Chapter 51 It’s All Aunt’s Fault



Chapter 51 It's all Auntie's fault

While Mr. Huo and Mrs. Huo were still looking at each other, the woman on the sofa had already stood up and walked towards Ye Leyao and Huo Yan with a smile.

"You must have had a hard time on the way back, come and sit down!" The woman spoke softly, with a smile on her face.

If you didn't know, you would think that Ye Leyao and Huo Yan were very familiar with her.

Not only did Ye Leyao not move forward, he even cautiously took a half step back.

[No, Xiao Qingmei, didn't you just return to China? Today should be your first day at our house, right? Aren't you a guest? Why do you have the demeanor of a hostess more than my mother? ]

Thinking of this, Ye Leyao looked at Mr. Huo again, his eyes full of condemnation.

[Although Xiao Qingmei's family just went bankrupt and her husband divorced her, it is indeed quite pitiful, but you can't bring everyone home, Dad Huo! ]

[Dad Huo, the gentle knife, every knife is deadly! ]

Dad Huo felt a pain in his chest.

No!

When did he indulge in gentleness?

Ye Leyao, you must speak with facts and evidence!

Also, Song Yu was not brought back by himself!

Thinking of this, Dad Huo got angry and turned his head to glare at Huo Jing.

Huo Jing: "..."

Strictly speaking, this has nothing to do with him!

Song Yu found the Huo family company and said that she was a relative of the Huo family, so Huo Jing had to meet her.

It happened that Huo's mother was in the company at this time...

Huo Jing looked at Dad Huo speechlessly.

It was obviously mom who brought the person back, why don't you blame mom Huo?

Dad Huo turned his head and avoided Huo Jing's accusing eyes.

What does this have to do with mom Huo? She just saw an old friend who she hadn't seen for decades at the company, and then invited her home for dinner.

It's all Huo Jing's fault!

Mom Huo observed the eye contact between the father and son, clenched her fists tightly on the side, and even pinched her arm to hold back from laughing.

It's really not her fault. She already knew Song Yu, and after not seeing each other for so many years, she invited her back for dinner. How could she know that it was such a coincidence?

Huo Yan didn't know what Huo's father and Huo Jing were thinking. He just felt that what Ye Leyao said made a lot of sense. He nodded with deep understanding, and followed Ye Leyao to step back half a step. His face turned a little cold, and he looked up at his parents who were still motionless in the living room and asked, "Mom and Dad, who is this?"

This question was very impolite. Not only did he not take the woman in front of him seriously, but he also completely ignored her greetings and concerns.

The woman's expression was a little hurt.

Ye Leyao observed very carefully and did not miss the changes in her facial expressions. Seeing this, he sighed again:

[Sure enough, another histrionic personality! 】

After sighing, Ye Leyao also looked at Mother Huo and asked, "Mother Huo, are you a guest?"

Mother Huo glared at Father Huo.

Why don't you introduce them? Are you going to leave the children alone?

Father Huo was reluctant, but he still stood up with Mother Huo, walked towards Ye Leyao and Huo Yan, and introduced them, saying, "This is my cousin. Her mother is your grandmother's sister. She just returned to China yesterday. You can just call her Aunt Song."

After the introduction, he briefly introduced Ye Leyao and Huo Yan to Song Yu.

There are quite a few descriptions of Song Yu in the original novel, so Ye Leyao knew Song Yu's identity without Father Huo's introduction.

What made Ye Leyao a little confused was:

[According to the timeline of the novel, Song Yu should have contacted Huo's father as soon as she returned to China. Why did Huo's father say that she only returned yesterday? ]

Huo's father looked at Huo's mother. She

was also puzzled.

Then Ye Leyao suddenly realized and said:

[No wonder I didn't see Song Yu at the Yang family banquet before. But then again, she really likes Huo's father. She came to our house the next day after she came back. ] [Could it be that she

has been secretly in love with Huo's father since she was a child? ]

Huo's father was completely confused when he heard

this. What is going on?

