The afterglow of spring was sprinkled in front of Ling Ye, a piece of gold.

Ling Ye leaned on the threshold, frowning slightly. She subconsciously touched her shoulder, the wound of Ouyang Qing's sword earlier had not completely healed. Ling Ye held on all the way, but he was afraid that Ouyang Qing would see the clues. Now that she lives under the same roof with Ouyang Qing, it is not easy to support Ouyang Qing to change the dressing by herself, so she can only wait for the wound to heal by itself.

"What are you thinking?" Ouyang Qing walked from behind Ling Ye, looked at Ling Ye's expression, and couldn't help asking.

Ling Ye came back to his senses, stood up straight, and smiled reluctantly: "It's nothing." It's just that...... It's just that I feel a little bit about the unknown future......"

Ouyang Qing stared at Ling Ye's eyes, but smiled, and said, "I've never seen you say such a thing, but it's because of the owner of Duanmu Village?" You just have to remember that no matter what happens, I'm there for you! ”

Ling Ye didn't answer, and saw Duanmu Cicada trotting from a distance.

"Miss and Uncle have been waiting for a long time, dinner has been prepared, and the owner of the village invites Miss and Uncle to go to Yuying Hall for dinner." Duanmu Cicada was full of smiles.

Ling Ye and Ouyang Qing glanced at each other, and the two followed Duanmu Cicada all the way.

Yuying Hall was not far from the guest room where Ling Ye and Ouyang Qing were staying, and in about half a pillar of incense, Ling Ye and Ouyang Qing were already standing outside Yuying Hall. It's just that the people in front of them really surprised Ling Ye and Ouyang Qing. Duanmu Ku hurriedly greeted him, and the people on the side, both men and women, old and young, all looked at Ling Ye with strange eyes, they only felt that Ling Ye was an uninvited guest.

"Yao'er, come on, come on, I'll introduce your sister to you......"

Duanmu Ku hugged Ling Ye very enthusiastically, not noticing the embarrassment and displeasure on the faces of Ling Ye and the people around him.

Ling Ye glanced at these unfamiliar faces, but never saw Duanmu Ming, and couldn't help asking, "The young master hasn't come yet?" ”

"I've always been late, and I don't need this kind of scene anyway."

Duanmu Ming's voice suddenly sounded from a distance, Ling Ye looked back, but Duanmu Ming was already sitting crookedly in front of Ling Ye, holding ivory chopsticks in his hand, and casually ate a bite of braised elbow, Dazan was his favorite, without looking at Ling Ye and Duanmu Ku at all. As for Duanmu Ming's behavior, Duanmu Ku and everyone seemed to be accustomed to it, without blame, and even a little awe.

Ling Ye's eyes that captured all this became more and more curious about the Duanmu family.

"Yao'er, this is your Sanniang, this is your Sanniang's daughter, in terms of age, it should be your second sister Duanmuzhi."

Ling Ye looked in the direction of Duanmuku's finger, Sanniang, who was wearing a pink dress, was only in her early twenties, and this second sister Duanmuzhi also looked like she was ten years old. Ling Ye couldn't help but laugh secretly, wasn't it true that this Duanmu Third Lady was pregnant with Duanmu Ku's child when she was ten years old?

The third lady of Duanmu saw the disdain in Ling Ye's eyes, so she sneered: "Isn't it a blessing for a woman to meet a man worthy of entrusting her life in her best years?" I think you are a newlywed couple, when will you also add a white and chubby grandson to the owner? ”

Ouyang Qing's face turned red instantly, until now, he hadn't even had a round room with Ling Ye.

Ling Ye's face did not change, and replied: "When will the third lady give birth to another one for the owner?" ”

Before the third lady of Duanmu could speak, Ling Ye looked at his second sister who suddenly appeared.

Because he was fed up with Ling Xiao and Ling Shang when he was in the Ling family, Ling Ye really couldn't say anything good about this Duanmuzhi.

Although Duanmuzhi has a round face, fleshy face, and two dimples are cute, and he always smiles at Ling Ye, but Ling Ye's gaze is as cold as a sword. But Duanmuzhi didn't realize it, hugged Ling Ye's waist tightly, and said with a smile: "I finally have a sister!" Daddy, I finally have a sister......"

Ling Ye pouted, and the third lady of Duanmu dragged Duanmuzhi back to her side.

Duanmu smiled lightly and continued to introduce the Duanmu family to Ling Ye. What are the fourth and fifth ladies, and there are seven ladies. But I never saw the figure of Mrs. Zhengfu, and Ling Ye couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Gu Xiaofei was Mrs. Zhengfu? But if Gu Xiaofei was the main room of Duanmuku, how could she run to Ling Yun's side and become Ling Yun's wife?

