Chapter 52: Marrying for Sister
Song Yu ran to the bathroom and looked at Tailangxi. After Ye Leyao laughed out loud, everyone else present couldn't help laughing.
After everyone finished laughing, Mother Huo cleared her throat and said, "How about I go over to comfort her?"
Ye Leyao wiped the tears from her eyes.
[Comfort what? Tell Xiao Qingmei that although "Pigeon" had a rough life and rich experience, that's all in the past? ]
[Or are you going to tell Xiao Qingmei about Pigeon's adventures in detail? ]
[No, I can't help laughing again, hahaha. ]
The rest of the family looked up at Mother Huo at the same time.
In fact, it's okay to tell Pigeon's experience in detail in the past. They are really looking forward to it.
So are you going?
Mother Huo stood up leisurely. Since everyone was looking forward to it, she would tell Song Yu about the experience of the pigeon egg in detail. After all, she had come to her wearing a ring. How could she let it go?
However, everyone knew what she said. Mother Huo still smiled appropriately: "After all, she is a guest. I'll go over to see what's going on."
Ye Leyao was the best at observing people's expressions. He did not miss the expression on Mother Huo's face and was immediately excited.
[Ah, Mother Huo, you actually thought of this too!]
Mother Huo smiled.
Although she did think of this, Ye Leyao thought more comprehensively!
The guest bathroom is some distance away from the restaurant, but fortunately the first floor of the villa is very quiet. Even if it is more
than ten meters away, you can still hear the clear voice of Mrs. Huo: "Xiaoyu? What's wrong with you? Are you vomiting? What's going on? Is the food spoiled?" Ye Leyao couldn't control the corners of his mouth, and they curled up.
[What does this have to do with food! It's obvious that Xiaoqingmei can't get over the hurdle in her heart! ]
Father Huo nodded in agreement.
But he really thinks Song Yu deserves it.
Originally, their two families had no blood relationship. After the death of the two old people, the relationship between their two families became more distant, and Song Yu didn't even think about maintaining a relationship with them at that time.
Even if it was really you, Song Yu, who had no choice, now had to put aside the old friendship.
Then Song Yu should have behaved himself when he came back for refuge, but Song Yu had those inappropriate thoughts.
Then don't blame them for being rude.
The bathroom seemed to have replied to Mother Huo's words. Mother Huo was a little surprised: "It's not that the food is spoiled... Is it because of the ring?"
"I really didn't expect that this ring would be in your hand. It's also my fault. If I had noticed your ring earlier..." "
But you don't need to worry. Although my sister did swallow the ring, I found it later! Oh-why are you vomiting even more?"
Mother Huo's tone was very concerned: "Xiaoyu, are you really okay?"
The family sat at the dining table, their stomachs ached from laughing.
[Even after vomiting like this, it doesn't look like nothing is wrong! Hahaha——】
Mrs. Huo said: "Xiao Yu, you really don't have to worry too much. The ring must have been cleaned. Are you...really okay? Or should I contact the family doctor to come and take a look? I'm really worried if you keep vomiting like this."
"Don't see a doctor?" Mrs. Huo said in an embarrassed tone, "How can I do that? It's my fault. If I hadn't called you home for dinner, this wouldn't have happened. I wouldn't have called you if I had known."
Ye Leyao laughed even louder when he heard this.
【Little childhood sweetheart came back from thousands of miles away just to stay at our house. Mrs. Huo even said that she wouldn't have invited her if she had known. Hahaha, isn't this murderous! 】
【But I guess what Xiao Qingmei thought at that time was that following Huo Ma back to our house for dinner was the beginning of her rise to power. I guess she never thought that it would become the beginning of gastric lavage, right? 】
Huo Yan: "Pfft."
What a gastric lavage!
But after all, it's all for "wei", why is it different? !
Huo Ma didn't come back, and the others had almost finished eating, so they left the table and sat down on the sofa in the living room.
After another five minutes, Huo Ma came back to the living room slowly.
Huo Dad hurriedly asked: "What's wrong?"
"You are quite concerned?" Huo Ma said faintly.
Huo Dad choked: "Don't misunderstand me!"
He just wanted to know what the situation was like now, he called gossip.
