Chapter 72: Big House Farce
Ye Mingzhu suddenly had an idea: "Has there been any change in Ye Yunkang's situation?"
Ever since she decided to break off relations with the first wife, Ye Mingzhu no longer called her cousin. In the entire first wife's house, only Ye Yunjian and his wife could still get her respect, and the others were ignored.
Jiang Hongyu pulled her up directly and said, "Let's go. It will be hard to find a seat later."
Ye Mingzhu only had time to put down the fruit in her hand before Jiang Hongyu pulled her up.
"Wait, let me wipe my hands." Ye Mingzhu had just eaten a small sour fruit that was unique to Yuanshan Village. It was slightly sour but very juicy.
Jiang Hongyu went to the side and poured some water for Ye Mingzhu to wash her hands. Ye Mingzhu was a little nervous when he looked at her, so she washed quickly.
The two people walked out quickly, and the direction they were heading to was actually Uncle Ye’s house?
Ye Mingzhu's eyes lit up with excitement as she quickly passed Jiang Hongyu. Ye Yun'an stood outside the fence and waved at them, "Sister, brother-in-law, come quickly. You can see clearly from here."
Jiang Hongyu helped Ye Mingzhu up so that she could stand on the pile of firewood.
"Mingzhu, do you know the woman Yunkang is protecting?" A woman in floral clothes came over and asked in a low voice.
Ye Mingzhu recalled but couldn't remember who this was.
Ye Yunan reminded her from the side: "Sister, this is Aunt Guilan's daughter-in-law, Sister Ying."
Ye Mingzhu remembered that Aunt Guilan's son was a constable in the government office (Chapter 27), and it seemed that her wife lived in the village.
"You don't go out much, so it's normal that you don't recognize me." Sister Ying tucked her hair behind her ears and suddenly her voice became anxious: "Look, look, your aunt is sitting on the ground."
There was a commotion around. Ye Mingzhu looked to the side and saw that there were people gathered outside the courtyard wall of the entire main house. There were about twenty people, half of them were women and half of them were children. Jiang Hongyu was very obvious among them.
The corner of Ye Mingzhu's mouth twitched, and everyone saw that she was just there to watch the fun.
When Jiang Hongyu saw her turn around, he nodded towards the yard and protected her behind him.
"Mingzhu, your husband is a good one." Sister-in-law Ying winked at her.
Ye Mingzhu smiled: "Sister-in-law, what's going on?"
"Lu Jingya came to look for your cousin and was seen by your aunt, who started a commotion in the yard." Sister-in-law Ying said simply.
"Ye Yunkang, you're actually protecting this bitch?" Lin's voice rose eight degrees. "Don't forget you're engaged. How are you going to explain this to Yujiao?"
Ye Yunkang was very annoyed. He glanced at the people watching outside the courtyard and lowered his voice: "Mom, let's go inside and talk."
Seeing that he had lowered his voice, Lin thought he was going to give in, but instead she became relentless: "If you drive this woman away, I will get up."
Ye Yunkang scratched his hair and stepped forward to pull Lin: "Mom, I'm sending her away now."
Lin spat on the ground and stood up with the help of Ye Yunkang.
Lu Jingya lowered her head, grabbed Ye Yunkang's clothes, and didn't say a word.
On the wall, Sister Ying was stunned: "It's over so soon?"
Ye Mingzhu also felt something was wrong, and she turned around to look at Jiang Hongyu.
Jiang Hongyu smiled at her and opened his mouth, but no sound came out. However, Ye Mingzhu understood what was happening.
What's coming?
Before Ye Mingzhu could wonder for too long, footsteps were heard. A middle-aged man with a dark face came hurriedly with Lin Wangshi, Lin Yujiao, and a few other people behind them.
Ye Yunkang was about to go out with Lu Jingya when Lu Jingya tripped and he helped her up.
What everyone in the Lin family saw was Ye Yunkang holding Lu Jingya's waist, lowering his head slightly, and Lu Jingya gently shaking her head.
