Chapter 280 Stranger
"Get back here!" Ye Erquan shouted coldly.
Wei felt that she was so wronged and stared at Ye Caiping:
"In the end, you just look down on us! How many marriages have you broken up? Last time you broke up Jinhua's, and now you're breaking up Peng'er and Jin'er's? Just because you were divorced, you can't stand seeing other people get married?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole room gasped.
Ye Caiping was stunned for a moment, then her heart sank. She said nothing, turned around, and left quickly.
"Mom..." Ye Huaner hurriedly chased after her.
“Cai Ping…” Old Lady Ye wanted to chase her, but after a moment’s hesitation, she turned around and rushed to Wei. With a slap, she slapped Wei in the face: “How could our family produce a vicious woman like you!”
Wei was hit and fell to the ground with a thud.
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a little scared, but...
Without waiting for her to explain, Jinhua shouted angrily: "Second Aunt, do you know what you are talking about? What do you mean by aunt ruining my marriage? If it weren't for aunt, I would have been tricked by that scumbag named Zhou to become his concubine."
Mrs. Du was angry: "For your little selfishness, you turned black into white."
Wei shook his head: "No...I don't mean that...I just..."
"Who are you?" Ye Erquan roared, "I'm telling you clearly, forget about this marriage. As your father, I won't agree to it! It's a disgrace!"
Wei couldn't stand the scolding any more: "What am I doing this for? It's just for the future of my two children."
After saying that, he rushed out.
Ye Peng stood there blankly, his face full of shock and embarrassment.
Old Lady Ye noticed him and pursed her lips and said, "I know this was your mother's idea. Peng'er, don't be embarrassed. You and Jin'er will still be brother and sister in the future."
Hearing the last two words, Ye Peng was heartbroken, his eyes were red: "I, I'll go home first."
"Okay, go ahead."
Ye Peng turned around and left in embarrassment.
Ye Erquan had a bitter look on his face, and Yinhua was so embarrassed that she wanted to die.
Ye Erquan said guiltily: "Dad and Mom, I didn't know she had such thoughts. I will go back and scold her. Don't worry, I don't agree with this marriage either!"
"Then... Yinhua and I will go back first. We will come back to apologize to my little sister tomorrow."
Even if he didn't know about this, they were his wife and son after all. After what had happened, if he and Yinhua stayed any longer, it would only add to the awkwardness.
After saying this, without waiting for Old Lady Ye and others to speak, Ye Erquan took Yinhua away.
…
In the room——
Ye Caiping sat on the bed in a daze. She wiped her eyes and found that she was actually crying.
She had long regarded them as family members and was sincere to each of them.
Wei's words hurt her.
Ye Huan'er's eyes were red with grievance, and she held Ye Caiping's hand tightly: "Mom... don't be sad... didn't we agree when we came back? If we get along well with these people, we will continue to be relatives. If we don't get along well, we will be strangers."
Ye Caiping nodded: "Yes."
As he said this, he hugged Ye Huaner tightly.
From now on, Wei is no longer her relative!
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
Ye Caiping wiped her eyes, turned around and opened the door.
I saw Old Lady Ye and Ye Jin'er standing outside the door.
Old Lady Ye was slightly startled when she saw the corners of Ye Caiping's eyes were red. She felt guilty and worried: "Caiping..."
Ye Caiping waved her hand and said, "No need to say anything, leave this to my second brother!"
Old Mrs. Ye sighed and nodded.
Ye Caiping looked at Ye Jiner and said, "Today is your birthday, let's put this aside for now. But you have to find a time to talk to Ye Peng clearly."
Ye Jiner nodded: "I'll look for him tomorrow."
Ye Huan'er said: "We have to follow them when the time comes, and nothing can happen."
Ye Caiping praised: "Huan'er is still very thoughtful."
She had thought of this a long time ago. Matters between men and women must be discussed with him in private by Jin'er, otherwise he would think that Jin'er did not mean it.
But Ye Peng had his eyes on Jin'er and was afraid something might happen, so they had to watch from a distance.
"Let's go back and eat."
Back in the dining room, Mrs. Du hurried forward, took Ye Caiping's hand and said, "Caiping, we are very grateful to you for Jinhua's matter. We don't have that kind of thought."
"I understand." Ye Caiping smiled.
Ye Daquan was so angry that he cursed: "I don't know what the second brother's family was thinking. They actually came up with such an idea. Our family is not so poor that we have no food to eat."
Mrs. Du was also very angry and felt that Mrs. Wei had evil intentions.
And he just brought up the matter of Jinhua, how poisonous!
Ye Caiping said calmly: "We believe that the second brother will handle the matter well."
