Chapter 1118: How Was The Judgment
Ye family.
Now only Ye Hao and Xia Jingshu were left in the family. But Ye Hao didn’t dismiss redundant servants. He had a lot of money, simply keeping a dozen servants at home to accompany his mother.
There was no more children’s laughter and noise at home, but the family had not become cold.
Ye’s servants were very idle, many of whom did not even need to do anything for a whole day. They simply lived here, eating, playing and getting paid every day. They could not be more relaxed.
Ye Hao came back from work at this time, still with no smile on his face. He looked strict as if the whole world owed something to him. After he put down the laptop, he went to the living room and pushed his mother out.
“You are off work so early today?” Xia Jingshu looked at her son lightly. She was one year older again, in her sixties this year. However, she looked older than her real age with her hair black and white. Since she had no chance to exercise all year round in a wheelchair, she was in bad health and would get sick from time to time. Although not incurable, sickness like rheumatism, arthritis, headache and fever would make her sleepless all night.
Ye Hao nodded and said, “Well, the new project is finished, so I am convenient for this month.”
“Then you can take Xixi to have fun for some time, like travelling. Isn’t the National Day around the corner?”
Xia Jingshu now missed her granddaughter very much. She hadn’t seen her granddaughter for a long time. Sometimes she called her granddaughter, but she didn’t want to answer her phone, saying that she wanted to do her homework.
Every time such estrangement occurred to her, she felt quite upset.
Ye Hao pushed his mother to the restaurant, where the cooks had already prepared their dinner.
“Mom, I’ll plan ahead. We’ll go together then. It would be better if Yanyan goes with us.” Ye Hao said in a deep voice.
In fact, he knew that Yanyan would be unwilling to go.
Xia Jingshu said, “That would be the best.”
“By the way, was there any news from the court? How was the court judgment?”
Xia Jingshu frowned.
Han Xue and Ye Yi had been in jail for more than a year. They were originally sentenced, but they appealed a few months ago and refused to accept the judgment.
Ye Hao looked dim. He blinked his eyes and said in a low voice, “The Supreme Court sentenced Ye Yi to death as well, who will be shot to death in August next year. Han Xue was sentenced to five years in prison.”
Saying so, Ye Hao turned his head away, giving out a low sigh.
One was his biological brother and the other was a woman he hated but loved after all. He hated them last year, but now he simply felt sympathetic for them.
Ye Yi, in particular, should not have had such an ending.
He still remembered that he had promised his father that he would protect his younger brothers and sisters in any case. However, Ye Yi was too arrogant, even at the cost of others’ life, which he could not help cover.
“All right, A Hao…” Xia Jingshu put a piece of braised pork into her son’s bowl.
“Just have the meal. Don’t think about them. They take their own responsibility. You don’t have to feel sorry for your father.”
Xia Jingshu knew why her son showed such an expression.
The mother and son had dinner quietly. There were eight dishes in total, which they could not finish at all. But the chef in the kitchen still prepared so many dishes every day, just like before.
After dinner, Xia Jingshu went back to her room. She was old and her husband had gone. Worse still, her granddaughter was by her side. So her life was quite lonely and dull.
Ye Hao also went back to his room directly. Now he couldn’t see Yanyan through monitoring.
