Chapter 34 Chapter 34
Didn't he know that this kid was a guest at home?
Mayor Ye raised his head and said to his son who walked out of the room on the second floor: "Jiacheng, come down and peel apples for the guests." β
On the edge of the corridor on the second floor, Ye Jiacheng looked in a certain direction and answered softly: "...... Oh. β
Mayor Ye beckoned Ye Jiacheng downstairs, and then explained to everyone: "The dog just came back today." Ye's father did not tell Ye Jiacheng that he flew back from City A, and the main Yi Pei was from City A. Different identity relationships, some things are unintentional, and they can still be sensitive. Whether as a father or the mayor, he didn't want Yi Pei to take extra care of Jiacheng after he returned to City A because of his relationship. Fortunately, his son has never messed around and does things in a measured manner, which is what he is most satisfied with Jiacheng since he was a child.
Tonight's banquet is also Jiacheng Tiyì, Yimao Real Estate is currently in the construction of this piece belongs to the conscience of the industry, since it is determined that Yimao Real Estate has entered Qinglin City, there are friends from afar, and it is not too much to entertain with chicken millet meals. Mayor Ye was sipping tea, and as for Jiacheng deliberately flying back today, there must be other reasons in this, maybe something else.
Yi Pei also took a sip of tea and remembered one thing: if Yi Qindong agreed to Ye Jiacheng's conditions a while ago, he and Ye Jiacheng would have been in an antagonistic relationship when they met like this today.
Ye Jiacheng went downstairs slowly, stepping on the solid wood stairs with the rubber bottom, and the sound was neither light nor heavy.
Shi Jian lowered her eyes, she should be the one who paid the most attention to Ye Jiacheng here, and noticed the sound of his footsteps coming downstairs. The apple in his hand turned and turned, and he couldn't help but think in his heart: When did Ye Jiacheng come back? Hasn't he been busy lately? The last time we talked on the phone, Ye Jiacheng hid the identity of the mayor's son from her.
Hmph, rare!
Ye Jiacheng came over. She put down the apple and stood up with Zhang Kai. Ye Jiacheng walked next to his father, as if he only intended to play the role of a good son, he took the initiative to stretch out his hand to Yi Pei: "Mr. Yi, I have admired my name for a long time." β
Yi Pei shook Ye Jiacheng back, faced Ye Jiacheng's greetings, smiled, and replied to Ye Jiacheng: "Ye Gong, I have also admired the name for a long time." β
Many people call Ye Jiacheng "Ye Gongzi", and people who don't know Ye Jiacheng usually only see him as the mayor and son. Yi Pei has always been meticulous in dealing with things, and he called Ye Jiacheng like this, not only without any flattery, but also a man's respect and appreciation for another man. At the same time, it shows that he already knows that Ye Jiacheng works in City A.
However, fathers in the world love to beat their sons. Father Ye was no exception, he smiled and said to Yi Pei: "Mr. Yi is exaggerating, Jia is still young, how can he be famous." β
In Father Ye's self-humility, there are still two points of pride.
It seems that no matter what age Ye Jia is, his father-in-law's attitude towards him is almost the same. Three points of humility, three points of pride, three points of helplessness, and one point of life.
Yi Pei smiled faintly, followed Father Ye's words, and spoke: "Young Master Ye is already very young and promising. β
Yi Pei's voice Ye Gongzi, in a certain sense, really raised Ye Jiacheng. After two sentences, both father-in-law and Ye Jiacheng smiled.
Shi Jian glanced sideways, but still looked at Ye Jiacheng. Ye Jiacheng turned around with a smile, and shook hands with Zhang Kai. He walked over, and the distance between the two narrowed, and Shi Jian could see his military cotton shoes when he looked down. Ye Jiacheng seemed to like this pair of military cotton shoes very much, and he had to wear them every time he went home, but later they wore out, so he specially found someone to go to the countryside to buy a pair of similar ones.
He also recommended it to her, sue sΓΉ her, it was really warm. It's so ugly, she doesn't want to accept it: "I'd better wear snow boots." β
β¦β¦
Ye Jiacheng and Zhang Kai shook hands almost equally, Shi Jian silently took out his right hand, moved inadvertently, and waited for Ye Jiacheng to shake it.
As a result, there is no grip.
Shi Jian silently put his hand back in his pocket, hoping not to be discovered. She sat down again, but she didn't expect Ye Jiacheng not only to think that he didn't know her, but also to ignore her like this.
At this moment, the sofa was concave to the right, and Ye Jiacheng sat down casually next to her. The three-person sofa seat, which was originally not large, suddenly had one more person, and the soft sofa immediately recessed slightly to his side.
She and his ass are about to touch!
Then, Ye Jiacheng stood up again, walked to the chest of drawers not far away, and brought over the apple knife.
Ye Jiacheng sat down again, and she really touched his ass.
"Peel apples for the guests." The father-in-law said to Ye Jiacheng, and then smiled, "Jiacheng's apple cutting skills are good, haha, this is a good advantage that he has rare." β
Mayor Ye joked so easily, and everyone laughed.
