The Demon Queen of Divine Doctor is not to be trifled with

Chapter 301 Why do you do that?

Dannuo was holding a food box in her hand. When Ye Wenyan asked, she put the food box on the table, opened it layer by layer, and took out two plates of dumplings and two plates of side dishes.

The dumplings are already cold, and not as neat and tidy as when they were just cooked. When they are cold, the dumplings will clump together, and the skin will stick to each other, and they will break when you pinch them.

Mrs. Mu's face was not looking good. She put her chopsticks on the table and didn't want to eat anymore. Dannuo said, "This was sent to the second young lady. It was sent early. As soon as the first pot was finished, it was brought to Bailanxuan. But the second young lady didn't eat it. She just asked someone to send all the food boxes back, saying that she would not eat charity. She also said that if our wife really cared, she should have called her to eat together. Why can you all sit at the same table happily, but only leave her alone, and send her a mouthful of food like a beggar." Dannuo sighed as he spoke, "In short, no one ate it. How could it be sent back the same way as it was sent."

Ye Qingmei stood up, put the dumplings and vegetables back into the food box, and handed it to her maid Ruizhu. "Take it back to our courtyard, so I can have something to eat tonight. Don't waste such delicious shrimp dumplings if she doesn't eat them, I haven't had enough yet!"

Ruizhu said nothing and immediately left with the food box. Ye Qingmei sat back down and said to Mu: "I used to have the same thoughts as mother. I felt that she was taken away by the old lady when she was young. It was really pitiful, so I always gave her more. But she should also understand that giving in is a favor, and not giving in is also a duty. No one owes anyone anything. It would have been fine if she didn't know about our situation before, but now she can see it clearly. Why did we end up in this situation? It's because we are not on good terms with the old lady. So she should also understand that it was not your intention to take her away at the beginning. The old lady was really strong."

Ye Qingmei seldom said such things before, but ever since Ye Wenyan came back from Prince Su's Mansion, all the things that happened at home have fundamentally changed her attitude towards this family.

"She always said that we owed her since we were little, so she kept asking us to compensate her and asking for things from us. You haven't forgotten all this, right, mother?" Ye Qingmei helped Mu recall. "Before the age of five, the old lady came to us in the name of Lianmian to ask for things. Mother, you thought it was right to give them to us, after all, she was your child, so you gave almost everything the old lady wanted. After the age of five, Lianmian came to ask for things herself, from small things like clothes and jewelry to big things like good land deeds. Mother is the eldest lady, in charge of the household expenses, and there are so many eyes watching her, so she naturally can't take advantage of the public, so she gave out her own dowry. As time went by, the many dowry boxes you brought with you when you married into the Ye family with a grand wedding dress became less and less every day, and now even one box is not full. Mother, isn't this enough? What do we owe her?"

Ye Wenyan cast an approving look at Ye Qingmei. Of all the people in the family, she was originally most worried about Ye Qingmei's temper. She was too easy to talk to, too easy to manipulate, and she was the easiest one to bully in the eldest house. Anyone could bully her. She had always been thinking about giving Ye Qingmei a good lesson when she had the chance, letting her know that life is dangerous, and if she continued to be weak like before, she would not only suffer herself, but also bring trouble to her family.

But now it seems that this lesson is no longer necessary. After so many years, Ye Qingmei has grown up and has a clearer understanding of this family. So now she can say something like this to Mu Shi, but she doesn't know if Mu Shi will listen to her.

She stood up and prepared to leave. After all, she was an outsider. It would be fine if everyone kept it to themselves on normal days, but at this moment, when such a topic was being discussed, it would be inappropriate for her to join in.

Whether Ye Lianmian is a good person or a bad person, and how to treat her daughter in the future, Ye Qingmei can say such things, but she cannot.

So when she wanted to leave, she stood up, but was grabbed by Mu and pulled back into the chair.

She sighed softly, "Mom, I have something else to do in my room."

"Your room is fine." Madam Mu said firmly, "Yan'er, you are also my child. I nurtured your flesh and blood and bones in my belly. I fed you mouthful by mouthful after you were born. You are no different from your elder sister and second sister. Your elder sister said this today, and you can say it too. Your elder sister is there, and you are there too."

Nanny Ji took a group of servants out and closed the door gently from the outside.

Madam Mu then continued, "I have never owed anyone anything in my life, except for this daughter, whom I have owed since she was born. But then I thought about it, and it's actually just like Qingmei said, I have given her the compensation she deserves, and she has gotten everything she wanted, except for the affection I gave her since she was a child. But maybe this affection is what she values most, so she has always felt that she was the one who was abandoned, and she has resentment towards both me and your father."

