Da'an's best son-in-law

The Wei family's stable is not too far away from Wei Yanran and Ye Chen's small attic. After getting dressed, Ye Chen took Lian'er and prepared to go to the stable to prepare a carriage.

"Are you saying that everyone in the Wei family will be there during the counting?" Ye Chen asked Lian'er beside him on the way to the stable.

Lian'er nodded, "That's the kind of uncle you are."

"Actually, it didn't have to be like this. The young lady is the main person in charge this time. She can be responsible for supervision. However, this time she encountered opposition from other houses, especially the second master." Thinking of this, Lian'er said angrily.

"In fact, the young lady didn't want to do this. There were many people and it was inconvenient to count, but she couldn't withstand the pressure from the family, so she had to accept such an arrangement."

Ye Chen's eyes were slightly sharp, "Did Wei Zhongwu bring this up?"

"Yes, that's the second master."

"He did care about these things in the past, but he never got involved in things like counting goods that were not in the limelight. I don't know what he is going to do this time," Lian'er muttered with some dissatisfaction.

"Not only does he have to take people there himself, but he also requires all the elders and stewards in the family to participate. If so, I don't know how many people will have to go."

"It's just to share the worries of the Wei family. If there are any problems, we will try our best to solve them. It's just an inventory. I really don't know what the problem could be."

Listening to Lian'er's words, Ye Chen's expression became more solemn.

The reason why Wei Zhongwu took the initiative to bring people to participate in the count this time was definitely not to "share worries". It was more likely to cause trouble for this count.

Under Ye Chen's escort, the goods arrived at the Wei family safely, and Wei Yanran also told him that the Chen family could not match the Wei family's level this time, so if they wanted to win the competition, , this is the last chance to take action.

There are many people with mixed eyes, and it is also suitable for some people to start secretly and fish in troubled waters.

If someone really rushes out and destroys this batch of goods, no matter what the Wei family does, it will not change the outcome of the silk and satin competition in a few days.

"We're not going to the horse farm, let's go find the rooster," Ye Chen said immediately. Time is very urgent now. This game against Wei Yanran should start soon, and there is no time to waste.

"What's wrong, uncle?" Seeing that Ye Chen was a little anxious, Lian'er hadn't reacted yet.

"I'll explain it on the way, follow me." Ye Chen didn't say anything more, he held Lian'er beside him, and the two of them trotted towards the small courtyard where the rooster was tied.

After returning to the Wei family from the Luliang Mountains last time, Ye Chen originally wanted to send the rooster to the horse farm, but he only stayed there for three days before the guy there took the initiative to find him.

It is true that the rooster was tamed by Ye Chen, but it was only subject to the discipline of Ye Chen. In addition to feeding, if other people wanted to take advantage of it, they would inevitably be turned upside down.

Since there was nothing else he could do, Ye Chen simply placed the rooster in a secluded small courtyard not far from the small attic. The staff from the horse farm would be responsible for feeding and cleaning it every day.

Pushing open the somewhat old courtyard door, Ye Chen asked Lian'er to wait at the door while he went to get the rooster out.

After not seeing each other for a few days, the rooster was no longer separated from Ye Chen. When he saw Ye Chen's arrival, he screamed twice in excitement and nuzzled Ye Chen affectionately with his nose.

"Okay, okay" Ye Chen smiled and touched the rooster, "I have to go all out for a while, we don't have much time to waste."

"Lian'er, come up!"

Not long after, Lian'er, who was waiting outside the entrance of Wei Mansion, saw Ye Chen riding over on horseback.

"Uncle, I..."

As maids, they usually ride in a carriage with Wei Yanran when they travel, otherwise they go on foot, and they really have no experience in riding horses.

Looking at the majestic and muscular figure of the rooster, Lian'er shrank back in fear.

In the entire Wei family, the "notoriety" of roosters is quite loud. Many experienced masters have been turned off by this one. It's no wonder that Lian'er doesn't dare to get on the horse.

"Ah, uncle!"

Seeing the doubts in Lian'er's heart, Ye Chen simply turned over and dismounted. After patting the rooster's back, he directly pulled Lian'er over. Amidst the former's exclamations, he picked up Lian'er and put him on the horse. He stepped on the stirrups again and sat behind Lian'er.

Lian'er's body was petite, so it didn't take much effort to pick her up, and the rooster seemed quite cooperative. He stood quietly in place during the whole process, and did not move because of the stranger on his back. son.

"You see, the rooster likes you quite a lot. If you had stepped forward, he might have taken it down long ago." Ye Chen joked with a smile as he stretched out his hand from behind Lian'er and held the reins.

Lian'er didn't speak, but pinched the corners of her clothes with her hands uneasily, her cheeks turning red from shyness.

In this posture, Lian'er's petite figure was almost completely shrouded by Ye Chen behind her, and the two figures were closely touching each other.

Under such close contact, not only Lian'er, but also Ye Chen's heart couldn't help but shake.

Lian'er looked petite, but she was already quite well developed. Feeling the wonderful touch coming from the front, Ye Chen could only take a deep breath to keep himself calm.

Even if he has this leisurely elegance, it is not easy now. Even if he believes that Wei Yanran can see the conspiracy behind this matter, he will definitely be wary.

But the enemy is in the open and we are in the dark, so we have to be careful and cautious.

"Don't worry, don't be afraid, I'm protecting you from behind." Feeling the tension of the girl in his arms, Ye Chen said softly.

"Yeah" Lian'er nodded obediently.

"drive!"

With Ye Chen's instruction, Rooster immediately gathered all his strength and started galloping on the street in the direction of Liyue Village.

The speed of the rooster was much faster than that of ordinary horses. Ye Chen hurried on with all his strength. It shouldn't take too long to reach Liyue Village.

"I hope it's not too late when I arrive," Ye Chen murmured with a solemn expression.

He actually hopes that Wei Yanran can solve this last crisis, but the real enemy has not yet shown his true face.

Wei Zhongwu's various performances and actions are more like the rebel in the Wei family. If the handle can be grasped this time, this idea will be completely confirmed.

But there is always a trace of uneasiness and worry in Ye Chen's heart, as if things are not that simple, as if there is a big invisible hand driving Wei Zhongwu's actions behind the scenes without showing any flaws.
