Banxia’s hand that was holding the bowl paused slightly, and an unnatural blush flashed quickly on her face out of embarrassment.
She had a hunch that this would definitely not be the last time the old lady mentioned this issue.
A mouthful of rice was delivered into her mouth, and Banxia blinked mournfully. Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and glanced at Mo Jinghan.
If the elder brother could bring a sister-in-law back, wouldn’t the grandma stare at her every time instead?
Facing her gaze, Mo Jinghan raised an eyebrow. “Grandma wants to hug her grandson, and I also want to have a little nephew.”
Mo Chenyan glanced at him expressionlessly and said lightly, “Grandma, this matter isn’t urgent. It has to at least wait until after the wedding. You don’t want your granddaughter to be a bride with a big belly, do you?”
Zhu Meiying thought for a while, and it was indeed the case.
She sighed regretfully. “I still have to wait so long.”
Banxia heaved a sigh of relief. Mo Chenyan has successfully diverted grandma’s attention. At least grandma wouldn’t mention it again before the wedding.
Mo Chenyan pondered for a moment, then his lips slightly tilted. “Actually, there is still a way.” The old lady’s eyes lit up, and she continued to listen to him. “Big brother’s wife can give birth to one for you.”
Mo Jinghan almost spat out his food and his brow jumped twice. “Second Brother!”
Mo Chenyan’s expression remained the same. “If big brother likes children, you can just have one. Wouldn’t it be better having a son than a nephew?”
“…”
Mo Jinghan’s face turned pale and he glared at him.
However, the old lady thought that what he said was very reasonable. “Mo Jinghan, what are you staring at? I told you before, you are now thirty-one, not thirteen. You really can’t wait for Second Grandson to have a child, you must bring me back my granddaughter-in-law!”
The old chief, who had yet to speak, suddenly nodded and summed up the matter expressionlessly. “Go on a blind date in two days.”
This time it was Banxia who choked.
Mo Chenyan put down his chopsticks and patted her on the back twice. “Do you want a sister-in-law that badly?”
Banxia’s mouth twitched twice, and it was obvious that the sight of everyone at the dining table was all on her.
It was three to one, and she couldn’t stand in the wrong team.
Banxia’s lips curled up and she smiled guiltily at Mo Jinghan before nodding solemnly. “Of course.”
So Mo Jinghan went on a blind date after two days.
…
Jin Garden.
Ye Youran came home and almost spoke about Banxia, but she thought about it and quickly refrained.
After eating dinner, she stayed in the living room, holding hot water poured by Fang Shuyuan in her hands. She stared at the TV while sitting on the sofa in a daze, and it was easy to see that something was wrong with her.
Fang Shuyuan cut some fruits in the kitchen and put them on a fruit tray. She slowly came out and put them on the coffee table in front of the pair of father and daughter. She appeared to be a good wife and a good mother.
She looked at the dazed Ye Youran and asked worriedly, “Youran, what’s the matter with you? You’ve been so worrisome since you came back. Did something happen outside? Or is there something you want to say to your father?”
Ye Youran’s eyes flickered slightly and she immediately shook her head in a panic. “No… no.”
Ye Hanyuan withdrew his eyes from the TV news and glanced at her lightly. “If you have anything to say, it’s not your character to swallow it down.”
“Dad…”
Ye Youran bit her lip and stopped talking. She clenched the cup of tea in her hand tightly, as if fighting with herself psychologically.
Fang Shuyuan couldn’t take it any longer. She took her hand and said solemnly, “Youran, if there’s something wrong, you have to tell me. We’re not outsiders, so what’s there to hide?”
“Mom, it’s not that I was wronged… it’s just, Second Sister, Second Sister…”
“What’s wrong with Banxia?” Ye Hanyuan immediately looked at her, a flash of worry flashing quickly between his tight and serious eyebrows.
Ye Hanyuan was still worried about this daughter who hadn’t come to see him for a long time nor even contacted him at all. If it hadn’t been for that matter…
He exhaled heavily.
Fang Shuyuan bit her lip fiercely and sneered at the bottom of her heart. Youran and her had followed him for so many years. Even when the Ye family was bankrupt, they didn’t show the slightest bit of distaste, yet he was still concerned about that bitch?
Taking a deep breath, she stiffly squeezed out a forced smile. “Youran, don’t make your father anxious. Tell us, what’s wrong with Banxia?”
“Mom, nothing has happened to Second Sister. But, but…” Ye Youran swallowed and played with Ye Hanyuan’s heart, but she didn’t go on and changed her words instead. “Dad, you know that elder sister has successfully done her surgery?”
Ye Hanyuan looked at her expressionlessly but felt a tremble in his heart.
Similar things had always replayed in his mind over the past few days, but he hadn’t dared to think about it most of the time.
Banxia didn’t have money to save Hanyan, but she certainly would have found a way…
Ye Youran didn’t hear his answer, so she raised her eyes quietly and looked at his tightly knitted eyebrows. Her beautiful eyes circulated slightly, then she tentatively continued, “Dad, why do you think Second Sister has so much money? Hanchuan said he would give her money, but she didn’t want it… I bumped into her today at the mall too and she actually bought all the new suits in GX mall. Do you think she…”
“Youran!” Fang Shuyuan suddenly interrupted her unspoken words, her face somber. “Don’t talk nonsense. Banxia is a good child, she won’t do this kind of thing to disappoint your father!”
“Mom…” Ye Youran whispered grievously.
The atmosphere in the living room was stiff for a moment and nobody spoke.
The two of them looked at Ye Hanyuan, only to see that his face was sullen and he was thinking deeply about something. His eyes fell deeply on the magazine of the coffee table in front of him and his whole body exuded a sense of obvious anger.
Ye Youran’s lips curled undetectably, but she looked away quickly and concealed her amused expression.
“Mom, I’m not talking nonsense. I also believe in Second Sister’s character, so I endured it and didn’t tell you and dad even after so long. However, I still feel like it’s necessary for dad to know about this matter. As for whether it’s a misunderstanding… why don’t dad just ask Second Sister? You also know that if I ask her, she… she won’t be willing to respond…”
Fang Shuyuan was stunned and asked sadly, “Banxia isn’t willing to forgive you?”
Ye Youran sighed and said pitifully, “Yes… but I deserve it. I was the one who let her down…”
The light in front of her was dark, and suddenly a heavy shadow pressed down.
The two were slightly surprised. When they looked up, they saw that Ye Hanyuan had stood up without saying a word and was walking straight towards the bedroom.
With a “bang” sound, he closed the door heavily and the sound rang in their ears.
The pair of mother and daughter looked back and smiled at each other.
