Chapter 49 Don't be afraid, it's me, I'm here
Ye Shuang covered her face with her hands. She tasted blood between her lips and teeth. She couldn't believe that Ye Yunchu would hit her. She wanted to glare at him, but when she met Ye Yunchu's cold eyes, she felt more afraid.
The Marquis's wife was also very frightened, but she still felt sorry for her daughter, so she hurried forward to help Ye Shuang up and held her in her arms.
The Marquis's wife was about to say something.
The Marquis started coughing, signaling to his wife not to say anything more. After all, Ye Shuang was wrong in this matter.
"It seems that I didn't learn the rules of a lady at the manor, but instead learned some rustic ways, didn't I?"
Ye Yunchu scolded Ye Shuang again: "How could a good person not learn this? How can a daughter of a marquis be decent?!"
Ye Shuang covered her face and this time she really cried. She buried her face in the Marquis's arms, her eyes red and tears falling.
What is more than grievance is fear and terror, and there is no longer any resentment at all.
"Bring the whip."
Ye Yunchu stretched out his hand, and soon a secret guard with a whip came over and handed the whip to him.
Ye Yunchu held it.
The Marquis's wife was also startled. She hugged Ye Shuang tightly and protected her in her arms: "Yun'er, no, I will definitely discipline your sister and never let her cause trouble again. You can't hit her, you must not hit her."
Ye Shuang was also very frightened. She held Madam Hou tightly and refused to let go. She cried even harder and was shaking a little.
Ye Yunchu sneered: "Now you know you're afraid, but why weren't you afraid when you were joking?"
Madam Hou ordered Ye Shuang: "Hurry up and apologize to my brother and tell him you will never do it again."
Ye Shuang immediately knelt down and cried, "I won't dare to do it again. There won't be a next time. Please don't be angry with me, brother. I know I was wrong."
The Marquis's wife protected Ye Shuang and smiled at Ye Yunchu: "Alright, Shuang'er knows she's wrong. I'm going to punish her by making her kneel in the ancestral hall for two days. No one is allowed to help her. I'm going to punish her severely. Tomorrow I'll go to the farm and bring back the concubine. Yun'er, please don't be angry, or you'll get sick from anger."
The Marquis's wife acted like a loving mother, walked up to Ye Yunchu and patted the grass debris off his body with her handkerchief, looking flattering.
The old lady was deeply concerned about her granddaughter, so she tried to smooth things over: "Alright, I'll definitely give Shuang'er a lecture later and tell her not to get into trouble like this again."
The Marquis also instructed the nanny: "Hurry up and take the young lady to the ancestral hall and make her kneel down. Let's see what a disgrace this is. She must be severely punished."
Ye Qiaoqiao watched Ye Shuang being taken away crying, and she looked very miserable on the surface.
But in fact, they all protected Ye Shuang.
In the future, she will still hold a grudge against her, a concubine's daughter, for complaining to her.
Ye Qiaoqiao smiled bitterly.
Ye Yunchu held the whip and looked at Madam Hou: "Which farm was it sent to?"
The Marquis's wife didn't even know which manor she was sent to. She had to ask someone below her before she was told, "It was Qixia Manor."
Ye Yunchu nodded and greeted the old lady: "Grandson is going out for a while, grandma, go to bed early."
The Marquis's wife hurriedly asked, "It's so late, Yun'er, where are you going?"
Ye Yunchu had already left.
The Marquis then said, "Are we going to Qixia Manor?"
The Marquis's wife's face changed, and she hurriedly asked the servants what time it was. "It's already curfew. Breaking into the city gate at night will result in a report from the censors."
The Marquis's wife pushed the Marquis: "Marquis, why don't you go and stop them?"
The Marquis is about to go.
The old lady scolded him: "Stop."
Then the old lady poked the Marquis' forehead with a look of dismay. "You're a loser yourself, so you assume Yun'er is just as loser. With Yun'er's current abilities, he has every reason to be so arrogant! Not only does he call you useless, but he also only causes trouble for Yun'er. It's just a concubine, after all. How could you two be so unwilling to tolerate her? Tell me exactly what exactly is this concubine's heinous crime?"
The old lady made the marquis and his wife feel ashamed, and she lowered her head and dared not say a word.
Finally, he beat them up again before leaving.
Ye Yunchu was riding the imperially bestowed Zhuifeng. The gatekeepers were about to scold him when they saw the token in his hand and hurriedly ordered someone to open the door and respectfully escort him out of the city.
Ye Yunchu galloped all the way with his secret guards.
Qixia Manor.
Li Runrun was covered in cold sweat and had been having nightmares since she huddled in the haystack.
I dreamed that she was walking in a thick fog. There was no light, and it felt suffocating and depressing.
Then she heard Li Mutou's voice: "Sister, sister, save me."
Li Runrun ran over anxiously, only to see Li Mutou sitting on the ground with a pool of blood under him.
Li Runrun went up to save him, but many wild wolves suddenly appeared from nowhere.
Li Runrun desperately threw stones at the wolf to protect her brother, but she saw a wolf holding Li Da's head in its mouth.
Li Ruanruan screamed immediately, and at this moment, the wild wolf took the pear wood away and shared it to eat.
Li Ruanruan's fingers dug into the bloodstains on the ground, her face covered in blood and tears as she cried hysterically: "Give my brother and dad back to me!"
She threw stones desperately, but a wild wolf suddenly pounced on her, leaving her unable to struggle.
Li Runrun suddenly woke up in a cold sweat, and found that someone was kneeling beside her in the dark, looking at her.
It was a man, reeking of alcohol, with rough hands from years of hard work. He touched her face and said, "Beauty, hey, beauty, are you having a nightmare? Don't be afraid, I'm here~"
He rushed towards Li Ruanruan, but Li Ruanruan rolled over and dodged. She picked up a piece of wood in the dark and said, "Don't come over."
The man wasn't afraid at all. He approached Li Ruanruan step by step in the darkness, taking off his outer robe as he approached, and soon he was shirtless. "You look cold, but it's okay. Let's exercise together and you won't be cold anymore!"
Li Ruanruan raised the wood and threw it at him fiercely, but he stopped it with one hand: "Ouch, it still hurts a little. But this little pain is nothing compared to you."
Li Runrun felt powerless all over, her injured body made her extremely weak. She knew that she only had one chance.
Either kill him or let him succeed.
Li's soft hand touched the wooden hairpin in her hair, and her thumb slid across the sharp end of the hairpin.
When the opponent rushed towards her, Li Ruanruan stabbed the opponent's eyes fiercely.
Blood splattered on Li Runrun's face, and she rolled on the ground screaming, covering her eyes.
Li Runrun opened the door of the woodshed and ran away without looking back.
Just as she ran to the road, she heard the sound of horse hooves. Li Ruanruan was frightened and fell to the ground, curled up to protect her head, to prevent herself from being trampled to death by the horse's hooves.
The horse's hooves did not fall on her, but stopped abruptly. The next moment, she was held in someone's arms.
"Ruanruan, it's me."
Li Ruoruan lowered her hands that were protecting her head. She looked at the face of the prince, which could not possibly appear here, and tears instantly fell.
She seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, squeezing Ye Yunchu's hand tightly: "My Lord, my father and brother, are they still alive?"
