- And just when she was still a little skeptical in her heart about whether her father doubted her, she suddenly heard her father speak: "Noor, our Ye family did suffer a catastrophe more than ten years ago, the whole family was shaken, and the family business was greatly damaged. And all this is the result of irreversible results for me alone. ”

Ye Nuonuo was stunned when he heard this.

Although she didn't know why her father suddenly moved the topic back to the same path, at least now that he didn't continue to stare at the note with a judgmental gaze, she was relieved by this. As soon as she heard that her father positively admitted her second conjecture about the Ye family's long and somewhat dreamy family history. Although she was a little surprised, with the depth of her current thinking, she still couldn't deeply understand how severe the family catastrophe was in her father's words.

But. The kind of image she could think of quickly came to her mind.

Shang Xian ...... Home robbery...... The withered kin......

The cold silver taels can be accumulated, and there will be a day when they will be exhausted; But if such a large family wants to wither to this point, it still marks that there were once living people who disappeared from the world.

It's all there. It's not simple, and there's a hint of cruelty.

What kind of crime is needed to make the entire Ye clan disappear to the point that only the father is left?

Unable to recover from the disaster of the family's mountain collapse, his father had to change his career to survive, which is also a beautiful man from another world to read the full text. But if the Ye family was really accused of such a crime, why could his father get the highest honor in the Taiyi Bureau? There seems to be a contradiction in this.

After a moment of silence. Ye Nuonuo asked softly, "What's wrong with the Ye family?" ”

Ye Zhengming didn't answer when he heard this, and asked: "You ask this question because you regret the disappearance of the Ye family's wealth." Or is it just to know that the fate of the Ye family has changed? ”

"Uh......" Ye Nono hesitated.

Honestly. The question asked by Ip proves that the boundaries of its nature are blurred and intersecting. With Ye Nono's current cognition, it is relatively difficult to clearly analyze it.

After pondering for a long time, Ye Nuonuo slowly spoke: "I want to know why the Ye family has changed. ”

As if he was not used to thinking about such a dull question, Ye Nuonuo shook his head a little heavily after replying. He added: "Although I also wish my father could give me more pocket money every month, I don't know when I stand in front of a mountain of gold. What can I do? It's just that for the Ye family, what happened to him? But it is something that I am curious about, or that I am obliged to know, because he is my ancestor, and I am a descendant of the Ye family. ”

"It's good that you have this awareness."

Ye Nuonuo's words made Ye Zhengming's heart fluctuate suddenly. Looking at his daughter, who was only eight years old. He continued with a slight pride in his words: "What did the previous generation do? It's a thing of the past. The bad things have been reduced to dust with the remains of our ancestors, but I believe that they exist between heaven and earth, and I can touch them from time to time. So I'm not alone. And for this past. You don't have to be exhaustive. Just remember that what the Ye family did in the past is not guilty of heaven and earth. It is also worthy of the heart. ”

Ye Nuonuo felt the kind of aura that was usually rare in her father's words, and although she was full of doubts about his words, she still nodded seriously.

In fact, at this time, she really wanted to ask her father, since she was innocent and guilty, why was the end of the Ye family so sad? However, she looked at her father's arrogant eyes, and after hesitating for a moment, she finally gave up and brought this doubt to her lips at this moment.

Ye Zhengming, who had been pondering for a while, finally slowly gathered his thoughts back to the bottom of his heart, he looked at Ye Nuonuo, his eyes were slightly sluggish, and then he stretched out an arm flatly.

Yeno quickly understood, walked over to his father, and let him put his arm on his shoulder. And she also took the initiative to get closer to her father, and rubbed her father's clothes with her head like when she was a child, regardless of the fact that she now needs to comb her hair down, so she will definitely become a 'lion's head' and lose her image.

Ye Zhengming doesn't care about his daughter's image, it's just a little girl, and she is only playful when she is occasionally coquettish, in fact, he likes to see his daughter like this in his heart.

