Chapter 64 The truth behind Ye Hesheng's marriage
Gu Ruanci stood up and left. Ye Chi did not stop her and even held down Ye Lingyue who wanted to stand up.
"Soft words, I know you're a noble person now, and you have the support of the Gu family, but you're not their bloodline after all, and they haven't lived in Dizhou City for a long time in recent years. The complex relationships here don't necessarily leave them a place. Dizhou City is a place where one move can affect the entire body. The Gu family has done you a favor, are you willing to drag them into this dispute for your own selfish gain?"
Gu Ruanci stopped and said, "They are willing, I am willing, but you, an outsider, are not willing."
Having said that, he didn't stop there.
"Second Uncle, she is simply unreasonable..."
Ye Lingyue had never seen such an ignorant person who completely disregarded the interests of the family.
Ye Chi still sat there steadily, but his expression became sinister.
"If you express your emotions directly like this, you won't be able to hide your feelings. In the future, you will offend more than just our Ye family. Right now, she is very enthusiastic. There is no need for us to rush in and cause trouble. Let others go first."
Ye Lingyue was stunned and asked, "But what about my aunt..."
"With the Ye family here, your aunt will be fine."
Ye Chi remained calm throughout the entire process, even after hearing such harsh words from Gu Ruanci just now.
"Second uncle, my uncle still wants to save his mother."
"We've never refused to help him. Haven't we done our best to help over the years? Lingyue, if you do what's within your ability, you should also let the other party feel your sincerity. You're already a good person. If you can't do something, don't worry about others. It will only make you more guilty."
Ye Lingyue seemed to understand, then asked, "What about Gu Ruanci's matter? My aunt and uncle have come to the Ye family specifically to ask for our help."
Ye Chi looked at the untouched food and wine on the table and said, "Didn't we intervene? If his biological father couldn't do something, then isn't it normal that I, as Gu Ruanci's biological mother's stepbrother, can't do it? Lingyue, remember, this is not our problem. Don't exhaust yourself."
Ye Lingyue knew that her second uncle was very resourceful and had a more thorough understanding of things than many people.
It’s just that many of the things he said require me to slowly understand.
At this time, the servant came to report what Ye Chenglei encountered on the street.
"Cheng Lei is really anxious after all. He's done with his work now, so let him come over for dinner. It's going to take more than a day or two to deal with Gu Ruanci. Such good food can't be wasted."
After hearing this, Ye Lingyue didn't say anything more.
After returning to the Duke of Shou's Mansion, Gu Ruanci did not hide the fact that he had met Ye Chi.
Gu Congyun and Zhuang Hefeng were very excited after hearing this.
"He still has the nerve to call himself my second uncle. It was all his plan that allowed that bitch Ye Lanxin to enter our house and openly be with that son of a bitch Zhou Zhili."
Zhuang Hefeng became anxious and almost spoke without thinking.
Gu Congyun did not stop him, because he knew that Zhuang Hefeng had more complicated feelings towards the Ye family.
"If it weren't for He Sheng, your father and I wouldn't have gotten married. The court wanted your father to marry Shang Hongmian, the daughter of Jincheng County Lord, who is now Ye Chi's wife. The Ye family wanted to push Ye Lanxin to your father. All of this was planned and pushed by Ye Chi behind the scenes."
"Every time I think of this, I get angry. Ye Chi wanted to use Shang Hongmian to get involved with the royal family, so he pushed a bastard like Ye Lanxin onto your father."
"Luckily, your mother discovered it in time. She knew your father and I were in love, and to prevent the Ye family from causing trouble for us, she not only endured Shang Hongmian's harassment, but also used the dowry your grandmother left her to help them arrange a marriage for the Shang family. She was even willing to marry Zhou Zhili, whom Ye Lanxin had despised and refused to marry... Without your mother, there would be no family. Yu Ting and the others all know all this."
Gu Yuting nodded and said, "That's right. Mother has always stressed over the years that we must treat you well. If it weren't for Aunt Ye, we wouldn't have had the chance to be born."
Gu Ruanci had never heard her mother talk about these in detail.
She knew that Zhuang Hefeng said this to her at this time because he didn't want to alienate her and felt that what she did would affect the Gu family.
"Your father and I have been at the border for many years to gain our current status. If we can't even protect our daughter, it would be a joke."
Zhuang Hefeng finished his words and told Gu Ruanci, "I know you've learned some skills from your master over the years, but your father and I certainly don't want to see you in danger. So if you're unsure about anything, please speak to us."
"That's right. Although I'm old, I still have no problem dealing with those bastards from the Zhou and Ye families."
Gu Congyun also quickly said that they were still worried that Gu Ruanci had a barrier in his heart.
Gu Ruanci understood their anxious mood and said considerately, "I understand, Father and Mother, don't worry, I won't cause more trouble than Yuxuan."
Gu Yuxuan, who was thanking Ye Hesheng for his kindness, was suddenly mentioned and looked confused.
"Sister, how can you be sure?" He seemed unconvinced.
"Even someone like Ye Chengyun can play back and forth with you, so it's natural for him to say that about you."
Gu Yulou nodded seriously, "That's right, but he seems to have lost the music competition a few days ago..."
When Gu Congyun saw his two sons interrupting, the tone of the conversation gradually went off track, but he didn't say anything.
As long as there is harmony among their brothers and sisters, they will naturally feel at ease.
While they were talking, a servant came in and told them that someone had come from the palace.
We just resolved the issue between Concubine Ning and the Third Prince, so why is there something happening in the palace again?
Gu Congyun let someone in with doubts.
The visitor was a eunuch beside the Empress Dowager, and he came to ask Princess Chaoyang to come to the palace to see her tomorrow.
"Why do I want to see you again? Could it be about that troublesome matter with Concubine Ning again?" Zhuang Hefeng was a little anxious. She asked as soon as the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict left.
Gu Congyun also suspected that this was the only thing he had to deal with in the palace recently.
"Sister, I will accompany you to the palace tomorrow. Anyway, I have been in the Imperial State for these years, and the Emperor often takes me to live in the palace."
Gu Yuxuan asked hurriedly, he wanted to protect his sister in his own way.
"No need. The Empress Dowager has no ill will towards me." Gu Ruanci said calmly.
If she guessed correctly, the Queen Mother did this for Lu Enyan.
