256 Don't let me go home
Ye Jihong was not cowardly either, but his opponent was too strong. When he thought of his future in-laws meeting, he began to worry, and his mind was filled with scenes of being crushed.
Ye Taoyao heard this and was helpless and funny, "Dad, why don't you see the world?"
This is not when she just came to study in the imperial capital from her hometown in the countryside. Her mother said that her father never decorates high-end hotels and shopping malls, and even if she was walking around, she couldn't help but show her timidity.
Ye Jihong sighed and shook his head, "You don't understand..."
Ye Taoyao heard this and did not ask. She actually understood, but said it would harm her father's face. In the eyes of those people in his hometown, his father was leaping on the dragon gate and becoming a superior person, but in the eyes of the people in the imperial capital, he had not washed away the mud on his legs. Although he had studied at the best university and had a successful career, the influence of his original family on him was not easily erased. It was a kind of inferiority engraved into his bones and could not be seen in normal times. However, when he met someone who was truly capable and famous, he had no way to hide.
Or the old saying always says that if you want to become a noble, it is necessary for three generations to work hard. Her father is the first generation. Although he is not inferior to the three sisters, he still lacks a foundation and nobility in front of those aristocratic families.
When he was about to get home, Ye Taoyao asked, "Dad, how are you doing now?"
Ye Jihong probably didn't want her to worry, and answered perfunctorily, "It's great, the operation went smoothly, I have been recuperating for a while, and my body has recovered very well. I'm going to go to Hongjia to help me, and I can be more brisk in the future..."
"Does the eldest sister live at home?" Ye Taoyao saw her father avoiding it, so he asked clearly.
Ye Jihong paused, shook his head, and said helplessly, "Your mother and I want her to come back to live, but your grandparents have a lot of opinions and have been nagging for many days. Moreover, your elder sister doesn't want to come back. Now, she lives in her own house. The one I bought for her as a dowry in Ziyuan before the wedding. It's two bedrooms and two living rooms, and living alone is enough..."
Ye Taoyao sneered, "When a woman gets married, she will be criticized for her mother's family, but if she gets divorced, she will be a family. It is not natural to go back to live with her own family? What position does my grandparent have to oppose it? Do they think it is embarrassing? Or do they still disagree with the divorce of my elder sister? Still thinking about not letting go of the Han family?"
"Yaoyao..." Ye Jihong didn't want to say so clearly just now, just knowing that once the matter was torn apart, the younger daughter would definitely be unhappy. "You finally came back, let's not talk about this anymore, okay? When you enter the house later, don't show your grandparents' face. Dad is not forcing you to be filial to them, but in the past two days, I endured it and started to make trouble. Even if Dad doesn't care about their feelings, he still can't bear to suffer from grievances."
"Dad, it's right to take care of the overall situation, but for the sake of this temporary, Ansheng compromises again and again. He just drinks poison to quench his thirst, and it will also encourage them to gain a better position. It's completely unnecessary." Ye Taoyao advised depressedly, "You should take a ruthless move and pick this abscess up once, so that it can completely heal."
Ye Jihong smiled bitterly, "Dad understands what you said and agrees with it, but... Dad can't do it."
"dad……"
"Yaoyao, just like you, even though you know that your mother and I have many shortcomings that you don't agree with, you can't change it, and you will be angry, even resentful and wronged, but can you turn against us cruelly?"
Ye Taoyao choked, and after a moment, he said in annoyance, "That's different. You and your mother sincerely love your children. They adhere to the bottom line of conscience in doing things, but what about them? They are selfish, powerful, vanity and mean, and are biased towards men and women. These things make me hate them, but I have endured them all over the years. In order to fulfill your filial piety and my mother's family harmony, there is one thing I can't stand..."
"What?"
"For the sake of the Ye family's reputation and rights, they ignored the happiness of our sisters. We are the granddaughters of the Ye family, nor are we pawns or commodities."
"Yaoyao..." Ye Jihong's heart was twisted in a mess when he heard it, "No, Dad promised that you are just my daughters and will never become chess pieces or commodities."
"Dad, I believe you, but I don't believe them." Ye Taoyao said calmly, "You can tell from their attitude towards their elder sister. When the eldest sister was the daughter-in-law of the Han family, they treated them as distinguished guests every time they came back. They even agreed and pleased Han Haoyu, who was the scumbag. But now when they divorced, the eldest sister can't even go back to their homes. I want to ask, whose family belongs to this family? Isn't there any share of the three of us sisters?"
"Ye, yes, of course..." Ye Jihong coaxed, "Yaoyao, don't be angry, don't be sad, it's because my father is bad, and I messed up the matter again, it's all my fault..."
As he said that, he lowered his head with guilt and his voice choked.
Seeing this, Ye Taoyao had no heart to poke his pain again, and had to turn his head to comfort him, "Dad, I'm not blaming you, you are right, it's my grandparents who are wrong. They are becoming increasingly confused about their situation. It's natural to provide care for them. I have never opposed it, but I think they should put their position in the right place."
"You are right..." Ye Jihong murmured sourly, "Dad is..."
"You are just too soft-hearted and can't help but be so sluggish, right?"
"Yes, not." Ye Jihong shook his head. The plan he had been thinking about before had made a decision. "Dad knows what to do. It just so happens that this time I will get this done while you come back."
"What's the matter?"
"Let's talk about it tomorrow dad."
...
When he got home, it was already past eleven o'clock. Luo Jiahe arranged a table of food. Finally, when Ye Taoyao came back, he couldn't bear to let go. When he saw her from the beginning, he was afraid that she would suffer in City Z.
"I've lost weight..."
Hearing these two words, Ye Taoyao wanted to roll his eyes, "Mom, am I obviously fatter than before leaving? I have gained at least two pounds."
This is not an exaggeration. Some of the other colleagues are not accustomed to the local environment, and some are not accustomed to the local diet, and most of their weight has been reduced. Only she, under the service of Jiang Zhen’s three meals a day, has gained weight. She is still controlling this. In addition, she does some weight loss exercises before going to bed, otherwise she will be even fatter.
"Mom didn't see it..." Luo Jiahe didn't realize it, and she felt that her daughter was suffering, so she kept picking food for her while eating.
Ye Taoyao couldn't eat anything, so she asked Ye Jingshu for help and asked her to say something fair.
Ye Jingshu smiled with a pursed lips and said to Luo Jiahe, "Mom, Yaoyao is in City Z, with Jiang Zhen caringly taking care of her, but she is not hungry at all. You really don't need to make up for her like this."
