The little ancestor of the family

Chapter 232: Can't Let Her Go Just Because She's Old

"Then mother has to go to the mountains to seek medical treatment, and can only see you once every half a month. Can you hold on?" Seeing that he was talking to her, Ye Xinran simply asked directly.

"Is mom sick?"

When Chen Yan heard this, he suddenly felt that the steamed bun in his hand no longer tasted good.

He put down what he was holding and asked pitifully, "Can mother be alright?"

"Yes!" Ye Xinran replied, "As long as Yan'er is obedient, he can definitely be cured!"

"I'm obedient!"

Chen Yan answered loudly.

Next, Ye Xinran told him in detail that she would be away for a long time, and taught him how to calculate the days by tying knots in ropes.

"As long as there are fifteen knots on it, mom will come back, okay?"

"Then make one today!"

Chen Yan clumsily tied a knot on the rope, then held it up to show Ye Xinran: "Mom, look, there's one!"

"it is good!"

Ye Xinran smiled helplessly yet dotingly.

Now she doesn't think that Chen Yan's acting like a spoiled child is disgusting at all.

On the contrary, I feel that he is just like a child with a naive mind.

A man of great stature, but with a kind heart full of innocence.

After learning how to tie knots, Chen Yan ran to the yard to play alone.

He seems very happy today.

Seeing his brother like this, Chen Yueting became more grateful and admired Ye Xinran.

"I think you're pretty good at coaxing children!" As they stood in the corridor, Chen Yueting said to Ye Xinran with a smile.

Ye Xinran also smiled.

"Maybe it's because there are already three children in the family!"

"You have given birth to three children?" Chen Yueting was surprised.

She looks so young and beautiful, she doesn't look like a mother of three children.

"No!" Ye Xinran knew that she had misunderstood, and explained: "He is my husband's nephew."

"I see!"

Chen Yueting nodded.

She only knew that Ye Xinran's ex-husband had passed away, but she didn't expect there was such a relationship between them.

Just from what Lu Zhiyi said, the husband that Miss Lu originally married was probably just a local villager.

And given her current status, she is actually willing to remain a widow for her husband in his down and out period. The character of this Miss Lu is truly extraordinary.

Ye Xinran had no idea what Chen Yueting was thinking.

She was currently watching what Chen Yan was playing.

What Chen Yan plays is very simple.

He took out a box of chess pieces and used the black and white pieces to make patterns.

Ye Xinran originally thought that he was just posing casually.

But when I looked again after a while, he actually made a flying goose.

"look!"

Ye Xinran pointed it out to Chen Yueting in surprise.

Chen Yueting looked in the direction Ye Xin was pointing and was also shocked by the situation before him.

"Xiao Yan!"

She screamed.

Chen Yan was startled.

He turned around in dissatisfaction, and Chen Yueting quickly squatted down and asked, "What are you doing?"

Chen Yan scratched his head with his hand, then pointed to the sky and said, "Bird!"

"Good! Xiao Yan is so good!"

Chen Yueting burst into tears.

She only remembered that when she was a child, her mother said Xiaoyan was actually a smart child who would draw what he saw.

But after her mother passed away, she never saw Xiaoyan holding a pen. Sometimes when she tentatively put the pen and ink in front of him, he would angrily brush it to the ground with his hand.

She always thought that her brother was spoiled by their father and had long forgotten what their mother had taught him with great difficulty.

I didn’t expect to see hope again today!

Chen Yan didn't understand why his sister was crying. He just turned around, messed up the arranged geese, and arranged them again.

Chen Yueting stood up and looked at Ye Xinran, his face showing both crying and laughing.

Ye Xinran hurriedly comforted her, "Your brother is actually very smart. He will get better and better."

Chen Yueting nodded.

She had never placed her hopes on others like she did now.

At this moment, all she was thinking about was, "It would be great if Miss Lu could become a member of the palace!"

Only after Chen Yan fell asleep from playing too much did Chen Yueting and Ye Xinran leave Fu'an Courtyard.

As soon as the two of them walked out the door, they saw the butler had been waiting there for a long time.

"What's wrong?" Chen Yueting asked.

The housekeeper glanced at Ye Xinran, then lowered his head and replied: "Miss, the maid confessed!

It only took Master Liu San only an incense stick of time for her to confess. "

"Oh? What did you say?" Chen Yueting did not ask what method Liu San used.

Those who are in charge of prisons have many ways to torture people.

Now the butler really didn't dare to speak.

"This……"

He looked at Ye Xinran again.

He indicated that it was not appropriate to say this in front of Ye Xinran.

Chen Yueting knew what he was worried about and said, "Miss Lu is one of us, so you can talk about it!"

The housekeeper then spoke up, "The maid said that it was the old lady of the Marquis' Mansion who sent her here. We have people they bribed in advance, and the two parties cooperated just to send Miss Lu to the prince. Well, we can take this opportunity to marry Miss Lu into the prince's mansion."

The housekeeper muttered to himself as he spoke, wondering what the old lady of the Lu family was thinking to dare to target the young master.

This Miss Lu is also amazing. She didn't become the Crown Prince's consort, but she became the Crown Prince's mother, and is about to become the Princess of Rui.

The truth revealed by the maid was within Ye Xinran's expectations.

"Miss Chen, I'm sorry. I didn't expect that coming to the banquet would cause you so much trouble. I have a favor to ask..."

Chen Yueting shook his head, "Are you trying to plead for Madam Lu now?

I can tell my father, but..."

Ye Xinran: "No, I'm not trying to plead for her. I just wanted to say that I beg the prince to punish her more severely in this matter. You can't let the old lady go just because she is old!"

Chen Yueting was shocked.

But in a moment, he was amused by her words, "Ms. Lu, you are really..." It's so funny.

Yes, it's just so interesting.

She had come into contact with so many ladies in the capital and wives of various mansions, but none of them had ever expressed their disgust for their family members so obviously. Some even compromised all their lives for the sake of their family's reputation.

But what did Miss Lu just say?

Don't let her go just because she's old?

"I feel relieved with Miss Lu's words," said Chen Yueting.

"But if we file a complaint against Madam Lu, the Lu family's reputation will be damaged. Doesn't Miss Lu care?"

Ye Xinran thought for a moment and said, "It would be best if we could preserve the reputation of the Lu family. After all, I still have my mother and brother at home. However, as long as Changqing can smoothly inherit the title of Marquis in the future, my mother and I don't care too much about the rest."

No one has ever been willing to express his plans and ambitions so clearly.

Chen Yueting nodded, "I understand!"

Ye Xinran only cares about Madam Lu and Lu Changqing.

As for the old lady and Lu Tingen and his daughter, they were not within her consideration at all.
