Han Chunling had originally made up her mind that she would endure it for the sake of her son and just eat a few bites to fool him. No matter how bad the food tasted, it would not kill him.
Who knew that after taking one bite, I couldn’t put my chopsticks down anymore.
Later on, Han Chunling felt a little embarrassed about eating so much.
But although I wanted to put down my chopsticks, my hands seemed to be out of control.
Old Madam Ye seemed to see Han Chunling's embarrassment and said with a smile, "Madam Clan Leader, my eldest daughter-in-law's cooking skills are pretty good, right? Madam Qin and Young Master Qin also praised the food highly after eating it!"
"It's a pity that there's not much food at home, otherwise it would be more plentiful. I'm really neglecting you!"
When Han Chunling heard her talking about the Qin family, she immediately pricked up her ears.
"Why, Madam Qin and Young Master Qin have eaten your family's food?"
"It's a coincidence that we met on the road. Madam Qin and Young Master Qin were kind-hearted and helped my family.
"We are from the countryside and don't have much to offer in return, but luckily the eldest son's wife has some skills.
"Luckily, Madam Qin and Young Master Qin both love to eat, so they simply took us along with them through customs, and we didn't separate until just before entering Beijing!"
Han Chunling was shocked when she heard this. She didn't expect that she could get such important news just by coming here for a meal.
Even Ye Dongming didn't know this.
The relationship between the Ye family and the Qin family seemed to be even closer than he thought.
After having this idea, Han Chunling's attitude finally became warmer.
Part of her original friendliness was pretended, but now she was already thinking about how to show her goodwill to Old Lady Ye.
The woman didn't drink, so she was full quickly, but the people in the east room were drinking happily.
After Mrs. Ye had cleared away the dishes, she stuffed a piece of fabric that she had prepared long ago into Han Chunling's hand.
"The burial of my old man has really worried the clan leader."
Han Chunling was thinking about how to get closer to Old Lady Ye, so she was not willing to accept her gift.
But Old Lady Ye said, "My family doesn't have anything worth showing off. I bought this piece of fabric when I was in Tianjin. Please don't despise it."
After she said that, Han Chunling's words of refusal were suddenly stuck in her throat.
Old Mrs. Ye has said so much. If she doesn't accept it, wouldn't it be equivalent to saying that she despises the Ye family?
Without waiting for Han Chunling to speak, Mrs. Ye continued, "I think this material is very suitable for you. It can be used to make a new dress for the New Year.
"If Madam doesn't have time to do it, my second daughter-in-law is quite good at sewing. Why don't you ask her to measure your size and send it to you when she's done?"
These words left Han Chunling no room to refuse, as if she could only choose between taking it home and making it herself or leaving it for Ye Ersao to make.
Han Chunling didn't react for a moment, and said politely: "Oh, I'm embarrassed to charge you a piece of cloth. I can do it myself. Why should I trouble your daughter-in-law? I can do it myself..."
She was stunned before she finished speaking. Wasn't she thinking about how to refuse tactfully just now? How come he accepted it all of a sudden?
Old Madam Ye didn't give her a chance to regret and said with a smile, "Once their men start drinking, there's no time for them.
"You left home early this morning and came all the way here, you must be tired by now.
"Let the eldest daughter-in-law take you to the wing room to rest for a while!"
Han Chunling was indeed a little restless, so she nodded and stood up, and the clothes that had been on her legs fell to the ground.
She immediately felt embarrassed, because she was determined not to want this piece of fabric.
Who knew that I hadn’t returned the things and now I have to rest in someone else’s house.
Old Mrs. Ye bent down and picked up the cloth without caring at all and stuffed it into Han Chunling's arms.
When Han Chunling came to her senses, everyone had already been taken to the east wing by Mrs. Ye.
Mrs. Ye is usually a clean person. Although the furniture in the house is neither new nor old, she keeps them all very tidy and clean.
"This is my house, don't mind me, you can rest here for a while, take a nap or something.
"I'll close the door for you and make sure no one comes to disturb you."
"I understand." Han Chunling responded with a conflicted look on her face, still holding the piece of fabric in her hand.
Only after Mrs. Ye closed the door and left did she have time to take a closer look at the fabric in her hand.
After reading it, Han Chunling couldn't help but sigh deeply.
This material, both in texture and pattern, is obviously not cheap.
Now, not only did I fail to get closer to the other person, but I ended up receiving a gift for no apparent reason.
After returning home, Ye Dongming will definitely scold me.
