Wife, he's cute and sweet

The summer in Yancheng is just like its name. It is hot and long, especially in June and July, when the cicadas sing loudly outside the window, and the blue-gray ground is scorched with layers of heat waves. The heavy rain was gone in a blink of an eye by the scorching sun.

Two wild cats came out to look for food. The pads of their feet stepped on the hot ground, meowed twice, and then arched their backs and burrowed into the shady bushes under the iron fence wall of a big house nearby.

Different from the scorching heat outside, the hall of this mansion was silent and cold at the moment. In the huge and luxurious living room, all the servants were silent, all of them lowered their eyes and shrugged their shoulders, not daring to speak.

I don't know how long the silence lasted until Ye Mingcheng, who was sitting on the sofa in the main seat, raised his head, looked at Su Yun and Ye Qingyi's mother and son opposite, and said in a deep voice: "Think about what I just said, the Ye family has no more room. "

Hearing what he said, Su Yun's complexion was not very good-looking: "Husband, no matter how difficult it is for Mrs. Ye, she will not reach this point. As the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. I don't believe that we have really reached the point where we need to let Yi It's really impossible for my son to get married in exchange for this lifeline. Isn't there still our Su family? I'll ask my dad..."

"It's too late." Ye Mingcheng lowered his head and sighed in a low voice, his face was full of depression and ashes. The veins in his right hand held on the dragon head of the walking stick bulged, and he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "The only one who can save Ye's life now is to follow There is no other way to marry the He family."

Su Yun didn't expect the Ye family to reach such a point, and while she was horrified, she quickly went through some things she knew about the He family in her mind.

Their Ye family, and their mother's Su family, are already a big family in Yancheng, but compared with the He family, they are completely insignificant. It is no exaggeration to say that they are the top giants, occupying the top of the list of Asia's richest people all the year round.

Mr. He, who single-handedly built the He family, is not a simple person. He is capable of doing business beyond the sky, and his temper is even more romantic. He still has a concubine at a lot of age, and finally he has an illegitimate child. It is said that later When they approached him, they turned the He family upside down, and now the illegitimate son He Jue is going to marry Yi'er of their family.

Thinking of this, Su Yun's heart was filled with anger, a lowly son of a woman who got out of nowhere, was also worthy of marrying her Yi'er.

She has also heard rumors about this illegitimate son. Few people in the He family think highly of him, and Mr. He doesn't take much care of him. An illegitimate son who is not favored and has an embarrassing status, one can imagine his situation in a wealthy family like the He family. How tough.

The more Su Yun thinks about it, the more unwilling she is to agree to this marriage. She raised her head and looked at Ye Mingcheng: "I don't care, don't think that I don't know who this Hejue is, an illegitimate child who can't stand on the stage, he is not worthy to carry shoes for our Yier .”

She also deliberately put the three words "illegitimate child" very seriously.

Ye Mingcheng's face turned extremely ugly, his lips trembled, and he tapped the floor with his cane angrily: "What's the point of saying these useless things now, the most important thing right now is to revitalize the Ye family, you think I'm shy Why did the old face go to ask Mr. He for this matter, if it wasn't for the love of the old friends of the previous generation, this marriage would not come if you want to ask for it!"

"Then why should our Yi'er be wronged to marry such an illegitimate child and ruin his life!"

"Yi'er married Gao Pan, why did he ruin his life! You are a woman, don't speculate here!"

Ye Mingcheng was emotional, his chest was heaving violently, he looked down at Ye Qingyi who was too scared to speak, and his tone softened slightly: "Yi'er, don't be afraid, your Uncle He is a family friend with your father, you will definitely not wronged."

Su Yun shielded Ye Qingyi and argued, "My husband..."

"Okay." Ye Mingcheng interrupted her directly, and stood up with his cane: "This matter is settled, Su Yun, please enlighten Yi'er well, and we can talk about it in detail when the He family decides on the specific wedding date."

After saying that, he immediately turned around and walked upstairs, his back was determined, for fear that any more right and wrong would happen again.

Seeing him leave, Ye Qingyi, whose face turned pale with fright, finally dared to take a breath, grabbed Su Yun's hand, and complained anxiously: "Mom, Dad won't really want me to marry Hejue, right? But his only son, how could he be willing!"

Su Yun patted his hand and remained silent for a while, but a sneer that completely didn't match her gentle and quiet temperament appeared on her beautiful face: "Silly Yier, don't worry, mom is just such a precious son as you, how can you be willing to let you Marrying someone like Hejue will push you into the pit of fire."

Ye Qingyi looked up at her in surprise: "Mom, do you have a way to make Dad change his mind?"

Su Yun shook her head: "We all know your father's character. He is such an autocratic and domineering person, and he will definitely not change the decisions he makes easily."

Hearing what she said, Ye Qingyi became depressed again: "Then what should we do?"

"Stupid son." Su Yun pinched his handsome face: "Your father said just now that the He family married our family, and the He family belonged to that He Jue. Our Ye family only said it was his son, but did not specify that it was you." , you are mother's only baby son, but not your father's only son, don't forget, we still have that thing at home..."

