"I don't know where he got the strength from, but he nearly exhausted the man to death. It took several people to finally pry his hands free...
“My family paid the other party a sum of money, and the restaurant no longer wanted him.
"Business outside the Great Wall was already difficult, and after he lost this job, no other restaurant was willing to hire him.
"In order to get him to let go, everyone tried to bend his fingers, and ended up fracturing the thumb and middle finger on his right hand."
"Ah——" Mr. Cen couldn't help but exclaimed.
As a chef, if there is a problem with two fingers on the right hand, it can be fatal.
“After that, my father-in-law never cooked with a kitchen knife again.
"Every day he either goes crazy at home or forces my wife to learn his craft.
"My family saved money to take him to see doctors all over the place, but his condition was always up and down.
"Alas, at first none of us understood what was going on with him, but after listening to the stories you told me last night, I finally understood."
Mr. Cen had always thought that although You Bin was exiled outside the Great Wall, he had the skills he taught him, so he would not be short of food no matter where he went.
Even after they lost contact, he secretly resented You Bin in his heart, thinking that he was a little ungrateful.
He never expected that You Bin's later life would be like this, and he couldn't help feeling even more sad.
No wonder the people I sent couldn’t find him, and he never contacted me. It turned out that he had a mental problem.
"Given Qingtian's temper, she would never tell you these things, but I can't bear to see her suffer...
“My family has a house and land, and I also go hunting in the mountains.
"I was able to support my family outside the Great Wall, so it doesn't make sense that I can't support my family after entering the Great Wall.
"If she wants to go out and cook to earn money, I support her. If she still wants to stay at home and do housework, I can also support her and her daughter."
After Boss Ye finished speaking, he saw that Boss Cen had fallen into deep thought.
She let him think for a while before continuing, "In fact, she likes cooking very much, especially when she sees people eating happily, she is happier than others.
"But after so many years outside the customs, she never made any money from this.
"It's not because she doesn't want to do it, but because she always feels that her skills are not good enough."
Upon hearing this, Elder Cen immediately retorted, "Who said that her craftsmanship is not good?"
"Because her father always said that she was not doing well and could not meet the requirements of the imperial kitchen.
"Some people even nicknamed him Yuchu You because of this... He would get sick every time he heard it.
"Everyone thought he was talking nonsense at first, but they never expected..."
Who would have thought that a crazy middle-aged man would actually be the imperial chef in the imperial kitchen.
"I'm getting off topic. Anyway, because of my father-in-law's behavior, my wife has always had a very low self-esteem.
'After I got married, for a long time I said that my cooking was not tasty and I was afraid to cook.
“Even though she is now able to prepare banquets of the caliber of the All-Chrysanthemum Banquet, she is still worried that she is not up to the task.
"She is willing to fight for her life now, all for the sake of her children.
“But I don’t want to push her, and I don’t want you to be too pushy and harsh with her.
"I just hope she's fine and doesn't become like my father-in-law."
After going around in circles, Boss Ye finally stated his purpose.
He knows his wife very well.
Not to mention that Mr. Cen had already bought toys to visit Qingtian and took the initiative to show his goodwill.
Even if he has always been strong, Mrs. Ye would recognize him as her grandfather because he adopted You Bin and taught him a craft.
Although Boss Ye and Boss Cen had only met twice, he was already very keenly aware of his inherent strength and arrogance.
If Mrs. Ye acknowledged this relative, he would definitely be unable to control himself and interfere in the affairs of Mrs. Ye or even the old Ye family.
And this is exactly what Boss Ye doesn't want to see.
And just as he expected, after hearing about You Bin's situation, Mr. Cen indeed felt a sense of sympathy.
"Don't worry, I understand what you mean." Elder Cen sighed and said, "Actually, you don't need to worry so much. I can't possibly send your wife to the palace to be a royal chef, right?"
Boss Ye's eyes twitched when he heard this, and he thought to himself, who knows what you can do!
After the two of them finished chatting, Mrs. Ye also came back from Mr. Jiang's place.
When she walked in and saw Elder Cen, she paused and looked at Boss Ye suspiciously and asked, "Did I interrupt your conversation?"
Boss Ye quickly stood up and said, “No, Boss Cen just came to see Qingtian.
"Look, he even bought a toy for Sunny!"
Seeing the toys on the kang, Mrs. Ye's expression eased a little, but she still said, "I'm sorry to have cost you so much. How much are these toys? I..."
Elder Cen's face flushed red upon hearing this. He tried hard to suppress his anger and said, "Even if you don't recognize me, can't I buy something for the child? What do you mean by this?"
"No reward without merit." Mrs. Ye lowered her eyes and said.
She tossed and turned last night and couldn't sleep, thinking about many things that happened at her parents' home before marriage.
Many women are afraid of their families, worried that it will be difficult to get along with their parents-in-law, worried that their husbands will treat them badly, etc.
At first, she was eager to get married and wished she could just find someone to marry.
The only requirement is that it should not be in the village, the farther the better.
She wanted to be as far away from her father as possible.
Only by marrying into her husband's family can she completely escape from her father's control.
Fortunately, her mother was reliable and arranged such a marriage for her.
I wouldn't say I haven't suffered any grievances over the years, but I've lived in perfect harmony.
