Ye Jiming said: "Your father, I asked him to go back to City B first."
Ye Hehuan stood in the corridor of the stairs, slowly holding the mobile phone next to her ear. She didn't think Ye Jiming's attitude was acquiescence, maybe she just didn't want to make the matter bigger. Behind her and Yu Zhongxiao, the faces of at least three families were involved. Ye He Huan's voice lowered: "I always thought grandpa could understand the decision I made."
"You go back to City B first. We'll talk about other things when you come back." This was the only thing Ye Jiming said before hanging up the phone.
…………
City B, Ye Family Courtyard.
Ye Jiming was lying on the wicker chair. He handed the phone to Ye Zhimin next to him. He said nothing more and closed his eyes to rest.
"Dad..." Ye Zhimin called softly.
Ye Jiming didn't respond, as if he really fell asleep.
Ye Zhiming looked at her father like this, and it was fake that she wasn't worried. She thought that if she told her father everything, he would express his attitude, but she didn't want to hear what she said, "Yan Yan is actually He Huan's child." Without even wiggling his gray eyebrows, he drank the remaining half of the bowl of porridge.
When Ye Jiming said he wanted to call He Huan, she thought her father was planning a showdown, but Ye Jiming didn't mention it at all.
Suddenly, Ye Zhimin felt that he could not understand his father's thoughts.
After a long time, Ye Jiming opened his eyes and said leisurely: "Do you think I should help them?"
Ye Zhimin suddenly told Ye Jiming what she had hidden for many years, naturally she had this idea in mind. In the past two days, Ye Zanwen had not discussed He Huan's matter with her. In the past, she might have had the same attitude as her brother, but He Huan and that person After having a child, Ye Zhimin's heart softened when she thought of Yan Yan's lively and cute appearance. She still remembered the conversation with Yu Zhongxiao in the restaurant that day. He said that if he had to choose between the child and He Huan, he would go with joyous.
"Actually, apart from that relationship, I think that person really cares about He Huan."
Ye Jiming glanced at her, but Ye Zhimin continued: "Who doesn't talk behind others' backs, and who doesn't talk behind others' backs? Besides, it's a normal divorce for He Huan's aunt, and He Huan's attitude, dad, you didn't do it that day either I saw it, and if she keeps objecting, I’m afraid she--"
"What can she do?" Ye Jiming frowned: "Is she still planning to give up her family for a man?"
Ye Zhimin was silent, but said in his heart, your granddaughter can really do this.
Ye Jiming closed his eyes again and swayed against the wicker chair, "Minjing did the right thing. Huanhuan is still a child who has not grown up. If she is asked to take care of Yan Yan, this child will only live in someone else's world. Amid the strange looks and comments, she can withstand those insulting criticisms, but that doesn't mean her children can too."
Ye Zhimin asked: "Dad, you..."
"I have my own sense of discretion in this matter."
At this moment, the door of the room opened, and Lu Hanyan ran out. The little girl was holding a bottle of lactic acid bacteria drink in her hand. She was about to go next door to play with her friends. She was stopped by Ye Zhimin after she took two steps. Ye Zhimin frowned: "I drank at home, why did I drink again here? Didn't I agree to only drink one bottle a day?"
Lu Hanyan stuck out his tongue, "Huanhuan is not here, this will expire if you don't drink it..."
"Do you want to go to the hospital again?"
"I didn't say I drank it myself," Lu Hanyan tried to defend. When he saw Mr. Ye in the yard, he immediately came over and turned to look at Ye Zhimin who was training him. He said, "I took it out for grandpa to drink."
Ye Jiming looked at the smart child with a smile on his face, took the bottle and asked: "Did you really give it to grandpa?"
Lu Hanyan nodded repeatedly and said flatteringly: "Grandpa, let me unscrew it for you. Take this out of the refrigerator. It's best to drink it right away, because there are active lactic acid bacteria in it..."
Ye Zhimin looked at the child who spoke so eloquently and couldn't laugh or cry. No one taught Yan Yan these things, but this child knew everything.
