Chapter 190 The melon is coming
Zhou Ziyang hurried to the hall, but did not see Xie.
He then politely greeted Mrs. Du and Old Lady Ye.
Mrs. Du was a little unhappy about the concubine thing just now, so she just smiled and said, "Today is the young master's birthday, congratulations."
Ye Daquan: “Humph!”
No matter how stupid Zhou Ziyang was, he could see that the Ye family was dissatisfied with him. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Thank you, Auntie. I'll go to the kitchen to see if lunch is ready. I'll leave now."
After saying that, he walked out.
Jinhua took Yinhua and stood outside for a while before coming in.
"Mom, why were you making such a strange noise just now?" Jinhua sat down next to Mrs. Du.
"Why am I being weird? Am I not congratulating him?"
"Your tone is wrong."
"Nothing is wrong, I'm fine."
"I even heard Dad snorting at me!"
Ye Daquan: "I hum if I hum, you are such a jerk, I hum and you feel so distressed when I hum! You haven't even got married yet!"
Jinhua's face turned red with embarrassment and she gritted her teeth.
Old Lady Ye: "Stop arguing. It's embarrassing. If you have anything to say, go home and talk about it."
Jinhua pursed her lips, turned around and walked out of the hall.
Ye Caiping held the tea and sighed softly.
Soon, dinner was served.
After dinner, everyone went home.
After the Zhou family closed the door, Zhou Ziyang questioned Xie:
"Why did you call the Ye family over? I'm not ready yet!"
"Humph, as your mother, am I not allowed to interfere with your marriage? Since this is the one you've chosen, get married as soon as possible!"
"Mom...but when you say something like this today, aren't you just chasing people away?"
"I'm chasing her away? Which of my words are not true?" Xie said, and sneered: "If she is willing, she can marry in. If she is not willing, she should not marry."
"I'm not the kind of person who would force someone to marry me, right?"
"Is this a matter of truth or not?"
Xie felt upset when she heard what he said: "Okay, now you are older and you have taken over the family business. You are the head of the family. I am already sick and don't want to take care of you. Just do whatever you want!"
…
At this time, the atmosphere in the main hall of Ye Caiping's house was also very subtle.
The door was closed and only the old couple, Ye Daquan, Mrs. Du and Ye Caiping were in the room, discussing Jinhua's marriage.
Mrs. Du drank two bowls of tea before she suppressed her anger: "Why did I forget about this kind of thing before? Rich families like to keep concubines."
Ye Daquan: "I said, that young master doesn't look like a good person! Look!"
"That's enough!" Old Lady Ye glared at him. "When did you say that? You're such an hindsighter!"
Ye Daquan choked.
Old Mrs. Ye said angrily, "Old man, why are you so angry? They didn't cheat or rob us, and they said it clearly, what else do you want?"
Mrs. Du: "I just feel depressed! Such a good son-in-law just flew away like that."
Mrs. Du was extremely satisfied with Zhou Ziyang. He had a good family background, was good-looking, and was the young master of a wealthy family. She liked him in every way.
As a result, he never thought of taking a concubine.
Ye Caiping asked, "What about Jinhua?"
Mrs. Du sighed, "I'll have a good talk with her later. Don't go to the cloth shop. Since it can't work out, and they have feelings for each other, what's the point of seeing each other every day?"
At this moment, the door was pushed open with a bang, and Jinhua stood there holding back her tears.
Mrs. Du and Old Lady Ye pursed their lips. They also guessed that Jinhua might be outside, and they had intended to let her hear it, otherwise they would not know how to speak later.
Jinhua gritted her teeth and said, "Why can't we... be together? I heard from the Zhou family's maid that Aunt Xie agrees. As long as we agree, she will send a matchmaker to propose marriage."
Mrs. Du and Old Lady Ye's faces changed.
Ye Daquan angrily said, "Shut up, I'm your father, if I don't agree, then I don't agree! How can you do whatever you want? Aren't you ashamed?"
"Why should I be ashamed? Didn't my elder brother and elder sister-in-law get along just by themselves? Why can my elder brother do it but I can't? What happened to my elder sister-in-law back then? Xiuxiu's mother even came to our house to make trouble, asking for a gold hairpin and a secret recipe."
"It was a lot more embarrassing back then, but didn't you guys agree to it later? The Zhou family didn't make a scene, and they didn't ask us for anything. Why don't you agree?"
Old Mrs. Ye and her husband and Ye Daquan were so angry that they were shaking.
Mrs. Du said angrily, "Is that the same? You are going to get married, so you should be more cautious. You said that the Zhou family maid said that Madam Xie agreed, but did she tell you that Zhou Ziyang would take a concubine in the future?"
"We farmers don't do this. I don't want you to suffer like this!"
"I will eat it myself!"
"What did you say?" Mrs. Du looked at Ye Jinhua in shock.
Ye Caiping frowned and paused with her hand holding the teacup.
Ye Jinhua blushed and gritted her teeth: "Mom is generous, but I...but I have thought it through clearly."
"When I was in love with him... Shopkeeper Yao told me that the young master's family... is different from us. It is common for them to take concubines..."
When Jinhua heard Manager Yao say this, she was stunned and felt more disheartened than ever before. She absolutely did not want to do this.
But he is still good to himself.
As long as he was close to her, she couldn't control her heartbeat, and he was all in her heart and eyes!
For his sake, it seems that it’s okay to be more tolerant.
Mrs. Du covered her head: "You, you..."
Jinhua's eyes were red. "Mother...it's common for wealthy families to have three wives and four concubines. If you don't marry him, who should you marry?"
"Just find a guy in the nearby village? But how can I guarantee that the guy you find for me won't mess around?"
"Let's not talk about others, just Uncle Wu. He has a little money now. I even saw him visiting Zui Xiang Lou!"
Ye Caiping: “…”
Ye Daquan, Mrs. Du and Old Lady Ye: "..."
Old Man Ye: "Who are you talking about?"
Jinhua's face froze. "Uncle Wu! One time, Manager Yao and I went to the county to buy some goods, and we saw Uncle Wu visiting a brothel."
Ye Caiping didn't know what to say for a moment. They were clearly discussing Jinhua's wedding, but unexpectedly, they came up with the melon.
"Aunt!" Xiaoyan's voice came: "My aunt is here."
Ye Caiping's mouth twitched. Is it such a coincidence?
She got up from her seat woodenly and walked quickly out of the room.
Wuquan's wife came out of the hanging flower gate with a small pregnant belly: "Sister Caiping, last time you said you liked the salted eggs from my mother's house. This time my mother sent some again, I'll give you some."
Ye Caiping walked over and took it: "Oh, thank you..."
Wuquan's wife saw that she looked strange and said, "Are you busy? Then I'll go back first."
"Okay. Xiaoyan, help your aunt go home."
…
The saying "hindsight" has existed since ancient times. If you are interested, you can look it up.
