Chapter 24
After Ye Fuyun finished the appraisal, he watched Ye Fuyue and Shen Yao getting farther and farther away, and washed the clothes very hard.
Ye family.
Ye's father and mother were busy in the house, planning to give Shen Yao a grand reception.
Suddenly, they heard noises coming from the family compound.
"Fuyue and your man are back home!"
"Yes, auntie."
Hearing Ye Fuyue's voice, Ye's father and mother hurried out of the house.
Shen Yao was carrying Ye Fuyue and stopped his bicycle just in front of his house.
"Dad, Mom." Shen Yao called politely.
Ye Fuyue got out of the car and called out, "Dad, Mom."
Mother Ye noticed the dress Ye Fuyue was wearing at first sight. Her eyes sparkled as she said, "This is a new dress, right?"
"Yeah." Ye Fuyue said, "You have never bought me new clothes. Chen Yao bought me a few pieces."
Mother Ye didn’t care about the first half of Ye Fuyue’s words at all, and smiled: “Not bad, not bad, Chen Yao is really good to you.”
Ye Fuyue handed over the bag of brown sugar in her hand: "This is for you."
Ye's father and mother's expressions froze.
"Is this what you brought back?" Ye's father asked with a unhappy expression.
"Yes!" Ye Fuyue answered cheerfully, "You didn't give me any dowry, so I'm lucky to bring back a bag of brown sugar."
A gloomy look flashed across Ye's father's face, and he was about to lose his temper when Ye's mother nudged him with her arm and winked at him several times.
Mother Ye took the brown sugar with a smile: "Brown sugar is good! It's great to be able to bring back brown sugar."
"You must be tired. Come on in and have a cup of brown sugar water." Mother Ye was very hospitable.
Father Ye relaxed his expression and tried to smile, saying, "Your mother has been busy since early morning and has cooked a lot of dishes. You must stay here for dinner."
Shen Yao didn't move and looked at Ye Fuyue.
Ye Fuyue thought her parents would quarrel with her like they did every time before. Why were they so patient today?
It seems that her parents probably have other plans!
Ye Fuyue raised her eyebrows and said, "Okay, then we'll stay here for dinner."
Shen Yao then nodded: "Yeah."
After entering the house, Ye's father poured two cups of brown sugar water for them both, while Ye's mother continued to work in the kitchen.
Father Ye chatted with Shen Yao from time to time, and his attitude was so gentle!
After Ye's mother had a busy day, all the dishes were served. There were vegetarian dishes like tofu with scallions and cabbage fried with lard, as well as meat dishes like braised pork in red sauce and scrambled eggs with scallions.
Ye Fuyue looked at the dishes on the table and exclaimed, "You guys are so generous today! We've never had such a sumptuous meal at home during Chinese New Year."
"It's because you and Shen Yao are back that your mother cooked so many dishes." Father Ye took the opportunity to say.
Ye Fuyue didn't bother to be polite with them and gestured for Shen Yao to pick up his chopsticks and eat with her.
But in the past, all the meals at home were cooked by the original owner or Ye Fuyun. Ye's mother hadn't cooked for a long time, so her cooking skills were really not good. There was not a single dish that suited Ye Fuyue's taste.
Ye Fuyue tasted all the dishes and couldn't eat anymore.
"Tell me, you cooked so many dishes, what's your conspiracy?" Ye Fuyue asked bluntly.
"How can you talk like that? What conspiracy are you talking about? I spent money to buy so many vegetables for you, but you don't even get a good word from me!" Father Ye looked fierce.
Seeing this, Shen Yao put down his chopsticks and stopped eating.
Seeing that Shen Yao didn't eat anymore, Mother Ye said with a smile, "Eat it, it would be a waste if you don't."
"Tell me, what's going on between you two?" Chen Yao said, "We both know how you treated Fu Yue before."
Mother Ye looked a little embarrassed, exchanged glances with Father Ye, and let Father Ye speak.
Father Ye said, "Chen Yao, we all know that you are in the security department of the First Factory. Your words carry some weight in the entire First Factory. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to lend the First Factory's car to pick up the bride."
"Your mother and I think this way. Since you are so capable, can you find a job for Ye Yu in a factory? Ye Yu lives in the countryside, but he has been spoiled by us since he was a child, so how could he endure such hardship? If he gets a job, he can return to the city naturally."
"Of course, we won't let you help us for nothing. If you really help Ye Yu find a job, we will definitely thank you very much."
Shen Yao said nothing.
Ye Fuyue smiled: "Thank you profusely? How do you want to express your gratitude profusely?"
Ye's father frowned and scolded Ye Fuyue: "You have no manners! I'm talking to your man, why are you butting in?"
Shen Yao's face suddenly turned dark: "Fu Yue is the head of our family. If she has no right to interrupt, you don't have to tell me."
Father Ye's expression froze. He had never expected that Shen Yao would protect Ye Fuyue so much.
They say that only incompetent men are afraid of their wives. This Chen Yao doesn't look incompetent, so why is he so submissive to Ye Fuyue?
Ye's mother was worried that the job search for Ye Yu would fail, so she tried to smooth things over by saying, "Your father didn't mean any harm. He just missed your brother who was working in the countryside thousands of miles away, and that's why he was so worried."
"We said we would thank you profusely, and we will definitely thank you profusely. We will definitely give you the money."
Ye Fuyue smiled.
Even at this point, Ye's mother is still being so vague. It's obvious that she wants to get it for free again without paying a penny.
"Mom and Dad, do you know? Chen Yao's eldest brother is still in the countryside, and it has been several years. If Chen Yao can really find a job, he will definitely give it to his eldest brother first, so how could it be Ye Yu's turn? Even if Chen Yao doesn't find a job for his eldest brother, I don't have a job yet, so it won't be Ye Yu's turn."
"You are a little girl, and Chen Yao treats you so well. Why do you need a job?" Ye's mother said angrily.
"Having a job means having money. Who doesn't want more money? Shen Yao and I will have several children to raise in the future, so we will need even more money." Ye Fuyue said casually, which made Shen Yao smile and look forward to the days that Ye Fuyue described.
Ye's father ignored Ye Fuyue and asked Shen Yao: "Son-in-law, can you help me with this?"
"My wife has made it very clear that she can't help." Shen Yao said without hesitation.
Ye's father and mother's expressions immediately turned ugly.
Ye Fuyue stood up and said, "You two, if you have something to say, just say it directly. Why are you beating around the bush? You even cooked a table full of dishes, which must have cost a lot of money. But whether you can help or not, you can't help. Chen Yao will definitely prioritize his family first. You've got the wrong person."
After saying that, Ye Fuyue said to Shen Yao, "Let's go."
Shen Yao immediately stood up and followed Ye Fuyue.
As soon as they left, Ye's father got angry at Ye's mother: "You wasteful woman! You spent several dollars preparing this table of food, and not only did you waste the food, but you also didn't get anything done!"
