Chapter 308 They're gone.
Just as Ye Wan stood up, the sound of a stool hitting the floor came from the private room next door.
"Damn it, you poor wretch, what's wrong with me asking you to give up your seat? I paid you to do it, so instead of being grateful, what are you pretending for!"
"What are you pretending for? We haven't finished our meal. We've already said no, and that's final. Are you trying to force us to do something against our will?" Feng Xinshui's face also darkened.
Where did this blind fool come from?
They were enjoying their meal when this idiot suddenly showed up and demanded a private room, telling them to leave.
"Ha, a poor, penniless scholar, daring to eat in a place like this? Take your money and get out of here! Trying to act all high and mighty in front of a young lady? You'll only end up losing more face!"
The fat, big-eared man's gaze swept mockingly over Feng Xinshui and Ye Hua.
"you……"
Ye Hua tugged at Feng Xinshui's sleeve, "Forget it, let's just pay up and find another place to eat. There's no need to be angry."
The fat man glanced at Ye Hua and said, "Young lady, you're quite sensible. But you're not bad-looking either, so why did you end up with a poor scholar? These kinds of poor scholars are the best at lying. Why don't you come with me? You're not so shabby. Order these dishes!"
"What nonsense are you spouting!" Ye Hua had only spoken half a sentence when she heard the voice behind her.
"Big sister?"
Ye Wan was a little surprised to see Ye Hua.
When her carriage went to pick someone up, the girl who came out said that Ye Hua still had class, so they came first. They didn't expect that she was already at Juxiang Garden.
When Ye Hua saw Ye Wan, her face flushed red. She opened her mouth and whispered, "Little sister."
The fat man saw Ye Wan wipe her mouth and looked like a lecherous man, "She's really beautiful, so beautiful. It's a pity she's a married woman."
"What happened?" Ye Wan asked.
The waiter hurriedly explained that there weren't enough private rooms, but this young master Peng insisted on sitting in one. In addition, he had been drinking and was quite arrogant, so he started paying to kick him out.
"You two blind fools have ruined my mood." Fatty Peng looked at Ye Wan. "How about you call me 'good brother,' and I'll spare your sister and her lover today?"
Ye Hua's expression changed slightly.
"Shopkeeper, come out and say something," Ye Wan said, unwilling to waste words.
How can you fight over a private room like that? She doesn't interfere with Juxiangyuan's business.
The innkeeper arrived quickly, somewhat embarrassed: "Well... since these two guests went in first, then let them eat first. They were frightened, so this week's meal is free."
"Young Master Peng, I'll find you another private room, what do you think..."
Neither side could be offended, and the shopkeeper, knowing Ye Wan's opinion, decided to persuade Young Master Peng to back down.
This woman is protected by Prince Jing, and even the prefect of Jingzhou has to give her face. She is also the wife of General Lin.
Fatty Peng glared at him and said, "You old codger, think it through before you speak. I've got my eye on this private room. Do you even know who my family is?"
Young Master Pei spoke up, "Say your name and let us know."
"I'm Lord Peng's nephew, who do you think you are..." Fatty Peng said, but then suddenly realized that this person seemed to be a member of the Pei family.
Young Master Pei nodded. "I see. I'll remember that. I'll ask Lord Peng when I get back. So he has such great power that he can indulge his nephew in doing whatever he wants."
"This...Young Master Pei, Young Master Pei, I was just joking, it was definitely a misunderstanding!"
Fatty Peng had already woken up in fright and hurriedly apologized with a shameless smile.
"Third Young Master, I didn't expect you to be dining here. If I had known, I would never have disturbed your enjoyment. I..."
"So noisy!"
Pei Zhichuan frowned, and Fatty Peng, like a rooster whose neck had been choked, turned red and quickly left.
He was afraid of really angering this person.
Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse. Although many aristocratic families are not as well off as before, the Pei family is different.
This family has a long history of official service, with members still highly valued by Prince Jing. How could they possibly fall so easily?
"Big sister, are you alright?" Ye Wan asked Ye Hua.
Ye Hua felt really bad and a little guilty. She shouldn't have kept it from her own sister. If Ye Wan hadn't come, that fat man definitely wouldn't have let it go.
"It's okay, you just came right after we started arguing."
She had never mentioned Feng Xinshui to Ye Wan.
Ye Wan looked at Feng Xinshui, "And this is..."
"This is Mr. Feng. We met by chance, and he occasionally goes over to help out." Ye Hua briefly explained how she and Feng Xinshui met.
“Speaking of which, it should be Lady Ye who saved my life.” Feng Xinshui smiled, her peach blossom eyes very captivating.
"Your surname is Feng?" Ye Wan smiled.
"Yes, Feng Xinshui."
"It's a rather unusual name. I didn't expect to see you here. In that case, why don't we dine together?"
Feng Xinshui nodded, "That would be wonderful. If I had known earlier that Madam Ye's sister was here, I would have come over to say hello sooner."
Feng Xinshui was dressed as a scholar. Although the fabric of her clothes was not very good, they looked very clean, so one could not feel any disgust towards her.
"Sit down with me, Madam Ye probably hasn't eaten enough yet," Pei Zhichuan said, as if the awkward situation from earlier had never happened.
Aunt Cai laughed and said, "This young man is quite handsome. I wonder who else is in his family? Is he married?"
“My family suffered a disaster, and now I am all alone and unmarried.”
Aunt Cai nodded in satisfaction. "It's alright. Being alone is fine. No one will bother you. You'll be free and easy. Even if you marry into another family, no one will care."
"Mother, have a bowl of hangover soup." Ye Wan's lips twitched.
"I'm not drunk." Aunt Cai waved her hand, then turned around and slumped onto the table, fast asleep.
Ye Wan had no choice but to help the person inside to rest.
After that, everyone ate quietly, with Ye Wan occasionally asking Feng Xinshui a few questions.
After eating until she was about 80% full, Ye Wan put down her chopsticks. "It's about time for today, so we'll head back now. Thank you for your hospitality, Third Young Master Pei."
Pei Zhichuan smiled, his smile as gentle as a breeze and the bright moon. "No need to thank me. The innkeeper has already treated us to this table. Please take care, Madam Ye."
When Huigu saw Ye Wan helping Granny Cai, she hurried over and said, "Madam, I'll help the old lady."
"Don't worry, Madam, I have plenty of strength and means."
As he was speaking, he picked the person up in his arms.
Ye Wan: ...
When they went out, Ye Wan was worried that Aunt Cai would catch a cold, so she took off her cloak to shield her from the wind.
Neither of the two women standing at the door noticed that they had already boarded the carriage.
After waiting for a long time, Tao Mingzhu, who was almost frozen, saw an extremely handsome man at the door and her eyes lit up.
She couldn't help but tug at Ke Xinrui's sleeve.
Unfortunately, Pei Zhichuan only stayed for a short while before getting into the carriage.
Tao Mingzhu hurriedly asked, "Which aristocratic family's scion is this, to be so talented..."
The waiter who came out to see them off glanced at them and said, "You don't know? It's the third young master of the Pei family."
Ke Xinrui hurriedly asked, "The Pei family of Prime Minister Pei?"
"Otherwise, which Pei family would you choose? Are you still going to wait here? Almost all the customers have left." The waiter felt sorry for the young girl who looked so cold and kindly reminded her.
Ke Xinrui was stunned when she heard this. "They're all gone? That old lady left too?"
"Yeah, let's go!"
When did you leave?
"Just now."
"..."