Passing the opened drink to his grandfather, Lu Hanyan reported his whereabouts to his mother: "Mom, then I went to Xiaohui's house to play."
Ye Zhimin looked at the child jumping away and couldn't help but chattered to his father: "This child looks introverted, but in fact he is very naughty. Sometimes what he says makes me and Qiming startled. His cleverness is also
I don’t know who I followed.”
"Huanhuan was like this when he was little!" Ye Jiming remained calm.
Ye Zhimin smiled and said yes.
Looking at the bottle of drink in his hand, the old man looked a little emotional, "In my lifetime, four generations will live under one roof. I thought the Ye family would not have such a blessing."
————The dividing line of the finale——————
Before going to the hospital, Ye Hehuan drove around the city.
Seeing the supermarket not far away, she remembered that Yu Zhongxiao had said that comrades would come to visit the patient in the morning. She stopped to buy fruit and pushed the shopping cart. She called Yu Zhongxiao and asked Yu Zhongxiao if there would be any wives or girlfriends of his comrades with him.
In the past, Yu Zhongxiao couldn't explain clearly and asked her what was wrong.
"It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of asking." Ye Hehuan's eyes wandered to the goods shelves.
After making the call, she thought about it and put a lot of snacks in the shopping cart.
…………
Ye Hehuan parked her car in the parking lot of the hospital. It was almost 9 a.m., and she entered the inpatient building with two large bags in the back seat of the car.
This is not the first time she has met Yu Zhongxiao's friend, but every time they meet, Ye Hehuan feels inexplicably nervous. Perhaps because of the age gap, she is always worried that she will not get along.
After entering his circle of friends, before the elevator door opened, she took a look in the elevator mirror to make sure her makeup was on and her hair was not messed up before she went out safely.
Walking to the door, Ye Hehuan didn't hear the laughter, but the ward door suddenly opened from the inside.
She looked up and saw Yu Zhongxiao.
Yu Zhongxiao was not wearing a hospital gown, a black vest and light gray trousers. Such a traditional combination always reminded Ye Hehuan of the word tough. Yu Zhongxiao seemed to have guessed that she had arrived, so he came to open the door. His deep expression
His eyes fell on her, without any surprise, but when he saw the things in her hand, he asked: "Why did you buy so many?"
Ye Hehuan didn't answer and asked: "Didn't you say that some comrades came to see you?"
Yu Zhongxiao glanced at the things in the bag, plums, French fries, and Pretz, which were all snacks that little girls liked.
He suddenly understood the reason why Ye Hehuan called before, and his eyes fell on her face again. Seeing her confused expression, Yu Zhongxiao raised his thin lips slightly, and his heart felt like it was filled with something warm, and his voice was very low.
: "Then I can't finish eating these."
“It won’t expire, so you can keep it for yourself.”
When he said this, Ye Hehuan found that there was no one else in the ward.
Yu Zhongxiao saw her confusion and explained: "I asked them to come over later." He held her hand holding the shopping bag and said, "Give me the bag."
Ye Hehuan was afraid that he would affect the wound on his right arm, but Yu Zhongxiao said he would not.
The two bags were placed on the sofa. Ye Hehuan opened the mouth of the bag and leaned over to look for a fruit peeler, "Why is there no fruit peeler? I obviously bought it..."
I was so absorbed in searching that I temporarily ignored the other person in the room.
Ye Hehuan found a fruit peeler under the bag.
She raised her head and found that Yu Zhongxiao was leaning on the bedside table and looking at her with very focused eyes. Seeing her looking over, he smiled faintly and said, "Put on makeup."
"Um."
Ye Hehuan stood up straight and nodded: "I applied some BB cream."
Although his face looked normal, there was still a hint of shyness in his heart.
Yu Zhongxiao's deep gaze did not move away from her face, but it was gentler than before. Ye Hehuan took the initiative to walk over, raised his arms and put his arms around his neck, and came close to his ear in a semi-playful manner: "Tonight
I'll stay here for the night."
