The moment the door opened, the ice and snow on Ye Ming's face melted instantly, and a warm smile hung on his face again. He smiled like a spring breeze at Hua Zhao: "Why are you opening the door? Where is Brother Shen?"
Hua Zhao stared at him, he was trying to hide it from her, which surprised her.
What else does the Ye family have to hide from her?
But she pretended not to notice anything and invited him in with a smile as usual.
"Brother Shen is in the backyard. If you want to find him, just go to the backyard. There is a female guest in the front yard." Hua Zhao said.
"What female guest?" Ye Ming asked curiously. If it was an acquaintance he knew, she would directly say the name.
Hua Zhao thought for a while and revealed to him directly: "Zhou Rui, do you know her? Did mom tell you yesterday?"
"Zhou Rui?" Ye Ming thought for a while and said uncertainly: "The third aunt seems to have a niece named Zhou Rui, is she?"
To him, this name is just two words on a family tree.
"It's her." Hua Zhao said.
"What did mom tell me she did?" Ye Ming asked casually.
"Yesterday, the third aunt brought her to my house and praised her again and again. She is a 22-year-old female college student who has just graduated. She is a teacher. She is also pretty. She happened to have something to do today. She and Ye Jia came to my place. They are in the main room.
Do you want to meet me?" Hua Zhao said.
The two of them were already walking on the corridor. When Ye Ming heard this, he turned around and started on the road to the backyard: "I'm here to see Brother Shen... Don't tell them that I'm here."
After speaking, Hua Zhao walked away in a hurry without waiting for a reply.
He doesn't want to remarry, the marriage is not a good one, and women are troublesome.
Now he has gradually become accustomed to living alone, and feels that every day is easy. Looking back at the past days, he can't understand how he persisted for so long.
Hua Zhao returned to the front yard, and Ye Jia immediately asked: "Who is it? Why do I look like your elder brother?"
"It's your eldest brother, here to find your second brother." Hua Zhao did not lie and told her that the person who came was Ye Ming.
"Oh." Ye Jia had no reaction and continued to study the clothes in his hands.
Zhou Rui's eyes unconsciously glanced towards the backyard, but she quickly looked away and continued cutting in her hands.
I didn’t ask anything, and I had no intention of going to the backyard.
It's quite calm.
Hua Zhao didn't say anything, but pointed out the key points of tailoring the dress in her hand.
In the backyard, Ye Ming was curious about the child for a long time, and then found an opportunity to call Ye Shen out.
"Someone came to inform me that there is an important task to be entrusted to you?" Ye Ming asked softly.
Ye Shen was stunned: "They told you."
Ye Ming stared at him closely: "Did you answer it?"
Ye Shen shook his head: "You said you would let me think about it, but in fact, you know."
How can they refuse the tasks given to them by the superiors? Even if they are asked to go up mountains of swords and seas of fire, they have to go!
It's just that this task is special, and the above words are just for him to be mentally prepared.
Because of the special mission, his family was notified.
Ye Ming asked again: "What specific task is it?"
Ye Shen shook his head: "I can't say."
Ye Ming frowned: "I heard it's very dangerous. I can't contact my family for a few years?"
He is not a novice, he has also been a soldier, and he will probably know what the mission is when he hears these two things. He doesn't want Ye Shen to go, the two children are still so young, Hua Zhao is still pregnant, and he will leave for a few years...
.It’s been a few years!
Some people disappear for more than ten years, decades, or even never come back.
In the end they could only get a cenotaph.
But he also knew the rules. Ye Shen had no right to refuse when he was wearing those clothes. If he dared to refuse, he would be close to taking off his clothes.
Ye Shen touched his chest: "I will come back, I have my home here."
People usually have two homes, one with parents and one with children. Homes with children are particularly concerning.
There is another one of her at home.
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Ye Shen's mouth: "I will come back. This mission is not as serious as you think. If it goes well, I will be able to come back before she is born."
Ye Ming stared at him, patted his shoulder for a long time, and said nothing.
"I'm not at home..."
"Stop!" Ye Ming interrupted him loudly: "You take care of your own home. No one can replace your position. Remember this."
After saying that, his eyes turned a little red, and he turned around not wanting Ye Shen to notice.
He actually knows the content of the mission... and will be back in a few months? How is that possible?
Ye Shen smiled, no matter how long it takes, he will definitely come back!
The more Hua Zhao talks, the more absent-minded he becomes. What is the mission?
"Second sister-in-law, second sister-in-law?" Ye Jia pushed Hua Zhao.
"Ah?" Hua Zhao smiled: "I'm sorry, I got distracted, maybe I'm a little hungry."
She turned around and looked at her watch: "It's dinner time. I'm going to cook. Can you guys eat here at noon?"
Ye Jia did not refuse: "Okay, okay, I always miss my second sister-in-law's cooking! I'm in luck again today!"
Zhou Rui smiled and said nothing, Ye Jia stayed, she naturally stayed.
Hua Zhao felt a little sweet when she saw this smile, but she guessed that her hope would be dashed.
Sure enough, when Hua Zhao went to the backyard to ask Grandpa and Ye Shen what they wanted to eat for lunch, Ye Ming stood up and left regretfully.
If he didn't know about Zhou Rui, he would definitely stay. He is too busy and doesn't have much time to see the children, and even less time to stay for meals. He also misses Hua Zhao's craftsmanship.
But it's not worth the "risk" for a meal.
Ye Shen sent his brother out. The two stood outside the gate, speechless for a long time. Ye Ming patted his shoulder, looked at him deeply, turned and left.
Hua Zhao went to cook, and her performance was a bit inconsistent today. Fortunately, the ingredients were all refined, and Zhou Rui still ate amazingly. No wonder her aunt asked her to learn the craft from Hua Zhao.
It's a pity that Ye Ming did not appear at the dinner table.
Neither did Ye Shen. He had dinner with Hua Qiang in the backyard.
Ye Ming was confused, otherwise he would have thought that there would be no need to sit together to eat.
After the meal, Hua Zhao saw off the guests on the pretext that he had to go out in the afternoon.
She wanted to ask Ye Shen carefully what the mission was.
Ye Jia wanted to leave the clothes here and she would come back tomorrow. Hua Zhao also said that she would not be at home tomorrow because she had something to do, so she asked her to take all the clothes away and ask if she would come back some day. She has not been free recently.
Ye Jia could only leave in anger.
"I don't know if the second sister-in-law is really unavailable or pretending to be unavailable." Ye Jia muttered after leaving the door.
"She must be really out of time. She was very enthusiastic at first, but she suddenly changed into a different person before finishing the meal." Zhou Rui said, "Don't think too much about it."
"Yeah." Ye Jia's face looked much better.
Zhou Rui felt that Hua Zhao just didn't want them to visit her again. After Ye Ming came, she was not so enthusiastic... Did Ye Ming say something?
In the evening, Hua Zhao began to ask Ye Shen in a roundabout way what his future career plans were.
Ye Shen's answer was flawless. Of course, she would be promoted, promoted, and then promoted to become the chief's wife.
"What about the near future? Small goals within one or two years?" Hua Zhao asked casually.
Ye Shen paused for a second, then turned over and said, "Within one year, of course we will see the birth of the third child. Within two years, we will see if there is a fourth child."
Hua Zhao rolled his eyes: "You think I am..."
Her mouth was blocked instantly, and she didn't have time to ask any remaining questions tonight.
