Chapter 6 The Only Relative
"Master, the second lady is here. ”
In the Ye family's old house, Steward Zhao leaned into Old Man Ye's ear and reported softly, his eyes were a little complicated, and he stopped talking.
Ye Lao Yezi is seventy and three this year, because of the rush in his early years, his body has become deteriorating since three years ago, and generally no one will disturb the old man except for major events.
Hearing this, he stopped shaking his body in the rocking chair, slowly opened his eyes, and a light flashed in his somewhat cloudy eyes, and his voice was a little happy.
"This kid, Mingzhu has a birthday, and he can't entertain guests at home, so he came to me for an old man. ”
Steward Zhao paused, and reported what happened to the Ye family today as comprehensively and tactfully as possible, after all, such a big matter, even if he didn't say it, some people would tell Ye Lao Yezi.
"What! good! Very good! Check! Check the identities of those two people immediately, this is not to take my Ye family in your eyes!"
Old Man Ye's eyes widened slightly, he sat up from the chair, and struck the ground three times with his cane, his tone could not hide his anger.
This Ye Mingyu, since she was raised, she obediently didn't cause trouble, and the Ye family didn't lack a bite to eat for her, but now that she has lost the face of the Ye family like this, she can't keep it!
When he thought of the other people in the Ye family, his heart suddenly tightened, and he hurriedly asked.
"What about Mingchen? Has Mingchen been affected? By the way, isn't she here? It should be fine, right. ”
Steward Zhao's expression was also very calm, and he had no feelings for the so-called adopted daughter of the Ye family, so he only bowed slightly and replied softly.
"Sir, don't worry, Miss Mingchen is fine, after the banquet, she was driven over by Young Master Leng Yan. ”
He deliberately accentuated his tone on Young Master Leng, and Old Master Ye's concern about Ye Mingchen's reputation and safety obviously made him not interested in the so-called Young Master Leng, so he just nodded, and couldn't wait to go downstairs on crutches.
As soon as Ye Mingchen entered the mansion, what he saw was the old man's slightly staggering and eager walking towards him on crutches, his eyes were red, and the grievances in his stomach that had already been swallowed came to his heart.
"Grandpa!"
She plunged into Ye Lao Yezi's arms, and rubbed with a little guilt in her attachment.
In her previous life, when she lost the face of the Ye family, everyone gave up on her, but Old Man Ye protected her under her wings unexpectedly, and even left all the shares and property of the Ye family to her.
She couldn't think about it herself, she really thought that the old man treated her like this because she was her illegitimate daughter, and while feeling ashamed, she said a lot of sad things to the old man.
Half a year later, the old man's body took a sharp turn for the worse, and after the old man's death, Ye's father and Ye's mother directly bribed the lawyer and drove her out of this only home.
At that time, she finally knew that only Old Man Ye was the only relative in this world who was truly good for herself.
Ye Mingchen remembered that the old man couldn't let go of her when he was dying, and his heart swelled with endless sourness.
The old man's illness in the previous life was sudden, although all of them said that they were angry with Old Man Ye, but she knew very well that the old man's illness must be indispensable to the handwriting of Ye's father and Ye's mother!
She clenched her hand at the corner of the old man's clothes, a cold glint flashed in her eyes, and she swore secretly.
In this life, she not only has to protect her grandfather's health, but also become her grandfather's pride, so that everyone will no longer mention her grandfather and say that he is a blind old man!
"Good grandson, don't cry, don't cry, look at your little face, what has become of the grievance, don't worry, no matter what, grandpa will protect you. ”
Although Ye Lao Yezi was surprised by his granddaughter's sudden closeness, joy quickly surged into his heart, and he patted Ye Mingchen's back gently, and his tone was firm and natural.
He looked at Ye Mingchen's eyes full of tolerance, but there seemed to be something hidden in the depths, even if Ye Mingchen was the old man's relative, he was too spoiled.
A thought flashed in Ye Mingchen's eyes, but he was quickly thrown aside by her, and rubbed his head against the old man before he spoke sullenly.
"Grandpa, today Ye Mingyu poured me wine, and took me upstairs, and let two men force me, I finally ran out, but my mother not only beat me, but also said that the person upstairs should be me!"
She complained justifiably, and the girl who was calm and indifferent at the banquet is now aggrieved like an eight-hundred-pound fat man.
Old Man Ye was stunned for a moment, patting Ye Mingchen's hand and froze, his wrinkled face was full of regret and annoyance.
"Ye Mingyu, it's really good, but an adopted daughter dares to be so calculating! And Zhang Xi, the poisonous woman, must let Ye Sheng take her off!"
"Grandpa, they don't let me eat enough, they let me work every day, I'm about to take the college entrance examination, so I can't study hard at all, I don't want to go back. ”
Ye Mingchen was buried in the old man's arms, his voice was muffled, and he didn't want the old man to see her eyes, because these things were actually her lying.
In fact, except for the fact that they tried their best to calculate themselves on this day, in the previous eighteen years, in order to deceive their grandfather, they had provided for themselves well, except for raising themselves only with promises.
When she said this, she was just learning from Zhang Xi and them to sue the black.
"Okay, okay, if you don't go back, you won't go back, I'll just say, you have such good genes, you shouldn't have scored so much, it turns out that they delayed you!"
The old man didn't feel that there was anything wrong with giving Ye Mingchen the points that he had been counting down to a few people, but he nodded as if he had suddenly figured it out.
"Grandpa! No! I actually have always had good grades! It's every time I take an exam, Ye Mingyu asks me to fill in her name on the paper, and she fills in my name every time to hand in the blank paper!"
Ye Mingchen didn't lie this time, although the Ye family has always wanted to raise themselves to be cowardly and timid, but their brains can't become stupid.
And in order to prevent themselves from being brilliant, they actually came up with such a way to jointly coax themselves and Ye Mingyu to exchange papers, so that Ye Mingyu became a student bully in everyone's mouth, and he became a straw bag who was useless except for his face.
What's even more ridiculous is that she didn't even think there was anything wrong with doing so in the first place.
"I see! I see! You kid, I told you to come and live, but you didn't listen, you had to live with those bad people with femme fatales, and you didn't tell your grandfather when you were wronged, you really me off. ”
Hearing this, the old man didn't have the slightest suspicion, and he didn't feel it at all, saying that there was anything wrong with his own son and daughter-in-law, but he was distressed and grabbed Ye Mingchen's hand and sat on the sofa, looking at the girl's more and more delicate face, a touch of complexity and nostalgia passed through the depths of his eyes.
Steward Zhao next to him couldn't say anything, he didn't believe Ye Mingchen's so-called grades at all, but he knew better than anyone that the old man doted on Ye Mingchen, so he chose not to say anything.
Ye Mingchen's bright face showed an unpretentious smile, yes, the old man has always wanted to raise herself personally, she is not sensible, she listens to the words of the villain, is bent on pleasing Ye's father and Ye's mother, and resists the old man's selfless love.
