Chapter 19 Ye Jingchuan's hand is broken
Ye Chutang noticed Ye Anling's ugly expression and immediately acted like a naive person.
"Miss Ye Er, did I buy too much?"
Without waiting for Ye Anling to answer, she continued, "You said before that you would give me all your personal money. It was just a polite remark, right?"
"I'm sorry, I took it seriously."
After saying that, she called the shopkeeper, "Don't move it, I don't want it anymore."
Ye Anling was roasted over the fire by Ye Chutang.
Even if she was unwilling, she couldn't say no to the money.
"Eldest sister, I keep my word. If you like them, take them all. At most I can pawn some of the jewelry."
When most people hear this, they will definitely buy less.
But Ye Chutang went out shopping just to spend Ye Anling's money, so naturally he wouldn't be polite to her.
"Okay, shopkeeper, let's move everything to the Shangshu Mansion's carriage."
Ye An's body shook with aura.
Doctor Xu was applying medicine to her again when he accidentally poked her wound.
She grimaced in pain, tears welling up in her eyes.
Soon, her wound was rebandaged.
The shopkeeper showed the account book to Ye Anling.
"Miss Ye Er, the total is 3,150 taels. If you bought more, I will give you 3,000 taels."
Ye Anling's eyes went dark when he heard this, and he gritted his teeth and replied, "Okay, the shopkeeper can send someone to the Shangshu Mansion to get the money later."
Doctor Xu packed up the medicine box and slung it over his shoulder.
"Miss Ye Er, the consultation fee and medicine fee is two taels of silver."
Ye Anling and Qiu Lu had no money left.
She had no choice but to ask Ye Chutang, "Eldest sister, I give you all the banknotes I brought out today."
The implication was that Ye Chutang should help her pay for the medical bills.
As a result, Ye Chutang returned all the banknotes and change to Ye Anling.
"I kept it very well, and it cost me nothing."
It sounded as if Ye Anling treated her as a maid who was in charge of money.
Ye Anling gritted his teeth and gave two taels of silver to Doctor Xu.
Then he said to Ye Chutang, "Eldest sister, I never thought of taking back the silver I gave you. I will return the two taels I just used to you later when I get home."
"Okay, it's getting late, let's go back."
Ye Chutang was finally going back home, and Ye Anling breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as he reached the door, Ye Chutang suddenly stopped.
When Ye Anling's alarm bells were ringing, she turned to the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, I don't want to embroider handkerchiefs for the wages anymore."
The shopkeeper was stunned when he saw her go back on her word.
"Okay, Miss Ye has the final say."
She couldn't force anyone to do anything.
Ye Anling thought that Ye Chutang had figured it out and recognized her identity as the Shangshu's legitimate daughter.
As a result, Ye Chutang's next words almost made her spit out blood.
"My mother left me a dowry worth a fortune. Even if the Shangshu Mansion is poor, it won't be me."
Hearing this, many people recalled the glory when Tang Wanning married Ye Jingchuan.
"I heard that the Tang family, the richest family in Jiangnan, dotes on their youngest daughter and gave her all the best things in the house."
"One hundred and twenty-eight loads of dowry, which filled an entire ship, is half of the Tang family's wealth!"
"Miss Ye had a lot of money, but she was sent to the countryside to eat coarse food. It's sad to think about it."
Although the owner of the embroidery workshop did not witness the excitement of the Ten Miles of Red Wedding, she often heard people talk about it in the palace.
The dowry is comparable to the national treasury, and no one would not envy it.
She smiled and said, "Miss Ye, there is really no need for you to make money. The dowry your mother left for you is more than you can spend even if you spend it lavishly for your whole life."
"If no one cares about the dowry, that's true."
After saying that, she left the embroidery workshop.
Ye Anling followed him away in a daze.
The confidence she had in becoming the Crown Princess and the Queen was the sky-high dowry left by Tang Wanning.
Now that the dowry issue has been exposed by Ye Chutang, can she still get what she wants?
After the two left, people in the embroidery workshop began to talk about it.
