Chapter 3: The Ye Family Before the Storm

"Hello, I was sent by the Xu family. My master has something to tell you old lady about something, please let me in. A middle-aged man stood in front of the gate of the Ye family and said to the gatekeeper.

In the backyard of the Ye family, there are two little boys and a little girl playing games. These two boys are the two sons of Ye Ting, the head of the family, one is named Ye Yanzhe and the other is called Ye Yanxiu. That little girl is Lin Yuyou, the daughter of the Ye family's housekeeper, and Lin Yuyou's family has always served the Ye family.

"Words and philosophy, words and cultivation. Let's play at home!" Lin Yuyou said.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, we've played house. Ye Yanzhe said.

"Hey~ I don't want to play at home! That's a game played by girls, but I'm a boy. How can you play this game?" Ye Yanxiu said dissatisfiedly.

"No, no! Study, play with me, big deal... It's a big deal, I'll let you be my husband. Lin Yuyu blushed and said awkwardly.

"Why do you want Yan Xiu to be your husband? I'm going to be your husband. If you don't agree, then I won't play anymore!" Ye Yanzhe said a little angrily.

"Don't, you don't play, then no one will play with me. Woo woo ~ I want to play with the two of you. Woo woo woo~" Lin Yuyou cried as she spoke.

Ye Yanzhe and Ye Yanxiu didn't know what to do to react for a while, they just stood stupidly and looked at her crying.

At this time, a very beautiful woman appeared. She is Xu Ru. Looking at the three little children in a triangle, I was a little speechless.

"Really, starting a love triangle at such a young age. I really don't know who my two precious sons look like. The woman muttered to herself with some amusement.

"Mom!" Ye Yanxiu, who found that Xu Ru had arrived, broke the embarrassment of the three of them not speaking.

"Really, you two are making Yuyou cry again? If you always make a girl cry, you won't be able to get a daughter-in-law. Xu Ru tapped his fingers on Ye Yanzhe and Ye Yanxiu's heads respectively, and then turned to Lin Yuyou and said, "Yuyou, don't cry if you're obedient." If a girl cries all the time, she will be hated by the boys. Only girls who love to laugh will have more people like it. Xu Ru touched Lin Yuyou's head and said.

"Really?" Lin Yuyou asked.

"Of course," Xu Ru replied.

"That's... That... Do you also like girls who love to laugh?" Lin Yuyou turned to Ye Yanxiu and said. "Of course, but my favorite is you. Before Yan Xiu could answer, Ye Yanzhe rushed to speak.

"Well, my brother is right, it's still girls who love to laugh are prettier. When I grow up, I must marry the most beautiful and smiling person as my wife. Ye Yanxiu said thoughtlessly.

At this time, a subordinate came over and said to Xu Ru: "Madam, the Xu family is here, and the old lady asked me to call you." ”

"Well, I know, you go down first! Yan Zhe, Yan Xiu. Is it okay to go with your mother to grandma?" Xu Ru said to his son after finishing speaking.

"Okay, okay! I'm going. Ye Yanzhe said.

"I'm also... I'm not going, I'm still going to play here!" Ye Yanxiu, who was about to go together, suddenly grabbed his sleeve by Lin Yuyou.

"Okay, then you're here and you're waiting for some of you're coming to us. Got it?" Xu Ru said.

"yes, I see. I'll go find my mom in a minute. Ye Yanxiu said happily.

Xu Ru took Ye Yanzhe's hand and left the courtyard.

"Yuyou, Yuyou, what are we going to play? Now my mother and brother are gone. Ye Yanxiu said excitedly to Lin Yuyou.

"Yan Xiu, I love to cry now, but don't hate me. I'll try to laugh. If... If I become smiling, can you always be with me in the future!" Lin Yuyu said with red eyes, grabbing Ye Yanxiu's cuffs.

"Oh! I know, I'll be with you. Shall we play a treasure hunt?" replied Ye Yanxiu. "Really, then you have to be responsible for me!" Lin Yuyu looked at Ye Yanxiu with sparkling eyes and said.

"Oh, don't worry, I'll take care of it. Shall we go there now? Or let's go treasure hunting in the forest. For Yan Xiu, who was bent on playing games, he didn't know what he had just promised.

"Hmm!" Lin Yuyou heard Ye Yanxiu's answer and happily followed him to hunt for treasures.

Ye Family Hall.

In the hall, the old lady of the Ye family sat on the sofa and waited, Xu Ru and Ye Yanzhe. Seeing their arrival, he said to Xu Ru: "Xiaoru, just now your father sent someone over and said let's go first." Your mom is probably going to be too busy. ”

"Well, that's good. Yan Zhe and I went over to help first. You don't have to worry about it. Xu Ru said.

