[Chapter 152] So angry
[Chapter 152] So angry
The direct descendants of the Ye family usually have their spiritual roots tested at the age of six, and the spiritual energy enters their bodies at the age of six. From then on, the family begins to pay them a monthly salary.
Each person can receive about 100 low-grade spirit stones per month, plus some medicinal pills, and other rewards if they perform well.
If one were to supplement Ye Yisheng's monthly salary, it would probably cost about 20,000 low-grade spirit stones.
But if Ye Xian, Ye Yuncheng and Ye Yixin are counted together, at least 100,000 low-grade spirit stones will be needed.
Elder Ye Er naturally didn't want to.
But before he could refuse, he heard Nangong Chenyu asking for his monthly salary.
He was truly shocked.
He even wondered if he had heard it wrong?
Because he felt that Nangong Chenyu, as a disciple of Yunjue Palace, should be proud and would not be short of spirit stones.
With just one glance, Nangong Chenyu knew what Elder Ye Er was thinking. He didn't feel ashamed at all and took the initiative to tell the truth.
"Second Ancestor, you may not know that I am actually a live-in son-in-law."
This news shocked Elder Ye Er even more than asking for his monthly salary.
After the shock, there was a hint of contempt in his eyes when he looked at Nangong Chenyu. In his opinion, only spineless people would marry into a woman's family to become a son-in-law, because marrying into a family's family means being a gigolo.
No matter what era, a son-in-law will be looked down upon by many people.
“Second Elder, why are you looking at me with contempt?” Nangong Chenyu was sincere and said whatever he saw: “Do you look down on me?”
Patriarch Ye Er thought to himself: It’s enough if everyone knows it in their hearts, why do you have to say it out loud? It's embarrassing for me that you said it so directly!
But he denied it: "No, you are mistaken. You are a disciple of Yunjue Palace, and you have a promising future. As the ancestor of the Ye family, I can only be happy to have a cultivation genius like you as the son-in-law of my Ye family."
"That's good." Nangong Chenyu gave Elder Ye Er a look that showed he had good vision.
Elder Ye Er forced a stiff laugh, but he was actually despising him in his heart.
Ye Yisheng brought the topic back: "Second Elder, since you promised to make up the monthly salary, then please prepare the monthly salary for our family for these years."
Elder Ye Er: “…” How could he not know when he promised Ye Yishen to make up the monthly salary for their family?
"Ayu and I will go to my grandfather's residence first."
After Ye Yishen finished speaking, he and Nangong Chenyu walked around the Second Ancestor Ye and continued to move forward.
Taking a deep breath, the Second Patriarch Ye dodged and stood in front of the two again: "Before the patriarch went into seclusion, he sealed off the courtyard where he lived. Even if you two go, you won't be able to get in."
The more he tried to stop them, the more Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yisheng wanted to go and take a look.
Since we couldn't get in, Ye Yisheng said, "Let's just look outside."
After thinking about it, Patriarch Ye Er no longer stopped the two of them, but instead accompanied them to the courtyard where Ye Chenyuan lived. On the way there, he began to inquire about the situation of Ye Xian and his two sons.
"By the way, Yisheng, where are your father, second brother, and younger sister now?"
Ye Yisheng patted his chest and said, "My family is always in my heart."
Before figuring out what the second ancestor Ye’s purpose was, Ye Yisheng naturally wouldn’t tell him the true situation of his father and his younger brothers and sisters.
Elder Ye Er just frowned and continued, "I heard that your father's spiritual roots were dug out by someone. Is he a mortal now, or did he become a cultivator by some strange encounter like you?"
"Second Elder, you want to know my father's situation so much, do you want to subsidize him?" Without waiting for Second Elder Ye to answer, Ye Yisheng said, "If you want to subsidize my father, just give me the subsidy directly."
Elder Ye Er was choked for a moment before he said, "Your family has suffered a lot over the years. As an elder, I should care about you."
"If the Second Ancestor really cares about us, then please give us more spirit stones!" Ye Yisheng said expectantly.
The smile on Elder Ye Er’s face could hardly be maintained. He originally thought that Ye Yisheng was a young man with little knowledge, but he didn't expect him to be so difficult.
Still so tacky.
Out of every three sentences, two can’t be separated from the spirit stone.
As expected, he grew up outside and is not presentable and not likable at all.
Ye Yisheng sighed again, "I heard that elders will give gifts when you meet them for the first time. Unfortunately, the last time I went back to the Ye family, it was a sudden decision, and I left in a hurry, so I didn't receive any gifts."
Very good, they openly asked for a gift. This really opened the eyes of Elder Ye Er. After taking a deep breath, he spoke: "In a few days, the ancestral hall will be opened and your name will be recorded in the family tree. At that time, the elders of the Ye family will show up, and everyone will definitely give you a gift."
"So, Second Elder, you will also give me a gift when the time comes?" Ye Yishen said happily.
Elder Ye Er smiled and said two words through his back teeth: "Naturally."
"I'll give it to you sooner or later. Second Old Ancestor, why don't you give it to me now!" Ye Yisheng stopped and stretched out his hand to the Second Old Ancestor Ye.
"You came back so suddenly that I didn't prepare any gifts. I will give them together with others on the day when the ancestral hall is opened." The second ancestor Ye politely refused. He didn't plan to give Ye Yisheng a gift.
Ye Yisheng snorted in his heart, if the second ancestor Ye dared to plot against him, then he would bleed first.
