Chapter 12 She now looks very much like the person she was in the past
Chen Li cursed Ye Si in her heart, but still asked with a flattering face: "Of course, do you want to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau?"
She was so intent on stopping He Hongwen and Ye Ruyue from getting their marriage certificate that she didn't notice the cold light that flashed across Ye Siran's eyes when he lowered his eyes.
"It's useless to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau. I'd better go find Uncle He." Ye Siran's voice was still as soft as ever.
"Yes, yes, Ranran, let's go find Director He now." Chen Li anxiously pulled Ye Siran away.
Ye Siran let her be dragged around. She was never liked by her mother since she was a child, which also led to her having no friends.
After all, few people are willing to make friends with someone whom even their own mothers dislike. Chen Li is an exception, and she often stands up for her.
Ye Siran cherishes the relationship between them very much. Even though Chen Li has been asking for things, she was very sincere to her in her previous life.
Having experienced a lifetime, Ye Siran feels that she should not force friends. After all, her music is too high-brow and few people can appreciate it, and the narrow mountain top cannot accommodate too many people.
As soon as they reached the gate of the compound, they were surrounded by several aunties, each of whom enthusiastically pulled Ye Siran.
"Si Ran, I heard that you and the second son of the He family broke off the engagement. Would you like to consider my son?"
"Si Ran, I wanted to talk to your mother this morning, but I never saw her. My cousin's son said he knew you."
"Si Ran, my nephew is 1.8 meters tall and excellent in all aspects,"
Ye Siran never thought that she would be so popular after breaking off her engagement. Even though she had experienced a lot in her life, she was still a little at a loss.
"All of you move away and stop pulling the little girl. Can't you see you're scaring her?" The aunt, whose son already has a wife but no nephew, yelled.
"Haha, I'm sorry Siran. It's all my fault for being too excited. Did it hurt you?" The aunt, who wanted to help her son find a marriage, apologized sincerely.
"Siran, I'm sorry. Auntie just wants to explain my outstanding nephew."
"Oh my, our Siran is so good. Even though the engagement was called off, someone else would come and propose marriage to her very soon."
Several aunties apologized, some continued to flatter, and everyone smiled like Maitreya Buddha.
Ye Siran didn't want to blame them, so she just nodded and said it was okay, smiling sweetly.
When the aunties saw this, they kept praising her as if she were free.
Chen Li was so angry that she gritted her teeth and said, "All of you get out of here. My Ranran is going to the He Bureau now."
"Si Ran, why did you go to see Director He?" an aunt asked casually. She knew that Director He was good to this girl, so she wanted to curry favor with her.
"Of course..."
Ye Siran knew what Chen Li wanted to say, so she interrupted her immediately: "Goodbye, aunts. Uncle He asked me to have lunch with him at noon."
"It's ten minutes before get off work ends, Siran, you should go quickly!" an aunt said with a smile.
The other aunties took the initiative to make way for Ye Siran, "See you later, aunties."
"These people are really annoying. They have been blocking the way for so long. He Hongwen and Ye Ruyue must have already obtained their marriage certificate!"
"Lily, why don't you go and take a look? I'll go look for Uncle He now."
"Okay, I'll go stop them first, you better hurry!" Chen Li said and ran away.
Ye Siran looked at her anxious back and shook her head. She was not going to ask Uncle He to stop He Hongwen from getting the marriage certificate.
He Yongchang had been busy helping Ye Siran with matters related to going to the countryside the entire morning. He wanted to repay a favor, and of course not just to Ye Siran.
The Ye family was relocated to Quma County, the poorest county in Qing Province, where information and transportation were extremely inconvenient.
Although he has been using his connections to take care of them over the past few years, they are more than 2,000 kilometers away from him and it takes a long time to mail things.
There is no guarantee that those things can reach the Ye family, and he doesn't dare to mail them openly.
So he took out all his guilt towards the Ye family on Ye Siran, and treated her better than his own children.
He never dreamed of letting the little girl go to the countryside to suffer, but she asked to go, so He Yongchang naturally agreed with both hands.
While I was busy, I received a call from the Civil Affairs Bureau saying that his son went to the toilet eighteen times in the morning, and he went to the toilet every time it was his turn.
It made him laugh!
"Director He, there's a little girl at the door looking for you."
"Hurry...well, I'll go out and pick her up myself." He Yongchang said as he walked out quickly.
"Uncle He." Ye Siran greeted him with a smile. He looked well-behaved and gentle, with clear eyes.
Maybe it was because of walking, her cheeks were as pink as peach flesh, looking sweet and charming yet not ostentatious, and it was heartbreaking to look at her at first sight.
He Yongchang said kindly, "Ranran, you must be hungry. Uncle He will take you to the state-owned restaurant for dinner now."
"Okay, I haven't been to the restaurant to eat yet!" Ye Siran had a smile on his face and his voice was sweet.
"Ranran, just order whatever you want to eat. Uncle He will let you eat as much as you want." He Yongchang laughed three times after saying this.
Ye Siran ordered three dishes, one of which was her favorite, and two of which were He Yongchang’s favorites.
He Yongchang didn't expect that the timid Ye Siran was so careful and could remember his taste. "Order two more of what Ranran likes."
"That's enough. If you order more, it will be wasted."
"Ranran is such a good girl. Hongwen regretted it and has been refusing to get married with your sister. You..."
"Uncle He, I have made up my mind to leave. You taught me not to just wait to be loved, but to learn to love myself. I want to love those who are worthy of my love."
He Yongchang looked at Ye Siran seriously. Only then did he realize that his son was not worthy of the girl in front of him, either in appearance or courage.
He gave up the idea of persuading her again, "Of course, uncle can see that you really liked Hongwen before."
"I really liked her before, and I still like her now, but I also know that a forced melon is not sweet. Besides, life is not only about love, but also about family."
"Ranran is really great. Your grandparents live in the northwest, about 2,000 kilometers away from us."
"I'm not afraid of the distance. A few days ago I dreamed that my grandma was sick. Uncle He, can you let me leave as soon as possible?"
"Since Ranran has decided to go, Uncle He will set the departure time at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning.
The living conditions there are difficult and physical damage is inevitable. I have two thousand taels of national food coupons and more than six hundred yuan. ”
He Yongchang handed a small cloth bag to Ye Siran, "Ranran, do you dare to carry so much? Do you have the confidence to keep these things?"
"Uncle He, rest assured. I will live up to your expectations. My stepfather secretly gave me two thousand yuan last night to buy my marriage contract and the university quota you gave me."
He Yongchang felt that Ye Siran was like a different person last night. The timidity and pettiness of the past were completely gone, leaving only an unfamiliar calmness.
She now looked like the person she used to be. The more He Yongchang looked at her, the more he liked her. In his heart, he cursed Song Chunhua a thousand times.
If Song Chunhua hadn't done something bad back then, that man would have married Lu Ran, and their daughter would have looked like the girl in front of us.
