Chapter 27: The Blackened Heroine (1)
"Father, I am happy with the son of the Zhang family, you know." Ye Mingming lowered her head and tugged on her sleeve and said.
"My father knows, but the marriage between you and that Li Gongzi is a foregone conclusion and cannot be changed, tomorrow, you go to Liuhe Manor to meet him." Master Ye looked at his daughter, and directly made a final decision, not allowing her to refuse.
"My daughter doesn't want to, Dad, how can you give your manor to someone else?" Ye Mingming was a little puzzled, since she was a child, her father had never forced her to do anything she didn't like, why was she so domineering in marriage.
"That Li Gongzi has a noble status, you can't refuse, you and that Zhang family are destined to be inseparable." Master Ye stretched out his hand, touched Ye Mingming's head, and said earnestly.
"I want to meet the Zhang family." Ye Mingming said in frustration, fortunately, she and the Zhang family did not express their intentions.
"Okay." Master Ye agreed.
Ye Mingming put on a veil, led the maid out to the East Lane, and knocked on the door of the Zhang family.
"Miss Ye, you're here to find the young master, right? The little one is going to call the young master out. The one who opened the door saw that it was Ye Mengming, and immediately went to report, and after a while, the young master of the Ye family came out.
The young master of the Ye family was seventeen years old, wearing a light blue robe, with a gentle smile on his face, and he said, "Miss Ye, why are you here?" ”
"Brother Yuan, my father has set me up for marriage." When Ye Mengming spoke, she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at the young master of the Zhang family.
"Why so suddenly?" Young Master Zhang frowned, and the pastries hidden in his sleeves were crushed.
"My dad just said that." Ye Mingming said dejectedly.
"That'...... What do you think? Young Master Zhang looked at Ye Mingming and asked with some expectation.
"I ...... I don't want to ......" Ye Mingming clenched her fists and looked up at the young master of the Zhang family, looking at his gentle and somewhat hurt eyes, her tears fell.
"Xiao Yezi, don't cry, let's go to your father together, okay?" The young master of the Zhang family lost the pastry wrapped in paper in his hand, he rushed forward, instinctively wanted to wipe Ye Mengming's tears, but his hand was about to touch her face, he stopped.
"I ......" Ye Mengming looked at the paused hand of the young master of the Zhang family, and wanted to reach out to grab it, but thinking that she couldn't marry him, she controlled her impulse, and her tears were even more uncontrollable.
"Don't cry, you ......" The young master of the Zhang family looked at Ye Mingming crying sadly, he didn't care about it, and directly grabbed Ye Mingming's hand and rushed towards the Ye family.
The two went to see Master Ye together.
The young master of the Zhang family took Ye Mingming's hand, looked at Master Ye and said seriously: "As soon as Xiao Yezi was born, the first time I opened my eyes, I saw me, when she caught Zhou, it was me who caught me, and I was the one who went to the private school with her, she likes me, I like her, Uncle Ye, I want to marry Xiao Yezi as my wife." ”
Ye Mengming looked at her father with some expectation and some fear, and the young master of the Zhang family grabbed her hand, making her feel a little relieved.
"Xiaoyuan, it's not that my uncle is unwilling, it's really ...... You come with me to the study, and I'll tell you why. ”
Master Ye asked Zhang Yuan to go to the study alone to talk, and Ye Mengming was blocked in the hall by the maid and waited.
She waited anxiously for a long time, and when she saw Zhang Yuan again, his eyes were blank and red and swollen, obviously crying.
He raised his eyes to look at Ye Mingming, his eyes were full of despair and reluctance, how could he be willing to marry Xiao Yezi to someone else.
"Brother Yuan, what's wrong with you?" Ye Mingming ran up and took Zhang Yuan's hand and asked distressedly.
Zhang Yuan let Ye Mingming hold her hand, looked at her, didn't say a word, just shed tears.
After living for so many years, this is the first time Ye Mingming has seen Zhang Yuan cry.
