Chapter 290: It's chilling
"That's true, the lower officials are worried about this." The second prince said such a big thing freely, how could Ye Houde not understand the truth, but how could he rush up to catch up, it was better to pretend to be stupid.
The second prince, Jiang Shunhua, looked at Ye Houde with deep sympathy and offered him advice: "Lord Ye, don't worry, this prince wants to ......." ”
Compared with the second prince, the more he talked, the more proud he became, and the happier he became, Ye Houde's face became darker and darker, and his heart became colder and colder.
Unexpectedly, the second prince Jiang Shunhua not only forced him to take out all the donations, but now he actually hit his daughter with the idea.
It turned out that the second prince Jiang Shunhua meant that anyway, the money Ye Tianqing recovered from selling grain would have to be used to buy grain, so it was better to buy the grain from Jiangnan directly.
In this way, the people of Liangqu Villa no longer have to go to great lengths and waste manpower and material resources to buy grain elsewhere, which can not only save transportation costs, but also save the caravan of Liangqu Villa from running back and forth, and let the people in the northwest eat food as soon as possible and save the lives of more displaced people.
"However, the lower official seems to have heard the little girl say that all the things about buying and selling grain are entrusted to Liangqu Villa, and she can't be the master." Even if His Royal Highness the Second Prince said that the sky was falling, Ye Houde still looked powerless.
When the second prince Jiang Shunhua heard this, the haze flashed in his eyes, but he quickly smiled gently and said to Ye Houde: "Lord Ye may not know that this prince looks at the good relationship between Jin Han, the young owner of this Liangqu Villa, and Miss Ye San, and thinks that as long as Miss Ye San asks for something, this young master of Jin will definitely agree." ”
Ye Houde listened. Raising his bloodshot eyes, he asked suspiciously, "Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, do you mean that the young master of Jin Shaozhuang will agree?" ”
"Lord Ye, I believe in this prince, as long as you write a letter in person, this matter should be inseparable." The second prince, Jiang Shunhua, shook the fish mountain leisurely as he spoke, as if everything was under his control.
"However, Xia Guan is not familiar with the owner of Liangqu Villa, Jin Shao, and he can't contact him for a while, how can this be good?" Ye Houde wiped the sweat from his forehead. Said worriedly.
"Ahh Lord Ye, this prince didn't ask you to write directly to the owner of Jin Shaozhuang, but said to let you write to Miss Ye San, do you want to. With Miss Ye San's filial piety to Lord Ye. Received a letter from Lord Ye. He will definitely try his best to contact the owner of Jin Shaozhuang, and the owner of Jin Shaozhuang and Miss Ye San are in a master-employment relationship, and the owner of Jin Shaozhuang will definitely listen to Miss Ye San's employer. Isn't this matter solved lightly? "If he didn't know Ye Houde's ability and wanted to take it under his command, the second prince would almost blurt out scolding, he would have never seen someone more roundabout and stupid than the person in front of him, he would have to wonder if he had made a mistake in his judgment, and whether he should waste time on this kind of person.
Ye Houde was a hundred unhappy about the so-called excellent idea said by His Royal Highness Jiang Shunhua of the Second Prince, but in view of the strength of the Second Prince, he had to write a letter to his daughter in front of the Second Prince, explaining what he meant just now.
Moreover, seeing that letter, it was sent out by the people of the second prince.
Coming out of the courtyard where the second prince temporarily lived, Ye Houde returned to Ye's Mansion with heavy steps and locked himself in the study.
originally thought that the second prince Jiang Shunhua was the emperor's most valued son, known as a virtuous name, and a rare good prince, but he didn't expect to be such an unscrupulous person to achieve his goals.
If other people are so mercenary, he can understand it, but he is a prince, shouldn't he be like the emperor and take the lives of all the people as his own responsibility? How can you ignore the life and death of the people just for the sake of not losing your own face and for the benefit of a few people?
"Alas, I don't know what Qing'er will think of my father after receiving the letter, I hope he can understand his father's hardship." Ye Tianqing let out a long sigh, and her tired face was even more sad.
"Father, the child has something to see." I don't know how long it took, until I heard the voice of my eldest son Ye Tianwei outside, Ye Houde came back to his senses from his contemplation.
Quickly rubbing his cheeks with his hands, and clearing his throat with a light cough, Ye Houde let Ye Tianwei into the study, and asked with concern, "Is there something wrong with Wei'er coming over at this time?" ”
"Father, I heard that my father went into the study without eating after he came back, but I didn't feel at ease and came over to take a look, my father hasn't eaten yet, right?" Ye Tian saw his father's thinner and tired cheeks, and asked with concern.
"Oh, Dad had some refreshments outside, not hungry." Ye Houde knew that his son cared about him, his heart warmed, and he said with a loving smile.
"How about just a few refreshments? My father works so hard every day, if I don't eat well, how can my body stand it, if the third sister knows, I will definitely worry about my father. These days, Ye Tianwei can be said to have experience in how to persuade his father, and he knows that his weight is insufficient, so he directly brought out Ye Tianqing.
"You're right, if you want to eat well, let the kitchen bring some food over casually."
No, as soon as he heard that the third sister was worried, his father immediately asked for food.
Ye Tianwei agreed with a smile, turned around and went out to take the meal from the maid guarding outside, and brought it into the study in person.
Seeing this, Ye Houde smiled in surprise, then shook his head and said, "It seems that you have been prepared for a long time." ”
"This is all taken care of by the third sister, saying that if possible, you must take care of your father's diet and daily life, and you can't be too tired." Ye Tianwei personally took the food out of the food box and put it on the desk.
The meal is extremely simple, with only a bowl of tofu, a scrambled egg with fungus, and a bowl of rice.
If it is Ye Houde's meaning, he doesn't need this scrambled egg, as long as he can fill his stomach.
said that he was not hungry, but in fact, it was just because he was in a bad mood, and now he picked up the rice bowl, even if it was such a simple meal, Ye Houde ate it with relish, and soon ate all the food, really, from going out in the morning to eat early until now, he has never eaten, and his stomach has long been hungry.
Seeing his eldest son happily cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, Ye Houde was very relieved, and couldn't help but ask with concern: "Wei'er, are your injuries healed?" How about Hao'er and your two cousins' injuries? ”
"Back to my father, the injuries on my son's body are almost healed, and the injuries of the two cousins are almost healed, but Hao'er's injuries will take a few more days, but I believe it will recover soon." Hearing his father ask about his injury, Ye Tianwei said embarrassedly.
He originally promised his sister to take care of his father and younger brother, but as a result, not only was he and his younger brothers injured, but he almost lost his life. It also caused a lot of trouble to his father, who was already busy.
"When are you going back to the academy?" Just when Ye Tianwei felt sorry for himself, he heard his father's question.