After saying that, she kissed his chin again.
Yu Zhongxiao lowered his head and stared at her, with a faint smile on his lips, and then his eyes were covered by a soft and thin hand.
Ye Hehuan muttered: "It's so beautiful and misleading!"
Yu Zhongxiao: "..."
————
On this day, the comrades who came to visit Yu Zhongxiao were a group of pure men. When they saw Ye Hehuan coming out of the bathroom carrying washed fruits, the original playful sound disappeared, but he immediately shouted with a look: "Hello, sister-in-law!"
Being called sister-in-law respectfully by an older man, Ye Hehuan didn't know whether he should respond or not, so he simply turned to look at Yu Zhongxiao.
Yu Zhongxiao's expression remained unchanged, apparently acquiescing to what others called her, without explaining, and just invited them to sit in the room.
Ye Hehuan was a little surprised when he found out that the person walking at the end was Zhao Xun.
After all, the last dinner party was unpleasant.
But she didn't show this surprise on her face.
Because Ye Hehuan was present, a group of senior men couldn't let go. They were wary of the words they spoke, for fear of causing the only woman in the ward to frown.
Seeing their discomfort, Ye Hehuan found an excuse to leave the ward temporarily: "I'll go to the convenience clinic to get some isatis root."
Yu Zhongxiao raised his head and looked at her with dark eyes: "Have you caught a cold?"
When he asked, everyone else stopped chatting and turned to look at Ye Hehuan.
"...No, I just bought it and kept it at home for prevention."
After coming out of the ward, Ye Hehuan's cheeks were still a little hot. She raised her hands to cover her face, and then took her medical insurance card to the convenience clinic. In addition to isatis root, she also asked the doctor to prescribe several household medicines. After taking them
After taking medicine, she sat in the waiting area on the first floor of the outpatient department for a while.
Feeling that time was almost up, Ye Hehuan took the medicine bag and headed to the inpatient building.
As a result, I met Lao Zhao at the door of the inpatient building.
Zhao Xun was actually waiting for her on purpose. He came out on the pretext of answering the phone. After hanging up the phone, he remembered something, so he waited for Ye Hehuan here.
That day when he was going back from Lao Liang's house, he woke up from drunkenness on the way, or in other words, woke up from his own indignation. His wife kept telling him all the way, it was nothing more than other people liking carrots and greens and asking you to worry about it. She didn't read it.
Is Chief of Staff Chu Yu holding people in his hands and doting on them in his heart? You are still there to act as a stir-up stick, for fear that people will not remember you in their hearts!
After hearing this, Zhao Xun's temples started to beat suddenly, and his head also felt severe swelling and pain.
But he still didn't feel that he was at fault. He was dissatisfied with Ye Hehuan from the bottom of his heart. He knew that his partner was engaged in a high-risk job, but he still chose that time to make a phone call. What else could he do if he was not seeking death? Such a woman could harm such a woman.
Yu Zhongxiao once, there will be a second time in the future!
It wasn't until he met Yao Lie later that he learned some things from Yao Lie that Yu Zhongxiao had not told him.
When Yao Lie said that He Huan was pregnant with his second brother's child for seven months, and later induced labor, Zhao Xun was stunned. This was obviously contrary to the plot he thought. Yao Lie said that his wife had only recently let go of this.
The second brother didn't tell him, probably because he wanted to protect He Huan and didn't want her to be criticized by others.
At the age of nineteen, I have a child from my former uncle. If I speak out, I may not win sympathy, but I will be labeled as degenerate and deserve it.
Therefore, Yu Zhongxiao chose not to say anything.
…………
"What happened that night was because I drank too much and talked nonsense. Don't take it to heart."
Hearing Lao Zhao touching the back of his neck and apologizing to himself unnaturally, Ye Hehuan was also a little embarrassed. It was impossible for her to say that she had no grudges about what happened at the dinner table, but now that she had said it, she also
He didn't hold on to her anymore: "I know you are doing it for his own good, and you are right. It is indeed because of me that he gets hurt."
