Ye Ning looked confusedly toward the elder: "Dad, what's wrong? Why can't Mom come to eat? Has something happened to her?"
The old man's lips quivered a few times, his face suddenly becoming somewhat stiff.
Actually, he didn't want to confine that woman in the backyard during the New Year, but that damn boy said to keep her away from this daughter-in-law, so he had no choice but to comply.
He hesitated, next to him, the daughter-in-law, oblivious of past affairs, spoke up again: "Auntie, you don't need to look at Dad, just go and let her come over, say it's on my account, don't be afraid."
"Madam..."
"Go on, it's fine!" Ye Ning added, her expression entirely that of someone in charge.
Seeing this, the old servant, thinking of her current status in the estate, happily agreed and went off to the backyard.
The elder, upon seeing this, wanted to say something more, but after thinking it over, in the end, he decided not to interfere and let her do as she wished.
