Chapter 248 Traveling back to the Republic of China 3 from the modern times
After leaving Ye Heqi's room, Yao Rong went to the kitchen first and asked the maid to cook a bowl of sweet soup and send it to Ye Heqi two hours later.
It was just the right time to call Ye Heqi to get up.
The maid replied, "Okay, madam."
Yao Rong thought about it, and reminded again, "Add more sugar."
Sugar is a rare commodity these days, but with the financial resources of the Ye family, there will be no shortage of expenses in this regard.
After arranging this matter, Yao Rong returned to her own room.
Her room is much more spacious and brighter than Ye Heqi's.
Because this is her and Ye Fuguang's wedding room.
But after so many years, this wedding room only has traces of her living alone. Ye Fuguang did not live with her when he returned to the Ye Mansion.
As soon as Yao Rong entered the house, she closed the doors and windows, sat in front of the dressing table and looked at herself in the bronze mirror.
She is 32 years old this year.
Even without makeup or any dressing, she looks good.
But her clothes are too old-fashioned, and there is a sense of depression and decadence, which makes her look several years older than her actual age.
"I finally know why Heqi must take the original body away from the Ye Mansion."
The system asked: [Why?]
"Because she knows that the original body is not happy in the Ye Mansion."
How old Ye Heqi is, how many years the original body has withered in this small backyard.
Except for Ye Heqi, no one will care about the joys and sorrows of the original body.
[But she failed. 】
"Yes, she failed."
"She knew she couldn't take the original body out of the Ye Mansion in an upright way, so the second time, she asked the original body if she was willing to run away with her secretly."
[The original body's reaction disappointed her, right? That's why she finally ran away from the Ye Mansion alone. ]
Yao Rong's voice was a little sighing.
"Rather than being disappointed, it's better to say that she realized something."
"She traveled through time from the future, so she knows what kind of life is free and happy. The original body didn't know that the original body had already adapted to everything in this era and was accustomed to life in the Ye Mansion."
"The Ye Mansion is a prison, but it is also an exquisite prison. If a woman like the original body who has no ability to make money and not much social survival ability escapes from the Ye Mansion, she will have a miserable life."
"At that time, Ye Heqi couldn't even guarantee her own life after escaping from the Ye Mansion, so how could she take the original body away?"
In the day-to-day withering, some people have completely adapted to the life of being a bird in a cage.
But some people can't adapt, even if they break their wings and bleed, they still want to escape from the cage.
The system was a little confused, it simply asked: [Have you thought about what to do next? ]
Yao Rong looked at himself in the mirror again: "Of course I have thought about it."
[What? ]
Yao Rong solemnly announced: "I plan to eat the little one."
[What! ? ? ]
Wait, it can't have heard it wrong.
"Don't worry, you are not hallucinating. What I just said is to eat the little one."
The system was terrified: [No, how can you let me rest assured? ? ? ]
Although it and the host repeatedly blocked the main system in the last world.
Although it and the host violated the regulations of the Space-Time Administration many times in the last world.
Although in the last world, its host used special props that shouldn't be used...
well, that doesn't matter anymore. As long as the mistakes are not caught by the Space-Time Administration, it's not a big problem. Anyway, it
was a surprise, and in the end, its host completed the task with 100% completion. The points obtained at the settlement made countless taskers look at it sideways.
In this world now, why did its host suddenly change his style?
But even if the style suddenly changes, Ye Heqi is just a fourteen-year-old girl!
Is it really okay to talk about reading novels so confidently! ?
"Let's discuss this matter later. Now I have more important things to do."
[What's the matter? ]
As soon as the system finished speaking, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Wang's mother's voice came into the house: "Madam, the old lady wants you to go to the main hall."
Yao Rong stood up and kicked over a stool on the side as she walked out.
Wang's mother was eavesdropping on the noise in the house with her ears close to her chest. She was startled by the door suddenly opening. When she saw Yao Rong's calm and numb expression, Wang's mother was even more shocked: "Madam, are you...are you okay?"
Yao Rong slowly raised her head and looked at Wang's mother, her tone sounded a little creepy: "What can be wrong with me?"
"What dare I do wrong?"
"I'm still alive, and my daughter has been treated like this. If something happens to me, will there be a place for my daughter in this Ye Mansion?"
