Chapter 105 God Has Eyes
Seeing Ye Lanzhou remained silent, he thought she was too sad, so he asked tentatively: "Master?"
Ye Lanzhou's frozen hands suddenly moved. She lowered her eyes and took a sip of hot tea. Her whole body began to warm up. She said, "Hong Luo, can you and I leave today?"
Hong Luo was stunned for a moment. Xie Chengyan asked her to follow Ye Lanzhou, firstly to let her keep an eye on Ye Lanzhou, and secondly to let her help Ye Lanzhou get revenge, but now Ye Lanzhou actually wanted to leave.
After spending these days together, she also felt that Ye Lanzhou was not that kind of person. The Ye family killed her mother and then killed Wangshu. With Ye Lanzhou's temper, how could he leave like that?
"Are you just going to let the Ye family go like this?"
Ye Lanzhou seemed to chuckle, put the teacup on the table, and said, "I didn't say that."
As soon as she finished speaking, the cries of the servants in the yard reached Hong Luo's ears. She felt annoyed and didn't know why these people were working so quietly in the morning and making so much noise.
Hong Luo opened the door and saw that several lanterns in the yard were actually lit. It was really strange. The Ye family was not short of money. The oil lamps they used on weekdays were all top-quality items from the capital. Today was a wedding in the family, and the oil lamps used must be the best. It was estimated that they might not be lit once in several years. It was a cold season now, so why did such an accident happen today?
Several servants scrambled to put out the fire, bringing in water from the basin in the yard and shoveling sand to put out the flames. The noise was so loud that even the maids in Ye Qingshang's courtyard came running over and scolded the servants: "Why did you cause such a mess so early in the morning? Just put out the fire and stop disturbing the peace in the room!"
I only heard a girl holding a basin of water say: "Miss Yue, don't be angry. This fire is very rare. We put out one wave after another. We are also scared-"
"If you can't even do this, what's the point of keeping you in the mansion?"
The maid, Ah Yue, glared at her, and seeing the fire in the yard growing bigger and bigger, she said, "Alright, alright, go put out the fire. Today is the second young lady's wedding day. If the yard isn't decorated well and people laugh at you, you won't get your salary this month!"
Hong Luo saw that the bright red lantern paper looked unusually strange under the light of the flames. The fire was not big, but several servants tried to put it out several times but failed. She suddenly remembered what Ye Lanzhou had said just now. She was still standing at the door and turned to look at Ye Lanzhou who was sitting calmly at the table.
Hong Luo asked in a low voice: "Did you do this?"
Ye Lanzhou also looked up at her, but his eyes didn't show the same shock as hers. He simply said, "I'm too lazy to do these ghostly things to scare people. God has eyes."
The people in the Ye Mansion thought it was just a minor episode and didn't take it to heart. They got up early in the morning to arrange the furnishings of the Ye Mansion and laid out the bright red carpet. When the sun rose over the mountain, the Ye Mansion had already taken on a new look, as if nothing had happened.
There was no peace at the Pei Mansion early in the morning. The wedding procession was half a mile long. Because Pei Song was an idiot, he was followed closely by several guards.
The gongs and drums roared, and the crowds bustled. After all, it was the family's responsibility to maintain their reputation, and it certainly looked like a happy marriage. Many people brought gifts to congratulate Pei Yuanzhong and Madam Pei, their faces filled with flattery and their mouths filled with praise.
Xie Chengyan and Xie Chengyuan went to Pei's house. Xie Chengyuan glanced at the team that was gradually moving away and whispered, "A fool is paired with a cripple. I don't know what these people are congratulating me for."
