Chapter 32 Return to the Ye family's old house
Xia Xing secretly gritted his gums, for fear that he would make a fuss about picking himself up like last night, "It's almost fine." ”
"Oh, let's go." He said, but the pace slowed down significantly.
"Where exactly?" Xia Xing sat in the co-pilot, looked at Ye Junyang, who was concentrating on driving, and asked again.
"Didn't you say I'll take you with me next time I get home?" Ye Junyang took the time to glance at Xia Xing, and then slammed the steering wheel, easily overtaking a car in front of him.
"So, we're going back to the old mansion now?" Xia Xing was surprised.
"What? Repented? Ye Junyang raised his eyebrows and said lightly.
"No, I mean, you'll have to tell me in advance, I didn't have time to prepare anything." Xia Xing said in a low voice.
Ye Junyang sneered, "It's not the first time I've seen them, what is there to prepare, besides, they don't lack anything." ”
Xia Xing frowned, "It's their business whether they lack or not, and whether they send something or not is our problem." ”
"Oh?" Ye Junyang laughed, "Then you tell me what do you want to prepare?" ”
"I ......" Xia Xing was choked for a while, not to mention, she really didn't pay attention to the preferences of the two old men, in comparison, Ye Junyang thought much more thoughtfully than her every time she went to her parents' house.
In this way, it is true that she is not good enough.
When thinking like this, Ye Junyang had already parked the car next to an old street, Xia Xing looked left and right, and found that it was not on the way to the old house, "Why stop here?" She asked, confused.
Ye Junyang opened her car door, "Didn't you say you wanted to prepare something?" The osmanthus cake and rose cake in this old Wu Ji workshop are all used to eating by your mother-in-law. ”
When Xia Xing heard this, he hurriedly got out of the car, looked up at the signboard with the word "Wu Ji" on his head, and then looked at the long queue of people who came to buy things at the door. It should be a time-honored brand.
"Mr. Ye came to buy rose cakes for the old lady again?" An old woman with an apron greeted Ye Junyang with a smile from afar.
Xia Xing thought that he would have to wait in line for a long time, but he didn't expect that the boss here also knew him.
Ye Junyang grinned and said, "Yes, Mrs. Wu, your business is really getting better and better." ”
Mrs. Wu smiled and took out two cardboard boxes, "It's just barely making ends meet, and it's thanks to you old customers who take care of me." ”
Ye Junyang smiled but did not speak. I just watched Mrs. Wu put pastries into the box.
"It's still the same old rules, right?" Mrs. Wu looked up at Ye Junyang while loading it in.
"Yes, the old rules." Ye Junyang replied.
"Alright, in duplicate." Mrs. Wu said and handed over the carton in her hand.
Xia Xing immediately reached out and took it. A burst of sweetness instantly hit the nose.
Mrs. Wu was stunned and looked at Ye Junyang with a smile, "This Nizi is very smart, why haven't I seen it before?" ”
"Oh, I forgot to introduce you," Ye Junyang pulled Xia Xing over to Mrs. Wu and said, "This is my wife, Xia Xing." There is a chance that you will visit your store more often in the future. ”
Xia Xingwan smiled and politely greeted Mrs. Wu. "Hello, Mrs. Wu."
"Ouch, it turned out to be Mrs. Ye, hello, hello." Mrs. Wu smiled happily, "Mr. Ye really has a good eye, but he is very husband and wife with you." ”
Husband and wife? Xia Xing secretly glanced at Ye Junyang, who was smiling silently, and couldn't understand what he was similar to him.
Mrs. Wu didn't know if she could see Xia Xing's doubts, and patiently explained to Xia Xing kindly, "Mrs. Ye, it's not like you look like a husband and wife, sometimes two people stand in front of you, and you can know that they can't live long with just one glance." ”
"Then Mrs. Wu, can you show me, can I live with her for a long time?" Before Xia Xing could speak, Ye Junyang put his arm around Xia Xing's shoulders and looked at Mrs. Wu with interest and asked.
This made Xia Xing a little nervous as well.
"I see, I can't break up." Mrs. Wu looked at them with a smile and said.
Ye Junyang and Xia Xing were stunned at the same time, "Hahaha, Mrs. Wu, then I will accept your good words." Ye Junyang smiled heartily. I won't bother you with your business, and I'll see you next time. ”
"The most people I've dealt with in my life are people, don't believe what I say." Mrs. Wu was still chasing after her, Ye Junyang turned around and smiled and shook her head, and then pulled Xia Xing into the car.
He fastened his seat belt, turned his head and looked at Xia Xing with a smile, "It's not that I don't want to let you go, you didn't hear it just now, we can't break up." ”
Xia Xing sat in the co-pilot, looking at Ye Junyang, who had been smiling since he got into the car, "Do you believe the nonsense you say?" ”
Ye Junyang was not annoyed, his eyes were aimed at the rearview mirror and reversed the car, "Is it nonsense, one day we will all know." ”
Xia Xing was silent and did not speak.
