Chapter 44: In Front of the Old Door

Ye Mingze's lips twitched twice: "It's not ......"

Ye Chutang was surprised: "You moved?" ”

Immediately, she seemed to remember something, and smiled: "Oh yes, the second uncle has been promoted now, and the mansion will naturally change." I just don't know where you live now? ”

Cold sweat broke out on Ye Mingze's forehead, and those words were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say anything.

After a while, he said with difficulty: "In, in Willow Bend Lane......"

Ye Jingyan raised his head when he heard this, surprised and delighted: "So, isn't it on the same street as our house?" That's good, it's much more convenient for us to see each other in the future. ”

Ye Mingze swallowed his saliva, not knowing how to take it down.

He looked at the little guy on the side frantically: "You, you go back first!" When I returned to my father and mother, I said, just said-cousin, they have returned to Beijing! ”

The little guy who carried him had never seen Ye Chutang and a few people, although he looked at his master's reaction a little strangely, but he didn't dare to ask more, and immediately responded: "Yes!" ”

However, as soon as he turned to leave, he heard the clear and clean voice of a woman behind him.

"Mingze, why are you in such a hurry?"

Ye Chutang had a faint smile on the corner of his lips, and said softly: "We have been in the dust all the way, where is there a small servant who doesn't get dressed and groomed, so we will directly send a little girl back to pass on the truth of the elders?" I don't know, it's because my Ye family is uneducated and doesn't understand the rules. ”

Ye Mingze suddenly felt a slap in the face.

Isn't she saying that he doesn't understand bullshit and doesn't understand etiquette!?

The little guy turned around, hesitant.

It seems that this woman is really the Ye family, when it comes to seniority, her master still has to respectfully shout "cousin", so who is this listening to?

Ye Mingze smiled reluctantly: "Didn't I also want my family to know the news of your return earlier, and be happy together?" I-"

Ye Chutang interrupted him lightly, "Three years have passed, and it's not a moment and a half." ”

It is clear that her tone is calm and gentle, and even her eyebrows and eyes are warm, and she has a little smile, but as soon as these words came out, she inexplicably had an irreversible momentum.

Ye Mingze's hand hanging by his side was tight and loose, loose and tight, and his heart was like numbness.

He pursed his lips and looked at Ye Chutang, feeling extremely strange for a while.

Three years is not a long time, but it is not a short time.

In my memory, the frail, sickly, weak and quiet cousin has faded away from the youthful and cowardly nature between her eyebrows and eyes, and has been replaced by a calm and introverted like a deep pool of still water.

The facial features are clearly familiar, but this body is graceful and bearing, but it is like two people in the past.

If it is said that Ye Chutang in the past was a pearl covered with dust, it is beautiful, but it is very inconspicuous because of that softness and quietness.

The current Ye Chutang is like washing away the lead, and gradually blooming with her brilliant brilliance, which is difficult to ignore.

Ye Mingze had to suppress the boredom in his heart, let the little guy come back, and waited for Ye Chutang and a few people to eat on the side.

This scene is really rare and has attracted the attention of many people around.

From time to time, someone whispered.

"That woman is Ye Mingze's cousin? When did he have such a relative in his family? ”

"Xu is from his hometown? After all, Lord Ye is now soaring! ”

"It doesn't look like it...... Can ordinary people raise such a girl? And even if you don't talk about her, the two young sons next to her are also very generous, even the little doll is sensible and well-behaved, and she is also generous and untimid in such a place, this is not like an ordinary background......"

"Wait! I remember! Lord Ye used to have a brother who was also an official in Beijing, and it seemed that he had a higher official position than him at that time! It's like, it's like it's called...... Ye Zheng? ”

"Yes, yes! That's right! I remember this too! That Lord Ye Zheng back then was young and promising, and his future was immeasurable! It was said that he was likely to become the youngest squire of the Criminal Department, but unfortunately he later angered Long Yan and was demoted out of Beijing, and it didn't take long to hear that there was an accident on the road, and the family was gone! I didn't expect that several of his bloodlines were still alive? ”

Most of the people who enter and leave Lanyue Tower are either rich or expensive, even if they are accidentally familiar with the name Ye Zheng, they are almost promoted to what it means to be promoted to the squire of the Criminal Department.

What's more, this person and Ye Heng, who is now in the limelight, are still brothers.

For a while, everyone's gaze at Ye Chutang and several people had subtle changes.

I don't know who whispered: "It's a pity, my father and brother are not here, what can a weak woman do with a few young brothers and sisters?" ”

……

Ye Chutang turned a blind eye to the scrutiny and discussion around him, and finished the meal slowly.

Ye Mingze next to him was already waiting in a hurry, but he didn't dare to urge, and finally waited for Ye Chutang and them to finish eating, so he couldn't wait to ask, "Now we can go back, right?" I'm going to have someone find a carriage to come over!" ”

Ye Chutang wiped the corners of Xiao Wu's mouth with a handkerchief and hugged her into his arms, only then did he turn around and refuse with a smile.

"Thanks, but no, we have a carriage outside. In addition, since they all live in Liuwan Lane, then you can go back with us, which happens to save trouble, how about it? ”

Ye Mingze was very resistant in his heart, and was thinking about how to refuse, when he saw Ye Jingyan call Xiao Er to come over and settle the bill.

He immediately said, "I'll invite this meal!" ”

Ye Jingyan looked at Ye Chutang hesitantly, Ye Chutang shook his head, and was about to refuse, but Ye Mingze said again: "Hey-cousin, you finally came back, how can you still pay for this meal?" I often come to this Lanyue Building, just record it in my account! ”

When it comes to money, Ye Mingze's confidence seems to have returned a little.

Fang didn't pay much attention to it, and at this time he found that Ye Chutang and the others were dressed very simply.

Also, without the blessing of their parents, they don't know how poor and hard they have lived in the past few years!

This made Ye Mingze have a strong sense of superiority in his heart, and even the fear and boredom of seeing Ye Chutang and the others before dissipated a lot.

Oh, yes!

Isn't it just a few helpless and broken households, what's there to be afraid of!?

Ye Mingze added: "You don't know, the price of this Lanyue Building has risen now, and it costs a lot of money for a meal." ”

The implication is that Ye Chutang can't afford it.

Ye Chutang's eyelashes moved slightly, as if he didn't hear his yin and yang weirdness, and responded with a smile: "Then thank you." ”

Ye Jingyan immediately put away the purse that had not been opened at all, and thanked Ye Mingze: "Cousin is so polite, thank you so much." ”

"Hiccup~"

Xiao Wu, who was nested in Ye Chutang's arms, suddenly burped, and a touch of sadness flashed on his fleshy little face.

- Say it earlier! She'll just order a few more dishes!

……

A quarter of an hour later, the carriage turned into Willow Bend Lane and stopped in front of a mansion.

The two stone lions in front of the door are magnificent, and the golden pen on the door plaque is strong: Ye Fu.

Ye Yunfeng looked at this familiar door, his long-suppressed mood surged, and he turned around and shouted, "Sister! We're home! ”

As he spoke, he jumped out of the carriage and was about to pass.

However, at this moment, the closed door was suddenly opened from the inside.

A butler-like figure poked his head out of it.

Ye Yunfeng suddenly stopped in place, stunned - how could there be strangers in their house?

The next moment, he heard the man shouting at Ye Mingze behind him, "Hey, hey! Second young master! Why did you come back? I've been waiting for you for half an hour! ”