Spreading his palm and gently rubbing his daughter's silky hair, Ye Zhengming slowly spoke: "When our Ye family was still in the family business before, although there were many heirs, there were few girls. Maybe this is a blessing from God to the Ye family, boys can shoulder the burden of the family business, no matter how good a girl is, there are always many more obstacles than boys in the world. However, it may also be because of this reason, your wife likes to raise his daughter very much, and he also likes to take his granddaughter to play. If he is still alive, it is estimated that with his temper, the more naughty you are, the more he likes it. ”

Ye Nuonuo's eyes suddenly appeared with novelty, and he said with a smile: "That grandfather is much cuter than you." It's strange, compared to me, my father is a generation closer to my grandfather, why hasn't he inherited this excellent quality at all? ”

Ye Zhengming, who was caressing his daughter's hair, heard this, and gave Ye Nuonuo a slap in the face, and then he sighed lightly and said: "I say this to you, I don't want you to know what reason you should find in the future to excuse your troubles." ”

After being knocked on the head by her father, Ye Nuonuo habitually wanted to argue, but she didn't do it after hesitating for a while, she just obediently relented, covered the place on her head that was knocked painfully, squinted her eyes and said honestly: "Nuo'er knows that she is wrong, listen to her father's teachings." ”

Ye Zhengming looked at his daughter's unusually well-behaved appearance, and suddenly wanted to laugh, but held back.

After his solemn complexion, he continued: "When your wife was alive, although he loved the girls in the family very much, it was not only his doting. The old man hopes that the girls in the clan will not lose to the male heirs, no matter how low the status of women in the world is, at least in the Ye family, there is no need to abide by this way too much. This is the family style advocated by the old man, he gave the women in the clan the greatest freedom, and he had great expectations for integrating the delicate wisdom of women into business. ”

Without waiting for Ye Nuonuo, whose doubts were growing in his eyes, to speak, he continued immediately after a slight pause: "Although I have changed my career now, this family style of the Ye family has always been there. The old man hopes that the women of the Ye family will be self-respecting and self-reliant. I will continue this way. So no matter how wanton you behaved before, I didn't deliberately restrict it, not because I indulged in spoiling, but because I was giving you the freedom to create yourself. ”

Ye Nuonuo suddenly realized and nodded heavily.

"But......" Ye Zhengming let go of his daughter's hand, and said in an important tone: "The freedom I gave you is not for you to squander out of thin air. Because of the expectations of your ancestors, because of family responsibilities, I hope that in the future, you will gradually understand what you are doing for what you are doing, even when you are doing ridiculous things, you must know whether it is necessary or not. If you do something ridiculous for the sake of something ridiculous. Then you're really ruining yourself. ”

Since I was just scolded. Ye Nuonuo gradually corrected his attitude. Perhaps it was this strange and sacred sense of family mission that had a pressure that made her dare not blaspheme and made her feel slightly nervous. It also made her think seriously about what her father said.

So after his father's words, he fell behind for a while. Ye Nuonuo suddenly thought of a doubt. Then he asked, "Father, Nuo'er wants to ask, what exactly is the 'absurdity' you are talking about?" ”

"I think it's ridiculous that you're skipping school. But it's not ridiculous, because you only do it once in a while when you're in a bad mood, and I'm responsible for that. But then again, my definition of absurdity doesn't apply directly to you. Ye Zhengming slowly spoke: "You need to understand this yourself, don't you say?" ”

Ye Nono quickly nodded in agreement. Feeling her father's open-mindedness, she smiled happily on her face, and felt that when she stood in front of her father and met her eyes, the sense of oppression in her heart was also relaxed.

As soon as her heart was relaxed, she quickly remembered another confusion, and said boldly: "Father, you said that the old man hopes that the daughters of the Ye family will be self-respecting and self-reliant, but the women's etiquette I learned in the women's school is a completely different truth. ”

"Now that the Ye family is no longer in business, and there is no strong family power to protect it, how can the daughter of the Ye family be self-respecting and self-reliant? To put it bluntly, a woman's life, marriage and childbirth are the greatest, and other than that, it seems to be useless. When you reach the marriageable age, if you can't find the man you like to marry, you must be guided by the marriage matchmaker, even if it is far-fetched, you have to follow it, so how can you have self-esteem? Marry her husband and honor her in-laws, but in addition to this, it seems that women will not have other careers, how can they be self-reliant? ”

Ye Zhengming didn't expect that her eight-year-old daughter would think about marriage so deeply, she could say such a long paragraph fluently, obviously this passage has long existed in her heart, and she has considered it many times. Under the premise that there was no one to guide her, she could think so much about this matter, and she was still faintly anxious, Ye Zhengming didn't know whether she should be glad that her daughter was gradually sensible, or worried that her spiritual growth had far exceeded her physical growth.

