Although it was late at night, the lobby of the Ye family was brightly lit and noisy. There was a sound of cooking in the kitchen.
When Xiao Yan entered the door, he didn't mention much, only a wild ginseng, which was given as a gift by local officials when he was in the north. It has been years.
The Ye family lacks nothing. Xiao Yan's taking anything is superfluous. It's better to take something that can be met and can't be asked for.
However, when Xiao Yan walked into the lobby of the Ye family, he was a little confused, which was much different from his imagination.
In a villa area, there is an old house in Chaoshan area. The pattern of this house is called xiashanhu, which is very similar to the "one seal" pattern of Dali Bai nationality.
There is a patio in the middle, a lobby in the middle, bedrooms on both sides, and a dragon and tiger gate, which has very regional characteristics. Ye's hometown is in that area. The old man is used to living in an old house, so he simply built a house here.
At the moment, the old man was sitting in the middle of the lobby, surrounded by seven or eight five or six-year-old children, playing and very lively.
Ye min walked over with Xiao Yan, then said a few words in the old man's ear, and then pointed to Xiao Yan.
The old man raised his head and his face was red. Originally, he was kind, but when he saw Xiao Yan, he put it away and showed his dignity in officialdom.
He waved.
"Baby, stop making trouble and hurry over to mom!"
In the blink of an eye, a group of children were called back by the women chatting in the next room, and soon the lobby was quiet.
Xiao Yan handed the wild mountain ginseng. The old man looked at it and put it on the altar in the back. Turned around and said, "are you Xiao Yan?"
"Hello, Mr. Ye, I'm Xiao Yan." Xiao Yan nodded, then looked up at the old man, not afraid of his momentum.
It is said that people can't judge by appearance, but sometimes people's appearance can still show people's identity and status.
Although old Ye is old, he has a broad body and no camel on his back. He is full of energy and spirit. He should have regular health preservation.
"I've got my license and call me Grandpa?" Grandpa Ye was upset and slapped the table.
Xiao Yan quickly put on a smiling face and said, "your momentum is like a rainbow. I'm scared in front of you. I lost my mouth when I was nervous. You want me to call dad. Listen, I can call."
"Call Abba, this is the name of our hometown." Ye min reminded Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan was about to shout. Suddenly, someone in the next room said sadly, "the banquet was not set up and there was no wine to toast. It's beautiful to want to marry our Ye family's daughter!"
Xiao Yan turned his head and saw a middle-aged man coming out of the next room. A Cantonese old man's face, wearing a flowered shirt, white pants and a gold necklace, is very fashionable.
"This is Ye Jincheng, the fifth uncle, who does business in his hometown and supports Ye Ziming." Ye min briefly introduced him to Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan quickly judged that this person was in charge of the Ye family's economy. Nuo Da's family expenses came from him.
Of course, in terms of business, it is up to him to take care of it, not to support the expenses of a family.
Nevertheless, ye Jincheng, who holds the economic lifeline, certainly has a high position in the Ye family.
It's no wonder Ye Wufeng can't take the position of successor. Ye Jincheng supports Ye Ziming. When making choices, the Ye family will think about whether they will be deducted from the monthly supply next.
Although this person is not right with himself, Xiao Yan still needs to do well.
He took the initiative to reach out to Ye Jincheng and said, "Hello, fifth uncle, I'm Xiao Yan."
"Young man, don't yell. I won't recognize you as my nephew and son-in-law if you don't have a big banquet or invite me to a wedding wine." Ye Jincheng didn't give face and didn't shake hands with Xiao Yan at all.
A trace of anger flashed in Xiao Yan's heart. Ye min grabbed his other hand for fear that he would be angry on the spot.
"Old five, you're even embarrassed by young people. You're not afraid to be laughed at when it comes out. Colonel Xiao, haven't seen you for a long time." a middle-aged man came out of the next room.
He took a few quick steps and came forward to hold Xiao Yan's outstretched hand, which just solved Xiao Yan's embarrassment.
Xiao Yan was stunned and recognized major general Ye Jinxian. He smiled and said, "it's Ye Jiangjun."
When they let go, Xiao Yan wanted to salute and was stopped by Ye Jinxian.
"It's at home. I don't care so much. Just call me fourth uncle. Come and sit!" Ye Jinxian took Xiao Yan and sat on the wooden sofa.
I don't know the daughter of several rooms nearby is making tea. Ye Min said, "Fangfang, my name is uncle."
"Wow, my uncle is so handsome and young!" the little girl looked up and exclaimed.
Ye min's father, ye Laozi, the master of the Ye family, looked at Xiao Yan and didn't speak any more. He directed the people to move the table for supper.
Xiao Yan wanted to visit the old man quietly and have a good contact with the Ye family another day, but he didn't expect that the family would get together for a snack at ordinary times.
In less than a moment, ye Ziming, dressed in a suit and carrying a briefcase, also came.
When the stool was set, Ye Feng came with Ye Wufeng who changed his clothes.
However, what surprised Xiao Yan was that ye Wufeng came here wearing a Zhongshan suit in order to learn from him.
Now the material of Zhongshan suit is almost the same as that of suit. It is quite straight. It doesn't have so many wrinkles in the past. It is very slim and straight.
Xiao Yan saw Ye Wufeng and felt much more pleasing to the eye.
But ye Jincheng quit. He slapped his chopsticks, turned his head and pointed to Ye Wufeng: "Wufeng, I didn't say you. You wear this white and wear filial piety? Your father has died for so many years. Who do you wear it for? Your fifth grandpa?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yan quit directly.
