Da'an's best son-in-law
Chapter 37
Ye Chen came out of the banquet hall and Lian'er was waiting for him under the steps.
Seeing Ye Chen's figure, before Ye Chen reached out to say hello, Lian'er turned her head away and refused to make any eye contact with Ye Chen as if she was angry.
This kind of behavior made Ye Chen feel a little funny. This girl was still worried about what happened between herself and Hu Qiunan just now.
Walking down the steps, he patted Lian'er's shoulder gently. Seeing that Lian'er still had no reaction, Ye Chen explained helplessly: "You saw what happened just now, I was passive."
To say he is passive is a bit exaggerated. He was almost being led by that witch Hu Qiunan just now.
Lian'er turned around angrily, staring at Ye Chen with her almond-shaped eyes and said angrily
"Why are you so passive? I see you are enjoying it a lot, uncle. The lady is still next to you. Why don't you know how to avoid suspicion?"
Seeing Ye Chen's aggrieved look on his face without making any excuses, Lian'er's already anxious mood became even more anxious...
After endlessly accusing Ye Chen of how his "indiscretion" just now was against the rules, he started muttering about Hu Qiunan's faults with that witch.
"Who is that Hu Qiunan? Why are people in the Wei family so afraid of him?"
Lian'er's eloquent criticism was interrupted by Ye Chen. She glanced at Ye Chen dissatisfied and said, "Why, my uncle is interested in Hu Qiunan. I tell you that she is your aunt, so don't think wrongly."
Ye Chen couldn't laugh or cry because of his righteous words. Where did this girl go? He quickly explained: "What are you talking about, Lian'er? I'm just curious about everyone's reaction. How can I have such thoughts?"
Lian'er stared at Ye Chen suspiciously for a long time. Seeing that the former's eyes were clear and he really had no other thoughts, she nodded with satisfaction and told Ye Chen about Hu Qiunan's deeds.
"Before Miss, Hu Qiunan was also the proud daughter of Jizhou City. She was the first woman to win the Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival at that time, and she became famous."
A sigh appeared on Lian'er's face, and she said again
"Mr. Song Taiyan even made an exception and accepted her as his disciple."
Hearing this, Ye Chen couldn't help but feel a hint of shock in his eyes.
Song Taiyan? Is he the first cheap master he came to the Wei family to worship? Even for a woman as famous as Wei Yanran, Song Taiyan refused to accept a disciple, but he was interested in Hu Qiunan? From this point of view, it is enough to see how wonderful the former was back then.
"How could such a woman end up marrying into the Wei family?"
Hu Qiunan was so outstanding that he ended up becoming the wife of that old bastard Wei Zhongwu? As far as he knew, Hu Qiunan was only in his twenties, and Wei Zhongwu was almost fifty...
Lian'er also nodded in agreement. Such a result was unexpected for everyone.
"I heard that something happened to the Hu family back then. The head of the family at that time, Hu Qiunan's father, died suddenly and mysteriously. The Hu family was instantly torn apart. Many rival families started to add insult to injury, and the internal fighting was very fierce."
"In the end, it was the Wei family who took action to calm down the civil strife in the Hu family, and step by step support the Hu family from a little-known family to its current prosperity. After that incident, Hu Qiunan married into the Wei family."
So that's it. Ye Chen nodded clearly. In this way, it was explained why the relationship between Wei Zhongwu and Hu Qiunan was so delicate. There was no emotion at all between the two except for interests.
But leaving such a woman in the Wei family is a time bomb for the Wei family. Would such a smart woman really be willing to live her life peacefully in the Wei family?
Forget it, it has nothing to do with me.
Ye Chen wished that Hu Qiunan and that old bastard Wei Zhongwu would fight as hard as possible, so as to avoid the former always causing trouble for him overtly or covertly.
The night is getting darker and it is already midnight.
The figures of the two people passed through the complex courtyard of the Wei family. Just as they passed a courtyard, a black shadow suddenly flashed past the two of them beside a rockery.
Ye Chen quickly covered Lian'er's mouth with quick eyes and hands to prevent her from screaming and alerting others.
Turning his head and catching a glimpse of the fear in Lian'er's eyes, Ye Chen made a silent gesture towards her, "Don't be afraid, follow me slowly and don't make any sound."
The fear in Lian'er's eyes weakened a bit. Looking at the former nodding, Ye Chen released his hand covering Lian'er, pulled the former and walked quietly towards the rockery.
If he remembered correctly, the Wei family had always had a curfew. Except for the watchmen and patrolling servants, no one would show up sneakily here.
The two figures slowly approached the rockery, and the whispers coming from the other side became clearer and clearer. Ye Chen put his ear against the rockery and finally heard it clearly.
"Has the matter of that batch of Lingluo yarn been settled?"
Ye Chen frowned. How could this voice be so familiar?
"Don't worry, our boss will take action in person, nothing will happen." Another strange voice came.
"Okay, tell Mo Feng that after the matter is completed, his benefits will be indispensable. By the way, the Wei family has noticed something recently. You should not come again for the time being."
"Yes, sir"
After the spying was completed, two figures emerged from behind the rockery. Seeing that the situation was not good, Ye Chen quickly pulled Lian'er's waist and hid behind the boulder beside him, so that he was not noticed by their eyes.
"Be careful when you go out, don't be seen by the servants of the Wei family." After warning, a black shadow climbed straight over the wall of the courtyard. With such skill, it was obvious that he was not an ordinary person.
Another black figure looked around with a guilty conscience, and when he saw that there was no trouble, he flicked his sleeves and robe and walked out of the courtyard.
Ye Chen stared closely at the two people leaving, but the moonlight today was very dim, and due to the angle, he could only see an outline.
Ling Luo Sha? Ye Chen remembered that Wei Yanran said when he first went to the silk and satin shop that it was an entry prepared by the Wei family. The words "big boss" were also mentioned in the conversation between the two people.
Mo Feng? Could it be a gangster?
"Uncle, can you let go?"
Lian'er's timid voice came, and Ye Chen realized that he had been too focused on eavesdropping and had been holding Lian'er's hand tightly and forgot to let go.
Ye Chen quickly let go of Lian'er's hand and smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I was eavesdropping too seriously just now."
After giving Ye Chen an angry look, Lian'er's eyes showed no trace of anger, but a hint of shyness. The warmth from Ye Chen's palm just now made her heart beat faster.
"Uncle, what should we do now?" After regaining his composure, Lian'er asked Ye Chen
"Go back to the attic first and tell your lady."
Although I don't know the specific purpose of the two people, in any case, having a sneaky interview at this time in this place is not a good thing for the Wei family.
