Parents are busy farming

Madam Su patted Ye Zifen's hand with satisfaction and said with a smile, "Zifen is right. You and your wife should go and take care of things first. I have maids and guards to take care of me. I will be fine. You can come and pick me up after everything is arranged."

Then she turned to look at Ye Zifen and said firmly, "I don't think there's anything wrong with living here, so I won't live over there anymore."

This was Madam Su's insistence, and Ye Zifen was inconvenient to force her request. She secretly decided in her heart that after returning home, she must ask Xiang Zhibo to visit her from time to time.

Su Jincheng only considered himself and did not think comprehensively. He never thought about these things. Mrs. Su should also consider them.

The three of them sat together and began to chat happily about family matters.

Su Jincheng felt extremely relieved when he saw how harmoniously Ye Zifen and her mother got along.

However, for some reason, he always felt that there was something wrong with his feelings, as if he could sense that there seemed to be some kind of gap between Ye Zifen and his current wife.

Moreover, he keenly felt that his wife seemed to be afraid of Ye Zifen.

But he couldn't understand why this happened. After all, the fool and Ye Zifen had never gotten along well, and they didn't even communicate much.

This wife is quite smart, but she still can’t open up to Xiaowu... Is it really because Zifen is too outstanding?

After the three of them talked about their views on the future, Ye Zifen stood up and said, "Godmother, I have things to do back at Fu Ke Lai. If you have any problems, you can go directly to Fu Ke Lai to find someone. If I'm not here, Xiang Qian will help."

Old Madam Su was reluctant to let Ye Zifen go and wanted to keep her for dinner, but she also felt that it was better not to.

In the end, no one said anything to keep the person.

Ye Zifen looked at Madam Su, and she understood what she was thinking, so she smiled and said, "Godmother, don't worry, I will come to see you when I am free. I do have something to do today, so I have to go back first."

Madam Su nodded and looked at Ye Zifen with loving eyes: "Well, Zifen, go ahead and get busy. Remember to take care of yourself and don't get too tired."

Ye Zifen nodded and said, "I understand, godmother, you should also take care of your health."

After saying that, she said goodbye to Old Madam Su and Su Jingcheng!

When Ye Zifen arrived at Fukelai, the afterglow of the setting sun had just disappeared below the horizon.

At the same time, a carriage drove out from the side door of the Minister of Personnel's Mansion and headed towards the house rented by the Su family.

The person sitting in the carriage was Mrs. Su, who had been persuaded for a long time by the wife of the Minister of Personnel.

In fact, Mrs. Su is quite nice.

In order to find a good future for her son Su Jincheng, she would visit the Minister of Personnel and his wife every day to greet them, ask about their well-being, and try her best to show her filial piety and presence.

This obvious intention made it impossible for the Minister of Personnel and his wife to ignore her existence.

In addition, Su Jincheng himself did achieve some political achievements, which made the Minister of Personnel very satisfied.

Therefore, it can be said that this is a mutually fulfilling relationship.

However, despite this, Madam Su, as a noble lady in the capital, always likes to compare herself with others.

When she found out that she was no match for someone without a prominent background, she felt as if she was being bitten by millions of ants.

If you don't touch on this issue, you will always feel itchy in your heart; but once you touch it, you will feel extremely painful.

It was already late when Ye Zifen returned to Fukelai. Xiang Zhibo was standing at the door anxiously waiting for her.

Seeing Ye Zifen coming back, Xiang Zhibo hurried over to greet her and asked anxiously, "Why did you come back so late, young lady? I was planning to send someone to the Hong Mansion to inquire about the situation."

Ye Zifen replied tiredly, "After I left the Hong family, I went to the house that Lord Su rented in the capital."

Xiang Zhibo said in surprise: "You didn't plan to go right away? Why..."

Ye Zifen sighed and explained, "I ran into Madam Su at the Hong family. I can't pretend that I don't know they are still in the capital. I just don't know if it will cause them any trouble."

Xiang Zhibo finally understood what had happened and said self-reproachfully, "This is such a coincidence. I didn't find out clearly. I didn't know that the Hong family had guests today..."

Ye Zifen interrupted him and said, "It's not your fault. This is good. It can always be considered an excuse."

Xiang Zhibo looked at Ye Zifen worriedly and asked, "We'll have dinner soon, are you still going out?"

Ye Zifen shook her head and said tiredly, "No, I won't go. This day is more tiring than life at sea. Suddenly I realized that I don't like the life of these people at all."

Xiang Zhibo looked at Ye Zifen and felt a surge of sympathy and understanding in his heart.

He knew that the Fifth Girl was capable, but it was normal for someone who had always lived a free and unrestrained life to dislike these cumbersome etiquette and rules.

He comforted her, "Girl, maybe this is the place you are not used to, but we still have to adapt. After all, this is the capital, and people's lifestyle is different from ours over there. However, if you really feel too tired, just take a rest."

Ye Zifen nodded, then turned and walked into the room, ready to have a good rest.

When Mrs. Su returned home, she heard about Ye Zifen's visit today as soon as she entered the house.

I immediately felt as if I had been slapped in the face, but I had no way to settle the score with anyone.

Her face turned gloomy, her lips were tightly pursed, and her hands were clenched into fists, as if she would explode at any time.

However, deep down in her heart she was filled with helplessness and grievance.

She remembered what her mother said to her when she came home.

At that time, the Minister of Personnel said, "You silly child, since she is your mother-in-law's goddaughter, there was nothing wrong between the two of them before, but now that you have entered the Su family, it is even more impossible for them to be together."

This is also the reason why the wife of the Minister of Personnel thought that her daughter had a grudge against others.

At that time, Mrs. Su couldn't help feeling heartbroken. She knew she couldn't blame anyone, but the dissatisfaction in her heart was difficult to calm down.

She walked towards the second entrance silently. At this moment, she recalled another sentence of her mother: "You can see that Miss Ye is plain and seems to be full of peace, but the more such a person is, the more proud she will be. Such a girl will not be a mistress to others. In other words, such a girl either doesn't want anyone, or she wants someone she really likes. So you don't need to be jealous here."

Mrs. Su sighed softly, with a hint of doubt and uneasiness in her eyes.
