Chapter 916: Chapter 551: Persuasion/Marriage?/Change_4
"This is more like it." Su Miao quickly stood up and pulled up Luo Ye, "Ye’er, accompany your Aunt for a walk; as a woman gets older, it’s easy to gain weight."
Once outside, Luo Ye took the initiative to say, "Aunt, if there’s anything, just say it directly; with me, there’s no need to be polite."
"Ye’er, I really like your personality. My older sister, she... never satisfied," Su Miao sighed lightly, "Ye’er, your mother-in-law is actually not having an easy time either, don’t blame her."
"I won’t blame her." Luo Ye smiled at her, "Now I understand, Aunt, you’ve talked to her, right? That’s why her attitude towards me has changed so much?"
"Just some casual chat. You see, people only appreciate what they have when they make comparisons." Su Miao led Luo Ye to sit down in the small garden, "Ye’er, my second sister’s personality is a bit... stubborn, which has to do with her upbringing.
My grandma favored boys over girls. When my older sister was born, grandma treated her fairly well, but when my second sister was born, she was disappointed, and grandma’s temperament became extremely peculiar.
To please grandma, my second sister lived a cautious life from an early age, which developed her easily swayed and suspicious nature.
The reason I’m telling you this, Ye’er, is that I hope for fewer conflicts between you and my second sister. Even though she’s starting to work on her relationship with you, her nature is hard to change; what’s ingrained in one’s bones isn’t easily altered.
My second sister has not had an easy life. At her parents’ home, she was in a dispensable position, and when she came to her in-laws, it was an awkward position as well..." Su Miao sighed, stopping there.
Luo Ye thought for a moment, then looked at Su Miao, "Aunt, I understand what you mean. I’m really grateful you told me so frankly; don’t worry, I’ll be considerate of her."
"Thank you." Su Miao took out a small brocade box from her pocket and opened it, "Ye’er, this is a meeting gift from the Su family; don’t despise it."
On the golden silk cloth lay a lustrous Mutton Fat Jade Bracelet, with a lifelike phoenix entwining it. Luo Ye glanced at it and quickly refused, "Aunt, this is too precious, I can’t accept it."
"This isn’t from me. Grandma really likes Xiao Xuan and has long wanted to meet you, but Su Sha’s attitude made it inconvenient for her to say anything.
This jade bracelet was specifically entrusted to me some time ago, saying that if I had a chance to meet Ye’er and felt you’re suitable, I should pass this jade bracelet to Ye’er. As for meeting, just wait for your mother-in-law to personally bring you back. If you don’t want it, just return it yourself."
"Aunt, you’re forcing me into a difficult position." Luo Ye made a bitter face. Such a precious thing being given in this manner is too much, and besides, the Ye Family has already given her the family heirloom jade bracelet. How could she wear one on each hand? That would be too shocking!
"Su Sha is very clear about the implication of this jade bracelet. Ye’er, listen to your Aunt. Just wear this bracelet when you’re at the Ye Family; normally, I won’t interfere with which one you wear."
Got it, so the Old Lady Su was using this jade bracelet to pressure Su Sha. Well, she’s learned something new. Truly learned something new, what kind of day is it today? Why are various strange things happening to her?
Anyway, since she didn’t plan to separate from Ye Xuan, she’d first accept it. Once the bracelet fulfilled its purpose, she’d find a way to return it.
Thinking this way, Luo Ye happily took the bracelet and wore it on her delicate, fair wrist, shaking it: "Aunt, isn’t it beautiful?"
"Of course, it’s beautiful. Our Ye’er would look great with just a string; let alone such a beautiful bracelet." Su Miao said while standing up, "Ye’er, let’s go back."
After the two returned to the hall, Su Sha noticed the bracelet on Luo Ye’s wrist, momentarily stunned, then naturally pulled Luo Ye to sit beside her: "Ye’er, there’s something I need to apologize for to you. Last time I met your mother, I said a lot of nonsense. Please let her know not to take it to heart, and in the future, I will apologize to her personally."
Seated nearby, Ye Jia’an’s body tensed slightly, looking at Su Sha with a much softer gaze. The instigator, Su Miao, quietly breathed a sigh of relief, seeming satisfied with the results of her plan.
Ye Qinghe squeezed in, "Third Aunt, I need to talk to little sister-in-law for a bit."
Su Sha looked at her helplessly, "Xiao He, luckily you’re not a boy, otherwise you’d be fighting your brother for his wife."
"Third Aunt, you never know." Ye Qinghe said while pulling Luo Ye along, "Little sister-in-law, come on, come quick, I have something to tell you."
Ye Qinghe’s whisper was nothing more than her taking a liking to a boy and asking Luo Ye for advice. Looking at the photo of the handsome, sunny boy, Luo Ye paused for a moment, then her expression returned to normal, patting Ye Qinghe’s shoulder: "Not bad, I think this guy is worthy of our beautiful Qinghe!"
She spoke sincerely from the heart.
The boy in the photo she knew, from a past life, where she had been responsible for his protection, and knew he was an upright man, but ultimately...
If Ye Qinghe really wanted to be with him... sigh! Being reborn, it’s hard to tell whether it’s good or bad. When you encounter familiar people and events, you can never avoid them, feeling like a firefighter that’s constantly busy.
...
Early the next morning, Luo Ye and Yu Wenze caught a flight back to Sha City. As they walked out of the cabin door, they saw Handsome Ye waiting below, next to a pretty flight attendant who seemed to have been talking to him all along. Yu Wenze couldn’t help but tease, "Luo Ye, your boyfriend is quite the eye-catcher. I really sympathize with you."
Luo Ye smiled playfully, "Can I take that as a compliment?"
"Such confidence?"
"Indeed."
"..."
As they traded questions and answers, descending the ladder, Ye Xuan quickly came over, ruffling Luo Ye’s hair affectionately: "Tired?" He then turned to Yu Wenze, "Hello, Professor Yu Wen."
"Hello, Major General Ye." Yu Wenze replied while glancing at the flight attendant standing nearby, looking around.
Luo Ye grinned mischievously and leaned to Ye Xuan’s ear: "What did she say to you just now?"
"Not much, she just said she wanted to get to know me, but since I didn’t say anything, she took me for a mute and sighed regretfully."