"Normally I don't argue or say anything, because I know I'm an outsider in the Ye family, but my daughter's last name is Ye. If I don't argue, will Ye Fuguang force me and my daughter to death before he gives up? Does he really want me and my daughter to give way to Wen Cui and Ye Yaozu?"
Yao Rong not only did not lower his voice, but also deliberately raised the volume to ensure that all the servants in the courtyard could hear it.
After the performance, Yao Rong let Wang Ma lead the way and take her to the main hall.
When Yao Rong arrived at the main hall, as expected, Ye Fuguang was there.
He was dressed in a black suit and looked gentle and refined. There was no anger on his face, but when his eyes fell on Yao Rong, there was no emotion, as if the wife in front of him who gave birth to a daughter for him was just a stranger.
Yao Rong's eyes passed over Ye Fuguang and looked at Old Madam Ye: "Old Madam, you called me here, is there something you want to tell me?"
Old Madam Ye snorted, and said without knowing whether she was happy or angry: "Don't you know why I called you here? How do you act as a mother? How do you usually discipline your daughter?
If the original body heard Old Lady Ye say this, he would have panicked and started to reflect whether he had done something wrong to anger Old Lady Ye.
But Yao Rong didn't buy it.
"I really don't understand what happened. I only know that Ye Fuguang hadn't been home for a long time, and when he suddenly returned home, he rushed into Heqi's room, scolded Heqi, and messed up her room."
"The old lady should not have been to Heqi's room. As a father, he broke into his daughter's room and lost his temper. This is the first time I have seen it in my life."
"Since the old lady asked me how I was a mother, then I also have a question to ask Ye Fuguang, how do you be a father."
Old Lady Ye frowned, very dissatisfied with Yao Rong's attitude.
Ye Fuguang paused while drinking tea, as he did not expect the topic to suddenly turn to him.
He slammed the teacup back onto the table, and the porcelain cup made a crisp collision sound with the wooden table.
"She is a girl, and she doesn't want to study hard every day, and she doesn't obey her great-grandmother's discipline. If it weren't for her second mother persuading me to come back and take care of her, I would not bother to care about this matter at all."
No wonder Ye Fuguang was so angry after receiving the letter that he rushed back to the Ye Mansion. It turned out that someone was fanning the flames behind the scenes.
Yao Rong sneered in his heart, and finally figured out the cause and effect of the matter.
Some time ago, Ye Heqi beat Ye Yaozu, and Wen Cui, as a mother, was avenging her son.
"Don't worry, no matter how bad my daughter is at school, she would never do such a thing as hooking up with a married man."
"Especially, I was still pregnant at the time."
Ye Fuguang jumped up immediately.
Yao Rong spoke faster and interrupted Ye Fuguang: "Don't be so quick to refute me. I just want to ask you if this is the case. My child hasn't been born yet, but you and Wen Cui can't wait to come to my house. If it weren't for the old man protecting me, would you never have let my daughter be born?"
Old Madam Ye's face became uglier.
But it's not easy for her, as an elder, to interrupt the feelings of the younger generations. And when it comes to dealing with Wen Cui's affairs, Old Madam Ye is indeed unreasonable.
Ye Fuguang became even more angry.
He and Wen Cui have always claimed to be true love.
Their pure and flawless love is a little imperfect because of Yao Rong and Ye Heqi in the middle.
But he claims to be a decent man and can't do the same as Yao Rong, so he was a little speechless for a while.
"I know what you want to say. You want to emphasize that you are in true love. Who you love is none of my business, but if you dare to hurt my daughter again, believe it or not, I will risk my life to make you, Wen Cui and that little bastard Ye Yaozu completely ruined."
No matter how angry Mrs. Ye was, she had to step out and smooth things over after hearing this: "Okay, what are you talking about. We are all family."
Yao Rong turned her face away to prevent Mrs. Ye and Ye Fuguang from seeing the sneer on her face.
"Madam, if he treated Heqi and I as family, he wouldn't treat us like this."
"He can come to me for anything, but he shouldn't go to Heqi. Heqi has never enjoyed his father's love, but he has never been spared from his father's scolding and blame." "
In the future, you must leave this Ye family to Ye Yaozu. Heqi can neither get the Ye family's property nor her father's love, so after hearing that Ye Yaozu could go to the new school, she wanted to fight for it so that she could have the same treatment as Ye Yaozu. Is she wrong?"