"Ms. Ye may look silly, but she is not a good person."
"As expected of a merchant's daughter, even though she grew up in the countryside, she is very scheming."
"Indeed, she was clearly at a disadvantage, but she easily turned the situation around."
"With the dowry left by her mother, the matchmaker will probably trample down the doorstep of the Shangshu Mansion."
"There's something exciting to watch at the Shangshu Mansion!"
***
When Ye Chutang and Ye Anling returned to the Shangshu Mansion.
Ye Chutang outshines Princess Anping.
Eunuch De wants to marry Ye Anling.
Ye Chutang makes a living by embroidering handkerchiefs.
Ye Jingchuan was so poor that he only had five thousand taels.
Ye Tang left a sky-high dowry for her only daughter.
Five explosive news have spread throughout the capital.
Eunuch De in the palace learned that Ye Jingchuan was dissatisfied with his marriage to Ye Anling and wanted to marry his eldest daughter, who was more beautiful, instead.
He loved beauties very much, and if the Queen had not stepped in, he would not have even looked down on Ye Anling.
It would naturally be better if he could find a wife who is more to his liking as his partner.
But he hated being plotted against, and he also had to give an explanation to the Queen.
So, whether it is Ye Anling who wants to be the Crown Princess, or Ye Chutang who has a sky-high dowry, he wants them both!
He doesn't care what others say.
"I am looking forward to the Shangshu Mansion's homecoming banquet in three days."
The shrill duck voice with a laugh made people shudder.
"Xiao Zhuzi, go ask about the eldest daughter of the Ye family. Our family wants her portrait."
He wanted to see if Ye Chutang was really as beautiful as the rumors said.
"Yes, Grand Supervisor."
***
At this time, in the Shangshu Mansion.
Ye Jingchuan sat in the main seat in the main hall of the outer courtyard, looking at Ye Chutang with such anger that veins popped out on his forehead.
He slapped the table, "Evil girl, kneel down!"
Ye Chutang did not kneel, but asked knowingly, "Why is Lord Ye so angry?"
"What have you done that you don't know?"
"Then may I ask Lord Ye, which of my words are fabricated?"
Ye Jingchuan was so angry that he had a heart attack.
"Evil girl, you have brought shame to the Shangshu Mansion, and you still dare to say that you have done nothing wrong!"
Ye Chutang curled his lips mockingly, "Master Ye, put yourself in my shoes, did I really do anything wrong?"
Ye Jingchuan naturally would not empathize with Ye Chutang.
He only feels sorry for his precious daughter Ye Anling!
"An Ling was badly injured because of you, and you still threw dirty water on her. Has your conscience been eaten by a dog?"
Ye Chutang sneered, "She is not protecting me, but my face that can charm Eunuch De."
At this moment, Eunuch De already knew that Ye Jingchuan wanted her to marry in his place!
I wonder if this eunuch will make things difficult for my scumbag father?
Seeing that she dared to mention Eunuch De, Ye Jingchuan became even angrier.
He stood up, walked quickly to Ye Chutang, and raised his hand to slap her in the face.
“Bang!”
Ye Chutang high-fived Ye Jingchuan again.
She used all her strength.
With a "click" sound, Ye Jingchuan's hand broke.
"ah!"
The screams like a pig being slaughtered almost blew the roof off.
The red and swollen palm immediately turned into a dark purple color due to congestion.
He stared at the drooping severed hand in disbelief, rolling his eyes in pain.
When Butler Chen and the guards heard Ye Jingchuan's screams, they immediately rushed into the main hall.
There were only Ye Jingchuan and Ye Chutang in the main hall.
One was screaming while holding his severed hand, while the other watched the show indifferently.
Butler Chen looked at Ye Jingchuan with a broken hand and asked in shock, "Master, what happened?"
After saying this, he immediately arranged for the guards to go and ask the court doctor to come over.
Ye Jingchuan endured the pain, gasping continuously, and looked at Ye Chutang with murderous eyes.
He ordered the guards, "Catch this evil girl and give her twenty strokes of the cane!"
