Pastoral Daily Life

When Yan Yue arrived home, Yin Qinglan was with Yin Yongde.

Unlike her daughter, Yin Ya, who was lovely and clean, Yin Qinglan was a rare beauty. Although she was already over fifty years old, she had maintained her beauty quite well, and half of Yan Yues good looks came from Yin Qinglans genes.

Yin Qinglan didnt know about the previous rumours that Yan Yue was mentally ill. Although she was a shareholder of Hopewell Group, she didnt care about the companys affairs at all. Coupled with Yin Yas deliberate concealment, she didnt know anything until Yan Hai jumped out. She didnt believe that Yan Yue was sick, so she went straight to Yin Yongde and asked him to back up Yan Yue.

Yin Yongde had only one daughter in his life and there was nothing he could do about it. He was so upset by her that he could only say solemnly, “Ive already arranged for Ah Yue to have lunch with me at noon. Its up to Ah Yue to decide how to handle this matter.”

Yin Qinglan, who felt that her father was shirking his responsibilities, was displeased and said excitedly, “Ah Yue has already been squeezed out by Yan Shihui like this, and Yan Hai is stepping on his head, how can you still sit still, Father?”

Yin Yongde scowled and reprimanded, “Now you remember that Ah Yue is your son? What did you do before? Ah Yue is under too much pressure, so its good to take a break for a while. Yan Hai is not enough to squeeze Ah Yue out of his position.”

“Too much pressure?” Yin Qinglan looked puzzled, “What pressure does Ah Yue have? Neither Yan Shihui nor I have ever forced him?”

Yin Yongde choked hearing her tone and pounded the ground with his cane, “You are not not putting pressure on him, you are completely ignoring him. Even Shihui is better, at least he remembers that Ah Yue is the heir to Hopewell, so he paid him some attention. What about you? Did you take care of Ah Yue all these years?”

Yin Qinglan complained in an aggrieved voice, “Am I the one who doesnt care about him? Hes the one who wont let me take care of him. He doesnt listen to anything I tell him, its all perfunctory.” Seeing that Yin Yongde was about to get angry again, Yin Qinglan hurriedly changed the subject, “Whats the matter with Ah Yues stress? Is it something about the company?”

Yin Yongde took a deep breath and softened his tone, “Ah Yue has some psychological problems and has been seeing a psychologist abroad. Didnt that kid from the Ye family study these things, so I guess he has something to do with Ah Yue. What happened this time is actually not a bad thing. Ah Yue has been hiding it from us. If we knew earlier, we could have accompanied Ah Yue to counselling. This kind of thing is not a big deal. Ah Yue is under too much pressure, so its good to take this opportunity to rest.”

When Yin Qinglan heard that Yan Yue was suffering from psychological problems, her face distorted a little and she felt even more aggrieved. “Arent psychological problems a mental illness? How can Ah Yue have psychological problems? Yan Shihui and I have neglected him a bit, but we havent done him any harm. He never lacked in food and clothing. Now that he has psychological problems, isnt it like accusing us of not doing well as parents?”

“Yin Qinglan!” Yin Yongde knocked his cane angrily.

Before Yin Qinglan could say anything, Yin Ya ran in from outside. “Grandpa, Mother is also too sad to accept the fact that Brother is sick. Dont be angry.”

When it came to Yin Ya, Yin Yongde couldnt say anything else and waved his hand, “Xiao Ya, you should accompany your mother and go rest first.”

“I want to wait to see Brother,” Yin Ya hesitantly whispered.

Yin Yongde frowned and was about to refuse when Yan Yue already appeared in the doorway.
