Chapter 43 The Ye Family Has Turned Over

The old lady's complexion is better today than the day before. Bai Jinghong felt strange as soon as he came in. He subconsciously went to find the pot of orchids, but found that the place where the orchids were placed in the past had been replaced by a pot of other flowers and plants.

Her heart sank suddenly.

Ye continued to serve tea to the old lady. The old lady glanced at her hands that were still blushing and asked, "The hands are not healed yet?"

Ye Shi shivered and the tea spilled out.

"Okay, let it go." The old lady took the tea and stopped talking.

Ye retreated, and almost died of anger. She didn't know how long it would take for these hands to heal. She couldn't lift the heavy objects now, and she felt it was a shame when she saw her hands.

She glared at Bai Heran without hiding her hatred at all. But Bai Heran gave her a sarcastic smile, with a hint of provocation.

Ye could hardly help but attack, but at this time, a maid outside the hall reported: "The man from Ye's house said he wanted to see the second wife."

Ye Shi stood up suddenly, her face unconcealed joy. She really came whatever she wanted. The Bai family bullied her so much. Now that her mother's family is here, someone finally supports her.

She glanced at the old lady proudly and said, "Please invite someone in."

The maid leaned over at her, but her inquiring eyes turned to the old lady again. The old lady said helplessly: "Please come in!"

At this time, the Ye family must have handed over the things that happened in the past few days to their parents' home. Most of the people from the Ye family came to raise an army to question the crime.

The old lady looked at Bai Heran with some concern, but saw Bai Heran slowly shook her head with a cunning smile on her face. The old lady was stunned. Could it be that it wasn't what she thought?

Bai Jinghong also breathed a sigh of relief, and a happy smile appeared on his face, "I don't know if it was my eldest uncle or my second uncle, or the two uncles came together? Jinghong hasn't seen his uncles for a long time, and he missed him very much."

Bai Huayan quickly followed and said, "I miss my uncle very much, too."

Ye said to them with a smile: "My uncle has loved you since he was a child and he can't bear to suffer any grievances. If you don't go back to visit, they will naturally come to see you."

Bai Zhenzhen leaned over, leaned over to Bai Heran, and whispered: "If the Ye family doesn't know anything else, they will go to the palace to complain, one more than the other is unreasonable. If they really come to support them today, there will be a big mess."

Bai Heran smiled and asked her: "Are you afraid?"

Bai Zhenzhen snorted, "If you have the ability, kill me. As long as I can't kill me, I will not let them have fun for a day."

While talking, the maid from Jinrongyuan led an old lady in. Bai Heran raised her eyebrows, "The show is going to start."

Ye was stunned when he looked at the person coming in, thought for a while, and sat back silently back into the chair. Bai Jinghong also tightly twisted the handkerchief in his hand, looking puzzled.

Bai Huayan shouted out in a loud voice: "Madam Wan? Didn't you say that my uncle is here? Where is the person?"

Ye turned around and glared at her fiercely. Bai Huayan immediately lowered her head and dared not speak. But Bai Jinghong whispered: "Mother, why is she here?"

Ye didn't know why the old lady came. When she was young, the old lady was the maid of the current Empress Dowager. She even followed the Empress Dowager into the palace and stayed in the palace until she was almost 60 years old before she was released. After leaving the palace, she entered the Ye family under the arrangement of the old lady and followed the two elders of the Ye family.

It can be said that this person has a special status in the Ye family. Although he is a slave, because she and the Empress Dowager have a love relationship with him since childhood, no one dares to really treat her as a slave.

Ye looked at Madam Wan and was full of thoughts. He heard that last year her second brother sent Madam Wan to serve his favorite concubine. It seemed that the concubine had recently given birth to a concubine son. This old woman was not serving the master at the Ye family, so why did she go to Duke Wen’s mansion to do?

The person who came in saluted the old lady and said with a stern face: "Old slave greets Mrs. Bai."

The old lady was stunned again, and then quickly said, "It's Madam Wan of the Ye family? I rarely walked around us before. Is there anything wrong with coming to the mansion this time?"

The old woman nodded, "It's true that there is something wrong with the old lady, but I have to ask our aunt about this."

The aunt she mentioned was naturally Ye. The old lady was a little unhappy. She couldn't control what she called Ye when she returned to her parents' home. However, in the Bai Mansion, the servants of the Ye family insisted on calling her aunt, which was a bit disrespectful to Duke Wen's mansion.

Just as she was about to say something, she saw Bai Heran shook her head at her again, and she seemed to not let her care too much. The old lady was puzzled, but she still subconsciously chose to listen to Bai Heran's words.

At this time, Madam Wan took the initiative to change her words, "Maybe you shouldn't call me aunt, you should call your second wife. First, here is Duke Wen's Mansion, second, now, the second wife is afraid that she will no longer take the Ye family seriously?"

"What did you say?" Ye was shocked, almost thinking that something was wrong with her ear. She asked Bai Jinghong, "Did you hear it? What did she say just now?"

