Chapter 397 The Day to Return the Silver

aracter"People watching the commotion laughed and said, "Of course, it's about looks! Which man doesn't look at appearance""No way!" Yè Wēn Yán shook his head. "If it's about looks, I'm better looking...I don't know why, but even though the young master is her sister's real brother, and the second young master had almost killed her sister before...

When she faced the young master, she always inexplicably felt a sense of alienation. She felt that the young master was more unfamiliar, more distant, and could remind her more clearly that she was just a servant. A servant and a master must maintain a certain distance. 。

The little one shook her head vigorously, trying hard to shake off this feeling.

The Young Master is also a person trusted by her young mistress, and he's a good brother to her. She can't be so biased like this. The young mistress would be unhappy if she knew, and the Madam would be heartbroken as well. 。 Just as she imagined, when she stood before Ye Fei's door and reached out to knock, that earlier feeling surged back up. 。It's just that she feels that the second young master is more approachable and easier to get along with. She's willing to talk to the second young master and doesn't feel as nervous in front of the first young master. 。When Ye Fei Zhou opened the door, he saw Zhuai Er standing at the doorway, her face twisted in distress. 。He didn't understand: "What's wrong"

Zhuai sighed and waved her hand, "You don't understand"

" Let's go inside and talk! This servant has something important to tell the Second Young Master about our Fourth Miss. 。Upon hearing that it was about Ye Wen, Ye Feizhou didn't ask any further questions. He immediately let Zhuai in and closed the door. 。The maid, Zhu'er, glanced back at the closed door. Unable to hold it in any longer, she said to her companion, "Second Young Master, I have to tell you something. If this door had been closed by the eldest Young Master, I wouldn't dare stay inside." 。I don't know why, but I feel a little nervous when I see the eldest son. Well, it's not exactly nervousness, more like I can't be as casual with him as I am with the second son. 。My young mistress is the same way, every time she speaks with the young master, she's so serious and formal. It feels like utmost respect, but there's no sense of closeness at all. 。" Night Flying Boat didn't know how to respond. He was even thinking in his heart, this girl wouldn't be testing his loyalty to the first wife's family, would she She suddenly ran over and did this, who knows if it's a trap! Seeing Night Flying Boat remain silent, Zhu'er didn't think much of it. What she said before was enough, and she didn't intend to continue talking. " 。She only told Ye Fei Zhou about how her young lady gets sick every fifteenth day of the month. After finishing, she said: "The second young master also knows about the relationship between our young lady and the Sovereign Emperor. To be honest, the Sovereign Emperor is currently guarding our young lady in the room! But my meaning is, the Sovereign Emperor is a busy person, what if one time he gets delayed by something else and doesn't take care of the young lady That would be very dangerous! So I thought, now that the second young master is also the young master of the main branch, then in the future, the responsibility of protecting our young lady must be yours. " 。One should not let their skills go to waste; they must be put into practice. 。" Ye Fei Zhou didn't have any opinion on this. He was happy to protect Ye Wen Yan, but being sick every fifteenth What was going on To be sick and even choose the day Think about it again, it seemed like it made sense. Long ago, he heard that on the fifteenth night of the twelfth lunar month, Ye Wen Yan had fallen seriously ill. But he didn't expect that on the fifteenth of the first lunar month, the second lunar month, and even today on the fifteenth of the third lunar month, Ye Wen Yan would be sick again. " 。Zhu'er is right, if this happens every fifteenth day of the month, he needs to be prepared. 。"I understand. Don't worry, from now on, every 15th of the month, I will accompany her." 。Two days flew by, and the day to ask the Xiao family for money finally arrived. 。Ye Wen woke up early, dressed neatly and went to Fu Lu Courtyard to pay respects to the old lady. 。She thought she arrived early enough, but unexpectedly Ye Lianlian arrived even earlier. As soon as she entered the main hall, she saw Ye Lianlian sitting beside the elderly matriarch on a cushion, acting coquettishly and saying: "Our family is going to have a new mistress very soon, grandmother. You must put on your airs this time, and don't let the new mistress be like the current second aunt, using her family connections to bully you." 。You are the Old Madam, the most esteemed woman in the inner courtyard. No one can overpower you. 。" The old madam nodded, thinking Ye Lianlian made sense. For a newcomer, rules and etiquette should be established from the very first day they entered the household. 。If this head of yours gets sorted out, everything will be much easier going forward. 。If this opening isn't good, then he'll be the second Xiao Shubi. 。But actually, think about it, Xiao Shubi had been good to her before. It's just like Ye Lianmian said, Xiao Shubi has a powerful family background, and she doesn't have much, but for her son, it's an invisible pressure 。Formerly, she had pinned all her hopes on the Xiao family to support their second son, hoping that he could stand tall even without relying on the General's Mansion. 。But now she understands, relying on her family connections is useless, what truly matters is herself. 。 If the second brother wants to truly turn things around, he must have a promising daughter. The paths of Red Makeup from last night and Sixth Highness are no longer viable, so now that there is Night Twin, why not try walking in the footsteps of this new emperor 。As long as Ye Wushuang enters the palace, and as long as she becomes a concubine, then her family will become imperial relatives, and her son will become the emperor's father-in-law. 。That night, she had never seen anything like it. But according to her son's description, it was incredibly beautiful, many times more beautiful than the Night Crimson makeup. 。If she's not lying, this kind of girl will definitely be liked by men. 。If Ye Wushuang manages to establish herself in the palace in the future, her family will naturally enjoy prosperity as well. 。The elderly lady lowered her head to look at Ye Lianmian and asked, "Were you angry with me for being cold to you earlier"Ye Lianmian quickly ingratiated herself, "How could a granddaughter be angry with grandmother I was raised by grandmother, no matter what, I'll always be on grandmother's side" 。My grandmother thinks whoever is good in this family, I should befriend them. I listen to my grandmother about everything. 。"You're right. After all, I raised you. Even though I sometimes get angry at how you don't try harder, deep down, I still care about you." 。Now that your uncle is about to marry a new wife, you should view this matter with caution. As long as your current aunt treats everyone well, it's impossible for your uncle to even consider taking a concubine. 。So in the future, this household will still be run by the new daughter-in-law, especially since she's bringing a grown daughter with her. 。"

