Chapter 316 Su Yinghuai breaks down and cries
Ye Ping'an squatted in the corner, covering his face and crying.
Ye Peng smiled and said, "Don't worry about him. He's been under a lot of pressure recently and is just complaining. You two can go back. Ping An and I won't go. Oh, by the way, Wen Ye will go back with you, right?"
Jamel Xiao nodded: “Yes, he should have gone back earlier, but he was delayed until now just to wait for us.”
Ye Peng was somewhat envious: "If Wenye passes the imperial examination and becomes the third place in the imperial examination, the village will definitely celebrate with great fanfare. It's so lively just thinking about it."
He sighed and said, "I have been assigned to the military and have too many things to do. I can't go anywhere in the next six months. Otherwise, I could take you to Yuncheng."
"There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. When my wife gives birth to the baby in Qingquan Village, we will go there as a family."
Qingquan Village has beautiful scenery and familiar relatives. It is much quieter than the capital without too much intrigue and is suitable for nurturing a baby. It is his favorite place and also the place Ye Tang wants to return to.
As for Ye Peng and Ye Ping'an, no matter how much they like Qingquan Village, they cannot leave casually or shirk their responsibilities.
They are from the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion, which has few descendants. If they, father and son, don't grow up quickly and take over everything in the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion, the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion will probably decline as Shangguan Zhenhua gets older.
As for him, the King of Pingshan...with his and Ye Tang's current abilities, it's no big deal for them to leave Beijing for a while. Everything has been arranged anyway.
While Jamel Xiao was talking to Shangguan Zhenhua, Ye Ping'an, and Gui Dao, Ye Peng pulled Ye Tang aside and whispered a few words in her ear.
Ye Tang was stunned for a moment, then she laughed. She turned her wrist and a jade pendant with a peony pattern appeared in her hand: "Here."
This was one of her mother's relics, left to her by her grandmother and passed down to her after her mother passed away.
Tomorrow is my mother’s birthday. Every time this time comes, my father misses her especially much. He holds the jade pendant in his hand when he goes to sleep, reminding him of her.
Ye Peng happily took the jade pendant and said, "I'll return it to you the day after tomorrow."
It is safest to keep the jade pendant with my daughter. There is no need to worry about it being stolen or damaged.
After leaving the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion, Ye Tang and his companions went to the Prince's Mansion and then to the Imperial Palace.
Emperor Yuanwu only asked: "When will you two leave Beijing?"
"Three days later."
The next morning, Su Xiaoluo came to find Ye Tang and found out that they were leaving. She was reluctant to let them go: "I have never been far away. Can I go with you to Tian'an Mansion?"
"No." Ye Tang refused mercilessly: "I am going to take care of my baby. I will be back after the New Year. You are the daughter of the Su family. You cannot act willfully. You come with me. If something happens, I will not be able to explain to your father."
"Wow, but I can't bear to leave Sister Tang."
"This is Lapa's VIP card. Take this and take care of my business whenever you miss me."
Su Xiaoluo: "......"
After comforting Su Xiaoluo, Ye Tang and his wife took Su Xiaoluo with them to the Su family and met Su Yinghuai.
"Why do you have to go to the countryside to take care of your pregnancy when you can't do it anywhere else?" Su Yinghuai said calmly.
Jamel Xiao said very bluntly: "I miss my fifth brother and fifth sister-in-law."
Su Yinghuai was silent for a moment: "When I have time, I will also go to the place where you grew up."
If that place is really as beautiful as Xiao Jingxuan and the others said, when he gets tired of the capital, he can live in seclusion there, open a small private school, and be an ordinary teacher.
Another day passed, and Su Yinghuai brought a box of books to the Pingshan Palace, and told Xiao Jingxuan and Ye Tang: "Don't forget to study in the countryside. These books are rare and carefully selected by me. They will be of great use to you."
"You should keep it well after you learn it, so that your children can use it again when they grow up."
Ye Tang and the others: "......"
"Tang'er!" Ye Peng's voice suddenly came, and he ran over with two dark circles under his eyes: "Please keep the jade pendant."
Only after getting closer did he see Su Yinghuai: "Master Imperial Master, you are here too!"
Su Yinghuai responded and took a casual glance at the emerald green jade pendant in Ye Peng's hand. The delicate peony pattern instantly caught his attention: "Can you show me the jade pendant in your hand?"
Ye Peng took a step back: "This is my wife's relic."
Su Yinghuai said: "I am not trying to snatch it from you, I just think the jade pendant in your hand looks familiar and I want to take a closer look."
Ye Peng hesitated for a moment, but finally handed the jade pendant over: "Be careful, don't break it, this is my life."
Su Yinghuai took it and looked at the jade pendant repeatedly. On the back of the jade pendant, he saw a small word, which was not from the Yuan Dynasty.
The moment he saw this word, Su Yinghuai's pupils trembled: "This is..."
Seeing his reaction, Ye Tang and the others were puzzled.
Ye Tang asked: "Master, do you recognize this jade pendant?"
Su Yinghuai tightly grasped the jade pendant, his lips trembling slightly: "I know him."
Ye Peng was delighted: "Do you really know him?"
Su Yinghuai looked at him and asked, "Is this jade pendant really your wife's? Where did she get it from?"
Ye Peng said: "My mother-in-law left it to her. As for where my mother-in-law got it from, I don't know. My wife doesn't know either. My mother-in-law never told her."
Su Yinghuai looked a little excited: "Is your mother-in-law's surname Huo?"
Ye Peng nodded: "Yes, how did you know?"
Ye Tang glanced at Su Yinghuai, as if he had guessed something, with shock in his eyes.
I only heard Su Yinghuai ask again: "Is her name Huo Ziyan?"
Ye Peng was even more surprised: "Yes, you know my mother-in-law?"
Xiao Jingxuan and Ye Tang looked at each other, and a hint of understanding flashed across their eyes.
After getting a definite answer, Su Yinghuai's hands began to tremble, and his eyes turned red as he looked at the jade pendant in his hand.
"Zi Yan, Zi Yan, I finally found you. I found you. You have been hiding for so many years. You..." Su Yinghuai turned around and asked Ye Peng, "Where is your mother-in-law now?"
Ye Peng said: "She passed away a long time ago."
Su Yinghuai’s eyes went dark and he almost fell to the ground.
Xiao Jingxuan supported him in time: "Master, are you okay?"
Su Yinghuai shook his head and eagerly grabbed Ye Peng's hand: "What about your wife?"
Ye Peng: "She didn't come to the capital with me, so she must be gone! Otherwise, how could I not bring her to the capital."
Su Yinghuai couldn't hold it in any longer and spat out a mouthful of blood, tears streaming down his face.
"Dead, all dead! I haven't even met them yet and they're gone. Haha, it's my fault. It's all my fault. If I had discovered earlier that Zi Yan was still alive, if I had found them earlier, I wouldn't have..."
Su Yinghuai's face was filled with uncontrollable sadness and he could not control his emotions at all. The old man cried like a child.
This appearance scared Ye Tang and others.
"Master Imperial Master, please don't scare us! Cheer up."
Ye Peng also stepped forward to support Su Yinghuai, and at this moment he also discovered that something was wrong with Su Yinghuai.
Xiao Jingxuan held Su Yinghuai tightly, and Ye Tang couldn't help but ask: "Master, what is the relationship between my grandmother and mother and you?"
