It was bright outside, breakfast was ready, and Aunt He was about to wake Wei Chen up when she found that Wei Chen had already come out of the room in high spirits, with a big smile on his face, looking very happy.
Aunt He was surprised to see Wei Chen's energetic smile the day after Wu Jing's death. "Young Master seems to be in a good mood today."
Wei Chen smiled and nodded, "Yeah, Achen is in a good mood when he wakes up this morning. It seems that he had a very good and sweet dream last night, so Achen is in a particularly good mood now."
Aunt He nodded happily and led Wei Chen to the restaurant. "Really? Then what did the young master dream about?"
Wei Chen tilted his head, as if trying to think, then shook his head, "I can't remember... But Achen is sure that there was my mother and my wife in the dream."
Aunt He paused for a moment, and then a hint of sadness and heartache appeared in her eyes.
Her poor young master could only see his mother in his dreams. He was so simple and easy to satisfy. He was so happy just because he had a dream. Why couldn't he be treated well by this family?
"Alas... Fortunately, the eldest young master has the support of the mistress, otherwise it would be even more difficult for him in this family." To this day, Aunt He has wholeheartedly believed in and relied on Ye Qin.
At this time, Ye Xin came over with a bitter face, "Aunt He, my sister said she was very sleepy and wanted to sleep a little longer, so she asked us to have breakfast first and not wait for her."
This sister is good in every way, except that she's a bit grumpy when she wakes up. I even hit her pillow just now...
The cute Ye Xin expressed that she felt very aggrieved.
Aunt He frowned, "The morning is the most important part of the day. How can we not eat breakfast? Take the young master to have breakfast first, and I'll go call the young mistress."
Ye Xin nodded, thinking that Aunt He was the elder after all, and she probably wouldn't be hit by a pillow by her sister.
"Let's go eat, brother-in-law." Ye Xin said to Wei Chen.
Wei Chen nodded, then said, "Can I take my breakfast to the yard to eat?"
"Sure." Ye Xin agreed and took Wei Chen's meal to the stone table in the yard. There was a chessboard and books about chess there. Wei Chen wanted to study and review on his own while Ye Xin was still asleep.
"Brother-in-law, Aunt He said that you should eat seriously when you eat. Doing anything else will cause stomachache." Ye Xin kindly reminded him, took the book from Wei Chen's hand, and put a steamed bun in his hand.
Wei Chen was in a good mood today, so he smiled when he saw his sister-in-law who usually competed with him for his wife. She was not angry when she snatched his book, but obediently ate the steamed bun.
Ye Xin looked at the well-behaved Wei Chen, and then she sat down to have breakfast.
The breakfast at the small building was very simple and ordinary, almost the same as that of an ordinary family, and even not as good as the breakfast of the slightly more decent servants in the Wei family.
Wei Chengzhi walked quietly into the west courtyard and saw Wei Chen sitting at a shabby stone table from a distance, holding a steamed bun in his hand. In front of him was a bowl of white porridge and two plates of pickled vegetables. The most luxurious thing was probably the boiled egg.
However, even with such a meal, Wei Chen ate it with gusto, with a satisfied smile like a child on his face.
Such a scene deeply hurt Wei Chengzhi's eyes and heart.
He kept recalling what Ye Qin had said when she scolded him at Shuxin Pavilion earlier.
"The late wife loved Wei Chen so much, yet you selfishly blamed her death on him. Have you ever considered that it was you who got the late wife pregnant and gave birth to the child? After all, isn't the person you should hate the most, yourself? Wei Chen, how innocent is he? What does he know?!"
Of course Wei Chen knew. He knew his mother was dead, and he knew his father didn't love him. He knew he was a disgrace to the family. Not only did he know, but everyone knew. Therefore, even the servants looked down on him. That's why Wang Meisha dominated the family, bullying him at will. You're truly a good father, allowing your current wife's illegitimate daughter to bully your beloved ex-wife's only son.
Now in this situation, thinking of Ye Qin’s words again, every word is heartbreaking.
At this time, it was time for most servants to go to work. The small building was the only way from the west courtyard to the east courtyard.
