After transmigrating, the laid-back Ye Yunting became the youngest son of a family whose father was a licentiate.
His mother died young, and his father raised three sons by opening a school and teaching.
Ye's father wanted his sons to succeed more than anything. His greatest wish in life was for them to one day pass the imperial examinations with flying colors.
But his eldest son was set on learning martial arts, spending all day practicing with spears and cudgels. His second son was dead set on going into business, and not even ten oxen could drag him away from it.
Wiping away his tears, Ye's father placed his last hope in his youngest son.
