Ye Maosheng didn't know what Ye Sizhu heard outside that made him so suspicious of him.
He had no choice but to hold back the blood in his heart and reason with Ye Sizhu: "Fourth brother, if you want to marry me, I won't stop you, but that Miss Hu will beat you to death at every turn. Are you really not afraid of marrying her back? How will she feel about it one day?"
No, will I kill you on the bed with a pair of scissors?"
Ye Sizhu shuddered: "...Nonsense, how could Miss Qianjin do such a thing?! You must be lying to me, you just don't want me to be well..."
"Fourth brother, if you like Miss Qianjin, let's find another one, but she can't do it. You are my fourth brother. I'm afraid that she will hurt you. If she wants to attack you, I won't be here. When I know the news
It's too late... What do you want me to do? Fourth brother watched me grow up, how could I watch you marry such a terrible woman? "
Ye Sizhu looked suspicious: "Really?"
"real!"
"Then I won't marry her, and you can find me a similar one. If it's not a rich lady, you're lying to me."
Ye Maosheng: "..."
With his fourth brother's muddy legs, how could a serious young lady like him be attracted to him?
But Ye Maosheng couldn't say this to his fourth brother, so he could only hold back his blood and agree.
As for when to marry...
hehe!
Then just say those people are "not worthy" of his fourth brother.
If a person does not act for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth.
Ye Maosheng has five brothers, and the only girl is his third sister.
Probably his third sister was the only one among his brothers and sisters who didn't want to hold him back. Unfortunately, in order to collect dowry gifts for his two brothers, his third sister was directly "sold" to an old widower.
This was the result that Ye Maosheng fought for at the time, otherwise, his third sister would have been sold to a domestic violence man or a gambler.
The old widower was a little poorer and had a bad temper, but at least he couldn't hit anyone.
Unfortunately, the old widower left behind two sons from his ex-wife, and his third sister only gave birth to a daughter after many years of living in the house, so life was a bit difficult.
However, now that Ye Maosheng has passed the examination, the old widower's attitude towards his sister has immediately changed. Even the two stepsons have become much better towards his sister.
Ye Maosheng knew that his third sister was weak-tempered and couldn't keep things, so he didn't give his third sister anything. He only picked up some girls' things from the gifts sent by Miss Yao Qi, and specially told the old widower and the two step-mothers to do so.
The nephew helped his third sister keep an eye on it.
If he catches it, he will be rewarded later.
In order to sell the three of them, Ye Maosheng had to give them something.
Apart from "suppressing" the old widower and his son, Ye Maosheng has no other options at present, because he knows that he cannot stay here forever.
As the Chinese New Year approaches, he will take the exam in Beijing.
If he passes the exam, he will be sent to serve as an official.
According to the laws of the Yan Dynasty, grassroots officials cannot return to their place of origin. In other words, once he goes to work as an official in another place, he will have to stay for at least three or four years.
Even if he takes his father, mother, brother and sister-in-law with him, he can't bring his married sister and brother-in-law's family with him, right?
Moreover, if he wanted to bring so many people with him, he needed to consult the Yao family for their opinions.
To be precise, it's Miss Yao Qi.
"Aqiu——"
Miss Yao Qi sneezed, rubbed her nose, and looked confused: "Who is thinking of me?"
"Could it be...that she's my aunt?"
Thinking of Aunt Zhang, Miss Yao Qi felt bad because she received a letter saying that Aunt Zhang was sick.
"well……"
Miss Yao Qi sighed.
So what if I receive the letter?
It would be good if the old lady gave them the news that they could get their aunt. Don't even think about visiting.
After hearing so many fights between wives and concubines, Gu Qingling finally made an old woman next to Miss Yao Qi relax and told Miss Yao Qi in a vague way that the real reason why Aunt Zhang was sent away was poisoning.
An old aunt who would poison the whole house and endanger their lives was not directly executed, but she was just "sent away" which was pretty good.
When Miss Yao Qi heard the news, she almost trembled all over.
"impossible!"
"How could my aunt do such a thing?!"
"Who sent you here? Why did she slander my aunt?"
…
Miss Yao Qi stared at the inconspicuous old woman with a stern expression.
However, the old woman opposite lowered her head slightly and looked honest: "I didn't lie. The old earl's people personally investigated and caught one. And this is just on the surface. The real situation is even worse than this."
serious……"
Isn't it serious to poison all the masters in the courtyard? If she were the old lady, she would probably kill her aunt directly. Miss Yao Qi scorned the old lady's remarks.
Suddenly, Miss Yao Qi caught a flaw: "You just said it was the old earl's people who investigated? Didn't the old earl pass away? Why did he become the old earl's person again?"
"Seventh Miss can ask if there is a slave named Xiao beside the uncle. This person is the old count's secret chess."
The word "dark chess" is enough to explain everything.
Miss Yao Qi still has an impression of how old Mrs. Yao was deprived of the housekeeper's rights by the old earl and raised in honor.
She didn't know what Mrs. Yao did to make the old count do this, but now that the old count's secret plan had reached Uncle Yao, she didn't stop Mrs. Yao from sending away the two remaining old aunts in the house.
It is enough to show that the old lady was right about sending away the two old aunts.
The old lady was right, and the person who was wrong was Aunt Zhang.
In other words, her aunt probably did what the old woman said...
Poisoned?
Or, something more serious than poisoning.
So, what could be more serious than poisoning?
Miss Yao Qi couldn't figure it out, but she couldn't help but feel the crisis. She seemed to understand why the old lady had dealt with the two old aunts, but not her and the eighth sister.
I'm afraid that An Qi is watching over there, and since she and Bamei have made no mistakes and have no obvious reasons, Old Mrs. Yao won't be able to take action against them.
But if she is as "stupid" as Yao Liuye, then she may be one of the people sent away.
Miss Yao Qi, who had been stupid for so long, did not waste Gu Qingling's arrangement for so long, and finally became smart for once.
If Miss Yao Ba knows, she won't be scared to death.
Wait, doesn’t her seventh sister have no brains and only knows how to be “impulsive”? She actually knows how to use her brains?!
As someone who gains immediate benefits, Miss Yao Qi naturally trusts Aunt Zhang more, while Miss Yao Ba, as someone who is ignored or even "sacrificed", can actually see some things more clearly.
For example, Aunt Zhang is not as kind as her seventh sister thinks.
Therefore, even without Gu Qingling's arrangement, Miss Yao Ba actually knew to some extent that the reason why Aunt Zhang was "sent away" was not only because of her defeat, but also because of what she had done to offend her.
The matter of the old lady.
Not only Aunt Zhang did it, but also Aunt Chen did it.
Just look at Yao Sanye. The couple were obviously insiders, but they did not show any dissatisfaction with the old lady's decision. Instead, they felt "relieved", as if the "scourge" had finally been sent away.
