The expressions of the three people present almost changed.
Ye Qingfu's mind is very simple. She may not like Cui Yu, but when she sees Cui Yu showing such obvious love for Ye Qinglan, she feels uncomfortable. The emotion of envy and jealousy is clearly revealed.
came out.
Ms.
Ye Yuanzhou took a breath, and a series of fragments quickly passed through his mind.
After entering the Imperial Academy, Cui Yu came to chat with him enthusiastically and proactively. He only thought that it was because of Cui Wan that Cui Yu came to make friends with him. Later, the two gradually became familiar with each other and would occasionally mention their family members.
The first time Ye Qinglan was mentioned, Cui Yu always listened with special concentration. He didn't think much about it at the time, but now he understood...
It turned out that Cui Yu actually liked Ye Qinglan, so he deliberately approached him.
When did this happen?
Ye Yuanzhou secretly clenched his fists, his heart felt sour, astringent, jealous and hateful, all kinds of complex feelings intertwined together, his chest was tight and short of breath, and he could hardly open his mouth to speak.
Cui Yu was immersed in the excitement of seeing Ye Qinglan again, and did not notice the strange expressions of everyone present. However, Ye Qinglan used the corner of her eye to see everyone's reactions. Especially the complicated look in Ye Yuanzhou's eyes made her secretly frightened.
.
Ye Qinglan adjusted her facial expression without leaving any trace, trying to appear polite and distant: "Brother Cui Shi studies in the Imperial College every day, and he hasn't come to visit his cousin-in-law for a long time."
Cui Yu didn't understand Ye Qinglan's painstaking efforts at all, and said with a naive smile: "That's right. The last time I saw you was when you went to Cui Mansion with your eldest sister after the results were released. It's been exactly one hundred days since then."
...Please be smart and look at the faces of the people around you!
Ye Qinglan only felt a dull pain in her head. It didn't matter if she said this in front of Cui Wan or Ye Qingning, but this was the Hefeng Courtyard, and the thoughtful Xue and Ye Yuanzhou were both there. Cui Yu's admiration was written all over his face.
, who can't see it? She simply didn't have the courage to look at their faces.
Ye Qingfu's sour voice sounded in the hall: "Brother Cui Shi seems to be very familiar with Third Sister!"
Cui Yu smiled shyly: "Yeah." After answering, he felt that his answer was too direct and not subtle enough, so he quickly added: "It's not too familiar. Except for those who came to live in the house last time.
We see each other every day, and rarely see each other at other times."
Ye Qinglan: "..."
Xue glanced at Ye Qinglan with a half-smile: "Oh? It seems that Sister Lan was recuperating in the house last year, and she made some friends." He emphasized the last two words intentionally or unintentionally.
Ye Qinglan had to explain tactfully: "Because I am familiar with my cousin, I have met Cui Shixiong a few times." Lest Cui Yu talk too much, she winked at him quietly.
Cui Yu finally noticed something was wrong.
Ye Qinglan... doesn't seem to be liked by her aunt, and even her brothers and sisters are not very warm to her. Her wishful thinking seems to have caused her trouble...
He was always clumsy and tongue-tied. He couldn't even read people's faces and speak. He brought her trouble again...
After Cui Yu figured this out, he was ashamed and remorseful, but he didn't dare to speak casually anymore, and sat back down again. When he looked up, he found that the handsome face of Ye Yuanzhou opposite him was gloomy and without a smile.
Cui Yu's heart felt cold again. As a concubine, Ye Qinglan's life in the third room must have been very difficult. She just said a few words to him. How come even her brother looked so sinister?
No one spoke in the hall for a moment, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward and stagnant.
From the corner of her eye, Mrs.
It was not yet midnight, and it was still very early for lunch. What Xue said was actually a disguised form of expelling guests.
Although Cui Yu was not very knowledgeable about the world, he could still understand his voice. He had to cheer up and said with a smile: "No, I'm accompanying my mother to visit my eldest sister. I stopped by to see Yuanzhou. It's getting late, so I should."
Go back. Otherwise, my mother and eldest sister should be worried. I will take my leave now." After saying that, he stood up and handed over his hands.
Ye Yuanzhou's reaction was slow for a moment, then he stood up and forced a smile: "I'll give you a ride."
Cui Yu smiled and nodded, reluctantly glanced at Ye Qinglan before leaving.
Seeing Cui Yu leave, Ye Qinglan was relieved at first, but when she saw Ye Yuanzhou sending Cui Yu out, she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. Ye Yuanzhou was paranoid and had an almost pathological admiration and persistence for her. Now she knew that Cui Yu liked her
She must have lost her affection for Cui Yu.
