However, what Ye Fei didn't expect was that someone came to the cell.
And these people's target is their family.
When they arrived at the door of Ye Fei's family's cell, they sniffed and looked at Ye Fei and the others with confusion.
One of the jailers even asked, "What's that smell? Do you smell it?"
"Why do I smell food and meat?"
Although Ye Fei cleaned up after Ye Qingyun and the others finished eating.
But the smell still lingers in the air.
But no one could answer the jailer's question.
Moreover, they really couldn't imagine that Ye Fei's family had food and meat in the prison cell.
They couldn't explain why they smelled such a smell in the cell.
Seeing that the jailer was looking for his family, Ye Qingyun immediately stepped forward with a simple and honest look and started talking:
"Sir, Sir, why did you come to see us so early?"
"Has it been confirmed that our family is innocent, so they are going to let us go?"
The jailer looked at Ye Qingyun and sneered: "You are a very carefree family."
"We're already in the cell, why are you still so unhurried?"
"But you are lucky today. The city lord's wife wants your help with something."
The jailer looked Ye Fei and the others up and down when he said this: "Although I don't know what the City Lord's wife wants you to do for her."
"Anyway, since you have helped the city lord's wife, your family will be able to fly up to the tree and become a phoenix."
Ye Qingyun and Lin Xue'e's faces were full of questions.
"Help the city lord's wife?"
Ye Qingyun looked at the jailer and couldn't help but said, "We are just ordinary people. How can we help the wife of the city lord?"
"Sir, you guys are not mistaken, are you?"
The jailer waved his hands when he heard this: "It's impossible to be wrong."
"Since the City Lord's wife asked you to help, just go with peace of mind."
"As for the rest, you will know when you get there."
When Ye Fei heard this, his eyes suddenly turned cold.
She had already guessed what the City Lord's wife meant by help.
But it’s better not...
Otherwise, Ye Fei would not tolerate it.
But it doesn’t matter to follow these jailers to the City Lord’s Mansion now. Ye Fei just wants to watch what happens next.
After leaving the cell, Ye Fei and his family were quickly taken into a large house.
Then, servants from the City Lord's Mansion came over one after another with buckets of hot water.
Ye Qingyun asked in confusion: "What does this mean?"
"Didn't the mayor's wife ask us to come over to help? Why are we carrying so much hot water?"
The servant of the City Lord's Mansion replied respectfully: "It was the City Lord's wife's idea."
"Madam asked everyone to wash up before going to see her."
"These are the clothes that the city lord's wife prepared for you."
"If you need anything else, just let us know."
"We'll wait outside."
After saying this, the servant from the City Lord's Mansion went out.
Ye Fei looked at the clothes sent by the servants of the City Lord's Mansion. The materials of these clothes were very good.
Most people simply can’t afford it.
Ye Fei raised her eyebrows.
She was somewhat surprised at the way the city lord's wife thought.
Is this to make the family let down their guard?
Or do you think that only by dressing up their whole family beautifully would you be worthy of helping her?
Ye Fei thought it was probably the latter.
After all, they are in the City Lord's Mansion, and the City Lord's wife will not take Ye Fei's family seriously at all.
The people from the City Lord's Mansion left, leaving Ye Fei and his family of four standing there looking at each other in bewilderment.
Ye Qingyun was silent for a while before speaking: "Fei'er, what should we do now?"
"Do you really want to take a good wash with hot water?"
"Why do I feel like this is so wrong?"
"The City Lord's wife doesn't know us, so why would she suddenly ask us for help?"
"Besides, the status of the city lord's wife is so noble, why would she ask for help from a few sloppy-looking people like us?"
"This help gives me a bad feeling."
Ye Qingyun observed the surroundings for a while before saying softly: "Fei'er, how about I run away from here?"
"It seems that Yuecheng is not a peaceful place either."
"Although I don't know what the city lord's wife is up to, I don't think it's a good thing."
"It's better for us to stay away."
"I'm afraid it's impossible for us to stay in Moon City."
Ye Qingyun has a sense of crisis.
He went on to analyze the family's situation:
"It's naturally a good thing to be able to make friends with the City Lord's Mansion, but you also have to consider your own capabilities."
"This kind of pie-in-the-sky thing doesn't seem to be reliable at first glance."
"No matter what the City Lord's wife is doing to us, there is no need for us to get involved in this mess."
"Fei'er, what do you think?"
Three pairs of eyes immediately looked at Ye Fei.
Ye Fei nodded happily: "Dad is right."
Just when Ye Qingyun thought they were about to leave the City Lord's Mansion, Ye Fei Ye Fei continued:
"But we can't leave the City Lord's Mansion yet."
“We cannot just treat the symptoms of the problem without addressing the root cause.”
"Someone has to pay for his actions."
Ye Qingyun's expression was distorted when he heard this: "Fei'er, what do you mean?"
"So now...are we really going to take a shower and change clothes as the City Lord's wife said?"
"I don't want to clear myself completely and then be inexplicably plotted against by the people in the City Lord's Mansion."
“I think we’re good the way we are now.”
"Even if something happens, they won't be able to find us after we leave the City Lord's Mansion."
"If we wash ourselves clean, our faces will be clearly seen by the people in the City Lord's Mansion."
"There will definitely be a lot of trouble after leaving the City Lord's Mansion."
As for what Ye Fei said about someone having to pay the price, Ye Qingyun had no idea what he was talking about.
Ye Fei understood Ye Qingyun's concerns when she heard them.
After all, the ancient times were an era of imperial power, and revealing one's true face and disrupting the City Lord's Mansion would definitely cause trouble.
No matter what, Ye Qingyun is a genuine ancient person.
It is natural for him to want to keep his family safe.
In fact, it doesn’t matter to Ye Fei whether her true face is revealed or not.
But if Ye Qingyun thinks it is important, Ye Fei will meet his requirements and reduce his worries.
The whole family washed themselves clean with hot water, except for their faces.
After taking a hot bath, the whole family felt refreshed.
The servant of the City Lord's Mansion who was waiting outside pushed the door and walked in after hearing the noise from Ye Fei's family.
But the smiles on their faces froze when they saw that Ye Fei's family was still wearing tattered clothes:
"You...you didn't wash?"
Some thoughtful servants have gone to check around the bathing areas.
Then he asked again:
"No, you have already washed it."
"In that case, why do you still wear these tattered clothes?"
"Also, why don't you wash your faces?"
One of the servants of the City Lord's Mansion even criticized Ye Fei's family of four with dissatisfaction:
"You really don't know what's good for you. You've wasted the City Lord's wife's efforts."
"A poor life is a poor life. You don't know how to enjoy the wealth in front of you."
"No matter what you think, the orders of the City Lord's wife must be carried out."
"Since you guys don't obey, don't blame us for taking action ourselves."
As she spoke, she loudly ordered the others: "You guys hold them down."
"I want to see what their faces look like. They are hiding their true colors and acting in a shameful way."
