As they spoke, the Three Elders unexpectedly shed tears, their legs trembled, and they slowly knelt down...
"Three Elders, what are you doing?" Ye Shikai hurriedly dismounted, helping the old man up.
"General Ye, if it weren't for your generous help, the village would have had no reserves. If a drought hit, I'm afraid... we would all starve to death. General Ye, please accept my bow," said the Three Elders while sobbing as he knelt on the ground again. Ye Shikai pulled him up once more.
"Three Elders, today is my joyous day; if you continue, you'll spoil the joy."
"General Ye's benevolence and virtue will never be forgotten by me and all the villagers of Shangshui Village."
"Regardless, Ling'er is from Shangshui Village. Since I'm marrying her, I can't just stand by and watch her family starve," Ye Shikai explained. After the Three Elders calmed down, he mounted his horse again.
"General Ye, you are truly the savior of Shangshui Village."
