The two returned to the Ye family. In order to find out the news, Shangguan Lingyun took Ye Xiaoxiao for a walk around the roof of the front yard.
Sure enough, when they turned to Ye Xinxin's yard, they found Ye Laosan whining and Liu Yue'e who was a little scared.
"Why are you here?"
Ye Xinxin looked at Ye Laosan and Liu Yue'e with disgust. Ye Laosan knew at a glance that Ye Xinxin disliked him.
"You are such a heartless ungrateful bastard, Ye Xinxin."
"You still have the nerve to ask why we are here? If we are not here, are we going to the county government office to seek death?"
"You actually want us to help you get rid of Ye Xiaoxiao, and then have Prince Yu kill us to silence us. How can you be so vicious?"
Ye Xinxin frowned, "Ye Lao San, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"When did I ask you to deal with Ye Xiaoxiao?"
Seeing that Ye Xiaoxiao refused to admit it, Ye Laosan became even angrier.
"Ye Xinxin, Ye Xinxin, it's already this late, and you're still pretending to be stupid."
"I'm telling you, if you don't give us an explanation, we're going to complain to General Ye right now."
"I want to see whether they side with you, their vicious adopted daughter, or with their shameless biological daughter."
Shangguan Lingyun was about to attack Ye Xiaoxiao when he heard Ye Lao San insulting her, but fortunately Ye Xiaoxiao was quick enough to stop him.
"Don't be angry, just wait and see what he's going to do."
Having said that, Ye Xiaoxiao actually already had the answer in her heart.
Sure enough, after Ye Lao San finished cursing, he went straight to the point.
"Ye Xinxin, because you are our biological daughter, I changed my mind and did not go directly to General Ye."
"I don't want to kill everyone, so you'd better be more sensible."
"If you're sensible, prepare 10,000 taels of silver for us, and then have Shangguan Yu withdraw the people who are chasing us."
"We promise that we'll take the money and leave, and never disturb your life again."
"But if you don't know what's best for you, we'll tell everyone about all the despicable things you and Prince Yu did."
"I have no objection to Shangguan Yu trying to win over the Ye family, but he's actually using our lives as a weapon. I won't agree to that."
Ye Xinxin was confused and was about to ask Ye Laosan to explain in more detail, but Ye Laosan started to play dirty.
"Ye Xinxin, my patience is limited. If you don't give me money, I will call the entire Ye family here right now."
"If you don't let me live, I'll drag you down with me to die."
Seeing that Ye Laosan was about to shout, Ye Xinxin was afraid of attracting other members of the Ye family, so she quickly covered Ye Laosan's mouth.
"Dad, I'm afraid there's some misunderstanding. Let me explain."
Ye Lao San snorted coldly, pulled open Ye Xinxin's mouth, and said unhappily.
"You know how to call me dad now? It's too late. Forget calling me dad. It's useless even if you call me grandpa."
"Stop talking nonsense, take the silver and we'll leave. Ten thousand taels is nothing to you, but if you provoke me..."
Before Ye Laosan could finish speaking, Ye Xinxin immediately spoke up to stop him.
"You just want money, right? As long as you keep quiet, I'll go get it for you right now."
Seeing that Ye Xinxin was straightforward, Ye Laosan stopped shouting and glared at Ye Xinxin. Ye Xinxin had no choice but to let Qiuping go and get the silver.
Seeing that Ye Lao San was appeased, Ye Xinxin wanted to ask about Prince Yu again.
"Dad, what about Prince Yu you just mentioned? Could it be that you have been staying in Prince Yu's mansion all this time?"
Ye Lao San snorted coldly, "Why are you pretending to be confused? Wasn't it you who gave him the idea?"
"Dad, is there some misunderstanding here? I really didn't let Prince Yu do anything to you!"
"Unjust? No one would be wronged, but I will never wrong you. Stop talking nonsense and take the silver. We will leave after you take the silver."
Ye Laosan was also worried that if he angered Ye Xinxin, she would find someone to hunt him down, which would be troublesome.
Qiuping quickly handed the silver over, but before Qiuping could hand it to Ye Xinxin, Ye Laosan snatched it away.
After taking a look at the banknote and finding no problem, Ye Laosan glared at Liu Yue'e.
"I told you last time that this damn girl was deliberately pretending to be poor in front of us. You didn't believe me, but now you believe me."
"You're the bastard who cheated me. If I had known, I would have asked for more."
When Ye Xinxin heard this, she spoke immediately.
"Dad, you misunderstood. You also know that Prince Yu wants to marry me. This is the betrothal gift I just received, and now I give it all to you."
Ye Laosan curled his lips, obviously not believing it. However, he was in a hurry to escape and was too lazy to talk nonsense with Ye Xinxin.
After taking the money, Ye Laosan pulled Liu Yue'e and was about to leave, but Liu Yue'e suddenly broke free from his hand.
"Old Ye, wait a moment, I want to talk to Xinxin."
Ye Laosan frowned and started cursing at Liu Yue'e, but in the end he did not try to pull her away.
Ye Xiaoxiao and Shangguan Lingyun looked at each other, then they slipped away and returned to Ye Xiaoxiao's room.
Ye Xiaoxiao took out a pen and paper, scribbled a few notes quickly, and then handed them to Shangguan Lingyun.
Shangguan Lingyun took the note without saying a word and disappeared again.
Soon, Ye Pengcheng and his wife and the four sons of the Ye family all received the note.
Although they didn't quite believe it, they knew that someone had broken into the Ye family without anyone knowing. How could they not investigate it thoroughly?
So, while Ye Xinxin was talking to Liu Yue'e, everyone in the Ye family walked towards her yard.