Of course, Mrs. Huo knew that Mr. Huo didn't really care about Xiao Qingmei. She smiled and said, "She's still vomiting. I asked someone to send her some clean clothes and let her take a shower before coming out. After all, she's a guest of our house. We can't really treat her badly."
Ye Leyao nodded repeatedly, "Very thoughtful!"
[But I think she can still be less thoughtful! Mrs. Huo is still kind.]
Mrs. Huo laughed.
The family waited quietly in the living room for more than ten minutes before Song Yu came out of the bathroom.
She took a shower, changed her clothes, and the makeup on her face was no longer as delicate as before, but it could be seen that she had reapplied her makeup. Although she looked a little wolfish, she still gave them a somewhat forced smile when she saw the Huo family after coming out.
Ye Leyao was extremely shocked.
[No, how can the little childhood sweetheart have such a good attitude?]
[I thought she would start crying when she came out!]
Mother Huo did not expect Song Yu to react like this, but her expression did not change. Seeing Song Yu stood up affectionately, she said, "Xiao Yu, are you feeling better now?"
Song Yu forced a smile and nodded, saying, "I'm much better now. Thank you for your concern, sister-in-law."
"Come and sit down," Mother Huo pulled her to the sofa and sat down. Her eyes fell on her left hand and she asked in confusion, "Where's the ring? Did you take it off?"
Ye Leyao quickly raised his head to look at Song Yu.
Sure enough, he did not miss the forbearance that flashed across her face.
[Pfft, she is still very angry, hahaha.]
How could Song Yu not be angry.
But Song Yu couldn't completely turn against the Huo family yet.
Song Yu took a deep breath, and her hands on the side clenched. After a few seconds, her eyes suddenly turned red. She looked at Mother Huo and apologized directly: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry... I didn't know that the ring was your wedding ring. I shouldn't wear this ring in front of you and my cousin..."
Ye Leyao was shocked.
[Don't say it, the level of Xiaoqingmei is really a bit high. ]
[After showing weakness like this, it's not easy for us to find out her faults. ]
Mother Huo didn't expect Song Yu to be so flexible, and raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Then she heard Song Yu continue: "Sister-in-law, I definitely can't take this ring, or I will return it to the original owner?"
As she said that, Song Yu took out the ring and handed it to Mother Huo.
How could Mother Huo accept it?
She smiled and shook her head, and at the same time, she did not forget to poke Song Yu again: "No need, it's just a ring. Your cousin likes to buy me jewelry when he has nothing to do. My house already has too much jewelry to put away. Why do I need you to return this ring to me?"
Song Yu's face changed slightly after hearing this, but she still said with red eyes: "But this ring is not the wedding ring of you and your cousin?"
Mother Huo smiled and said nothing.
Father Huo came over from the side, put his arm around Mother Huo's shoulders and smiled: "Why do we need a ring to prove our relationship?"
Father Huo's words seemed to be euphemistic, but in fact they were satirizing Song Yu's little thoughts.
As soon as the words fell, if it wasn't for the wrong timing, Ye Leyao would have wanted to applaud!
[Dad Huo said it very well! He is worthy of being Dad Huo! 】
Dad Huo snorted twice in his heart and glanced at Ye Leyao.
He didn't forget that Ye Leyao had said before that he was immersed in the land of gentleness!
Song Yu's face turned pale: "Cousin, I didn't mean that..."
"Whether you mean that or not, you give us the feeling that you mean that." Dad Huo really didn't want to play along with Song Yu, he wished he could throw Song Yu out right now.
"I..." Song Yu choked, his eyes fell on Mom Huo's face, and he didn't miss the flash of ridicule in her eyes.
It was also at this moment that Song Yu suddenly realized -
no way?
Could it be that everything that just happened was not a coincidence?
His plan had just failed, and he suddenly learned the "truth" about the ring. Song Yu was disgusted and angry.
But before she could think about the key points, Mother Huo came over to comfort her.
At that time, Song Yu was still thinking, could it be that she was wrong
? Mother Huo did not notice her little thoughts, did she really care about herself?
So after taking a shower, Song Yu quickly sorted out her expression.
She still wanted to stay in the Huo family, and she would endure some small grievances if she could.
Until she heard what Father Huo said, a somewhat terrifying thought suddenly jumped out-
couldn't they have seen through her thoughts a long time ago?
