Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 668: Such Strict Rules in the Zhao Family

Chapter 668: Chapter 668: Such Strict Rules in the Zhao Family

"Let them in," the old man said, "To be honest, I really want to see these three people."

This shameless family, the old man really wants to scold them face to face.

The old lady also wants to see them.

These three mistreated Ye Fei’s family.

"You don’t need to greet them personally," the old lady said.

Housekeeper Hong doesn’t personally welcome just anyone.

Aside from Ye Fei’s first visit, Housekeeper Hong greeted her personally.

This completely represents the attitude of the elder couple, very welcoming to Ye Fei.

And during New Year’s, people from the Eight Great Families come to pay their respects.

Housekeeper Hong would go out personally.

As for usual times, when Wei Zhiqian and others come to find Zhao Gushen, they naturally wouldn’t visit the old house.

Housekeeper Hong personally going out implies he values the guests.

After all, in the old house, apart from those with specific duties, only the elder couple resides.

It wouldn’t be appropriate for the elder couple to personally greet them, right?

Housekeeper Hong, besides the elder couple, holds the highest position and has the longest tenure in the old house.

Housekeeper Hong also feels the same way.

He doesn’t want to greet such shameless three people.

Giving them face!

Housekeeper Hong first opened the intercom: "Who is it?"

Xu Huizhen and Ye Dezhang were too nervous to speak.

Maybe it’s their psychological effect, but the two of them felt Housekeeper Hong’s voice was particularly imposing.

Indeed, sounding like the grand and dignified butler of a distinguished family.

Xu Huizhen tugged on Ye Ning’s arm, so Ye Ning said, "We are Ye Fei’s family, I’m her sister."

Ye Ning then moved aside, pulling Xu Huizhen and Ye Dezhang over, "These are my parents."

Xu Huizhen hurriedly said, "Also Ye Fei’s parents."

Housekeeper Hong’s expression didn’t change, of course, Ye Ning’s family couldn’t see his face.

"It’s improper to visit without notice," Ye Ning said, "It’s just because Ye Fei married Mr. Zhao, as in-laws, we came to visit the elder couple."

After a moment of silence over the intercom, Housekeeper Hong said nothing.

This brief silence made Ye Ning’s family tense.

The three of them did not dare to breathe heavily, feeling a nervous tension.

After a while, they heard Housekeeper Hong’s voice: "Please wait."

After that, there was no further response.

The three waited anxiously at the door, Xu Huizhen saw there was no sound from the intercom, and the other side should have already turned it off.

Only then did she softly say to Ye Ning, "Is the Zhao Family’s protocol really that grand?"

Ye Ning shook her head, not replying.

Xu Huizhen then said again, "Regardless of how the situation is, it’s too rude. Saying ’Please wait’ and then not responding, leaving guests waiting at the door without care."

"Even if wealthy, they shouldn’t be so dismissive!" Xu Huizhen said unhappily.

Such disregard for people!

Then, not long after she finished speaking, the vermilion door slowly opened before them.

A young man came out from inside.

Xu Huizhen couldn’t help but think, is this Housekeeper Hong?

The voice didn’t sound as young as this.

"Hello, please follow me," the young man said.

Though still polite, he maintained some distance, somewhat aloof.

Curiously, Xu Huizhen asked, "Are you Housekeeper Hong?"

"I’m not," the young man replied.

There’s no way they warranted the presence of Housekeeper Hong, not so much face to deserve.

"I’m just the one keeping guard at the door," the young man said.

He’s staff from the security room.

Not exactly a bodyguard from the old house, just responsible for watching the door’s surveillance.

Even though not as skilled as the old house’s bodyguards, it’s enough to keep an eye on the Ye family trio.

Walking along, Xu Huizhen felt like Granny Liu entering Grand View Garden.

Everything was fresh and awe-inspiring to her.

The garden scenery of the old house was indeed uniquely crafted, just like the legendary homes of ancient nobility and aristocrats.

All the way, Xu Huizhen looked wide-eyed.

Thinking, not to mention how much it cost to build this place, but even for daily maintenance, it wouldn’t be a small amount.

Xu Huizhen inwardly exclaimed.

Luckily, snow fell last night, covering the rockery and plants, adding an extra charm.

While walking, Xu Huizhen suddenly noticed beside the rockery in the courtyard.

A middle-aged man was cheerfully using a clean shovel to pile snow beside the rockery, building the snow high.

Beside the middle-aged man was a little boy.

Wearing a knitted hat, thick down jacket, and snow boots.

With small leather gloves on his hands.

His little face was flushed red from the cold.

Because of his fair skin, the redness stood out more.

Making his little face glisten like sculpted jade.

The middle-aged man shovels snow by the rockery while the little boy piles it up.

They look like they’re building a snowman.

And that little boy is Xiao Mo.

With last night’s heavy snowfall, Xiao Mo had been thinking about playing in the old house’s snow.

So early in the morning, Zhao Gushen had him sent to the old house to play.

Zhao Gushen was happy that this little guy found a place to go and wouldn’t pester them.

Just as he and Ye Fei could enjoy their world of two.

So the couple did not stay at the old house today, leaving Xiao Mo to play while they went out.

The snow-shoveler was the gardener of the old house, who was just keeping Xiao Mo company here.

Xu Huizhen pulled Ye Ning aside and softly said, "That child, is he a child of the servants here?"

Don’t say the old house has pretty good treatment, allowing even servants to bring their children in.

So thinking, Xu Huizhen suddenly felt that her family was not even as good as their servants.

At least the servants’ children could come freely.

But what about them?

"However, that kid is quite good-looking," Xu Huizhen said softly again.

She thought that speaking softly while lagging a bit behind with Ye Ning, the young man from the old house wouldn’t hear.

In reality, the young man heard everything clearly.

Walking ahead, Ye Ning’s family couldn’t see his expression.

The young man then coldly curled his lips.

They hadn’t even met their little master, didn’t know him, yet using Ye Fei’s family’s name to visit.

Truly shameless.

Xiao Mo saw them arrive, immediately stopped what he was doing, and hid behind the gardener, observing quietly.

Zhao Gushen had specially shown Xiao Mo photos of Ye Ning’s family to prevent any issues.

Let Xiao Mo recognize them to avoid going with them.

Thus, Xiao Mo wasn’t unfamiliar when he saw them.

Recognized them at first sight.

Unexpectedly, they came to the old house!

Xiao Mo saw Xu Huizhen looking over, quickly hid behind the gardener again.

Once they walked farther away, Xiao Mo promptly called Zhao Gushen.

Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei were at the cinema.

Interestingly, the two hadn’t had a proper date before.

Even before marriage, they hadn’t properly dated.
