Chapter 242: I really don't want to see you
Sitting in the car, looking at Liu Mengyi driving with a gloomy expression, Ye Zetao wanted to say that he was driving.
"What's the situation now?" Comrade Ye Zetao said.
"Everyone at home is back!"
When Mr. Tian arrived in Beijing, he saw Liu Mengyi coming to pick up Ye Zetao, so he left with the person who seemed to pick him up. Ye Zetao followed Liu Mengyi and rushed towards the Liu family.
Thinking of the situation of the Liu family, Ye Zetao still felt a little guilty. This was the first time he came to the Liu family, and he came to the Liu family under such circumstances. He didn't know what kind of attitude the Liu family had towards him.
Thinking of what Old Man Tian said, Ye Zetao knew that this trip to the Liu family would not go smoothly, and he might even see a lot of unpleasant looks.
Seeing Liu Mengyi's sad look again, Ye Zetao could only muster the courage to take this trip.
This is a rest home for senior cadres like a park. The environment inside is very good, and inspections are very strict along the way. As the car drove inside, Ye Zetao felt curious when looking at everything here.
After a long journey, Ye Zetao's curiosity gradually disappeared. Apart from the better things done here and the better houses, looking at the old men and women walking around, they were not much different from his own parents.
Liu Mengyi stopped the car in front of a small independent courtyard.
There are all kinds of high-end cars parked here.
When Ye Zetao looked at it, it looked very big. It was a courtyard just a few steps in, and it still looked very impressive.
Entering inside, Ye Zetao saw more and more people coming and going.
Seeing Liu Mengyi and Ye Zetao coming in, many people looked at Ye Zetao with various expressions on their faces.
Liu Mengyi said to Ye Zetao: "They are all acquaintances and friends in Beijing, don't worry about them.
Ye Zetao knew that these people might be some figures in the Liu family, so he followed Liu Mengyi and walked inside.
When they entered a hall, they saw a place of worship like a mourning hall. On top was a large image of an old lady, which looked somewhat similar to Liu Mengyi.
There were also many people worshiping here, and Ye Zetao did not dare to neglect them. He also imitated some people who came in and lit incense. Thinking that he was a junior, he knelt down and saluted.
Ye Zetao's etiquette was to carry luggage in the manner of the old lady's relatives and descendants.
Seeing everything here, Ye Zetao discovered that the etiquette style of the Chinese people was not much different whether it was the lower class people or the upper class people.
"Mengyi, how come you have brought all kinds of people back!"
While Ye Zetao was worshiping, a woman's voice came over.
"Mom, this is Ye Zetao, you know it!" Liu Mengyi looked at the middle-aged woman and said.
Looks like you are not being kind to yourself!
As soon as he heard this woman say such words, Ye Zetao felt a little uneasy. This woman was Liu Mengyi's mother, and she didn't seem to welcome his arrival!
Liu Mengyi didn't pay much attention to her mother's condition. After seeing Ye Zetao finish praying, she pulled Ye Zetao over and said to the woman: "Mom, Zetao came from Ninghai!"
Said to Ye Zetao: "This is my mother!"
Ye Zetao said hurriedly: "Hello, aunt!"
With a snort, Liu Mengyi's mother didn't say anything because she was facing a lot of people arriving. She just looked at Ye Zetao from top to bottom for a while, with a look in her eyes like a superior looking at a inferior.
.
Although Ye Zetao saw the look in the other person's eyes, thinking that he had to give Liu Mengyi face, his face remained calm.
"Let's go over there." Liu Mengyi, dressed in black, walked over with Ye Zetao, who was wearing a black suit.
After standing there under Liu Mengyi's arrangement, Ye Zetao realized that he seemed to have become a member of the Liu family.
Ye Zetao is happy to take things as they come.
After standing for a while, not knowing what kind of people he was holding hands with, Ye Zetao had a feeling that there were not many people arriving, and he didn't see any important people arriving.
I don’t know what kind of process the old lady’s funeral arrangements are like.
"People have been coming from time to time in the past two days, so I will make temporary arrangements at home, and organize a memorial service in Babaoshan." Liu Mengyi whispered in Ye Zetao's ear.
Ye Zetao nodded slightly, but thinking in his heart, even so, there were still fewer people coming to the Li family, which showed that the Liu family's power was declining!
After a while, Ye Zetao noticed that there was some commotion among the Liu family. He saw a group of people coming from outside. The leader was an imposing man in his sixties. Ye Zetao felt that this person looked familiar.
When I took a closer look at the appearance, I was somewhat surprised to see that it was Sun Xiangjun, Secretary of the Jinling Municipal Party Committee!
There were many people following Sun Xiangjun.
Seeing these people arriving, no one knew who ran quickly to the backyard. Soon, a group of people came out of the backyard.
"My dad and the others are here!" Liu Mengyi whispered.
Ye Zetao saw that the leader was very thin, as if he was about to be blown down. Although he looked like a man in his fifties, he looked too pretentious.