The Song family immigrated when Song Yu was only three years old. The last time they met was when he and Huo's mother got married!

How could a three-year-old kid have a secret crush on him?

Huo's father immediately went to see Huo's mother with grievance.

Mother Huo pursed her lips tightly, pretending to be angry.

Father Huo: "..."

He was really wronged!

Why was he really angry with me?

Looking at Song Yu next to her, she had suppressed the injury on her face and smiled at Ye Leyao and Huo Yan again: "Hello, I didn't expect the children to grow up so big in the blink of an eye." She paused and turned her head to look at Huo's father, "It's my fault, cousin, don't be angry with the children. I haven't been back for too long. It's normal that the children don't recognize me..."

Huo's father was aggrieved, and he couldn't explain directly to Huo's mother because of the presence of outsiders. Hearing Song Yu's ambiguous words, he immediately got angry: "Look at what you are saying?"

Song Yu thought that Huo's father wanted to comfort herself, and the smile on the corner of her mouth deepened, and she said with emotion: "Cousin..."

"Which eye of yours saw that I was angry with the children?"

"Also, don't say Huo Yan and Xiaoyao haven't seen you, even Huo Jing hasn't seen you either, right?"

Huo's father became angrier and angrier, and his tone became more and more impolite: "Your family has been abroad, and you haven't come back a few times. Even when my mother passed away, no one from your family came. Now that your family is bankrupt, you know to come back and live with your relatives. Hehe." As soon

as the voice fell, the whole villa hall fell into silence.

Ye Leyao couldn't help but laughed out loud in his heart.

[Hahahaha, my God, what's wrong with Huo's father today? Did he install a bitch-detecting radar on himself? In an instant, he realized that Xiao Qingmei's words were full

of meaning. ] [If Huo's father had always been like this towards Xiao Qingmei, then I wouldn't have to worry! ]

Dad Huo was originally angry, but when he heard what Ye Leyao said, he felt proud and unhappy.

Who did Ye Leyao think he was?

He had lived for most of his life, and he had seen all kinds of people. How could he not tell a green tea girl from another?

Ye Leyao didn't know what Dad Huo was thinking. His eyes never left Song Yu, and he was always watching her reaction.

Song Yu was obviously stunned.

She just felt that Ye Leyao and Huo Yan had completely ignored her, which made her a little embarrassed, so she wanted to express her dissatisfaction in a tactful way.

According to common sense, if the elders think the younger ones are impolite, shouldn't the parents directly blame the younger ones?

Why did Dad Huo have to be so bashful to himself?

They even said that they didn't even attend their aunt's funeral. Isn't that to say she's unfaithful and unfilial?

Song Yu had never met someone who didn't give her face in her life. She couldn't keep the smile on her face anymore, and her eyes turned red: "Cousin... I..."

[Oh no, come on, little childhood sweetheart, how old are you, and you're still crying? ]

Ye Leyao looked horrified.

Mother Huo pretended to be angry and glared at Father Huo, then said: "Look at what you said! Xiaoyu and her family didn't come to attend the condolences, it must be because they were busy with company affairs before and couldn't get away, right?"

Song Yu's tears were about to fall. Hearing what Mother Huo said, she forced a smile at her: "Sister-in-law, you still care about me..."

"Look, now that the company has gone bankrupt and you're not busy anymore, you came back immediately?" Mother Huo finished the rest of the words.

Ye Leyao: "Cough cough cough cough——"

[I really almost couldn't hold it back hahahaha. 】

【Ahem, I'm done for. I got choked by my saliva——】

Huo Yan quickly turned his head to prevent Song Yu from seeing the smile on his face. He pretended to care about Ye Leyao and patted his back: "Are you okay?"

Ye Leyao shook his head: "No, I'm fine..."

【Quick, quick, I want to see what expression Xiao Qingmei has now? 】

Song Yu stood still. She really didn't expect that she would be embarrassed by Huo's father and mother.

Her face was pale and blue at this time, and her eyes were full of emotions. She couldn't cry anymore. She clenched her hands tightly on both sides. After a long while, she said in a hoarse voice: "I... I know it's too late for me to say this now. What happened back then was indeed wrong for our family. I'm sorry..."