In full view of the public, Ye Yuanzhou shouldn't lose his composure or say anything he shouldn't say...
Mrs.
My dear friend, even our third bedroom has been ruined by you."
These words were very harsh and unpleasant to hear.
A flash of anger quickly flashed in Ye Qinglan's eyes, and she responded calmly: "Please calm down, mother, and listen to my daughter's explanation. Although Brother Cui Shi and I know each other, we have not communicated in private. Every time we meet, the sixth sister is present. Mother
If you don’t believe it, just ask Sixth Sister and you will know.”
Mrs.
"Since the mother doesn't believe her daughter, there is really nothing she can do." Ye Qinglan suppressed her smile and said with an indifferent expression: "A person who is clean will be clean. My daughter asks herself that she has not done anything she shouldn't have done, and she has a clear conscience!"
What a clear conscience! Ms.
It's good to have some thoughts. From now on, your father and I will make the decision for you."
Ye Qinglan smiled slightly and counterattacked with a hint of prickliness: "Mother has always loved her daughter, so she will naturally choose a good marriage for her daughter in the future. My daughter knows this very well and has never bothered about it."
Xue was choked, her eyes flashing with anger.
Ye Qinglan seemed to be standing in front of Mrs.
There was peace on the surface, but ever since Ye Yuanzhou failed Qiu Wei in the exam and returned to the capital, Mrs. Xue had completely hated her. At this time, she barely suppressed it, just to hinder Ye Chengli and Ye Yuanzhou. After the New Year, Ye Chengli returned to Zhengzhou.
Ye Yuanzhou has also returned to the Imperial College. It would be strange for Xue not to use his hands to deal with him.
In this case, why should she act submissive and respectful? Anyway, there will be a fierce battle between her and Xue sooner or later!
On the surface, it seems that she is at a disadvantage because of her status. However, it is not easy for Xue to let go of herself and deal with her. With Ye Qingning as a backer and Zheng as a big tree, Xue
Even if you want to treat her harshly, you have to think carefully...
Ye Qingfu did not expect that Ye Qinglan would have the courage to argue with Xue, and glared at Ye Qinglan angrily: "You are really courageous, how dare you talk back to your mother."
Ye Qinglan never took the impulsive and irritable Ye Qingfu seriously, and said lightly: "Second sister really wronged me by saying this. I have always respected my mother, how dare I talk back to her. But second sister,
From now on, think more about what you say and do, so as not to bother your mother all the time."
In terms of words, Ye Qingfu is no match for Ye Qinglan. She was so angry after just two sentences: "You are talking nonsense! When did I bother my mother..."
"Okay, stop arguing!" Ms. Xue was upset, and she was even more upset when she heard the two of them bickering: "Go back to the room and stay there."
Ye Qingfu glared at Ye Qinglan hatefully and walked away angrily.
Ye Qinglan calmly said, "My daughter has resigned." Under Xue's unkind eyes, Shi Shiran left.
Mrs. Xue looked at Ye Qinglan's graceful figure with a chill in her eyes. This girl was simply a thorn in her side. One day, she would have to remove this thorn...
Ye Yuanzhou silently sent Cui Yu out of Hefengyuan. Hefengyuan was not close to Qinfangyuan. After walking for a short distance, Cui Yu broke the silence calmly: "Brother Ye, don't be angry with me. I was actually
I've always wanted to tell you that Sister Shi and I know each other, but I just don't know how to tell you."
As an elder brother, he would probably not be happy to see another man admiring his sister and going out of his way to get close to him. Therefore, it was inevitable that Ye Yuanzhou would be a little unhappy.
Ye Yuanzhou paused, a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes, but a smile appeared on his lips: "I'm not angry, I'm just a little surprised, and I didn't react for a while."
Cui Yu has been an honest child since he was a child. Hearing what Ye Yuanzhou said, he immediately felt relieved and smiled a little shyly: "As long as you don't get angry." It's better not to offend my future uncle.
Ye Yuanzhou's eyes flashed, but he smiled and said: "I ask you today, and you have to answer me honestly. Do you like Third Sister?"
Cui Yu didn't expect that he asked so directly, and his face immediately turned red. He hesitated for a moment, and then nodded honestly.
Ye Yuanzhou could hardly stop laughing. The anger and jealousy in his heart almost overwhelmed him, and his expression was changing.
Seeing that he remained silent, Cui Yu explained a little nervously: "Don't get me wrong, although I have my heart for her, I have always treated her with courtesy and never got along with her in private..."
Ye Yuanzhou's face looked a little better. But when he heard the next sentence, his heart dropped: "...Except for that one time." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation.
