Ye Xuan looked at his own mother, whose face was covered in tears and snot. Before he could respond, he heard Ye Mo addressing him, “Ye Xuan, it’s best you take your grave-digging mother home. Don’t blame me if I almost killed her!”
“Curse you, Ye Mo! You deserve to die for beating me up like this…” Ye Wushi swore non-stop when she heard him speak.
Ye Xuan hated to see his family making a scene like this, so he yelled at his mother, “That’s enough! Grandma, Mother, don’t ever lay a finger on Uncle Ye and Aunt Ye’s grave. If you continue like this, I won’t take the government exam!”
“Don’t do that, Xuan! Grandmother will listen to you. You have to take the test.”
“Yes, my dear Xuan. You can’t skip the exam. Your mother I will listen to you.”
Grandmother Ye and Ye Wushi immediately bent to his will. They swore never to lay a finger on the brothers’ parents’ graves.
“Then go home quickly, all of you! If you believe a word that fortune teller says again, I’ll move out!” Ye Xuan uttered some tough words. He could not stand their deliberate acts like this.
Grandmother Ye and Ye Wushi wanted to say something, but left immediately when they saw the grouchy look on his face.
Watching their backs as they fled, Ye Mo spoke to Ye Xuan, albeit in an unfriendly manner, “Future scholar, my lord, shouldn’t you hurry home to be with your books? Make haste for revision. Otherwise, if you fail again, who knows what crazy ideas that old hag in your family will think of next!”
Ye Yang merely glanced at Ye Xuan, saying nothing.
Ye Xuan paid no attention to Ye Mo’s mockery. Instead, he spoke in a serious tone, “Mo, what Grandmother did was wrong. Allow me to apologize to you, your family, Uncle Ye, and Aunt Ye, on her behalf – hers and my mother’s.”
With that, he bowed to them, and bowed another time to their parents’ graves, at ninety degrees.
Ye Mo rolled his eyes at Ye Xuan’s sincere apology and left. His trouble-making friend, Li Wazi left with him. On the contrary, Liu Duo felt that although Ye Xuan could be quite annoying, he had his merits.
Ye Yang nodded slightly. After all, this was not Ye Xuan’s intention, so he could notbe blamed.
Then he followed Ye Mo and left. Ye Ling and Liu Duo naturally caught up soon after.
Ye Xuan watched Liu Duo as she walked away. A smile hung on his face. He noticed that Liu Duo had seemed quite satisfied with his actions. He enjoyed the recognition from her, and he liked that she agreed with him.
Liu Duo returned home with the others. Ye Mo said to Li Wazi, “I can’t thank you enough. If you hadn’t come to inform us in time, our parents’ graves would have been destroyed by that old hag.”
“No need to thank me. You know who I am,” Li Wazi gave an earnest smile.
Ye Mo’s business was also Li Wazi’s business. It needn’t be clearly defined. Ye Mo had treated him very well, despite his nasty temper.
“At least Ye Xuan wasn’t like his grandmother, blaming others and doing outlandish things just because he failed the government exam,” said Liu Duo.
Hearing that, Ye Mo pulled a long face again and shouted, “Shut your mouth and stop speaking for them! He fully deserves to fail. Blame won’t do anything!”
Liu Duo furrowed her eyes. For starters, Ye Xuan’s actions were quite prim and proper. Why was it wrong for her to agree? Ridiculous. “What are you shouting at me for? Have you lost your mind?”
“Well, you have! You know how he is and yet you still praise him!” Ye Mo fretted. He had never been praised before, and here she was praising another man!