"But we have paid enough for this relationship." Ye Qingmei lowered his head and said this, then looked at Ye Wenyan, "If we really have to say what we owe, we owe Yan'er, not Lianmian. If we could have found out earlier on the second day of the twelfth lunar month, if we had fought to the death and ran out of the mansion earlier, maybe we could have stopped the wedding sedan, or at least we could have rushed into Prince Su's mansion with Yan'er. Compared to Yan'er, we really don't owe Lianmian anything."

Ye Qingmei covered her face and started crying. Ye Wenyan saw the tears flowing through her fingers and didn't know how to comfort her for a moment. He could only reach out his hand to wipe her tears a few times, and then gently said: "Don't cry, I'm still here."

Ye Qingmei grabbed her hand and nodded vigorously, "Luckily you are here. If you were gone, who knows what this family would become. Yan'er, we don't owe anyone anything, right?"

Ye Wenyan nodded, "Yes, I don't owe it to anyone. Your life is given by your parents, but your life depends on yourself. You have to choose which path to take, and you can't let others decide or control you."

"But Lianmian didn't think so." Ye Qingmei said, "In fact, when we were making dumplings, we sent someone to call her, but she didn't come, saying that she couldn't do such rough work. If we wanted to, we could just ask her to eat with us. But we wanted to wait for you, so we asked her if she wanted to wait with us. She said no, so we cooked a pot and sent it to her first. You see, this is the outcome. Yan'er, what do you think we should do with her? Don't refuse, you are our sister, you have the right to speak."

Ye Wenyan smiled bitterly. What power could she have? It was wrong to say it too deeply, and it was useless to say it too shallowly. Ye Lianmian was Mu's biological child. No mother in the world could really hate him that much.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Ye Qingmei stopped asking questions, and Mu Shi also stopped talking. The three of them sat quietly in the room, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

Later, it was Mu who broke the silence first, but she changed the subject. She took something out of her sleeve and handed it to Ye Wenyan, "Yan'er, this is for you."

She took it and looked at it, and found that it was the title deed of Baipinxiang that she had just brought back from Lin'an Prefecture yesterday.

"Why did mother give me this?" She was puzzled. "This is mother's shop. She finally got it back." Madam Mu pushed again and said, "It's for you. I don't have many decent things left. Over the years, I gave them all to Lianmian, who then gave them to the old lady. Even the dowry I originally left for Qingmei is gone. This is the best restaurant in the inner city of Lin'an. I won't feel at ease no matter where I put it. You have to keep it so that she won't worry about it anymore."

Ye Wenyan thought about it and said, "Okay, I'll keep it for mother. When mother needs it, she can ask me for it."

Mu shook his head and said, "I don't want it. I'm giving it to you. Go to the government office to change the name and register it. It will be your own business in the future. Run it however you want. If you don't like the restaurant, do something else. Anyway, no matter how you use it, it's yours. I'm happy that it's yours."

Madam Mu reached out her hand and stroked her head twice. "Good child, I heard everything. You gave the Li Family Clinic in the inner city to your brother, and the shop next door to your sister. You care so much about your brother and sister, but have you ever thought about what you have left? These things should have been done by me as a mother, but I am incapable of doing them. You helped me do it, and I am relieved and grateful. You have to keep this restaurant. Just think of it as a way for me to behave like a mother, and don't let my children look down on you."

"Mom!" Ye Wenyan advised Mu, "No one looks down on you. At least my elder brother and sister and I respect you."

"Take it if you want to show your respect. I'm your mother. What's wrong with a mother giving something to her daughter? Isn't that what I should do?"

Ye Qingmei also said, "You just told me not to be distant. I didn't refuse your shop, so why don't you take the things mother gave you? She is our mother. No matter what she gives us, it's because mother loves us. Just keep it."

The three of them were talking, and Ye Wenyan was holding the deed. At this moment, Zhuier shouted loudly from the yard: "Second Miss, why are you here? Are you looking for the lady? Have you eaten?"

This voice was obviously a warning. Ye Qingmei stood up and subconsciously pushed the deed in Ye Wenyan's hand, meaning that you should put it away quickly and don't let Lianmian see it. But it was too late. Ye Lianmian suddenly opened the door and saw what Ye Wenyan was holding in his hand. He turned his face at that time.

"What did you take? What good stuff did you get secretly?" Ye Lianmian walked into the house while talking, and a few steps later he was in front of Ye Wenyan. "The title deed? To Baipinxiang?" She was almost shocked, and asked Mu directly - "You actually gave Baipinxiang to her? So you three did such a big deal in the house behind my back? Mu Qianqiu, on what basis?"

Ye Wenyan's expression changed instantly...
