Ye Mingzhu transmigrated to become a low-status pearl diver. She had no parents, only a young brother, and was without food, drink, or land.
Fortunately, the heavens granted her a golden fing...
Chapter 288 I Can't Forgive You
A cute female voice pointed at Ye Yun'an with an angry look on her face.
"An An," Ye Mingzhu had already run over to help him up: "How are you? Did you fall anywhere?"
"No," Ye Yun'an was helped up by his sister, still a little confused: "Sister, I'm fine."
"Of course you're fine, I'm the one who's in trouble." The woman opposite had an angry look on her face.
Ye Mingzhu looked over and saw Mei'er opposite her.
Mei'er also recognized Ye Mingzhu, and the sarcasm on her lips was a little unbearable: "What? It's not enough that you went down and robbed our jewelry, but you're still waiting here at night to trip us up?"
Ye Mingzhu's face darkened. "Young lady, be careful what you say. We bought the jewelry we liked first, and you only thought of looking at it now. Just now, my brother was walking out from inside, and you bumped into him because you were walking too fast."
Mei'er snorted angrily and looked to the side: "Cousin, look at who these people are. They dare to yell at me."
Ye Mingzhu became even more angry: "I'm talking to you about reason, and you're telling me about your status. I just don't know what rank the young lady is, or is she a top-rank official? How dare you oppress the people here?"
Zheng Yuang, who had been standing silently nearby, looked unhappy. "Miss, your words are a bit too much. We have no intention of oppressing the people."
Ye Mingzhu didn't give him any face at all: "Am I wrong? Isn't she deliberately looking for trouble?"
As the son of the prefect, Zheng Yuang really couldn't quarrel with Ye Mingzhu in public, but Mei'er was relentless and refused to give in.
Ye Mingzhu originally felt that the Zheng family was deliberately breaking off the engagement. Although she couldn't say or do anything, she was not afraid of the arrogant Mei'er at all.
Wang Dahu had been with Ye Mingzhu for some time and knew that she had a relatively easy-going personality. It was unlikely that she would quarrel with someone in the street. It must be that the girl across the street had provoked her.
He called Chun Xing to his side and asked about what happened in the afternoon.
Chun Xing did not hide anything and told everything that happened in the afternoon.
Wang Dahu understood halfway through listening. Ye Mingzhu was venting her anger on behalf of her younger sister. She felt that Zheng Yuang had broken off the engagement and felt sorry for Jian Pingping.
This matter has nothing to do with their family, and he will not intervene. But Mei'er bumped into Ye Yun'an and took the initiative to criticize Ye Mingzhu, which was a bit too much.
"Sir, it's just that both of them were careless. Are you sure you want them to continue arguing here?"
Wang Dahu looked at the angry Ye Mingzhu and Mei'er with red eyes, and said to Zheng Yuang.
After hearing Mei'er say that the other party had snatched the crown that Xu Mengqing had set her eyes on, Zheng Yuang wanted to teach the other party a lesson, but he didn't expect the other party to be so aggressive and not give in to Mei'er at all.
Seeing that things were getting more and more out of control, he felt a little regretful. If his father knew that he and Mei'er had quarreled with someone in the street, he would probably be very disappointed.
"Since you know you're wrong, we won't bother with you anymore." Zheng Yuang said, pulling Mei'er's arm and saying, "Mei'er, let's just leave it at that."
Mei'er was about to protest, but Zheng Yuang whispered in her ear, "If my father finds out about this, I'm afraid he won't forgive us."
As he spoke, he glanced at the crowd watching obscurely.
Mei'er woke up from the quarrel and realized that something was wrong.
"You, it's all your fault. If it weren't for you, why would I be here arguing with you? Just wait, I won't let you go."
Mei'er stamped her feet and uttered harsh words.
After yelling like that, Ye Mingzhu felt much better. She glanced at the other person lightly without saying anything.
Mei was so angry that she wanted to yell again, but Zheng Yuang quickly grabbed her and stopped her from speaking.
The owner of Hongyan Tower had already walked over and politely asked the waiter to take Zheng Yuang and Mei'er to the private room in the back. He also asked the waiter to serve a dish first to calm them down.
"Sir, it was our waiter who failed to warn you. Please calm down." The shopkeeper bowed to Wang Dahu and took a food box from the waiter next to him and handed it to him.
"This is a snack we made in our shop. We're giving it to you two to calm you down."
Ye Mingzhu had already lowered her head and vented her anger, only to realize that she had been a little impulsive.
Wang Dahu's face was full of smiles: "It's just a small matter, nothing."
The shopkeeper insisted on giving him the lunch box. He took the lunch box with a smile, bowed to the shopkeeper, and went back with Ye Mingzhu and others.
Uncle Yan saw that Wang Dahu had something to say to Ye Mingzhu, so he took the initiative to sit outside the carriage.
Chun Xing looked at Wang Dahu's face and felt a little scared, but there was no place for her outside the carriage, so she had to sit in the corner, hoping that no one would notice her.
Ye Mingzhu didn't think Wang Dahu was that angry. She felt that underneath Wang Dahu's sullen face, there was a calmness.
But it was obvious that no one else thought so. Ever since Ye Yun'an got on the carriage, he kept talking to Wang Dahu and kept talking all the way home.
Wang Dahu glanced at Ye Yun'an with a half-smile: "Yun'an, go back and drink more water."
Ye Mingzhu's mouth corners turned up, and she seemed to want to laugh.
Ye Yun'an glanced at his sister and swallowed hard, all for the sake of protecting her from being scolded.
"Go drink some water. I'll talk to my uncle." Ye Mingzhu pouted angrily at Ye Yun'an, indicating that he could go back to his room first.
Chun Xing followed Ye Mingzhu about ten feet behind, following closely.
Ye Mingzhu glanced behind her and asked in a low voice: "Uncle, did I do something wrong?"
"Oh," Wang Dahu raised the corner of his mouth, and immediately regained his composure: "Mingzhu feels that she has done something wrong."
"I shouldn't have argued with her in public," Ye Mingzhu said seriously. "Even if she did something wrong, I just told her what happened."
He was afraid that this would make the other party even angrier. For the first time, Wang Dahu felt that his niece was also a hot pepper.
"It's just a few arguments with the other party. It's not a quarrel." Wang Dahu waved his hand, telling Ye Mingzhu not to take it to heart.
"Is there something else wrong?"
Other places? Ye Mingzhu thought about it and shook her head: "No."
"Forget it if there's nothing. You're tired after a day. Go back and rest first." Wang Dahu waved at her and asked her to go back to her room first.
Ye Mingzhu's eyes widened: "Uncle?"
Wang Dahu looked at her with amusement: "Why? Do you really need your uncle to criticize you?"
Ye Mingzhu shook her head. Of course that wasn't what she meant.
"I've already asked Chun Xing. It wasn't your fault that we were at Linglong Pavilion this afternoon. Don't take it personally."
Since it was not his own daughter's fault, Wang Dahu would not criticize Ye Mingzhu.
"Uncle, have you heard that the prefect's son is engaged?" Ye Mingzhu had just spoken a few words with Zheng Yuang and felt that this man was not a reasonable person and was biased towards his relatives. In addition, he seemed to have feelings for Xu Mengqing, so he was not a good match.
