Home, but he is long gone.
"From now on, my home will be your home." Ye Xingchen said, then took the child's hand and left.
By the time Lao He remembered asking for help, Ye Xingchen and the child were long gone.
Ye Xingchen used the transfer symbol to return to the Ye family directly: "Did you see these two words, Ye Mansion, this is my home, and it will be your home in the future."
The child stared straight at the words "Ye Mansion" without answering or nodding.
"Let's go, I'll take you in." Ye Xingchen took his hand and walked in.
When the doorman saw the young lady coming back, he greeted her warmly: "Young lady."
"Yeah." Ye Xingchen took the child and went straight to his yard.
Qingluo and the others saw the young lady bringing back a child and were very curious: "Miss, who is he?"
"Qingluo, clean up a room, have someone prepare hot water so he can give him a bath, and also have someone send some food over." Ye Xingchen ordered.
"Yes." Qingluo went to do it immediately.
"Miss, let me take care of him." Tang Yu walked over and said.
The child seemed very scared and subconsciously shrank behind Ye Xingchen. As a result, he touched his arm and frowned in pain.
Tang Yu was confused: "Miss, why is he afraid of me? Do I look so fierce?"
Ye Xingchen saw it and explained, "No, he has been bullied and beaten since he was a child, so he is afraid of strangers. Let me take him first."
Tang Yu looked sympathetic: "It turns out you are a poor little brother. My name is Tang Yu. No one dares to bully you after you come here."
The child didn't answer, but just looked at her coldly.
Ye Xingchen brought him into the house, reached out and lifted up his sleeves, and looking at the purple and red swollen scars on the child's arms, he felt even more sympathy and distressed.
"Damn old woman, she actually treated a child so harshly. It's so hateful. She should let her tongue rot." Ye Xingchen said angrily and immediately took out several talismans.
Hemostatic talismans, anti-inflammatory talismans, scar removal talismans, pain-relieving talismans - these were all drawn for fun, and she never expected to actually use them.
The child, who was originally in great pain, stared with wide eyes as he watched the talismans turn into ashes, and then rays of light flew towards his body and finally disappeared. He suddenly felt no pain anymore.
He looked at Ye Xingchen in surprise, as if asking what was going on.
"These are all talismans I created. I'll teach you when you want to learn them. By the way, what's your name?" Ye Xingchen looked over.
The child shook his head. His mother died of complications during childbirth when he was just born, and his father hated him so much that he didn't even give him a name.
"Since you don't have one, then I'll give you a new one. How about Xiao An? Live peacefully and safely. From now on you will be called Ye Xiao An." Ye Xingchen suggested.
The child was extremely shocked. Ye Xiaoan, she actually asked him to have sex with her. Now he would have a surname and a name. That was great.
He nodded slightly.
"Miss, the hot water is ready." Qingluo said.
Ye Xiaoan was a little nervous and didn't know what to do.
"From now on, you are a member of the Ye family and represent the reputation of the Ye family. Naturally, you must be clean. Come on, I'll take you there." Ye Xingchen comforted.
Ye Xiaoan was deeply moved. His sister actually said that he represented the Ye family. This was such a luxury and rare thing for him who had no home.
Ye Xiaoan followed her out.
Ajiu, who was lying on the wall, went over to check some things, and when he came back, he saw Miss Ye giving a little ghost a bath, and that little ghost turned out to be a boy.
This was too much. Ajiu immediately went back to report to the Regent.
"My Lord Regent, something bad has happened. Miss Ye is bathing a child!"
Cang Boyi's face turned cold: "Does the Ye Mansion have no servants? Does she need to do it herself?"
He just thought that this was a small matter and Ye Xingchen didn't need to do it himself.
"Isn't it normal to take a bath? Why are you making such a fuss?" Su Ruoan curled her lips.
Ajiu looked depressed: "But the child is a boy."
The teacup in Cang Boyi's hand made a click and was crushed by him: "Who is it?"
"I haven't found out yet. He looks about five or six years old. He is very thin and has a sallow complexion. Only strips of pork ribs are left on his body. It's obvious that he has been malnourished for a long time ." Ajiu replied.
So Feng Yunmu's imagination started to run wild: "Could it be Miss Ye's illegitimate child, or her child husband?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a dangerous aura attacked him in the air. Feng Yunmu didn't have time to dodge before he was cut on the forehead by half a teacup thrown by the Regent.
"Ah, it hurts so much. Regent, you actually hit me with a cup. That's too cruel." Feng Yunmu wailed, covering his forehead.
"Who told you to talk so much nonsense?" Cang Boyi snorted coldly.
"Am I just guessing? Doesn't the Regent want to know?" Feng Yunmu asked back.
"I am not as outrageous as you." Cang Boyi glared angrily.
"How about I go to Ye Mansion and ask?" Su Ruoan asked tentatively.
"No need. Xingchen hates distrust the most. I believe in her." Cang Boyi's voice was solemn and left no room for doubt.
"Since the Regent trusts Miss Ye so much, why am I still talking nonsense here? My handsome forehead is really pitiful." Feng Yunmu said, and hurried back to the next yard to apply medicine to himself.
"Go back and protect Xingchen secretly." Cang Boyi ordered.
"Yes." Ajiu left.
When he returned to the wall of Ye Mansion, it was already dark.
Ye Xingchen asked the servants to bring in food, and personally picked up some food for Ye Xiaoan: "Eat something quickly, you are too thin, your body has no nutrition at all, you need to replenish yourself."
Ye Xiaoan had never seen so many delicious foods. All he ate at the farm were leftovers and rotten vegetables. Sometimes, those people didn't even give him anything to eat. Once, they didn't give Ye Xiaoan any food for three days, and he almost starved to death.
At this moment, he looked at the table full of chicken, duck, fish, meat, shrimp, etc., and his eyes became red.
"Why don't you eat? Eat it while it's hot. From now on, you can have hearty meals every day and you will never be hungry again." Ye Xingchen said with concern.
Ye Xiaoan couldn't hold back any longer, tears welled up in her eyes, then she reached out tremblingly, picked up the food in the bowl and stuffed it into her mouth.
Qingluo, Tang Yu and others at the door felt extremely sympathetic when they saw Ye Xiaoan stuffing the food into his mouth frantically with his hands and wolfing it down.
How hungry must they be to eat with their hands? However, they didn't say anything and retreated quietly, not daring to disturb the young lady and the child.
Ye Xiaoan had never eaten such delicious food before. He ate a lot with hearty mouthfuls.
Ye Xingchen did not blame him, but helped him pick up vegetables and meat with great patience.
Ye Xiaoan had almost finished eating when he remembered that he had eaten with his hands. He looked at Ye Xingchen with embarrassment.
"It's okay, it doesn't matter if you use chopsticks or your hands. Eat your fill first, and you can learn these things slowly in the future." Ye Xingchen comforted.
Ye Xiaoan looked at her for a long time before asking, "Why are you so nice to me?"
