The He family was initially just apprehensive, but after a few words from Ye Jiu, they finally decided to go to the capital city together with their daughter. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵✶𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮✶𝓷𝓮𝓽
Ultimately, they couldn't bear to be apart from her!
That night, when Ye Laohan returned, He Shi asked, "How did it go? Did you talk to the Clan Leader?"
"I did, I did. The Clan Leader insisted that the clan cover the expenses, but I didn't agree," said Ye Laohan.
Only then did He Shi feel at ease.
After Ye Jiu learned about what He Shi and Ye Laohan discussed, she felt deeply moved.
At this moment, whether she was their biological child or not, it actually no longer mattered.
Because, whether biological or adopted, she had already secured an irreplaceable position in the hearts of Ye Laohan and his wife.
The couple of the main branch also talked at night. Initially, Zhang Shi was displeased about Ye Gaosheng receiving the reward, but after listening to He Shi's words, her mindset completely shifted.
The current lifestyle was already more than she could wish for, and her mother had promised not to abandon them when heading to the capital city.
In summary, in the future, as long as they make no mistakes, that would be enough.
Besides, Ye Gaoshi was originally a country man, even being a Marquis could cause trouble with socializing in the capital city. As it stands now, it's better this way. The fourth one received benefits, but likewise, he must also face the risks of dealing with those officials in the future.
As for the second branch, Ye Gaoshui, aside from initial dissatisfaction, has now come to terms, realizing that regardless of who the reward falls upon, in the end, it'll never be his to inherit.
However, Zhao Shi couldn't help but grumble, though her words in the Ye Family were always dispensable, so nobody paid her any attention at all.
The next day, the couple, Ye Daya, along with the He family, who had been estranged for several years, and even those distant relatives, all showed up to offer congratulations.
To He Shi, the couple Ye Daya were not capable of causing any harm to her. Once, she disregarded these two, and now, she sees even less of a reason to regard them in any significant way.
As for the He family, He Shi's parents and brothers were already long gone. Those who came were merely the younger generation of the He family. Once, He Shi thought her resentment towards the He family would never fade in this lifetime, but at this moment, she realized that even if the He family stood before her again, they would fail to stir any waves in her heart.
Especially when faced with their bending, fawning stances, He Shi found it amusing.
Unsure if her parents and elder brother and sister-in-law could see from heaven, how high and mighty they once were before her, and now, how lowly their descendants were before her.
The ancients said, "Three decades the east of the river, thirty years to the west of the river," and indeed, it wasn't without reason.
He Shi did not deliberately make things difficult for them, simply instructed someone to send them away.
Grudges have a source, debts have a debtor; what her parents and sibling owed her, she'll personally collect when she reaches the afterlife.
Ye Gaoyun and his wife arrived in the afternoon because over the past two days, the Concubine of the Yan family had been causing trouble again. Yan Shi returned to accompany her mother, leaving Ye Gaoyun, who couldn't care for the children alone, with no choice but to bring them along, thus receiving the news rather late.
Ye Jiu found an opportunity to whisper with Ye Gaoyun for a long time, and even on his way back, Ye Gaoyun remained absent-minded.
No matter the circumstances or who had opinions, or who was sincere or insincere, for Ye Jiu, it all no longer mattered.
The Ye clan hosted a continuous feast for three days, hiring more than ten chefs from a well-known restaurant in the town, with help from local women. No matter who it was, as long as they came, they were guests, and there was a meal for them, making the event a joy for both hosts and visitors.