"But cousin, sister-in-law, I hope you understand me. When I just got married to William, the situation in his family was really complicated, and I really didn't have time to rush back..."

"Don't say it." Mother Huo interrupted her and winked at Father Huo.

She still wanted to find out whether Song Yu's purpose of coming to her house was for Father Huo. If she pressed the question, she was really afraid that she would get angry and run away, and there would be no fun.

Father Huo received what Mother Huo meant, and he was very helpless about it, but he still said, "It's all in the past, so we won't bring up the past," and then he looked at Ye Leyao and Huo Yan, "Go upstairs and change your clothes, the whole family is waiting for you to come back for dinner."

Ye Leyao was so happy to see the excitement, and nodded repeatedly when he heard what Father Huo said, "Okay, I'll change my clothes and go downstairs."

When Ye Leyao and Huo Yan changed their clothes and came down, Father Huo, Mother Huo, and Huo Jing all sat down around the dining table.

Ye Leyao glanced around and didn't see Song Yu, and was a little surprised.

[Huh? Didn't you say you wanted to stay for dinner? Could it be that after we left, Father Huo and Mother Huo got stronger again and drove her away? ]

Mother Huo was amused.

What was she thinking?

After finally following them back to the Huo family, would Song Yu leave so easily?

Although Huo's mother didn't have much contact with Song Yu, she had heard from her late mother when she was young that Song Yu looked arrogant, but in fact, he was a person who would do anything to achieve his goals.

After their family immigrated abroad, their foundation was not solid.

Song Yu's ex-husband William was from a famous European noble family. It was reasonable that the man's family would not recognize Song Yu's identity, but Song Yu did it.

And just now, the couple's words were so unpleasant, and they were obviously mocking Song Yu, but Song Yu didn't get angry, but pretended to be weak and apologized. You can imagine Song Yu's scheming and means.

No wonder Ye Leyao said that in the original story, Song Yu broke up their family.

Mother Huo's eyes swept through everyone at the table one by one, and finally fell on Ye Leyao, and a faint smile suddenly appeared on her lips.

It's just a pity that with their little Yao around, no matter what Song Yu wants to do, it will be in vain.

[Huh? What are you smiling at, Mother Huo? ]

Ye Leyao noticed Mother Huo's eyes and blinked slowly.

[Could it be that you missed me too much after not seeing me for a few days? ]

Mother Huo thought of the hot searches that have been going on for the past few days, and sighed in her heart.

That's true!

But I still have to explain: "Your Aunt Song went to the bathroom, let's wait for her."

[So that's it, it's good that she didn't leave. 】

Ye Leyao breathed a sigh of relief, took out his mobile phone and began to look through the relevant plot in his memo.

【After all, our family is the villain in the novel, so the plot about Xiao Qingmei proposing to live in the Huo family is still described very clearly. 】

【Let me see... I found it! 】

【So that's the case, then everything makes sense. The original plot is that the second brother did not see Su Rui's true face and really broke off relations with the family. As soon as he left, Huo's father and mother were very sad, and even had a very fierce quarrel because of the second brother. After this quarrel, the two did not reconcile, and they were always in a cold war. They even had a quarrel on the day they went to the Yang family to attend the banquet! 】Huo Yan

suddenly felt guilty when he heard this, and quickly lowered his head and drank a sip of water to cover it up.

Huo's father and mother looked at him reproachfully, and said nothing more, quietly waiting for Ye Leyao's next words.

[Because they were still in the cold war, Huo's father and mother naturally did not stay together at the banquet. At this critical moment, the childhood sweetheart came out and recognized Huo's father! ]

[She really knows how to pick the time! ]

Ye Leyao gritted his teeth.

The other members of the Huo family nodded one after another.

That's right.

She happened to be there at the critical moment when the couple was quarreling.

And then what?

What happened next?