Regarding the problem of self-esteem and self-improvement of the Ye family's daughter, Ye Zhengming wanted to use the two women in the Ye family as a model to give his daughter a hint, but he quickly gave up this idea.

Just because one of these two people had passed away, he didn't want to mention her dead again, and he didn't want to recount the death process of the few women in the Ye family in front of his daughter.

And another woman took the initiative to cut off relations with the Ye family in her early years. Back then, her practice was almost tantamount to a great rebellion, and the Ye family could have used the law of imprisoning her for ten years and eight years to make her obedient, but at that time, the old man Ye Daorong was still alive. Although there was anger and disappointment in her heart, under his auspices, the Ye family let her go.

Now it seems that her departure may be right, and now that she has changed her name and surname, she should live an ordinary but safe life somewhere in the world, right?

Ye Zhengming didn't want to do anything that might disturb her. Even if this woman failed the family first, they each had the same blood in their bodies, which was not a verbal abandonment of the family that could be completely severed.

After pondering for a long time, Ye Zhengming opened his mouth and said slowly: "People with self-respect and self-love must have a clear ability to distinguish between right and wrong, and husbands and children are the basic virtues of women, I don't think there is a conflict between the two. In the future, if anyone wants to force you to marry someone with a problem with character. I'll be the first to jump out against it, but to put it another way, when one day you marry the man you belong to. Shouldn't you restrain your heart, love your husband and children, and cherish the family that you yourself have approved? ”

Ye Nuonuo nodded as if he had realized: "That's right, if the husband is affectionate, the in-laws are loving." There's no reason why I shouldn't be nice to them the other way around. ”

"As for how you should find such a good family, you can look at the father, a prodigal son back then, didn't he marry a virtuous wife?" Ye Zhengming smiled at his daughter, and said, "When fate comes, it's wonderful. ”

Ye Nuonuo's eyes gradually revealed a look of yearning.

Ye Zhengming suddenly raised two fingers again. said: "Also, when you want to marry in the future, I can check for you." Although he is not sure if he has the talent to find a son-in-law. But in the name of my former prodigal, at least in the future, there will be no prodigal who can entangle you, and you can rest assured. ”

Ye Nono laughed happily.

……

In just this moment, Ye Zhengming said a lot of words and remembered many people who had passed away. My thoughts wandered far enough, so I couldn't help but feel a little sad. Thereupon. Without waiting for Ye Nuonuo to think of 'sending off', Ye Zhengming said that he needed to rest for a while, and left the study.

Before leaving, he mentioned that when he went back to the backyard bedroom, he would stop by to see Mo Ye.

His sentence appeared at this time, which was actually a bit redundant. For his daughter, who stayed in the study to practice calligraphy and copying, he didn't need to tell her what he would do when he left the study, it was irrelevant.

Ye Zhengming did it on purpose, and Ye Nuonuo also intentionally listened to it.

Ye Zhengming mentioned it seemingly casually, but Ye Nuonuo was shocked when he heard it. Then she remembered that she had almost forgotten the two who were hiding behind the bookcase. So after seeing Ye Zhengming's back in the door of the study that had just not been closed, she hurriedly walked to the back of the bookcase.

Then she saw Xiao Yu, whose eyes were slightly red, and Mo Ye, whose expression was a little sluggish.

The attitude of the two of them has silently illustrated a problem. Ye Nuonuo said with some embarrassment: "You all heard it? ”

Xiaoyu said slightly infatuatedly: "If there is a next life, I want to be the daughter of the Ye family." ”

Ye Nuonuo was stunned.

Mo Ye slowly came back to his senses and said lightly: "I can't stay here any longer, I'll go back to the room first." ”

Although her words were calm, the expression on her face was still preoccupied. I listened to Ye Zhengming's words through the bookcase just now, although it was a conversation between his father and daughter, but he also unconsciously had a very complicated inspiration for Mo Ye, and unconsciously made her fall into a kind of contradiction and embarrassment.
