Chapter 1097 - The sad Ouyang Mengyue
In Ouyang Family's third floor, Ouyang Mengyue had already stayed inside the house under the interference of her grandfather for four days. She laid on the balcony listlessly, and the servant beside her had made her the most beloved snack, which she also left unsatisfied.It had only been two hours, but Aunt He had already brought her a new bowl of bird's nest porridge. However, when she looked at the untouched dessert beside her, she sighed and advised, "Second Miss, eat more! If you don't eat and drink like this, you'll get sick. "
"Aunt He, I can't eat it. Don't let the people from the reception room cook these for me, it's just a waste." Ouyang Mengyue's gaze looked at the distant setting sun, but did not move.
"But you can't just keep on wasting time with the old tutor, can you? The old master is worried about you too! ""Then what can I do? My heart is flustered and confused. I am confused. " In front of the Aunt He, Ouyang Mengyue did not conceal her own emotions.
Aunt He had taken care of her since she was young, and they were as intimate as half a mother.Aunt He looked at her lovingly as she carried the dessert away and drank the Swallow's Nest porridge. She then advised, "Drink some! "You didn't eat anything at noon, I'll go over to the Old Master's side later to take a look."
"How is my grandfather?"
"Isn't he the same? He's in a bad mood and he doesn't eat well either. People his age are the most resistant to depression. The doctors have come by a few times already, I'm afraid your grandpa has suppressed his feelings and raised his blood pressure."
Ouyang Mengyue blamed herself in her heart. She bit her lips, "Tell my grandfather that I will be obedient recently, I won't go anywhere else. Just don't make him angry, okay?"
"Alright! I'll talk to the old man. " After Aunt He finished speaking, he carried the dessert out.
She took it and walked to a tea room on the first floor, where she saw Ouyang Zongheng sitting as if he were deep in thought. In front of him, was a black and white photo of a young girl, which looked a bit old, and the girl in the photo, who looked to be no more than 25 or 26 years old, looked very beautiful. It was Ouyang Mengyue's aunt, who had passed away.Aunt He's heart could not help but feel slightly sour. She still remembered that this young miss of the Ouyang Family was a very sentimental girl, who liked to write poems, sing songs, and love even more than ordinary people. But she fell in love with a man who did not love her.
That man of the Ji family eventually abandoned her and married her and left for another country. On the night after he left, she cut off her own wrist and died in her own room. Around her was photos of her and that man's love, dying a very sad and beautiful death.
"Master, here's your tea." Aunt He disturbed his thoughts and placed the tea by his side.Ouyang Zongheng retracted his gaze from the photo, seeing that the person who delivered the tea was Aunt He, he couldn't help but to ask out of concern, "How is Xiao Yue? "How much did you eat today?"
"Second Miss did not eat anything at noon. She had made snacks for her in the afternoon, but she did not use her chopsticks either. I had just sent her a bowl of Swallow's Nest congee. The Aunt He said softly.
"If this goes on, her young body won't be able to take it." Ouyang Zongheng was a bit angry, and said, "Is she really that stubborn?!" It's not that Ji De isn't going to marry? The men of the Ji Clan are completely unreliable. "
He must have been thinking about his beloved daughter just now, because at this moment, Ouyang Zongheng's mood was even more infuriated."Master, please calm down. Aren't you unable to eat or sleep? Second Miss is also concerned about your body! " The Aunt He advised.
Ouyang Burong walked in from outside. He had just finished a round of work at the company and his expression revealed a hint of tiredness, he was definitely getting old, he also felt that his strength was lacking, and that he was definitely not the same as he was when he was in his prime.
Seeing the tired look on his son's face, Ouyang Zongheng could not help but sigh in his heart. If in a few years time, the burden of the company would fall into the hands of Xiao Yue, and if she insisted on not marrying, then the whole company would fall into the hands of a girl, which was something he had no choice but to worry about.
Even if Ji Anning would help, Gong Yuze would also help. But in the end, the burden of the Ouyang Family was not something that a woman like Ouyang Mengyue could bear."Dad, is the doctor here yet? What do you mean? It's not that high, right? " Ouyang Burong sat down and looked at his father with concern.
"It's alright, it's a little bit higher. It's fine, Bu Rong. It's not a good idea to continue like this!" We need to think of a way for the Xiao Yue to take his heart out from Ji Tianci. " Ouyang Jin said to his son.
Ouyang Burong did not dare to persuade him to agree to the marriage anymore, because Ouyang Zongheng's body did not allow himself to be provoked.
"Dad, do you have any ideas?" Ouyang Burong could only follow his father's thoughts and suggestions.
"We need to organize a larger ball for Xiao Yue to attend, and invite a few young talents to attend. I believe that there will definitely be someone more outstanding than Ji Tianci." Ouyang Zongheng said with a determined look on his face.
"Dad, are you sure you want to do this?""Yes, we will do that. Ask the Xiao Yue for his opinion, and if he agrees, we will immediately organize this ball."
"Father, Xiao Yue will not agree."
"Aunt He, go upstairs and call Second Miss down. We need to discuss something." Ouyang Jin said to the Aunt He.
Aunt He went upstairs to call Ouyang Mengyue. In order to not provoke her grandfather, she even ate separately. Now, after hearing her grandfather call her, she thought about it and talked about the relationship between Ji Tianci and herself. She had a face full of worry.
These days, Ouyang Mengyue had restrained herself from calling Ji Tianci. She was afraid that if she called Ji Tianci, she would uncontrollably cry, because her grandfather's attitude was extremely against it.
When Ouyang Mengyue arrived at the teahouse, both her father and grandfather were there, her face was pale and haggard because she had not eaten anything in the past few days. Upon entering, Ouyang Zongheng's heart was still in pain, she had never seen his granddaughter with such a lack of will to live, as if she had lost her soul."Grandfather, father." Ouyang Mengyue called out and sat beside her father. Her gaze inadvertently touched the white frame beside her grandfather, and her eyes instantly filled with grief.
"Xiao Yue, your grandfather and I are thinking that since you have been depressed for the past few days, we would like to give you a dance. How about we have some more youngsters come and accompany you for a bit of fun?" Ouyang Burong opened his mouth and asked.
Hearing that, Ouyang Mengyue shook her head, "No need, I'm not interested."
Xiao Yue, listen to grandpa. Go out, there are still many people in this world, you will open up the knot in your heart, grandpa won't interfere with your communication, you can do whatever you want now, other than meeting Ji Tianci, grandpa will not bother about you anymore, okay? " Ouyang Zongheng's voice also contained a trace of pleading.