Ye Leyao continued to mutter in his heart:

[Not long after Dad Huo and Xiao Qingmei met, a fire broke out in the Yang family. Dad Huo accidentally injured his arm while avoiding the fire. Xiao Qingmei drove Dad Huo to the hospital without even notifying Mom Huo! This is too much! ]

[It was a fire. Mom Huo thought of Dad Huo first and was very worried. She was even ready to break into the fire scene to look for people. If she hadn't been stopped by someone, the consequences... would be unimaginable! ]

Ye Leyao felt distressed when he saw the words.

[Xiao Qingmei is too much! ]

Not only is it too much!

I have to praise him for his high level!

Huo Yan and Huo Jing frowned.

Huo's father was also frightened and quickly held Huo's mother's hand.

As Ye Leyao was present, he couldn't say anything, so he took out his mobile phone and typed a line of words: "Don't worry, I will never quarrel with you in the future."

Huo's mother was angry when she heard it, and now when she saw the line of words that Huo's father typed on the phone, the corners of her mouth instantly rose uncontrollably.

Ye Leyao's thoughts continued:

[When Huo's mother rushed to the hospital, Huo's father had just finished the operation and had not woken up yet, Xiao Qingmei deliberately pretended to be very close to Huo's father, and of course Huo's mother misunderstood! ] [After Huo's father

woke up from the anesthesia, Huo's mother quarreled with him again. Dad Huo felt very sad that Mom Huo didn't care about his injury, but Mom Huo felt that Dad Huo was too close to Xiao Qingmei. After this quarrel, Mom Huo never visited Dad Huo again. Until the day when Dad Huo was discharged from the hospital, Mom Huo had planned to have a good talk with Dad Huo. As a result, she didn't see Dad Huo at all when she arrived at the hospital, but only saw Xiao Qingmei. 】

Ye Leyao's tone suddenly rose:

【The most important thing is-Xiao Qingmei actually wore the wedding ring that was secretly sold by the second aunt at this time! 】

The whole family took a breath of cold air when they heard this.

Misunderstandings plus misunderstandings, isn't this just a divorce buff? !

Fortunately, fortunately!

So far, nothing they need to worry about has happened.

Ye Leyao also breathed a sigh of relief.

[Fortunately, none of these things happened!]

At this moment, Song Yu's gentle voice rang out again: "Huh? Why haven't you started eating yet? Are you waiting for me?"

Everyone at the table raised their eyes and looked at Song Yu.

Song Yu paused. She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that their family seemed to have increased their hostility towards her?

Song Yu's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

No way?

She just came back, and she hadn't even had a good chat with Mr. Huo alone, but they discovered her purpose?

Impossible.

Unless their whole family has the ability to read minds!

If the Huo family really knew what Song Yu was thinking at this moment, they might not be able to help laughing out loud.

Sorry, they really do have the ability to read minds, but they didn't read Song Yu's mind.

Song Yu calmed down secretly, held his right hand, walked quickly to his seat and sat down: "Sorry to keep you waiting for so long."

Mother Huo was the first to put on a smile: "It's okay, now that everyone is here, let's eat."

The Huo family does not have the rule of not talking while eating.

Mother Huo was very interested in the recording of Ye Leyao and Huo Yan in this episode, so she asked a few questions.

After all, there was a sensitive topic in this episode, so Duan Haoyan was mentioned while chatting.

Ye Leyao immediately pricked up his ears and tilted his head to look at Huo Yan.

Huo Yan cleared his throat: "What's there to talk about?"

Huo Jing looked dimly: "After all, he is your former rival in love, why is it difficult to talk?"

Huo's father and mother couldn't help laughing.

Huo's mother said, "To be honest, I didn't expect you to publicly clarify on the show."

Huo Yan said, "That can't be helped. If I don't clarify, with Duan Haoyan's bad temper, he will definitely pester me and Ye Leyao for a whole episode. It's annoying."

Ye Leyao nodded.

[Indeed.]

The family chatted, and Song Yu couldn't get a word in. She thought for a moment and asked, "What variety show is it? I've been abroad for too long and rarely pay attention to these. Why is Xiaoyan on the show with her love rival?"