Once this idea took root, it quickly began to sprout.
Song Yu was too smart. She went through what had just happened one by one in her mind, and she understood it.
The diamond ring on her hand was so big, and Lin Junyi was sitting next to her, how could she not see it?
Not only Lin Junyi, but also other people present.
By the way, when she ran to the toilet, did anyone laugh?
Song Yu's eyes fell on Ye Leyao, and her teeth clenched.
They knew it a long time ago!
Not only did they recognize it, but they also deliberately didn't remind her, and had to wait until Song Yu finished her meal before telling her.
Even after Song Yu knew the truth and went to the toilet, they didn't forget to add fuel to the fire.
Their whole family did it on purpose!
Then why should she continue to act with them?
Song Yu was suddenly startled and broke into a cold sweat: "You - knew it a long time ago?"
She almost said the last sentence with gritted teeth.
Mother Huo waved away Father Huo's arm, with a proper smile on her face: "Know what?"
Song Yu stopped pretending to cry. She stared at Mother Huo, clenched her teeth, and said firmly: "You did it on purpose!"
Ye Leyao really couldn't hold back his laughter and burst out laughing.
[Little childhood sweetheart finally reacted! ]
Song Yu raised her head suddenly and glared at Ye Leyao fiercely: "You little brat just now--"
Ye Leyao was caught off guard by her look, and his brows wrinkled.
[Isn't it just glaring? I can do it too! 】
Mother Huo couldn't bear it any longer, and said in a cold voice: "Song Yu, who are you calling?"
Song Yu's chest heaved violently. He turned to look at Mother Huo, no longer calling her sister-in-law, and said angrily: "Lin Junyi, since you have already seen through my thoughts, why bother pretending with me?"
Mother Huo smiled suddenly: "Indeed, you are right, I have already seen through your thoughts, and there is really no need to pretend with you."
After that, she glanced at Father Huo.
Father Huo said directly: "Butler, please send the guests away."
"Wait!" Song Yu didn't expect Mother Huo to actually admit it and wanted to send her away directly. She gritted her teeth secretly. She was still a little uncalm, but she certainly couldn't leave like this. She clenched her fists, took a deep breath and said, "I can go, but you have to give me some compensation, right?"
Song Yu slammed the ring in her hand heavily on the tea table, and glanced at the people present with cold eyes: "Is this the way of hospitality in your Huo family to make me vomit like this in the bathroom? If I tell this to others..."
"Hey? Didn't you go to the bathroom to induce vomiting?" Ye Leyao said suddenly.
Song Yu got angry when this matter was mentioned, and said angrily: "Why should I induce vomiting? It's all because of you. If you hadn't sold this ring..."
"What you said is wrong," Ye Leyao shook his head, "Mother Huo did sell a ring, but this ring of yours is not Mother Huo's." After
the words fell, Mother Huo couldn't help but curled her lips.
Huo Jing and Huo Yan couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Song Yu was stunned for a moment, and her eyes swept over everyone in the room. After a while, she said hoarsely: "What do you mean? What do you mean..."
Dad Huo then spoke softly: "There is only one ring in the world that I customized for Junyi, and a unique number is engraved on the inner circle of the ring. You shouldn't know these things?"
"Although your ring looks similar, it has nothing to do with Junyi's ring."
Dad Huo couldn't help it anymore and stood up directly: "Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. Your family is not a relative of my Huo family. I used to remember the sisterhood between your mother and my mother, but now it seems that there is no need to remember the old friendship. Butler, call the bodyguard!"
Song Yu came back to her senses. She quickly picked up the ring on the coffee table and looked carefully at the inner circle of the ring.
But she had already turned the ring twice, and she didn't see the number that Mr. Huo mentioned.
Song Yu froze in place as if she was struck by lightning.
Then why did she just choke on her throat to induce vomiting in the bathroom? She
seemed to react suddenly, looking at Mr. Huo with bloodshot eyes: "So you knew my purpose at the dining table... No, even earlier..."
"So what?" Mr. Huo said in a cold tone, without even looking at Song Yu.
Song Yu's face was full of disbelief: "Impossible, this is impossible..."
They didn't have the ability to read minds, how could they know her thoughts so early?
Song Yu shook her head, and at the same time she regretted it even more.
