would accidentally be so heavy.”

Ye Gaoshui was well aware of Zhao’s temperament, but, for important matters, he was in charge, like the issue of the twenty taels of silver. However, for these little things, he just had to let her be.

“Going forward, be nicer to the child, don’t always be so rough with your hands.” Ye Gaoshui said, glancing at Ye Qingzhi, “Qingzhi is still a child, from now on don’t let her do too much work, and don’t be so lazy, do the work around the house that’s meant for you.”

“I understand,” Zhao said.

Only then did Ye Gaoshui notice Ye Qingzhi’s actions and asked, “What are you doing with your clothes now?”

Ye Qingzhi stood there, meekly nodding, while Zhao answered for her, “Mother is feeling unwell and wanted Qingzhi to help with serving tea and water. I thought, since the child wasn’t busy anyway, I might as well let her go and keep her grandmother company in the main house.”

“That’s fine, since your grandmother has asked for you, you should go, and it’s about time you learned needlework yourself. See if your grandmother can teach you, back in her younger days, her needlework was ranked among the best in our village, no worse than your great aunt’s,” Ye Gaoshui said gently.

As for Zhao teaching these skills, Ye Gaoshui had never considered it. Zhao was good at physical tasks, but as for craftwork, after being scolded by He for so many years, she had only learned to make clothes.

Reluctant to look at the brand-new fabric in the cabinet, Ye Qingzhi ultimately didn’t dare reach out for it again.

So, taking her own two tattered pieces of clothing, Ye Qinghua walked to the main house. Her heart felt not a twinge of reluctance, but rather relief.

Ye Qingzhi, holding her two pieces of clothing, went to the main house and stood on the ground, watching He sew something. Seeing that He had no intention of talking to her, she neatly placed her clothes on the kang bed.

Then, Ye Qingzhi picked up the broom from the ground and began sweeping up the threads that He had just discarded.

He was actually a tidy old lady, keeping her room neat and tidy, the table surface free from dust. Ye Qingzhi was just trying to show that she was diligent, afraid that He would send her back to the side room.

Ye Qingzhi knew that here, He might disdain her, but she wouldn’t hit her. During the time Zhao was away, Ye Qingzhi followed He every day, helping with chores.

Plus, she had her little aunt here, who she felt was the kindest person to her in the family.

Just then, Ye Jiu came in from outside and saw Ye Qingzhi sweeping the floor, he casually praised, “Qingzhi is really diligent.”

Ye Jiu felt that this was something she could not match. Perhaps because she had lived too roughly in her previous life, so even after so many years, she had not changed her habits. Every morning when she woke up, her first thought was never to wipe the table or sweep the floor, but to ponder over how much money she had and what she should do next.

It was only at times like these that she realized she was still a little miser at heart.

Ye Qingzhi smiled in response and then felt that she could be even more diligent.

She could work, but she also needed praise, something no one in the side room had ever given her. Only her eldest brother would occasionally show concern for a moment, but he rarely helped her.

Even her daily busyness might have become so customary to them that they took it for granted.

As it neared afternoon, the sound of the donkey cart outside stirred, and the smile on Ye Jiu’s face suddenly brightened.
