119. Embarrassment
The Ye family has more than one stronghold in the provincial capital, but Ye Chengdong still lives in the compound of the provincial party committee.
Sending away the driver Xiao Zhang, Ye Chengdong returned home with a heavy heart, and as soon as he came out of a shower, he saw his wife He Yun pushing the door into the house with a satchel.
He Yun is a few years younger than Chen Xian, but she is already in her forties, but she was born in a top wealthy family in Jiangnan, she has been well-dressed and well-maintained since she was a child, and she looks much younger than her actual age.
Hanging his coat on the coat hook, He Yun glanced at her husband with bright eyes: "Are you back from a meeting?" ”
Ye Chengdong said "um" noncommittally, he never talked about things at work at home, especially when facing his family, and He Yun rarely asked him about work-related things, but today suddenly came to such a sentence, Ye Chengdong's mood became a little gloomy.
It's not that he is a thief, but that he is extremely disgusted with He Yun's tone.
went to Nanping County, Ye Chengdong did not hide his whereabouts excessively, with his identity, no matter where he went, there would be no shortage of entourage, let alone lose his whereabouts and cut off the information for no reason, even if it was confidential, as long as he checked carefully, he could always find clues, especially an identity like He Yun, maybe he didn't need to ask at all, someone would report the news.
Therefore, He Yun's tone and questioning seemed to Ye Chengdong to have a bit of a taste of wanting to cover up.
It cannot be denied that He Yun's appearance is very beautiful, not under Chen Xian, and there is still a good temperament, the He family in Jiangnan is famous for its beautiful women among the big families, and they have received a very targeted education since they were young, and they are everywhere who marry into wealthy families, and He Yun is one of the leaders, but from beginning to end, Ye Chengdong is a little out of tune with his wife.
Although the husband and wife have not mentioned any topics related to Chen Xian since they got married, as if there has never been such a person as Chen Xian in the world, there has always been such a thorn in their hearts.
The key is that after Ye Chengdong was deceived into returning to Beijing, because of the marriage with the He family, it was too troublesome within the Ye family, and later a certain elder ordered him a few words, so he had to accept the family's arrangement calmly, and the elder also promised to ensure the safety of Chen Xian's mother and son, but this matter was in the Ye family, almost everyone at that time knew about it, and naturally it could not avoid being passed into He Yun's ears.
In fact, behind the marriage of the two families, many unknown things have happened, including Chen Xian's mother and son being traded as bargaining chips.
Not long after Ye Chengdong's elder died, Ye Chengdong went to Beiyang Province to take up a post, and then he secretly looked for Chen Xian, and it was from that time that Ye Ning changed from a doctor to a civil servant.
Ye Ning was attacked twice, to say that Ye Chengdong did not suspect the insiders of the Ye family, I am afraid that even he did not believe it.
Obviously, He Yun has become the biggest object of suspicion, but Ye Chengdong just thought about it in his heart, and then in addition to secretly strengthening the power of monitoring, it is impossible to make other actions, but the husband and wife have a bit of a dissenting taste.
Even though he knew that his suspicions were a little nonsensical, Ye Chengdong still unconsciously had a slight estrangement with his wife, because of this, after he heard He Yun's words, his nerves reflexively gave birth to a little disgust, and he could say such an unknown "um", which was already a great face-saving for He Yun, otherwise, he might have reprimanded him twice.
He Yun's eyebrows frowned slightly, she naturally felt the unswerving expression in her husband's expression, but she was a little inexplicable for a while, she didn't know that his nerve was wrong, and she actually put on a face at home, but she also knew that her husband was unhappy in the province, thinking that she had encountered something unpleasant at work, so she didn't bother with Ye Chengdong, and she didn't know that the sentence she asked casually just now actually made Ye Chengdong dissatisfied with her. …,
Sitting down next to Ye Chengdong, He Yun asked again, "Have you had dinner?" ”
Ye Chengdong said "um" again with an expressionless face, and only after a while did he speak: "Why didn't you see Xiaomei?" ”
He Yun said: "Today, Xiaomei School is on holiday, and I went out to play with my classmates, when will we leave to go back to Beijing?" ”
Ye Chengdong said: "In two days, there are still some trivial matters to deal with in the province." ”
He Yun glanced at her husband: "How should I prepare this year's gifts?" Listening to Lan'er, it's not easy to buy. ”
Ye Chengdong frowned: "You can do this kind of thing, you don't need to tell me, and Ye Lan does things with Shanshan, you don't always let him do it, there are many eyes at home." ”
He Yun glared at Ye Chengdong, but he didn't look like he was angry, but gave people a very elegant feeling: "You think I want to tell you, it's really ...... It's more troublesome...... Lan'er didn't do it for nothing, let him buy things, can our family still use the money that we lack? ”
Ye Chengdong finally relieved himself at this time, and said lightly: "Our family is not short of those few dollars, but people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, Ye Lan is doing business for the family, you can't help but let others think cranky, right?" Shanshan has been managing the family business for many years, and she doesn't know how much money she has made for her family, but is it not much talked about at home? The family is a big business, it's a big trouble, uh, what trouble did you just say? ”
He Yun said: "I don't know if you listened to me...... This year's best gift is naturally the fat loss pill and fat beauty pill, is currently the most famous baby in Beiyang Province, I heard that not only has the effect of prolonging life, but also is used as a first aid medicine for many stubborn diseases, if we can't get this kind of thing back to Beijing, we will be laughed at, but these two medicines are made by the Liang family, and they can't buy the goods at all......"
Ye Chengdong really had a feeling in his heart that he couldn't tell what it was, he naturally knew in his heart that this was something that Ye Ning had made, and of course he could understand the meaning of He Yun's words, his relationship with the Liang family had not been very good, if it was because of this...... There is really some unspeakable taste in it, presumably He Yun also thought of the embarrassment, so he asked his son Ye Lan to come forward and get some through normal market channels.
He Yun can bring up this matter, obviously the matter is very difficult to handle, if their family wants to prepare gifts, it will definitely not be prepared in eight parts out of ten, but it will require a considerable amount, not to mention the high price of these two drugs that are scared to death, the key is that they can't buy it now, so He Yun will be troubled.
Ye Chengdong naturally understood that He Yun was right, and estimated that many people had already called her, asking her to buy two pills from Beiyang and return to Beijing.
Thinking of the two old ladies in the family, Ye Chengdong couldn't help but have a little headache.
With a turn of thought, he suddenly hesitated...... Could it be that He Yun still doesn't know the origin of these two medicines?
