Adorable Food Goddess

"Knowing that you are living a good life, I have nothing to worry about. Those evil people will always have their retribution." Mother Su gritted her teeth and said angrily. She has a gentle temperament. To put it bluntly, she is useless, so she can't do well. Protecting the eldest lady, she made the eldest lady suffer so much. She thought that the eldest lady was married and she was finally able to see the moonlight. Who knew that Ning and the second lady could be so vicious? Even when she got underground, she couldn't explain to the madam.

Ye Jiayao's lips curved into a sneer: "Where's Ning?"

"I took the second young lady out, saying I was going to visit relatives. I heard that on New Year's Eve, the master and Mrs. Ning had a quarrel. The quarrel was very fierce. Everything in the house was smashed, which alarmed the old master, the wife, and the wife. He was so angry that he threatened to divorce Mr. Ning, but then he fell silent. On the first day of the new year, Mr. Ning didn’t even go to pay his respects to Mrs. Tai, and Mrs. Tai didn’t say anything. I really don’t understand why the master just didn’t I'm willing to divorce Ning." Su's mother said in confusion.

Ye Jiayao was a little surprised. Su's mother knew it in detail! But then I thought about it, the servants of the Ye family were usually trembling under Ning's high-pressure policy and did not dare to say anything. Now that they knew she was in power, Ning was going to be in bad luck, so it was normal for them to turn around and fawn over Su's mother.

As for why Ye Binghuai didn't let go of Ning, even the wife had to put up with Ning. It wasn't just because Ning was aggressive and would make trouble, it might be because Ning had something to do with Ye Binghuai, and Ye Binghuai couldn't do anything to her.

This made Ye Jiayao very uneasy. Something that made Ye Binghuai so fearful must not be a trivial matter. She had to talk to Chunyu about it.

The two talked for an hour, and had breakfast in the meantime, and Xia Chunyu finally came back.

Mother Su quickly stood up to greet her, and Chunyu said harmoniously: "Mama Su, there is no need to be too polite. This time I brought a bottle of snake wine. I said it is very effective in curing rheumatism. I will send it to you later."

Su's mother burst into tears of gratitude: "I made the prince worried."

"Jinxuan always thinks of you, so I specially picked you up to talk to you this time." Xia Chunyu said with a smile.

Ye Jiayao was very ashamed. She didn't expect that Chunyu would think of going ahead of her, and Chunyu would take the credit for her.

Mother Su stepped aside first, leaving the young couple to talk.

As soon as Su's mother left, Chunyu's expression turned cold. Ye Jiayao had a bad feeling and asked, "Have you asked about that?"

Xia Chunyu sat down and snorted: "Your father's matter is not an ordinary trouble."

It was much more serious than he expected. The things that were picked out were considered trivial matters. The things that were not picked out were all revealed by Ye Binghuai under his questioning. He could only sigh, this father-in-law really knows how to make money. .

Ye Jiayao's heart trembled: "Can it be repaired?"

Xia Chunyu looked uncertain: "What's happening now is about Yanyin. Your father accepted bribes and took advantage of others. But the court now controls Yanyin very strictly. Those salt merchants spent money but couldn't get the salt." Reported on him."

"Can't this be refunded? If the matter is not completed, the benefits will be refunded to others!"

Xia Chunyu glanced at her lightly and snorted: "It would be nice if it was that simple. Now we are giving it back to others. They don't want it. They want salt. As long as your father can help them get salt, they would rather admit it." I know I was framed."

"Scoundrel." Ye Jiayao couldn't help but cursed, but when she thought about it, she still had to blame her father. If he didn't reach out, how could anyone rely on him?

Suddenly, Ye Jiayao thought of a very bad thing. Those salt merchants knew that Ye Binghuai could not get salt, and they still made this request. Could it be that they were targeting Chunyu? Although Chunyu is now a third-class bodyguard, he is very popular in Jinling City and in front of the emperor.

Ye Jiayao looked at Chunyu uneasily: "You must not interfere in this matter. Once those people succeed, they will take advantage of it."

Xia Chunyu's dark eyes were deep. Yaoyao actually thought of the stakes so quickly, and being so worried about him made him feel a little better. She has always had a clear attitude. As long as it endangers his affairs, she would rather Ye Binghuai go to jail than let him interfere. However, since he married Yaoyao, he couldn't ignore the Ye family's affairs.

"I know what I want to do. They want to threaten me and drag me into the water. They don't have the ability." Xia Chunyu said, "It's just a must. I have to stay here for one more day. Tomorrow, your father will invite those salt merchants to come over." , I’ll go meet you, and we’ll leave for Zhenjiang tomorrow night.”

Ye Jiayao did not object. The matter here has not been resolved and it is a hidden danger after all. She was thinking about whether to tell Chunyu her previous guess when she heard Jinyao calling from outside: "Sister..."

Ye Jiayao hurriedly sat down and said: "Third sister, come in!"

Jin Yao personally brought a red paint tray in, her big watery eyes smiled slightly: "Sister, I will bring some food to my eldest brother-in-law."

Jin Yao carefully placed the hot millet porridge, a plate of crystal steamed dumplings and steamed buns in Xia Chunyu's hand, and said softly: "Brother-in-law, please use it with caution."

