"Really?"
"Really, so many people like Hua Hua, we wonât leave."
"Okay."
"Then can Hua Hua promise Mom not to tell anyone about this, letâs just keep it a secret between us, okay?"
"Okay, I wonât even tell Sister Xingxing."
When Ye Qing heard her son treating Lin Wanâs daughter as a good friend, her expression darkened, but to keep her son happy, she didnât say anything. She would talk to her son about this later.
After settling her son, Ye Qing went out to buy some fruits and returned to the Mei Family.
In the middle of winter, there arenât many fruits, besides apples, there arenât many delicious ones. Ye Qing worried that Old Mrs. Mei couldnât eat cold ones and was afraid of her teeth not being good, so she steamed the apples in a pot until soft, then scooped out the flesh with a spoon, which tasted quite good.
Ye Qing not only brought a portion to Old Mrs. Mei but also delivered a portion to Mr. Mei.
By the time Mei Langchi returned with Xie Lingzhi, it was already past 11 oâclock.
Ye Qing was the one who cooked lunch today, busy for more than an hour in the kitchen with Aunt Wu.
Old Mrs. Mei had never seen Ye Qing so dedicated to doing anything for the Mei Family members.
She was secretly satisfied with Ye Qingâs performance these past two days and sneaked into Mr. Meiâs study, laughingly said, "See, behave well these days, the foodâs not bad either."
"Mm, as long as thereâs no trouble." Mr. Mei wasnât too concerned about these matters, as long as there was no trouble at home, Ye Qing could do whatever with Langchi managing.
As the elders, itâs not easy for them to intervene too much.
Old Mrs. Mei had a different thought, Ye Qing needed more urges.
Even Xie Lingzhi didnât expect that during these two days while she wasnât home, Ye Qing had done so much, not only buying her clothes but also making soup and cooking meals for her. This made Xie Lingzhi very confused, yet it felt enjoyable.
Confused as to why Ye Qing suddenly became so obedient and virtuous, yet enjoyed the treatment: the feeling of being served by a daughter-in-law.
She had been married into the Mei Family for so many years, serving the old lady for so many years, later when Tao Jia married in, she was very satisfied with the marriage, after all, they were reaching out for someone elseâs daughter, so marrying her in, she was afraid Tao Jia wouldnât get used to it, and all went along with her. Tao Jia was sensible, but since she grew up in a military camp, cooking and household chores were not what she was adept at. There were servants at home, she didnât need to do them. Originally, she was limited in presence at home, only returning a few times after being married for two years.
Later Ye Qing came; although from a small family, she definitely looked down on them. Not to mention anything else, she had never been likable before.
Recently, she intended to trouble Ye Qing, unexpectedly, in the end, after all the trouble she was hospitalized.
Unexpectedly, this time, despite causing trouble, it wasnât without effect; at least Ye Qing had changed.
After lunch, Ye Qing went back together with Mei Langchi. On the road, Mei Langchi drove and glanced at Ye Qing, after a while, he said, "Ye Qing, what do you mean by all of this in the past two days."
"Langchi, I donât mean anything. I suddenly felt that what I did earlier was too excessive; after all, grandma and mom were very kind to Hua Hua, and even though I did so many wrong things before, they didnât drive me out because of those things. I feel that theyâre really good, it was all my own problem. I just figured it out."
Mei Langchi sneered lightly, "Youâd better not make trouble again; this is the last time."
Once Ye Qing heard this, her heart sank; was he going to divorce her?
"Langchi, I know you have issues with me now, but thatâs not my fault. When you went out, I asked you not to divorce, you didnât agree; later you changed your mind yourself, just to bring me and the child over with Han Yi. Now, Iâm not afraid to tell you the truth, it wasnât that I wanted to make trouble, itâs that your grandma and mom treated me like Iâm not a person, so I had to make trouble. But this time, Iâve figured it out: I want to live a good life with you, not for me, but for Hua Hua. At least Hua Hua will have a better future with you all. Langchi, I heard thereâs a private hospital in the city, which we can go to, letâs have our own child."
Right now, she cannot leave the Mei Family; the Mei Family definitely has many things, and with their current attitude toward her, thereâs no way to talk deeply, let alone share heartfelt words.
So she still has to rely on Mei Langchi to stay in the Mei Family. Originally, because of the last incident, Mei Langchi found out, and he was already very disgusted with her, so the only thing that could probably make Mei Langchi move his heart was a child.
Mei Langchiâs eyes darkened, "Ye Qing, I donât want to have a child with you. Itâs best not to make any plans about my family, next year, we will..."
