Chapter 818: 208: The Truth!_3 Chapter 818: 208: The Truth!_3 Wang Zhoushi said without speaking, “Do you really think things are that wonderful? Do you think Du Ye could take a fancy to Xiangqin?”
“It doesn’t cost anything to talk about it,” Wang Zhoushi said with a smile. “Xiangqin isn’t ugly, what if Du Ye took a liking to her? Ziqi, I think Du Ye is quite affable and has a good temperant! Try and ntion it to Xiangqin, will you?”
Good temperant?
Affable?
A twitch tugged at the corner of Wang Zeqi’s mouth; if his mother saw the dark side of Du Ye, she probably wouldn’t make such a comnt.
Seeing that Wang Zeqi was silent, Wang Zhoushi beca unhappy, “What’s wrong with you, child? Mum is talking to you! Does Du Ye have a wife or not? Xiangqin is your cousin, and yet you’re not taking this to heart at all!”
Only then did Wang Zeqi react, “Du Ye only has two concubines, no official wife…”
“Concubines?” Wang Zhoushi thought she was hallucinating, “How long has it been since liberation, and your Du Ye actually still has two concubines? Ziqi, are you sure you’re not mistaken?”
Wang Zeqi shook his head, “Du Ye is not a citizen of China, so the laws of China do not apply to him. Not only does he have two concubines, but both of them are strikingly beautiful. Considering Xiangqin’s circumstances, I don’t know if she could even beco the third concubine.”
How could soone with two concubines possibly set his eyes on her niece, Xiangqin?
So Wang Zhoushi didn’t entertain any more wild thoughts.
Continuing, Wang Zhoushi said, “Forget it, Ziqi, let’s pretend I never said anything! However, Du Ye seems so refined and cultured, yet he’s quite a playboy! It’s really surprising that he has two concubines. Does he have any children?”
Wang Zeqi continued, “Du Ye doesn’t have any children at the mont.”
Having two concubines and yet no children.
That’s really strange!
Under normal circumstances, there should be at least dozens of children.
Wang Zhoushi asked, “Is there a problem with Du Ye, in that regard?”
Wang Zeqi touched his nose, “It… it probably isn’t that.”
Wang Zhoushi narrowed her eyes, “I believe it’s definitely sothing wrong with your Du Ye; otherwise, those two concubines wouldn’t be without children.”
Unable to continue the conversation, Wang Zeqi said, “I’m going to help Dad dry the herbal dicine.”
…
When Ni Yang got ho, she happened to et Ni Cuihua and Shangguan Dehui hurrying out.
“Dad, Mum, where are you going?” Ni Yang parked her bike on the side.
Ni Cuihua’s eyes lit up and she imdiately ran over, grabbing Ni Yang’s wrist, “Yangyang, you’re back! Where did you go last night? You kept your Dad and up all night!”
Shangguan Dehui said, “If you had co back any later, your Mum and I would already be at the police station by now.”
If it weren’t for the rule that one cannot report a disappearance until 24 hours have passed, they would have already called the police.
Ni Yang said very apologetically, “I’m sorry, Dad, Mum, for making you worry, I went to my master’s place, got held up with sothing, there’s no phone service up in the mountains, it won’t happen again next ti.”
Shangguan Dehui continued, “It’s fine as long as you’re okay, let’s go inside.”
Ni Yang nodded and followed Shangguan Dehui and Ni Cuihua inside.
Because they didn’t want to worry the old couple, Ni Cuihua and Shangguan Dehui didn’t tell Grandfather Zheng and Grandmother Zheng that Ni Yang had not co ho all night, instead telling them that Ni Yang had gone to a classmate’s house to play.
Little Ni Yun saw Ni Yang returning, and with a ‘swoosh,’ she jumped out of Grandmother Zheng’s arms, “Sister! Sister’s back!”
“Little Yunyun.” Ni Yang picked up Little Ni Yun.
“Chirp chirp, Yangyang!” Duoduo flew in from the window and landed on Ni Yang’s shoulder.
Yangyang?
Was that ‘Yangyang’ call from Duoduo just now?
Ni Yang looked at Duoduo with delight, “Duoduo, can you talk now?”
Duoduo rubbed its little head against Ni Yang’s chin, “Yangyang!”
So Duoduo really could talk now!
Grandfather Zheng and Grandmother Zheng were also very surprised, “This little bird is so smart!”
Ni Cuihua ca over to tease Duoduo, “Duoduo, say it again.”
“Yangyang!”
Duoduo called out with its voice raised again.
Ni Cuihua laughed as well.
“Then call out ‘Yunyun’.”
“Yangyang!”
Indeed, Duoduo could talk, but it didn’t say everything, it only knew ‘Yangyang’.
Zheng Xianjing ca downstairs and, looking at this joyful family scene, her eyes filled with resentnt.
This was her ho.
This was where she had lived since she was a child, so why should these people take it over?
