The great-aunt’s expression was very ugly, but she did not directly lose her temper. She only told the two of them to quickly stick together and go to the living room.
Ye Cheng’s parents were both out of town, so they did not come back to J City to celebrate the New Year. Ye Cheng had already called them in the morning and told them directly about the situation with Hua Rui, asking them not to interfere with his feelings! They were very angry, but they could not say anything over the phone.
Old Ye had already understood the situation last night. He had lived his whole life and had long accepted it. He only said to Ye Cheng, “You have to overcome the difficulties!”
“Ye Cheng, what did you do? Ah? If it weren’t for the Shu family’s old lady telling me, even your great-aunt would not know about this!”
“Ye Cheng, in our hearts, you have always been very smart. Why are you muddle-headed now? I have already asked people to investigate the background of that girl!” The great-aunt finished. The second great aunt continued. Her family was part of the education system. If she wanted to investigate the situation of Hua Rui, she could do it with a single order!
The two aunties were so angry that they could not speak!
“Aunties, aunties, before her, I felt that I should find a suitable eldest granddaughter-in-law for the old Ye family! I’ve been instilled with this thought since I was young! However, I now understand that I, Ye Cheng, am an independent person. I should find a wife that suits my own preferences, right? What era is this? Why should I believe in the old society?! Matching families? What I, Ye Cheng, love, is her, and she loves me. This is what I call a match!” Ye Cheng stood up, he raised his voice and spoke.
“This is my attitude! No one can stop me. I, Ye Cheng, want to be with Hua Rui!” Ye Cheng said again.
Ye Qiao sat on the side and did not say anything.
The aunties and in-laws were furious.
“Ye Cheng, have you forgotten that our family was humiliated by Qin Lan the year before last? At that time, why didn’t we immediately kick her out of the Ye family? Wasn’t it because the Ye family wasn’t strong enough? Ever since Qiao Qiao married Ah Xiao, didn’t you see how strong our Ye family has gotten? Now, in the entire J City and the entire country, who would dare to bully our family?!” the elder auntie said earnestly.
At this moment, Ye Qiao stood up.
“Elder Auntie, I’m going to scold you for this. Don’t be angry. Back then, didn’t our Ye family also want to become in-laws with the Qin family? That’s why my father married Qin Lan and didn’t want my mother? After becoming in-laws with the Qin family, what about the Ye family? Weren’t they still bullied by Qin Lan?! Moreover, that Qin Lan– forget it, she’s already dead. I won’t mention it! What I mean is, do you want Ye Cheng to follow in my father’s footsteps?! My father is still regretting what he did in the past. He can’t even go to my mother’s grave to lay a flower!” Ye Qiao did not know what to say. In her previous life, Ye Cheng listened to you guys and married Shu Yu. In the end, something happened to him. Shu Yu wanted a divorce and even had a lover!”
Ye Qiao’s words made the grandaunts and aunts fall silent.
One sentence from her had jabbed their sore spots, and also their spines!
“Yes, although Hua Rui was born poor, and her father and eldest brother didn’t live up to expectations, can you blame her?! She worked hard and got into J University because she wanted to change her fate! She did it! I don’t think a girl like her isn’t worthy of Ye Cheng. She is more outstanding than those so-called daughters of noble families. She will be even better in the future. That’s all I want to say. Please think it through and don’t let the tragedy happen again!”
“Qiao Qiao! I’m not your uncle! I can’t follow his path. No one can interfere with my relationship with Hua Rui!” Ye Cheng said resolutely.
“Don’t worry about it! Let the young people solve their own problems!” Old Ye, who had been silent all this time, said firmly, “Ye Cheng! Tonight, on New Year’s Eve, bring that girl to Grandpa’s place to eat dumplings!”
Ye Cheng had some misgivings before, but all of them were dispelled by Ye Qiao’s words. Ye Shengxun was a living example!
Ye Cheng listened to his grandpa’s words and nodded with a smile. He had planned to bring Hua Rui to Grandpa’s place for New Year’s Eve. When he remembered that she spent New Year’s Eve alone in a foreign land, his heart ached terribly!
Since Old Ye had said so, Ye Qiao also sided with Ye Cheng. Even though the aunties and in-laws still had some concerns in their hearts, they could not persuade him anymore.

Shu Yu, who had been waiting for Hua Rui to not be accepted by the Ye family, was furious when she heard that Hua Rui spent the New Year at Old Ye’s place in the courtyard!
How was that possible?!
It must be Ye Qiao again!
At that moment, her phone received a text message: ‘I hope Miss Shu, who failed, has a happy new year! Congratulations, you are one year older! Are you in a hurry to find a husband? Do you want me to introduce you? You are welcome to call back anytime! Ye Qiao.’
