The antique tables, chairs, blue and white tableware in the hall are exquisite. Ye Mingchao ordered the box "Huanxi Sha", and even the name is very charming. Yan Xinyi stepped on the bluestone slab, strolled over from the top of the lotus pond, crossed the broken bridge, pushed open the door of "Huanxi Sha", and was amazed, and actually moved the Jiangnan painting boat indoors.

Ye Mingchao was already waiting in the painting boat, he was sitting under the artificial peach blossom tree, and he was wearing a Chinese costume very appropriately. Seeing Yan Xinyi push the door in, he politely got up to greet him, and his body touched the peach branch, and there were petals falling down, just falling on his hair, like a jade son. Yan Xinyi couldn't help but think that that day outside the glazed tile-roofed pavilion in Buzheng Park, she had fantasized about the beautiful picture of "Mo Shangren is like jade, and the son is unparalleled in the world", and the chic and beautiful man that came to mind at that time was the image of Ye Mingchao, and at this moment he was smiling and standing in front of her, as bright as a jade tree in front of the wind, the picture was so beautiful that she was a little dizzy.

"What are you doing?" Ye Mingchao asked.

Yan Xinyi suddenly came back to her senses, "It's nothing, it's just a bit of a time travel, like a dream." ”

Ye Mingchao smiled, that smile was a little childish, "That night, I saw that you were very interested in the red wall and thought that you should like such a place, so I chose this restaurant." It had just opened, and business was booming. ”

He held out his hand to her and tried to help her to the boat. She avoided his hand and jumped onto the boat herself, looking back, his eyes darkened, but there was still a smile on her lips. She smiled embarrassedly and sat down opposite Ye Mingchao's position just now. Ye Mingchao then also sat down.

"See what you want to eat?" He handed the menu to Yan Xinyi.

Yan Xinyi immediately handed the menu back again, "I'm not good at ordering, or you can come, I'm not taboo." ”

Ye Mingchao smiled brightly, "I guessed that it would be like this, so I already ordered it first." ”

Yan Xinyi was slightly stunned, and then reacted, the last time they ate together in the private room of the restaurant, he saw that she was not good at ordering. She sighed secretly, her appearance is amazingly high, her career is successful, and she is so hearted, if she hadn't secretly promised Zhong Kenan first, she would have fallen in love with him, right?

Ye Mingchao had already called the waiter to serve the food, and he himself personally fiddled with the blue and white tea set and brewed Hangzhou West Lake Longjing tea for Yan Xinyi. He is calm, skillful and handsome. He served Yan Xinyi a cup of fragrant tea with both hands, Yan Xinyi took it, Longjing tea was emerald green, sweet and refreshing, fragrant and fragrant, and had an endless aftertaste. "It is said that Jia Ming is like a beautiful woman, but in fact, Jia Ming can also be like a beautiful man", she blurted out.

"Is that a compliment to me?" It is true that 'beauty' is often used to refer to men, and it has a long tradition. The 'beauty' in the Book of Songs often refers to men. Ye Mingchao stared at her, but he was not scorching or rude. The two rays of light in his eyes were as soft as the gauze lamps on the roof.

Yan Xinyi was stunned, she just said it casually, she didn't know that "beauty" would also be used to refer to men, so she was ashamed of her loneliness and almost couldn't speak. Ye Mingchao sat quietly with a smile on his lips. They looked at each other like this, until the waitress in ancient costume sent Xi Shi tofu soup, and introduced, Xi Shi tofu soup is a classic dish in Jiangsu and Zhejiang cuisine, the tofu is as delicate as snow, the soup is rich and fragrant, and then accompanied by lean meat, shrimp, fungus, the taste is quite rich.

"The word 'Xi Shi' alone makes people have a kind of charming reverie." Ye Mingchao said with a smile, "This time it's not a good tea like a beauty, but a tofu like a beautiful woman, let's taste it." ”

Yan Xinyi took a big sip, which was exceptionally tender and delicious. She had just finished a full bowl of tofu soup and served a bowl of shrimp rice with Jiangnan wing soup, and a goblet was upside down in the delicate glass bowl, filled with shrimp and choy sum, and there was a golden and steaming fried rice next to it. The waiter carried the teapot with the soup stock to the millet, only to hear the sound of "zilazila", and then poured the goblet into it, and the shrimp fell into the golden soup, just like the hazy and gentle sunrise on the West Lake, full of color and fragrance.

Yan Xinyi couldn't wait to taste it, and after eating a big bowl, she realized that her eating appearance was too ungentle, on the other hand, Ye Mingchao had thoughtful table etiquette and chewed slowly.

"What's bothering you?" She was worried that her eating appearance would fall into Ye Mingchao's eyes, and she would be commented by him as "very real and cute", so she hurriedly found a topic first.

