The story began last year, when Wei Chen's grandfather, Old Wei, had a chance encounter with a so-called master. The master bluntly stated that Wei Chen wasn't born mentally retarded, but rather possessed by an evil spirit. He advised him to marry a woman named Ye, born at noon on the first lunar month, whose name contained the character "水" (water), for a safe life, and even for the disappearance of his mental retardation.
Anyway, Wei Chen has already reached the marriageable age, but because he is stupid, no one has arranged for him to get married.
After hearing what the master said, Old Man Wei decided to believe it and began to look all over the Harbor City for a girl who met the requirements.
In the end, there were only two girls in Harbor City who met the requirements.
The amazing thing is that both girls are named Ye Qin.
One is Ye Qin, the youngest daughter of the Ye family in the east of the city. Her family is in the security business and she has a decent family background and looks, but unfortunately she is too young to reach the legal age for marriage.
The other one was the current eldest daughter-in-law, Ye Qin, who lived in an ordinary family in the west of the city and would reach the legal marriage age after the New Year. Given this, Old Master Wei was certain that Ye Qin was the one the master had mentioned, the destined one for Wei Chen.
Old Master Wei personally went to the Ye family in the west of the city, expressed his desire for marriage, and offered a generous betrothal gift. The Ye family agreed to the marriage without much thought.
After the New Year, he married the current Ye Qin to his family.
Wei Chen didn't believe in this so-called destiny. He had no other feelings towards Ye Qin except disgust and wariness.
Lei Zhan looked at Wei Chen's expression and said, "Ye Qin beat Wang Meisha today. Madam Wu Mei will definitely not let her off easily. Is there anything I can do?"
"No need. What happens to her has nothing to do with me." Wei Chen's tone was full of sarcasm and disdain.
"Okay." Lei Zhan agreed, and he understood in his heart why Wei Chen hated Ye Qin so much.
Ye Qin, the eldest young lady, has always tried every possible means to attract the attention of the East Courtyard, especially the attention of the second young master Wei Yan.
However, he was never liked by the people in the East Courtyard, and instead existed in the Wei family like a joke.
The Wei family even forbade her to identify herself as a member of the Wei family to outsiders, forbade her to meet outsiders, and even more so, forbade her to take her to any activities.
She, the eldest young lady, was completely useless and was not even as capable as a capable servant in the East Courtyard.
Therefore, she vented all her resentment and anger on her boss Wei Chen.
Therefore, although Ye Qin's behavior of beating Wang Meisha today was abnormal, it did not mean anything.
At this time, there was a knock on the door from Aunt He, who was delivering food.
Wei Chen nodded, and Lei Zhan disappeared from the room.
Aunt He knocked on the door and then came in. She was holding a tray with a simple meal of rice and vegetables on it.
"Young Master, please eat something." Aunt He looked at Wei Chen and didn't notice anything unusual.
Although Wei Chen was silly during the day, he was usually quiet and played by himself. So, even if he returned to normal after dark, as long as he stayed quiet, he would not attract attention.
"Yeah." Wei Chen glanced at the food and didn't move.
Aunt He knew that Wei Chen didn't like being watched. "Then eat it yourself. Sigh, I don't know how she is doing..."
…
The Wei family is a large family with a long history in Haigang City. The Wei family mansion was left by their ancestors. Apart from necessary renovations and maintenance over the years, it has basically maintained its antique appearance.
It is divided into two courtyards, east and west. The east courtyard is the main courtyard, where the owner of this house lives. It is luxurious and grand, and exudes dignity everywhere.
The west courtyard is very remote and is usually reserved for servants to live in or for poor relatives to stay temporarily.
However, the eldest young master Wei Chen was arranged to live in the west courtyard.
Ye Qin strolled slowly from the west courtyard to the east courtyard. The servants she met on the way either gloated over her misfortune or pointed and talked about her.
It is estimated that the news that she beat Wang Meisha has spread throughout the entire Wei family.
