Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 820: Chapter 820: How Did You Promise Us?

Xia Dongxue didn’t expect her son would come back, and seeing the girl by her son’s side made her smile even more joyfully: ”You little rascal, bringing Anxin back without giving me a heads-up, I’m so unprepared.”

Just as she finished speaking, her second son also walked through the door, with his partner Wei Fangfang following behind: ”Did you plan this together?”

Ye Wenhui and Ye Wenhao exchanged a glance and simultaneously shook their heads, saying: ”No, just a coincidence.”

Xia Dongxue didn’t press further, hastily greeting Xiang Anxin and Wei Fangfang: ”Anxin, Fangfang, come in quickly and have a seat.”

Xiang Anxin noticed she was still holding something in her hands: ”Auntie, we aren’t disturbing you, are we?”

Xia Dongxue followed her gaze to the item in her hands: ”It’s nothing, really. I was just thinking that my Yunyi would be coming home soon, and I’m preparing to change the curtain for her.”

At this moment, the voice of youngest Ye Wenyang came from outside: ”The curtains are perfectly fine, why change them?”

Xia Dongxue didn’t think much of it and responded casually: ”Of course, it’s to change them to the color your sister likes.”

Ye Wenyang was not convinced: ”Even if you change the curtains, she might not necessarily come back to live here, wouldn’t it be a wasted effort? Besides, changing curtains doesn’t require cloth coupons, you’d be better off saving those to make me a set of clothes.”

The moment he spoke, the room fell silent as if you could hear a pin drop.

Xia Dongxue kept staring at the youngest for quite a while before speaking: ”Ye Wenyang, what on earth did my daughter do to offend you? Why are you always targeting her?”

Ye Wenyang saw his mother truly getting angry and murmured under his breath: ”Can’t even speak the truth now?”

Xia Dongxue, who was initially in a good mood, now had tears welling in her eyes: ”I carefully raised someone else’s child, while my daughter was abandoned in the snowy cold. I just want to make amends to my daughter, is that wrong too?”

Ye Wenhui quickly stood up: ”Wenyang, what’s wrong with you?”

Ye Wenyang knew if he kept arguing, he’d incur everyone’s wrath: ”I was wrong, okay? Besides, what did I even say, can’t anyone talk anymore?”

Ye Wenhui and Ye Wenhao could certainly understand what Wenyang was thinking, though Wen Yue is innocent, isn’t Yunyi innocent too?

Ye Wenhao’s face also turned sullen at this point, and he pulled Ye Wenyang straight into the room: ”How did you promise us before?”

Ye Wenyang actually knew he shouldn’t target Chuyunyi, his own sister, but thinking about Sister Wenyue’s current situation, he wanted to stand up for her. Why couldn’t they keep Sister Wenyue in the Main Consort, and insist on letting her return to the Third Branch?

It left Sister Wenyue with no home now.

Sometimes, when he complained about family members in front of Sister Wenyue, she would turn around to console him, which made his heart ache for Sister Wenyue even more, thinking about how much she must be hurting inside.

Just as the atmosphere was growing awkward, Wen Yue walked in with a bag of oranges: ”I’m back.”

Back when Ye Bingyu and Xia Dongxue sent Wen Yue back to the Third Branch, they said: It was just a matter of everyone going back to their own houses, each finding their own mother, but the Main Consort would always be Wen Yue’s home, telling her not to become estranged from the family.

Although Wen Yue wasn’t their biological daughter, she is still a relative by blood, not to mention being cherished and cared for over a decade, this kind of familial bond isn’t something you can just sever easily.

But after the incident, the mindset was no longer the same.

Wen Yue indeed found it hard to accept that she wasn’t the biological daughter of the Main Consort, believing she had stolen everything from Yunyi, so she kept avoiding.
