Chapter 468: The Ye Family in Beijing
Moreover, he still looked like a teenager. Now, more than ten years have passed. Even if he stood in front of him, he would probably not recognize him.
Not to mention, that person has already died on the battlefield.
"Shen Yuan, I'm sorry, uncle is a little excited."
Ye Mufei forced a smile, raised his hand gently and patted him on the back.
The boy was not very tall back then, and he could pat his shoulder with just a slight raise of his hand.
Now, he needs to raise his hand to reach it.
Su Wanwan looked at the two of them and always felt that her uncle recognized Huo Yuan, but she also felt that they were a little different.
Regardless of whether he recognized him or not, it seemed that his uncle would only think of him as Shen Yuan.
"Brother-in-law, you are so great. You have brought disaster to my two sisters!"
Ye Xingfeng's train of thought was surprisingly the same as Ye Xingzhou's. When he saw Shen Yuan, he thought of the two sisters marrying the same person.
I couldn't help but start to act sarcastic.
He thought his father would feel uncomfortable just like him, but when his father heard what he said, he actually scolded him:
"You bastard, why are you so jealous? They didn't marry at the same time, so what? That just shows that the sisters have good taste, and that Shen Yuan is good. At least he is better than that shitty champion!"
This sentence left Ye Xingfeng speechless.
Ye Mufei was a man of few words, but after he finished speaking, he tightened his lips, looked at the princess's younger brother and sister-in-law, and then looked at his daughter.
It's all his fault. He kept talking about being the top scholar for no reason.
Seeing her father like this, Ye Jingxue knew that he was afraid that she would be sad, and then smiled and said:
"I think what Dad said is right. They didn't get married at the same time. Sister Nishang is no longer with us. She must also hope that brother-in-law and the children live well. Sister-in-law is a good person and treats Wanwan well. There's nothing wrong with becoming husband and wife."
"It's just that I don't know whether to call him brother-in-law or brother-in-law now. But I still like to call him brother-in-law. After all, we are all family, which is good."
Sister Nishang is no longer with us, and it’s Wanwan who’s here now. Of course, it’s safer to call her brother-in-law.
Ye Jingxue's words eased the atmosphere. When she mentioned the top scholar, she no longer felt anything, not even a sad expression.
"It's all the same name, you can call it whatever you want."
Shen Yuan didn't care. Of course, it was better to call him brother-in-law, because he was my real brother-in-law.
He is not my brother-in-law.
"Yes, Xue'er said it well. We are all family after all. Although the dead are the greatest, we should always look forward. The living are the most important."
Ye Mufei responded, glanced at the princess, then lowered his eyes, feeling a little guilty.
Yun Ran didn't notice her uncle's expression. She just thought of her eldest daughter, Ye Nishang, and felt sad. How great it would be if she were still alive.
However, if not for this, they would probably not be able to find Xing'er.
Is this all God’s will?
"Dad, Mom, we are hungry, can we eat now?"
Xiao Yue'er and the others had played enough and felt hungry, so they ran over to ask.
Seeing the children, everyone's mood began to brighten up.
It’s New Year’s Day, why would you be unhappy? You can’t let your little darlings go hungry.
Let’s have a reunion dinner!
"Okay, let's go and eat."
Yun Ran spoke, then stood up and pulled a few children with him.
The atmosphere suddenly became lively.
The eldest brother Ye Xingyuan, who was far away in the capital, received the letter not long after they left.
After seeing the contents of the letter, I couldn't wait to rush to Beichang Prefecture.
It’s a pity that he really can’t get away.
I couldn't help feeling a little resentful and just sat there sighing.
This year, without my father and second aunt around, it felt like something was missing.
"Da Lang, what's wrong with you? Did something happen to Dad and the others?"
Qiao Mingzhu came over with tea and snacks. Seeing his expression, she thought something had happened. Her expression tensed up and she quickly put the things on the stone table and sat beside him with a nervous look on her face.
Judging from the date, my father-in-law and his family should not have arrived in Beichang Prefecture yet.
Ye Xingyuan saw his wife coming over and held her hand.
"They are fine. This letter was written by my second aunt. Dad and the others left before they received the letter."
Speaking of this, Ye Xingyuan smiled.
"It's actually a good thing. Second Aunt recognized that goddaughter, who is also Xiao Yue'er's stepmother, Su Wanwan. She is Second Aunt's biological daughter and the youngest sister of our Ye family."
Although he also found it unbelievable, the third brother had been to the northwest to confirm it, so it must be true.
He couldn't help but feel happy when he thought of this.
This is the best news I've heard in years.
He didn't even dare to imagine how happy Second Aunt would be.
Even he felt so unreal.
"Ah? Su Wanwan? My little sister? Is she the child that died young that you mentioned about Second Aunt?"
Qiao Mingzhu was also shocked. This was too magical.
"That Su Wanwan, is she the one who was named the county lady by His Majesty? She also discovered sweet potatoes and corn to improve farm tools? Our Ye family is really amazing. I used to respect her very much and thought she was a role model for us girls. I didn't expect that she would become our little sister?"
Qiao Mingzhu was also overjoyed.
If I had known earlier that she was going to Beichang Prefecture with her father-in-law and others, I might have seen my younger sister by now.
But looking back at her husband, she decided to give up. How could she bear to leave him alone in the capital?
If she also took the child away, her husband would be too pitiful.
"That's right, you are worthy of being a member of our Ye family."
Speaking of this, Ye Xingyuan also felt proud of it.
That is a great contribution that will benefit the world for thousands of years, a contribution like that of a living bodhisattva.
"I have to write a letter to see if Dad and Second Aunt can let my little sister come back to recognize her ancestors after the New Year."
He couldn't wait to see his younger sister, but he couldn't leave the capital, and he didn't know if his younger sister could come to the capital.
If he can't come, please take a break after you finish this busy period.
"Now that you have found my little sister, she must come back to recognize her ancestral roots. However, Beichang Prefecture wants to promote new crops. As the person who discovered the new crop, I am afraid it will not be easy for my little sister to come back."
As soon as Qiao Mingzhu said this, Ye Xingyuan's smile froze on his face.
How could he have forgotten about this?
Yes, my younger sister is very busy now, so never mind, he should go see her when he has time.
But he still replied.
Qiao Mingzhu stayed with her all the time, and soon her two sons came over.
"It's so cold, and you're sweating all over. Go take a shower. We'll have dinner soon."
When Qiao Mingzhu saw her two sons, she immediately stepped forward and wanted to arrange for them to wash up.
"Mom, we are all grown boys now. We can do it on our own. I can also take care of my brother. You just take a rest."
When the eldest son saw that his mother wanted to help, he hurriedly tried to stop her.
Qiao Mingzhu smiled and said:
"No matter how old he is, he is still my son. Come on, you guys should go quickly. You must be hungry after practicing for so long."
After sending the two children to wash up, Ye Xingyuan finished writing the letter and asked the servant to send it away.
Looking at Qiao Mingzhu and the children talking and laughing happily, he couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth. He stood up, walked up to her and pinched her shoulders.
"Madam, you have worked hard doing housework every day."