Obviously, Ye Jiacheng didn't want to admit the rare and good merit of peeling apples, so he didn't respond to his father's jokes. Shi Jian was also so angry with Ye Jiacheng that she couldn't laugh. Next to her, Ye Jiacheng bent down to pick up her apple, put it in the palm of her hand, turned around, and put her back in the fruit basket.
Shi Jian: "......" didn't even give her an apple?
She turned her head quietly in embarrassment, and Ye Jiacheng suddenly said to her in a relatively familiar tone: "That apple just now is not sweet enough, I'll pick a better one for you." β
He only said this to her, but everyone heard it.
"......" Shi Jian turned her head again and whispered back to him, "...... Thank you. β
"Heh~ You're welcome."
Then, Ye Jia came true and picked an apple for her that was not too big, but pink enough. In the past, Ye Jiacheng often picked apples for her, and he was especially good at picking crispy apples that were sweet and watery.
Shi Jian lowered his eyebrows and was pleasing to his ears, Mayor Ye naturally found out that his son was courteous to the beautiful girl, and noticed Yi Pei's gaze, Mayor Ye couldn't help but remind: "Jiacheng, you pick a sweet one for us." Mayor Ye said this because he didn't want Yi Pei to misunderstand, his son seemed to be molesting his employees. Although, it looks a bit like a flirtation.
"Hmm." At his father's command, Ye Jiacheng nodded and said, "I'll cut her first." β
Hmm~ Shi Jian felt that she couldn't sit still, if she didn't look good now, she would be a nymphomaniac to his son in front of the mayor.
"Thank you." She looked at Ye Jiacheng and refused, "I won't eat it." β
Ye Jiacheng held the picked red apple and looked at her: "Don't you eat it?" β
Shi Jian nodded in confirmation, the reason was very polite, and she replied to Ye Jiacheng: "We'll eat later." β
Oh, yes. Ye Jiacheng put the apple back.
Similarly, Zhang Kai and Yi Pei don't eat apples, Ye Jiacheng has nothing to do, Mayor Ye looked at the kitchen, instructed his son to do things and said, "Jiacheng, you go into the kitchen and have a look." β
"Okay." Ye Jiacheng stood up and walked to the kitchen.
When Shi Jian heard her father-in-law's words, she realized that what she had just said seemed to be urging rice. Ye Jiacheng quickly turned back from the kitchen and asked as if he didn't know the situation: "Dad, Aunt Zhang is not here today?" β
Ye Jiacheng said something that he probably meant, now that his mother is cooking alone, it is estimated that he will have to wait for dinner today.
Father Ye didn't reply to Ye Jiacheng, smiled at Yi Pei a little apologetically, and continued to chat with Yi Pei, tonight's banquet was originally a temporary arrangement, and it happened that the aunt was not there, and only his wife was busy alone. I really don't know when I'm going to eat.
It turns out that Aunt Zhang is really not here. Shi Jian stood up: "I'll go in and help...... Auntie. β
In the past, when she and Ye Jiacheng came back for dinner, she usually helped her mother-in-law and Aunt Zhang.
ββ¦β¦ How can you get guests to help. Mayor Ye smiled at her and looked at his son, who was on the armrest of the single sofa, "...... Jiacheng, didn't you just go into the kitchen? Why did you come out again, go in and help your mom. β
This disgusted tone. Ye Jiacheng's eyes looked at someone as if he was nothing. When someone says to go in and help, is it just talking?
Shi Jian went into the kitchen to help. Even if it's just a junior, there's no problem for her to go in and help out. What's more, she got Yi Pei's permissioned look.
In the kitchen, my mother-in-law is really the only one who cooks. She came in to help, and her mother-in-law smiled kindly at her. Probably too busy, my mother-in-law arranged some simple things for her.
Shi Jian stood quietly next to the sink to wash vegetables, and secretly looked back at her mother-in-law who was cooking from time to time. In this life, is she lucky enough to continue to be the daughter-in-law of this kind woman?
After being a mother-in-law for five years, Shi Jian started to be familiar, and her mother-in-law looked at her and said with satisfaction: "It's better to have a daughter." β
Hee-hee.
Shi Jian peeled the potatoes, I don't know if my mother-in-law wants to shred or slice, or cut into pieces? The mother-in-law has different practices for the three types of cuts. She lined up the round potatoes on the drill board, and was about to ask her mother-in-law to start again, but she didn't pay attention for a while, turned around and called directly: "Mom......"
Mom -
Oh my God, she really wanted to sew her mouth on. Shi Jian's body was stiff, and at the same time, in addition to Ye Mu, there was also Ye Jiacheng who had just come in.
Ye Jiacheng looked at her, couldn't help laughing, and suddenly crooked his mouth.
"Wipe...... Cloth...... Where is it? Shi Jian raised a bright smile and quickly replied. Not far away, Ye Jiacheng pouted his head and told her: "On your left." β
"Oh, okay."
