Chapter 38 The Great Confucian in the World (1)

Ye Ying's face changed slightly, and she forced a smile. Ye Li quickly calmed down the fluctuations in her heart and smiled at Xu Qingchen, "It's Li'er who is rude. Brother, let's go in. My father and grandmother are waiting for several cousins ​​and fifth brothers." Xu Qingchen nodded, and Xu Qingze next to him waved his hand, and the servant of the Xu family who was waiting on the side took out the gifts he brought from the carriage behind and followed the master to the gate of the Ye Mansion.

Ye Li followed Xu Qingchen and Xu Qingze and asked softly: "Brother, are your uncle and aunt okay?"

Xu Qingchen nodded and smiled, "My mother stayed in Yunzhou, but fortunately my father was just a little tired all the way. Just have a little rest."

"My uncle and cousin are here, and I don't tell Li'er, so Li'er can go and greet him." Ye Li complained in a low voice.

Xu Qingfeng, who was walking behind, laughed and said, "It's not my fault. It was because my uncle came in advance and no one was allowed to pick him up. My uncle and brother lived in a villa in the capital and my father only found out. He also got angry." Ye Li also knew that his uncle's personality did not like the formal restraint, and she didn't care about it and said, "Then I'll go to see my uncle tomorrow. Are you okay with Madam Lin and Madam Wei?"

"It's all good. Madam Lin and Madam Wei are the most loyal to their aunt. Their families are also willing to follow you to Ding the King's Mansion. So grandpa asked their families to follow them too." Xu Qingze said.

Ye Li nodded and said nothing politely. She felt even more guilty towards her grandfather. She had never been able to bear the favor, but she still had to worry about her when she was old.

Xu Qingchen lowered his eyes to her, raised his hand and patted her shoulder and said, "Don't think too much, as long as you live a good life, grandpa will be happy."

"I know." Ye Li said.

Ye Lin and Ye Shan looked at several handsome men walking away surrounded by Ye Li, and then looked at Ye Ying with a gloomy expression beside them. They looked at each other, and Ye Lin looked at Ye Ying carefully and said, "Fourth Sister... those... are the cousins ​​of the third sister?" Ye Ying raised her head and glared at her fiercely. The vicious expression that she had almost never seen before made Ye Lin take a step back and almost hit Ye Shan behind her. Ye Ying sneered and looked at her disdainfully, saying, "Give up as soon as possible. What kind of family is the Xu family will not like you!" After saying that, he turned around and followed him without caring about what Ye Lin's expression was.

Ye Lin was stunned by Ye Ying's words, and her beautiful and immature face suddenly turned red. Thinking of Ye Ying's meaning, she was both ashamed and embarrassed. Ye Shan looked at her and shook her head and said, "She was in a bad mood. Who told you to be provoked? Let's go quickly. Grandma will be unhappy if she goes back late." Ye Lin didn't expect that Ye Shan, who has always been on the way back to the bridge, would comfort herself. Seeing that the others were almost gone, she could see no signs, so she hurriedly followed Ye Shan.

Rongle Hall

"My younger brothers and I have met the old lady, and I have met... uncle." Xu Qingchen stepped forward and greeted Mrs. Ye and Shangshu Ye, and then the others followed him to salute. Mrs. Ye looked at the five men standing in the hall, not to mention how handsome and elegant Xu Qingchen, who had long been famous all over the world, even Xu Qingyan, who was only thirteen years old, had a graceful look and demeanor. He was unwilling to admit it, but he had to say that the Xu family was indeed better than the Ye family. Mrs. Ye's eyes flashed and she quickly smiled: "It's all a family, please spare these false gifts. How good is your father?"

Xu Qingchen stood tall and replied gracefully and calmly: "My father is safe, but I just couldn't come to visit the old lady all the way. Please forgive me."

Although he knew that he was just a polite word, Mrs. Ye couldn't say much. She just smiled and said, "It's hard to go on the road, so I should have a good rest. Rong'er hasn't come to see my cousin."

Ye Rong stood beside Wang, and wanted to say something, but saw that his father was staring at him sternly. Then he reluctantly stepped forward and said, "Rong'er has met his cousin." Ye Rong is not a scheming person, and even does not do good things on the surface. He doesn't like Ye Li, and naturally he doesn't like Ye Li's cousin. So even though he was warned by his father and grandmother before, he still couldn't completely cover up his expression. Even when he was at the ceremony, he was a little careless and perfunctory. Seeing Ye Shangshu's face darkened again.

Xu Qingyan curled his lips, turned his head and didn't say anything. Anyway, he was the youngest, so it was not his turn to speak. Xu Qingchen seemed to have not seen Ye Rong's expression, and his smile was still gentle and polite, and even had a bit of kindness. "Young Master Ye is polite. I heard that Ye is very literary. Qingyan and Ye are the same age as you, so they are very naughty. You might as well walk around more when you have nothing to do."

Xu Qingyan was crazy, who wanted to walk with him? But he didn't dare to refute Xu Qingchen's meaning at all. He showed a friendly smile obediently, "What the eldest brother said is, my younger brother must learn more from Mr. Ye."

Xu Qingchen was very satisfied with his brother's obedience and turned around and asked someone to give him a gift to Ye Rong and the Ye family. Ye Rong immediately felt a little more fond of Xu Qingchen. Compared to Xu Qingfeng who always looked at him, he was not even threatening and contemptuous. Xu Qingchen, who had no intention of looking down on him at all, was simply too fond of him.

While being forced to make friends, Xu Qingyan flashed to Xu Qingbai without any trace, secretly poked his arm, and then gave his confused look: How could the elder brother like this fool?

Xu Qingbai's eyes were upright and fair: because he was stupid enough to be idiotic.

Why wouldn't the idiot think that their boss really likes the Ye family except her cousin? Is this possibility even lower than that of the elder brother who won't make things difficult for the king?

Under the leadership of his elder brother Xu Qingchen, several young men from the Xu family had a cordial meeting with Ye Shangshu and Old Woman Ye. As for Wang, who sat aside several times and couldn't speak, he was artificially ignored. The fifth son of the Xu family said afterwards that his grandfather had no hobby of talking to other people's concubines. Yes, in the eyes of the Xu family, he had never recognized the status of the Wang family's official wife. Not to mention the grudge between Wang and the late Mrs. Xu, the Xu family itself did not admit that the concubine was properly supported. Of course, this may also be related to the fact that no one had taken concubines except for a few generations of the Xu family. If Wang was really a lady of a famous family, virtuous, respectful, they could still give a certain amount of respect. Unfortunately, Wang obviously did not have these qualities.

Afterwards, Xu Qingchen politely raised his father's longing for his niece who had not seen for many years, and asked to take Ye Li to the Xu family's villa to live for a while. Mrs. Ye naturally refused without thinking, and said that Ye Li was about to get married and needed to stay at home to marry. Xu Qingchen said that because her aunt died early, her grandfather was afraid that her cousin would not be underestimated by her in-laws after she got married. She specially ordered her second aunt to invite several wives who were the best at managing the family in the capital to teach her. She also sent several nannies to teach her cousin's etiquette from the new ones. After all... it was said that the third lady of the Ye family was a three-no daughter who had no talent, no virtue, and no appearance. This shows that her cousin needs to be rigorously taught in terms of etiquette and manners.
