Old Mrs. Ye panicked instantly. She looked up at Mrs. Ye and saw that she looked haggard. Could it be that it was not just because of Qingtian’s illness?
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other. Although they didn't say it explicitly, they both knew what was going on.
Only then did Old Lady Ye stop saying what she had just said.
Since Qingtian is getting better, it means that there shouldn't be any major problems with Boss Ye.
Old Mrs. Ye held Qingtian in her arms, looking at him again and again with heartache, and finally said something without any context, "When the eldest son comes back, I'll talk to him and ask him to go out less in the future.
"If something like this happens again, he won't be able to bear it, but the child won't be able to bear it!"
Ye Lao Si asked in confusion, "Mom, what are you talking about? Why are you talking about my eldest brother again?"
"Your eldest brother has been gone for several months, how can Qingtian miss him?
"He wasn't even there when his child was sick. How can he be a father?
"The capital is so big, I don't believe he can't find a job. Why does he have to travel so far?"
Ye Lao Si was scolded by his mother. He raised his hand and touched his nose awkwardly and said, "Mom, if you are angry with my brother, don't take it out on me!"
Old Madam Ye rolled her eyes angrily and said, "You brothers, none of you ever give me peace of mind.
"Thank goodness I married these wives, otherwise how could we have such a good life now?
"Especially you, you're even more worry-free than your three brothers!"
Ye Laosi felt that he was extremely innocent and had suffered innocently.
But when he heard Old Lady Ye bring up even this, he didn't dare say anything more. Otherwise, with the old lady's temper, she would probably bring up all the trivial matters and scold him.
Old Mrs. Ye never brings up old grudges with her daughters-in-law, but she is not so kind to her own sons.
Seeing that Ye Lao Si was silent, Old Lady Ye also remembered that she had come to the city to help her son prepare for the wedding, and it was inappropriate to bring up the past, so she swallowed back all her complaints.
Old Mrs. Ye stayed with Qingtian for a while. Seeing that Qingtian was not in good spirits, she quickly coaxed the child to sleep.
Mrs. Ye called Birui in and asked her to stay by the bed, while she took Old Madam Ye and Old Fourth Ye to the west room.
"Mom, Lao Si, please sit wherever you want. I've been staying here for the past few days."
Mrs. Ye used to live somewhere else.
But the fever lasted for several days and he would cry for his mother at night.
Although Princess Rui was sad, she still asked someone to move Mrs. Ye's things over so that she could stay here and watch over Qingtian.
At this time, the child fell asleep, so Mrs. Ye called the two of them over to talk.
"This time, in order to propose marriage, the fourth son came back to the village to pick me up." Old Madam Ye said, rolling her eyes at the fourth son. "Who would have thought that he was in the capital, but he didn't even know about something as serious as Qingtian's illness? I don't know what he's thinking about every day."
Ye Laosi really felt extremely wronged.
"Mom, I'm working for the Imperial Guards, and Qingtian is in the palace. I can't care about her even if I want to!"
Mrs. Ye also spoke up for him, saying, "Mother, you really can't blame the Fourth Brother for this. The palace has its own rules, and the fact that Qingtian was sick was never told to anyone.
“I couldn’t go anywhere except the restaurant, so I told Sister Hongyun.
“Let’s not even talk about the fourth son. I didn’t even mention the third son’s wife.
"We have people here to take care of you. We've hired the best doctors and everything. Telling your family will only make you worry. There's really no need."
Old Mrs. Ye also knew that what Mrs. Ye said made sense. Qingtian was now a princess, and even if they were worried, they could not come to visit her anytime and anywhere.
But whenever I think about these things, I still feel a little uncomfortable.
She was once my precious daughter, but suddenly she became so far away from my family that I couldn’t even reach her.
Mrs. Ye was keenly aware of the change in Old Lady Ye's mood, and quickly changed the subject to ask about Ye Laosi's proposal for marriage.
"What do you need to prepare? If there's anything you need help with, please let us know, Old Four.
"We are all family, so we must help wherever we can.
"If you don't have enough money, don't be embarrassed to ask. You are the only marriage left in the family. Moreover, the Zhou family is so well-off. You can't neglect Miss Zhou just for the sake of your own face."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I have made great contributions this time. Not only have I been promoted and my salary increased, I have also received a reward.
"Not to mention getting engaged, it's enough to even cover the cost of the wedding."
Speaking of this, Ye Laosi really thanked Ye Qingshan from the bottom of his heart.
If Ye Qingshan had not insisted on taking him with him in everything he did, giving him the opportunity to make a contribution, he would have had to trouble his brothers and sisters-in-law again when proposing marriage and getting married.
"It's easier to do things if you don't lack money." Old Mrs. Ye wasn't the kind of person who was stingy. "I'll take care of the fourth son, so don't worry about it."
The three of them were talking when Lan Yi suddenly came in and said, "Madam You, the Third Young Master and the Third Madam of the Ye Family are here."
"Why did the third brother suddenly come to the capital?"
The three people in the room were very surprised. Shouldn't Ye Lao San be working in the carpentry workshop in the county town at this time?
Mrs. Ye hurriedly said, "Please trouble Miss Lan Yi to bring them in."
Ye Laosan went into the city today and went straight to the dumpling restaurant to find his wife. Then the two of them went to the restaurant to find Ye Dasao. Only then did he learn from Lu Hongyun that Qingtian was sick and that Old Lady Ye had also come. Only then did he muster up the courage to come to Prince Rui's Mansion.
When the two were brought in, they were so nervous that they could hardly walk.
