Chapter 17: Ventilation

When he returned to the back hall, Zhao Zhijing immediately instructed Master Ji to hand over the post of the visit to the Ye Mansion and asked Ye Fengchun to get together in the banquet building. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe Ye family is the richest man in Izumo. As the old saying goes, officials and businessmen have been in a family since ancient times. What's more, this Ye Mansion has friendships with various forces in the capital. I can't afford to offend.

When the sun was empty, Zhao Zhijing went to the private room of the banquet building early and waited. After a while, the pot-bellied Ye Fengchun arrived with a smile, arched his hand and said, "Brother Zhao, how can you be so Yaxing today!" ”

"Brother Ye, can't you and my brother drink and listen to the drama if you have nothing to do?" Zhao Zhijing hurriedly got up and greeted the door, and said politely.

The two sat down, and after the wine and food were served, Zhao Zhijing touched his nose, looking like he wanted to talk.

Ye Fengchun then retreated, and when there were only two people left in the rather affectionate private room, Zhao Zhijing said: "Brother Ye, little brother, I have encountered a tricky matter." I also hope that the old brother will give me some advice. ”

"I'm just a businessman, how can I understand the affairs of your officialdom." Ye Fengchun waved his hand modestly, saying that there were no petty officials in the capital. Although the official position of Shuntianfu Yin is not high, it is better to have multiple friends than multiple enemies.

"But this matter is related to your Ye Mansion, little brother, I can't make up my mind. I'm here to ask my brother. Zhao Zhijing sandwiched a peanut and said while chewing.

"Oh? What does it have to do with my Ye Mansion? Ye Fengchun asked suspiciously.

"Early this morning, someone beat the drum and shouted grievances, saying that the fourth lady of the Ye Mansion beat her sister to death. What's it called... By the way, it's a maid named Green Marks. Zhao Zhijing succinctly stated the process. Then he looked at Ye Fengchun's expression, but he didn't see any doorways.

"It was her. There is such a thing. Somehow, the girl stumbled and drowned in the pond in the house. How can you say that he was killed in Yefu? Although my Ye Mansion is not a rich and noble family, it will not embarrass people. What's more, the deed of sale of this green mark is still in my Ye Mansion. Ye Fengchun said expressionlessly.

"Brother Ye, you're laughing, the whole Izumo, that's what you said was second, but no one dared to say first." Zhao Zhijing saw that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, and hurriedly poured wine for Ye Fengchun. Said flatteringly.

"Brother, you have to think about it for my brother. Shuntian Mansion Yin's seat, how many pairs of eyes are staring at it. If you're not careful, my brother's black gauze hat will be gone. Zhao Zhijing smiled bitterly and took a sip of wine.

"Brother Zhao, just rush you to give this wind to my brother, my brother will lead your affection, what should I do, I will not make you embarrassed, and let the people in the whole capital see what kind of people my Ye Mansion is." Ye Fengchun said with confidence.

In the room of pushing the cup and changing the lamp, they talked about the situation in the capital. When they were all drunk, they went out of the door of the banquet building.

Ye Fengchun closed his eyes and sat in the carriage, and instructed Steward Huang: "After returning to the house, please ask Mrs. to see me in the study." ”

Ye Fengchun sat on the Nanmu chair, and the temperature in the study was warm and drowsy. The maid lifted the thick curtain and served a cup of strong tea, so that Ye Fengchun could relieve his hangover.

"Master, you are in a hurry to find me something." After saluting, Nguyen asked.

Ye Fengchun looked at Ruan's for a long time, as if he wanted to see a flower on her face before he would stop. After bypassing the desk, he stood in front of Nguyen.

A "snap" sounded, and Ye Fengchun slapped Ruan Shi hard.

Ruan's eyes immediately burst into tears, one hand stroked his hot face, looked at Ye Fengchun and choked up: "Master, what did the concubine do wrong?" ”

"Good deeds you did yourself. Didn't you get you to deal with the green streaks? How did you deal with it now in Shuntianfu? I don't think Ye Fu needs to stay in the capital anymore, I can't afford to lose this person. Ye Fengchun slapped his face and yelled.

"The concubine only thinks that the green mark has been by my side for many years, serving and doing her best, without merit and hard work. Only then did she arrange for someone to send her body back to her hometown, and the concubine really didn't know how things could get to Shuntianfu. Nguyen replied in surprise. Sob and choke.

"Fortunately, Lord Zhao of Shuntian Mansion informed me as soon as he found out today. I'm just afraid that I can't stop Youyou's mouth. Ye Fengchun was very irritable and paced back and forth.

Ruan's couldn't think of a good idea to help Ye Fengchun solve his worries for a while. So he just wiped his tears on the side. Even the sound of sobbing was very soft, for fear of provoking Ye Fengchun to get angry again.

Ruan Shi said tentatively: "Why don't you give more silver taels and settle this matter?" ”

Ye Fengchun shook his head and said, "If money can solve the problem, is it still a problem?" The last thing my Ye family lacks is money. Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles. Can money buy back the reputation of Ye Mansion? ”

Ye Fengchun looked at Ruan's eyes with blurred tears, thinking that no matter how big the anger was at this time, it would be useless, and he had to find a way to solve it quickly. But he couldn't pull his face to appease Ruan, so he had to wave his hand to make Ruan retreat.

Ye Fengchun drank the wine and sent out another evil fire. My chest is stuffy and uncomfortable. Steward Huang said outside the door: "Master, the fourth lady is here." ”

Ye Fengchun frowned slightly, and replied, "Let her in." The tone was cold.

"Dad, are you hurting for the Green Mark?" Ye Juan looked at Ye Fengchun and rubbed it gently with one hand against his forehead. It was very natural to step forward, and gently rubbed Ye Fengchun's temples with both hands.

"You've heard?" Ye Fengchun snorted comfortably, and then asked rhetorically.

"Such a big matter, and it concerns my daughter. How could my daughter not know? Ye Juan replied.

"A slave is just a slave, and when he dies, he dies. It's just the reputation of our Ye Mansion, I'm afraid it's ....." A tree lives a skin, and a man lives a face. Ye Fengchun said helplessly.

"Since this matter has nothing to do with our Ye family, where do we need to pay attention to this. Those who are clear are self-purifying. Ye Juan said a little arrogantly.

Ye Fengchun patted Ye Xuan's hand to signal him to stop, and said, "What you thought of is too simple. A lot of things aren't black and white. ”

"My daughter understood. It's just about her daughter's reputation, and it's about Ye Fu's reputation. If the father can trust his daughter, and the daughter is willing to go to court with the Wang family, he will not let this villain tarnish the reputation of my Ye Mansion. Ye Wan said steadily.

Ye Fengchun couldn't understand Ye Juan. I just feel the certainty and confidence in the eyes of this daughter of mine. I thought to myself that there was no better solution to this matter anyway. So he nodded suspiciously.

Ye Juan smiled and saluted, and said, "Dad, don't worry. Wan'er is measured. "The eyes are determined.

Ye Fengchun smiled and waved his hand to signal Ye Juan to step back. I'm afraid this daughter of mine is not simple!
