The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife

Chapter 2659: Chapter 143: Aren’t You Going to Bring Your Wife Back to Serve Me?

Ye Haoxuan chuckled, but didn’t explain further.

He couldn’t possibly say that he wanted to go back to the mansion to check things out first—make sure everything’s calm before smoothing things over.

Soon, they arrived at the destination, a courtyard next to Ye Haoyang’s private residence.

"Take good care of the First Mistress. If anything goes wrong, you’ll be in big trouble."

After saying this, fearing she’d misunderstand, he explained quietly, "This is how we rank titles within our mansion. Once I’ve submitted the petition and the Emperor formally confers the title, the servants will address you as the Princess Consort."

Li Luru sneered quietly. Who cares about that?

After seeing her back to the courtyard, Ye Haoxuan returned to Prince An’s Mansion.

Yang Chuxia and Ye Zi’an, who were already informed, were waiting.

Seeing him return alone, they raised an eyebrow, "Why are you alone? Didn’t you say you’d bring your wife back with you?"

"Dad, Mom, Third Brother, Second Sister-in-law!"

After calling out to everyone, Ye Haoxuan said, "I’ve settled her outside the mansion first. I’ll bring her back tomorrow."

"Why wait until tomorrow?" Yang Chuxia said displeased, "How can you be so careless about this? You’ve already married her, so she’s a Ye Family member. Why leave her outside?"

Ye Haoxuan thought, I’m just worried you might still be upset now. I wanted to come back and check things out. Once you’re calm, I’ll bring her back.

It’s said that parents know their children best, but Ye Haoxuan scoffed, "Afraid your mom wouldn’t be happy, yet dared to act first and explain later. Pretending now, but you’re just asking for trouble."

Ye Zi’an received a letter from him first, then heard from the Funan Ye Family’s servants. Two letters’ timelines didn’t match, indicating this kid hadn’t received their agreement yet before marrying.

Ye Haoxuan knew this couldn’t be hidden from Dad, and if Dad knew, Mom would too.

"Heh heh, Dad, Grandma agreed. It’s not really acting first and explaining later since Grandma assured you’d agree."

He paused and added, "Grandma went to propose this marriage for me."

"Don’t bring up your Grandma!"

Ye Zi’an coldly snorted, "Without your parents’ consent, you dared do this. What place does that put us in?"

"Dad, I was wrong!"

Yang Chuxia looked at him with a rather amused expression, "See? How fast he admits his mistake! He’s never done it so quickly before."

"Mom..."

"You little rascal..." Yang Chuxia pointed at him, "What can I say? Do you think I’m that petty? For not being fond of Yang Aoshuang, I won’t stop you from marrying? And you go, learning to act first and explain later."

"Mom, I was wrong to doubt you like that." Ye Haoxuan hurried forward, "You can beat or scold me, as you please."

Yang Chuxia glanced at him and said coolly, "Why would I beat you? You’re my son. Doing so would hurt my heart. But isn’t your wife around? Tomorrow, have her follow me to learn the rules."

Ye Haoxuan quickly replied, "Yes, yes, yes. I’ll tell her to serve you."

"Are you sincere?"

"Of course!"

Yang Chuxia coldly huffed, "That’s more like it!"

Ye Haoxuan finally stood straight, relieved that Mom was settled, all would be well.

"Why aren’t you fetching your wife to serve me? What are you standing around for?"

"Ah, I’m on my way!"

Seeing him slip away quickly, Yang Chuxia said to Ye Rongqing, "Don’t learn from your big brother. He does everything well when grown up, except for this, which makes people criticize."
