Chapter 289 Shocking the Entire Audience



Su Xinyi suddenly interjected, "I'm afraid He Tao isn't here to ask for money. You said He Yongshou told He Tao about this last night. I guess He Yongshou felt that this matter couldn't be kept secret any longer, so he decided to expose it and bring Ye Dongnan back to Hejia Village."

"That makes sense." Everyone agreed with this statement; otherwise, it wouldn't make sense why He Tao wouldn't accept the money.

Seeing that everyone agreed, Su Xinyi became bolder and continued to speculate: "Since Ye Dongnan is going to be taken back, Jiang Enhua will definitely go with him. You said before that He Yongshou's ancestors were big landowners, and his family must be rich. Even now, they are still hiding money. So He Tao must know about this and is afraid that Ye Dongnan will go back and take away the family property."

hiss!

After this analysis, everyone gasped in shock.

Wu Di frowned and said, "He Tao does have some brains. He gave Ye Dongnan a hard time before even taking him back."

"Hmm, very good, but there's one thing you've said wrong."

Ye Beiping gave Su Xinyi an approving look and then pointed out her mistake: "He Tao is not smart, he's stupid. If he had just rebelled against his father, Ye Dongnan might not have been able to take him back. Now that things have escalated so much, Ye Dongnan has no choice but to go. There is no way for him and his mother to survive in Pingba Village."

"Putting Ye Sheng aside, just think about how much Chen Xiang and the others have doted on Ye Dongnan since he was a child. Now that they know Ye Dongnan isn't their grandson, the scene is just... tsk tsk tsk."

As he spoke, he shook his head and clicked his tongue.

After hearing this, everyone realized what was going on.

That's right. If He Tao hadn't made a big scene today, Ye Dongnan might not have been able to return to Hejia Village.

Hou Baolin then scoffed, "A scoundrel is still a scoundrel. He has no brains and all he knows is how to fight."

"Hahaha." Everyone laughed.

I don't know whether to laugh at Hou Baolin for being right, or for Hou Baolin for actually saying such a thing.

Because of his indifferent nature, Ye Beiping didn't discuss the matter much, and decided not to interfere with Chen Xiang and the others' subsequent actions.

There's no point in thinking about it too much before it happens.

They didn't go to watch the play after the fight; instead, they stayed and had lunch.

Ye Beiping shared his thoughts with everyone: "Tomorrow I plan to visit my maternal grandfather's house in Taoping Village for the New Year, the day after tomorrow I'll stay at home for a day, and the day after that I'll go to Hangzhou."

"So fast?" Ye Xiaoxin was surprised.

Hou Baolin and Wu Di were also slightly surprised, exchanging glances and unsure how to respond.

We had planned to go to Hangzhou on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, but I didn't expect to have to go so early.

Ye Beiping explained, "I'm going to Hangzhou to pay my respects to my father-in-law for the New Year, not to send you all to work. Why are you all looking so gloomy?"

"I see." Hou Baolin and Wu Di exchanged a simple smile.

Tao Qiuyan nodded slightly: "Indeed, it's your first year of marriage, so you should go and pay your respects to your father-in-law. I'll make the preparations the day after tomorrow."

They are discussing something here.

Wu Guangfa and Hou Yongping arrived at the door, and when they saw Hou Baolin and Wu Di, the two elderly fathers looked very unhappy.

"Uncle Wu, Uncle Hou, what brings you here?" Ye Beiping immediately stood up and prepared to bring stools for the two of them.

In the dead of winter, when guests come over, they'll definitely gather around the brazier to chat, eat melon seeds, and drink tea.

Wu Guangfa and Hou Yongping didn't say much and sat down without a thud.

Wu Guangfa was the first to speak. He glared at Wu Di and said with some grievance, "Beiping, look at the mess this has made. We're dealing with all this trouble at the end of the year."

Forehead......

His aggrieved expression stunned everyone.

Hou Yongping then added with a slight complaint, "Yes, Beiping, you guys, you start causing trouble as soon as you get back, you never stop."

Ye Beiping could only scratch his head helplessly.

There was no other way; if they didn't cause trouble, how could they let Ye Sheng's family have an easy time?

But everything was fine soon enough, and he told him that he was leaving.

Wu Guangfa and Hou Yongping were just as surprised as Hou Baolin and Wu Di had been before.

"What? We're going back to Hangzhou so soon?"

"Wasn't it supposed to be the seventh day?"

...

Ye Beiping explained why he was going to Hangzhou, and mentioned that Hou Baolin and Wu Di would be returning on the seventh day of the lunar new year.

He also asked, "Uncle Wu, Uncle Hou, my mother and sister are not going to Hangzhou for the time being. We hope you can take good care of them while they are in the village."

"What are you saying?" Tao Qiuyan was bringing two cups of tea to Hou Yongping and Wu Guangfa when she rolled her eyes at Ye Beiping with annoyance: "Your sister and I are so old, we don't need anyone to take care of us."

"Yes, yes, yes," Ye Beiping could only reply sheepishly.

They didn't say anything else.
