As soon as Yu stepped into the house, he felt that there was something different in this room.
A bouquet of hibiscus was inserted in the vase on the high table, and the bright colors neutralized the solemnity of Mrs. Xia's house over the years, and some delicate and brightly colored furnishings were added, ranging from pillows to teacups, not to mention the two girls who were nestled next to Mrs. Xia, with flowers and bones, the whole room seemed to be alive.
Yu quietly narrowed his eyes, blocked the dark light under his eyes, and stepped forward to curtsia towards Old Madam Xia.
Old Madam Xia raised her hand and asked her to get up.
She thanked Mrs. Xia and stood up straight.
"You're just sick, you shouldn't work too hard, and it doesn't matter if I don't come here." Old Madam Xia's tone was neither salty nor indifferent.
Ye Xinyi looked at Yu Shi with two points of curiosity, and saw that she was really thinner than a few days ago, the newly made autumn skirt seemed to be a lot looser on her body, her face was still a little pale, and she looked like she had no energy with her eyelids.
Yu Shi pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, a little pale and weak, "Mother is kind, but where can you be a daughter-in-law, the daughter-in-law has been lazy for a few days, and now it's okay, this morning and dusk province is naturally indispensable." ”
"Those are all false courtesies, the most important thing is the body, if you have a good one, I am afraid that the sky in Xia Mansion will collapse." Mrs. Xia's words are not good, and the few people present know what they mean.
Ye Xinyi and An Xiang each lowered their heads, pretending not to hear.
Yu's face turned slightly pale, and his throat was a little dry, "Mother has tormented her daughter-in-law." ”
"Since you're good, I'll let the third daughter-in-law return the cards to you, you're the boss's daughter-in-law, and you have to be in charge of this family." Mrs. Xia obviously didn't want to talk to Yu Shi about a lot of polite words, so she got to the point.
"My mother misunderstood, my daughter-in-law didn't come for this, these days, the third brother and sister are very good at running the house, and I have her to share it for me, and I have saved a lot. If the third brother and sister are not tired, it would be better if they could continue to help their daughter-in-law in the future. Daughter-in-law is ...... right now I really don't have the energy to take care of anything else, all I can do is to do my duty as a wife and take care of the general. Yu said, half-lowering his eyes, with a gloomy expression.
There was no mention of Cheyenne Feng in one of the words, but everyone could understand her meaning at once from her expression and tone, which made everyone suddenly remember that the person in front of them had just experienced the pain of losing a child. is seriously ill, and now it seems that he is no longer interested in anything other than Xia Changhe, which makes people ...... Compassion.
It was clear that she didn't like this daughter-in-law very much, and the cold and indifferent Mrs. Xia probably remembered what she had experienced before, and she couldn't bear to compare her heart to her heart, and her face eased by two, "If you think it's okay, then it's okay, after all, I'm not in this home anymore!" You go and discuss it with the third daughter-in-law, if she agrees, I have nothing to say. ”
Ye Xinyi quietly gave a thumbs up in his heart, amazing! This master is a master, no matter what kind of decline he is in, he has the ability to turn the tide. There's still so much to learn!
Yu Shi looked relieved, smiled on his pale face, and said with a long sigh of relief, "Thank you, mother." ”
Old Madam Xia snorted and stopped talking.
Yu Shi was not in a hurry to leave, but sat down on the side with a smile, and then raised his eyes to look at An Xiang and Ye Xinyi, who were accompanying the old lady, and said with a smile, "There are Miss An and ...... these days" When his eyes moved to Ye Xinyi, he paused slightly, and said with some hesitation, "I heard the general say that the fourth brother once gave you a name, is it called Qinghuan?" Naturally, this was asked to Ye Xinyi.
Shen Yue privately called Ye Xinyi "Huanhuan'er", Xia Changhe and Mrs. Xia naturally asked after hearing it, and they also heard the reason from the little couple. In fact, when Xia Changqing died, Ye Xinyi was only in her mother's womb for four months, even Ye Shi'an, who was born in the Medicine King Valley, was still not sure whether it was a man or a woman, but Xia Changqing seemed to be a real father and daughter, and was sure that the unborn child was a daughter, and he didn't even hesitate, so he only took that one name, Xia Qinghuan.
Xia Changhe knew that it was reasonable to tell Yu.
Ye Xinyi got up and bent his knees, and said with a slight smile, "Yes!" ”
"Then do we have to change our words to call you 'Qinghuan' in the future?" Yu asked with a smile.
"This name is still only called by my father and my family, I'm not so used to it, you still call me Xinyi." Ye Xinyi replied with an unchanged smile.
Yu's smile paused, and before he could say anything, Old Madam Xia said, "A name is just a title, whatever it is called, it is the same." Since she thinks Xin Yi is pleasing to her ears, you call her that, and I call her like this. This is biased towards Ye Xinyi, not too obvious.
Yu didn't dare to have any more doubts, smiled and responded with a "yes", and when he raised his eyes and looked at Ye Xinyi with a smile, he changed his words with kindness, "Xinyi and An Xiang accompany their mother every day, and the general also talked to me, saying that you are both filial. Mother has been looking much more radiant these days, and this is all thanks to you. ”
"This is what we should do, Madame, don't torture us." Ye Xinyi pursed the corners of his mouth and smiled, while An Xiang was busy.
Yu looked at Ye Xinyi with a smile and said, "I heard the general say that your adoptive father's family in the capital is about to arrive in Chengdu Mansion?" I have another thing to do today, that is, I want to ask you what the family likes and what taboos they have, so that they can find a yard in these two days and make them more comfortable. ”
Ye Xinyi was flattered, and hurriedly got up and bowed deeply, "Thank you, madam." It's just that my adoptive father's family is from the market, and I'm afraid it's uncomfortable to live in the house, so I have already told my grandmother about this matter in advance, and I have discussed it with my family, and I have already seen a two-entry yard in Yujia Lane in front of me. When they arrived, let them live there, close to the house, so that it would not be inconvenient, and they would be at ease. ”
"This ...... Not quite right? In the end, you were raised, and you are the great benefactor of our family, so we should be well entertained, mother, what do you say? Yu looked embarrassed, and turned to Mrs. Xia for advice. Although Ye Xinyi's identity has not been truly confirmed now, looking at Mrs. Xia's attitude, it is clear that she has already recognized it, where do others dare to say anything? Although Yu is sick, it does not mean that he has become deaf and blind, and she is clear about the affairs in this house. She not only knew about Ye Xinyi and Shen Yue's house outside, but also knew about Mrs. Xia sending a letter to the clan, and estimated that when the Ye family arrived, she would ask clearly, and Mrs. Xia would start to handle Ye Xinyi's recognition of his ancestors and return to his ancestors.
