"Xu Sheng came just in time to help my second uncle unload the frame."
"Why."
"Haha, my eldest nephew is so considerate."
Although he was joking, he had something on his mind. Ye Xusheng was keenly aware of his second uncle's stiff smile.
"In a moment, second uncle and second aunt, Xin'er will go to my room first and tell you something."
Ye Laiyin frowned slightly and responded in a deep voice.
Then the two of them remained silent and led the mule cart toward the shed.
The second aunt and Xin'er in the carriage never spoke, which made Ye Xusheng feel a little unsure. However, since his second uncle could still joke with him, it didn't seem serious, so he had better tell his second uncle and second aunt about the family affairs first.
Just be angry and save yourself from being dumbfounded for a while.
Things have priorities, so naturally we should focus on the things in front of us first.
But Ye Xusheng soon stopped thinking so.
When he opened the car curtain and saw his second aunt's red and swollen eyes hugging He Xiner tightly, he was almost shocked out of his mind.
"What's wrong with Xin'er?"
In just this moment, he had already thought of many bad things, and his heart was clenched. Before he could think about it, someone had already jumped into the carriage, and his hand was already touching He Xiner's forehead.
"Cough, cough, it's okay, Xin'er just fell asleep..."
Ye Xusheng let out a breath, but he was so frightened that he thought Xin'er was unconscious.
Is this girl possessed by the God of Sleep? How could she sleep so deeply?
The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he couldn't help but want to smile, but then he felt it was wrong. "Second aunt?"
"Xu Sheng will take your second aunt and Xin'er to your room first. If you have anything to say, talk slowly."
"good."
"Xin'er, Xin'er, wake up."
"..."
Nothing happens.
"This girl can really sleep. Haha, let me hold her while Xu Sheng unloads the truck."
"Why."
Just like that, Ye Laiyin picked up his daughter and led his wife in a hurry to Dongkuoyuan. At the same time, Ye Xusheng also unloaded the frame of the bicycle as quickly as possible and randomly took some hay to feed the mules.
Then he took Dabai and ran back to his yard.
The corridor between the backyard and the front yard is separated from the east courtyard by only one wall. Now the old Ye family's house is large and deep. If you don't pay special attention, you can't hear anything from the front yard or the upper room.
In the main hall of the east cross courtyard, Ye Laiyin and his wife were sitting at the top, Dabai was lying obediently in the corner, Ye Xusheng was busy making a small red clay stove to boil water, and He Xiner was sleeping on the kang in the back room.
After the water was boiled, Ye Laiyin and his wife both washed their hands and faces, and wiped their face with grease under Ye Xusheng's attentive hospitality. Then they calmly sat down to drink tea and prepare to talk.
Both uncle and nephew felt a little unable to speak.
Ye Xusheng was the first to lose his composure and asked his second uncle what happened. There was only one reason why his second aunt could cry like that, and that was Xin'er~
From the bottom of his heart, Ye Laiyin did not want to hide it from him. The eldest nephew was the eldest grandson of the old Ye family. He was going to support the family and would be the future head of the Ye family.
They have no son in their second marriage. Now that he is the daughter's support, she will be counting on her eldest nephew to support her in the future.
Well, it's not just about the future. The eldest nephew has always loved his daughter. When the daughter was bullied, it wasn't just once or twice that the uncle and nephew came together to find someone to settle the score.
Besides, he would not let his father know that his daughter was being plotted against, and even his eldest brother would not say anything about it.
At this time, Ye Laiyin had not noticed that he had regarded his eldest nephew as his backbone, nor did he feel that there was anything wrong with discussing with his eldest nephew, who was a scholar, to make things difficult for others.
