Chapter 203: 203 pleading for mercy on behalf of his mother
“Wenyu, the family has already divided, and the affairs of your second branch are your own now. You think it was your grandmother who blocked your mother’s return, right?” Ye Jiu asked.
“I don’t think so. I know my mother is at fault, but she is still my mother. She hasn’t had a single good day at my maternal grandparents’ house recently, nor has she had a full meal. The last time she came back, she had lost a lot of weight and even had to take care of all the household chores for my grandmother’s family every day,” Ye Wenyu knew Mrs. Zhao deserved a lesson, but a son does not despise his mother’s ugliness; what could he really do about his own birth mother?
Moreover, “Aunt, I know our family’s days will only get better from now on, but I don’t want to be without a mother, and I also don’t want… to let my father marry a stepmother and bring her home.”
The soap business of the Ye Family was almost known to everyone in the village; after learning that Mrs. Zhao was driven away, there were even matchmakers coming home to propose alliances for his father.
Fortunately, his grandmother was in a bad mood during this time, so she directly scolded the matchmakers away.
However, the situation prickled Ye Wenyu’s heart, making him constantly worry that his father would really bring a stepmother home.
At 14 years old, when talking about his own mother, his tone carried the sentiment of being frustrated but not completely disappointed.
Ye Jiu could very well understand Ye Wenyu, but even so, she had no say over Mrs. Zhao’s matters.
“Wenyu, our family is not unreasonable. The reason your mother was sent back was not without cause. I can understand that you want her back, but have you thought, with your mother’s habits of taking things to her maternal home, it might not be a big deal now since the branches have divided, but how will your second branch manage in the future?” Ye Jiu looked at Ye Wenyu.
“I…” A look of embarrassment flashed across Ye Wenyu’s face, then he continued, “I… I will talk to my mother and ask her to break this habit. I will also keep an eye on her in the future, so she won’t take things back to the Zhao’s Family again.”
“It’s good that you have made a decision in your heart. I will try to persuade your grandmother about it. As for your mother, as long as your father does not mind, the opinions of others really don’t matter,” Ye Jiu said.
She, after all, was educated in the new era. Marriage is a matter between two people; as long as his brother doesn’t mind, even if Mrs. Zhao clears out their house, it only affects their branch of the family.
“Thank you, Aunt.” Ye Wenyu felt he should be happy because Ye Jiu was willing to help.
However, Ye Jiu also made it clear that their side of the family had already split, which left Ye Wenyu feeling quite unpleasant.

Comfortingly patting Ye Wenyu’s shoulder, Ye Jiu turned and left.
The soap business was originally something Ye Jiu thought of for the family, asking each household to contribute twenty taels of silver, also because Ye Jiu did not want the family members to develop a greedy character, thinking that they could get their way by causing a fuss.
Moreover, Ye Jiu planned to leave the soap business completely to them. She would not interfere, and as for how far they could go in the future, that was up to them.
That night, Ye Jiu finally slept a sound and comfortable sleep.
The next morning, Mrs. Zhang and her son, along with Ye Wenyu, were busy with the soap business.
Ye Gaosheng was looking for Ye Jiu, who was not at home, and Mrs. He had no interest, so currently, Mrs. Zhang was managing everything.
However, the money still had to be handed over to Mrs. He.