It was the first time that Madam Ye saw Yao Rong so eloquent and good at argument.
It seems that a mother is really strong.
Ye Fuguang always felt that there was something wrong with what Yao Rong said. After thinking for a while, Ye Fuguang said, "I took Yaozu back to my hometown some time ago. How come you forgot that she beat Yaozu?" Yao
Rong asked, "Then do you know why she beat Ye Yaozu?"
Ye Fuguang: "Why?"
It turned out that Ye Heqi was sentenced to death without even investigating the cause of the incident.
Yao Rong: "Ye Yaozu scolded Heqi and me in front of Heqi. How about I repeat how he scolded me?"
Ye Fuguang: "..."
Yao Rong: "He scolded me for his mother, and my daughter beat him for me. I think this is fair."
"Of course, to someone as biased as you, it must be very unfair. So you only punished Heqi for that matter. Not only did you make her kneel in the ancestral hall for so long, but you also forced her to learn what she disliked the most." Old Madam Ye's
face twitched: Is this scolding Ye Fuguang for being biased? This is clearly scolding her for being biased.
Because it was she who punished Ye Heqi to kneel in the ancestral hall and forced Ye Heqi to learn "Nu Yi".
If no one had pointed this out, it would have passed without being discussed, but since Yao Rong had said it so bluntly, Old Lady Ye would have to be careful not to be too obvious in the future.
However, Old Lady Ye had been in charge for a long time, and even though she knew she was at fault in this matter, she was still worried that Yao Rong, a junior, had repeatedly refused to give her face.
Fortunately, the next moment, Yao Rong gave Old Madam Ye a step: "Of course, I can understand your thoughts, old madam. You think that the girls of our Ye family do not need to go to new-style schools to learn those messy things."
Seeing this, Old Madam Ye's voice softened: "It's good that you understand. You go and persuade that child to stop being stubborn. I am her great-grandmother, how can I hurt her?"
Yao Rong sighed: "When I went to deliver dumplings to Heqi just now, she had been locking herself in the room. She didn't complain to me, but I know she was heartbroken."
After these words came out, half of Ye Fuguang's anger turned into embarrassment: "What do you want? Let me make it clear, going to a new-style school is impossible."
Old Madam Ye finally reacted.
Originally, she called Yao Rong to teach her a lesson, but Yao Rong took the initiative and asked for good advice.
Yao Rong was not afraid that Old Lady Ye would see her purpose. She glanced at Ye Fuguang and said calmly, "Heqi likes reading. She can't go to school outside, but she can always read some newspapers at home."
"You are the deputy editor-in-chief of the newspaper. I don't ask you to subscribe to any new newspapers for her, but you can always bring back those discarded old newspapers for Heqi."
Ye Fuguang said awkwardly, "Okay, I will sort out those old newspapers and ask someone to send them home. I will also subscribe to a few weekly newspapers for Heqi."
Madam Ye frowned and said earnestly, "Heqi hasn't even finished reading a copy of "Nu Yi", why give her so many newspapers to read."
Yao Rong pursed her lips and whispered, "Madam, how about this, you give me three months, and I will persuade Heqi in these three months."
"You also know how stubborn she is. If she gets sick again and has a high fever for several days and nights, I'll just go with her."
"If I still can't teach Heqi well after three months, I won't care about her affairs in the future. What do you think?"
Old Madam Ye held her cane and thought for a moment, and finally followed Yao Rong's words and hummed: "I hope you can really teach her well this time, otherwise you will delay her life, and she will blame you in the future."
After walking out of the main hall, the sadness on Yao Rong's face disappeared instantly.
The goal has been achieved, and there is no need to act again.
The system is amazed: [You are buying yourself and Ye Heqi a three-month buffer period? 】
Yao Rong nodded.
She just entered this world today.
Before she understands the general situation of this world and arranges her and Ye Heqi's retreat, she can't take Ye Heqi away from the Ye family.
Since she was going to stay in the Ye family for a while, of course she had to create a relatively comfortable environment for herself and Ye Heqi. It
was also a good opportunity to scold Ye Fuguang and vent the anger in her heart.
After this, at least for the next period of time, she didn't have to worry about Ye Fuguang hating her, nor did she have to worry about Old Madam Ye forcing Ye Heqi to do things she didn't like.
***
On the other side.
