Chapter 136: Blessings and Disasters (Part 1)
Ye Chutang said, "The incident happened suddenly back then, and I fled with Ah Yan, Ah Feng, and Xiao Wu. I didn't have time to take care of the aftermath for my parents and my brother. Now that I'm back, I should fulfill my duty as a daughter of the Ye family."
She knelt down and saluted towards Ye Heng, her face was gentle but her tone was firm and resolute.
"Uncle, I am grateful for your kindness. I came here to discuss this matter with you. I hope you will help me."
Ye Heng was caught off guard.
He thought of countless possibilities, but he never expected that Ye Chutang came for this matter!
"You, you——" Ye Heng's throat was dry, and he couldn't think of any response for a moment. He frowned, "Such a big thing must be handled with caution. How could you just do it on a whim?"
After that incident, as Ye Zheng's younger brother, he took the responsibility of handling all the aftermath.
Until now, the tablet is still erected in his name.
Who would have thought that Ye Chutang was still thinking about this matter after returning to Beijing for so long!
Ye Chutang shook his head: "Uncle, you misunderstood. This is not an impulsive idea of mine. Before, when we were away, Uncle didn't know, so it was fine. But now that we have returned home, how can we trouble Uncle again? If others knew that my siblings and I are still alive, but we don't even worship our parents' tablets ourselves, it would be too unreasonable. What do you think?"
Ye Heng choked.
In theory, there was nothing wrong with Ye Chutang's words, but in this way, even if they officially announced to the public that Ye Chutang and the others were back.
If he moves the grave and erects a new tombstone, then everything he did before will be erased.
By then everyone will know that the Ye family is still ruled by Ye Chutang and his sister!
Of course Ye Heng was extremely unwilling to do this.
"What you said makes sense, but this is not a trivial matter after all. How can we make such a rash decision? Besides, it has been so long since the incident happened. If we continue to make such a fuss, I am afraid it will be..."
He made all kinds of excuses and refused to agree in both his words and deeds.
Ye Chutang had expected this reaction and was not surprised. He just smiled and interrupted him: "I understand your concerns, but this is the duty of children, there is no such thing as hard work. Also, don't worry, uncle, we will do these things ourselves and won't bother you. After all, you are also overwhelmed now, how can you spare the time and energy to take care of other things?"
It was like a slap in the face, and Ye Heng was instantly furious!
"you--"
Ye Chutang's words were clearly mocking them!
She was afraid that the fire wasn't big enough!
Ye Shixian's face also changed, and she laughed in anger: "How interesting. If it weren't for my father, your parents and brother would have been left to die in the wilderness! Do you think you can do whatever you want now? I think you are just trying to stir up trouble!"
Ye Chutang's expression slightly restrained, and he just glanced at her. Ye Shixian's heart skipped a beat and she was suddenly speechless.
That look was dark and calm, without any ripples of emotion, yet it seemed to carry a bone-chilling chill that was frightening.
Ye Shixian felt a chill all over her body, and the rest of the words were stuck there, unable to be uttered.
But it was only for a moment, and Ye Chutang withdrew his gaze, as if the coldness at that moment was just an illusion.
She said calmly, "Second uncle is very busy, so I won't bother you any more. I'll ask someone to calculate a suitable date and resettle my parents and brother. Second uncle, don't worry, I'll take care of it."
After saying that, Ye Chutang nodded slightly, and without waiting for Ye Heng to answer, he turned and left.
Ye Heng opened his mouth and wanted to call her, but when he remembered the indifferent and calm tone she used when she left, he felt inexplicably blocked in his heart.
Ye Chutang clearly came here today just to inform him! Whether he agrees or not, she will do it without any mistakes!
But now she has a backer, so Ye Heng doesn't dare to offend her easily.
If he offends the princess again, then he——
"Dad! You're just going to let her go like that!?" Ye Shixian was filled with rage.
Ye Heng was also annoyed: "What else? Why do you think she dares to be so arrogant?"
Ye Shixian clenched her teeth, feeling dissatisfied.
"Just because you saved the princess' life, you think you're such a big shot!"
Every time she thought of bringing Ye Chutang to the Princess's Residence to attend the Chaohua Banquet, she felt regretful.
Ye Heng glanced at the mess in the yard and forced himself to suppress the anger in his heart.
"Forget it! This matter cannot be resolved in a day or two, so just ignore her for now. Let her be arrogant for a few more days. When the turmoil in the Han family subsides and Han Tong takes the position of Minister of Guanglu Temple firmly, we will see what she can do!"
Ye Heng snorted coldly: "Zhao Hanguang has made such a big mistake, he can't escape the death penalty! The most suitable person for this position is Han Tong! Ye Chutang has offended the Han family, she will not have a good time in the future!"
Han Yao is no match for others, but his father is a vengeful person.
By then, he will have plenty of ways to deal with Ye Chutang!
…
Ye Chutang took Xiaowu out of the door.
Xiaowu looked up at her.
——What they said just now were so unpleasant. They must have made my sister unhappy again.
Noticing her gaze, Ye Chutang lowered his head slightly, but curled the corners of his lips.
"It's still early, do you want to go out for a walk?"
Xiaowu was stunned and nodded vigorously.
——It seems that my sister is in a really bad mood, so let’s go out for a walk together to relax!
Half an hour later, on the second floor of a teahouse, Xiao Wu looked at the young girl who came in through the curtain with a confused look on his face.
She looks to be in her teens and seems to be a maid in some family.
Who is this...? She has never seen this person before!
"Doctor Ye."
The woman bowed respectfully to Ye Chutang, looking apologetic.
"Before leaving, our girl was not feeling well. I left a little late and kept you waiting."
Ye Chutang shook his head and didn't mind: "She had a miscarriage not long ago, and now she needs to stay in bed and rest, it's okay."
As she spoke, she handed over the wrapped medicine on the table.
"Oh, this is the medicine she'll need for the next three days. Take it home and boil it for her to take."
The little maid showed gratitude: "Thank you, Doctor Ye!"
Ever since she saw Ye Chutang rescue Su Pei'er with her own eyes, she has already determined that Ye Chutang is the best doctor in the world!
Ye Chutang poured a cup of tea and smiled, "You're welcome. Go back early today and take good care of your daughter."
The woman left with many thanks.
Xiaowu held his chin with his hand, looking puzzled, but seeing that his sister didn't want to explain in detail, he didn't ask any more questions.
——Anyway, my sister always has her reasons for doing things!
Xiaowu ate a snack.
Just then, there was a sudden noise from the street downstairs.
Xiaowu looked outside curiously, and saw a group of soldiers galloping past.
Ye Chutang glanced at it casually and took a sip of tea.
…
Bang--!
The Han family's door was kicked open! The leader shouted:
"Where is Han Tong!?"