Ling Ye was absent-minded, looking at the sons born to the ladies in front of him, and finally understood why Duanmuzhi wanted his sister.

"After the introduction, let's hurry up and eat, the dishes are getting cold!" Duanmu knocked on the dishes dissatisfied.

Duanmu Ku hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, look at my busy work first...... Come on, come on, eat first, eat first, let's talk as we eat. ”

Duanmuku sat on the main seat, Ling Ye sat on the left side of Duanmuku, Ouyang Qing was next to Ling Ye, and the second lady and others sat on the right side of Duanmukut in turn. Everything is in order, Duanmu Cicada is responsible for ordering people to come forward to arrange vegetables, but Ling Ye is full of worries and calculations, and has no appetite.

Duanmuzhi stretched out her arms and wanted to eat the icefish crystal on the table, but because the distance was too far, she couldn't eat it. Duanmuzhi had to beg the maid beside him, but the maidservant looked at the face of the second lady Duanmu. The second lady of Duanmu had already ordered that Duanmuzhi was not allowed to eat ice fish, saying that it was not good for Duanmuzhi's health, but Duanmuzhi liked to eat ice fish the most. Seeing that the second lady of Duanmu disagreed, Duanmuzhi immediately turned pale and shouted that he must eat ice fish, so that the brothers on the side could not eat.

Ling Ye didn't look at it, and suddenly asked, "How did my mother and I get out of here?" ”

Ling Ye's voice landed, and the atmosphere on the table immediately became cold to freezing point, and even Duanmuzhi forgot to shout. The second lady of Duanmu immediately stepped forward and hit the back of Duanmuzhi's hand with chopsticks, which made Duanmuzhi scream in pain, but Duanmuzhi immediately covered her mouth with both hands, stared at her eyes, and obediently sat back in her position.

Ling Ye saw that Duanmu Ku didn't speak, and asked again: "My mother and I, how did you leave here?" ”

"That was many years ago......," Duanmu Ku put down the dishes and chopsticks, sighed, and said, "At that time, I had just left the Far North, and I was a bastard who did all kinds of evil. After meeting your mother, I fell hopelessly in love with her. I never thought that my love was the deepest hurt to Xiaofei. All my past sins have been repaid on Xiaofei! She has become the laughing stock of the world and has been criticized by the world! to the back of the ...... At the end of the day, I didn't even have the ability to protect her! ”

Ling Ye frowned, his eyes swept over Duanmu's family, except for Duanmu Ming, it seemed that everyone had heard it for the first time.

Duanmu Ku said again: "Later, Lingyun intervened between me and your mother, he was generous and righteous, and saved your mother from dire straits several times. I watched coldly and felt that Ling Yun was the best person to take care of Gu Xiaofei, so I chose to quit. I don't want your mother to suffer with me, especially when she was pregnant with you. But your mother refused to leave until the day you were born, when I saw you and was determined to leave you. After this time, I thought it would be goodbye. I never thought that many years later, your mother would find me again. She rekindled my ambition and I decided to take her away...... But in the end, we were forced to jump off the cliff ......"

Ling Ye raised his eyebrows and looked at Duanmu Ku, the stories he told were the same as the news that Ling Ye had discovered, but there was always something wrong, and Ling Ye couldn't say it. Duanmu Ku had already hidden his face and wept, crying silently.

Duanmu said: "It seems that this meal can't be eaten anymore!" ”

After saying that, Duanmu Ming threw his chopsticks, got up suddenly, knocked the low stool to the ground, and left directly.

The remaining third lady, fourth lady, and seventh lady also had to take refuge in a hurry, and left in a hurry.

Only the second lady Duanmu was left standing up, and Duanmu Zhi was eating the ice fish crystal by herself.

The second lady of Duanmu stepped forward, held Duanmuku's shoulder, and said, "The owner of the village has already said that he is tired and wants to rest." ”

Ling Ye raised his eyebrows, gritted his teeth and glared at the second lady Duanmu, and then looked at Duanmu Ku meaningfully, and walked away.

Ouyang Qing saluted before leaving with Ling Ye.

Duanmu Ku slowly raised his head at this time, his forehead was full of cold sweat, and there were no tears in the corners of his eyes, and said: "If there is really a father, there must be a daughter, this midnight is too difficult to deal with!" ”

"You just need to do what the emperor wants, and the rest will naturally have the emperor."

Second Lady Duanmu raised her voice and looked at the back of Ling Ye far away.

"Yes." Duanmu Ku humbly responded.
