The car door opened, and two people stepped out. They were a middle-aged man and a handsome young man with a military temperament. There was no doubt that they were Ye Handong and Ye Yingxin.
Ye Ming was tinkering with a plate of firecrackers at the gate. When Ye Handong and Ye Yingxin saw Ye Ming, they couldn't help but be startled, and then there were strange and complicated expressions on their faces.
When they looked at Ye Ming, Ye Ming also raised his head and looked at them. Their eyes met, but there was no joyful emotion of family reunion, just a fleeting indifference.
After reading, turn around and do things... it's that simple.
Ye Ming did not make any unnecessary moves. At the same time, he took Lin Yuxiang's feelings into consideration and did not say anything to ridicule Ye Handong and Ye Yingxin. It seemed that to Ye Ming, they were just two ordinary people.
Ye Handong pondered for a while, then suddenly stepped forward and said, "Ye Ming, do you need my help with this firecracker?"
"No need." Ye Ming replied coldly, without even raising his head.
With just one word, Ye Handong was blocked back. He stood there, neither leaving nor staying, looking very embarrassed.
"Han Dong, why don't you come in? Come quickly, I'll be waiting for you." At this moment, Lin Xionghui, who had been paying attention to the movement outside in the hall, spoke, giving Ye Handong a step down.
"Dad, I'm coming right now."
Ye Handong followed the steps, laughed dryly, and immediately walked towards the hall.
When passing by Ye Yingxin, Ye Handong said: "Go and help your brother get it done. During the Chinese New Year, there will be more excitement when there are more people. Don't let him get tired alone."
Will Ye Ming be tired from tinkering with firecrackers?
This is obviously an excuse for Ye Handong to let Ye Yingxin get close to Ye Ming. It is a very unreasonable excuse, and it is even worse.
Compared with Ye Handong, Ye Yingxin is not that generous. Although he knows that Ye Ming is much stronger than him, he becomes more and more unconvinced with the strength Ye Ming shows, and even has a perverted tendency to get into trouble.
Such thoughts.
He didn't understand why Ye Ming was so strong despite being born from the same mother, while he was just a little officer?
In the past, it would have been quite an honor to have such a military rank at his age, but after Ye Ming appeared, it seemed that all his glory was taken away by Ye Ming.
However, Ye Yingxin was very thoughtful. He knew that Ye Ming was much stronger than him and had let him go several times before. Therefore, although he was dissatisfied, he still suppressed it in his heart and did not let it surface.
To put it in the simplest words - Ye Handong wants to restore his relationship with Ye Ming, but Ye Yingxin definitely disagrees!
Ye Yingxin knew very well that even if Ye Ming returned to the Ye family, he would not get the slightest benefit. It was simply impossible to be like other brothers, so he had never thought about relying on Ye Ming.
Ming do something.
On the contrary, Ye Ming will also become a stumbling block for him to take the position of the head of the Ye family.
Now that Ye Handong had already spoken, even though he didn't want to, he had no choice but to step forward with a calm face and stand still.
Ye Ming didn't seem to notice this. He was tinkering with his own. Soon, he tore off the firecracker paper and hung the firecrackers on the bamboo poles.
In fact, everyone has that kind of mechanical hanging pole at home, but Lin Xionghui once said that raising the pole to set off the whip creates a much better atmosphere than putting it on that kind of mechanical hanging pole.
"Get out of the way." Feeling that the back of the bamboo pole was blocked, Ye Ming said coldly without looking back.
However, Ye Yingxin just grabbed the end of the bamboo pole without moving at all, staring at Ye Ming with his eyes, not knowing what it meant.
Ye Ming frowned, and then said calmly: "Today is the New Year. Mom and Grandpa have said that they don't want anything unpleasant to happen. If you are fine, just go in. I don't need you here."
"Brother, is the hatred between us really that deep?" Ye Yingxin suddenly asked.
Ye Ming turned his head suddenly, a cold light burst out from his eyes, but it was only for a moment before he was suppressed by it again.
This question can be said to be quite an idiot. Ye Yingxin once collaborated with others to kill him, and even encouraged Ye Ming's biological father Ye Handong to eliminate him. If he hadn't had some strength, how could he be living so securely now.
Hatred? These two words are simply not enough to express the anger in Ye Ming's heart.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Ming suddenly smiled and said, "Are you done? Let's light the firecrackers after that."
Ye Yingxin sighed and shook his head, and said as he walked: "Brother, I really hope to reconcile with you. Everything in the past was just a misunderstanding. I hope you don't take it to heart."
Ye Ming was indifferent, holding the bamboo pole with one hand, and the large string of firecrackers was completely rolled up.
Logically speaking, firecrackers are not allowed in the city center, but the Lin family is obviously not bound by those rules. Under the busy work of the 'brothers', the string of large firecrackers gradually turned into smoke and smoke amidst the deafening sound.
