When they were approaching the Shangxinyuan, Chen Jia walked over with a smile on her face.
As soon as he saw the old lady, he quickly walked forward, knelt down and saluted.
"Hey, Jia'er, get up, why are you giving such a big gift? Get up!"
The old lady looked at the thin and haggard daughter-in-law in front of her and helped her up with some distress. She looked at Chen Jia who was a little mentally disturbed and glanced at her son unconsciously.
Ye Jinyuan is also distressed, no worse than the old lady, but he really has no choice now. He can only wait for the child to be born, and then test with blood to see if the child is his, and what is going on.
He just went to Fucheng to report on his duties, but he got drunk by the prefect. When he woke up the next day, the prefect's sister was lying next to him.
He really didn't remember what he had done, but he was threatened by the prefect. If he didn't agree to their request, marry his sister, and drive his wives out of the house, he would file a lawsuit.
It's a small matter for Wu Sha Mao. He might be exiled when the time comes. In this case, his tired wife and children will suffer together.
He could only agree first. Who would have thought that this man would act like crazy from the day he was brought into the house. Not only did he angrily cut off his sister's relationship with him, but she also yelled at him all day long to drive out his wife and concubines.
He had no choice but to buy another mansion outside for Dong Xinyu to live in first.
Chen Jia refused to leave because she still had a three-year-old daughter to take care of. She was afraid that if she left like this, her little daughter would not survive in the hands of Li Lanjuan.
She has been suffering and being wronged in the house as an aunt.
She knew that Ye Jinyuan was in trouble, and that he had not changed his mind, but was forced by power. She also knew his plan, so she did not blame him and suffered all the grievances on her own.
Under the daily stress, I fell ill. Apart from taking care of my three children, I never left my yard.
Dong Xinyu's daughter is eight years old, and she understands everything. She was taught by her aunt to please her mistress, and now she can also please another mistress.
Therefore, life in the mansion was pretty good, unlike her two sons and daughters, who were usually unable to protect themselves and were almost beaten several times.
The old lady helped the person up, and Ye Qingcheng stepped forward to greet Chen Jia.
"Qingcheng pays my respects to my little aunt!"
Because her identity as the princess was not revealed, she was just a junior, and juniors must be polite when meeting their elders.
Chen Jia immediately went to help Ye Qingcheng, and then smiled gently, "Stop being so polite, we are all one family!"
Then he looked at Ye Jinyuan and said, "Master?"
Ye Jinyuan quickly stepped forward and supported the old lady, "Mom, let's go! The Courtyard will be here soon!" As he said that, he helped the person walk forward, not forgetting to greet his niece, "Qingcheng, my uncle's place is relatively simple.
The only courtyard left in the mansion is okay, but it's still big enough, so my brother-in-law took the initiative and arranged for you to live in your grandmother's courtyard. The conditions are indeed not comparable to those in the capital, so I've wronged you, my child!"
Aunt Cui gave up her position and asked Chen Jia and Ye Jinyuan to support the old lady together. Chen Jia did not forget to pull Ye Qingcheng along, so Ye Qingcheng had to hold Chen Jia's arm.
He smiled and said, "What are you talking about, uncle? It just so happens that I can live with my grandmother!"
She was still pretending to be sad and melancholy, but she had to stop in moderation. If she kept showing off at this time, the uncle might really think that she disliked her.
"Our daughter likes to stick to me, the old woman, so it's convenient for me to take care of her!"
When Ye Jinyuan heard this, he nodded sadly.
He knew that he would not be in a good mood to speak again in the future.
Ye Qingcheng could only lower his head and pretend to be in a bad mood and go his own way.
Chen Jia didn't know the situation and was confused, but she didn't ask any more questions.
A few people arrived at the Courtyard very quickly. The courtyard had been cleaned long ago and all supplies were available.
The maid also arranged for eight people to come in. As soon as they came in, they immediately served hot tea and snacks.
The old lady was sitting on the table, reminiscing about old times with her son and daughter-in-law. They hadn't seen each other for so many years. She really missed her son. After all, they were all the flesh that fell from her body.
And for so many years, she was actually lonely. Although Ye Jinnian was kind to her in every possible way, he was not her biological son.
Not long after, the servants led Ye Jinyuan's four children over.
The two sons are twins. Chen Jiasheng is ten years old, an eight-year-old daughter is Dong Xinyu, and there is a three-year-old daughter Chen Jiasheng.
The four children had obviously been taught by the servants. They knelt down politely to greet the old lady, and called her a kiss.
The old lady's eyes were red, and she prepared gifts for each child. After delivering the gifts, she watched the children come over to express their sweet thanks.
She is really happy. This place is not like the Prime Minister's Mansion in Beijing. Here are all her closest relatives. Her son is real, her grandchildren are real, and her daughter-in-law is gentle and virtuous.
In the capital, only Liancheng and Qingcheng are her grandchildren. Qingcheng was sent to the Northwest for three years. Now Liancheng has joined the army again. She only has one granddaughter by her side. Usually when this granddaughter has something to do, the old woman is left alone.
Yes.
"Grandma, dad always talks about you to Qin'er. I didn't expect that the grandmother my father mentioned would be so beautiful and young. Qin'er thought you were an old lady! Hehe..."
Eight-year-old Ye Qinyu smiled mischievously, and the words that came out of her mouth were even more flattering.
She is the daughter of Dong Xinyu, and she is also the only concubine in the family. However, Ye Jinyuan likes a daughter very much, so Chen Jia will not treat her as a concubine. Everything in the family is divided equally between the two daughters. In the past, the younger daughter Ye Hanyu did not
Before he was born, he was the only one he loved.
Neither son could compare to Ye Qinyu's status in Ye Jinyuan's heart.
Because this daughter looks a bit like her aunt Ye Jinxuan.
"Oh, Qin'er's mouth is so sweet. Did she steal some honey?" The old lady couldn't close her mouth happily and gently stroked her granddaughter's head.
I remember when Nannan was a child, she was really cute, cute and well-spoken.
Although she is still cute now, there are many things in her eyes that should not be present at this age.
Sometimes she feels very sad because such a young child has experienced everything that her age cannot bear.
Every time she thought about this, she hated her eldest son so much. Why did she abandon her old wife and children and follow the Ruan family?
Could it be that in his heart, his wife and children were not as important as the Ruan family?
"My cousin is more beautiful!"
Ye Qinyu was praised by her grandmother, and she also praised Ye Qingcheng again.
"Yes, your cousin is more beautiful! This child is so good at talking!"
When the old lady heard this, she became even more happy.
Ye Qinyu really guessed the old lady's point. The old lady really liked others to praise her daughter.
Ye Qingcheng touched her nose. Should she continue to pretend to be sad or answer the call?
