"You two siblings are really treacherous."
Ye Huaisu pinched Gu Tingji's nose helplessly. He was really at a loss as to what to do with his two children, so he had to take out the letter hidden under the pillow.
Looking at the opened letter, she handed it to Ye Wanshu with an embarrassed look on her face: "Wanwan, don't blame your aunt. I'm also worried about how Ah Yin treats you..."
"Aunt, there's no need to explain. Wanwan knows everything."
Ye Wanshu interrupted her, saying, "When Ah Yin married far away in Yuezhou, my grandmother thought she was a little too willful. It's understandable that my aunt was worried that she might bewitch me."
In the past, if her aunt had read her letters without her knowledge, she would have been angry. But now that they were about to part, her aunt had come to her senses and she had no intention of arguing with her anymore.
I opened the letter and read through it roughly. The content was exactly the same as in my previous life. The small letter actually contained more than ten pages of stationery. The words between the lines were full of childhood memories, which was quite moving.
In her previous life, Ye Wanshu was so busy being angry with the Gu brothers that she neglected Ah Yin's intention in writing this letter.
If her life was going well, why would she write so many words in a torrent of words, as if it were a suicide note, almost telling her past experiences in full.
It seems that she must be unhappy in Yuezhou. She is too embarrassed to confide in her family and can only talk to this handkerchief.
Thinking about the letter from her previous life, and the fact that there was no news of Chu Yin, Ye Wanshu could already conclude that something might have happened to this girl in Yuezhou.
"Aunt, I want to go to Yuezhou to see Ayin." Ye Wanshu said solemnly.
This reason was reasonable and fitting into the situation, and she thought her aunt would not be able to refute it.
Ye Huaisu watched the girl from the Chu family grow up. She and her niece were so close that they almost slept together. If he hadn't stopped her, Wanwan would have wanted to marry and go to Yuezhou with her.
These days, the two little ones have been nagging in front of him all day long. In addition, Wanwan's attitude towards her two stepsons has changed. Ye Huaisu has also realized that Wanwan does not want to marry the two brothers again.
A serious illness made her much more sober, and it was meaningless to keep this letter at this point.
I have raised her as my daughter for so many years, and now I have to let her go suddenly. I feel a little uncomfortable.
Suddenly, a soreness came over the corners of his eyes. Ye Huaisu forced a smile and finally compromised: "You and that girl have a deep affection for each other. After so many years of separation, it is only natural for you to want to go see her."
She closed her eyes, slowly stood up, walked over to Ye Wanshu, and solemnly reminded her, "Remember to come back early."
"Okay," Ye Wanshu responded softly, with no change in her expression.
How could Ye Huaisu not see through her thoughts? She had been returning to the Ji family from time to time recently, and Ji Yuan had been arranging a marriage for his niece. This trip to Yuezhou would inevitably require her to have contact with King Yongning. Saying that he asked her to return to the Duke's Mansion was just to ease his mind.
Instructing Madam Fang to fetch a box, Ye Huaisu gestured, "There are three hundred thousand taels of silver in here. My aunt, in a fit of madness, sold off the ancestral property, hoping you would stay peacefully at the Duke's Mansion. Now it seems all her efforts were in vain. If you can't bear to part with your grandmother's house, redeem her."
Looking at the heavy box in Mother Fang's hand, Ye Wanshu felt an inexplicable pang of pain in her heart. She knew that her aunt could see that she had no intention of coming back.
The woman finally listened to what he said before.
"Auntie," Ye Wanshu leaned into Ye Huaisu's arms and said sincerely, "I will come back to see you."
"Silly girl, of course you have to come back to see me. Mian'er and Ji'er have been with you since they were little. How could they bear to leave you behind?"
Ye Huaisu spoke calmly, but at the end he couldn't help but choked up.
Mother Fang felt distressed when she saw this. Having followed the Madam for so many years, she knew what the Madam was thinking best.
The eldest daughter of the Ye family passed away early, and the sisters have always been deeply in love. How could she not value the eldest daughter's only flesh and blood? Although she restricted her cousin in every way, she really loved her and treated her no differently from her own daughter.
From the moment the Madam asked her to exchange the banknotes two days ago, Mother Fang knew that she was planning to let her cousin leave, and her previous words were just a final test.
In front of the others, Fang's mother just tacitly comforted her, "My cousin is just going to Yuezhou. She will be back in a few months at most. Madam, don't worry."
"Yeah, it's only been a few months, but I'm the one who's getting too worried."
Ye Huaisu wiped away his tears with a handkerchief, muttering silently in his heart: "I'm afraid that even if this girl returns to Lin'an, she will not be the daughter-in-law of the Duke of Rong's mansion."
"Go ahead."
Patting Ye Wanshu's palm, Ye Huaisu said softly, "Spend the next two days with Mian'er and Ji'er. When you go to Yuezhou, remember to write to them often."
"I will."
Ye Wanshu nodded, and walked out the door with Gu Qingmian and Gu Tingji holding one of her arms each.
As soon as he reached the door, he ran into Gu Tingchen standing there in a daze, staring at the siblings with vigilance.
"Why are you going to Yuezhou for no reason?" he asked in dissatisfaction, "You didn't even discuss such a big matter with me?"
Thinking about the day his father mentioned Ji Yuan's friendship with King Yongning, Gu Tingchen felt a little uneasy.
"Don't you know that the King of Yongning in Yuezhou is not a good person? If you go to his territory and something happens to you, what will you do?"
"Second cousin, you're worrying too much." Ye Wanshu was puzzled by his attitude. "I have no grudge against Prince Yongning. I'm just visiting an old friend in Yuezhou. He shouldn't be making things difficult for me."