Old Mrs. Ye and Old Man Ye sighed softly.
Although Wei was in trouble, Ye Peng was her grandson, and the second child was also caught in the middle and had a difficult time.
Old Mrs. Ye still hopes to turn the Wei family around.
"Xiaoyan, is the food ready?" Ye Caiping said.
Xiaoyan, who was standing in the corner, came out and said, "It's ready. I'll ask Mother Yang to serve the food."
After the food came, everyone toasted happily.
Although everyone pretended nothing happened, everyone felt like there was a thorn in their heart.
…
When Wei returned home, he immediately pulled Ye Peng to question him:
"Didn't you say Jin'er likes you? She never said a word for you."
Ye Peng finally came back to his senses from his trance and said firmly:
"Jin'er and I are truly in love, and I know that Jin'er has me in her heart."
But when he thought of Ye Jiner's frown just now, he felt a little nervous.
She must be shy or she doesn't have the courage to admit it.
They were obviously so close, and he could feel her love for him. That kind of tacit understanding.
Wei gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, your words are enough. You two should be a couple!"
She's risking her life on this matter!
As he was speaking, Ye Erquan and Yinhua came walking quickly towards him.
Wei's face changed, and she saw Ye Erquan overturn the dining table in front of her and throw it to the ground with a loud crash.
"Wei Si Ya, please explain to me clearly, what is going on?"
Wei knew that he would be angry when he came back, so she pursed her lips and said, "Didn't I just say that I just want to make the relationship even better."
"Bah! If you like to marry your relatives so much, why don't you let Peng'er marry your niece?"
"To put it mildly, this is just a toad wanting to eat swan flesh. To put it seriously, it's simply wanting to eat up the entire family!"
Before giving the gifts, they joked about Caiping getting married, and Wei reacted strongly at that time.
Thinking of this, Ye Erquan shuddered.
He couldn't imagine that his wife would have such thoughts.
Wei gritted her teeth and said, "What do you mean by 'eating up the whole family'? What? Jin'er won't marry in the future? She won't get married? It doesn't matter who you marry, but why is marrying my Peng'er considered 'eating up the whole family'?"
"You——" Ye Erquan was stunned: "I won't waste my words with you! Anyway, just give up on this idea. If you have this idea again, I will divorce you!"
When he heard the word "rest", Wei's face changed.
"And Peng'er..." Ye Erquan looked at Ye Peng with a frown.
This is his son, so naturally he loves him.
I just didn't expect him to have such thoughts. I looked at him and sighed softly:
"You and Jin'er are just brother and sister, and will always be so. Don't think too much about other things. Let's just let this matter pass."
Ye Peng felt bitter: "Dad, can't you help me? I really like Jin'er."
Ye Erquan glared at her: "Just because you like someone, does that mean he has to marry you? A beggar on the street likes the princess, so what? Does the princess have to marry a beggar?"
Ye Peng choked, but shook his head: "Dad...why don't you understand?"
"I know nothing! I only know that since ancient times, marriage has been decided by parents and matchmakers. Now your sister-in-law and I both disagree, so it won't work. If you keep whining, I'll knock all your teeth out!"
Ye Peng's eyes were red and he clenched his fists tightly.
Ye Erquan said ruthlessly: "Whoever bothers Jin'er again in the future will be either killed or have his legs broken! I, Ye Erquan, will always keep my word!"
After saying that, he left the main room angrily and returned to his room.
Yinhua stood aside, looked at Wei and Ye Peng with resentment, then turned around and went back to her room.
Ye Peng stood there in a daze.
Wei gritted his teeth. Ye Erquan had never said such harsh words to them...
She was really scared.
…
At night, Wei didn't dare to sleep with Ye Erquan and slept in the east wing.
The next day.
Wei carefully prepared breakfast, making a bowl of noodle soup for each person.
After dinner, Ye Erquan was about to go out to work. Before leaving, he gave Wei a stern warning:
"This is the end of the matter. If you want to do something crooked, I will definitely divorce you."
Wei's face turned green.
She looked at Ye Erquan's back, clenched her hands tightly, and was full of unwillingness.
Why?
It’s obvious that my son and Jin’er truly love each other and should be together! Why would she ruin her son's marriage?
It is impossible to do so now. She can only put her hope on the relationship between Peng'er and Jin'er.
Not long after Ye Erquan left, Yinhua walked into the main room and said cautiously:
"Mom, it's time to go to uncle's house to make spicy soup."
Wei sat back in her chair, looking sullen, "Don't you have the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday? You don't have to go to the Shen family for school for seven or eight days? Just say I'm not feeling well and let your aunt and Jinhua do it! After I recover in a few days, she will do it for a few days, and we will do it for a few days."
