Chapter 172: Strange Father and Daughter
And at this moment, Mama Han sat in the carriage, waiting for the red sleeves to go to the neon clothes storehouse to find someone, and soon, the depressed red sleeves walked out of it.
"How?"
Mama Han asked with little hope.
Red Sleeves shook her head gently with Lu Yao.
"Come on, where else is she going?"
Mama Han beckoned the two of them to come up and asked to herself. They also went to Yunfu, but there were only a few workers there, and they all said that no one had come.
"Where else will Niang Niang go besides these places?"
Red Sleeves and Green Yao still shook their heads.
At this moment, it was close to noon, there were few pedestrians on the street, and a few people left the neon clothes store and planned to go back to the prince's mansion first to make a decision, if the prince had already returned to the mansion, let the prince decide.
As the carriage was moving, it passed by a carriage coming from the opposite side, and the three people in the carriage didn't notice the big leaf characters on the carriage because they were in a hurry to find someone.
"Miss, it seems to be someone from the Prince's Mansion!"
In the speeding carriage, Luo Mi gently closed the curtain, and then said to Ye Luoli, who was sitting in the car with her eyes closed.
"Leave them alone, I can't protect myself now."
Ye Luoli didn't open her eyes, and said calmly.
Seeing Ye Luoli's attitude, Luo Mi was a little surprised, she leaned forward and lowered her voice, "Miss, you won't plot anything with that princess, right?" ”
The curious little look resembles a gossip lover who listens to secrets.
Ye Luoli finally opened her eyes this time, but she quickly closed them again, she raised her hand and pushed Luo Mi's head away, looking disgusted, "You are really the material for the paparazzi...... Is the nose so smart? After speaking, he simply twisted his head to the side with his arms in his arms, not wanting to pay attention to her anymore, but a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.
Will they succeed?
********
The next day, there was a strange atmosphere in the Night Sword Villa, because the next day was the big day of Miss Ye Er of the Night Sword Villa. The dowry was sent today, full of ten carriages, including gold and silver jewelry, cloth calligraphy and painting, costume jewelry and so on.
Such a large scene alarmed the passers-by of the street where the carriage passed.
"Who's going to do this?"
Someone stood on the side of the road and asked, puzzled.
"I heard that it was a dowry from the Wang family to Miss Ye Er of Night Sword Villa, and this gesture can be regarded as generous." The other whispered as he stroked his non-existent beard.
"Second Miss Ye? It's not a big deal for their family, is it? ”
"But it's different for the Wang family, it is estimated that a lot of family property has been spent, right?"
The other man craned his neck and looked at the distant carriage and said enviously.
"Tsk, I don't think so, I heard that they will come to greet tomorrow, this wedding ......is in a hurry," the previous person rolled his eyes and said seriously.
"God, what did you say? Get hired today and get married tomorrow? How can it be so fast? ”
The other two exclaimed in surprise. Night Sword Villa and the Wang family are not as good as ordinary families, so it's too late to prepare overnight, right? Is there something going on?
They looked at each other and thought about the question at the same time.
"What can be hidden? It's nothing more than that. After the man finished speaking, he didn't say anything more, and took a selfie and patted the corner of his clothes and left, leaving the remaining two looking at each other.
In the evening, Ye Luoli had just stepped into the gate of Night Sword Villa when he was startled by the battle in front of him.
I saw that all the subordinates in the village were standing neatly at the gate, bowing their heads and hunching their waists, and they didn't dare to come out. The leading Ye Wutian and Shen Menglan both had gloomy faces and did not say a word, looking like a storm was coming. Ye Luofan, who was standing beside Ye Wutian, had a worried look on his face, and looked at the gate from time to time.
Seeing Ye Luoli and Luo Mi walking in from outside the door, Ye Luofan's white face seemed to be relieved, and he raised his foot and wanted to step forward, but when he glanced at Ye Wutian, who was rarely frosty on the side, he retracted his half-stretched long legs.
"Daddy... Mother? What are you doing here? ”
Ye Luoli took Luo Mi to stand cautiously at a distance from Ye Wutian, and called weakly.
Ye Wutian, who was holding his hands behind his back, glanced at her sharply, twisted his head to the side, and let out a "hum!" in his nostrils. "A bang.
Ye Luoli's heart chuckled, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, Daddy was angry? It seems that he is still angry. She leaned towards Luo Mi, her fingers quietly tugging at the corners of Luo Mi's clothes behind her back, Luo Mi looked at her in confusion and shook her head to show that she didn't know either.
Ye Luoli fell on Ye Luofan beside Ye Wutian again, and asked silently, "Brother?" ”
Ye Luofan spread his hands, looking helpless.
"Daddy, what the hell is going on? Why is everyone like this? Ye Luoli said timidly, "I can see my heart up and down, I ......"
"Ye Luoli!"
Before Ye Luoli finished speaking, Ye Wutian shouted coldly, and the voice full of anger and anger shook everyone behind him, including Shen Menglan, unconsciously trembling. Those subordinates lowered their heads to the ground, and they didn't dare to raise their heads at all.
"Wutian, look at this ......" Shen Menglan looked at the innocent-looking daughter opposite, and then at Ye Wutian's clenched fists, and said in a low voice, "Or, let's take her back?" So many people are watching! ”
Ye Wutian glanced at it, snorted coldly, and turned around with his long sleeves and left.