When she spoke, the eyes of the Huo family instantly focused on her. Huo Yan evaded the question

, "It's all in the past. It doesn't matter."

The chef happened to bring a plate of Australian lobster.

Huo Yan said, "Aunt Song, please try it."

His perfunctory tone was too obvious, and Song Yu's face flashed with embarrassment.

Looking at the large plate of lobsters in front of her, Song Yu said, "Okay, then I'll peel one for Xiao Yan first?"

Huo Yan shook his head quickly, "No, no."

"What about Xiao Yao?" Song Yu looked at Ye Leyao expectantly.

Ye Leyao shook his head like a wave drum, "Aunt Song, Huo's father and mother taught me to be independent since I was a child, so I peel everything I want to eat myself!"

[Really!]

Song Yu could only say, "Okay, then I'll eat it myself."

Huo's mother lowered her head and wanted to laugh again.

Suddenly, Ye Leyao's puzzled voice rang out:

[Eh-wait, why does the ring on Xiao Qingmei's hand look so familiar?]

The Huo family members paused at the same time.

The Huo family's dining table was a round table, and Huo Yan and Huo Jing sat right opposite Song Yu.

They were a bit far away, so they could only glimpse the general style of the ring.

Don't say it, it really looks a bit familiar!

Huo Jing and Huo Yan looked at each other.

No way?

Song Yu was sitting next to Mother Huo, and Mother Huo could see clearly as long as she tilted her head slightly.

But when she just came, didn't Song Yu have any jewelry on her hands?

Why did she suddenly wear a ring?

Mother Huo was puzzled and couldn't help but tilt her head slightly.

At this moment, Ye Leyao's horrified voice rang out:

[No way! There can't be two wedding rings, right? Isn't Mother Huo's dove egg in Zhuang Lin's hand?] Mother

Huo's pupils widened.

Is it really her own dove egg?

That's not right.

Mother Huo went to see Father Huo.

Father Huo was also shocked.

It's impossible, he had someone specially customize that ring, and there is a special code on the ring, there is only one in the world!

The ring on Song Yu's finger -

Ye Leyao also knew that Mother Huo's ring was precious, so he quickly reacted:

[Could it be a replica? ]

[In the original novel, it was because of this ring that the Huos' father and mother divorced. The auction house has a record that Zheng Xiu bought the ring, and Zhuang Lin deliberately showed it off in front of us. It is impossible for Mother Huo and I to see it wrong...]

[So... it was because Xiao Qingmei didn't buy Mother Huo's ring that she didn't show up at the Yang family banquet and hurried back yesterday? ]

Huo Jing frowned.

So this is the butterfly effect that changed the development of the plot?

Huo Yan thought it made a lot of sense, but he still didn't understand why Song Yu insisted on holding on to this ring.

Mother Huo reacted instantly.

She didn't wear the ring when she went to the company, but she showed it on purpose at this time, wasn't she showing it to herself?

Unfortunately, this ring is not Huo's mother's wedding ring at all.

Song Yu should not know about this, otherwise she wouldn't wear it on her hand so blatantly.

Ye Leyao also thought of this.

[Song Yu really wants to sow discord between Huo's father and mother. Unfortunately, because she rarely returns to China, she only saw Huo's mother's ring at Huo's father and mother's wedding, so she never thought that she actually bought a replica, hahaha. ]

[However, if Huo's mother admitted that this ring was hers at this time, and then accidentally revealed the reason why she took the wedding ring out to sell——]

Ye Leyao couldn't help it, and smiled with his head down.

[How could I be so bad! ]

Everyone else had a smile in their eyes.

Who said Ye Leyao is bad?

Ye Leyao, maintaining harmonious family relationships, good!

Song Yu, provoking parents' relationship, bad!

After a while, the chef served other seafood one after another.

There were oysters and king crabs.

Although these dishes had been processed before being served, due to the size of the seafood itself, they still needed to be slightly assisted by hands when eating.