"What are these words, although I am not related to your father by blood, he is also my brother. My sister went to help my brother prepare the birthday banquet, so what's the trouble," said the old lady.

"I'm not afraid of you're in trouble, since you're not afraid of trouble, what else can I say? Besides, if you go and help, I'm too late to be happy. My mom didn't know anything about these things. I don't have that much experience, so if you go, you can teach me!" Xu Ru said.

"Well, that's what it sounds like. By the way, how can you only be here as long as Yan Zhe is here?" said the old lady.

"Grandma, grandma, my brother is still playing with Yuyou!" Ye Yanzhe, who seemed to be a little dissatisfied with the two of them still playing, said before Xu Ru spoke.

"Haha~ Those two little dolls really love to play! Anyway, sooner or later, they will have to go to the birthday banquet together, so it is better to call the two of them over and go together!" said the old lady.

"Okay. I'll tell them to go with me. Xu Ru said.

On the path to the forest, Ye Yanxiu and Lin Yuyou walked one after the other. Seeing that he was about to reach the woods, Lin Yuyou's father suddenly appeared at this time.

"Young Master Yan Xiu, where are you going, Yuyou, now Madame is looking for you!"

"Uncle Lin, I'm going to take Yuyou to the forest to hunt for treasure!" Ye Yanxiu said

"That's right, Dad Yanxiu is going to take me on a treasure hunt. Yan Xiu also said that he would always be with me. Regarding what Ye Yanxiu said just now, Lin Yuyou couldn't wait to share it with his father.

"Alas~ Don't go to the forest to hunt for treasure yet. Come with me to the hall first!" said Steward Lin.

"Hey~ I don't want to go to the hall, there's nothing fun to do anywhere. Ye Yanxiu said dissatisfiedly.

"Young Master Yan Xiu, if you don't go to the hall, you will be scolded by your mother. It doesn't matter if that happens. Then you can go wherever you want. But I'm going to take it with you. Steward Lin said.

"Ah~ my mom is there! Then I'd better go! Mom is very angry. Ye Yanxiu said helplessly.

Under the leadership of Steward Lin, Ye Yanxiu and Lin Yuyou soon came to the hall. At this time, not only the old lady and Xu Ru were in the hall, but also Ye Ting came.

"Yan Xiu, Yu You, will you go to the Xu family with us later?" said the old lady.

"No, I don't want to go. I still have something to do!" Ye Yanxiu said.

"What can you do with a little brat, you're going to go sooner or later anyway. Xu Ru said.

"Don't don't go, don't go!" Ye Yanxiu said.

"Really. Why don't you let me worry?" Xu Ru said.

"Okay, okay, since Yan Xiu doesn't want to go so early. Then let him come with his grandfather and his father in the evening. The old lady said.

"Well, just let him go with me later!" Ye Ting said.

"Old lady, it doesn't matter if the young master Yan Xiu goes later. But my daughter Yuyou doesn't have to go. After all, we are inferior. Steward Lin said.

"What are these words, whether it's you or Yuyou. We've never been treated as human beings. I treat Yuyou like my daughter-in-law. You've saved me many, many times, and you're no longer a subordinate. I'm going to be mad if you say that. Ye Ting said.

"Yes, Ye Ting said yes. What does it matter if I take my future granddaughter-in-law here. You don't have to shirk it. Wait until the evening when you want to marry too, let Yuyou accompany us first!" said the old lady.

"Okay then, you can listen to the old lady and the lady, do you know?" said Steward Lin. "Well, I know!" Although I wanted to be with Yan Xiu, my father said so, so I had to agree.

"Uncle Lin, don't worry, I will take care of Yuyou. Ye Yanzhe patted his chest and said.

"Then please ask Young Master Yanzhe. Steward Lin said with a smile.

After the old lady and her party left the Ye family. The Ye family uncle sent someone to inform Ye Ting and the core stewards of the Ye family. Say there is something important to say.

"Yan Xiu, you go to your small courtyard to play. Dad will come back and look for you, do you know?" Ye Ting said to Ye Yanxiu.

"Well, okay. Dad, go get busy with you!" Ye Yanxiu said.

Ye Ting looked at his son who couldn't wait to play, so he could only shake his head helplessly.

Looking at Ye Ting, who was walking away, Ye Yanxiu shouted happily: "Great, now you can go treasure hunting." Then he ran towards the forest path.