"What for? Why don't you catch up? "Let's go
Shen Menglan glared at her daughter with hatred, and motioned for Luo Mi to take Ye Luoli to follow Ye Wutian, and she herself quickly followed behind Ye Wutian with her skirt.
"Brother, what the hell is going on?"
Ye Luoli was dragged by Luo Mi's arm, and she didn't forget to pull Ye Luofan with her, and whispered.
"Heh, you little girl, don't you know what good things you've done yourself? Tsk tsk, it's really... If you don't hit the south wall, you won't look back! You're done! ”
Ye Luofan shook his head a little gloatingly, poked Ye Luoli's nose with the tip of the fan in his hand, and then followed Shen Menglan behind him without any sympathy.
"Miss, let's go?"
Luo Mi pulled Ye Luoli distressedly and persuaded in a low voice.
She knew that the owner and his wife would receive the news soon, after all, the eyes and ears of Night Sword Villa were everywhere. Miss this is ...... Challenging the owner's bottom line!
Ye Luoli flattened her mouth, a little unimpressed.
The two followed Ye Wutian and the others to the inner courtyard, and the more they walked, the more frightened they became.
This is not the way to the owner's study, nor to any other room, but to the ancestral hall in the backyard.
Ye Luoli and Luo Mi glanced at each other, and Luo Mi whispered, "Miss, I'm afraid the master is really angry this time." ”
"If you're angry, you're angry, who made him have to let me get married?"
Ye Luoli's face was full of disapproval, looking like an arrogant young lady, but her heart was tightly pinched, could it be that this time, she was really going to be punished? Since she came to this world, Ye Wutian has only scolded her at most, but he has never done anything to her, which shows how much Ye Wutian dotes on her.
And today I will take her to the ancestral hall.....
She looked up at the sky and thought to herself, "I hope it's not what I imagined." ”
Accompanied by Luo Mi, Ye Luoli followed everyone to the ancestral hall of Night Sword Villa with fear.
The ancestral hall of Yejian Villa is located in the backyard of the villa, with a single large courtyard in which a huge banyan tree with thick branches and dense branches and leaves covers most of the courtyard. On both sides of the ancestral hall, there are two rows of side rooms, east and west, in which the sacrificial supplies that are usually used are placed, and the subordinates who manage the ancestral hall live.
At this moment, the door of the ancestral hall was open, and Ye Wutian was kneeling on the futon in the middle of the ancestral hall, his back straight, his hands folded, his eyes closed reverently, and he didn't know what he was muttering.
Ye Luoli stretched out her head at the door and glanced in, and quickly retracted her head again, it was the first time she came to this place since she came, the light inside was a little dim, she always felt eerie, and a strange aura came to her face.
"Why don't you come in and kneel?"
Ye Wutian's cold voice sounded from the ancestral hall, with hidden anger.
"Daddy? Can I .....?"
She originally wanted to say that I could just stand outside and talk, but she was dragged in by Shen Menglan, and Shen Menglan didn't forget to whisper a warning in her ear, "Come in!" Don't your dad off! ”
Ye Luoli was dragged into the ancestral hall by Shen Menglan, and the moment she stepped into the high threshold, Ye Luoli felt a chill coming, and she couldn't help but shiver, sure enough, this kind of place was not suitable for her.
She looked up and saw that there was no one else in the entire ancestral hall, only their family of three. In the middle of the ancestral hall, there are a few rows enshrined, in front of each row, a small candle is lit, swaying in the breeze blowing in at the door, the faint light illuminates those black rows more terrifyingly, and the black veil not far away is like a ghost dressed in a witch's garb, dancing.
Ye Luoli suddenly felt scared, she raised her legs and unconsciously wanted to go out.
"Get on your knees!"
Ye Wutian shouted loudly, which frightened Ye Luoli into a spirit, his legs became weak, and he knelt beside Ye Wutian with a "bang", and the fine cold sweat on his forehead began to come out.
"Squeak!"
The cold sound of the door closing, Ye Luoli quickly looked back, only to see Shen Menglan's red skirt flashing through the crack in the door.
Only two people were left in the room, her and Ye Wutian, who was kneeling.
The air was once suffocating, and an unknown feeling surged into Ye Luoli's heart, she was a little scared and a little sad, knelt on the futon in a proper manner, and called weakly, "Daddy....."
"Kowtow to the ancestors!"
Ye Wutian didn't look at her, just ordered coldly.
Ye Luoli looked at his expressionless and resolute side face, and his long gray hair, which was meticulously combed, was all curled on the top of his head, and a simple wooden hairpin pinned it. The forehead is high and straight, and the wrinkles on it can be seen when viewed from the side. She suddenly realized that the man in front of her was so strange, and she and him had only known each other for half a year.
I don't know what was going on, Ye Luoli suddenly had a whim, got up and ran to the door.
It's just that as soon as she opened a door, there was a strong wind behind her,
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, the door was swept shut by the gust of wind, and Ye Luoli's skirt was not lifted.
She reached out and pulled the door again, but it didn't move.
At this moment, a feeble sense of fear came over her, and she shook the door so hard that she could not open even a crack in the door that was not locked at all.
"You can't get out."
An icy voice came.
Ye Luoli turned around slowly, leaning her back against the closed door, her legs trembling a little under her skirt.
She watched Ye Wutian slowly stand up from the futon like that, then turned around and looked at her.