When the whole family had almost finished eating, Mother Huo seemed to suddenly discover something and turned her head to look at Song Yu: "Xiao Yu, why does this ring on your finger look so familiar? It's pretty."

Song Yu put the ring on her hand after going to the bathroom. She had been waiting for Mother Huo to say this for the whole afternoon!

A hint of pride flashed in her eyes, and then she raised her hand casually and said with a smile: "Really? I like it too. It was given to me by... a very important person."

She said this vaguely, and glanced at Huo's father as if inadvertently.

This scene was seen by Huo's mother and others.

Ye Leyao sighed:

[Fuck, her trick is really good! If Huo's mother didn't know the whereabouts of her pigeon egg, she would have started to suspect Huo's father at this time, right? ]

[What a pity——]

Ye Leyao looked like he was watching a good show.

Then he heard Huo's mother say with a smile: "It looks exactly like my wedding ring, don't you think?"

The last sentence was said to Huo's father. Of course,

Mr. Huo had to cooperate with Mrs. Huo at this time. He came over to take a look and nodded directly: "It's your wedding ring."

Song Yu never expected that Mrs. Huo would directly admit that this was her ring. Isn't it normal to see through it but not say it? What exactly does Lin Junyi want to do? Before Song Yu thought about how to answer, she heard Mrs. Huo asked again: "Do you know where the person who gave you the ring bought it?" Song Yu's face turned pale. Mrs. Huo had no misunderstanding about the source of her ring. Now her plan was completely disrupted. She rolled her eyes and said: "I don't know. He didn't say when he gave it to me..." Mrs. Huo: "Oh, so that's it. I took this ring out to sell some time ago. I didn't expect it to be bought by someone you know." Song Yu was completely dumbfounded. What? Did Mrs. Huo take the initiative to sell it? Then she would be a complete failure if she wore this ring today! Thinking of this, Song Yu glanced at Mr. Huo, only to find that he didn't even look at her. She gritted her teeth secretly, but she didn't expect that this trick didn't create a rift between them. So what should she do now? She bought this ring at a high price. It's impossible for Mrs. Huo to say that this ring is her wedding ring, so she should generously give this ring to her, right? Song Yu tried hard to maintain the expression on her face and suppress all the emotions in her heart. Thinking that she couldn't let the topic fall into a dull tone, she followed Mrs. Huo's words and asked, "Sister-in-law, such an important ring as a wedding ring, why do you suddenly want to sell it?" Ye Leyao could hardly hold back his laughter at this moment. [Mother Huo really thought of this! Hahahaha I can’t wait to see Song Yu’s expression after she knows the “truth”! 】

Huo Jing and Huo Yan were equally looking forward to it, and the corners of their mouths even lifted.

Mother Huo turned her head and didn't say anything, but her face was meaningful.

Song Yu felt puzzled, and her mind was also a little confused after her plan was disrupted, so she said without thinking too much: "What's the matter? Sister-in-law , is it inconvenient to tell me?"

"No," Mother Huo sighed, "It's just a bit embarrassing to talk about it. I have a cousin who is not up to her expectations. She stole my jewelry and resold it. It happened that she stole my wedding ring that day and was caught by me."

"Then since you have been caught, why do you still want to sell the wedding ring?" Song Yu suddenly felt that something seemed to be wrong.

She subconsciously reached out and stroked the ring on her middle finger, and then raised her eyes to scan the other people at the table.

At this sight, Song Yu was stunned.

Why are the expressions of the other people present so subtle?

Could it be that they all know that it was Mother Huo who took the initiative to sell the ring?

Song Yu bit her lip subconsciously. Wouldn't that make her look like a little embarrassment?

Then she heard Mother Huo say with embarrassment: "Because... the way she steals jewelry is really too difficult to accept. In order to prevent me from discovering, she always swallows the jewelry alive first. This ring is the same."

The same?

The same?

Song Yu's mind was blank for a moment.

The next moment, she suddenly covered her mouth with her hand and ran towards the bathroom.

Ye Leyao couldn't hold it back any longer and laughed out loud.
