General Ye said, "This woman has no manners at all. Yan'er, don't bother with Hua Fushu from now on."
Ye Songyan said, "When we meet in the future, we'll just nod and say hello normally. There won't be any interactions between us. Grandfather, you're worrying too much."
"You should go and meet your father." said General Ye.
Ye Songyan bowed and left the house, but saw Ruhuan in the yard, so the two of them went to Rongli Courtyard together.
At this time, Ye Shiheng and Madam Ouyang were drinking tea in the pavilion, still using the same set of white porcelain tea set.
The tea soup is light yellow, misty and has a light fragrance.
Madam Ouyang disliked the tea brewed by Ye Shiheng and said, "This tea is not comparable to white tea."
Ye Shiheng said: "You don't like tea, so why would you dislike it?"
Madam Ouyang said, "I was just speaking for you. White tea is hard to come by. You finally got a small jar, but you brewed it all in your excitement. You clearly dislike this tea in your heart, but you won't say it."
Ye Shiheng laughed and said, "Why should I talk about the troubles I brought upon myself?"
Ye Songyan stopped in his tracks, looking at the couple who treated each other with respect. He couldn't help but think of his own mother who was not liked by his father. He felt very uncomfortable, but he finally endured it and bowed respectfully, "Father, Mother."
Ye Shiheng's face suddenly turned stern, and he said in a commanding tone, "Look up."
Ye Songyan disliked his father's tone very much. He didn't feel that Ye Shiheng was a father, but rather a high and mighty general, cold and ruthless.
He slowly raised his head and looked at the two people in the pavilion. Madam Ouyang was quite surprised and almost thought it was Ye Zelin. "Are you really the fourth kid?"
This child actually looks 50% to 60% like her son. A few years ago, he looked 20% to 30% similar to Ye Zelin. Unexpectedly, after not seeing him for a few years, he looks even more like her son.
After all, they were brothers from the same father, so Madam Ouyang did not find it strange.
Ye Shiheng felt a little uncomfortable. He just glanced at Ye Songyan lightly and drove him out on the grounds that he was tired from the journey.
Although Ye Songyan was a little disappointed, he gave the Dahongpao he picked from Wuling to Ruhuan and left Rongliyuan.
Ruhuan was displeased. She glared at Ye Shiheng, gave the Dahongpao to her mother, and went after Ye Songyan.
Madam Ouyang placed the Dahongpao on the table and said, "Why do you have to let the child get angry?"
Ye Shiheng replied unhappily: "Rongyue, don't worry about what happens to me."
Madam Ouyang said, "After all, the four boys are your own flesh and blood. As a father, you should treat them all equally and treat them equally."
Ye Shiheng perfunctorily said, "The bowl of water must be held evenly."
Mrs. Ouyang could tell that Ye Shiheng was being perfunctory. She was about to talk to Ye Shiheng again, but Ye Shiheng asked her to talk to Ye Song about going to Wuyin.
Mrs. Ouyang went to look for someone in a bad mood.
Ye Shiheng sat alone in the pavilion, poured a cup of tea, and sipped it slowly, sighing: "After all, we are of the same blood. None of these boys and girls look like me."
After Ye Zelin came back from Wenxuzhai, he went to find Hua Fushu and asked her if she wanted to go to the lantern festival together.
Today was the Shangsi Festival, and Hua Fushu, who loved the hustle and bustle, naturally wouldn't miss it, so she agreed to it. At the end, Hua Fushu said, "If you break your promise, I'll never forgive you."
Ye Zelin assured: "No, no."
The lights are bright, the stars are shining, and the closed streets are deserted, with many more people than on market days.
The little girl has long hair and the young man is a beautiful woman.
In order to visit the Lantern Festival, Hua Fushu specially changed into a crimson dress, combed her hair into the simplest bun, and pinned a silver hairpin, looking a bit like a lady.
Ye Zelin was wearing a silver-gray round-necked robe and was tall and graceful. The two of them walked in the street, with Si De and San Qiao following behind them.
