Chapter 305 Grandpa and Grandma's Love
Ye Jishun and Wang Guilan smiled at each other and said disapprovingly, "Kid, when did you learn to scare your grandparents? Let me tell you, your grandma and I weren't raised to be scared. If you have anything to say, just tell me now."
The purpose of Ye Beixiu and Zhang Juexia coming to see the old couple was to tell them about the property they had earned so that they could be happy.
Just as Ye Beixiu was about to speak, his mind flashed back to what his mother had done this morning, and a mischievous idea came to his mind. He then pretended to be pitiful and said, "Grandma, Grandpa, I spent a lot of money to be able to pass the exam to become a martial arts scholar."
Ye Jishun was not frightened. He just straightened up and interrupted Ye Beixiu, "Xiu'er, do you know how much money you spent?"
Zhang Juexia nudged Ye Beixiu, and Ye Beixiu gave her a reassuring look.
Wang Guilan noticed all their little actions. "Xiu'er, since ancient times, whether it's studying literature or martial arts, you need money to pave the way. This money has not been wasted. Juexia is here today. Tell me how much money you have spent. Do you still have any debts?"
Ye Beixiu just lowered his head and said nothing. Wang Guilan glanced at Zhang Juexia again.
Zhang Juexia was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead. Ye Beixiu really shouldn't have done this. The old couple were such simple people, how could he lie to them!
"Old woman, go and take out the money we have saved for our retirement."
Without saying a word, Wang Guilan walked into the house, muttering, "Your grandfather and I are getting old, and we have fewer places to spend money. You still have to continue to take the exams, and you can't live without money."
"If you need money in the future, just tell me, don't keep it to yourself. More people means more solutions, understand?"
Wang Guilan came into the house and took out a purse and handed it to Ye Beixiu. "Here is twenty-five taels of silver. Take it for emergency use first. If you still need more, your father and I will think of a solution."
The purse in Ye Beixiu's hand felt as if it weighed a thousand pounds. At this moment, he felt a little regretful that he should not have lied to his grandparents.
They have always had him in their hearts.
Ye Beixiu fell to his knees on the ground.
Wang Guilan quickly pulled him up and said, "Why are you kneeling down again, kid? Is it because you don't have enough money? How about I go to your uncle's house and ask them to think of a solution?"
Ye Beixiu buried his head in Wang Guilan's arms and replied in a slightly hoarse voice, "Grandma, we have the money, thank you!"
"You kid..."
Ye Beixiu couldn't help but let the tears flow down his face. "I knew that our grandpa and grandma loved me the most."
Wang Guilan turned her head away and secretly wiped away her tears. "My poor child, if grandpa and grandma don't love you, who else can you expect to love you?"
The grandparents and grandchildren started crying, causing Ye Jishun's eyes to turn red. He stood up angrily, "Old woman, that's enough, Beixiu. Don't hide anything from the family in the future. Do you hear me?
No matter what you do, I and your grandma will be there to help you, got it?"
"Yeah. Grandpa, grandma, actually, I just lied to you. I shouldn't have done that. I was wrong."
Wang Guilan saw the clue and gently pushed Ye Beixiu away. "This morning, I heard your mother went to your house. Did she cause any trouble again? Tell me and I'll go find her."
Ye Beixiu helped Wang Guilan to sit on the chair, "Grandma, it's okay."
"Hmph, nothing? Don't lie to an old woman like me. I've been with her for many years, and I know everything she wants to say.
Juexia, if Beixiu doesn't tell you, you tell him!"
Ye Beixiu quickly protected Zhang Juexia. To be honest, he didn't want to let this little thing at home get her into trouble. "Grandma, I told her that my mother wanted me to take Beili and Beifeng to the county town to study. I... I really had no choice but to tell her that I owed money, and she was scared away.
She was afraid that the debt collector would come looking for her, so she was busy distancing herself from me and told me to call her Third Aunt from now on.
"She's really shameless. I feel embarrassed for them when she makes such a loud calculation.
She doesn't recognize you, so you shouldn't recognize her in the future. I think you can just treat her as your third aunt.
In the past, I didn’t want to mention this, and I didn’t dare to mention it, for fear of hurting your feelings.
Now that you have married and become capable, it is she who is not blessed enough to share your happiness. If you want to deny a mother like this, just don’t acknowledge her!
From now on, you and Juexia just live your life well, and that's all."
Wang Guilan's words warmed Ye Beixiu's already cold heart.
The tears that Ye Beixiu had been suppressing were now welling up in his eyes.
Even Zhang Juexia felt that the elderly Wang Guilan was responsible and wise.
Although Ye Beixiu lost her mother's love, she was able to make up for it from her. She is truly a good grandmother.
After Ye Beixiu calmed down, Wang Guilan suddenly changed the subject. She looked him up and down, "What's the matter? You've become so powerful after being criticized by Wu Xiucai that you're actually plotting against your grandparents.
Is it because your grandfather and I have no intention of helping you that you won’t come to us again in the future?”
Ye Beixiu was feeling upset at the moment. He knew how his grandparents treated him. It was just a flash of thought in his mind, or he simply wanted to tease them.
"Grandpa, grandma, I was wrong. I know you guys are good to me. I didn't think too much about it. I just wanted to tease you."
Ye Jishun patted his chest and said, "Kid, you know very well that your grandma and I are old and can't stand the hardship anymore.
Don't do this again in the future. But, how are you doing in the county these days?"
Zhang Juexia stood up and refilled their teacups with water. He smiled and said, "Grandpa, do you and grandma want to go to the county town and live for a while?"
"We are old and don't want to be bothered anymore."
Wang Guilan glared at Ye Jishun, feeling that he had interrupted her. "Could you please stop talking? Bei Xiu hasn't answered what I just said yet."
Ye Beixiu knew that he couldn't get through this hurdle, as he knew his grandmother's temper.
He quickly acted like a good boy and knelt down beside Wang Guilan. "Grandma, I was really wrong. From now on, I will never hide anything from you."
Ye Beixiu's behavior reminded Wang Guilan of his childhood. If he did something wrong, he would kneel down in front of her obediently and would not dare to stand up until she smiled.
She sighed in her heart. The child lost his father when he was young. Although he has a mother by his side, it is worse than having no mother. He just feels upset every day.
Nowadays, it’s good enough to grow up like this.
I’m afraid the Ye family will still have to rely on him to bring honor to the family in the future!
When Wang Guilan wanted to reach out to help him up, Ye Beixiu's right hand tightly covered his left arm. His brows were wrinkled in pain, and his body involuntarily tilted to the left.