After Su Yun finished speaking, she raised her chin and glanced at the secret staircase leading to the basement.

Ye Qingyi also followed her to look in that direction, immediately understood, and said in surprise: "Mom, you mean, that little monster?"

Su Yun nodded, and when talking about the person in the basement, even the smile in her eyes was cold and disgusted: "We have raised that little monster for more than ten years, and we have been eating and drinking for so long, so we should let him pay for the Ye family." A illegitimate child with an illegitimate child, isn't it just a match made in heaven?"

Although this idea is good, Ye Qingyi still has concerns: "But mom, dad wants me to get married, if we secretly change people, dad will definitely be very angry."

"He dares." Su Yun sneered: "No matter how powerful he is, the current Ye family relies on the Su family to get up, so what if he steals the day, even if he gets angry at that time, as long as your grandfather says a word, you can see if he dares to disobey."

Hearing Su Yun's words, Ye Qingyi finally put his heart back into his stomach, and in a blink of an eye he smiled playfully, "It's a good thing, Mom, you have a way, otherwise I'm really going to get married, how can I marry you when the time comes?" Boyfriend explain."

Su Yun stretched out her hand and pinched his face: "Don't be so foolish, you won't show mom any boyfriend you get."

"Don't worry, Mom." Ye Qingyi said coquettishly to her, "Don't you believe your son's vision? He is very handsome, and he is also the heir-to-be of the family, not ten thousand times stronger than that illegitimate son Hejue."

Su Yun stroked his hair: "We Yi'er just like it."

The mother and son chatted for a while, Su Yun patted Ye Qingyi to make him sit up, and called the people behind in a low voice: "Is Chu Lian here?"

After finishing the words, a tall and thin man in black servant clothes came over with his head bowed: "Ma'am, I am here."

Su Yun raised her chin, stroking the well-maintained white back of her hand with her fingers: "If I remember correctly, it's the one you've been in charge of looking after the basement."

Chu Lian nodded: "Yes."

"Did you hear what Yi'er and I just said?"

Where she couldn't see, Chu Lian clenched his hands hanging by his legs into fists: "I heard everything."

Su Yun nodded: "That's right, you should go to the basement now and tell him what I mean, and explain clearly, otherwise a little monster like him will stay in a place where there is no light for a long time. I can’t even understand people’s words.”

Chu Lian bent down: "Understood, ma'am."

After Su Yun explained, she stopped talking to him, and turned around to discuss something with Ye Qingyi.

Chu Lian lowered his eyes and silently backed away.

The basement of the house was originally used as a wine cellar, and there are still many kinds of precious wines collected by Ye Mingcheng, but now there are not only wines here, but also a secret that the Ye family can't tell.

Back then, a little child suddenly appeared in the Ye family, inserted into the life of the Ye family abruptly, so out of place, not welcomed by everyone.

His biological father Ye Mingcheng didn't dare to face him and left him behind, but he didn't care about him. His stepmother Su Yun even regarded him as a thorn in her side, thinking that his existence was a slap in the face for her. He tucked himself away in the darkened basement of his home.

Out of sight is pure in heart, in Su Yun's view, giving this child food and clothing, and letting him live in a place where he can't see the light day after day, is already a great gift to this dirty thing.

Chu Lian's father was Ye Mingcheng's driver and drove him for more than [-] years. Therefore, Chu Lian lived and grew up in Ye's family since he was a child. Their family is Ye Mingcheng's most trusted and capable confidants.

Perhaps Ye Mingcheng still had a little conscience. After learning that Su Yun locked his other son in the basement, he asked Chu Lian to take care of him. At the same time, he entrusted that child's safety to him.

Except for him, no one else in the house is allowed to go near the room in the basement. For more than ten years, the basement has become an unspeakable existence of the Ye family.

It is also thanks to this that the little young master has developed a childlike temperament that is as pure as snow and is not stained with dust.

Thinking of his innocence, and thinking about what Su Yun and Ye Qingyi said just now, Chu Lian frowned again, and began to worry about the young master's situation.

Pushing open the heavy and creaking wooden door in the basement, and turning on the wall lamp, what comes into view is a wide dark hall with rows of neat red wine racks, and a strange damp smell in the air.

Pass through these red wine racks, turn into a dark passage, and you will see a small black wooden door.

This place has been like a day for more than ten years. Chu Lian has been in and out of this place since he was a child. He can almost distinguish every brick and tile on the wall with his eyes closed.

Raising his hand to knock on the wooden door, he gently pushed the door open without waiting for a response.

The room is not big, only a bed, a table and a cabinet can be placed. There is a person sitting on the floor, holding a book with his back to him, reading.

A head of black hair poured down, smooth and black like ebony, almost covering his whole thin body, the hands holding the book were pale and bony, with slender fingers, and the fingertips twirling the pages of the book were a little pink.

As if he had seen something exciting, he frowned slightly, concentrated his attention, bit his pink lip with his white teeth, and shrunk his pointed chin slightly, as if he was shocked by the content of the book.

Chu Lian came over, afraid of scaring him, so he whispered: "Master Xue."
