Chapter 970: Chapter 970: Dissatisfaction
However, if this mistake is pinned on Qingyue, just dealing with Madam Zhao would already be tough enough. Even if the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the main house don’t say anything, the bla in their hearts will undoubtedly be plentiful.
In the future, the road for Qingyue in this family would be fraught with difficulties.
The fourth brother is soone who would rather wrong himself than wrong others. He can imagine how Ye Gaosheng and Qingyue would feel guilty because of this matter and constantly give way in the family.
If the fourth brother wasn’t so sincere and genuinely held her in his heart, Ye Jiu wouldn’t be saying so much here.
“No matter who drags whom down, or whose fault it is, as long as mother is fine, that’s good. I’m here, so hurry and spend more ti with mother. Only with you there, she can be at ease.” Ye Gaosheng said.
“Alright, I’ll head out now, and conveniently ask soone to invite Qing Li.” Ye Jiu replied.
After Ye Jiu went out, he instructed the servants to invite Qing Li and returned to Madam He’s place.
Before even entering the door, he heard a clatter of voices.
It was obvious that it couldn’t be Madam Zhang, so it was definitely Madam Zhao.
Ye Jiu walked in, dissatisfied, and spoke to Madam Zhao, “Second sister-in-law, don’t you know that mother just ca back, is very tired, and needs peace and quiet?”
But Madam Zhao seed as if she didn’t understand Ye Jiu’s words. As soon as she saw Ye Jiu co in, she felt more emboldened, “Little sister, you ca at the right ti. I’m just telling mother about what happened last night. You might as well listen too, save you from thinking all day that Qingyue is the best. Look at the trouble she’s brought to the family!”
Ye Jiu also had grievances in his heart and simply sat beside Madam He, saying, “Alright, today I’ll listen properly. What exactly are the complaints in second sister-in-law’s heart? Just say them all at once, let’s resolve them properly.”
Over the years, even though the second branch wasn’t particularly wealthy, they didn’t have to worry about food and drink.
The capital city isn’t like a small town. Here, they don’t have the ability to do business.
Fortunately, using Ye Jiu’s na, both the main house and the second house have set up shops. Plus, most household expenses are covered by the fourth house, so their lives are average at worst.
If it weren’t for hearing Madam Zhao’s words today, she really wouldn’t know that Madam Zhao had such strong opinions against the fourth house.
Upon hearing Ye Jiu’s words, Madam Zhao wasn’t uneasy at all. Instead, she started listing things one by one, “So things, even if I don’t say them, everyone knows in their hearts. Originally, the position of the Marquis, even if it didn’t fall on father, there’s your eldest brother and second brother above, it shouldn’t have fallen onto the fourth brother anyway.”
This matter was already ntioned back when they hadn’t yet co to the capital city. The royal decree was given by the Emperor himself, if anyone was dissatisfied, they should go tell the Emperor.
Clearly, seeking out the Emperor is not sothing we commoners would dare to do.
So, Madam Zhao also knew that her words were hollow, and she wasn’t seeking any results, just expressing what she felt was the truth to everyone.
Certainly can’t let all the good things fall to the fourth house, treating the second house as if it didn’t exist.
Then, Madam Zhao continued, “Those are old grievances, we won’t ntion them. We, as elder brother and sister-in-law, don’t mind bearing so losses, and usually, mother’s heart is inclined towards the fourth house. We won’t ntion these, but last night’s events concern the life and death of our entire Ye Family. Surely, we can’t let this be brushed over so vaguely, right?”