This is Liu Mengyi's father.
Liu Mengyi didn't take her to see her father just now. She probably didn't want to embarrass her father when she saw him!
Ye Zetao even felt the difficulty of this trip to the Liu family.
When looking at Liu Mengyi, Liu Mengyi also looked at Ye Zetao.
"Zetao, no matter what happens, my heart will never change!" Liu Mengyi suddenly said this.
Because of Tian Linxi's instructions, Ye Zetao's heart moved and he turned his eyes to the arriving group. He had a feeling that the Sun family was probably the one the Liu family wanted to marry.
Sure enough, Ye Zetao discovered that there was a handsome young man in the arriving team, who was following Sun Xiangjun closely.
Could it be that that person is the one who has always liked Liu Mengyi?
Just when Ye Zetao looked over, the young man also happened to look over. When he saw Ye Zetao standing next to Liu Mengyi, he saw that the young man's eyes suddenly revealed a murderous look, and he
His eyes were fixed on Ye Zetao.
It should be him!
Ye Zetao was basically able to determine that the Liu family was planning to marry another family. This time, he hoped to sacrifice Liu Mengyi's happiness so that the Liu family could gain support again.
Obviously feeling his son's gaze, Sun Xiangjun, who was walking towards him, also turned his attention to Ye Zetao.
There was no expression change in his eyes. He just glanced at Ye Zetao, as if there was a kind of kindness in his eyes.
Ye Zetao was shocked. This Sun Xiangjun had already hidden his emotions and anger in his heart. Despite his expression, who could know what he was thinking.
"Secretary Sun, you are here!" Liu Mengyi's father had already reached out and shook it.
Sun Xiangjun's face showed a heavy expression: "Dongliu, my condolences! I rushed back after knowing the news!"
In one sentence, Liu Mengyi's father Liu Dongliu was very moved and said: "Thank you, Secretary Sun!"
"Well, let me salute first." Sun Xiangjun stepped forward and saluted respectfully, and then followed the Liu family members to shake hands one by one. Every time he shook someone's hand, he would ask a few questions,
Say a few words of comfort.
When he got to Liu Mengyi, Sun Xiangjun said: "Mengyi, don't be too sad, everyone has this day, and old people don't want living people to be like this. Alas, life is like this, birth, old age, illness and death are natural laws!
"
After shaking Liu Mengyi's hand, as if she didn't see Ye Zetao, she stretched out her hand to hold it to a member of the Liu family who was standing behind Ye Zetao.
Such an action immediately aroused Liu Mengyi's confession. Just when he was about to say something, Ye Zetao said: "Mengyi, you are tired too. Let me help you go over and take a rest."
By doing this, the hand that Sun Xiangjun's son was extending could be stretched or retracted.
Liu Mengyi suddenly felt relieved, nodded slightly and said: "Okay."
He leaned on Ye Zetao's shoulder and was helped by Ye Zetao to sit down.
Seeing the kind of weakness Liu Mengyi showed, it was hard for everyone to say anything. When the old lady died, Liu Mengyi was the saddest person.
Sun Xiangjun then looked at Ye Zetao and said, "Who is this?"
He was just pretending, pretending that he didn't know Ye Zetao.
Liu Mengyi's mother hurriedly said: "It's a friend of Mengyi's who came to help."
Sun Xiangjun nodded slightly and said, "Oh, that's right!"
Then he looked at Liu Dongliu and said: "Dongliu, the whole family must solve the family problems!"
After saying this, he stepped forward and shook Liu Dongliu's hand and said, "I won't bother you!"
Seeing Sun Xiangjun leaving in such a leisurely manner, the people in the Liu family looked at Ye Zetao with anger in their eyes.
Even though Sun Xiangjun didn't say much, his words before leaving, "The family affairs must be settled," were very meaningful. They were obviously very dissatisfied with the Liu family for having someone like Ye Zetao.
Everyone in the Liu family knows very well that the Liu family now needs the help of someone like Sun Xiangjun. With the support of the Sun family, the Liu family can be stable.
A middle-aged man who didn't know who he was from the Liu family looked at Liu Meng and said, "Mengyi, the Liu family can handle the Liu family's affairs by themselves. It's better for those who have nothing to do with him to leave!"
After saying this, the middle-aged man looked at Ye Zetao and said: "Young man, please leave the Liu family now!"
Seeing that many people were looking at him, Ye Zetao thought that he had done his best anyway. Since the Liu family didn't welcome him, he should leave. He said to Liu Mengyi: "Mengyi, let's find a place."
Stay here first and we’ll contact you if anything happens!”
"I'll go with you." Liu Mengyi also saw the family's attitude towards Ye Zetao, stood up and said to Ye Zetao.
"Mengyi, your grandma just left. There are so many things going on at home, so you are not allowed to go anywhere!" Liu Mengyi's mother said loudly.
Ye Zetao patted Liu Mengyi's shoulder gently and said, "I'm fine!"