After eating the dumplings, Ye Heqi lay on the bed. She thought she wouldn't be able to sleep, but she fell asleep leaning against the pillow.
In the end, she was awakened by the knock on the door by the maid.
Looking at the sweet soup brought in by the maid, Ye Heqi smiled again, and her originally heavy heart became much lighter.
"My stomach is still full."
She complained with a little bit of truth.
It sounded more like a girl's coquettish complaint.
The maid said, "Madam asked me to prepare a small amount, Miss, just have some to sweeten your mouth."
Looking at the manuscripts scattered on the ground, the maid asked if they needed to be cleaned up.
Ye Heqi waved her hands and said, "No, you can go out."
She stirred the soup in the bowl with a spoon, and felt that today's sweet soup was sweeter than usual.
After finishing the last spoonful of sweet soup, Ye Heqi squatted down and began to pick up the manuscripts on the ground.
In order to convince Ye Fuguang to agree to let Ye Fuguang go to school outside, Ye Heqi worked late into the night these days and rushed out a lot of articles.
But Ye Fuguang didn't even read what she wrote carefully. After taking it, he put it on the table casually. Because he didn't put it down steadily, all the manuscripts fell to the ground.
Ye Heqi was about to throw the manuscripts into the wastebasket when he heard Yao Rong's voice coming from the door.
"Heqi, what are you doing?"
Ye Heqi paused, turned around and called out "Mom".
"I'm coming in." Yao Rong said this as she walked into the room. Her eyes fell on the manuscript in Ye Heqi's hand and asked curiously, "What is this?"
Ye Heqi pursed his lips and said, "It's something I wrote randomly."
"Can I take a look?"
Ye Heqi handed the manuscript over.
Yao Rong didn't read the content carefully, but just flipped through it from the beginning and asked in surprise, "Did you write all of this?"
Ye Heqi nodded.
"Heqi, you're awesome." Yao Rong said.
Ye Heqi smiled and said, "Mom, you didn't read it carefully."
Yao Rong said, "Mom doesn't understand it either. In my opinion, you are already very impressive because you can read and write. There is a word, right, a talented girl, aren't you the little talented girl mentioned in operas?"
When the original body was five years old, something happened in her family, and she never went to school.
Old Master Ye treated her well, but he never thought of hiring someone to teach her to read and write. The few words that the original body could write were all learned from Ye Heqi.
Ye Heqi said, "Many people can write articles of this level. I was just about to throw it away."
Yao Rong clenched the manuscript in his hand: "Why throw it away? You spent so much time writing it. It would be a pity to throw it away."
Ye Heqi lowered his eyes: "It's not well written."
"This is your first time writing an article." Yao Rong looked around, trying to find a box to put it in. "I have to keep them well. When you write a lot of great articles in the future, I will take them out and show them to you."
Seeing that Ye Heqi lowered his head and did not respond, Yao Rong touched Ye Heqi's braid again: "By the way, mother wants to tell you a good news, a very good news, and an especially good news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
Ye Heqi finally raised his head.
At such a bad time, there can be three good news?
Looking at Yao Rong's expectant eyes, Ye Heqi did not lose interest and said cautiously: "Then I want to hear the good news first."
"The good news is that mother just plucked up the courage and scolded both the old lady and Ye Fuguang."
Ye Heqi was surprised: "What about the good news?"
"The very good news is that Ye Fuguang will send you a lot of newspapers. There will be old newspapers and new newspapers."
"What about the especially good news?"
"The especially good news is that the old lady promised me that she will not interfere in your affairs in the next three months. You can do what you want to do with peace of mind."
Although he didn't know how Yao Rong did it, Ye Heqi undoubtedly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
But compared to the three-month buffer period, Ye Heqi was more concerned about those old newspapers: "Will Ye Fuguang really deliver newspapers to me?"
"He promised. If he doesn't, I will make trouble."
Ye Heqi covered his mouth and laughed, saying, "Then I will go with my mother."
Seeing this scene, Yao Rong knelt down and raised his head to stare at Ye Heqi: "In this matter, it is Ye Fuguang who is in the wrong. He did a lot of things wrong. But Heqi, you also did something wrong."
Ye The smile on He Qi's face froze, he pursed his lips and asked Yao Rong: "Does Mom also think that what I did was wrong and that I shouldn't quarrel with Ye Fuguang?"