Shi Jian lowered his head and rolled his gaze and picked up the rag.
Finding that it was just an auditory misunderstanding, Ye's mother also laughed, just this "Mom", Ye's mother really felt as if she had an extra daughter-in-law in an instant.
Ye Jiacheng came over to help, and asked Aunt Zhang while doing things.
"Your Aunt Zhang's daughter-in-law gave birth a while ago, and Aunt Zhang asked for leave to go back to take care of her daughter-in-law's confinement." Mother Ye told her son.
"Oh." Ye Jia listened boredly, he washed the potatoes again and handed them to Shi Jian, or asked, "Son or daughter?" β
"Where's the granddaughter?" Mother Ye replied, and then used the topic to play, "What about you, Aunt Zhang is a few years younger than me, and now she has her granddaughter." β
"How does this compare." Ye Jiacheng couldn't understand, his eyes stayed on Shi Jian's hands that cut potatoes, and after a few glances, he turned around and replied to his mother's words, "...... I don't have a girlfriend yet. β
Shi Jian's hand on the potato paused, and then continued to cut, click, click!
Ye Jiacheng continued: "Even if I catch up with my girlfriend today, it will take several years for me to get married with her seriously. So just wait. Wait three years and five years, and it may be about the same. β
Mother Ye sighed and didn't want to continue talking with her son.
Shi Jian cut the potatoes and handed them to Ye Mu. The last dish, Ye Mu no longer asked her to help, Ye Mu looked at her cut potatoes, and asked her in surprise: "Hey, I forgot to say it, how do you know that I want to cut it?" β
Shi Jian smiled, she just guessed according to her mother-in-law's cooking habits, and the next dish should be potato brisket. She washed her hands and walked out of the kitchen.
Outside, the night was already dark.
The living room has a warm light on, and Yi Pei and her father-in-law are ...... under the light It's Mayor Ye who is playing chess. Zhang Kai stood by the side and watched, watching the chess without saying a word, Yi Pei and Ye's father went back and forth, and the two did not speak.
There was a very harmonious silence in such an atmosphere, and Shi Jian also stood next to him and watched for a while, until Ye Jiacheng came over to call everyone to eat for Ye's mother.
Dinner is ready, and the game of chess between Yi Pei and Mayor Ye is over. Mayor Ye said to Yi Pei: "Mr. Yi's chess style is very stable, and the overall situation is in control, which is really good, unlike the ...... of dogs" Mayor Ye didn't continue, after all, the antonym of stability is not a derogatory term.
"I have to be steady, and playing chess with Mayor Ye must be thoughtful." Yi Pei stood up with Mayor Ye and continued to smile, "Otherwise, you will only make a mistake and lose everything." β
Yi Pei is not exaggerating, and he is very sincere. Mayor Ye smiled again and again, looked at Ye Jiacheng who came over, and said seriously: "I often warn my son Jiacheng to be cautious no matter what he does. If Jiacheng has half of your temperament, I will lose half of his teachings. β
Ye Jiacheng: "......"
Yi Pei lowered his head and smiled: "The father's earnest teachings to his son are all manifestations of love, and I envy them." Then, Yi Pei accompanied Mayor Ye to the table, and both of them sat in the main seat.
Yi Pei's words, Shi Jian suddenly became a little distracted. If someone else says something like this, it should just be an ordinary compliment. But Yi Pei, he doesn't seem to know who his father is......
That sentence of envy sounded like a heartfelt touch.
It is really easy for a woman to feel sympathy, Shi Jian thought about Yi Pei's business empire in the future. She didn't need to sympathize with Yi Pei at all. What will Yi Pei not get in the future, as strong as him, the only regret is probably that he has not enjoyed his father's love.
After all, now that she has also helped Zhao Wenwen, he and Zhao Wenwen should get married soon, and then give birth to a child and become a father. Shi Jian was distracted, Ye Jiacheng stood next to her, only she and Ye Jiacheng were left in the living room, and he said to her: "Little fox, it's time to eat!" β
In line with this sentence, he put the hand behind her and pushed it.
Little Fox ...... Shi Jian tilted her head to look at Ye Jiacheng, she thought that he would keep pretending not to know her tonight. Shi Jian turned his head and walked to Zhang Kai's side.
The main dish of the Ye family's banquet tonight is the duck bamboo shoot soup that Ye Mu is best at. Shi Jian sat at the farthest side of the table and looked at the brown saucepan in the middle, she still drank it!
On the other side, Ye Jiacheng stood up and served a bowl to everyone. He served it evenly, and everyone was almost half a bowl of soup, and then two or three pieces of duck meat were paired with some shredded bamboo shoots.
It was her turn, and it turned out to be only soup, nothing to eat.
Shi Jian took it silently, without saying a word, lowered his head, picked up the silver-white spoon and scooped it up. I didn't pay attention to it, and directly scooped out a duck heart.
It turns out that she doesn't have nothing in this bowl, but also has a heart.
