Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother

"I ran into her by chance while I was walking around. Seeing her nervous expression and shouting for help, I guessed that she might have witnessed the accident."

"So that's how it is..." Ye Yunzi whispered to herself.

A complex look flashed across Su Huan's eyes. In fact, he was not just strolling around that day, but had been lingering near the hall for a long time, curious about who this third concubine was who had a relationship with General Rong.

He originally planned that if the Third Aunt was really useful, he would use her to establish a relationship with Miss Ye Ziru.

Unexpectedly, these two people are so vicious and their minds are full of petty calculations of competing for favor and wits.

General Rong lived an upright life. Even if he had had a relationship with the Third Aunt, he would never lend a helping hand once he learned of her sinister nature.

Su Huan decisively gave up this idea.

At this moment, looking at Ye Yunzi's haggard face after falling into the water, he inexplicably felt a bit of pity in his heart, and even a feeling of care that he himself had not noticed arose spontaneously. He stared at Ye Yunzi blankly.

Ye Yunzi responded with a bright smile. The sunlight shone on her, making her originally sickly pale skin appear as smooth as jade, and her beautiful eyebrows and eyes became even more charming.

"Anyway...thank you anyway."

"You trust me..." Su Huan whispered to himself, his voice so soft that only he could hear it.

"Hmm?" Ye Yunzi looked at him doubtfully, her eyes were as clear as a mirror without any doubt. Su Huan's heart tightened, and breathing became difficult.

"Nothing." Su Huan avoided her gaze. From that moment on, he secretly vowed that no matter how others suspected her, he would stand firmly by her side and be her support.

Soon, Su Yongyu and Su Huan left under Su's persuasion, and Su said she wanted to rest alone.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Su was deeply troubled, with a look of sorrow between her brows. At this moment, no comfort could relieve the depression in her heart.

……

"Young Master Su is such a good man. Thanks to him for finding Yulan to testify, otherwise the young lady would have been proven to have pushed the third concubine into the water!" Yu Shu sighed, and the heavy stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.

Ye Yunzi smiled softly and combed her hair, "Yes."

When she first met Su Huan, she felt an indescribable sense of intimacy that made her want to trust him involuntarily.

But whenever she looked into those deep purple eyes, her heart would suddenly tremble, a chill would run down her spine, and inexplicable fear would arise.

Su Huan, did we have any intersection in our previous life? Who is he and why does he give me such contradictory feelings?

However, knowing that he was Su Yongyu's adopted son in this life, he felt relieved.

Su Yongyu has a sharp eye and will never let potential threats get close to him, so Su Huan is naturally trustworthy.

Ye Yunzi paused for a moment, then ordered, "Bring the account books and seals from the backyard."

"Miss, what are you going to do with those?" Yu Shu was puzzled, as these things were usually managed by the lady.

Although the wife was in poor health, the affairs of the backyard were always in order in her hands. The Su family started out as a business, and Su was influenced by it since she was a child. She was proficient in accounting and had been managing the backyard of the Ye Mansion for many years. If it weren't for her, the backyard would have been in chaos.

Unfortunately, Ye Chongde was completely unaware of this and just kept ignoring her.

"Give this mess back to Father."

Ye Yunzi said coldly that the account book of the backyard should have been handed over long ago, and the reason why it was still in Su's hands was simply because she was the eldest lady.

But now Su is exhausted both physically and mentally. If he continues to be in charge of these things, his health will collapse sooner or later.

It is better to get rid of this thankless job as soon as possible. Besides, Ye Chongde is probably hoping that Su will give up power.

"Miss, how can this be possible!" Yu Shu's eyes widened, "If this happens, Madam's status..."

Zijinyuan has always been neglected. If it loses even the power to manage the backyard, other courtyards will take advantage of the opportunity to take over!

"No need to say anything, just do as I say!"

Ye Yun was determined and had made up her mind. Yu Shu was in a state of anxiety and left the room to consult with Aunt Zhao. Aunt Zhao was silent for a moment, then she sighed and handed over the key to the storeroom, "Take it and do as the young lady says."

Yu Shu held the key, looking incredulous and hesitant.

Zhao Ma's eyes were full of traces of time, as if she had seen all the world's fireworks. "It's time to let go of the backyard affairs. Madam's body can't stand such hard work. She needs to rest well... Miss has her own ideas. We should follow her wishes and follow her wherever she points."

Yu Shu pursed her lips and finally nodded vigorously.

Aunt Zhao stood in the hall for a long time, her face full of reluctance and helplessness.

……

"Miss, all the account books are here." Yu Shu came over holding a stack of heavy account books. Ye Yunzi flipped through a few pages casually. The accounts on them were clear and neat, which was amazing.

"Okay, help me get dressed, I'm going to talk to my father."

Ye Yunzi changed into simple clothes and showed her bare face, which made her look even paler and more exhausted.

……

In the study, Ye Chongde frowned and his mind became increasingly confused.

An incident of falling into the water led to so many twists and turns. Fortunately, the baby in the third aunt's belly was safe and sound. The doctor diagnosed that it was a coma caused by overwork and she just needed to rest for a few days.

The most difficult issue at the moment is how to deal with the follow-up matters of Zijinyuan.

A few days ago, he severely punished Ye Yunzi, and Su took the punishment on his behalf in the ancestral hall. As a result, he caught a cold at night and has been bedridden ever since.

"Alas." Ye Chongde's brows were filled with worry.

"Father."

There was a gentle knock on the study door, and Ye Yunzi's figure came into view.

Seeing that it was Ye Yunzi, Ye Chongde coughed twice to hide his embarrassment, "Why are you here?"

"Yunzi has something she wants to discuss with her father." Ye Yunzi looked weak, as if a breeze could blow her down.

Ye Chongde couldn't help feeling a little guilty, and his tone softened, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

Ye Yunzi waved her hand slightly, and Yu Shu stepped forward and gently placed the account book and seal on the desk.

"This is……"

When Ye Chongde saw that it was the account book of the backyard, he was stunned.

Ye Yunzi forced a smile and said slowly, "My mother is seriously ill and needs to lie down and rest. The doctor told her to focus on her work. She is already overwhelmed by the trivial matters in the backyard, so I sent the account book here today and asked my father to make other arrangements."

Ye Chongde stared at the pile of account books, his heart was filled with joy. He had long wanted Su to give up the account books, but he couldn't ask for it due to the rules. Now that Su took the initiative to ask, he was naturally overjoyed.

There was a gleam of joy in his eyes, but he deliberately put on a stern face and said in a serious tone: "Okay, recuperation is the most important thing, you don't have to worry about the things in the backyard. As for the third aunt..." He wanted to take the opportunity to suggest that the third aunt take over, but when he felt Ye Yunzi's scrutinizing gaze, he swallowed his words back.