Hua Fushu bought a snack from a roadside stall. He kept talking and kept thinking about Ye Zelin. He handed the snack to him and asked, "Do you want some?"
Ye Zelin shook his head, and Hua Fushu asked again, "Really?"
Ye Zelin glanced at Sanqiao and said, "Give it to Sanqiao."
Hua Fushu said, "Qiao'er doesn't eat. She's afraid of getting fat."
Ye Zelin said: "But I'm not hungry..."
Hua Fushu took a small piece of food and stuffed it directly into his mouth, choking him so that he couldn't speak. He glared at him with his almond-shaped eyes and said fiercely, "Even if you don't want to eat it, you have to give it to me."
Si De looked at Hua Fu Shu and said, "Young lady, why are you being so mean to my young master?"
This is clearly a question.
Hua Fushu pushed the dot hard, and the whole dot went into Ye Zelin's mouth, and Ye Zelin almost choked.
Hua Fushu looked at Si De and angrily retorted, "He is my husband, not yours. Why can't I be mean to him?"
Ye Zelin looked at her.
Side was stunned, not knowing whether he was shocked by Hua Fushu's words or by Hua Fushu's fierceness.
Unexpectedly, Hua Fushu took a small dot and looked at Si De, saying with a smile: "Little Dezi, how about you have one too?"
Side was frightened. He didn't expect Hua Fushu to be so frivolous.
He hurriedly hid behind Ye Zelin, Hua Fushu walked behind Ye Zelin, and Side walked in front of Ye Zelin, and the two of them surrounded Ye Zelin, chasing and hiding.
Seeing this, Sanqiao laughed, and Ye Zelin also smiled helplessly.
Seeing that Si De was extremely frightened, he said to Hua Fushu, "Fushu, stop bothering Si De. He can't stand being frightened."
Hua Fushu was obedient and did not make trouble for Side. He ate the small piece in his hand and threw the rest with the oil paper ribbon to Ye Zelin.
Ye Zelin went on to say that he rarely ate street food and only ate it occasionally.
While eating, he reminded Hua Fushu, "Fushu, eat less food from outside in the future."
Hua Fushu wanted to ask him if he disliked the street food, but he didn't want to ruin the atmosphere of the lantern festival, so he reluctantly answered him.
"knew."
Ye Zelin looked at her, feeling somewhat helpless.
The lights are as bright as day, and peddlers and hawkers are coming and going in an endless stream, making the place very lively.
Looking at the strange-looking masks on the stall, Hua Fushu spent a few dollars to buy two masks, one for him and Sanqiao. He also wanted to buy one for Ye Zelin and Side, but Ye Zelin didn't want one.
The young master doesn't want it, and Si De doesn't dare to want it, nor can he want it.
Hua Fushu's mask was a fox mask, covering only half of her face, revealing her fair jaw and a pair of clear almond-shaped eyes. Sanqiao's was a more valuable phoenix mask, which she didn't wear on her face, but held in her hand.
Soon, Hua Fushu wanted to eat again, and pulled Ye Zelin to sit down at the wooden table next to them.
Unexpectedly, a young man in a duck-blue round-necked robe called out to Ye Zelin, holding a folding fan and bowing to him, "Brother Yu Shi."
Of course this person is an acquaintance.
Ye Zelin also returned the greeting, "Brother Huaixin."
Nie Huaixin waved his folding fan, glanced at Hua Fushu, and teased, "You got married, but you kept your young wife hidden away, and didn't even bring her to us to see what she looked like."
Ye Zelin thought he was busy and introduced Nie Huaixin to Hua Fushu, who exchanged a few polite words with him. Finally, Nie Huaixin said goodbye to them and reminded them to enjoy the lantern festival.
Ye Zelin watched Nie Huaixin walk away before saying, "Huaixin is a close friend of mine, and we're both on the academy's staff. When we got married, he and several other scholars from the academy came to congratulate us."