She was too greedy. After a relationship ended, she wanted more things.
Father Huo was the target she had carefully selected for half a year. She had obviously already returned to China. How could she fail so easily when she stood in front of him?
Song Yu was filled with regret at this moment.
If she had known earlier... If she had known earlier, she would not be so greedy!
"Cousin, cousin! I was wrong... I beg you, don't..."
"Take her out!"
The housekeeper had already rushed over with bodyguards. Regardless of Song Yu's struggles and cries, he directly carried her out.
"Cousin! Sister-in-law - I was wrong, I was really wrong, don't be so ruthless and just drive me away..."
Ye Leyao listened to Song Yu's cries and shook his head.
[Why are you so ruthless? ]
[It's obviously you who have ulterior motives. We are just driving you out of our house. 】
【If you are really merciless, why don't we reveal your current situation to your lover? 】
Dad and Mom Huo looked over when they heard this.
What?
Song Yu has a lover?
What's going on?
The gossiping eyes of the whole family fell on Ye Leyao.
Song Yu's crying had faded away, and everyone was suddenly in the mood to eat melons again.
So can Ye Leyao speak quickly!
Ye Leyao just saw a plot that he had missed before when he was flipping through the memo.
【Xiao Qingmei is too proud and unwilling to accept even the slightest failure of herself. 】
【After her first marriage failed, Xiao Qingmei quickly found a new husband for herself... Unfortunately, although this man is rich and powerful, he is a pervert with a strong desire for control. 】
【During the one year that Xiao Qingmei was with him, that life was miserable. Xiao Qingmei thought about escaping every day, but unfortunately, she failed several times before and was caught... After so many escapes, only this time was successful. 】
【But you succeeded, so why do you want to target Huo's father? I think Xiao Qingmei has been with the pervert for a long time, and she has become a mentally pervert? 】
The expressions of the Huo family were a little shocked when they heard this.
So Huo's father was her second choice? Are
they really like the scapegoats?
Huo's father became even angrier.
Any normal person would not set their sights on a married man, right?
Song Yu is a psychopath.
Fortunately, with Ye Leyao, they did not let Song Yu succeed in her plan.
Ye Leyao also sighed:
[Fortunately, Mr. and Mrs. Huo are very sober and did not let the childhood sweetheart succeed! ]
Yes!
But since Song Yu has been driven out, she probably won't be embarrassed to come to their house again in the future.
Thinking of this, isn't the crisis in their family completely resolved?
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief at once.
After relaxing, it is easy to think of other things. Huo Yan suddenly said: "Ye Leyao is getting more and more famous now. He should be busy in a while. He also has to go to school. How about buying him a house outside?"
Huo's father said: "Your mother and I found a villa for Xiaoyao some time ago and we have already bought it."
"Wow! Thank you, Huo's father and mother! You are so kind!" Ye Leyao's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he thought of something and looked at Huo Yan: "But my second brother also said that he would sponsor me to buy half of the house!"
Huo Yan's eyelids jumped: "Didn't my parents buy it for you?"
"That's not the same," Ye Leyao leaned over, "Mom and Dad are Mom and Dad, and second brother is second brother, right Mom and Dad?"
Dad Huo said, "Yes."
Mom Huo smiled, "That's the reason. The house was given to Xiaoyao by your dad and me. Why don't you transfer half of the money to Xiaoyao according to the market price of the house?"
After all, if it weren't for Xiaoyao, Huo Yan would have lost more than just that little money.
Ye Leyao took out his mobile phone and asked, "How do you want to pay, brother?"
Huo Yan smiled helplessly, "How long will it take for me to transfer the money to you one by one? I'll let my assistant transfer it to you directly."
At this point, Huo Yan suddenly thought of something and looked up at Huo Jing who was not involved: "Wait, Xiaoyao, did you forget someone?"
Ye Leyao followed Huo Yan's gaze and saw Huo Jing. He blinked and said, "Yeah!"
Huo Jing looked up in confusion.
Then he heard Huo Yan say with a smile: "I will sponsor half to Xiaoyao, and the remaining half should not be given by the eldest brother?"
Huo Jing: "..."
What can he say?
There is no reason to refuse!
"Okay, I'll let Assistant Feng transfer it to you." Huo Jing said straightforwardly.
