【Chapter 041】Man in Blue
A quarter of an hour later, Ye Yixin emerged from the embroidered dress looking brand new.
Nangong Chenyu sighed: "As expected, clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. Appearance accounts for 30% and dressing accounts for 70%."
Xiaoliu nodded in agreement.
At this moment, Ye Yixin was wearing a pink long skirt with delicate flower and butterfly patterns embroidered on it, a sapphire blue short-sleeved top on the outside, and a pair of hairpins carved with flowers and butterflies on her head, showing her girlish cuteness.
Before entering the embroidered Luoshang, Ye Yixin wore the same clothes as the maids around her, and had no headdress. There is nothing outstanding about her, at most her face is slightly prettier than other girls.
Not far away, a pair of jealous and resentful eyes were staring at Ye Yixin. He looked as if he wanted to poke two holes in Ye Yixin's body.
This person is Ye Mengying.
Ye Yixin was so excited that she didn't notice anything.
In the blink of an eye, all the jealousy and resentment in Ye Mengying's eyes disappeared, as if they had never appeared. She took a few quick steps and came to Ye Yixin, her eyes full of surprise.
"Cousin, I didn't expect it was really you! I thought I saw it wrong, after all, you——"
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Ye Yixin.
"Cousin, are you okay?"
Ye Mengying pretended not to see the anxiety in Ye Yixin's eyes and said with a smile: "It's almost noon, cousin, you should be planning to go back home, right? I also want to go back home, how about you and I go together?"
Since Ye Yixin hasn't done what she wanted to do, it's naturally impossible for her to go back. She didn't want to go back, and she couldn't let Ye Mengying go back now. If Ye Mengying went back first, her eldest brother would definitely know that she had sneaked out.
Thinking of this, she immediately reached out to the maid.
The maid hesitated for a moment before handing Ye Yixin's purse to her.
Taking the purse, Ye Yixin stuffed it into Ye Mengying's hand and said, "Cousin, it's still early. Xiu Luoshang has just released a new style. Go buy some nice clothes first, then go to the Treasure Pavilion to pick out two pieces of jewelry you like. It won't be too late to go back later."
When Xiaoliu saw Ye Yixin giving Ye Mengying money again, he couldn't help but ask Nangong Chenyu: "Son-in-law, should we stop it?"
Nangong Chenyu, who was watching the show with great interest, asked in confusion: "Why should we stop them? One of them is willing to fight, and the other is willing to be beaten. If we rush out, we will only be regarded as the bad guys."
Xiaoliu nodded in agreement: "Sir, what you said makes sense."
Then he changed the subject: "But, son-in-law, don't you want the people of the second house to have an easy life? If you don't stop it, the money will fall into the hands of the people of the second house."
Nangong Chenyu glanced at him and said, "I think you are the one who doesn't want the Second House to have a hard time, right?"
Xiao Liu chuckled and said, "We don't want the people from the second house to have an easy time."
While the two were talking, Ye Yixin and Ye Mengying had already reached an agreement. Ye Yixin walked to the other end of the street, while Ye Mengying turned and entered Xiu Luoshang.
Seeing this, Xiaoliu shook his head and said regretfully: "It's a pity that we missed the best time."
"Wait here."
After saying this, Nangong Chenyu quickly walked through the crowd and stepped into Xiu Luoshang. In less than a minute, she came out from the embroidered dress again.
Glancing at the direction Ye Yixin left, Nangong Chenyu called Xiaoliu and the four guards who were waiting at the door of Xiu Luoshang: "Let's go to Chunfeng Tower."
Chunfenglou is the best restaurant in Guyuan County.
In addition to the delicious food and drinks, the decoration is also very elegant. Anyone with a little money would choose this place to entertain guests just to save face.
After entering Chunfeng Tower, Nangong Chenyu left the four guards in the lobby on the first floor and took Xiaoliu with him to the second floor with the waiter. Although the second floor is not a private room, there are bamboo curtains separating each table.
After taking a look around the second floor, Nangong Chenyu walked straight to an empty seat by the window. The seat he chose was right next to Ye Yixin, so it would be convenient for him to watch the show.
After sitting down, he asked the waiter to bring a few signature dishes.
When all the dishes on his side were served, Ye Yixin at the next table didn't come to order any dishes, so it was obvious that she was waiting for someone.
Nangong Chenyu picked up the chopsticks and said to Xiaoliu, "I don't need you to serve me here. Go to the first floor and have dinner with the guards."
Xiaoliu swallowed secretly. Thinking that the people at the next table were ladies, he decisively gave up the opportunity to dine on the first floor.
Without looking away, he said, "I am not hungry yet."
Nangong Chenyu couldn't help but give Xiaoliu a thumbs up: "Xiaoliu, you're great. I didn't expect you could quench your thirst by looking at the plums!"
Xiao Liuzi: “…”
When Nangong Chenyu had eaten half of his meal, Ye Yixin and the others had not arrived yet.
The aroma of food kept coming into Xiaoliu's nose, and he was very greedy. After saying something to Nangong Chenyu, he ran to the first floor to have his meal.
When he quickly finished his lunch and was about to go upstairs, a hand grabbed his arm.
"Are you blind? Can't you see we are about to go up?"
The person who spoke was a man in green clothes, who looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old. He looks gentle, but what he says is not gentle at all.
