【Chapter 002】The son-in-law is not stupid
From the expressions on everyone's faces, it can be seen that among the people present, only Butler Du does not want the original owner to die.
In his heart, Nangong Chenyu temporarily classified Butler Du as his own. The rest, except for Doctor Chen Pucun, probably had ill intentions towards the original owner.
Regardless of the expressions on people's faces as they looked at him, Nangong Chenyu opened his dull eyes and scanned everyone present one by one. When he saw one of the maids, his eyes suddenly lit up and he walked a few steps towards the maid.
"Aunt, you said that as long as I marry into the Ye family, I will have chicken legs to eat every day."
"I'm hungry now. I want to eat chicken legs."
The maid was the personal maid of the second wife of the second house, and her name was Cai'er. When she heard Nangong Chenyu's words, her face turned from white to red, and then from red to green.
Auntie?
Is this calling her?
She is only seventeen years old, how can she look like an aunt?
Didn’t this idiot call her beautiful sister before? How come she became an aunt in just one day?
Thinking in her mind, Cai'er reacted quickly. She took two steps back and tried to distance herself from the matter: "What nonsense are you talking about, you idiot? I have never seen you before."
Most people present did not think there was anything wrong with Cai'er calling Nangong Chenyu a fool, only Butler Du had an unhappy look on his face.
Just when Butler Du was about to scold Cai'er, Nangong Chenyu got angry first. He pointed at Cai'er, and his saliva almost flew onto her face.
"You are the fool, your whole family is fools!"
"When you gave me the chicken leg to eat before, you also told me that as long as I entered the Ye Mansion, I would have chicken legs to eat every day."
After he said this, Nangong Chenyu's stomach made a "gurgling" sound.
Everyone: “…”
Steward Du was the first to react. He pointed at one of the maids in the Ye Mansion and said, "Go and prepare some food for the son-in-law."
"I want chicken legs." Nangong Chenyu added.
Butler Du's mouth twitched slightly. There was usually no chicken leg for breakfast. But he still ordered the maid: "Add a chicken drumstick."
The maid obeyed the order and trotted out of the room.
There are two rooms in the Ye Mansion.
The one who really makes the decision is the eldest wife.
The head of the eldest family is Ye Xian, and he has two sons and one daughter.
The eldest is Ye Yishen, and he is sixteen years old now. He has been weak and sickly since childhood, a real sickly person.
The second child is Ye Yuncheng, and he is thirteen years old this year.
The third child is Ye Yixin, also thirteen years old.
The second and third children are twins, a boy and a girl.
Ye Xian's father was Ye Jin, who has passed away.
My mother's name is Bai Lan.
From childhood to adulthood, Bai Lan either beat or scolded Ye Xian. When Ye Jin was alive, he turned a blind eye to his eldest son Ye Xian.
In her early years, Bai Lan wanted Ye Xian to marry a widow who was ten years older than Ye Xian and whose appearance was hard to describe. When Ye Xian refused, Bai Lan had his servants break one of his legs and kicked him out of the house.
If Ye Xian, who had not a penny on him, had not been lucky enough to meet a kind-hearted person, he would have died long ago.
Later, Ye Xian went into business and made a lot of money.
Marry a woman who shares the same ideal with you and have children.
After a few years of Ye Xian's happy life, his mother Bai Lan came to visit him with his second brother Ye Mingrui and their family.
By then, Ye Xian's father Ye Jin had passed away. As a son, Ye Xian cannot ignore Bai Lan. Only Bai Lan and Ye Mingrui's family can live in the Ye Mansion.
Over the years, Ye Mingrui's family has relied on Ye Xian for food and drink.
Three months ago, Ye Xian went out to discuss business and fell into a coma when he came back. Many doctors were consulted, but none of them could find the cause of his coma.
Ten days ago, I heard that a miracle doctor with a strange temper appeared in the neighboring county.
To show his sincerity, Ye Yishen went to invite this miracle doctor in person. Butler Du was worried about Ye Yishen, so he went with him to the next county.
Unfortunately, when the two arrived at the next county, the miracle doctor had already left.
When Butler Du and Ye Yishen came back yesterday, they saw the mansion was decorated with lights and colorful decorations. After asking the servants, they found out that the old lady had arranged for Ye Yisheng to marry the fool Nangong Chenyu to her.
Upon hearing the news, Ye Yishen was so angry that he vomited blood and fainted.
Because of this, the two parties getting married did not even see each other on the wedding day.
Nangong Chenyu found an empty chair and sat down, crossed his legs like an old man, and leisurely picked up the dried fruits on the tea table next to him and started eating.
“Crack, crack, crack~”
It's great for a fool not to have to pretend to be nice to people he doesn't like!
Old Madam Ye, who was sitting in the main seat, saw Nangong Chenyu's behavior and her face turned pale. She said unhappily, "You have no manners at all."
"Madam, my son-in-law is just a--" Butler Du was about to say "fool" when he remembered what Nangong Chenyu had said to Cai'er just now, and he forced himself to hold back the word "fool".
"If a man like my son-in-law knew the rules, I believe the old lady would not let him marry into the family."
Hearing the sarcastic words of Housekeeper Du, Master Ye lost his temper and shouted: "Housekeeper Du, you are just a servant of the Ye Mansion, how can you speak to my mother in this tone?"
After all, they are the masters of the Ye Mansion.
"And, let the stupid--" Before he could finish the word "zi", Ye Erye met Nangong Chenyu's confused eyes.
