Chapter 9 Ye Yuhang's Doting on His Daughter
It was a handle made of fine birch wood, with the top covered with colorful rooster feathers.
It looks very resilient and swings with great force.
feather duster...
Ye Lingyu's small body trembled suddenly.
"Mother...didn't you say you were going to give your daughter a powerful 'weapon' for self-defense?"
Ye Lingyu forced out an innocent smile.
She blinked her big eyes.
He was trying to distract himself by playing dumb in order to get through this ordeal.
"Lingyu, this is the 'weapon' that your mother specially made for you."
Li Lizhi smiled, her eyes scanning her daughter.
"However, is this weapon actually any good?"
"Your mother needs to test her power on you first."
Li Lizhi gave a soft snort, the feather duster in her hand drawing an arc in the air.
It brought with it a sharp, whooshing sound.
Ye Lingyu's heart skipped a beat.
Mother is serious now; if we don't call for help soon, we'll really be "skin torn apart."
In a moment of quick thinking, she abruptly turned her head.
She stared intently at Ye Yuhang beside her with her big, watery eyes.
"Father, help me!"
Ye Lingyu mouthed the words silently, looking utterly pitiful.
Ye Yuhang rubbed his temples.
He watched as Li Lizhi raised that "heavy weapon."
Finally, he sighed and stepped in front of them.
"My wife, forget it, forget it."
Ye Yuhang reached out and gently pressed Li Lizhi's wrist.
"Although Lingyu came back late this time..."
But thankfully, everyone is safe and sound, and that is the greatest blessing.
Ye Yuhang turned around and gave his daughter a wink, signaling her to quickly express her opinion.
Ye Lingyu nodded repeatedly.
"My daughter really knows she was wrong, and she'll never dare to linger outside so long again."
Please spare our daughter this time!
"Do you know you were wrong?"
Li Lizhi rolled her eyes in annoyance.
She flung Ye Yuhang's hand away and slammed the feather duster heavily onto the table.
Do you think I'm stupid?
Husband, don't think I don't know.
You were the one who quietly let her in at the door.
Li Lizhi stood with her hands on her hips, her chest heaving violently.
"Ahem... My wife is indeed incredibly insightful; nothing can escape your notice."
Ye Yuhang coughed awkwardly.
He sighed inwardly.
My wife is truly becoming more and more authoritative as the head of the household.
"My husband, you be the judge, how can I not be angry?"
Li Lizhi pointed angrily toward the door, her eyes slightly red.
What is the current state of Hezhou?
The Tibetans frequently raided the borders, and swords flashed everywhere.
"I repeatedly told her to turn around and leave if she encountered any Tibetans."
Never try to be a hero.
Li Lizhi's voice choked as she spoke.
"But this girl is different; not only does she not listen,
They still dared to make such a reckless move; what if something serious happened to them?
How am I supposed to live?
"My wife, I understand, I understand."
Ye Yuhang quickly stepped forward and gently put his arm around Li Lizhi's shoulder.
His tone softened.
"But Lingyu, this child, since she was able to deal with those Tibetans..."
The fact that she was able to save the suffering people of the Tang Dynasty proves that she hated evil as if it were her enemy.
"This kind-hearted nature is all thanks to my excellent upbringing."
Ye Yuhang smiled and comforted him, not forgetting to pat himself on the back.
Li Lizhi glared at him fiercely, but her anger dissipated most of it in her husband's gentle words.
Although she complained that her husband had led their daughter astray,
But looking at his daughter's innocent little face, he eventually put the feather duster back on the shelf.
"call……"
Ye Lingyu breathed a long sigh of relief.
She was about to cheer with joy when she heard her mother's next words.
"I'll spare you the beating, but family rules must not be abolished."
Li Lizhi sat back down in her chair and coldly uttered a sentence.
"No dinner tonight. Go back to your room and reflect on your actions!"
Having said that, Li Lizhi stood up.
He walked towards the backyard without looking back.
"what?"
Ye Lingyu's small face turned ashen.
She rubbed her rumbling stomach, filled with grief and indignation.
"As long as I don't get beaten up, as long as I don't get beaten up..."
Ye Lingyu quietly comforted herself.
Compared to the feeling of being hit on the butt with a feather duster, going hungry for a meal doesn't seem so unacceptable.
When Li Lizhi's figure completely disappeared at the end of the corridor.
Ye Lingyu slipped and darted in front of Ye Yuhang.
"Thank you, Father, for saving my life. Otherwise, I would have been skinned alive tonight."
Ye Lingyu massaged Ye Yuhang's legs in a flattering manner.
Her little hands tapped away, but her eyes kept glancing towards the kitchen.
"Now you know fear?"
Ye Yuhang couldn't help but laugh out loud at his daughter's comical appearance.
He reached out and rubbed his daughter's tummy, feeling the hollow sound coming from inside.
"Are you hungry? I just made your favorite hot and sour shredded potatoes and braised pork ribs."
Ye Yuhang's tone was full of temptation.
"I want to eat..."
Ye Lingyu's mouth was practically watering.
But she quickly remembered her mother's command and shook her head dejectedly.
"Mother said... I'm not allowed to eat."
Ye Lingyu swallowed hard, looking extremely aggrieved.
"Silly child, who am I to you?"
Ye Yuhang walked towards the kitchen first, his back view exuding an inexplicable confidence.
"In this family, besides your mother..."
I've never been afraid of anyone, so come with me.
"Long live Father!"
Ye Lingyu's eyes lit up, and her previous dejection vanished.
She followed Ye Yuhang around happily.
We arrived at the kitchen.
Ye Yuhang took out a bowl of rice from a specially made insulated wooden box.
The rich aroma of pork ribs instantly filled the entire space.
"Eat quickly, while it's hot."
Ye Yuhang handed the chopsticks to his daughter and sat down beside her, watching with a smile.
The bright red chili oil coats the crisp potato shreds.
The braised pork ribs are a deep reddish-brown color and still steaming hot.
"Wow, this is so delicious!"
Ye Lingyu immediately began to wolf down her food.
She mumbled incoherently as she stuffed ribs into her mouth.
"Eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you, be careful not to choke."
Ye Yuhang gently gave his instructions.
He picked up a handkerchief and carefully wiped the sauce off his daughter's lips.
"If your mother saw you eating like this, she would complain that you don't have the manners of a girl."
Ye Yuhang shook his head, but a smile remained on his lips.
"My mother always said that a girl should know proper etiquette in order to get married."
Ye Lingyu forcefully gnawed off a piece of cartilage and mumbled something.
"But I'm not going to get married in the future."
I want to stay by my father's side for the rest of my life, and even compete with my mother for his affections!
"You child, you're talking nonsense."
As Ye Yuhang watched his daughter eat until her cheeks were bulging, his heart was filled with the pride and warmth of being a father.
After the meal, Ye Lingyu obediently washed the dishes herself.
She ran over and hugged Ye Yuhang's arm.