"Cousin, why did you bring her back?" Lin Yujiao rushed forward, her voice trembling, her hands shaking, staring at the man and woman in front of her.
Ye Yunkang frowned subconsciously, and after seeing the people coming in clearly, he put down his hand and greeted the people outside the door one by one.
"Uncle, aunt, eldest cousin, second cousin."
The people opposite him didn't say anything, just looked at the two of them with disdain.
When Mrs. Lin heard the sound in the yard, her eyes were filled with panic. She hurried out, took Mrs. Lin Wang's hand and was about to walk inside.
Ye Yunkang took the opportunity to push Lu Jingya and let her go first.
Lu Jingya raised her pink little face and looked at Ye Yunkang, but was unexpectedly grabbed by the hair by the anxious Lin Yujiao.
"Ah..." Lu Jingya let out a scream, and Ye Yunkang immediately stepped forward to help. With a force, he pushed Lin Yujiao to the side.
Lin Yujiao looked at Ye Yunkang in disbelief: "Cousin, you hit me for her?"
Ye Yunkang pushed Lin Yujiao away in a hurry just now and didn't use much force. But no matter how he explained it now, Lin Yujiao didn't believe it. The black body with the tears on her face looked awkward no matter how he looked at it.
The head of the Lin family couldn't bear it anymore, so he stepped forward and punched Ye Yunkang. Ye Yunkang tried his best to dodge, but was still hit.
Lin pleaded for mercy, but the two people fighting ignored her. She wanted to rush in, but was held back by Lin Wang, who just stood there anxiously.
Seeing Lu Jingya hiding in the corner, Ye Mingzhu asked curiously, "Why did Lu Jingya come to the Ye family?"
Sister-in-law Ying shook her head: "When I arrived, they were arguing in the courtyard. Lin wanted to hit her, but Ye Yunkang stopped her and finally asked them to leave."
Soon, Lu Jingya solved her puzzlement.
Ye Yunkang's head was broken, and the Lin family boss stopped. Lu Jingya immediately stepped forward to support Ye Yunkang: "How can you be so cruel?"
The eldest son of the Lin family did not leave her, and Lin Wang sneered: "What does it have to do with you if we teach our future son-in-law a lesson?"
"This is my man." Lu Jingya's words were like thunder and lightning. There was silence both inside and outside the courtyard.
Everyone understood what Lu Jingya meant, and the two of them became husband and wife.
"You two dogs!" Lin Yujiao cursed while panting, then stepped forward and slapped Ye Yunkang with such force that they both fell to the ground. Lu Jingya exclaimed, "How can you be so barbaric?"
Lin Yujiao glanced at her with disdain: "Slut!"
After saying that, he turned around and left. Mrs. Lin Wang almost bit her back teeth to pieces, but she was worried about her daughter, so she could only hurry to catch up.
Ye Yunshun came out of the house and asked his uncle to sit inside. Uncle Lin raised his fist, glared at Ye Yunkang, and finally walked away.
Ye Yunshun was somewhat helpless, and Lin stepped forward and slapped Ye Yunkang and Lu Jingya.
Ye Yunkang was hurt by the beating and angrily said, "Are you my real mother? You don't protect me at all?"
Ye Yunshun didn't know what to do, so he ran back to the house. He came out soon and called Lin, Ye Yunkang and Lu Jingya into the house.
The people outside the courtyard wall looked reluctant. Were they going back to the house to discuss the marriage? Would Ye Yunkang fulfill his engagement and marry Lin Yujiao, or would he marry Lu Jingya, who was already married?
Sister-in-law Ying tutted her tongue: "Lu Jingya usually looks so arrogant, I didn't expect her to do this. She always says that her family is aristocratic. Tut, tut, the character of aristocrats is really bad."
After Sister Ying finished speaking, she patted Ye Mingzhu's arm, looking for approval.
Ye Mingzhu looked at Jiang Hongyu behind her and smiled awkwardly.
Sister Ying followed her gaze and thought, "Oh no! I forgot Mingzhu married a man from Beijing!"