He subconsciously changed his words: "Nangong Chenyu and Yisheng were married because their horoscopes match. My mother did this in the hope that Yisheng's illness would improve, and that my eldest brother would wake up soon."
To put it bluntly, it is a wedding for good fortune.
Hearing Ye Mingrui say this, Butler Du was extremely angry. The eldest young master of their family was only sixteen years old, and the old lady took advantage of the head of the family being unconscious and found a fool as a son-in-law for the eldest young master.
If the fool really died, the old lady might really listen to Mr. Ye and send the eldest young master away.
In this case, wouldn't the Ye Mansion fall into...
Thinking of this, Butler Du shuddered.
It seems that he needs to find a few people who know Kung Fu to protect the fool and prevent him from being murdered by others.
"Second Master Ye, the head of the Ye family is the one who makes the decisions. Even if the head of the family is unconscious, there is still the eldest young master."
Regardless of Ye Mingrui's ugly expression, Butler Du said to Madam Ye: "Madam, the head of the family has said before that you only need to eat and drink well every day."
"There are old servants watching over the house, so you don't have to worry about it. As for the matter of the son-in-law, the old servant will tell the truth when the master wakes up."
Old Madam Ye glanced at Nangong Chenyu, who deserved to die but was not dead, snorted coldly, then stood up and walked out of the room.
Master Ye was very unwilling, and when he passed by Nangong Chenyu, he glared at him fiercely.
Others followed closely behind.
Doctor Chen also took the opportunity to resign.
When Old Madam Ye passed by him, Nangong Chenyu glanced at her inconspicuously.
This Old Madam Ye is no ordinary person, she is actually a cultivator. Although his cultivation level is not high, only the third level of Qi Refining, he is still a cultivator.
Last night he discovered that the spiritual energy here was very thin, and it was almost impossible to draw the energy into the body. Unless there is a treasure with rich spiritual energy, or a spiritual stone.
In the blink of an eye, only Butler Du and Nangong Chenyu were left in the room.
Having vomited up everything he ate yesterday, Nangong Chenyu was now extremely hungry. He looked at Butler Du and asked, "When will my chicken legs be delivered?"
Butler Du: You are really a fool. You only know how to eat.
When Butler Du looked up, he saw two maids carrying trays into the yard.
“Here I come.”
Smelling the aroma of food, Nangong Chenyu immediately stood up and walked to the table and sat down. He first picked up the porridge, gulped down half a bowl, then picked up the chicken leg and started eating it.
Housekeeper Du looked at Nangong Chenyu, who was eating heartily, with complicated eyes, and then ordered the two maids: "The son-in-law will be the master of the mansion from now on, you must serve him well."
Nangong Chenyu suddenly said, "I don't want them to serve me. I ate the food they sent me last night and had a stomachache all night."
Feeling the sharp gaze of Butler Du, the two maids fell to their knees. They really didn't expect that a fool would actually complain.
"Butler Du, please spare us. We know nothing."
Butler Du looked grim: "What have you done?"
The two maids trembled: "We didn't do anything."
Butler Du snorted coldly and was about to ask someone to drag the two maids away, but suddenly he remembered that when he came here just now, there seemed to be no servants in this yard.
"Go to the yard and kneel down."
After the two maids left, Steward Du said to Nangong Chenyu, "Son-in-law, you eat first. I will arrange someone else to serve you."
Nangong Chenyu waved his hand, motioning him to go down.
At this moment, Butler Du had a strange feeling that Nangong Chenyu was not a fool. However, as soon as this idea came up, he rejected it.
Guyuan County is neither big nor small, but everyone knows that Nangong Yang's eldest son is a "good man" and his youngest son is a big fool.
With a long sigh, Butler Du walked out.
The eldest young master vomited blood yesterday and is still in a coma today; the head of the family is also unconscious; the second young master and the young lady are of no use; the old lady and Mr. Ye are eyeing them covetously.
Butler Du found that he had too many things to worry about. Several of my hair turned white last night. When the master of the family wakes up, I will make sure he increases my monthly salary.
In the house.
After eating and drinking, Nangong Chenyu stood up.
Seeing this, the newly appointed servant stepped forward and asked, "Sir, where are you going?"
Nangong Chenyu glanced at him and said, "Does the master need to report to you where he is going?"
Servant: “…” Is my son-in-law really a fool?
Nangong Chenyu can erase the servant’s memory, so he doesn’t have to worry about him talking nonsense.
"May I have your name?"
"Sir, you can call me Xiao Liu."
"Xiao Liu."
"It's Xiao Liu."
"Little Six."
Servant: “…” The son-in-law seems to be a fool!
"Xiao Liuzi, when did you enter the Ye Mansion?"
Xiao Liu blinked. Why doesn’t his brother-in-law look like a fool anymore?
Nangong Chenyu: "Are you hard of hearing?"
Xiao Liu's attitude immediately straightened up: "I have been in the Ye Mansion for eight years."
Nangong Chenyu: "Then tell me about the Ye Mansion."
Xiao Liu looked embarrassed.
Seeing that Xiao Liuzi didn't want to talk about the master's family's affairs, Nangong Chenyu didn't make things difficult for him. Changed the question: "Tell me about Old Madam Ye, and that Mr. Ye."
Xiao Liu's face changed to a relaxed expression: "Second Master Ye's name is Ye Mingrui, and he has a son and a daughter. The son is Ye Yongtao, and the daughter is Ye Mengying. Second Master Ye——"
"stop."
Hearing the name sounded familiar, Nangong Chenyu interrupted Xiaoliu.