Ye Jiayao said: "Just let the servants do this kind of thing. Third sister even sent it to me personally."

"Thank you, Third Sister." Xia Chunyu said slightly.

"Eldest brother-in-law, just call me Yaoyao." Jinyao lowered her eyebrows and smiled.

Xia Chunyu was stunned, Yaoyao, isn't that Jinxuan's nickname?

Ye Jiayao was also stunned. She had forgotten that Jinyao's nickname was also Yaoyao. Damn, it was a double name. But, isn't it a bit inappropriate to ask her brother-in-law to call her by her nickname as soon as they met? However, Jinyao is still young, thirteen years old, what does she know? Maybe I just want to get closer to them!

"My grandparents have already known that you have arrived and are thinking about you. I will come over later to accompany my eldest sister and brother-in-law to meet my grandparents." Jinyao bowed and Shi Shiran withdrew.

Xia Chunyu was really hungry. He took a crystal steamed dumpling and chewed it in his mouth. He asked vaguely: "Why is she also called Yaoyao?"

Ye Jiayao knew that Chunyu would ask, raised her chin, and threatened with a tense face: "You want to call her like that?"

It was too troublesome to explain this problem, so she simply threatened.

Xia Chunyu chuckled: "Don't try, the name Yaoyao is exclusive to you, I will only call you that."

"You want one too? Although it's not as delicious as yours, it still tastes good." Xia Chunyu put a steamed dumpling in front of her.

Ye Jiayao shook her head: "I won't eat it, I've already eaten it."

After breakfast, accompanied by Ye Binghuai, Zhong Yuan and Jin Yao, Ye Jiayao and Xia Chunyu went to see their grandparents.

Ye Jiayao's grandfather was a talented scholar who was very rotten and depressed for most of his life. It was not until Ye Binghuai married the Fang family and became an official with the support of the Fang family that the Ye family gradually recovered.

My grandmother also came from a small family and was illiterate.

Such people, once they become determined, have a lot to think about, but they have never seen the world and don't know how to do it, which is a headache.

Ye Jiayao really didn't like her second elder. She had been at home for more than ten years, and these two elders had never looked at her seriously. So, when they met now, even though they were all smiles, she couldn't get close to them at all.

After greetings, everyone sat down to talk.

At first, my grandfather was a little reserved. He had never met anyone from a duke's family in his life, but when he saw that Xia Chunyu's attitude was quite respectful, he gradually became more dependent on his elders. However, he did not dare to say anything about Xia Chunyu, so he came to Ye Jiayao. .

"Jinxuan, grandpa knows that you have been wronged, but a family is a family after all. Don't worry about it too much. Let the past pass. The family should live in harmony and support each other, so as not to worry about it. Let outsiders see the joke."

Ye Jiayao really wanted to laugh three times. Now she knew they were a family. She was treated harshly by Ning, mocked by her sisters, ignored by her father, and even almost killed. Why didn't they say they were a family? Knowing that she married a respectable husband, they became a family? We also help each other and support you and sister, not because we want Chunyu to help you clean up the mess. And let outsiders see the joke, haha, the Ye family has made too many jokes?

Ye Jiayao smiled gently: "My grandfather taught me that if my grandfather had said these words a few years earlier, my granddaughter would not have been wronged for so many years, and she would not have been sold to a bandit's den and almost died. Fortunately, God I am still wise, so my granddaughter is a blessing in disguise, and now I have the opportunity to listen to my grandfather's teachings."

The Ye family members present were all embarrassed, but they could only endure it. After all, what Ye Jiayao said was true.

Grandma was a little unhappy. In her heart, the old man was God. Who dared to stand up to God? Isn't Ye Jiayao teasing the old man by saying this?

"Jinxuan, this is your fault. Your grandfather did it for your own good and the good of this family. One cannot forget his roots."

Ye Jiayao wanted to laugh even more. Damn, you dare to say that she has forgotten her roots?

"Grandma, where did you start talking about this? What did I do? Did I murder my brothers and sisters? Or did I do something wrong to the Ye family? It seems that those who forget their roots, do not abide by women's ethics, and do not abide by family rules are other things. Someone else?" Ye Jiayao still smiled, but this smile did not make people feel warm.

Xia Chunyu knew Yaoyao's temper, and the more she smiled and talked, the angrier she felt and became really angry. If the old lady continues to rely on her old age, he will not be polite.

Grandma's face darkened, feeling that her dignity had been challenged. Just as she was about to speak, Ye Binghuai quickly stood up to smooth things over and said, "Mother, no wonder Xuan'er, it's not easy for her to return to the Ye family regardless of the past. It's all my son's fault. It's his failure to manage the family that has caused Xuan'er to suffer so many grievances."

Ye Binghuai kept winking at his mother, and Chunyu finally agreed to help him deal with the aftermath. Why was his mother saying such useless things now? Isn't that a bad thing?

"Why are you winking at me? My mother-in-law can't control it, and my children can't control it, but you want to control me, an old woman." Grandma said angrily.

Ye Binghuai was greatly embarrassed and accused him repeatedly: "Mom, calm down, mother, calm down..."

Her heart was on fire. If her mother wanted to establish her authority, she had to see if she could strengthen her waist.
