Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 665: Leaving Ye Fei Out
"I’m ready. I’ll wear this outfit to the old house." Xu Huizhen got dressed, looked in the mirror, and was quite satisfied with herself.
Ye Ning frowned, "Do you have any other clothes?"
"Not good-looking?" Xu Huizhen was not pleased and turned sideways in front of the mirror to check herself, "I think it’s pretty nice."
Ye Ning wanted to say the outfit made her look like a nouveau riche.
So she opened the wardrobe, and then Ye Ning fell silent.
Xu Huizhen’s clothes were all similar styles, truly leaving no room for choice.
"Alright, let’s just go with this." Ye Ning said helplessly.
Ye Dezhang also picked out a suit to put on.
Xu Huizhen put on some makeup again.
Only then did the three set off to the old house.
Actually, the address of the old house is not a secret.
If you really want to find it, it can be done.
However, if you have ill intentions towards the two elders, it’s simply impossible to succeed.
The surroundings of the old house appear very calm, but in reality, Zhao Family’s bodyguards are protecting it.
This group of bodyguards are retired Hidden Guards, coming down from Lanshan Courtyard.
Even though they reached retirement age at Lanshan Courtyard, they are under 30 years old, more than enough to protect the old house.
Because the requirements at Lanshan Courtyard are extremely strict.
Even if retired from Lanshan Courtyard, elsewhere they remain elites among elites.
If you truly harbor malicious intent towards the old house, it’s simply impossible to get close.
As for those who want to curry favor with the two elders, they’re even more afraid of rashly visiting the house.
Such behavior is incredibly impolite and angers the two elders, leaving them with no good outcome.
So generally, anyone with a bit of sense, even if they know the address of the two elders, wouldn’t dare to visit lightly.
Given that’s the case, whether or not to research the address doesn’t matter.
So simply, it’s not worth the effort to investigate it.
Ye Ning spoke grandly, while Ye Dezhang and Xu Huizhen fancied themselves quite courteous.
Arriving in B City, they went straight to meet the in-laws.
They only knew the high status of the Eight Great Families, but had no clear, specific understanding.
Unaware that many in B City knew the address of the old house, but no one dared to go.
One could only say that the three from the Ye Family were fearless due to ignorance.
After leaving the hotel, Ye Dezhang said, "Should we buy some gifts to take over?"
"After all, it’s the first time visiting the in-laws, we can’t be without manners." Ye Dezhang said.
"Buy what?" Upon hearing about spending money for others, even for the Zhao Family, Xu Huizhen was unwilling. "The Zhao Family is so rich, what haven’t they got? What haven’t they seen?"
"I bet the gifts sent by family are piled like a mountain, nowhere to put them. They can’t even use or consume everything before it expires. No matter what we send, they won’t consider it." Xu Huizhen pursed her lips.
"Too expensive, too luxurious, we can’t afford to give. Besides, who sends such costly stuff when they just come over? But if we send something ordinary, they won’t look at it either."
"They might even mock us behind our backs for giving subpar gifts." Xu Huizhen said with a sneer, "The Zhao Family won’t ever see us as equals, no matter what we do. So why bother bringing anything?"
"Besides, in the eyes of the Zhao Family, we’re just poor relatives. Given that’s the case, we don’t need to be so particular." Xu Huizhen thought this was just fine.
"Moreover, this time we’re going to the Zhao Family to demand justice. It’s because the Zhao Family doesn’t value Ye Fei, doesn’t acknowledge us as in-laws, let alone observe the most basic etiquettes in marrying Ye Fei." Xu Huizhen elaborated.
"Since we’re going to demand justice, there’s no need to be so polite." Xu Huizhen said.
"Ning Ning, don’t you think so!" Xu Huizhen said.
Ye Ning said with a stern face, "We still need to bring something. Going with empty hands, what does that say? They’ve already looked down on us so much. Going empty-handed would only garner more contempt."
"Even if we can’t reach an agreement with the Zhao Family this time regarding Ye Fei’s issue, we must let them know that our family isn’t what they presume—a small and humble household." Ye Ning said.
Ye Dezhang nodded in agreement from the backseat, "Right, this is better for Ye Fei too. Otherwise, if the Zhao Family views us as impolite, they’ll also look down on Ye Fei, wouldn’t we be sabotaging ourselves?"
Xu Huizhen did not expect Ye Ning to disagree with her view.
Could it be that Ye Ning is actually so considerate of Ye Fei?
But even if they cared so much for Ye Fei, Ye Fei wouldn’t appreciate their efforts.
Thinking about it, Xu Huizhen decided not to say this in front of Ye Dezhang and secretly sent a WeChat message to Ye Ning.
After a while, she received Ye Ning’s reply: "Being courteous to the Zhao Family and leaving them with a good impression can only benefit us."
"We’re going to the Zhao Family not for Ye Fei, but to ensure our development in B City goes more smoothly."
"Zhao Family elders originally disliked Ye Fei. Upon further thought, Zhao Gushen said they don’t consider us as in-laws, probably because the Zhao Family doesn’t like Ye Fei."
"They think Ye Fei is not presentable, and because of the poor impression of Ye Fei, they assume our family is the same, thinking we’re also not presentable."
Xu Huizhen frustratedly typed, "Our family is being dragged down by that brat!"
"The brat never brought any benefits to the family, but she sure never missed a chance to drag us down!" Xu Huizhen typed in anger.
Xu Huizhen didn’t think there was anything wrong with her own family at all.
She even prided herself on being presentable in public, sociable, able to chat with anyone, and having a wide range of social connections.
"So, we need to let the Zhao Family know we’re not like Ye Fei. They might have a bad impression of Ye Fei, but they can’t think the same of us. If because of Ye Fei, they refuse to help our family, that would be a loss not worth it."
"Therefore, we must leave a good impression on the two elders in the Zhao Family, so they understand that our family is a family that understands manners. If there’s something wrong, it’s Ye Fei’s own doing."
"Even if ultimately we can’t resolve the marriage issue with Ye Fei, we’re still in-laws. We can completely separate from Ye Fei and continue our dealings with the Zhao Family."
"As long as we build a good relationship with the Zhao Family, there’s nothing to worry about for our development in B City," Ye Ning replied. "At that point, we won’t need to care about Ye Fei’s well-being. Even if Ye Fei gets dumped by Zhao Gushen, once our foundation in B City is settled, we won’t rely on Ye Fei for anything."
Xu Huizhen suddenly understood, and her reluctance to spend money on gifts vanished.
If they truly form a good relationship with the Zhao Family, what’s a little money?
Moreover, they could even detach from Ye Fei.
Let Ye Fei watch helplessly as they maintain a good relationship with the Zhao Family, while she remains unwelcomed.
Wouldn’t that torment her, anger her, frustrate her!
Just imagining Ye Fei watching them thrive and live well,
while all her efforts turn out in vain, made Xu Huizhen happy.
