Chapter 10 No Need to Please Anyone
After dinner, Old Mrs. Ye took out some osmanthus candy with a smile.
She used a knife to cut the two thumb-sized bones into eight pieces, each the size of a little finger.
"Oh my, these are Jin'er and Huan'er's candies. You're so generous." Ye Daquan looked proud.
Old Mrs. Ye also smiled and said, "Our children are suffering, so we old men won't eat it. Yong'er, Xuan'er, Peng'er, Jinhua and Yinhua, you eat it."
Ye Yong was already 19 years old, a quiet and honest young man. He waved his hand and said, "I don't like it, you guys eat it. I'll chop the firewood first while the moonlight is good."
Then he left the house.
Ye Jinhua pouted: "I don't want to eat either! Let's go back to the house first."
This was originally the candy her father bought with borrowed money, but he only gave it to Ye Jiner and her sister. Now they are sharing it out hypocritically.
It's really shameless of him to use the Ye family's money to pretend to be generous!
"You stupid girl, what's wrong with your attitude!" Ye Daquan was annoyed and was about to lose his temper.
Ye Caiping hurriedly said, "Brother, stop arguing. If you don't like it, then don't eat it. Why force the child to do anything?"
"Can……"
"Okay, listen to your little sister." said Old Man Ye.
Although Ye Daquan was unwilling, since his younger sister and father had spoken, he had no choice but to give up.
"So sweet." Ye Peng from the second room stepped forward, took one and put it in his mouth, "Yinhua, you eat it."
He put the candy in Ye Yinhua's hand.
Ye Yinhua was the youngest, only nine years old. She finally got to eat the candy she had been longing for and smiled from ear to ear.
Ye Peng put the candy in Ye Jin'er and Ye Huan'er's hands again and said softly, "Cousins, you guys should try it too."
"Yeah." Ye Jin'er looked at Ye Peng with red eyes and nodded gratefully.
The second branch of the Ye family has always been the best to them, not only now but also in the past. Except for the eldest uncle, no one in the first wife likes them.
Ye Daquan, Ye Erquan and Wei ate the remaining candies, leaving only one, which Ye Peng took.
After everyone went back to their rooms, Ye Peng took the candy and took Ye Yinhua to the sisters' room.
Ye Jinhua was sitting by the bed sewing shoe soles.
"Here!" Ye Peng put the candy on the chest of drawers and said cheerfully, "Okay, big sister, the past is the past, and I have changed. Don't be angry."
"Don't be angry, sister." Ye Yinhua also advised.
Ye Jinhua's face darkened, and she slammed her shoe sole on the chest of drawers:
"She drained all our money, causing my eldest brother to be unable to marry at the age of 19, and causing my second brother to drop out of school! She also made my mother so angry that she went back to her parents' home! You are so tolerant! You are so generous! It's only because she didn't bring harm to your second branch!"
Ye Peng was stunned for a moment, then he said with a dark face: "Yes, yes, we are all bad guys, okay!"
After saying that, he turned and walked out the door. Ye Jinhua's scolding came from behind him:
"Hmph, it's easy to talk when you're not in trouble! Why should I forgive this and that? Stop meddling in other people's business!"
Ye Peng went out, leaving Ye Yinhua standing there alone with an embarrassed look on her face.
In order to ease the embarrassment, Ye Yinhua had to make her bed.
…
Ye Caiping took her two daughters back to her room.
After closing the door, Ye Caiping sat on the bed and said:
"You don't have to please anyone. Let the eldest house be prejudiced against us. Just do your own duty, don't cause trouble, don't stir up trouble, that's all. I will pay back what I owed to the Ye family."
Ye Jin'er and Ye Huan'er were stunned and their eyes turned red.
"But...we want to live here." Ye Jin'er said, "Grandpa said that after mom gets married, we will stay here."
"After three months, mother won't marry again." Ye Caiping sighed, "But I will take you to move out."
"Move out?" The two sisters were surprised.
"Yes. Yesterday I made an agreement with your aunt. Within three months, you must either marry off or pay her back thirty taels. This way, she won't interfere with me anymore. Then I will take you out and we won't have to live under someone else's roof anymore."
The sisters' eyes lit up.
Although they changed their names, they were still from my maternal grandparents' family, and my aunt and cousins didn't like them.
No matter how much your uncles dote on you, you are still living under someone else's roof.
When my mother gets married, their situation will become even more difficult.
After hearing what Ye Caiping said, the two sisters felt their noses sore and their uneasy hearts finally settled down.
"Mother!" The two sisters threw themselves into Ye Caiping's arms at the same time.
Ye Caiping was knocked backwards by them.
She came here through time and space, and she actually had no feelings for them, and she only educated them out of a sense of responsibility.
But now, with this hug, Ye Caiping only felt warm in her heart, and the corners of her lips couldn't help but slightly curl up.
Okay, this feeling isn't bad.
"But...how does mother earn thirty taels?" Ye Jin'er raised her head.
"Don't worry, I have plenty of ways." Ye Caiping said with a smile, "Just remember, you don't have to please anyone, but you can't cause trouble either. Do your duty well and treat others sincerely."
"After we move out, if we get along well with these people, we will continue to be relatives. If we don't, we will become strangers. It's that simple."
"Um."
The two sisters nodded deeply. For some reason, they were full of confidence in their mother.
Their mother had never given them this kind of feeling before. Whenever something happened, she would just scold them for being girls and money-losing goods, and said that they were despised because they didn't have a penis.
Although their mother became a little strange after being divorced, this change made them feel safe.