Yinhua nodded and said timidly: "What about my brother? He still has to deliver the goods..."
"Just say your brother asked for leave and let your uncle take care of him for a few days."
Yinhua knew this would happen, so she sighed softly and turned to walk out.
I arrived at Uncle Ye’s house in the dim light.
Yinhua took a deep breath and knocked on the door awkwardly.
It was Jinhua who opened the door: "Are you here?"
"Well..." Yinhua whispered, "My mother said she is not feeling well, so let aunt and sister do it first. Then it will be our turn. My brother has also asked for leave..."
"Okay, then you let Second Aunt have a good rest." Jinhua looked at Yinhua's timid appearance and took her hand, "Don't think too much. This matter... your mother can't figure it out, it's none of your business."
"My parents, grandparents, and my aunt Jin'er and Huan'er all know about it."
Yinhua nodded with red eyes.
"One more thing." Jinhua said in a low voice, "Tell Third Brother that Jin'er asked him to meet under the jujube tree halfway up the mountain after 12:00 p.m. Some things must be made clear."
This is what Ye Caiping told her.
Ye Caiping had guessed long ago that Wei would not come to make the spicy soup, and would definitely send Yinhua to tell her.
So Jinhua brought a message.
Yinhua was startled, then nodded: "I understand."
"Okay, go back now."
After returning home, Yinhua went straight to find Ye Peng.
But she knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered or opened the door.
Fortunately, Ye Peng had the habit of not locking the door before sleeping, so with a bang, Yinhua pushed the door open and walked in.
When I entered, I saw Ye Peng curled up on the bed with his face facing inward, as if he was dead.
Yinhua knew he was awake and frowned, "Who are you showing this dying look to? This marriage is impossible in the first place. Besides, Dad doesn't agree."
Ye Peng suddenly turned over and stood up, with dark circles under his eyes, obviously he didn't sleep well all night:
"Why is it impossible? Didn't my eldest brother and my eldest sister-in-law disagree at the beginning? My eldest sister-in-law was even engaged at the time, and didn't they get married in the end?"
Yinhua pursed her lips and said, "That's because they truly love each other. Although I don't understand what love is, Jin'er's attitude towards you... is really not like that. The way she looks at you is not like the way the eldest sister-in-law looks at the eldest brother, and even less like the way the eldest sister looked at Zhou Ziyang."
"What's the difference? That's because you don't know how to see!"
Yinhua's face froze. "Alright. I can't read, so you guys chat. Jin'er wants to meet you under the jujube tree halfway up the mountain after 12:00."
Ye Peng was shocked: "Really?"
Yinhua no longer wanted to pay attention to him and turned away.
Ye Peng jumped for joy.
Jin'er asked him to meet alone to prove that his feeling was correct! They love each other.
Ye Peng jumped off the bed excitedly and packed up happily.
She even picked out a lake blue silk dress from the closet and dressed herself neatly.
Before the time came, he ran to the jujube tree halfway up the mountain and waited.
…
Ye Jiner arrived halfway up the mountain on time.
From a distance, she saw Ye Peng dozing off under a tree. She turned around and saw Ye Caiping and Huan'er hiding behind a bush of thorns not far away. Besides them, Shanzi had also come.
Ye Jin'er then walked forward.
I came under the tree and gently woke him up: "Third cousin?"
"Uh..." Ye Peng woke up, saw Ye Jin'er, wiped the saliva from the corner of his lips, and jumped up in surprise: "Jin'er, you are here."
Seeing his surprised look, Ye Jin'er looked a little embarrassed: "Yeah."
Ye Peng stared at her pretty little face, but he became more and more happy, smiling so hard that his teeth were showing: "You asked me to come here..."
"Oh, I'm here to make it clear to you." Ye Jin'er said, took a deep breath, and looked at him seriously: "Third cousin, you and I are just brother and sister, don't let your imagination run wild."
Ye Peng's smiling face froze: "What did you say..."
Ye Jin'er frowned and repeated, "You and I are cousins, and we can only be cousins. There is no other relationship possible."
"Why do you say that?" Ye Peng didn't want to believe it. "Did my aunt disagree with us and force you to say that? I'll go find my aunt right now. Why can my elder brother and sister-in-law do it, but we can't?"
Ye Jin'er choked, "Don't be impulsive. It has nothing to do with my mother. This is my own idea. I don't like you. The relationship between us is just brother and sister."
"Impossible! I can clearly feel that you like me! I like you too. We have always liked each other, and everything was going well. Why did it suddenly change?" Ye Peng felt very upset.
