Chapter 320 Why Don’t You Agree
Ye Daquan and his family are at Ye Caiping's place, discussing the opening of the embroidery shop tomorrow.
As they were talking excitedly, Mrs. Zhao came with a basin of clothes in her hand and said in a hurry, "Pick apples, pick apples—"
Ye Caiping put down the teacup: "What's wrong?"
"Ouch!" Mrs. Zhao took a breath and said, "Just now I was washing clothes by the river and met Erquan's wife. She said Ye Peng is engaged."
Old Lady Ye's eyes widened: "What? When did this happen? How come I, as a nurse, don't know about it?"
Mrs. Zhao said, "Anyway, Erquan's wife said that she has decided to marry her niece from her mother's family. What's her niece's name? Oh, I think her name is Wei Xiaojuan, right?"
"Her niece?"
Old Mrs. Ye and Old Man Ye almost passed away.
Ye Daquan said anxiously: "Aren't these cousins? They will give birth to a fool, right?"
As he said this, he glanced at Ye Caiping.
Ye Caiping said: "Not necessarily, but the probability is greater than that of ordinary people."
"We haven't even heard of this, so there's no way the Second Brother would agree to it." Old Man Ye hesitated for a moment, "Let's go over and take a look first."
Ye Caiping said: "Dad, Mom, Big Brother, Big Sister-in-law, you guys go!"
She said she would never bother with Wei again.
As for Ye Peng, she had given up long ago.
Old Mrs. Ye and her husband nodded, and then hurried out with Ye Daquan, Mrs. Du and Jinhua.
Ye Jin'er sat aside calmly and composedly. She had let go of the matter of Ye Peng long ago.
Now when I suddenly hear about this, I just think that Wei's behavior is ridiculous.
…
Old Mrs. Ye and Ye Daquan and others ran to Ye Erquan's house, panting.
Halfway through the journey, we met Ye Erquan and Yinhua who were coming down from the mountain.
Ye Erquan carried two bundles of firewood and Yinhua carried pig feed.
Ye Erquan asked, "Dad and Mom, what's wrong with you? Why are you running so fast?"
Old Lady Ye stared, "What else? Of course it's because of that damned woman of yours. She said Peng'er is engaged to her niece Wei Xiaojuan!"
"What?" Ye Erquan was furious and roared, "This damn bitch has been quiet for just a few days, and now she's making trouble again!"
"Okay, control your temper. What's the point of yelling when something happens!" Old Man Ye rolled his eyes at him, "If you have something to say, just talk about it and go home and find out clearly."
Ye Erquan responded and walked quickly towards home.
Yinhua's face turned pale, and she felt uncomfortable and powerless in her heart.
In the courtyard.
Wei was absentmindedly hanging clothes in the yard.
She had thought about Ye Peng marrying Wei Xiaojuan a long time ago.
Didn’t they say that she was after Ye Caiping’s family’s money?
She just married a poor man! Proves that she didn’t ask for Ye Caiping’s family’s money when she proposed to him!
What she was after in the first place was a closer relationship, so that she could know each other well!
Don’t they say that cousins will give birth to fools?
She wanted to prove to everyone that those were all Ye Caiping's excuses for being snobbish!
But even so, she still hadn't made up her mind to marry Wei Xiaojuan as her daughter-in-law.
Because she looks down on it! She feels that Wei Xiaojuan is not worthy of her son.
But today, the words have been spoken! She has made up her mind too!
With her family's current monthly income of only a dozen taels, it is impossible for her to marry a rich lady who can compare to Ye Jiner.
In that case, why not marry her niece from her mother's side? At least it can prove that she has never coveted her sister-in-law's money! This is the only thing that can slap my sister-in-law in the face!
"Wei Si Ya!" At this time, Ye Erquan walked in angrily.
Wei's face changed. She had made up her mind about this matter, but how could she have forgotten that there was still Ye Erquan to deal with?
Old Mrs. Ye, Ye Daquan and others followed behind and walked in.
Old Lady Ye frowned and said, "Why did I hear people say that Peng'er and Wei Xiaojuan are engaged? You can't make such a joke."
Wei's face turned pale: "I, I'm not kidding. Mother also knows that Peng'er is already seventeen years old, and it's time for him to get engaged."
Ye Peng was born in September and just celebrated his birth this month. But because of the forced marriage incident, there was no celebration at home.
Ye Erquan said angrily, "You can't be engaged to your niece from your mother's side. Do you have my consent for your nonsense?"
Wei gritted her teeth and said, "Why can't you marry my niece? My Xiaojuan is also pretty and has a straight face. She's also hardworking. What's wrong with her? What's wrong? Do you think my family is poor?"
When Old Lady Ye heard this, she was so angry that she fell backwards.
I remember the last time Wei wanted to marry Jin'er, she also said that she didn't want to marry him because she thought his family was poor!
Old Mrs. Ye was furious and shouted, "Yes, I just don't like your family. I just look down on them. What's wrong? Ah?"
Wei gritted her teeth and said, "Mom... Mom and Dad don't live with us now. We have separated a long time ago. Marriage is a matter of parents' will. My son's marriage is my own decision."
Ye Erquan roared: "You also know that this is the parents' order! Have you got my consent? My parents can't control it, but as a father, I can control it!"
"I don't care if you're being unreasonable or anything like that, I don't agree with it! I'm the head of the family, and I'm the one who makes the decision. If you continue to make trouble, I'll divorce you."
Wei's face changed: "You——"
"Shut up! If you dare to bang your head against the wall again and try to kill yourself, I won't let you go this time!"
Wei's eyes were red and she sobbed. She wanted to hit him, but after doing it once, she no longer had the courage.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, with a "bang", Ye Peng rushed out of the room, stood in front of Wei, and shouted angrily:
"I agree to this marriage!"
Seeing Ye Peng, Old Man Ye and Old Lady Ye were stunned.
Because Ye Peng had lost a lot of weight, he looked haggard.
But what shocked everyone the most was not his haggard appearance, but what he said!
What did he just say? He actually agreed?
Yinhua pursed her lips and said, "Brother...what nonsense are you talking about."
"I'm not talking nonsense!" Ye Peng gritted his teeth, "I want to marry Xiaojuan!"
Ye Erquan stared at him blankly, thinking that his son had lost his mind: "What's wrong with you? Why marry Wei Xiaojuan!"
Ye Peng said: "Why can't I marry Xiao Juan? Before, I said I wanted to marry Ye Jin'er, but you wouldn't let me. Because my aunt didn't agree!"
"Now I want to marry Xiaojuan. If my uncle's family agrees, will you not allow it?"
Wei immediately said, "My brother and sister-in-law will definitely agree."
Ye Erquan glared at her: "Shut up!"
Ye Peng continued: "Brother and sister-in-law, you all agreed at the beginning, why can't you agree with Xiaojuan and me?"
Old Man Ye asked, "Then why do you want to marry Wei Xiaojuan?"
Ye Peng frowned and said nothing.
But even if he didn't say it, Old Man Ye and others knew the reason.
Old Man Ye sighed softly and looked at Wei: "Just to vent your anger, is it that serious? Your family is well-off, you can obviously marry someone better."
Wei refused to admit it: "Why are you angry... I originally wanted to make the relationship closer! Either Ye Jin'er or my niece! Anyway, I like to know the background of the person. Besides, there is no money at home, only ten or eight taels a month."
Ye Erquan yelled, "Where's the money I gave you before? You've saved up about four or five hundred taels, right?!"
