Chapter 105 Appearance
“She’s rich, Brother Wen. Don’t let her appearance fool you, her family eats meat all the time. Can ordinary families eat meat every day?”
Ye Yaozu gritted his teeth. He had secretly gone to Ye Wan's place several times and smelled the aroma of meat several times.
Ye Wan, that good-for-nothing, is living the high life. How come she wasn't beaten to death by Lin Anyuan?
"How do you know all this so clearly? Is it your lover?"
Wen Ge gave Ye Yaozu a lewd look. This kid was pretty good-looking, the type that young women liked.
Business at the gambling den hasn't been good lately, and he and his brothers haven't been with any women for a long time. They never expected this guy to actually come to them.
"No, not Brother Wen, this is my sister. Her husband is dead. She's unfilial and never comes back to her parents' home. Her mother is almost driven to death by her. That's why I thought I'd teach her a lesson." Ye Yaozu explained, bowing and scraping.
Brother Wen was a henchman at the gambling den, and he got his connection with Brother Wen through connections.
Ye Wan is a madman. When he goes crazy, he takes a sickle and attacks people. This time, Ye Yaozu has learned his lesson and won't go himself.
When the time comes, Brother Wen will lead his men to deal with Ye Wan and make him behave before he steps in.
"This is your own sister, you're such a jerk!"
Wen Ge then turned his gaze to Ye Wan.
I misjudged her earlier; she really is a beauty, just a bit dark-skinned.
“My own sister is even worse. My wife and the baby in her belly are waiting to be fed, but she’s living the high life and doesn’t care about her own mother’s life or death at all.” Ye Yaozu kept listing Ye Wan’s “crimes”.
"Alright, let's do it tonight. You lead the way, kid."
Yes, yes.
Ye Yaozu nodded and bowed.
"Ye Yaozu, didn't you say you'd be back soon? Where have you gone again? Don't you care about your son at all?" Xianglan, heavily pregnant, walked over with an impatient look on her face.
Ye Yaozu hurriedly went over to help the man up, and when he saw Brother Wen looking over, he said, "Brother Wen, this is my wife, Xianglan."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Brother Wen slapped Xianglan on the buttocks. "Xianglan, I know her."
"oops!"
Xianglan's expression changed, then she gave him a flirtatious wink, "Brother Wen, go easy on me, you're hurting me."
Ye Yaozu's face turned pale, and he looked at Xianglan in disbelief.
How did Xianglan and Brother Wen meet?
Xianglan seemed to just realize what was happening, and glared angrily at Ye Yaozu, "What are you looking at? Hurry up and go home, I'm exhausted."
Before leaving, Xianglan gave Wen Ge a wink.
Wen Ge rubbed his fingers together and looked at Ye Wan not far away.
Ye Wan was blocked for a moment, but seeing that the person on the ground could only cry, she simply took a detour.
She's just unlucky to have run into such a weirdo.
"Hey, Tao Chuang, what are you crying about, you scholar? Have you gone stupid from reading too much?"
A man on the street joked that they all lived in the poorest part of the west, and this guy turned out to be a scholar. After a while, everyone got to know each other.
Ye Wan, who had already taken several steps, suddenly turned around and asked, "Are you Tao Chuang?"
"What, what's wrong?" Tao Chuang wiped away his tears and shrank back.
What's wrong? That look is like he's going to eat him alive. Does he even know this person?
Ye Wan said speechlessly, "I suddenly remembered, when the results were released before, I called out to Tao Chuang, what did you say again?"
"Sister-in-law, big sister, I don't know you at all. You're pretending to be my relative. I'm afraid you're a bad person!" Tao Chuang stood up and took a step back. Could it be that he was so unlucky?
Not only could they not find their benefactor, but their steamed buns were also stolen, and their deception was discovered.
Ye Wan, who was called "sister-in-law" or "elder sister," gritted her teeth and said, "You don't believe me when I say I'm your relative? Come on, come and meet me."
The old man didn't say it, but he was still thinking about this old friend's son. He never expected that this person would be hanging around right under his nose. He was really impressed.
"Hey, hey, where are you taking me?"
Tao Chuang was pulled along by his sleeve, his face turning pale. "Big sister, let go of me! Men and women shouldn't touch each other!"
Ye Wan wished she could shut him up the whole way. How could a grown man be so talkative!
After finally bringing the person to the coughing old man, the two recognized each other, and Ye Wan breathed a sigh of relief.
After drinking several sips of water, she said to Aunt Cai, who was concerned about her, "Mother, I happened to run into them and brought them back."
"You silly child, you say you don't care, but you've run off several times already."
Aunt Cai looked at Ye Wan reproachfully.
"Mother, you two catch up, I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."
Ye Wan just came to visit. She had tried to persuade the old couple to go to the countryside with her several times, but they refused. So she stopped trying to persuade them.
No sooner had Ye Wan left than the old man spoke up, "Old woman, lock the door at home, I'm going out for a bit."
Aunt Cai looked at him and said, "Where are you going? Don't do anything foolish. We've been living in anonymity for so many years. If you step forward at this critical moment, you'll be going against your original intentions."
The old man sighed, and Aunt Cai waved her hand in response.
"Fine, I won't say anything more to you. Go do whatever you want."
Tao Chuang felt much more relaxed when he saw that only Aunt Cai was there.
He cautiously looked at Aunt Cai and asked, "Auntie, you don't seem to have changed at all?"
He only met Aunt Cai once or twice when he was a child. So many years have passed, and he has grown up so much. Why does Aunt Cai still look so young?
Aunt Cai touched her full head of black hair and said with a smile, "Is that so? My daughter is so filial, and I feel like I'm getting younger and younger."
“You’re such a child. Your uncle has been looking for you for many days, but you just missed the chance when the baby was right in front of you.”
"I don't know either," Tao Chuang said, scratching his head.
Aunt Cai smiled and said, "It's true that fools have their luck, and it's fate that you happened to meet my daughter."
Just two months ago, she was an old woman who felt she wouldn't live much longer, but now Aunt Cai feels she's still young.
...
...
"Young master, Master Fang is in Min County. Don't leave yet. The old lady said that if you can become Master Fang's disciple, you will definitely be on the list of successful candidates!"
Steward Liu ran from the old lady's courtyard to Young Master Liu's courtyard.
Liu Wenshu was already packing his bags to leave, and didn't react much to the news. "I said I wanted to become a disciple, and Fang Daru actually accepted me as a student? Isn't that wishful thinking?"
The news of Fang Daru's presence in Minxian has been circulating for so long, but apart from that painting, no one has heard of anyone actually seeing Fang Daru.
"Young master, it seems to be for real this time. Going is better than not going. Don't let the old lady down."
As he spoke, Manager Liu winked at his son.
You should quickly try to persuade the young master.
Yantai quickly spoke up, "Yes, young master, it won't make a difference whether we go or not. Aren't we going to Xilai Restaurant anyway? It's on our way."
When Xilailou was mentioned, Liu Wenshu smiled and couldn't help but think of Lady Ye.
