Chapter 197 Yellow Cloth



Chapter 197 Yellow Cloth

Several members of the Ye family gathered together and walked through the carved hallway.

Entering the foyer, you will see a rockery gate about three or four meters wide. The bottom of the rockery is sunken, and several fat goldfish are swimming in the clear spring water.

Zhao Zhaodi looked at the big fat fish in the water.

He swallowed silently and thought to himself, a pot of stewed fish will definitely be enough for the whole family. There are no such fat fish in Xiahe Village.

Beyond the rockery, you can see the entire villa's living room.

The Ye family members stood still, not daring to move forward.

He stared at the palace with dull eyes.

The ceiling was higher than two stories, and there were several huge jewel chandeliers hanging on it. You couldn't see where the bulbs were, but the whole thing was shining.

The large windows extended from the ground to the roof, and the blue velvet curtains also hung from the roof to the ground, with a layer of light blue gauze and a layer of white gauze mixed with silver thread behind.

There are three layers of curtains hanging on one window!

The living room has four large floor-to-ceiling windows.

I'm afraid that even if all the cloth in the Qing County Supply and Marketing Cooperative were added together, it wouldn't be enough to hang curtains in this room!

There is a set of Western-style sofas in the center of the living room, a set of mahogany furniture in the small living room on the west side, and a set of rattan chairs on the east side.

There are countless ornaments and flower stands.

Even so, the room is still very spacious and can easily accommodate twenty or thirty people.

Even the tiles on the floor reflect a luxurious glow.

"Grandpa, grandma, are you tired?"

"Would you like to rest first or eat first?"

Ye Lin took off his cashmere coat and handed it to the maid Xiaoyue.

I wanted to ask the Ye family if they were eating or sleeping, but I found that there was no one around.

When I looked back, they were all blocking the door like door gods.

"Oh, I'm not hungry, I'm still full."

"Lin, where is the kang at home? Your grandma and I need to rest for a while."

Old Man Ye came to his senses after being called.

They just had a lot of Western food on the plane.

It was my first time eating there, and everything looked new: steak, salad, waffles, ice cream, I tried almost everything on the plane.

A group of people helped themselves down the plane with their bellies.

Now I can't even eat it even if you pay me.

"Okay, let's go back to the room and rest. Grandpa and grandma, follow me."

"Oh, this living room is really stylish."

The room of the old couple of the Ye family is located at the back of the first floor near the small garden. There is a lot of greenery and good lighting. The interior is also in the Chinese style designed by Ye Errong himself during his lifetime.

"Grandpa and grandma, please take a look and see if there's anything missing. I'll ask Xiaoyue and the others to prepare it."

This house is like a palace, what could be missing?

Old man Ye waved his hands repeatedly, telling his grandson to stop making trouble.

"There's nothing missing. This house is as good as the one the emperor lives in. I wouldn't even dare to dream of it."

"Compared to this room, the room back home looks like a pigsty. I really wronged you the past two days. How could you sleep on that earthen kang?"

Old Man Ye never felt that Ye Lin had been wronged in his hometown before.

Until today when I came to Hong Kong,

He then realized that his grandson had been living with them in Xiahe Village, and he had been deprived of food, sleep, and even the air he breathed.

The winter in Hong Kong is not cold at all, unlike Xiahe Village where it is windy and snowy all day long. My grandson's hands are frozen red when he comes back after going out.

Ye Lin saw his grandfather lowering his head, looking somewhat lost.

I thought that his grandfather might have felt a little disappointed after seeing the prosperity of Hong Kong and felt that he was being treated unfairly.

In fact, during the time Ye Lin returned to Xiahe Village, he could feel that everyone in the family was doing their best to treat him well, even Ye Ling and Wen Hai were giving in to him.

He lived a happy life in Xiahe Village, which was a warmth that the prosperity of Hong Kong could not bring.

Ye Lin went forward and hugged Old Man Ye's arm, then bent down and leaned his head against Grandpa, rubbing it twice.

"Grandpa, what are you talking about? I eat well and sleep well in my hometown. How can I be wronged? I have even gained a lot of weight recently."

"I'm starting to miss the kang in the west room. It's so comfortable to sleep on."

Old man Ye was a little overwhelmed by his grandson's sudden affection.

Hearing that his grandson was coaxing him, Old Man Ye smiled with relief and finally came to terms with it.

His grandson was sensible, so he shouldn't make the child unhappy anymore.

"You kid, can the doghouse in our hometown be as comfortable as the royal palace in Hong Kong?"

"Okay, you're tired after a day, your grandma and I will take a nap, you go out and find a place to sleep."

Ye Lin joked with Old Man Ye again.

Only after coaxing Old Man Ye so much that he was overjoyed did he get up and leave.

After sending his grandson out, Old Man Ye saw his wife sitting on the sofa in a daze, so he went over and told her to go to bed and rest for a while.

"Old woman, why don't you just lie down on the bed and stare blankly?"

Just now, when Ye Lin was here, Old Lady Ye was afraid that the child would be sad, so she did not dare to speak. Now that Ye Lin was gone, she spoke in a hoarse voice,

"Old man, do you still remember that piece of yellow cloth?"

"What cloth?"

"Get out of here!"

A crutch was thrown towards Old Man Ye, who dodged it in panic.

Not knowing what was wrong with his wife, Old Man Ye stood there for a while but couldn't figure it out. He decided to go to bed.

She is already seventy years old, but still has a bad temper. It is really hard to coax an old lady.

Old Mrs. Ye stared at the goose yellow quilt on the bed and the beige curtains by the window.

My heart ached again as I missed my son, and tears silently rolled down my eyes.

Old Mrs. Ye turned her back and wiped her face with her sleeve.

The old man doesn't remember.

Her waiter remembers it.

When Old Lady Ye got married, her parents gave her a piece of yellow cloth as compensation, which was a very prestigious dowry at that time.

Many brides in the village don’t even have a decent wedding dress, and they just get married wearing a cotton jacket and a red flower.

She had a red wedding dress and various dowries from her parents' home. She married into the Ye family in great style. Among them, she liked the yellow cloth the most.

She was reluctant to use any of it until she gave birth to her second child.

Later, due to war and famine, the family could not make ends meet, so she asked the old man to exchange the cloth for ten kilograms of grain.

After Old Man Ye left with the cloth, she felt sad and hid in the woodshed crying.

The waiter was only seven or eight years old at that time and didn't know anything. He coaxed her by saying that when she grew up, she would hang a room full of yellow cloth for her mother.

Old Mrs. Ye just thought the child was trying to cheer her up and didn't take it to heart.

When she saw the room prepared by the waiter for her today, Grandma Ye realized that her son had never forgotten the cloth.

Over the years, the old man forgot about it, and she herself forgot about it too.

Only her waiter didn't forget.

After Ye Lin came out of his grandparents' room, he was worried that if something happened to them, they wouldn't be able to find anyone outside the room, so he asked Xiaoyue to call a bodyguard to guard the door.

"By the way, have my aunt and the others chosen their rooms?"

Xiaoyue just turned around and fell back again, with an unnatural expression.

"Master, why don't you go and take a look? The eldest lady and the others are playing with the elevator."

Playing elevator?

Ye Lin remembered his aunt's concern about the elevator, so he just ignored it and replaced it with a new one if it broke.

I asked again worriedly,

"Is anyone following them?"

"Yes, Ah Hui and Fang Bo are with us."

"Okay, let them play if they want to, you go ahead and do your work."

Ye Lin was worried about Aunt Rebecca. After talking to Xiaoyue, he ran up the stairs from the back door in two steps.

I plan to go back to my room and call Italy.