Before, when hearing what Ye Hehuan said, Lao Zhao felt that she was really self-aware, but now, he had mixed feelings in his heart and didn't know how to answer the question.
Ye Hehuan looked calm. She looked at the elevator and said, "The elevator is here, let's get on."
Zhao Xun stopped her again.
Hearing the sound, Ye Hehuan turned around to look at him.
"Some words...you may think I'm long-winded, and it's not my turn to say it." Facing a girl who was more than ten years younger than himself, Zhao Xun felt indescribably weird, but he still insisted on finishing the sentence: "
People like Yu Zhongxiao, who comes from a family like that, live a less happy and comfortable life than ordinary people like us. They are often constrained by rules and regulations in doing things. Although I have only known him for a few years, I admire him very much and know what kind of character he is. Among you,
I don’t know what happened during the period. Now that you are back and you are with him again, I will say one more thing and hope you will stay with him well in the future."
Ye Hehuan couldn't help but squeeze the hand holding the medicine bag.
"Perhaps you are young and cannot understand the thoughts of us soldiers. Compared with adventure, what we want is actually quite simple. Do you think it is very tacky to have a wife and children on the hot bed?" As he said this, Zhao Xun laughed at himself.
laugh.
But Ye Hehuan heard the true feelings in his words, and she thought to herself that what Yu Zhongxiao wanted was simpler than this.
Zhao Xun may be waiting for her reply.
Ye Hehuan turned her head slightly. She did not look at Zhao Xun. Her eyes fell over his shoulder on the red flag fluttering in the wind in front of the clinic building under the scorching sun.
She thought of the file bag hidden in the bedroom drawer.
The lowered eyelashes fluttered, and then he raised his eyes to look at Zhao Xun. Ye Hehuan said, "I understand what you said, let's go upstairs."
——————
In the end, Zhao Xun did not go upstairs with Ye Hehuan. He went to the small supermarket in front of the hospital to buy cigarettes.
The elevator stopped on the eighth floor.
Ye Hehuan waited quietly. When the elevator door opened, she came out and was about to go to the ward. However, she paused when she saw Mrs. Yu standing outside the elevator. The old lady was wearing an off-white shirt skirt.
Chanel's new model for this summer. Standing next to it was a middle-aged aunt. Ye Hehuan remembered that this was a housekeeping aunt from the Yu family.
Judging from the posture of old lady Yu, she seemed to be waiting for someone.
Ye Hehuan wanted to pretend she didn't see her and walk away, but she felt it was rude and would be embarrassed if she met her in the future. But if she went up to say hello directly, she couldn't find a suitable identity and was afraid that the old lady would misunderstand that she was deliberately trying to please her.
When he was undecided, Mrs. Yu cleared her throat. Aunt Zhang on the side had already stepped forward and said to Ye Hehuan in a friendly manner: "Old lady, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
wait for me?
Ye Hehuan tapped himself with his finger.
Aunt Zhang smiled and nodded, glanced at the medicine in Ye Hehuan's hand, and asked with concern: "Are you feeling well?"
"No, it's a spare one at home." Ye Hehuan also smiled at his aunt.
Mrs. Yu, who was ignored next to her, pursed her lips in dissatisfaction. Aunt Zhang stopped being polite and explained her purpose to Ye Hehuan: "Madam, I have something to tell you."
Ye Hehuan guessed in his heart that he didn't know what the old lady knew, but one thing was certain. The old lady had recognized that she was the 'girlfriend' that Yu Zhongxiao brought home a few years ago. Otherwise, it would be impossible to show such behavior to her.
Look like 'you are such a heartless woman'.
The elevator opens on the eighth floor and goes down to the first floor.
Mrs. Yu went in first with her bag on her arm, and Aunt Zhang explained carefully: "My wife has already made a reservation at the tea restaurant next door."
Ye Hehuan nodded. Although she didn't know what the old lady was going to say, she went anyway.
