Ye Changhong was startled by Jiao Lingyu's reaction. "Mom, why are you so loud? Didn't I tell you it was Grandpa who said that?"
Jiao Lingyu's hands couldn't help shaking, "Impossible, if your grandfather knew, how could it be possible-"
She didn't say anything else. Those who understand will understand.
Given the old man's personality, if he knew she had done such a thing, how could he treat it as nothing?
Besides, it had been so many years since that incident, and the people she had approached had all taken some money and moved away because their plans had failed. They had sworn that they would never come to Beijing again in their lifetime, so even if they did, how could they possibly tell others about such a thing?
"Okay, you two go out first. Your mother and I have something to talk about." Ye Weicheng said.
Ye Shi and Ye Changhong left the room reluctantly.
Ye Weicheng looked at the panicked Jiao Lingyu and asked, "If you are so afraid of the old man, why did you do that?"
Unfortunately, it was not done cleanly, leaving such a big handle.
Jiao Lingyu forced herself to calm down, walked to her husband's side, and asked softly, "Does the old man really know?"
Ye Weicheng nodded, "Yes, he knows everything."
"Then why—why didn't he ever say that?" Jiao Lingyu was confused.
Ye Weicheng shook his head, "I don't know." He really didn't understand what old man was thinking, but when he thought about it carefully, in the past ten years, especially after Ye Changqing left Beijing, the old man seemed to have never come to this house again. Sometimes he and Lingyu took the two children to see him, but he was either busy with work or not in the compound. He never spoke a serious word to them, nor had they eaten a meal at the same table.
In the past ten years, whenever he had important matters that required the old man's help, the old man always ignored him, letting him explain himself and not bother him unless necessary.
He hadn't thought much about this attitude before. After all, the old man was not an easy person to get along with.
But now that I think about it, there is actually a reason why the old man has this attitude towards them.
"Weicheng, what should we do now? Will your father--"
Ye Weicheng was not as scared as Jiao Lingyu. He felt that his parents would not do anything. After all, they were a family and they would prosper together and suffer together.
How could the old man, who values the family honor so much, allow such a scandal to break out in the family?
"It shouldn't be a problem. If there was a problem, it would have happened long ago. Why wait until now?" He glanced at the things in the room and said, "Let's move today. Don't take anything you shouldn't take, otherwise the old man will use this as an excuse to make trouble."
Jiao Lingyu felt a little relieved, but she was unwilling to move out of the courtyard house and live in an apartment building like ordinary people. Only by living in such a house could she show her unique status.
"Weicheng, how about we ask around and see if there are any courtyard houses like this for sale? We can buy one for ourselves, preferably one that's bigger than this one. We have plenty of money anyway."
Speaking of money, Ye Weicheng frowned again, "Today, the old man mentioned returning the house to Ye Changqing, so this money——"
Jiao Lingyu screamed, "Impossible! I've always been in charge of this money. The Ye family's expenses all come in and out of this money. I'm the eldest daughter-in-law in the eldest house. No matter what, I should be in charge of it. Why should I take it out?"