Yè Liánmiàn nodded, "I heard that Wúshuang younger sister is especially beautiful. Second Uncle is truly lucky." 。“

“Um 。"The old madam loves to hear this," So you should get closer to your new second aunt from now on ~ be close to her. She's new here and doesn't know anyone, you can take this opportunity to get close to her and take care of your sister who is unmatched as well. 。

Since then, they have benefited, so naturally they will be thinking of you, your elder sister.

"

Yè Liánmiàn nodded vigorously, nodding and nodding until he discovered that there was one more person in the room. Turning his head back, he saw that Yè Wényán had already sat down. " 。

She had still been smiling, but the moment she saw Ye Wenyan, her face instantly fell. She even blurted out, "What are you doing here"

Ye Wenyan chuckled, "Naturally, I'm here to pay my respects to grandmother. Could it be that I'm here to see you"

"As if!" Ye Lianmian huffed and stood up abruptly, her movements a little too big, causing another twinge of pain in her arm. 。"Ye Wen, don't get too cocky. Our family will soon have a new master. You won't be able to make any waves, and don't think everyone will be afraid of you." 。"

Ye Wen said with a smile, "Second Sister, does this mean that the new master will make things difficult for me as soon as he arrives Why is that Well, whatever the reason, you all know that I'm definitely not someone who can stand being bullied. The servants around me are all fiercely protective of me." 。It's just like Second Sister's arm, if you hadn't spoken so harshly that day, she wouldn't have ended up permanently disabled. 。So even if the new second aunt enters the household, what difference does it make As long as she doesn't provoke me, everything will be fine. But once she provokes me, then she'll just become the next Xiao Sh beyaz. To me, there would be no loss at all. 。After finishing, he ignored the endless night and turned his head to look outside. While looking, he muttered to himself, "Why hasn't Second Aunt arrived yet I came early on purpose to block her and remind her that today is the day she has to pay back the one million taels of silver." 。I have to ask her one last time, is this silver I'm asking of her, or the Duke of Ningguo's mansion 。"Sigh, one million taels To say it's lost is to say it's lost Who would believe that" She turned her head and asked the old matriarch, "Grandmother, do you believe the silver notes were truly lost"

The old matriarch didn't react for a moment, "You, what do you mean"

"What I mean is! In fact, the silver notes are eighty percent likely not lost, but have already been given to Madam Xiao." 。That day, Madam Xiao wasn't just here, was she It must be that the daughter received the silver note first and then immediately gave it to her own mother! Otherwise, how could Madam Xiao say she would pay it back That's a million taels of silver! She, as someone who isn't even a countess's mother, dares to take on this task

Madam Ye followed her words and thought about it, the more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

。From large bills to small jewelry, I lose things every other day. 。 。“ Madam was so angry that she kept slapping the table, “Xiao Shu Bai, she is a thief raised by the Xiao family! The Xiao family actually married such a daughter to my Ye Mansion. Their hearts are vicious, their hearts are vicious!” ” And as they were arguing, Xiao Shu Bai arrived 。If this had happened on an ordinary day, Xiao Shubi would definitely not have tolerated the old mistress scolding her like that. 。But today she couldn't care less about that, all she could think about was the one million taels of silver note. 。She had searched high and low, inside and out, but the silver notes were nowhere to be found. 。If you steal something, you have to pay. Yanhuagong's bill can't be dodged, and no one dares to dodge it. 。But in just three days, where could she possibly get so much money >y. 。Even without crying, she stomped her feet and cursed, hurling insults at the red makeup of the night, and even at that damned Sixth Prince. 。 The maid was so frightened that her face turned pa...