The car quickly turned to the spacious avenue, and after walking for a long time, I vaguely saw the solemn and magnificent old mansion of the Ye family. Xia Xing remembered that when he first followed Ye Junyang to meet his parents, he had the feeling of traveling back to the mansion with a deep courtyard in the past.
The trees on both sides of the road were lush and green, and they continued to the old house, Ye Junyang parked the car outside the gate, and the housekeeper at the door saw them and hurriedly walked over to say hello.
"Uncle Zhang, how are my parents doing?" Ye Junyang asked as he pulled Xia Xing as he walked.
"Madame is nothing, and after every day she eats she either plays a little card with the other ladies, or feeds the fish in the pond in the garden." The old butler followed behind, "It's the old man...... I've been having a bad appetite lately, so I only ate one or two bites of rice at noon today and put the bowl down. ”
Ye Junyang's eyebrows furrowed, "Have you asked Uncle Zhao to come over and take a look?" ”
The housekeeper sighed and shook his head slowly, "Madame went to invite me several times, but the lord stopped me, and always said that he was fine." But others are decreasing day by day, and everyone is looking at it! ”
When Ye Junyang heard this, he walked faster again, and his tone was a little reproachful, "Why don't you send someone to talk to me!" ”
The old housekeeper opened his mouth, looked up at Ye Junyang and immediately buried it.
"The old man won't let you?" Ye Junyang asked without looking back.
"What do you mean...... Be...... You're busy with work, so I don't have to bother you with anything serious. The butler said with a sigh of relief.
Ye Junyang nodded clearly, where is he worried that he is busy with work, it is obvious that the old man is still angry with himself!
"Okay, I got it. You go and get busy, I'll just go in with Xia Xing by myself. ”
"Okay," the butler paused, "then I'll go to the kitchen and let me know, and say that you and the young grandmother are having dinner at home tonight?" ”
Ye Junyang thought for a moment and waved his hand, "Go ahead." ”
"Alas!" The butler immediately smiled and walked down the opposite hallway.
"You don't mind if you go back after dinner at home, do you?"
Xia Xing raised his head, "I came here to accompany my parents, of course I don't mind." ”
Ye Junyang nodded, holding her hand tightly.
The two walked all the way through the beautiful garden, then walked to the main hall, gently pushed the door open, Xia Xing saw that Ye Mu was quietly lying on a rattan chair for a nap, and Xiao Luo on the side was quietly shaking a feather fan next to Ye Mu.
Seeing Ye Junyang and Xia Xing coming in at the same time, Xiao Luo's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly stood up and planned to wake up Ye Mu.
"Shh Xia Xing stretched out a finger and put it in the middle of his mouth, then walked over gently, took the fan in Xiao Luo's hand and shook it slowly.
Ye Junyang stood in the middle of the house, motionless looking at the quiet situation in front of him.
Xia Xing shook for a long time, and found that Ye Junyang was still there, so he hurriedly waved his hand at Ye Junyang, and told Ye Junyang with his lips that he didn't care about her, just go to his father.
After Ye Junyang understood, he handed the pastry in his hand to Xiao Luo, who was also standing there, and took a deep look at Xia Xing before turning around and walking out.
Xiao Luo looked up at the wall clock on the wall, and it was about half an hour before Mrs. woke up, so she saluted Xia Xing and quietly withdrew.
Xia Xing sat upright on the small stool next to him, his eyes looked at the furnishings in the room, according to Ye Junyang, this old house of the Ye family was actually handed down from the ancestors for generations, although the age is very old, but Ye's father often pays attention to repairs on weekdays, so it is basically maintained as it is, especially the antique furniture in this room, which makes people sit in it and feel as calm as water.
I remember that when they got married, Xia Xing also asked Ye Junyang why he didn't live in the old house, at that time Ye Junyang said that he was worried that she would not be used to living in such a place with many rules, but now that he thinks about it carefully, it is probably because he knew that his parents were not very favorable to this marriage, so he simply moved out. So as not to embarrass each other.
At this time, Ye Mu muttered, Xia Xing's thoughts were immediately pulled back, thinking that she was hot, and the movement of shaking the fan in her hand couldn't help but speed up. Unexpectedly, she just frowned slightly, then turned over and fell asleep again.
Xia Xing secretly exhaled, every time he saw Mother Ye before, he always felt that she looked dignified and self-controlled, polite and detached to herself, so she had never observed her carefully, but now that she was so close, Xia Xing took a closer look, although Mother Ye was also over the age of sixties, but in the end, she was well maintained, her skin was fair and moist, her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, and she only had a thin lip, and she didn't point to Zhu, so it seemed that Ye Junyang was actually more like his mother.
The door was gently pushed open from the outside, Xia Xing retracted his gaze and turned his head to look over, it was Xiao Luo who came back with the rose cake and osmanthus cake that had been arranged.
"Where's the smell of rose crisp?" Mother Ye woke up with sleepy eyes.
Xia Xing hurriedly stood up, and secretly praised Xiao Luo's time in his heart.
"Madame's nose is really smart, this is the young master, the young grandmother brought it back to you." Xiao Luo hurriedly smiled and stepped forward to help Ye Mu up.
