After the groom left, Ye Weiwei and Long Lan appeared a while later. They were very considerate and didn't tease the bride about their affair, which made Gu Qingqing feel much more at ease.
After everyone finished the banquet and left, the Huo family helped clean up the tables and chairs and did all the washing and cleaning before going home.
Because Ye Huaijin cleverly got all the people who had originally been clamoring to make a ruckus in the bridal chamber drunk, no one dared to stay and cause trouble anymore.
Ye Weiwei said goodbye to her family and then prepared to leave with her three children.
Gu Qingqing, however, was very reluctant to let Ye Weiwei stay and repeatedly tried to persuade her to stay at home for a couple more days.
The main reason is that she and Ye Huaijin will have to return to their military units after their wedding, and they don't know when they will see each other again.
Ye Weiwei wasn't really that clueless. She smiled and said, "The two places aren't far apart, so it's very convenient to go back and forth. I'll go home to visit my second sister-in-law tomorrow."
Ye Weiwei glanced at her second brother, Ye Huaijin, and couldn't help but tease her, "I won't disturb your wedding night. Otherwise, I'm afraid my second brother will chase me down eighteen blocks!"
Gu Qingqing angrily slapped Ye Weiwei's arm.
Ye Huaijin coughed and said, "There's no way we'll chase you down. At most, we'll temporarily sever our sibling relationship and throw you outside the wall."
Ye Weiwei: "Hehe! I knew it would be like this, so I won't trouble Second Brother to do anything. I'll leave gracefully on my own."
Ye Huaijin rubbed her head helplessly: "Alright, you're getting more and more absurd. Go back and get some rest."
Ye Weiwei then waved her little paws and led the children away in Long Lan's car.
After finishing his meal, Mr. Qin left early because he had other commitments.
Long Lan drove directly to the Qin family's gate in the military compound.
Hearing the commotion, Chen Mengyi quickly came out to greet them.
Long Lan looked her over, and the three of them each carried a child into the house.
Aunt Hua made some tea for them. Chen Mengyi and Aunt Sun first took the three little ones to wash their hands, and then each of them made a cup of milk powder. The three little babies sat in a row on the sofa, each drinking milk powder from a bottle.
Long Lan watched this scene with great curiosity, "Do they eat like this every day?"
Ye Weiwei said, "He needs to drink milk powder as a snack at this time every day, and he will continue to drink it until he is at least two years old."
Long Lan clicked her tongue in amazement: "You've really taken good care of them. If outsiders knew, they'd definitely say a lot of sour things."
No wonder the three babies are all so pink and tender, and they smell so good with milk.
"It's not like we can't afford it. Even if you want to cultivate children's spirit of hard work and perseverance, you can't start from such a young age, can you? That's not cultivation, that's abuse."
Let others say what they want, anyway, their family isn't short of money. Not to mention her father-in-law, Grandpa Qin, his salary and subsidies amount to a little over two hundred yuan a month.
She and Huo Xiao each earn over a hundred yuan a month, plus Qin Xiao's mission allowances, and her research subsidies and rewards. They have more than enough to support three children, so there's no need for them to be stingy and mistreat themselves just to put on a show for outsiders.
Long Lan nodded in agreement, then looked at Chen Mengyi.
"This is the person you brought back from over there? Surname Chen? A member of the Chen family from Hong Kong?"
Chen Mengyi trembled involuntarily after hearing Long Lan's words, then hurriedly looked at Ye Weiwei. Seeing that Ye Weiwei's face showed no abnormality, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Ye Weiwei glanced at Long Lan, then said to Chen Mengyi, "Ignore her."
Chen Mengyi shook her head. "There's nothing I can't say. Yes, I'm from the Chen family of Hong Kong, the eldest son of the main branch of the Chen family."
She knew that even if Ye Weiwei didn't investigate or care about this information, the people around her, her close friends, would investigate it.
It was impossible to keep it a secret for long.
After all, Ye Weiwei comes from such a family.
However, she also believed that even if Ye Weiwei knew her identity, she would still protect her, as long as she was useful to Ye Weiwei.
Long Lan raised an eyebrow in surprise: "You are quite clever, but since you are the eldest daughter of the Chen family, are you really willing to stay in the mainland and work for Ye Weiwei?"
Chen Mengyi knew that she could only be honest at this moment: what was Long Lan's identity?
In terms of status, her background is even more powerful than Ye Weiwei's, and offending her will not do me any good.
“She saved me, and I agreed to work for her; that's my promise. Of course, I'm not without ulterior motives. I didn't know her true identity before; I only thought she was capable, not that she had a powerful background. I want to use her influence to get revenge someday, but don't worry, I won't harm her.”
Long Lan nodded: "You've passed. Stay on the mainland for now and see the local customs and culture. Although the mainland economy is not as prosperous as Hong Kong's, it's not necessarily worse. We have our own advantages. But you must always remember what you said today. If I ever find out that you've done something to betray Weiwei, I'll be the first to not let you off the hook."
Chen Mengyi quickly assured her, "No! I'm not ungrateful!"
She owed her life to Ye Weiwei, and even if she couldn't get revenge in the end, she still had to repay Ye Weiwei's life-saving grace.
She knew in her heart which was more important.
After giving Chen Mengyi a warning, Long Lan also asked her about the Chen family and Hong Kong. Chen Mengyi answered all her questions in great detail, and the two got along quite well.
After Long Lan finished asking her questions, Ye Weiwei told Long Lan helplessly after letting Chen Mengyi leave, "Her character is fine, and her abilities are indeed remarkable. She does things methodically and has helped me a lot."
Now she delegates many tasks directly to Chen Mengyi, who always manages to do them beautifully.
Long Lan sighed: "I'm not just worried about you. After all, these are people from the Chen family in Hong Kong. If they find out, it will eventually cause some trouble. It's good to give them a heads-up in advance."
Ye Weiwei also guessed that Chen Mengyi must have an extraordinary background, but she did not expect that she was the eldest daughter of the Chen family's direct line. Thinking of her experience, she could not help but sigh and at the same time valued Chen Mengyi even more.
This woman is destined for greatness.
Not every woman can recover so quickly after experiencing something like that.
After all, this era was still very conservative, even in Hong Kong.
If Chen Mengyi can remain lucid, then when she wants revenge in the future, I won't hesitate to help her.
After staying at home for one night, Long Lan drove over early the next morning to pick up Ye Weiwei and her three babies to take them back to her parents' home.
This time, she stayed directly at her parents' house.
It wasn't until Ye Erge returned to his parents' home on the third day and saw him and his wife off on the train that Ye Weiwei finally returned to the research institute amidst Dr. Zhao's relentless calls.
The plant nutrient solution she developed has already shown initial results. The crops and vegetables in the experimental greenhouse that used the plant nutrient solution have sprouted and grown much taller, and the difference is quite obvious compared to the crops and vegetables on the other side that did not use the plant nutrient solution.