"No need to prepare, just give me the spirit stones."
Elder Ye Er didn't expect Ye Yisheng to be so shameless, but now that things have come to this, he can only give up some spirit stones to stabilize Ye Yisheng.
Seeing Ye Yisheng receiving the "greeting gift", Nangong Chenyu hurriedly said: "Second Elder, you can't be partial to one and ignore the other."
Elder Ye Er: “…” It’s true that people from the same family stick together.
Suppressing his anger, he took out another dry bag.
Nangong Chenyu couldn't wait to check the "gift" after receiving it. After reading it, he was disappointed: "Only 100,000 low-grade spirit stones, the second ancestor is a bit poor!"
The poor Ye Er Patriarch: "..."
When he arrived at the courtyard where Ye Chenyuan lived, Elder Ye Er didn't get any useful information and instead got very angry.
"From now on, you will stay at the Biluoyuan where you stayed before. I have asked someone to clean it. You can go there by yourselves later. I have something else to do."
After explaining, he turned around and disappeared from their sight. If he continued chatting with the two, he was worried that he would not be able to control himself and attack them.
Seeing him leave like this, Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yishen felt a little regretful that they didn't make him so angry that he vomited blood.
Fortunately, Patriarch Ye Er does not have the ability to read minds, otherwise he might really vomit blood.
After walking around Ye Chenyuan's yard, Nangong Chenyu asked Baihu: "How is it? Can we enter the yard without alerting anyone?"
Baihu nodded: "Awoo~"
Nangong Chenyu took out a photo stone and handed it to Baihu: "Then go in and take a look, and record everything you see."
The white tiger took the image stone with one claw and flashed into Ye Chenyuan's yard.
A quarter of an hour later, the two people and one beast walked into the Biluo Garden.
Nangong Chenyu first checked the entire yard to make sure that there was nothing that shouldn't be there, then he took out the photo stone he had previously given to Baihu.
The yard where Ye Chenyuan lives is filled with various ornamental flowers. Just by looking at them, it seems as if the fragrance of various flowers is lingering in your nose. The scene changed, and there was no one in the house. Everything was arranged neatly and in order, with no signs of a fight.
Not finding any clues at Ye Chenyuan's residence, the two men set their sights on the place where Ye Chenyuan was in seclusion.
Just when the two were planning to find a member of the Ye family to ask where Ye Chenyuan was in seclusion, the Fourth Elder took the initiative to come to the door.
When the fourth elder saw the two people, his first words were: "I just passed by Biluo Garden and saw someone cleaning it, so I guessed that you guys are back."
The three of them sat down at the table, and Ye Yisheng placed the poured tea in front of the Fourth Elder: "Fourth Elder, I want to ask you something."
Without waiting for Ye Yisheng to say what it was, the fourth elder took the initiative to say, "The patriarch went into seclusion the day after you left Qiyu City."
"I won the competition, and the family should have a lot of things to do. Why did grandfather choose to go into seclusion at that time?" Ye Yishen asked puzzled.
"Hmm." The fourth elder came close to the two of them and said in a voice transmission: [Old Ancestor Ye Er relies on his high level of cultivation to get involved in everything. It just so happened that the head of the family felt that his cultivation had weakened, so he simply quit his job and chose to go into seclusion. 】
Nangong Chenyu & Ye Yisheng: "..."
"Then do you know where my grandfather is in seclusion?" Ye Yisheng asked.
The fourth elder didn't think much about it and directly said the place: "I know, it's in the back mountain."
Ye Yisheng was delighted. He didn't expect the answer to come so easily: "Can you take us to see it?"
"This..." The Fourth Elder looked embarrassed.
Nangong Chenyu: "We can't go?"
The fourth elder nodded and said, "Besides the patriarch himself, only the elders and ancestors can go to the place where he is in seclusion."
Ye Yisheng: "Fourth Elder, to be honest with you, the reason we returned to the Ye Mansion is because I received a message that my grandfather was seriously injured."
"The Patriarch is seriously injured?" The fourth elder's first reaction was: "Did something go wrong with his training?"
Ye Yisheng simply played the message he had received earlier to the Fourth Elder.
After hearing this, the fourth elder was shocked: "The patriarch was seriously injured, how come we didn't know?" Then he stood up and said: "I will go to the place where the patriarch is in seclusion to take a look."
Nangong Chenyu hurriedly called out to him, "Fourth Elder, wait a minute."
"Young friend Nangong, is there anything else?" The fourth elder was obviously very anxious.
Nangong Chenyu asked: "Has anything happened to the Ye family recently?"
The fourth elder was a little confused: "No!"
“Just now, the second ancestor took the initiative to say that he wanted to record Ye Yisheng’s name in the Ye family tree.” Nangong Chenyu said.
The fourth elder was really surprised by the news. They all saw how Elder Ye Er treated Ye Yishen.
"Are you serious?"
"Of course I take it seriously. If you leave Biluo Garden and don't go to the back mountain, you should receive this news soon." What Nangong Chenyu didn't say was that if the Fourth Elder went to the back mountain, he would most likely be trapped there.
The fourth elder calmed down and sat down again.
"After the ancestor survived the catastrophe, he was ambushed and injured, and needed to recuperate for several years. Now, only the third ancestor can come out of retreat to compete with the second ancestor, but the third ancestor said when he was in retreat ten years ago that he would not come out until he had a breakthrough."