Ye Leyao jumped up happily: "Great!"
[The eldest brother is still straightforward! ]
Huo Yan: "..."
How can he not be straightforward?
Half of the money earned by the entire Huo Group is in the hands of the eldest brother! The annual dividend is more than his!
And Ye Leyao is really happy.
You know, the villa that Huo's father and mother bought for Ye Leyao is worth about 20 million.
Now not only the second brother is going to transfer 10 million to Ye Leyao, but the eldest brother is also going to transfer 10 million to Ye Leyao!
What does this mean?
This means that Ye Leyao will soon become rich!
With these 20 million, plus his own savings.
Ye Leyao was very excited.
[It seems... this money should be enough to support our whole family in our old age! ]
[Then can I retire early? ]
Huo Yan was almost choked when drinking water: "Ahem... cough..."
What retirement?
Didn't you say before that you would support our whole family?
How can 20 million be enough?
He knows how to spend money!
Huo Yan hurried to see Huo Jing.
Huo Jing had already taken out his computer and started processing the company's documents. Hearing this, he raised his head and said, "Xiaoyao, how about taking on a web drama next?"
Huo's father and mother have reached the age to retire, but Ye Leyao has not yet!
Ye Leyao was just thinking in his heart, how could he really retire?
Although his current savings are enough to support his family, if money only goes out and not in, it will be spent sooner or later. He must learn to save money!
"What script?" Ye Leyao asked.
Huo Jing said, "It's still under investigation. When you have completed all the acting courses, go for an audition."
Huo Jing was still very cautious about Ye Leyao's career planning in the entertainment industry.
As the saying goes, it is better to have less resources than to have too much.
Ye Leyao nodded and stopped worrying.
That night, it was rare that all three brothers were at home, and the house was lively.
Father Huo suddenly mentioned: "By the way, are you going to the wedding banquet of the son of the Zhong family and the eldest daughter of the Cui family tomorrow?"
Ye Leyao was playing games, and he didn't even raise his head when he heard it: "No."
After the recording of the variety show, Ye Leyao has one day off tomorrow, and he will go to acting class the day after tomorrow. How can he have time to attend a wedding banquet?
Huo Jing also said: "It depends on the situation. I have an important meeting tomorrow."
Huo Yan also shook his head.
He finally had some time off recently, and he just wanted to rest.
Mother Huo and Father Huo looked at each other with helpless expressions: "It seems that only the two of us are going."
Father Huo smiled: "Okay, then we will go."
"But speaking of which, I remember that the eldest daughter of the Cui family didn't want to marry the Zhong family before? Why did she give in recently?" Mother Huo asked.
Father Huo said, "I don't know the details, but the two families were originally in an alliance, so it's normal that Cui's daughter is unwilling."
At this point, Father Huo looked at the three children present and said, "Fortunately, our family advocates free love."
Mother Huo sighed when she mentioned this, "It's free, so free that none of them has a partner now."
Ye Leyao's fingers flew on the keyboard and laughed, "Mother Huo, have you forgotten that my second brother had a partner before, and even almost had a child!"
Huo Yan: "... Can you stop talking about this?"
The others laughed at Huo Yan mercilessly.
At this time, Ye Leyao suddenly:
[Eh - what did Father Huo say just now, Cui and Zhong families are in an alliance, and Cui's daughter is unwilling? ]
[I think I came across this plot today? ]
The radars of the people present suddenly stood up.
Ye Leyao asked, "Dad Huo, is Cui's daughter Cui Shu?"
Dad Huo nodded repeatedly, "Yes, that's her name."
No way?
Could it be another gossip?
The four of them were suddenly excited.
Huo Yan regretted again. He shouldn't have said that he wouldn't go!
Then Ye Leyao screamed in his heart:
[Ahhhh, it's really possible that they are the same person! ]
"Then, what about Cui Shu's brother? Is his name Cui Fan?" Ye Leyao asked again.
Dad Huo couldn't help it: "Do you know him?"
Ye Leyao nodded: "Cui Fan is my elementary school classmate."
[At the same time, he is also the first ruthless person to marry for his sister! ]
Everyone: "?"
Wait.
What did Ye Leyao just say?
What does marrying for your sister mean?
Who is it?
Cui Fan?
Huh?
