(361) If I become a prodigal son

~

Ye Nuonuo was very grateful and moved by her father's love and attachment to her mother, so she also had a hint of fatherly love in her heart, and longed in her heart that in the future, she would also find a husband who was infatuated with her.

She also couldn't bear to see her father often keep this kind of lonely memories of the past, but she was afraid that her father would really continue the strings and she would get along with her stepmother.

Fortunately, on the day Ye Zhengming took Xiaoyu back to his home, he made it clear that he would not continue the strings, which made her finally get rid of that kind of contradictory trouble, completely put her mind at ease, and loved her father even more, hoping that the loneliness in his heart could be less because of his company.

In Yenono's memory, when his father used to think about his mother, he would only say some things that his mother had done before, but today his father asked her about what his mother had said, which was the first time he had done it.

Ye Nuono didn't know how to deal with it for a while, and she really couldn't come up with an answer to it in her heart.

Ye Zhengming didn't expect his daughter to answer this question. In fact, it was precisely because he knew that his daughter could not know the answer that he would bring up this matter in order to achieve the purpose of guiding and educating her.

"Your mother said that her daughter is well-behaved and will not cause trouble for me. But in fact, I can probably guess that she really wants to say more than this. When Ye Zhengming said this, he didn't know if he remembered something that tugged at his heartstrings, and he suddenly closed his mouth and fell silent.

His gaze wandered over the teacup on the desk, and finally landed on the tea-soaked notebook, Ye Zhengming's gaze gradually froze, and then suddenly continued: "Actually, she knows that she won't live long, if she can only give birth to one child for me, it will naturally be a daughter." That way, even if she dies soon, I don't have to worry too much about her not being able to take care of the children and that I will have too many burdens. After all... The daughter will not stay in her parents' house for long and will get married. ”

Yeno observed his father's gaze. I was still nervous about my father's fixed gaze, did I see the strangeness on the poster. After all, the amount of a cup of tea is not enough to wet the entire copybook, and at the edge of the copybook, there can still be one or two lines of handwriting that have not been affected by water stains, which can be seen to be different from their own handwriting.

However, when Ye Zhengming's words came to the back, Ye Nuonuo's heart moved, and he couldn't help but feel slightly sour in his heart, and temporarily forgot about the cheating he was nervous about.

Seeing that his father stopped speaking after saying this, Ye Nuonuo thought for a while and said, "Because my father often remembers my mother's virtuous lady, if I could follow my mother's temperament a little more." Father, of course, will be pleased. But now that I follow my father's temperament, you shouldn't be sad, because many of my classmates in the female school have said it. Daughters are more blessed to be like their fathers. I don't know if the classmates who said this are because they look like their fathers, so most of them are not beautiful, so they will think of this way to shirk it, but you have to be glad father, even if I inherited your temperament. It's not a complete inheritance, otherwise if I become a prodigal son like my father, then you should have a headache! ”

Ye Zhengming looked at his daughter in a daze, he was still a little sad because he missed his deceased wife just now, but in a blink of an eye, the depressed feeling in his heart was beaten by his daughter's words, and his face became a little crying and laughing.

"Ahem... When my father was young, he was indeed a little unruly. But that was when he was young, and the young man's blood and qi were used to acting impulsively......" Ye Zhengming suddenly paused as soon as he said this, and then stared at Ye Nuonuo and said, "Where did you go to find out about this?" ”

"Hey! There's no need to ask. You know. I was not very popular with the other classmates at the girls' school, so they didn't hide much from me and about you. At Kyoto's No. 1 Women's School, my father is not the only one who reports on his work in the court, so naturally there is no shortage of people who know some of your past 'anecdotes'. ”

Yeno stretched out the index finger of his right hand. Hooked his fingertips and gently scratched the side of his face that was a little itchy, and continued, "I upset them." It's my fault, too, but they can't think of a way to fix meβ€”they... Often, it's only my share - that's why they say 'Ye Zhengming's anecdotes' to others. Actually, what they said about your experience is not a big deal in my opinion. It's nothing more than how you used to spend money without moderation, have no intention of inheriting the family business, and are lazy in your studies... Belch... I also like to linger in the flowers and things like that. ”

Ye Nuonuo's fingers scraping her cheeks suddenly froze, she turned her face slightly, stared at her father's eyes and asked in an important tone: "Father, did our family really have a lot of money before?" ”

"Hmm." Ye Zhengming didn't hide this question, but he didn't explain it in detail, but just nodded a little casually. It seems that now, no matter how the world changes, the Ye family is no longer prosperous, and the pride in Ye Zhengming's heart has not diminished in the slightest for the glory of the family in the past.

