Chapter 347 He Has Me in His Heart
When Zhou Zhili arrived at the Ye family, the atmosphere in the Ye family had just eased a little.
Ye Lanxin originally wanted to go back after dinner so that she could have a heart-to-heart talk with the Ye family to avoid any conflicts between the two families.
Seeing Zhou Zhili coming, the Ye family members were happy. This was the importance shown by the head of the family.
However, the Ye family was not very happy to see Zhou Yuxiu not behind him.
"Brother-in-law is here, is he here alone?" Ye Cheng asked.
Qin Kerou snorted almost inaudibly and then turned her face away.
Ye Chi and Shang Hongmian were actually quite normal. They just bowed and didn't ask any questions.
When Zhou Zhili saw the atmosphere between them, he felt embarrassed himself.
The Ye family has always been protective of their shortcomings. No matter what happened over the years, they always protected themselves.
I’m afraid that after Ye Lingyue complains about what happened today, the Ye family will hate her to death.
"Well, I originally wanted to bring Yu Xiu along, but something happened and he couldn't come. I thought I couldn't let you think the Zhou family didn't value Ling Yue, so I hurried over."
Zhou Zhili did not put on airs, which made the Ye family feel comfortable.
After hearing this, Ye Cheng's expression eased a little. In fact, he was also afraid that Zhou Zhili would use today's incident to express his dissatisfaction with the Ye family.
"What could have happened that prevented him from coming and made his pregnant wife wait at her parents' home?" Qin Kerou still couldn't understand.
Zhou Zhili had no choice but to say, "When he was drunk in a restaurant, he heard someone saying bad things about the Madam and Ling Yue, and he got into a fight with them. That restaurant happened to be owned by Gu Ruanci, and it was the same restaurant where Yu Qi fell to his death. He couldn't get up after he got home, and Gu Ruanci even sent someone to demand compensation. Alas, he must have been thinking about a lot of things..."
After hearing this, the Ye family no longer dared to ask any further questions.
They felt guilty about Zhou Yuqi's matter.
When Ye Lanxin heard that Zhou Yuxiu would actually fight with others for her, she felt happy in her heart. The companionship over the years did have an impact.
Even if this kid has awakened now and wants to seek an explanation for his mother, he will not really deny himself.
Ye Chi gave Ye Cheng a look, telling him to stop while he was ahead. After all, Zhou Zhili had already said this.
Since Zhou Zhili came in person and brought an explanation, Ye Cheng felt relieved.
"Brother-in-law, you are too polite. What happened today is not entirely Yu Xiu's fault. We are also wrong. Ling Yue has been spoiled by us since she was a child. She cannot stand being wronged and has a very stubborn temper. I hope you will be more tolerant when you go back."
After Ye Cheng finished speaking, he asked the servants to make tea again, and also asked someone to invite Ye Lingyue out.
Ye Chi and his wife got the hint and sat down.
Seeing that the atmosphere was much more relaxed than before, Qin Kerou's face was still tense.
"Brother-in-law, Lingyue has been spoiled by us since she was a child. If she does anything wrong, I hope you can tell her directly."
Ye Cheng repeated what he had just said, then glanced at Qin Kerou.
Qin Kerou of course understood what he meant, so she spoke reluctantly.
"Brother-in-law, Lingyue has been weak since she was a child. I'm afraid she's been wronged in the Zhou family. If there's anything she's done wrong, I hope you can point it out. Don't hide it. We in the Ye family are protective of our shortcomings, and we don't want Lingyue to be wronged in the Zhou family. But if she's done anything wrong, we're willing to apologize."
When Zhou Zhili heard this, it sounded like something human would say.
However, Qin Kerou had lost all her sons and was a woman, so he was too lazy to argue with her.
"Don't worry, Lingyue is a member of the Zhou family now that she's married into the family. I will treat her well and will never let her suffer any injustice."
After Zhou Zhili finished speaking, he picked up the tea.
When Ye Lingyue and the two elders of the Ye family came out at the same time, everyone stood up quickly.
When Old Madam Ye and Old Master Ye saw Zhou Zhili, they couldn't help but exchange pleasantries.
Zhou Zhili was also extremely polite to the two elders of the Ye family, and his words were full of respect.
Ye Lingyue stood aside, her eyes shifting between Zhou Zhili and the Ye family from time to time, with mixed feelings in her heart.
She didn't expect that Zhou Zhili would come to the Ye family in person, and she didn't expect that Zhou Yuxiu would still want to protect her when he was drunk.
When the servant went to look for her just now, he had already told her the reason, and she was deeply moved.
Fortunately, she did not tell her family that Zhou Yuxiu wanted to divorce, otherwise there would be a big misunderstanding today.
"Master, it's a good thing you came. My brother and sister-in-law thought that Yu Xiu had made this mistake and didn't want to make amends..."
Ye Lanxin mentioned this deliberately to show her presence, but in fact she also wanted Zhou Zhili to say a few more words to reassure the Ye family.
Ye Keguan and Pan Shi had already sat down. Listening to Ye Lanxin's words, Pan Shi spoke up, "You're smart. Your brother and sister-in-law are worried about their daughter. If Qinzhu gets married in the future and encounters the same thing, I'm afraid you and Zhili will be even more anxious."
Zhou Zhili smiled and nodded, and Ye Lanxin did not continue the topic.
Only Ye Keguan had previously focused his attention on what the servants said about Gu Ruanci sending people to the Zhou family to collect compensation.
I didn't expect her to be so indifferent. After all, that restaurant was where her third brother fell to his death. She was able to reopen it in such a short time without any hesitation.
Seeing his father's absent-minded look, Ye Cheng asked, "Father, what's wrong?"
Ye Keguan reacted and said awkwardly, "It's nothing. I just thought that Lingyue got pregnant not long after they got married. It was also God's blessing. Although there are some minor frictions between young people, that's normal. They are childhood sweethearts and know each other's temperament. They will not bear grudges."
Zhou Zhili agreed after hearing this, "Yes, Lingyue is a good child. Yuxiu was just confused for a moment. From the way he defended Lingyue even after getting drunk, it's clear that he still has Lingyue in his heart, so there's no need to worry, father-in-law."
After hearing this, Ye Cheng and Pan felt more relieved.
Ye Lingyue watched all this silently from the side, and her heart became more at peace.
"Husband, did you drink a lot? Will you feel uncomfortable?" Ye Lingyue asked.
Ye Cheng sighed, "It's true that when a girl grows up, she can't stay at home. Even if a married daughter has suffered grievances, she still thinks of her husband in her heart... Brother-in-law, let's have dinner here before we go. But Lingyue won't go back with you today. It's a rare occasion for her to come back. She needs to take care of the pregnancy and I'm afraid she won't be able to move around freely. Let her stay at home tonight and sleep with my wife."
Zhou Zhili had no way of refusing this request. At worst, he could just do it again tomorrow after Zhou Yuxiu sobered up.
"As it should be, this is all as it should be... And don't worry, Yu Zhi has already said that his medical skills are enough to ensure Ling Yue's safety from pregnancy to delivery..."
