Ye Qing didn't pay much attention to what Xu Xiaoyue said, because Ye Qing knew that Xu Xiaoyue was mostly complaining to make herself feel better.
But when Ye Qing heard Xu Xiaoyue mention the truth of Xi Yue's marriage, she suddenly looked at Xu Xiaoyue and asked, "The marriage is fake?"
Xu Xiaoyue glanced at Ye Qing and then at Huang Fei. Huang Fei didn't react much, but Ye Qing seemed quite surprised. Xu Xiaoyue nodded again: "I was just hypothesizing a possibility."
After speaking, Xu Xiaoyue noticed that Ye Qing seemed to be deep in thought, so she explained her thoughts to Ye Qing: "Think about it, if this marriage certificate is real, and Xi Yue's grandmother dies because of it, how will Xi Yue and Liang Lu live together in the future, not to mention Liang Lu and Ye Shuang..."
If Ye Shuang is involved, then there will be others. So even without Xi Yue's grandmother's affair, life wouldn't be easy. If Xi Yue had been clear-headed from the beginning and had only used a fake marriage certificate to reassure her grandmother, although the current situation is somewhat regrettable, it wouldn't be so bad.
At least she won't be stuck in such a terrible marriage again, and besides, Xi Yue is sick... If they really get married and Liang Lu upsets her, that would be a real loss.
Previously, Ye Qing only thought about the consequences caused by Zhang Sao's gossip, without considering anything else. Now, hearing Xi Yue's analysis as an observer, Ye Qing felt it made perfect sense.
Although Xu Xiaoyue didn't mean much by saying that at first, and it was more of a rant, now that she saw that Ye Qing had taken it to heart, Xu Xiaoyue thought she might as well say a little more.
So Xu Xiaoyue reorganized her words and said, "It's understandable that you and Huang Fei are angry because Aunt Zhang is talkative. And although it's not appropriate for Aunt Zhang to talk about Liang Lu in that kind of situation, I don't think Aunt Zhang has any bad intentions."
People can't be brought back to life, and Xi Yue's grandmother... the hospital has already issued several critical condition notices, so it's really inappropriate for them to blame everything on Aunt Zhang.
The only exception is Xi Yue. If Xi Yue is doing well, I don't think Xi Quan would have any grudge against you because of this. After all, you two have been through so much; what's a little setback compared to that?
Huang Fei had been listening without saying anything, but now that she heard Xu Xiaoyue say this, she looked at Ye Qing and said, "I think Xiaoyue makes a good point."
Ye Qing felt that Xu Xiaoyue had really hit the nail on the head.
Knowing what Zhang Sao had done again, Ye Qing was certainly angry, but she wasn't too worried that Xi Quan would have any grudges against her in the future, after all, the two of them had been through too much together.
Ye Qing was also worried about Xi Yue, because in this matter, Xi Yue could not be called a victim; she was at least a party involved. Just thinking about how unreasonable Xi Yue used to be made Ye Qing feel a little scared and had a headache. Ye Qing wondered if Xi Yue would blame herself if she really had a bad life in the future.
Furthermore, Ye Qing thought that if she had told Xi Yue after receiving Huang Fei's call and learning that Ye Shuang and Liang Lu were still so close, perhaps none of what happened later would have occurred.
Perhaps when Ye Qing told Xi Yue, Xi Yue might have already obtained her marriage certificate with Liang Lu, but Ye Qing felt that if Xi Yue knew, she could keep quiet for the time being, and then there wouldn't be any more gossip like Aunt Zhang.
Ye Qing was thus caught in a strange cycle of self-blame. Now, after listening to Xu Xiaoyue say so much, Ye Qing realized that perhaps she didn't need to worry so much.
Moreover, considering that Xi Yue had specifically sought him out to chat and shared her concerns, Ye Qing felt that perhaps, as Xu Xiaoyue had said, Xi Yue's marriage certificate was fake.
Having figured this out, Ye Qing's mood seemed less depressed than before.
The adults had almost finished eating when Ye Qing remembered that the two children were playing outside and hadn't eaten much yet, so she went out to call them.
Huang Fei, who hadn't said much until now, said, "You sit down, I'll go and call them back."
Huang Fei didn't want to say that the two children were closer to Xu Xiaoyue, and when they picked her up from school, they excitedly called Xu Xiaoyue their godmother.
When I turned around and called her, my tone was very calm: "Auntie."
Huang Fei felt jealous at that moment. She wanted to get closer to the two children, since she was much closer to them than Xu Xiaoyu was.
Ye Qing had no idea what Huang Fei was thinking, and had no objection to what Huang Fei said, so she let Huang Fei go and call the two children.
Soon, Huang Fei brought the two children back.
Ye Qing noticed that the two children's hands were clean, which meant Huang Fei must have washed them earlier. She handed them their bowls and chopsticks and told them to eat by themselves.
Children don't have the same focus when eating as adults, and adults often chat while eating, let alone two little kids. After a few bites, Ye Yiran and Ye Yixin started making faces at each other.
Ye Qing saw it, but didn't say anything, since the two children were actually quite obedient.
However, after eating half of their meal, the two children each took out a small bottle and smelled it. They must have smelled something, because they both frowned and wrinkled their noses almost simultaneously. Not only did they wrinkle their noses, but they also fanned their little hands under their noses, which looked extremely cute.
Xu Xiaoyue and Huang Fei both exclaimed how adorable the two children were.
Huang Fei, in particular, who used to seem like a person with little emotion, actually kissed both children.
The two children were a little surprised, but they didn't refuse.
Ye Qing smiled along at first, after all, it makes a mother happy when others like her child.
However, Ye Qing smiled and suddenly realized something. She took the bottles from the two children's hands, put them under her nose and smelled them. They were nothing special, just a snack commonly known as "rat droppings," whose main ingredient was dried tangerine peel, also called tangerine peel pills.
Actually, the taste was alright, not that bad, but because the two children had grown up abroad with Ye Qing, their tastes, while not entirely biased towards Western food, were not very accepting of some of the more distinctive flavors in Chinese cuisine, such as preserved eggs.
So Ye Qing wasn't surprised that the two children couldn't accept the taste of tangerine peel.
Looking at the two bottles in his palm, Ye Qing asked, "Where did you get these?"
The two children lowered their heads immediately upon hearing Ye Qing's words.
Seeing the child like this, Huang Fei and Xu Xiaoyue couldn't help but say, "It's no big deal, it's just a few cents."
Ye Qing looked at the two children and said, "It's not about the money, it's that this thing doesn't belong to them, and they don't have any money on them. Where did they get it from?"