This also indirectly shows that the statements that sound a little exaggerated in women's studies may not be distorted because of hostility, but seem to be true.

Ye Nuonuo was naturally aroused by his father's default nod of curiosity that had been pent up for a long time.

In fact, she heard much more rumors about her father in the women's school than her father told her about the Ye family's past. In the past, Ye Nuonuo was busy with the affairs of the women's school, and she was also a little annoyed that her father always liked to lecture her at the same time when she was talking about some things in the past, so she rarely took the initiative to ask about these, and she really didn't have much spare time to discuss these things with her father.

Now, I don't have to go to girls' school, and my father has the idea of quitting the Taiyi Bureau, and it doesn't seem to be a joke, if the future development of things is really fulfilled one by one, then I will live with my father for a long time in the future, so today seems to be an opportunity, and my father should be more unreserved than usual when he talks about the past.

So Ye Nuonuo then asked: "I heard others say that before our family, the wealth owned by the whole family was accumulated, even if my father and the next three generations of children and grandchildren were lying down and enjoying, it would not be able to spend it all. I also heard that our Ye family from the generation of the old man did not want to study and take the examination, and gradually made money outside the northern country, even so, the old man still insisted on maintaining the relationship with the officialdom to maintain the relationship between the well water and the river water, and was praised as an immortal businessman by the people in the business world. I didn't believe it before, but now you're nodding your head, father, alas! ”

"Nowadays, my grandfather's ideas were wise and far-reaching, but when I was younger, I only used his words as an excuse to avoid studying." Because of his daughter's words, he remembered some past things, and Ye Zhengming said a meaningful sentence.

After that, he looked at Ye Nuonuo, and then said, "Where did you hear these things?" It's not as simple as ordinary gossip. ”

"I don't remember exactly. Don't listen to what I've said at this time, in fact, in the past few years of women's school, I have heard this news in total, which is not much......" Ye Nuonuo's eyes gradually lit up again as she spoke, obviously another thought sprouted in her heart at this moment.

Sure enough, I saw that she quickly paused, turned the conversation and asked, "Dad, did something happen to our family before?" I don't see any relatives in our family, oh no, it seems that there are no relatives at all! However, this can also explain that you did not inherit the business business, but became a doctor. It's just that...... Abandoning business and practicing medicine, such a loss-making thing is not like a wise choice after Jujia. ”

Ye Zhengming did not answer this question quickly. He lowered his eyes slightly and pondered, as if he had always had concerns about whether to answer his daughter's question now.

After a long period of deliberation, he raised his gaze and swept the teacup on the table, and said slowly, "Xiaoyu was here just now?" ”

Ye Nono looked at his father's gaze, and his heart instinctively trembled. Ye Zhengming's words took a sudden turn, which reminded her of the crisis that she had just ignored for the time being.

While secretly comforting herself and saying, "It's okay, it's okay, my father just asked casually", she tensed her heartstrings and replied with a humble appearance: "Xiaoyu carefully soaked the jasmine spring tip you like to drink, but unfortunately you happened to be there just now." ”

Ye Nuonuo didn't know that he had made a big mistake by only saying this sentence, and while doubting the truth of her words, Ye Zhengming re-examined everything in the study. And when he examined it this time, the attitude he upheld was no longer a dispensable doubt, but a justified doubt.

Jasmine Spring Tip? It was indeed tea that Ye Zhengming had been accustomed to drinking for more than ten years, so how could he not smell a trace of this familiar smell in the study? And with his good sense of smell for medicinal herbs that he had cultivated over many years of medical practice, it was not difficult for him to sniff out the smell of two other compound medicines in the study.

Mo Ye had taken the decoction prepared by Liao Shi for five consecutive years, so that her physique had begun to change slightly. Ordinary people with a keen sense of smell can smell a hint of medicine in her breath when they are very close to her, but a doctor like Ye Zhengming is more sensitive to the experience of this hint of medicine, just like an experienced chef can smell it from a bowl of clear soup.

As for the smell of the other medicine...... After someone ate a board yesterday, the servant who went to rub the medicine and cook for her in the Ye Mansion in the evening was ordered by Ye Zhengming, and the medicine that can quickly scab over the flesh and flesh was also prepared by himself, for this, Ye Zhengming is of course very familiar with it.

It's just that Xiao Yu didn't forget to take the opportunity to come to see Ye Nuonuo with his injury, which was expected by him, but Mo Ye, the kid, also came, why is this?
