Ye Zhiguo sent Shen Yanhong to the kitchen to cook, and went upstairs to find his eldest daughter, Ye Lan. He saw Ye Lan wearing a long-sleeved shirt with the wind on the lowest setting, and he frowned slightly, but quickly relaxed.
"Lan'er, did you go to the Lu family today?"
“They went, and Qingqing went too.” Ye Lan nodded. “Dad, Qingqing didn’t mention breaking off the engagement. She was acting strange today.”
Ye Zhiguo frowned. "What's going on? Wasn't Qingqing and Lu Qingquan getting along really well? Why is she refusing to break off the engagement?"
He didn't have much interaction with Lu Mo, and he was quite intimidated by Lu Mo, just like when he was in the army and saw his company commander. Lu Qingquan was easier to control.
Therefore, Ye Zhiguo was happy to see Ye Qingqing and Lu Qingquan's relationship come to fruition. Xu Yali, that bitch, was too scheming; she actually stipulated in her will that Ye Qingqing must be twenty years old before her property could be transferred to her husband or children.
He knew that Xu Yali was on guard against him!
Hmph, he still has a way, as long as he doesn't let Ye Qingqing marry Lu Mo!
The wealth he painstakingly acquired will never be given to Ye Qingqing and Lu Mo!
"I don't know. Qingqing acted like she was possessed today. She beat Xiaohua half to death and even spoke ill of me at the Lu family's house. Even Grandpa Lu has a problem with me." Ye Lan's eyes reddened.
Ye Zhiguo also found it strange. Ye Qingqing and Ye Lan had a good relationship before, though not particularly close. Ye Qingqing was also willing to take Ye Lan to the Lu family to play. What happened this time?
Most importantly, if Ye Qingqing doesn't break off the engagement with Lu Mo, how will he get the property?
"Did you upset Qingqing?" Ye Zhiguo asked in a deep voice.
Ye Qingqing is simple-minded and has a clear sense of right and wrong. She will be loyal to those who treat her well, but she will also turn her back on those who offend her. Such people are the easiest to deal with.
Ye Lan looked a little uneasy, and Ye Zhiguo could tell at a glance that something was wrong. He snorted softly. Ye Lan didn't dare to hide anything and told him about Lu Qingquan's phone call at noon.
"Qingqing was taking a nap at the time, so I didn't wake her up. I relayed what Brother Qingquan said to Qingqing, and she was a little upset."
Ye Zhiguo gave his eldest daughter a deep look and said unhappily, "From now on, you should try to keep your distance from Lu Qingquan and not make Qingqing unhappy."
Ye Lan's little scheme couldn't be hidden from Ye Zhiguo at all. If it weren't for the property, he would be happy for Ye Lan to marry Lu Qingquan, but now property was the most important thing, and everything else was put aside.
"Yes... I understand."
Ye Lan felt bitter inside, but she dared not disobey Ye Zhiguo and had no choice but to agree. In her heart, she hated Ye Qingqing even more.
She had to give in to this bitch in everything. Even though she knew her father had ulterior motives, Ye Lan still felt resentful. She just hoped that Ye Zhiguo would get his hands on the property quickly so that she would no longer have to fawn over that idiot Ye Qingqing.
The Ye family's dinner was as lavish as ever: sweet and sour pork ribs, stir-fried bitter melon with eggs, loofah soup, stir-fried celery with dried tofu, water spinach with garlic, and even a plate of large prawns, only seven or eight in number, which Shen Yanhong had secretly taken from the cafeteria.
All the canteen staff do this, so everyone gets a share of the good food. That's why the canteen is a lucrative job, and many family members are desperate to get in.
"The shrimp is delicious..." Ye Hua's eyes lit up when he saw the shrimp, and he reached out to grab them.
Another reason Ye Qingqing disliked Ye Hua was that this brat was particularly domineering, especially at the dinner table. Any dish he liked had to be placed in front of him, and he would eat it all by himself, showing absolutely no manners.