"Of course not." Yao Rong immediately shook his head, with a hint of grievance and sadness on his face, "I think what you did wrong is, before you do this, why didn't you tell me first."
Ye He Qiu opened his eyes wide in surprise.
Yao Rong continued, "I know that you have always blamed Ye Fuguang in your heart. You have never called him dad in private all these years. But when you encountered difficulties that you couldn't solve, you wrote to him for help. , but you didn't think of telling me, so I was shocked when I heard the servant say that you and Ye Fuguang had a big fight this afternoon. "
Ye Heqi opened his mouth and explained quickly: "Because I Knowing this, you can't make the decision. After I tell you, it will only make you more worried about me, and it won't have any other effect. "
Yao Rong said slowly: "Heqi, you will dislike me for not "No, do you think I can't help you?"
Ye Heqi shook her head frantically, afraid that Yao Rong would not believe her, so she said, "Mother, why do you think so?"
"You won't abandon me, so why do you think I won't be willing to share your feelings? I can't help you, but I can accompany you." Yao Rong looked at Ye Heqi and said seriously. "Family members never think that each other's feelings are a burden or a burden."
In the original plot, Ye Heqi took too many things on herself.
She is obviously a daughter and the original body is the mother, but Ye Heqi always She felt that as a daughter, she should save her mother.
This sense of mission came from her identity as a time traveler, and also had a lot to do with Ye Heqi's personality.
She always liked to keep things in her heart and never told others about them. The original body revealed her pain. So when she was on the verge of collapse and mustered up her last bit of courage to ask the original body if she was willing to escape from the Ye family with her, the original
body actually didn't know what had happened.
Anhao suddenly came to the Ye family one day and said she wanted to escape. I subconsciously thought it was my daughter's angry words.
I didn't react, it was my daughter asking for help.
——This misunderstanding caused by lack of effective communication , can be avoided through communication.
So this time, Yao Rong will not let Ye Heqi keep everything in his heart.
"Hesu, I am your mother. You have been a strong child since you were young. Even if I am not as good as you, I am still not bad as your mother."
"I have not read much and I don't know any great principles, but you see , after you taught me to read, I could recognize those words. "
"You have to tell me your feelings, so that I can know what you are thinking."
"You have to break down those great principles and tell me, so that I can know what is going on. is right, and nothing is wrong."
Yao Rong put his hand on Ye Heqi's shoulder, exerted a little force, made Ye Heqi lower his head, and rested his forehead against Ye Heqi's forehead.
The rare intimacy between mother and daughter made Ye Heqi feel a little uncomfortable, but she was reluctant to push him away. In the midst of her confusion, she only heard Yao Rong continue to say in her ear: "No one has ever been willing to take the time to teach me anything. things."
"Ye Fuguang despised me for not knowing anything and for not having any common topics with him, but why didn't he think about the fact that I had nowhere to learn."
"Am I unwilling to make progress? Am I willing to keep repeating the same mistakes over and over again? I have been rejected by Ye Fuguang again and again. But if no one teaches me, how can I improve and change myself? "
This is also the original body's true thought.
Ye Fuguang looked down on her and looked down on her. It's not that she doesn't have low self-esteem, but she also It's not that I'm not angry,
but there's no way out for this kind of inferiority and anger.
Ye Heqi asked, "Mom, do you want to learn these things?"
Yao Rong looked directly at Ye Heqi, trying to let Ye Heqi see the determination in her eyes: "Of course I do."
Ye Heqi vaguely understood where she was wrong. There is no doubt that
she loves her mother.
She is the person who wants her mother to be happy the most in this world.
So after she recovered her past life memory, she made up her mind to change the situation between her and her mother. In her future life plan, her mother has always been there.
But maybe it comes from the prejudice of later generations, or maybe it's arrogance, she always feels that her mother can't understand her thinking and can't agree with her values.
So she wants to change She didn't expect her mother to understand her actions,
and she didn't even think about changing her mother's mind.
"...I was definitely wrong about this." Ye Heqi admitted his mistake to Yao Rong, "I shouldn't have kept it from you all the time. I always felt that you didn't understand, and you couldn't understand me enough."
Yao Rong let go of Ye Heqi: "If you don't tell me, I certainly won't understand."
Ye Heqi smiled and promised: "Then if I want to do anything in the future, I will definitely communicate with my mother in advance. I can't make my mother understand my thoughts and support my pursuit. "