Xiaoliu was a little confused. The stairs were wide enough for two people to walk side by side. Everyone was going their own way and he wasn't bothering anyone, but for no apparent reason a man grabbed his arm and cursed at him.
"Are you sick? It's such a wide road, I'll go mine and you go yours. You're not a crab, you have to walk sideways."
After saying that, Xiaoliu shook off the man's hand.
The man in blue was thrown off balance and would have fallen flat on his face if his companion hadn't held him back. He saw the servant's clothes that Xiaoliu was wearing and felt that Xiaoliu, a servant, was not worthy of walking in front of him.
That's why he reached out and grabbed Xiaoliu.
In previous situations like this, whenever he accused the other party, the other party would immediately bow and apologize. As a result, he didn't expect that Xiaoliu not only did not apologize, but also verbally insulted him.
"you--"
Xiaoliu snorted coldly and went up to the second floor with his feet stepping on the stairs.
When they reached the second floor, Xiaoliu told Nangong Chenyu what had just happened.
Knowing that Xiaoliu didn't suffer any loss, Nangong Chenyu just listened to it as a joke. But he didn't expect that the other party would find him soon.
A minute later, the man in blue brought two men and one woman to the second floor, and the four of them went straight to the table where Ye Yixin was sitting. Since Nangong Chenyu was sitting a little further away, no one saw him and Xiaoliu.
Except for the man in blue, the other three politely called out, "Miss Ye."
"Everyone, please sit down." Ye Yixin called everyone.
"Sister Xin, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time." The man in blue sat down next to Ye Yixin, looking at her lovingly with a warm smile.
"It's okay, I just got here too."
Ye Yixin responded with a sweet smile.
The two of them looked at each other with a tearful look in their eyes.
The other three looked at each other, their eyes full of amusement.
At this time, the waiter's voice sounded out at an inopportune moment: "Guests, can we order now?"
"Give us a portion of all your Chunfenglou's signature dishes, and two bottles of the best wine." The man in green said generously.
"Okay, everyone, please wait a moment."
The waiter slipped away.
"By the way, Sister Xin, did you see a boy in gray clothes coming up just now?" asked the man in green.
Ye Yixin shook her head: "I didn't see it."
After the man in green entered Chunfeng Tower, she only saw him and would not pay attention to a servant.
"I don't know whose family that servant belongs to. He has no manners at all. Not only did he push my cousin, he also insulted my cousin by calling him a crab."
The person who spoke was another woman among the group, named Zhou Mei. The cousin she was talking about was naturally the man in blue.
When she finished speaking, the other two men agreed.
"I have never seen such an arrogant servant."
"Yes, my servant will apologize immediately no matter who he bumps into."
Xiaoliu, who was eating the melon and biting himself, said: "..."
While listening to the conversation between several people, Nangong Chenyu released his spiritual sense to check their expressions. He found it very interesting to see the people at the table exchanging glances and passing messages.
What’s even more interesting is that the man in blue also looked at Zhou Mei with affection.
An explosive love triangle!
As they talked, they observed Ye Yixin's expression. Most of the people who can dine at Chunfeng Tower are not ordinary people. The few people said this because they wanted Ye Yixin to find the servant and teach him a lesson.
Ye Yixin's mind and eyes are now filled with the man in blue. It is estimated that if the man in blue says that a pile of shit smells good, Ye Yixin will nod in agreement.
She lived up to their expectations and immediately instructed the maid beside her: "Qiuyu, check on the second floor to see if there is a servant wearing gray clothes."
"Yes, ma'am."
Qiuyu looked around, then turned around and walked towards Nangong Chenyu and the others.
When Qiuyu lifted the bamboo curtain, he was stunned.
Xiaoliu glanced at her calmly.
They were all servants of the Ye Mansion, and were also close to the master, so naturally they knew each other.
Nangong Chenyu held the teacup and looked up at Qiuyu with a half-smile.
Suddenly, Qiuyu felt a tingling sensation on his scalp. She seemed to be frozen in place, not daring to move.
Ye Yixin quickly noticed Qiuyu's abnormality and called out, "Qiuyu."
Qiu Yu wanted to withdraw, but she didn't dare. I could only bite the bullet and bow to Nangong Chenyu: "Your servant Qiuyu greets--"
She didn't say the word "son-in-law".
Because Nangong Chenyu put his finger to his lips and made a gesture to keep quiet.
Qiuyu's voice was clear, and she happened to be speaking between two tables, so people on both sides could hear her clearly.
Ye Yixin was completely frozen. The only people who could make Qiu Yu call herself a servant were her family members.
What should she do now?
The others didn't notice her abnormality and turned to look at the next table. However, due to the bamboo curtain, they could only see a person sitting at the next table and another person standing next to him.
Driven by curiosity, except Ye Yixin, the other four stood up, lifted the bamboo curtain and looked at the person at the table.
The man in green didn't pay attention to Nangong Chenyu, but recognized Xiaoliu at a glance.
"It's you."
Xiaoliu uttered a "huh".
"How dare a servant speak so sarcasticly to my cousin." Although Zhou Mei was talking to Xiao Liu, her eyes were looking at Ye Yixin.
At this time, it is naturally Ye Yixin's turn to take the stage.
Unfortunately, no matter how much Ye Yixin is in love, she doesn't dare to speak out at the moment.