Ye Mingchao put down his chopsticks, and a trace of melancholy crossed his eyebrows, "It's about my mother, how can I say it, her ...... It's too strong, you have to interfere in everything, on the night of our birthday, you also saw and heard, she didn't consider my needs at all, no matter what kind of girl I liked, it was just wishful thinking, and I had to find a daughter-in-law who was the right person. "

"Aren't all wealthy families like this, pay attention to the right family. You are rich and I am noble, you know a lot and I can keep up with the rhythm, but such a wealthy marriage will last for a long time. Yan Xinyi felt that Hu Man's thoughts were normal, but her dog-eyed appearance and the behavior of the wicked suing first made people particularly annoyed.

"But my dad wouldn't have that idea, he wanted me to marry someone I really loved, but my mom ......" he smiled wryly and didn't say anything more.

"Your mother has the final say in your family's affairs?" Yan Xinyi asked tentatively.

"That's not it, but my dad doesn't want to quarrel with my mom all the time, and he will give her a few points in everything." He shook his head helplessly, "My mother seems to be very controlling and harsh on me, and no matter how hard I try, I can't satisfy her. "

"Do you have any siblings?" She asked again.

"No, I am the only son in our family." He saw the confusion in her eyes, the deep-rooted traditional concept of a wealthy family is to have many sons and many blessings, how can there be only one son? "It is said that my mother had a difficult birth when she gave birth to me, and she almost died, and then she didn't dare to have another child."

She nodded clearly, "Can you tell me how your mother and son get along since you were a child?" ”

There was some strange sadness in his eyes, "Actually, since I was a child, I didn't spend much time with my mother, and in my memory, she was probably busy with work and never played with me. But she is very strict with me, with a lot of rules and high standards. She is a very purposeful person, always thinks that she is absolutely right, must emphasize her absolute authority, and does not care what I think. My life seems to have been under her control, and I still can't get rid of it. I'd love to get rid of her influence on me, but I don't have enough strength, so I'd like to ask you for help. ”

"I'll take the liberty of asking a question first." Yan Xinyi took the opportunity to ask first, "Your parents' feelings, okay?" ”

"Good." Ye Mingchao replied without hesitation, "They both love each other deeply and regard each other as the only love of their lives." ”

Yan Xinyi's eyes condensed a touch of judgment, as if she wanted to peep through his lies, because of the previous two contacts, she felt that Ye Shizhong and Hu Man were not like a loving couple, at least she couldn't see Ye Shizhong's love for Hu Man, only polite, and even a little jealous.

"What, do you have any different opinions?" Ye Mingchao sensed her thoughts.

The woman who resembled Li Xuemei appeared in Yan Xinyi's mind, and she deliberately tried to be, "Then can you guarantee that your father is absolutely loyal to your mother, and there is no other woman outside?" ”

"I think it's almost zero." Ye Mingchao replied, "I know my father, he is a clean and self-righteous person, and he never likes to mess with flowers and grass, and I am the same." ”

The expression is everyone's own expression, and everyone can put it away freely, or even hide it. But even if it's well disguised, it takes a process. A person's brain transmits commands through the central nervous system, and it always takes a second to carry them out. In this second, the eyes, mouth, nose, eyebrows may all convey a change in the heart. Yan Xinyi tried to distinguish the changes in Ye Mingchao's heart from the change in his expression. However, she did not see any signs of lying or concealment.

Ye Mingchao's last "the same as me" was a bit of an oath, Yan Xinyi smiled, whether Ye Mingchao was clean or not had nothing to do with her, and she was not interested in verifying.

"It seems like it's a bit far away, and my mom is the point." Ye Mingchao pulled the topic back.

"From a psychological point of view, if a person is very controlling, it often means that the person is insecure and needs to control others because of anxiety...... Yan Xinyi organized the appropriate wording, "I don't know your mother, so I don't know what the main reason for her insecurity is." I suggest that you understand your mother's anxiety more, see what kind of psychology and emotions are behind her desire to control, and then try to communicate with her. ”

Ye Mingchao nodded clearly, "When you say this, I probably understand that her anxiety should be mainly because of me, she feels that I can't become a qualified group heir yet, I can't meet the standards in her mind, and I really haven't done well enough." If I am good enough and strong enough to support the entire group on her own, maybe she will not be bent on consolidating the development of the group through marriage. ”

"I've always felt that God is fair to everyone." Yan Xinyi said frankly, "God has given the wealthy unlimited scenery, but at the same time, it has also put many restricted seals. Since ancient times, there has been a tradition of marriage between large families, and there will be gains and losses, and there will be gains and losses. ”

"You mean, I've already gotten infinite scenery, so I should be willing to accept the seal as well?" Ye Mingchao's face was gloomy and troubled.

"I'm just talking about things." She shrugged, "I have no right to interfere in your private affairs, it is mainly up to you." ”
