Chapter 129 Birthday Gift (Update 1)
Xu Rongqing looked at her and saw that she looked normal with a faint smile on her face, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He took the umbrella and said with some shame: "Sister Chutang, you are too polite. Actually, I really didn't help you at all."
When he came, he was worried that Ye Chutang would be bullied. But after arriving, he found that Ye Chutang was calm and composed from beginning to end, and could solve the problem properly and thoughtfully without his help.
Ye Chutang smiled and shook his head: "Under the circumstances, Mr. Xu is willing to come all the way here, his kindness is already very precious."
The Ye family was in chaos and no one wanted to get involved, but Xu Rongqing came anyway.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this also represents Xu Fengchi’s attitude.
After today, the Xu family openly broke up with Ye Heng and stood on Ye Chutang's side.
Ye Chutang knew how rare this friendship was.
Seeing that her brows were relaxed and that she really wasn't affected by these things, Xu Rongqing felt relieved and started to smile as well.
"If Ah Yan and Ah Feng knew about this, they would definitely be very happy."
Ye Chutang chuckled and nodded: "I'm going to the Imperial College later."
Xu Rongqing glanced at the servants who were busy in the yard.
Those were people from the Princess's Mansion, so it went without saying that they were very good at doing things, and Ye Chutang indeed saved himself a lot of worry.
He tightened his grip on the umbrella handle and finally said, "Since the matter here has been resolved, I will go back first. If you need any help in the future, Sister Chutang, please feel free to ask."
I have to say that Xu Rongqing is indeed a person who knows his limits.
Ye Chutang's smile deepened and he bowed.
Xu Rongqing then climbed onto the horse. He caught a glimpse of the carriage from the Dingbei Marquis' Mansion from the corner of his eye. He paused, but ultimately said nothing.
Today's events were ultimately attributed to the eldest princess's support for Ye Chutang, and the presence of Chen Yanchuan was the best proof.
In this way, many people will be able to dispel their thoughts and will not dare to offend Ye Chutang casually in the future.
"drive!"
Xu Rongqing rode away on his horse and his figure quickly disappeared at the end of the alley.
The crowd of onlookers also dispersed with a sense of unfulfilled desire. The excitement at the Ye family was probably enough for them to talk about for a month after dinner.
Ye Chutang came to the front of the carriage, took out a small green jade bottle from his sleeve and handed it to Lian Zhou.
"Thank you for today, Your Highness. It's been hot lately, and this is the peppermint ointment I made myself. When you feel sleepy, just sniff it and it will refresh your mind. It's not a valuable thing, so I'd like to give it to Your Highness as a token of my gratitude."
Lian Zhou was delighted. He didn't expect that he would have an unexpected gain on this trip. He immediately stretched out his hands to receive it.
"Oh, how can this be so embarrassing——"
Before he could finish his words, a slender hand like jade lifted the curtain.
Shen Yanchuan looked over quietly.
Lian Zhou seemed to sense something, and immediately withdrew his hand and turned around, saying excitedly: "Master, this is a gift from Doctor Ye!"
Chen Yanchuan: “…”
You could speak a little louder.
He looked at Ye Chutang, his lips curved, "Dr. Ye prepared it himself, it's priceless."
This is the truth. After all, the medical fees he paid before were more than this amount.
Ye Chutang seemed not to have noticed his teasing at all. He took a step forward and handed the thing over directly.
"As long as the prince doesn't mind."
Chen Yanchuan put away the bottle of medicine, and his slightly cool fingertips accidentally brushed against it.
Ye Chutang stepped back, curled his hands slightly uncomfortably, and then reminded in a gentle voice: "The summer heat is very hot these days, and the prince is in good health, so you should rest more and avoid the heat."
Chen Yanchuan's eyes moved slightly, and he looked at Ye Chutang again, but saw that the girl had a calm expression, as if she had just mentioned it casually.
He put the things away, and there seemed to be a hint of smile in his tone.
"Of course we have to listen to Doctor Ye's medical advice."
…
When Ye Chutang brought Xiaowu to the Imperial College, Ye Jingyan and Ye Yunfeng were already waiting at the door.
"Sister!"
Ye Yunfeng saw them and immediately waved to them.
Ye Chutang glanced at the two brothers and asked, "Have you been waiting here for a long time?"
Ye Jingyan shook his head: "No, Afeng and I just asked for leave from the teaching assistant and came here."
"Yes! My third brother and I followed my elder sister's instructions carefully and waited until the afternoon classes were over before asking for leave to go home!" Ye Yunfeng looked excited. "Didn't my elder sister say that today is my third brother's fourteenth birthday and we should celebrate it well?"
Ye Chutang smiled, knowing exactly what he was thinking.
"But you've only been back at the Imperial College for a few days and you already want to go out and play. Your temper remains the same as always."
Ye Yunfeng chuckled, but did not deny it. He flattered her, "The articles I have been talking about in class these days are all the ones that Sister has taught before. They are boring. It's better to come out and get some fresh air!"
Ye Chutang looked at him in surprise: "What can you still remember that you have learned?"
Ye Yunfeng coughed hard and said guiltily, "Third brother said so."
really.
Ye Chutang had not originally expected him to study, so he invited the two of them to get on the carriage.
"There's a happy event today, so I'll make an exception."
Ye Yunfeng couldn't help but ask, "Happy event? Besides Third Brother's birthday, is there any other happy event?"
Ye Jingyan also looked inquiring.
My sister has always been very principled about his studies, and generally speaking, she would not let them take special leave to go home.
Unless something really happened...
Ye Chutang curled her red lips, turned her gaze to Ye Jingyan, and smiled softly:
"Actually, it's also related to Ah Yan. You'll know when you get home."
Ye Jingyan was stunned.
Ye Yunfeng was extremely curious. He scratched his ears and cheeks, wishing he could fly back immediately and whip his horse.
The carriage sped along.
However, when they were halfway there, Ye Chutang called out to Ye Yunfeng to stop the car.
Seeing Ye Chutang get off the carriage and then walk into a bookstore, Ye Yunfeng scratched his head.
"Third brother, sister is going to buy you a book again?"
There are already enough books at home, and the collection of books in the Imperial College is even more vast. Why did my sister suddenly——
Ye Jingyan seemed to be thinking about something.
Ye Chutang came out quickly, holding a few books in his hands.
Ye Jingyan reached out to take it, and quickly scanned it, only to find that these books...
"Sister, why did you suddenly think of buying these?"
There were some he had seen before and some he had not seen before, but the categories of selection were very diverse.
My sister never chose books like this before.
Ye Chutang picked up one of the books at random.
"Chunhui Mountain Records?" Ye Jingyan was a little surprised. "Sister, do you suddenly like reading this kind of book?"
Ye Chutang weighed it lightly, his eyebrows slightly raised.
“I think it’s quite interesting.”
The same book can have different thicknesses and weights.
I guess Ye Heng’s book will look better.
…
Finally, when he returned to the familiar gate, Ye Yunfeng was the first to notice something was wrong.
"Hey, where's the gatekeeper?"
Why is it so empty? and……
"Who cleaned the stone lions at the gate for no reason?"
Ye Chutang looked at the newly renovated gate, turned around and smiled:
"Ayan, this is the gift for your fourteenth birthday."
"Welcome home."
