Chapter 153 Parents
In the Su family's big tent, a couple in their fifties were hunched over, packing things for the host. Suddenly, the door curtain was lifted. As they were about to turn around to greet each other, they heard a familiar voice with a hint of tears.
"Dad, Mom!" Xiao Ye stood at the door, holding the door curtain with his hands reluctant to let go. Su Minglang looked inside, smiled with relief, then turned and left, leaving the space for the three people who had not seen each other for a long time.
“Ye, Ye Zi!” The woman was the first to react and hugged Xiao Ye into her arms. Tears as big as beans dripped down her cheeks and sank into her collar. “My child, my child!”
"Mother..." Xiao Ye choked and stretched out his hand, gently pressing it on the woman's back. The tears in his eyes could no longer be held back and flowed out.
The man stood aside and watched the warm scene in front of him. His eyes sparkled but he was stubborn and refused to let go. "Okay, okay! It's a great joy to see the girl. Stop crying!"
The woman wiped the tears from her eyes and gently loosened her arms, holding Xiaoye's face and looking at it carefully. After a while, tears could not be stopped from flowing again: "Ye Zi, my poor child, it's all because of your useless parents! Look how thin you are, is your life in the palace not easy?"
"I'm fine, mom!" Xiao Ye held the woman's hand and wiped away her tears. "Everyone says that thinner people look better."
"The master takes good care of me. I haven't suffered much in the palace, really!" Xiao Ye said seriously: "If it weren't for the master, we don't know when we can meet each other!"
"Alas!" The woman sighed, the worry between her brows not fading at all, "Miss Lang was not taken seriously at home, and when the emperor wanted to choose a concubine, the master pushed Miss up without a second thought. If your parents were not incompetent, they would never let you suffer with them!"
"This palace is not a place for people to stay. If the nobles are not happy, they will lose their heads. Even if they want you to serve the old lady, it is better than entering the palace!"
"Nonsense!" The man interrupted the woman with a frown, "I think Miss Lang is a capable woman. Ye Zi will definitely have a bright future if she follows her. At least it's better than us working hard all our lives without any hope!"
"But that!" The woman was about to say something, but suddenly stopped when she saw Xiaoye. "Forget it. Anyway, it's already like this now. Ye Zi, mother doesn't ask you to be rich and powerful in the future, but I hope you can live a peaceful life."
"I know, mother." Xiao Ye looked at her with a smile, took a long breath to suppress the emotions in his heart and said with a smile: "By the way, the master said that he will be released from the house when the prince gets married!"
"Really?" Her father's eyes widened and he asked, "Ye Zi, are you telling the truth?"
No matter how capable these servants are, as long as their master doesn't say anything, they will be slaves for the rest of their lives. Not only themselves, but also their future generations will be slaves in this mansion.
It is the wish of every married man to be free one day, but very few can have such great fortune.
"Really!" Xiao Ye nodded heavily, the joy in his eyes about to overflow, "Oh, and this too!"
Xiaoye took out a small sachet from her bosom. The sachet was bulging but without any spices. She opened it and saw that it was filled with silver coins. "These are what I saved for my brother to use when he gets married."
"These gold leaves are rewards from my master. Don't underestimate them because they are just a few pieces. They are more valuable than my small change!" Xiao Ye handed over all his assets to his mother.
"This, this is not possible!" The woman hesitated and looked at the man while holding the change.
"No! Your brother's marriage will naturally be arranged by his parents, how can they use your money!" The father stuffed the silver back into Xiaoye's hand, "You need money to run the palace, so keep it for yourself so that you can add a dowry in the future."
"Don't worry, Ye Zi. Not only will your parents let your brother find a wife, they will also marry you off in style!"
Xiao Ye thought for a moment, picked out the gold leaves and handed them back, "These small pieces of silver are fine, but the gold leaves are a reward from the master, so just take them."
Seeing that his father was about to refuse again, Xiao Ye hurriedly said, "If you don't accept it, I won't be able to explain to the master."
"Take it, father!" The woman tugged at the man's sleeve from behind. The man sighed helplessly and put the golden leaf carefully against his body, "Ye Zi, you..."
"Is it almost done?" A voice came from outside the door, and everyone fell silent instantly.
"Okay, Dad and Mom, you guys go ahead and do your work. I'm leaving first." Xiao Ye pulled the corners of his mouth and forced a smile. "I have to stay here for at least three days this time. We can meet again."
"Okay!" The man patted the woman on the back, stepped forward and said, "Go back, Ye Zi. Take care of yourself."
"Yeah!" Xiao Ye nodded with a smile, glanced at his mother who was lowering her head, turned around and left silently. Soon a whimpering sound was heard from the room.
Xiao Ye forced herself to nod to the person outside the door, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she returned to the tent. She leaned to the side and closed her eyes tightly, but tears flowed down the corners of her eyes.
As soon as Nanxing entered the room, she saw Xiaoye sitting in the corner. She thought about it and didn't know what to say to comfort her, so she simply stepped out to give her space to cry her heart out.
Fortunately, Xiaoye calmed down quickly and began to organize the things she brought into the house in an orderly manner. Nanxing had been guarding the door. When he heard the noise inside, he went in and followed her to pack up.
The two people remained silent at the same time. Although there were no words of comfort, this calmness was the most precious understanding.
This was the harmonious scene that Su Minglang saw when he walked in, if he ignored Xiaoye’s swollen eyes.
"That's about it. Someone will be here to deliver dinner later. I've already told you two to stay and eat with me." Su Minglang didn't say anything to comfort her. He just put a leaf he had picked up from somewhere into Xiaoye's hand and said, "You have to get up early tomorrow, so go to bed early tonight."
"You two should stay here tonight. It's really scary to be alone in this remote place."
Xiao Ye nodded in agreement, and Nan Xing naturally had no objection. Su Minglang only brought the two of them with him, apart from the eunuchs assigned from the palace. The tent was big enough to accommodate three people.
"Your Majesty, dinner is ready. Shall we serve it to you now?" the eunuch outside the door asked through the door.
"Pass it on." Su Minglang took off his coat and handed it over.
After a while, a young eunuch came in with a food box. The dinner was not very sumptuous. Although this place was in the suburbs, it was far away from the imperial city and naturally not that comfortable.
Su Minglang picked out an egg and threw it into Xiaoye's arms, "Let's eat."