"Dad, what did you say to Brother Ah Yuan!" Ye Mengming turned her head to blame Master Ye, and after speaking, she actually saw her father and wiped her tears.
Ye Mengming looked at her father blankly, and then looked at Ah Yuan who was crying in the rain, at this moment, she knew that she and Ah Yuan's brother had no chance.
for they have all resigned themselves to their fate.
"Xiao Yezi, in the future, we can't go to see the lanterns together, and we can't go to Lao Fu Ji to eat hot noodles together.
In the future, we ...... "Ah Yuan stretched out his hand and gently wiped away Ye Mingming's tears, but just after wiping it, tears poured out again.
"Brother Yuan......" Ye Mingming hugged Zhang Yuan's waist with both hands, and the whole person leaned on his arms and cried.
Zhang Yuan's hands never hugged Ye Mingming, because he was incompetent, and he couldn't even keep the person he liked.
For a long time, Ye Mingming let go of Zhang Yuan, and this release is a lifetime.
The next day, Ye Mengming followed Master Ye to the manor, and along the way, Zhang Yuan followed far behind, and Ye Mingming never dared to look back.
Ye Mingming followed Master Ye into the manor, and saw a young man in white standing in the manor, the young man was sixteen or seventeen years old like Brother Ah Yuan, and his appearance was better than Ah Yuan, and he was more noble, lacking the gentleness and kindness of Brother Ah Yuan.
"Li Gongzi, this is the old man's only daughter, Ye Mingming." Master Ye saluted to the young man in white and said respectfully.
"Hello Miss Ye, my name is Li Wenxuan." The young man in white looked at Ye Mingming and pulled out a very graceful smile.
"Li Gongzi is good." Ye Mingming said flatly, no matter how good this person is, he will not have a good brother, she is not interested.
"Miss Ye doesn't seem to be very happy." Li Wenxuan asked gently.
"Not really." Ye Mingming looked at Li Wenxuan's smile and felt inexplicably disgusted.
"Master Ye is fortunate, Master Ye is busy with affairs, so let's go back first." Li Wenxuan was deflated by Ye Mingming, and said to Master Ye.
"Yes." Master Ye turned around to leave, and Ye Mingming also walked along.
"You stayed to take care of Li Gongzi, he was injured and it was inconvenient." When Master Ye said this, the fists in his sleeves were clenched, and the short nails were filled into the flesh.
"Daddy......" Ye Mengming wanted to refuse, but seeing her father's ugly face, she had to deflated the words of refusal.
"Good." Master Ye saw that Ye Mingming compromised, he turned around and left, not daring to stay longer.
Ye Mingming stood there stunned, watching her father leave, slowly unable to see.
"Miss Ye want to sit down?" Li Wenxuan looked at Ye Mingming and asked gently.
"No, I don't." Ye Mingming directly refused, for her, it was this Li Gongzi who made her unable to be with Brother Ah Yuan, he was a bad person.
"Miss Ye seems to be very hostile to me?" Li Wenxuan asked with a smile with squinted eyes.
Ye Mingming suddenly only felt a chill in her back, obviously this person was laughing, but she felt the danger, so she said very unhappily: "This manor was built for me by my father, why did you live here?" ”
She pouted like a child with candy snatched, and she looked at the man with a helpless smile and some smugness.
"It turns out that this is your manor, no wonder the outside of the yard is full of peach groves, and after a while, the peach blossoms will bloom, it must be very beautiful." Li Gongzi looked at Ye Mingming and said gently.
"That's, not only that, but there are hot springs and mergroves in the back mountains, which are even more beautiful in winter." Ye Mingming said very proudly, but she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, the feeling of danger was gone.
I don't know why, she feels that Brother Yuan's matter must not be mentioned in front of this Li Gongzi.
"The manor designed by the girl is really beautiful, and it can also be seen that the girl is a person with a blue heart." Li Gongzi praised.
"A must." After Ye Mingming finished speaking, he saw some people dressed as guards coming in, and from a distance, he smelled blood.