Bai Jinghong's face was also pale at this time, and the gap between expectations and reality was too big, so she didn't know how to deal with it for a moment.

Xiao Ye was relatively calm. She took the initiative to speak and asked the woman who came to the door: "I don't know why Madam Wan said such a thing, but what are the misunderstandings? Why would you go to Fuxiyuan with the second wife. They are all family members. If there is any misunderstanding, it will be over."

Bai Jinghong pinched Ye's hand, nodded slightly at her, and signaled him to do what Xiao Ye said.

Ye also reacted and quickly answered: "Yes, if you have anything to do, follow me to Fuxiyuan and say, don't embarrass you here."

Then Madam Wan glanced at Ye and said nothing, she agreed.

Ye just breathed a sigh of relief, but how could Bai Heran let her go so easily?

So, a voice that Ye family was most reluctant to hear was raised lazily: "A guest is here, and the guests have already arrived in front of their grandmother. How can they take them back as daughter-in-law to entertain themselves? What's more, the nanny's meaning is like some complaints about the second wife in our mansion. Since you call the second wife, this matter cannot be separated from our Duke Wen's mansion. The second wife cannot be taken back to solve the problem in private. We have to discuss it openly. Grandma, do you think so?"

The old lady nodded, "It's true." She was also curious why the Ye family suddenly came to say this to Ye? This pose seemed to be here to provoke a military force.

The old lady nodded, and Ye completely lost the opportunity to take the person away. She clenched her fists unwillingly, and her anger burned, and her nails were all tied into her flesh.

Madam Wan looked like she was indifferent. She just looked at Bai Heran meaningfully for a while, then turned around and didn't prepare to leave again. At the same time, she spoke, "It's the same wherever she said. The old slave came here today to ask the second wife what the gifts she gave to Ye's mansion yesterday meant? Although she was born only a concubine's son, she was also the concubine's son that the second master loved the most. If you don't like him and ignore him, it's over, why would you still be humiliated?"

Ye was confused, "What kind of courtesy? I know that my second brother's concubine gave birth to a child, but she was only a concubine and was not qualified to receive my courtesy."

Madam Wan's old face became even more gloomy, "You are right. A mere concubine's son cannot get into the eyes of the second wife of the Duke of Wenguo's mansion. But just as you said, a concubine's son is not qualified to receive your gifts, so you can't give it to him. Why should you send those bad things to humiliate? After all, it is the blood of the Ye family. No matter how humble you are, you cannot tolerate such tramplings."

Ye's heart trembled. When she faced Madam Wan, she really couldn't take the big shot. If the old woman got interested in going to the palace to meet the queen mother one day, she would just say something, and my aunt would probably not give her good colors.

Although she is a niece, she can't stand the decades of companionship in the deep palace. Her aunt can survive to the end and become the position of the queen mother, and this nun Wan has made great contributions.

Thinking of this, Ye had to suppress all the anger in his heart. Today, her second brother Ye Chengming sent Madam Wan over, which shows that she was really angry and wanted to ask her for an explanation.

But she is really wronged. How should she explain this crime? When did she give gifts to Ye’s house?

When Bai Jinghong saw his mother's appearance, he knew that there must be something here, so he asked, "I wonder what gift my mother gave to Ye's mansion?"

"Hmph." Madam Wan said sternly: "A basket of eggs, two feet of red cloth, a pack of snacks, and five meat buns."

puff!

The family members of the audience laughed when they heard this. This was too cold, and even the concubine's son could not give them to him! After all, the sect brother of the Ye family was there. Isn't giving these to him intentionally disgusting people?

Bai Zhenzhen smiled the most invisible, and a mouthful of tea in her mouth squirted out. She used her sleeves to wipe her mouth while mocking Ye and said, "My dear stepmother, I really misunderstood you in the past. I thought you were just bad to our family. It turns out that you were so cruel to your mother and family? Hahahaha!"

Hong also giggled without any scruples, laughing and ridiculed: "Second Madam, are you out of money? Why, the books of the monthly official are empty again? No, where did you use all the money in the middle of the month?"

"Aunt Hong." Bai Jinghong couldn't listen anymore. She stood up and brewed hard, and a pool of tears fell into her eyes. "It would be fine if Aunt Hong confronted her mother in a tit-for-tat way. Her mother said that when she was closed, she was a family and her family would not care about her. But now with outsiders, can't you restrain yourself? You should always take care of our Duke Wen's Mansion."

Hong Shi gave her a blank look, then spoke back: "If you have no face, you say that you are shameless. What's the matter with Duke Wen's Mansion? If you give someone a son, you will give someone red cloth and buns, which will make Duke Wen's Mansion look good?"

"You--" Bai Jinghong was speechless. I really didn't know how to reply to this. At this moment, she was also guessing whether Ye had really given such a thing. After all, her mother secretly complained to her second uncle.

For a moment, the hall became quiet. But after a while, Bai Heran thought about it and spoke again...
