Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother
Chapter 39 A Stone Fell
I don't know why I often feel my legs getting weak recently, but after resting for a while I feel back to normal. I went to see a doctor, but the doctor couldn't diagnose what the condition was. He just told me to exercise more so that if my legs were stronger I wouldn't suffer from this strange disease.
Ye Chongde pounded his leg and breathed a sigh of relief only after it was completely healed.
After a while, the maid brought in tea and whispered a few more words in Ye Chongde's ear while pouring the tea, "The eldest lady stole the show at the party in the Marquis' Mansion. The Seventh Prince gave the young lady a personal jade pendant!"
"Yunzi?"
Ye Chongde was stunned, and a look of surprise flashed across his face.
He didn't know what Ye Yunzi was like? Ye Yunzi was timid and thin-skinned. She was not good at standing out in front of others. She would definitely be the least noticeable person at the party. How could she be favored by the Seventh Prince?
"Yes, the eldest lady's poem shocked the whole audience and completely overwhelmed the others! Now there is still Yu Tan in the capital..."
The maid spoke, her words full of favor towards Ye Yunzi. She had received many favors from Zijin Court before, so naturally she was on the side of the people from Zijin Court.
"What about Yunzi? How did she perform?" Ye Chongde paused and asked.
"Miss Jiaojiao...Miss Jiaojiao doesn't have any other reputation."
The maid smiled and put the teapot down.
Ye Chongde frowned, thinking of Jiaojiao's hesitation today, he knew how she performed. He had high hopes for Jiaojiao, but he didn't expect such a result... Alas, Jiaojiao grew up outside since she was a child, and there was nothing she could do about her inferior skills. He would ask someone to teach her when he had time.
Ye Chongde waved his hand, "Okay, you can go down!"
The maid responded and retreated quietly.
Ye Chongde picked up the teacup, stroked the rim of the cup with his fingertips, and murmured: "Seventh Prince... If Yunzi really wins the favor of the Seventh Prince..."
He narrowed his eyes, his eyes full of calculations. Just thinking about it made Ye Chongde feel warm. His future would be smooth and he would not be such a small official anymore.
……
Zijin Courtyard.
Ye Yunzi didn't care about the rumors from the outside world. Her mind was in a mess and she hadn't figured out who took her things.
The account books of the Marquis' Mansion have been lost. Such a serious matter will definitely be investigated secretly.
"Miss!"
At this moment, Ping'er pushed the door open and walked in, with a happy look on her face, "Miss, please go back to Jiang Mansion as soon as possible! I received a quick reply yesterday, and one of the letters was written to you."
"Uncle?" Ye Yunzi immediately thought of her uncle who was far away.
Although she had never met him before, after experiencing what happened in her previous life, she felt that this person was trustworthy and had a distinguished background. If she took action, she would be able to save the Jiang Mansion.
"Okay, it's too late to leave the house today, so we'll go to Jiang's house tomorrow."
"Yes!" Ping'er nodded.
Ye Yunzi was also delighted and secretly clenched her fists. She didn't expect that she would be able to contact her uncle so soon in this life... Things have changed.
Ye Yunzi went to Jiang Mansion early the next morning. Grandpa Ye doted on his only granddaughter and placed all the things sent from the Western Regions in front of her.
"Yunzi, take anything you like. This time we have sent a lot of rare treasures, including a lot of jewelry from the Western Regions, which your uncle bought specially for you." Ye Taigong's eyes were full of joy, but after he said this, his face darkened slightly.
Ye Yunzi naturally noticed the gloom between Ye Taigong's brows. She didn't know what had happened before. She had never seen her uncle since she was born, nor had she heard anyone in the Jiang Mansion mention him.
"I heard that my uncle wrote back to me?"
What Ye Yunzi valued was not the gold and silver jewelry, but the letter written by her uncle.
Ye Taigong took out a box with a plain white letter in it. He handed it to Ye Yunzi without opening it, "Here."
Ye Yunzi took the letter with her hands trembling slightly. She was nervous when she received her uncle's reply.
At this time, Jiang Bo walked in from outside and said softly, "Master, someone is here to visit us and is waiting in the front hall."
"Visit?" Grandpa Ye frowned. He wanted to spend time with his grandson today, but someone came to disturb him.
"It's the young master of the Shen family." Jiang Bo said quietly. If it was anyone else, he would have declined directly, but Shen Yuming was the person that Ye Taigong liked the most and he cared about him very much.
"Is it Yuan'er?" Ye Taigong's face relaxed and he laughed twice. "I heard that he returned to the capital not long ago. He only remembered me now!"
"Master Shen has been very busy these days, so he has found some time to come visit the old master."
Jiang Bo's words were also directed towards Shen Yuming, and the atmosphere was full of joy.
Ye Yunzi secretly clenched her fists and crumpled the envelope. She looked at Ye Taigong's relief and smile and became furious.
Grandpa Ye treated Shen Yuming like his own grandson, taught him, and did so many things to pave the way for his future. However, Shen Yuming, that ruthless guy, actually colluded with others to frame Grandpa Ye... and had the entire Jiang family executed, with their heads hung high on the city wall...
What had the Jiang family done wrong to him that made him so cruel!
Ye Yunzi's body was trembling and her face looked extremely ugly.
Grandpa Ye looked at Ye Yunzi, "Yunzi, do you want to come too? You and Yuan'er haven't seen each other for many days. I still remember that you two were inseparable. You were very happy with that boy..."
"Grandfather!" Ye Yunzi interrupted Grandpa Ye. Now, when she mentioned Shen Yuming, she felt a chill in her heart.
"I'll stay here and take a look at the things my uncle sent..." She forced a smile to hide her cold look.
"Alright."
Ye Taigong didn't notice that something was wrong with Ye Yunzi, so he turned and left.
……
When no one was in the room, Ye Yunzi tore open the envelope and took out the letter paper. There was only one page of letter paper, and the handwriting was neat and beautiful. The handwriting was like the person, and he looked serious and gentle. It said the details of the matter would be discussed after he arrived in the capital, and asked her not to make it public.
Ye Yunzi lowered her eyes secretly, read the letter over and over again several times, and felt a heavy weight lifted from her heart.
"My uncle believed me... He really believed me. I'm still trying to figure out how to explain it."
In the eyes of outsiders, she was just a girl who had not yet reached marriage age and her words could not be trusted. She had thought that even if she told her uncle, he would not believe her. But now the meaning of the letter clearly showed that she took the matter to heart.
"That's good..." Ye Yunzi murmured and sat down on the chair.
