Mrs. Wang was dumbfounded by such a strange thing, but she couldn't say anything wrong about her brother-in-law in front of her eldest nephew. After thinking for a long time, she choked out a sentence:
"How come I didn't see their carriage?"
"Pfft~"
He Xiner, who listened to the story for a long time, was amused by her mother. Her mother's focus was a bit biased!
"Hey, my daughter is awake..."
Hearing He Xiner's laughter, Ye Xusheng jumped up and ran into the inner room like a whirlwind. The moment the cotton curtain blocking his sight was lifted, the smiling He Xiner suddenly appeared in front of him. The young man suddenly said
Then his eyes turned red.
The little girl he held in his heart was almost plotted against, and he felt heartbroken just thinking about it.
"Cousin."
"Xin'er..."
The slightly hoarse voice, the low call, contained infinite affection and distress. He Xiner was startled, and then realized that her cousin knew about the fat woman and was worried about her~
Ye Laiyin's hearty laughter came from outside, "My dear, come out to drink water and talk."
"Why."
"Hey, the little lazy cat finally woke up~"
"Mom, I'm not a lazy cat..."
"Ha ha……"
The bad things are all over, and now everyone is in a good mood, especially Ye Xusheng, who feels happy whenever he looks at He Xiner. He tilts his lips slightly and smiles slightly, pouring water for He Xiner to wash her hands and face.
Watching her busy at work, Ye Laiyin and his wife felt so comforted.
While He Xiner was applying facial makeup with a smile, she asked Ye Xusheng her mother's strange question, "Where did the carriage go before my cousin said it?"
This question made several people laugh.
"I actually heard the maid say that the groom had gone back to the county town to report that he was safe."
"Oh~"
This question was purely asked for her curious mother, and He Xiner was not interested.
"We have a new family member, how do we prepare dinner for the night? Do you want to go to the room and ask?"
Mrs. Wang is a very responsible person and started to take care of her chores again.
"That woman did it at noon."
"Chi~"
Ye Laiyin was disdainful.
"Hey, my grandma has long been looking forward to having a maid to take care of her, and now she gets her wish!"
"How can you, a child, talk?"
Although this was the case, it was inappropriate for He Xiner, as her granddaughter, to say this. Wang scolded her and glared at her quietly.
It's just that this glance has no power, which makes He Xiner feel happy.
Her mother thought she was careless in what she said in front of her cousin, but her mother didn't know that she and her cousin talked about everything behind his back, and there were even more profound rants than this.
"My cousin said that the woman had a very happy conversation with my grandma. I guess my grandma must have benefited from her."
Ye Laiyin continued to sneer coldly. No matter how much he looked down on his mother's actions, he couldn't say anything in front of his daughter and nephew.
Wang continued to stare.
He Xiner bared her teeth and smiled.
There were no outsiders, so there was no need to hide her words, so she didn't have to bother.
"My third uncle, Lao Shizi, has made such a big fuss. He is both a mother-in-law and a maid. Suddenly there are four more people. Where are we going to stay at night?"
"He's not going to take over the eldest cousin's house, is he?"
Although the old Ye family's house is large and there are many rooms that can be lived in, they are all occupied. Even if there are empty rooms, the one in the upper house, in addition to the bedroom where old Qian lives, there is also a single room, which is not set in the main hall.
It is a private room, but it is not suitable for servants to live in, and Ye Laicai and his wife have no serious place to rest.
In fact, the most suitable place for their master and servant to live is the west wing, which has five suites, enough for four of them.
But it was Dafang’s private property, and now Ye Guihua lives there.
The three main rooms in the east cross courtyard were paid for by the father-in-law. They were originally the wedding rooms prepared by Lao Yetou for Ye Laicai, but he did not say it clearly. At that time, he was still pregnant with Ye Laicai.
He was so angry that he arranged for his eldest grandson to live here.
The east cross courtyard is quiet and suitable for Ye Xusheng to study.
