Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 528: Chapter 317: Dispute and Doubt

”Grandpa, shall we start the meal now?” Mrs. Yang approached.

Old Master Ye glanced at the clock: ”Alright, we won’t wait for Third anymore.” He led the way to the dining room and pointed to the head seat: ”Ye’er, Xiao Xuan, help Grandpa sit.”

”Yes, Grandpa.”

”Ye’er, Xiao Xuan, sit next to Great Grandpa.” After Grandpa sat down, he gestured to the seats on either side.

”Great Grandpa is the eldest, go ahead and sit.” Ye Xuan smiled and pressed Luo Ye to sit on Great Grandpa’s right, then sat next to Luo Ye: ”Great Grandpa, I want to sit with my granddaughter-in-law.”

”You rascal.” Great Grandpa poked Ye Xuan’s arm with his walking stick, and looked towards Old Master Ye: ”Xiao San, come sit here.” As for everyone else, he glanced at them a few times without any other indication.

After everyone took their seats with varied expressions, Old Master Ye introduced Luo Ye, Zhan Ping, Ye Qinglian, Ye Jian, and Ye Qinghe. After exchanging greetings, the dishes were served one after another, and the dining hall was quiet except for the sounds of chewing.

Midway through the meal, Ye Jia’an rushed back, apologizing as he entered: ”I’m late, sorry, Seventh brother and sisters, Ye’er, Pingping, sorry!”

”Uncle (Third Brother) (Third Uncle) hello!” The three almost replied simultaneously.

”What’s the matter?” Old Master Ye looked displeased.

Ye Jia’an waved his hand: ”Don’t mention it, I was about to leave when I got a call saying there was an incident with the flight squadron. After handling it, I rushed here.”

...

After the meal, everyone returned to the living room for a chat. A servant brought over some light lotus leaf tea and then left. Once Grandpa sat down, Da Hei suddenly appeared and awkwardly moved to sit by Grandpa’s feet.

”Great Grandpa only spends this half-hour after lunch with everyone. He prefers to stay in his own little fenced yard at other times. Da Hei has gotten used to this; he always comes and waits on time.” Ye Xuan explained quietly.

Luo Ye suddenly realized: ”This little thing is clever.”

Ye Qinghe leaned over: ”Brother, you hog Sister-in-law too much, I hardly get the chance to be close to her.”

”Isn’t this already being close?” Ye Xuan glared at her: ”You’re so grown up, yet you don’t know to change your temper. When we came, were you arguing with Second Aunt?”

”Can you blame me? She is annoying.” Ye Qinghe rolled her eyes: ”A perfectly good pot of soup, ruined by just one thing.”

Ye Xuan shook his head helplessly: ”Ye’er, look at her sharp tongue, nowhere as mild as Qing Zhu’s temperament.”

”Big brother is always so nice to sister, never close to me.” Ye Qinghe clung to Luo Ye’s arm and shook it: ”Little sister-in-law, you have to take my side in the future.”

Luo Ye felt uncomfortable: ”Just call me Luo Ye.”

”That won’t do, if I dare to call little sister-in-law by her name...” Ye Qinghe pretended to shiver: ”Brother would skin me alive.”

Ye Xuan glanced at her: ”Can you drop that ’little’?”

”Ye’er is younger than me; calling her sister-in-law feels awkward, ’little sister-in-law’ is both dear and comfortable.” Ye Qinghe eyed Luo Ye and sighed in admiration: ”Now I understand why big brother is so enchanted by little sister-in-law. Look at her demeanor, her eyes, her aura... Basically, for big brother, just being pretty is not enough, little sister-in-law meets all his criteria for a partner, assessment complete!”

”You.” Ye Xuan tapped her head: ”Learn from Qing Zhu to be more composed.”

”Big brother, you’re too biased, always siding with my sister. From childhood, you ignored me. Luckily, now that we have little sister-in-law, finally, I have some support...”

Luo Ye felt uneasy from what Ye Qinghe said and focused her gaze on Da Hei at Grandpa’s feet, her lips unconsciously curling up while watching.

The little creature sat with its front paws on the ground, its small head nodding bit by bit, eyes closing and then struggling to open... ”Thud!” The body tipped over to the ground, the dazed little creature quickly picked itself up and sat upright, looking around in panic, seemingly trying to understand what just happened.

Luo Ye forcibly held back a laugh and pointed towards Grandpa, only to see Grandpa also with closed eyes, his head nodding bit by bit... She quickly nudged Ye Xuan: ”Great Grandpa is sleepy, let’s take him back to his room.”

”Okay.” Ye Xuan also smiled seeing Grandpa’s state, softly whispering: ”Great Grandpa, too tired today? Look how sleepy you are, let’s go back to sleep.”

”After the nap, I’ll come find you to play, and I won’t be a third wheel for now.” Ye Qinghe waved her hand and quickly said goodbye to everyone, returning to her room.

Ye Xuan and Luo Ye greeted the elders and were helping Grandpa to the door when they heard Ye Qinglian’s shrill voice: ”If you can’t make it, then don’t bother coming again ever!”

Ye Xuan shook his head: ”This older sister, her temper is terrible, only Zhong Shan can tolerate her.”

Luo Ye, cautious of Great Grandpa’s presence, didn’t join the conversation, but she pondered internally. Ye Xuan mentioned that the Ye brothers were united, but now it seemed that while the brotherhood seemed okay, the sister-in-laws had some issues.

If she wasn’t mistaken, this Second Aunt seemed to be the kind who always wanted to be on top, always suppressing Ye Xuan’s mom and possibly other sister-in-laws.

From her observations, Fifth Aunt was very well-tempered. Although Su Sha was somewhat hostile towards her, she managed to endure well in the sister-in-law relationships. She wondered why the Ye Family allowed Si Yue to stir up trouble like this.

Moreover, there seemed to be some coolness between Su Sha and Ye Jian. Could it be her imagination?

First update from Nu’an.

PS: Regarding the subsequent development, Nu’an can briefly explain that the trip to Ye Family and the Qiao Family relationship will gradually introduce another subplot that supports and is crucial for upgrading the main storyline. When the story concludes one day, Nu’an will tell everyone that this subplot is not only important for the development of the story but also another reason. Hope you are still around by then!