Paper scraps flew away.
Not only the Lin family here, but also some other places, there were the sound of firecrackers, and there were even fireworks rising into the sky, but after all, it was daytime, so it was not as beautiful as at night.
After setting off the firecrackers, Ye Ming went straight back to the living room. Ye Yingxin was silent for a while and then walked in.
At this moment, everyone has already sat down and is waiting for Ye Ming and Ye Yingxin to finish setting off the firecrackers before eating.
When Ye Yingxin saw the girls around the dining table, he couldn't help but be startled, and then smiled and said: "These are the brothers and sisters, right?"
The girls looked at Ye Yingxin with indifferent expressions on their faces, as if they had reached an almost impossible consensus at this moment.
They all know what happened between Ye Ming and Ye Yingxin, and they all know the dirty and insidious things Ye Yingxin did to Ye Ming, and they don't have the slightest fondness for him.
No one paid attention to him, Ye Yingxin felt embarrassed, and at the same time, the gloominess in his heart seemed to increase a little.
"Haha, Yingxin is right, these are all your younger brothers and sisters. How about the beauty of the country?" Lin Xionghui smiled faintly and unknowingly gave Ye Yingxin a step down.
"Of course my brother's girlfriend must be of heavenly beauty." Ye Yingxin twitched the corner of his mouth and sat down next to Ye Handong.
People from the Lin family and the Ye family all appeared here, and the girls did not embarrass Ye Ming anymore. Seeing that his expression was not very good, they all teased him in a low voice.
In response to this, Ye Ming could only smile bitterly. He was no longer a child, and when facing his family, he was coaxed by a woman as if she were a child, which made him a little embarrassed.
There was no talk of world affairs at home, and everyone finished the lunch happily in a speechless atmosphere.
After drinking and eating, Ye Ming was chatting and laughing with Shen Xin beside him. Ye Handong on the opposite side suddenly stood up, raised his wine glass, and said to Ye Ming: "Come on, Ye Ming, daddy gives you a drink."
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was stunned.
Lin Xionghui frowned slightly. He did not expect Ye Handong to behave like this. It can be said that he was the one who was always circling during the meal just now, and Ye Ming was always dealing with Ye Handong and Ye Yingxin without exception. Reacting indifferently, now Ye Handong does it again. If Ye Ming doesn't accept it, where will he put his face?
The meaning of Ye Handong's words was actually to secretly force Ye Ming. If Ye Ming accepted it, he would recognize himself as his father. If he did not accept it, Lin Yuxiang's situation would not be better.
"Han Dong, have you drunk too much? Sit down quickly, how can a father respect his son?" Lin Yuxiang glanced at Ye Ming, pulled Ye Handong's clothes and said.
"Haha, indeed, even if you want to toast, it is a son toasting his father. This is not in line with the rules." Lin Jiafeng also made a joke at the right time.
"fine."
Ye Handong waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's not like fathers don't respect their sons. It can only be said that the relationship between father and son is good, haha!"
"The person you should respect the most should be my mother." Under the gaze of everyone, Ye Ming finally raised his head and said indifferently.
"Indeed, I have hurt Yuxiang's heart during this period. This time, I am taking the opportunity of the Chinese New Year to invite Yuxiang back home. After all, it is not a problem to stay with my dad all the time." Ye Handong smiled. , and looked at Lin Yuxiang beside him.
"Yuxiang is my daughter, and it is natural for her to live here with me."
Lin Xionghui said: "But then again, she is also your wife after all, and that is her current home. I just hope that Yuxiang will go back with you this time, and you will not do anything to make her sad again. As it is now, as my father-in-law, I will not let you go easily."
"I haven't said I want to go back with you yet." Lin Yuxiang turned her head, still seeming a little angry.
"Yuxiang, our son is right. I owe you a lot. From now on, I will definitely treat you well. Don't be angry, okay?" Ye Handong raised his glass.
"Mom, go back." Ye Ming winked at Lin Yuxiang and smiled.
Lin Yuxiang rolled her eyes at Ye Ming, and then hummed: "Eat first, and then talk after eating."
In front of so many daughters-in-law, Lin Yuxiang would not embarrass Ye Handong. Everyone could hear the meaning of these words, so she agreed.
"Haha, it really works for my son!"
Ye Handong laughed loudly, raised his glass again and looked at Ye Ming, saying: "Son, come here, just because you did a big favor to dad just now, dad should respect you for this wine."
"Bang!"
Ye Ming slapped his hand on the table, stood up suddenly, his eyes were cold and sharp, like sharp swords, staring straight at Ye Handong, and said in a deep voice: "Don't talk about your son, who is your son? ! When I was in the ice and snow, why didn't you come out to find me? But now you are here pretending to be kind, and your conscience has been eaten by dogs?!" (To be continued.
