Chapter 244: 244 looks down on girls Chapter 244: 244 looks down on girls Looking at Ye Jiu, Ye Qinghua didn’t know if it was her own illusion, “Auntie, I’ve noticed your face seems a bit whiter.”
“Really? That’s really great.” Ye Jiu immediately burst into smiles.
Ye Qinghua was also happy, but her happiness was for Ye Jiu.
“Where shall we go?” Ye Qinghua asked.
Ye Jiu just wanted to walk around aimlessly and had actually not thought about where to go, so she asked, “Where do you want to go?”
Due to her health, Ye Jiu didn’t have many friends or playmates in the village, and even after getting better, there were constant matters to handle, so even now, aside from her family members, she had nobody to talk to.
Ye Qinghua obviously knew this and, without being modest, said, “Let’s go to Caixia’s place. There are always people over there, and it would be great for Auntie to meet some folks to hang out with.”
“Alright, let’s go.” Ye Jiu didn’t expose Ye Qinghua’s intention of showing off on purpose; instead, she found it amusing.
Indeed a little girl, always loving to compare everything.
Unfortunately, although her physical age was not as much as Ye Qinghua’s, her mental age had long surpassed these little girls.
Caixia is the Clan Leader’s daughter; according to seniority, she should actually call her Auntie. Ye Jiu’s standing in the Ye Family was really quite significant.
When they arrived at the Clan Leader’s house, the Clan Leader was in the courtyard fiddling with peanuts. Ye Jiu came forward and politely said, “Clan Leader, you are working here!”
“Oh, you’ve come to find Caixia to play, right? She’s inside embroidering a handkerchief. Go ahead,” the Clan Leader looked up and said politely, “It’s not really work, just selecting some peanut seeds.”
Ye Jiu looked at the Clan Leader and suddenly had an idea.
Turning to look at Ye Qinghua, Ye Jiu said, “You go find Caixia to play first.”
“Auntie, you…” Ye Qinghua hesitated to speak.
“I need to have a word with the Clan Leader.” Ye Jiu replied.
Ye Qinghua frowned, not understanding what Ye Jiu and the Clan Leader could have to talk about.
After all, the Clan Leader managed the entire Ye clan and naturally carried an aura of authority.
She usually avoided the Clan Leader when she came over, let alone approached him voluntarily.
Under Ye Jiu’s calm gaze, Ye Qinghua entered the house full of questions.
As soon as Ye Qinghua had left, the Clan Leader put down the peanut seeds he was holding, stood up and asked, “Is there something you want to talk to me about, sister Xiaojiu?”
“It’s not a major issue; it’s just that our family has recently divided its household, and the house is quite cramped, so I thought of asking the Clan Leader to allocate some land for building a house,” Ye Jiu said.
“This matter… Why haven’t I heard Uncle Cheng mention it?” the Clan Leader asked doubtfully.
“We just planned this, and then these past few days, so many things happened that we haven’t had the chance to mention it,” Ye Jiu smiled, knowing that the Clan Leader was wary of a child’s nonsensical talk, so she added, “I just took this opportunity to mention it to you, and we’ll let my father come over tonight to discuss this with you.”
“That sounds fine, building a house is a big matter, and it would be good for Uncle Cheng to come over so we can have a proper chat,” the Clan Leader instantly said with a warm laugh.
With a smile on her face, Ye Jiu thought to herself, “MMP.”
Indeed, no matter where she went, her identity as a young girl made her words seem ineffective.
Due to the Clan Leader’s attitude, Ye Jiu’s original plan had to be put on hold, and she would discuss it with her family members later, having Old Man Ye come over to talk about it.
When Ye Jiu went to find Ye Qinghua, the little girl was already showing off in the house.
